Chapter 3916 - 3904: I’ll Make Sure to Beat You Into Submission
Chapter 3916: Chapter 3904: I’ll Make Sure to Beat You Into Submission
"You really nailed it, you guessed right." Ma Jun said with a smile.
"Lin Yi, are you sure you’re okay?" Zhou Li sounded worried.
"Just a few punks, nothing to worry about, you all keep your distance from me to avoid getting involved."
"Alright."
Lin Yi got up, opened the door, and saw the four people standing outside.
"What are you doing here?"
"Journalist comrade, what happened earlier was a misunderstanding, I’m here to talk to you and hopefully clear it up." Mao Hai Long said cheerfully.
"This matter is already settled, what’s there to misunderstand?"
"Actually, what happened earlier was due to my poor judgment, not intentionally drugging them, but fortunately it turned out well in the end, so everyone’s happy."
"Even if everyone’s happy, it has nothing to do with you, right?"
"I know, I just wanted to explain to you, so let’s just drop it, I’m a rural doctor, life’s tough for me too."
"Life’s tough for you? That doesn’t seem quite right, does it?" Lin Yi said with a smile:
"Ma Shengxing quit because you drove him away, threatening his family. And Pan Yongbing’s cow you treated ended up dead, he asked you for compensation, you not only refused but beat him up instead, isn’t that a bit too tyrannical?"
Having his actions pointed out directly, Mao Hai Long looked embarrassed.
He didn’t expect Lin Yi to have investigated his affairs so clearly.
"I admit I was at fault, and I’ll definitely correct it in the future. I swear it won’t happen again, or may heaven strike me down if I lie."
With that, Mao Hai Long took a bag from Zhao Tonghai’s hand.
"It’s our first meeting, I didn’t bring much, these are just a small token of sincerity for you to take."
Lin Yi glanced inside and saw stacks of cash, feeling quite weary of such a routine.
"I don’t want a single cent of this money, and there’s no compromise on this matter."
Mao Hai Long’s face turned sinister, didn’t expect Lin Yi to refuse the money, leaving them no option but to resort to force.
"Journalist comrade, why are you doing this? Aren’t you working for money too? Now that it’s in front of you, is there any reason not to take it?"
"Money is a good thing, wouldn’t everyone want it? But not all money can be earned, everything must be done with a clear conscience, don’t you think?"
Mao Hai Long picked up on Lin Yi’s sarcastic tone, clearly insulting him.
"If that’s how it is, I won’t hold back."
Mao Hai Long felt around his pocket, took out a folding knife, and pointed it at Lin Yi.
"I’m telling you, I didn’t come here to negotiate, today you must hand over the recordings or I’ll kill you!"
Seeing the knife in Mao Hai Long’s hand, Zhou Li was startled, and Ma Jun quickly stood up.
"What are you doing? I’ll call the police right now, none of you can escape!"
Lin Yi kept his hands behind his back, gesturing at Ma Jun.
This small scene was something he could handle alone, no need for the police, probably less effective than handling it himself.
Mao Hai Long and the three others didn’t notice Lin Yi’s hand movements, still pointing the knife at him.
"Brother, I don’t want this either, just trying to make a living, give me a break this time, pretend nothing happened, take all this money, if it’s not enough, say so and I’ll add more."
"As I said, this isn’t about money, even if you point a knife at me, it’s no use."
"Then don’t blame me for being rude."
Mao Hai Long pushed against Lin Yi.
Lin Yi sat down on the ground, then got up and charged at Mao Hai Long, engaging in a tussle.
The other three saw things weren’t right and moved in to help.
Lin Yi dealt with four of them, using his strength cleverly, not suffering a loss, but to outsiders, he looked like the one being bullied.
This situation went on for a minute or two, Lin Yi felt it was time, no longer intending to toy with them.
"You’re quite the troublemaker, if I don’t show you my strength, you won’t know my power!"
Mao Hai Long got a bit carried away, solving Lin Yi became the main focus.
"Damn, let’s get him!"
Mao Hai Long beckoned, charging first, having gauged Lin Yi’s ability, no longer afraid.
But this time, Lin Yi didn’t hold back!
Delivered a kick, Mao Hai Long had no chance to react, body flew backward, hitting the door behind him.
"Damn it, Brother Long, what’s going on!"
"Got careless just now, don’t just stand there, get him!"
The other three rushed forward, trying to avenge Mao Hai Long.
Lin Yi used the same technique, giving each a kick, taking all four down, they sat clutching their stomachs, couldn’t even stand.
All four were dumbfounded, just fighting back and forth, how did this guy suddenly get so fierce?
"Brother Jun, was it all recorded?"
"Let me check."
Ma Jun took out the hidden micro camera from its concealed spot, checking its content.
"Got it all recorded."
"Edit out the part of me hitting them, just keep the part of them hitting me, that’s the one we’ll air."
Huh?
Mao Hai Long’s group was baffled.
What’s this about? Starting to play with edits now?
"You’ve got some clever ideas, now we can use it as evidence."
"That’s what I meant."
After saying that, Lin Yi looked at Mao Hai Long and the others.
"Honestly, I knew you were coming, everything’s as I predicted, just played a scene with you to gather more evidence."
Mao Hai Long stared wide-eyed and open-mouthed, speechless for a moment, isn’t a bad guy’s life worth anything?
"Now let’s talk about the follow-up plans, we’re reporting to the police tomorrow, getting them involved, you’d better cooperate, confess all your illegal acts honestly, admit your mistakes and compensate Pan Yongbing. But don’t worry, the law is fair and just, these mistakes aren’t fatal, penalties won’t be excessive."
"Don’t push it too far!"
Mao Hai Long gripped the knife again, glaring at Lin Yi, looking for an opportunity.
"You really don’t fear death huh!"
Lin Yi raised his leg and kicked Mao Hai Long’s wrist, knocking the dagger out of his hand.
He bent down, grabbed Mao Hai Long by the hair, lifting his head up.
"If the four of you aren’t satisfied, I can give you another chance, let’s go outside to a spacious area and I’ll beat you till you’re convinced."
