Chapter 71

"Snake and rat den! You scoundrel, your attack caused serious injury; it’s clear you’re a vicious criminal, maybe even with a criminal record! Come with me and confess honestly..." Lin Yihang’s words immediately angered the police officer.

Since putting on the police uniform, the street hooligans had shown him at least a modicum of respect, and they regularly offered him some form of tribute. This had cultivated a sense of superiority in him. How dare a mere street vendor talk back to him? Unthinkable!

However, just as he was roaring, he walked closer and saw Lin Yihang’s face. His scolding abruptly stopped, his open mouth frozen as if an egg had been stuffed into it.

It was... that great killer?

"Yes! This guy is definitely a vicious criminal! Maybe even a fugitive! A murderer who escaped from another place! Officer Li, you must interrogate him thoroughly. People like him won’t confess without being tortured!" The scar-faced man added fuel to the fire, looking at Lin Yihang with a smug expression. He didn’t notice that Officer Li’s face had already turned green.

Slap!

Just as the scar-faced man was speaking enthusiastically, Officer Li suddenly turned back and slapped him hard across the face.

"Get the hell out of here! You little scoundrel! Do you think we police officers torture suspects? You’ve been bullying around here, and we’ve had evidence against you for a long time. This time, you must have provoked him first; you deserve the beating!"

Officer Li pointed at the scar-faced man and scolded him.

The scar-faced man was stunned by the scolding, standing there in a daze. Anger quickly burned in his heart. Damn it! Although I’m a small-time hooligan, I have connections. I show respect to the police to avoid unnecessary trouble. Damn it, you’re really getting too cocky!

The scar-faced man’s face wasn’t so easy to hit. Just as he was about to react, he saw that after scolding him, Officer Li ignored him and put on a smiling face, bowing and scraping before the young man, speaking with extreme respect and even a hint of fear:

"Mr. Lin, I’m truly sorry! My brother’s eyes were blind, and I didn’t recognize you just now! These hooligans dared to provoke you, and we will definitely help you teach them a lesson!"

This sudden turn of events left the scar-faced man stunned. His anger couldn’t be vented. As a person in the underworld, he had basic judgment. Officer Li’s public apology was a complete loss of face.

This could only mean one thing: the young man in front of him wasn’t just a street vendor; he had a significant background!

The scar-faced man then noticed that Lin Yihang’s seemingly casual clothes were all designer brands. His demeanor and calmness in the face of trouble were not something ordinary people could achieve.

No wonder that little slut Tong Xiaoyan looked down on him but was willing to be with this young man... Mr. Lin... He’s a powerful second generation! To make Officer Li so submissive, he’s not just any second generation.

Damn it! I’ve kicked a steel plate! Today’s beating was in vain, and there might be more trouble to come.

Thinking this, the scar-faced man started sweating. He had no intention of challenging Officer Li anymore!

Behind him, the other police officers were initially stunned. Two of them quickly reacted—damn! Isn’t this the young Mr. Lin who beat up Chief Ma at the Yellow River People’s Restaurant? They had a look of realization and immediately came over to greet him respectfully.

These two police officers, along with Officer Li, had all witnessed the incident at the Yellow River People’s Restaurant. He first beat up Bald Da, then Chief Ma, and in the end, he wasn’t held responsible; it was said that Chief Ma even came to apologize in person... With this incident, how could they, mere small fry, dare to provoke him?

Encountering this great killer, they would be willing to put their faces in their pants, or even their mouths... as long as he was willing to lift a finger, it would be fine!

"Mr. Lin, we are truly sorry, it’s all our fault!" The two police officers who reacted first were extremely respectful.

The others, though confused, could guess that the young man was not someone to be trifled with, seeing their colleagues’ respectful demeanor. They all put on respectful smiles.

"Oh? Your fault? Weren’t you just saying I was a vicious criminal and wanted to take me to the station for investigation?" Lin Yihang naturally recognized these police officers. Knowing he had complete control, he sneered, clearly not willing to let it go.

His words left the police officers embarrassed. The others looked at Officer Li with dissatisfaction. Clearly, this was all his fault for speaking rashly without recognizing the person.

"Cough, cough! It’s a misunderstanding! The streetlights are too dim, and I didn’t recognize you just now!" Officer Li cleared his throat and laughed, trying to explain.

"Didn’t recognize me? You are the people’s police, serving the people! Shouldn’t it be the same no matter who is here? If it wasn’t me standing here today, would you have falsely accused and wronged someone?" Lin Yihang’s face turned stern as he scolded.

"Hehe, no! No!"

"How could that be! Mr. Lin, you’re exaggerating!"

"Mr. Lin, please calm down!"

The police officers were all sweating profusely, their faces filled with flattery, bowing and scraping.

Beside them, Tong Xiaoyan’s beautiful eyes were wide with amazement. This young man... Lin Yihang, what kind of background does he have? These police officers, who usually act high and mighty, were all as obedient as grandsons in front of him.

Seeing Lin Yihang’s authority, his tone wasn’t heavy, but every word made the other party sweat. At this moment, he exuded a sense of dominance. Tong Xiaoyan’s eyes were almost misty, her heart warm and melting. At the same time, she felt immense pride—this is my man!

She really wanted to announce it to the world. Hiding behind Lin Yihang, his back gave her a sense of warmth.

"Uncle Yihang is so cool! Uncle Yihang is a superhero!" The little girl had stopped crying, her eyes still teary, and she shouted in her delicate voice.

Lin Yihang turned and smiled at the little girl, then winked at Sister Tong. Turning back, his face had already returned to its cold expression.

At this moment, Sister Tong couldn’t help but smile.

"Whether I forgive you depends on this lady’s attitude. You are the patrol officers here, responsible for maintaining peace. If you fail to do your job, you are failing the vendors and residents here. Go and apologize to this lady. If she forgives you, I will forgive you!" Lin Yihang said, stepping aside to let them through.

The police officers looked at each other, feeling a sense of relief. Apologizing to a lady seemed a bit embarrassing... but this was clearly the best outcome. Dealing with a beautiful woman was much easier than dealing with that great killer, right?

Besides, did they have a choice?

In terms of physical strength, the man’s display of power at the Yellow River People’s Restaurant was enough to sweep through the entire police station.

In terms of background... damn! This was even more incomparable. Even Chief Ma had to act like a grandson in front of him. How could they, mere small fry, dare to cause any trouble? That would be courting death!
