Rebirth with a Space to Counterattack and Abuse the Scumbag

Evidence submitted: The scumbag has disappeared

The cold voice made Gong Lin and me stop in our tracks.

Looking back, we saw two uniformed police officers, who were eyeing us warily.

I frowned slightly. Was this just a routine check-up?

I suppressed my doubts and politely replied, "We're here to report a crime; we have important evidence to hand over to the police."

One of the policemen looked me up and down, his tone slightly contemptuous: "Report a crime? What crime? Where's the evidence?" I handed him the disk and explained, "This contains evidence of the Lu Group and Tiancheng Group colluding with officials to conduct illegal transactions." The policeman took the disk, glanced at it casually, and then tossed it back: "That's it? Just this little disk? Who knows what's on it? Maybe you forged it yourself to frame someone!"

I suppressed my anger and explained, "It's absolutely true. There are detailed transaction records inside, and..." Before I could finish, another policeman impatiently interrupted me, "Alright, alright, stop wasting our time here. We have so many cases to handle every day, how can we have time for your trivial matters? Go back now, don't cause trouble here!"

Gong Lin stepped forward, blocking my way, his tone icy: "Officer, this is no trivial matter. It concerns the illegal and criminal activities of a group. I hope you will take this seriously." His imposing presence startled the two policemen.

One of the policemen, realizing what was happening, retorted, "Even if it's true, it will take time to investigate and gather evidence. Just you wait!"

For the next few hours, we were left waiting in the police station's reception hall.

My unease grew stronger; I felt like something was wrong.

Gong Lin also noticed something was wrong. He went to the duty room and demanded in a firm tone that the police immediately launch an investigation.

After our repeated urging, the police finally sent a few people, saying they were going to Lu's Group and Tiancheng Group to investigate and collect evidence.

As I watched the police car drive away, I felt no relief, but rather a heavier weight settled over me.

Gong Lin held my hand tightly and whispered, "Don't worry, everything will be alright." I forced a smile, hoping so.

After the police car drove away, the atmosphere in the hall became even more tense, and I felt like I was having difficulty breathing.

Suddenly, the door to the duty room was pushed open, and a policeman rushed out, pale-faced and covered in sweat.

He walked straight up to us and said urgently, "No, it's gone..."

"Gone? What's gone?" My heart tightened, and an ominous premonition welled up inside me.

The policeman, panting heavily, said haltingly, "The Lu... Lu Group... and Tiancheng Group... everyone's gone! Their homes are empty! They left nothing behind!"

My mind went blank.

Ran?

How can it be?

How long has it been since we reported the case?

How did they get the news and run away?

Is it...

Is there a mole within the police station?

The thought flashed through my mind, but I dismissed it immediately.

If there's a mole in the police department, wouldn't all the evidence we submitted have been destroyed long ago?

Gong Lin's face was terribly grim. He grabbed the policeman by the collar and demanded sharply, "What's going on? Explain yourself!"

The policeman trembled with fear at Gong Lin's imposing presence, stammering, "We...we went to the Lu Group and Tiancheng Group, as well as the homes of their key members, but...but we couldn't find them! The houses were all empty! All the valuables were gone! We...we're still investigating..."

survey?

What else is there to investigate?

The people have all run away, so the clues have definitely been erased. What can we possibly find out?

I slumped back in my chair, feeling completely drained of all my strength.

Lu Zhan, you really have some clever tricks up your sleeve!

I closed my eyes, took a deep breath, and tried to calm myself down.

Lu Zhan ran away, and many of my questions from my past life remain unanswered.

What exactly does the force behind him want from me? What is so important that they would rather destroy it than not have it?

All of this remains a mystery for now.

However, now is not the time to dwell on these things.

Although Lu Zhan has run away, my life must go on.

I still have space, I still have Gong Lin, and I still have a lot to do.

I suddenly opened my eyes, a resolute glint in them.

Lu Zhan, do you think you'll get away with it just because you ran away?

I won't let you go!

I'll make you pay!

“Gong Lin,” I turned to look at Gong Lin, my tone firm, “Let’s go.”

"Where are we going?" Gong Lin looked at me, his eyes filled with worry.

"Make money!" A cold smile curled at the corner of my lips. "I want to become strong, strong enough to protect myself and those around me, strong enough that no one can hurt me anymore! I want to make those who once looked down on me and bullied me pay the price!"

I took a cloth bag out of my bag and held it tightly in my hand.

"Tomorrow, we're going to the farmers' market..."
