Chapter 2353: Chapter 2354: The Truth Behind the Undetected Substances
Hearing Lin Yi’s threat, the Li brothers imdiately changed their faces.
“You’ve got so money now, so your temper has gotten bigger too.” Li Chenghu waved at Lin Yi.
“Let’s go outside to talk, there are too many people here.”
Lin Yi dusted his clothes, “Then let’s go outside to talk.”
“Son…”
Wang Cuiping and Zhao Quanfu were a bit worried.
“Don’t go out and fight on New Year’s.”
“It’s alright, we’re just going to chat, will be back soon, you guys stay here.”
Leaving those words behind, the three of them went out one after the other.
In the courtyard, Lin Yi saw a minivan parked outside.
When the three n ca out, the van’s door opened, and four more people descended, but all of them had unfamiliar faces; it seed they were not from Wangjia Village.
“Did you make everything clear?”
The speaker was a fatty with a rather clean appearance, who glanced at Lin Yi with the corner of his eye as he spoke, apparently not taking him seriously.
“Their family doesn’t want to rent, and they wanted to talk to us, so I dragged him out.” Li Chenglong said.
The fatty glanced at Lin Yi, took a dagger out of his pocket, and weighed it in his hand.
“Kid, what do you an? Do you think the price is too low and you’re reluctant to rent to us?”
“Where are you from? What has this got to do with you?”
“I’m from the county, my brother-in-law works in the governnt, specifically in charge of these rural matters. Don’t complain about the low price, all the land I lease out is at this price. Let’s not have any unpleasantness during the New Year.”
“And then? If I don’t rent it to you, are you going to stab with that knife?”
“Don’t think that I don’t have the guts. Earlier in Ma Gou Village, I already ‘educated’ two people. Don’t think I’m just bluffing, if I didn’t have so skills, I wouldn’t be out here doing this.”
Lin Yi felt around his lower back and pulled out his Defense Master Dagger.
“Co on, let’s see today who can stab who to death.”
Everyone was quite surprised; they hadn’t expected Lin Yi to pull out a dagger.
“Ha ha…”
The fatty laughed, “Look at this kid, quite funny he is, taking out a knife to scare .”
The others also laughed, and Li Chenglong said:
“Lin Yi, I grew up with your mom, so our relationship is quite close. You don’t need to take things so seriously. You know what this society is like. I know you’ve made so money in the last two years and have established yourself outside, but in front of those with power and privilege, your money just isn’t enough. Don’t embarrass yourself, getting beaten for nothing is not worth it.”
“You do indeed have power and influence, but we still have to be reasonable, right?”
“Shit, your mom’s reason!”
It seed that Lin Yi had irritated the fatty, who cursed and threw a punch at him.
Lin Yi dodged to the side and grabbed one of his lapels, then stabbed with the dagger!
Ah—
The fatty let out a miserable cry; his features contorted in pain as he staggered to the ground, blood covering his body.
The Li brothers were dumbfounded; nobody had expected such an event.
“You’ve caused a big problem, you can’t afford to compensate even if you are ruined!”
Lin Yi felt in his pocket and pulled out his military officer’s ID.
“As long as you’re not blind, you can recognize this thing. I’m telling you today, even if I stabbed with this knife, it’d be in vain. If you dare to do this again in the future, one phone call from can get you all locked up.”
The shiny ID scared them stiff.
Ordinary people have a natural fear of these things; just seeing them can be frightening.
“Get lost.”
“Go… hurry up…”
The fatty endured the pain and ordered his people to carry him to the van, and they left Wangjia Village in a panic.
Lin Yi found a place to wipe the blood off the Dagger, then went back into the house.
“Brother, how did you deal with those guys?” Ning Yue asked.
“Gave them a good beating, now they’ll behave. Doubt they’ll dare to co again.”
“Why resort to a beating to make them behave?”
“People take kindness for weakness, horses that are too gentle get ridden. With these kinds of people, if you don’t hit them hard, they won’t learn.” Qu Xuanhe said.
“That makes sense.”
After teaching the Li brothers a lesson, the atmosphere at ho beca even more lively.
They had a al at noon, and it wasn’t until after three in the afternoon that they prepared to leave for Yang City.
As they left, the villagers filled their car with all sorts of goods, from pork ribs to chicken and duck eggs.
When he returned to Yang City that day, Lin Yi didn’t rest; he t with Wu Zhaoyou for a al to solidify their relationship, not returning ho until after ten at night.
For the next two days, Lin Yi wasn’t in a hurry to leave; he spent a few days accompanying Wang Cuiping, until the eighth day when he returned to Zhong Hai.
After this trip back, Lin Yi had no social obligations and could focus on his own affairs.
And for most office workers, the New Year holiday had already ended, and everything had to return to normal.
Ring, ring, ring—
The next morning after eight, while Lin Yi was washing up, he received a call from Qiu Yuluo.
“Is there a situation?”
“The substances in the box of dicine you gave to the unit that weren’t detected are a very special kind of substituted amphetamine. If used in large amounts, they can lead to hallucinations and cause permanent ntal damage – with a very slim chance of recovery.”
Hearing this news, Lin Yi’s face turned ugly, as if he were ready to eat soone.
He would not allow such a thing to happen to Ji Qingyan.
Especially at such a crucial ti.
“What else? Keep talking.”
“The dicine in this box, produced by Baiyun Pharmaceutical, was checked again after purchasing several boxes from the market. None of that substance was found, so we can preliminarily confirm that this dicine is counterfeit, tampered with by soone.”
“The dicine ca from a man nad Sanda Tai Lang, the issue probably lies with him.”
“I was about to discuss this with you; there is indeed sothing off about this man.”
Qiu Yuluo paused, “I’ve checked his background and so far can’t find any direct connection to the Japanese officials. However, in the last five years, he has routinely attended several gatherings and these etings are organized by people with one thing in common – they are Freemasons.”
Lin Yi’s expression suddenly changed.
“Are you suggesting that this Sanda Tai Lang guy is from the Freemasons?”
“Highly likely.” Qiu Yuluo continued,
“I plan to deploy soone to infiltrate his residence in Japan soon, to look for any traces that can confirm his identity.”
Lin Yi was silent for a few seconds.
“You don’t have to handle this; I’ll take care of it myself!”
