"OK then."

In the end, Xu Bao obediently got out of the car.

"Miko, you..."

Lin Yunhai had just opened his mouth when Qiu Meizi interrupted him.

“I’m not Xu Bao, don’t give me that nonsense. I said I’d stay with you, and I will stay with you. I won’t get off the bus no matter what you say.”

Qiu Meizi is just as stubborn as Xu Bao, and you can't coax her the same way you would coax Xu Bao.

"Miko, listen to me first. The goods from the military region are too important. If neither of us is at the arsenal, who knows if this batch of goods will be sabotaged?"

“Since those people reported me and got me taken away, they will definitely come to the arsenal to cause trouble while I am being taken away.”

"The arsenal is our life's work; you must protect it."

"And another thing, don't you believe me? I knew this day would come, would I not have made all the necessary arrangements beforehand?"

He never fights a battle he's not confident of winning.

He dared to obediently follow the other party away because he knew that the other party wouldn't dare to do anything to him.

Even if they were to interrogate him, he wasn't someone these people could interrogate.

As for the possibility of being forced to confess, these people would be even less likely to do so. Not to mention his identity, even the big shots he sells weapons to wouldn't allow such a thing to happen.

"Listen to me, while I'm gone, the arsenal is in your care. Keep a close eye on the goods from the military region, and make sure nothing goes wrong. As for me, you don't need to worry about me at all; these people won't dare to do anything to me for the time being."

In the end, Qiu Meizi was also coaxed out of the car by him.

With those two troublemakers gone, the burly man with the thick beard breathed a sigh of relief and his attitude towards Lin Yunhai improved somewhat.

Lin Yunhai was taken directly to the military compound in the center of the provincial capital.

As soon as he entered the courtyard, soldiers rushed over and rudely tried to lock his hands.

"Please be gentle, my hands are very valuable. If you hurt them, there will be many people who will not let you off the hook."

Throughout the entire ordeal, Lin Yunhai remained calm and cooperated perfectly with whatever the other party did, leaving the burly man with the bushy beard no chance to find a reason to beat him up.

"Now that you've come to this place, do you think you'll still receive any good treatment?"

The burly man with the thick beard grinned excitedly, fantasizing that he could finally give Lin Yunhai a good beating.

However, Lin Yunhai quickly dispelled his idea.

“I know you want to take action against me, but you should think carefully. The fact that I can cooperate with the military region in Beiping means that they value my abilities highly.”

"If something were to happen to me here, like an injured hand or body, and I were no longer able to cooperate with the military region, who do you think the military region would blame?"

The bearded man was filled with regret.

He should have given Lin Yunhai a good beating before Lin Yunhai even opened his mouth.

If you take him that way, he can still offer some explanation.

But now he really couldn't take action, because Lin Yunhai had already explained the pros and cons. If he took action, he would be going against the military region.

With nowhere to vent his anger, the burly man with the bushy beard felt extremely uncomfortable and angrily said, "Lock him in jail first."

Upon hearing this, one of the soldiers asked in a low voice, "Should we use torture?"

The bearded man rolled his eyes at the soldier and sneered, "You can try it. If anything happens, I'll take care of your family."

Upon hearing this, the soldier, no longer impulsive, silently pulled Lin Yunhai to the prison.

Because they were unsure of the higher-ups' attitude towards Lin Yunhai, the soldiers placed him in a medium-sized cell to make him more comfortable.

Having lived two lives, this was his first time in prison, and the experience was truly unique.

After a day of swaying in the car, Lin Yunhai was exhausted and immediately fell asleep, completely oblivious to his current predicament.

When Lin Yunhai woke up, it was already dark. There was only a dim light in the cell, which made him feel lonely.

After getting used to the hustle and bustle, this feeling made him very uncomfortable. He felt a sense of emptiness inside, and he felt lonely and isolated.

Fortunately, those who captured him wouldn't leave him alone for long; not long after he woke up, someone came to see him.

However, the person who came was a complete stranger, someone he didn't know at all.

"Lin Yunhai, we've finally met."

The other person, acting as if they were old friends, sat down opposite him and started talking to him.

Lin Yunhai raised an eyebrow and asked, "Who are you? Do we know each other?"

Hearing his words, the visitor was clearly displeased.

But then he realized that the two of them had never met before, so he took the initiative to introduce himself: "Since it's our first meeting, let me introduce myself. My name is Qi Yuan, and I am the director of the Honghe Arsenal."

"Oh, so you're Qi Yuan! You're the one who reported me for treason?"

Seeing that Lin Yunhai showed no surprise, Qi Yuan said unhappily, "What I said is true. Didn't you sell weapons to foreigners?"

"Lin Yunhai, I admit you are a capable person who can bring the Yellow River Arsenal back to life, but you are too greedy. You dare to sell weapons to foreigners at this time. Calling you a traitor is not wrong at all."

"Well, everything you said is right."

Lin Yunhai was too lazy to explain anything to the other party, so he simply agreed with whatever the other party wanted to say.

But Qi Yuan didn't want that kind of agreement; he wanted Lin Yunhai to look terrified.

How can a traitor remain so calm after his true colors have been exposed?

"Lin Yunhai, do you think I can't bring you down, or do you think you can turn the tables?"

"I think I'm fine with anything."

The reason he obediently followed me to the prison was because he knew he would be released without charge and would have access to higher-ranking figures.

Don't ask him where his confidence comes from; it's because his grandfather and father won't let him go unchecked.

"You're too naive. I know you have an extraordinary background, but I'm not the only one targeting you, so you're destined not to get out this time."

Qi Yuan couldn't stand Lin Yunhai's nonchalant attitude, so he couldn't help but reveal some things to him.

Lin Yunhai deliberately met with Qi Yuan today in order to find out from him who was targeting him.

Seeing that he had finally broken down, he asked, "Then who is the person behind me targeting me?"

"Of course I want to know, but I won't tell you."

Qi Yuan almost blurted it out, but realized his mistake at the last moment and quickly changed the subject.

"Lin Yunhai, don't waste your time. I won't tell you who that person is. Just wait to die. If you hadn't suddenly appeared, my arsenal wouldn't have had to go out of business and face bankruptcy. So, your current predicament is entirely your own fault."
