People in the Republic of China era began to rise from industry.

"Why aren't you using your gun?!"

"You fucking sent people with knives to attack others, like dockworkers fighting for territory?"

In a small alley not far from the specialty store, Lin Fang's eyes were wide with anger, wishing he could strangle Cui Sihai right in front of him.

Watching Lin Yi being put into the police car, Lin Fang felt like he wanted to just smash his head against a car and die.

This is a matter of life and death.

Now that Lin Yi is alive, the only one who can die is him.

The reason this happened is all because of that bastard Cui Sihai, who had a gun but didn't use it.

With so many people, if they had used guns, Lin Yi would have been dead eight times over!

Are you genuinely stupid or just pretending?

Cui Sihai also looked indignant.

"Don't you know who Lin Andao is?"

"An old hand in the business, he has countless friends in the underworld, not to mention his long-standing friendship with Du Yuesheng."

"If I don't turn this into a gangster feud and lose my temper, and end up shooting him, even Mr. Zhang won't be able to protect me!"

He did report this matter to Zhang Xiaolin.

Initially, the plan was simply to have Zhang Xiaolin restrain the people from Andao Company after the matter was settled, in order to avoid trouble.

As a result, Zhang Xiaolin gave him an idea.

They said they'd just make it look like manslaughter and hand someone over to him.

He could also use this opportunity to step in and act as a peacemaker to quell the situation.

Otherwise, if it were a genuine conspiracy to assassinate him, he would be in a difficult position due to his lack of justification.

Cui Sihai agreed wholeheartedly and immediately did as instructed.

At this moment, his words left Lin Fang speechless, and Cui Sihai, who was equally annoyed by the mess, was still not satisfied.

"Also, didn't you say he only had a few ordinary bodyguards around him?"

"But what's up with that bastard in the white shirt? He could take on more than ten of them!"

"If it weren't for him, this matter would have been settled long ago!"

"That's his assistant. I didn't know he was so skilled."

Who would have thought that the guy who always had a smile on his face was actually the real master?

The two complained to each other, and Lin Fang, whose momentum had unconsciously subsided, quickly calmed down.

"Brother Sihai, things have come to this point, there's no use complaining here."

"Let's talk about what to do next."

As he spoke, Lin Fang looked up at the sky and sighed, saying, "If there is no other way, I can only leave Shanghai and become a fugitive."

"When the time comes, you can push all the blame onto me, and with Mr. Zhang stepping in to mediate on your behalf, there shouldn't be any problems."

Cui Sihai looked at him and suddenly laughed, "Brother Lin, I do have a solution."

"However, you'll have to cooperate with me properly."

Hearing this, Lin Fang inexplicably had a bad feeling...

Uncle Nan arrived at the police station to bail him out.

Lin Yi didn't know the specifics of how it was done.

In short, the people who were arrested were released immediately.

His advanced studies came to an end in just two hours.

Upon seeing Lin Yi unharmed, Uncle Nan breathed a sigh of relief before asking, "Young Master, what exactly happened?"

"Lin Fang is the one who wants to harm me, and he must have done what happened to my father as well."

Upon hearing this, Uncle Nan looked astonished.

After a moment, he shook his head, not asking Lin Yi how he came to this conclusion, but simply saying with certainty, "It's impossible that Lin Fang did what Mr. Lin did."

"My husband and I are both aware of the number of people he has gathered over the past two years."

"They're just a few hangers-on who're not good enough for this kind of thing."

This situation is consistent with Lin Yi's previous judgment.

A seasoned veteran like Lin Andao would never unconditionally trust Lin Fang simply because of a family relationship.

However, Lin Yi disagreed with Uncle Nan's use of this as a reason to deny his judgment.

"He's not good at it, but he can collude with outsiders, just like this time."

Lin Yi had completely sorted out this matter from beginning to end while experiencing life inside the iron fence.

Those knife-wielders today, you could tell they were gang members just by their attire.

Moreover, they were dressed neatly, definitely not some loosely organized small gang.

Since it's targeting me, they must be aware of my identity.

To dare to take action under such circumstances is definitely not something Lin Fang could simply hire by spending some money.

Therefore, there is only one answer: those who can instruct these people, even if they are not the real masterminds, are at least partners.

"By the way, Uncle Nan, have you inquired about where those people came from?"

"I've inquired; he's a disciple of Renlu, Cui Sihai's man."

After saying that, Uncle Nan saw that Lin Yi looked blank and realized that he had forgotten that Lin Yi didn't understand these messy things about gangs.

He explained, "Renlu is a company organized by Zhang Xiaolin, and Renlu disciples are Zhang Xiaolin's disciples."

Lin Yi suddenly realized.

Renlu didn't know.

However, the three tycoons of Shanghai, Du Yuesheng, Huang Jinyong, and Zhang Xiaolin, are mentioned in middle school history textbooks.

The fact that these three individuals could have their names recorded in a thin history textbook means they were no ordinary gang leaders.

Therefore, the whole thing is a perfect closed loop.

Even though Zhang Xiaolin didn't personally handle this matter, it still exerted his influence as one of the three tycoons.

"Let's not talk about this anymore. Once we find Lin Fang, everything will be clear."

Uncle Nan suggested.

When Lin Fang's name was mentioned, a hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

Although he didn't know how Lin Yi was so sure that Lin Fang was behind it.

But there's no need to ask.

Because Lin Yi had absolutely no need to frame this guy who eats at home but shits in the wild.

Lin Yi was arranged to go home, while Uncle Nan said he was going to meet Cui Sihai.

Lin Yi didn't mention going along.

He wasn't interested in the kind of negotiations and clashes that involve gangsters.

Once the inside story is clear, we can solve the problem directly.

It's only fair to reciprocate. Since he dared to let someone kill him, it's reasonable for me to offer him a proper prayer for his soul.

As for Zhang Xiaolin...

Thinking of this 'important person' he had never met, Lin Yi's fingers, which were resting on his knees, began to twitch rapidly.

"Zhang Xiaolin".

He unconsciously murmured Zhang Xiaolin's name, and Fang Chang, who had been lazily slumped in the passenger seat, suddenly became energetic.

He straightened his back and suddenly turned his head.

Looking at him excitedly, she said, "Want to do it? I'll even pay you!"

Lin Yi: ...

confirmed.

This guy isn't crazy.

Clearly, this is a terminal form of mental illness—a pervert!

He rubbed his forehead, wondering whether keeping Fang Chang, this freakish expert, by his side was a blessing or a curse.

It's very difficult for normal people to control such abnormal individuals.

While pondering the matter and weighing the pros and cons of eliminating Zhang Xiaolin, Lin Yi, feeling the issue was complex, said, "No rush, let's wait for Uncle Nan's news."

Zhang Xiaolin is a big shot.

At least that's how it is for him right now.

Leaving aside the difficulty of killing Zhang Xiaolin.

Once you do this and people become suspicious of you, it won't be easy to clean up the mess.

Therefore, even if Zhang Xiaolin is to be killed, it needs to be planned carefully...
