"Ugh."
"Since I've already denied it, why are you still asking me, Director Jiang?"
"Even if they knew it was me, I still couldn't afford to pay for the street repairs."
Lin Yan sighed softly and put down the clip in his hand.
They knew the other party must have some evidence, otherwise they wouldn't have suddenly come to ask.
Denying it outright is useless; it might even cost you your good job that pays 3,000 a month.
"It really was you, just as I guessed."
"But why do you deny it?"
Director Jiang frowned slightly, clearly not realizing the crux of the problem.
"Because I don't have the money to pay for the street repairs."
"Moreover, I don't think I did anything wrong."
"The assassin approached me on his own initiative."
Lin Yan shrugged and simply decided to give up.
Repairing a street would cost at least tens of thousands of yuan, which is at least half a year's salary for me.
He didn't want to work for nothing for half a year if Director Jiang insisted on making him lose money.
Lin Yan then planned to go directly to the Divine Forging Kingdom or the Xuanwu Kingdom in a few days.
So what if it's a little dangerous? With his current strength, he's not afraid of any danger anyway.
"Losing money? Who told you that this would involve losing money?"
"You fought the assassin for the sake of the island; that's a good deed."
"Even if you accidentally damage the street, the government will compensate you; it has nothing to do with you."
Upon hearing Lin Yan's words and recalling Lin Yan's penniless state upon arriving here, Director Jiang couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Her doubts were immediately resolved.
It turns out that Lin Yan didn't admit it simply because he was afraid of taking on that so-called responsibility.
"I don't have to cover this cost?"
"You should have said so earlier, Director Jiang."
"You really scared me to death. I thought you suddenly came to ask me for money or to hold me accountable."
Lin Yan let out a long breath. He had been somewhat nervous when Director Jiang came over.
After all, he couldn't afford to lose such a large sum of money.
"So that's what you're worried about."
"You don't need to worry anymore, as long as you don't destroy the island without reason."
"You don't need to pay any money."
"Can you tell me now?"
"Who exactly fought you yesterday? Was it an assassin?"
Director Jiang smiled and nodded, his doubts about Lin Yan largely dissipated.
Now, the specific situation is that we need to clarify the problem first.
Between Lin Yan and Wu Liuqi, she definitely trusts Lin Yan more.
And Wu Liuqi is indeed working as an assassin, that's for sure.
Now we'll see. If Wu Liuqi attacked Lin Yan, then he has definitely violated the island's rules.
She needs to find a way to get rid of Wu Liuqi first.
"Yes, he's an assassin."
"But I didn't get a good look at his face, though he's very strong."
"He's at least in the top fifty of the assassin rankings."
Lin Yan nodded, but did not provide any detailed information about Plum Blossom Thirteen.
He only gave a general outline, and that was indeed the case; Lin Yan did not see Mei Hua Thirteen's true face.
"With your strength, you should have defeated her last night."
"If that's the case, why didn't you choose to kill him?"
Director Jiang frowned slightly, feeling somewhat puzzled upon hearing that an assassin ranked among the top fifty had arrived in this area.
She could tell that Lin Yan was definitely stronger than the assassin from last night.
Moreover, they were absolutely dominating the assassin the whole way.
If the other side is after Lin Yan, they certainly won't give up until they kill their mission target.
So why did Lin Yan choose to let the other party go?
"Of course I'm not that stupid, and I know that the consequences of not eliminating the root of the problem are huge."
"But the assassin's target was clearly not me, but the strongest person on Chicken Island."
"In other words, they are looking for someone."
"Since I am not that person, and I just happened to be encountered by them, there is no need for me to make enemies."
Chapter 15 Plum Blossom Eleven
"If I kill the assassin from yesterday, what if other assassins keep coming?"
"I don't think I'm capable of going against an entire assassin organization."
Lin Yan shrugged, expressing his thoughts from the previous night.
This also proves one thing: Lin Yan is definitely not someone who likes to cause trouble.
"I didn't expect that you could still think of so many things under such circumstances yesterday."
"Alright, if that's the case, then let's leave it at that for now."
"You go ahead with your work, I need to go back and think of a solution."
Director Jiang nodded, finally letting down his guard against Lin Yan.
Now that Lin Yan has admitted that he was indeed one of the participants in yesterday's events, it saves a lot of trouble.
Moreover, given the current situation, the identity of the assassin has not yet been found.
She must find and capture the person before the assassin strikes again.
"If you had told me earlier that I didn't need to pay compensation, I wouldn't have had to hide it like that."
"It seems the Pure Island Association has quite a few troublesome things to do on a daily basis."
"I originally thought that patrolling every day would be enough."
Lin Yan shook his head and sighed softly. The Pure Island Association, this organization.
It was quite different from what he had imagined.
But not many problems will arise, after all, Lin Yan's strength is there.
. . . . . .
A week later, Plum Blossom Thirteen was still not found by Director Jiang.
Even though they were outsiders, they did a very good job of concealing themselves.
However, recently, the island has been the site of several assassination attempts.
Many people were assassinated, including Wang Feng.
But none of this affected Lin Yan's business, even though he hadn't seen Mei Hua Thirteen since the last time.
However, one thing is certain: Mei Hua Thirteen did not leave Chicken Island.
As darkness fell completely, Lin Yan walked out of his house, rubbing his stomach.
Today was a day off, and school was on holiday, so he didn't set up a stall at the school gate. Instead, he rested at home for the day.
It wasn't until we ran out of food at home that we decided to go out and buy a bowl of beef noodles.
But soon, before he even reached the beef noodle stall, Lin Yan saw two figures fighting on the beach.
Lin Yan recognized one of them; it was Mei Hua Thirteen.
The other one, with wings on its back and a resemblance of 13 to 14, is 11, 13's older sister.
"What a coincidence, I can't see it, I can't see it."
"Don't cause trouble."
