CH 61

As soon as One-Eyed Dragon returned to the second floor, he heard some commotion upstairs.

"San!" he shouted.

A guy dressed in colorful clothes came up. "Boss."

"What's happening on the third floor? Take some men and go check."

San led five men up, but they quickly rolled back down. One-Eyed Dragon looked down and saw a footprint on San's face, which had knocked his nose out of place.

Then the sound of his subordinates shouting came from upstairs.

"Who are you?"

"What are you doing?"

"Ouch!"

"Ah!"

Then there was the sound of heavy objects falling on the floor.

Lin Wen opened the door and asked, "What's that noise? Dragon boss, what happened?"

One-Eyed Dragon couldn't hide his expression. "It's nothing."

He angrily shouted, "Awei, Awu, take some men and catch those troublemakers upstairs. Let's see whose guts are so big."

He turned to Lin Wen and apologized, "Sheriff Lin, sorry for the disturbance. Let's continue."

As they were about to enter, they heard screams coming from upstairs. One-Eyed Dragon's subordinates, who were usually fierce killers, were falling down like dumplings from the stairs, balcony, and any possible place.

One-Eyed Dragon's face turned black. "Xudu, take some good men and go up. If you can't catch them, kill them."

Several strong men walked out of the right compartment. They didn't look as strong, but they walked steadily and had a fierce and condensed aura.

After they went upstairs, it suddenly became quiet, and they could only hear the wind.

After a while, there was a muffled groan and the sound of bones breaking, which was the sound of their own people.

One-Eyed Dragon's face became even darker. He was wondering if he should send more people up, but he was afraid of appearing useless.

Suddenly, there was a gust of wind behind him. Before he could react, Sheriff Lin pushed him away and caught a heavy kick with a bang.

When One-Eyed Dragon looked back, he realized that someone had flipped down from upstairs.

If it weren't for Sheriff Lin pushing him away in time, the strength of that kick would have broken his neck.

The assassin missed and turned around to jump off the balcony to escape.

But Lin Wen's ghostly hand grabbed her ankle and pulled her back. At the same time, several gunshots hit the balcony behind her.

When the assassin saw Lin Wen, she became angry, but Lin Wen didn't have time to explain. He used his "Spirit Cat" to completely control her body and suppress her. At the same time, he reached into the compartment with his left hand and pulled down the red curtain next to the door.

The big red curtain flashed before their eyes, and the assassin was wrapped up like a dumpling, struggling on the ground.

One-Eyed Dragon raised his hand, and all his subordinates put down their guns and bowed. "Thank you, Sheriff Lin! We were unprepared today and made some mistakes, embarrassing ourselves."

Lin Wen smiled. "It's nothing. Even if I didn't take action, Dragon boss could have dodged it. I just didn't want this thief to escape, so I took action to stop her."

One-Eyed Dragon's scar twisted. "No, I owe you a debt of gratitude. I will definitely repay you."He turned to look at the assassin, who was struggling on the ground like a rice dumpling, whimpering and crying. His anger surged, and he kicked the assassin hard in the stomach. The rice dumpling-shaped man bent into a bow shape, and a large, deeper red stain soaked into the red cloth curtain covering his head.

The one-eyed dragon was about to pull back the curtain, but Lin Wen stopped him. "Dragon boss, let's talk about business first."

The one-eyed dragon nodded. "Okay." He gritted his teeth and said, "Ah Qiang, drag him away and watch him closely! Don't move, I'll come to interrogate him personally later!"

Lin Wen smiled. "After we reach an agreement, let's use his blood to make an unbreakable oath."

Seeing the one-eyed dragon's slightly puzzled expression, he explained, "We'll use his blood to make an unbreakable oath."

The one-eyed dragon then laughed. "Good, Sheriff Lin is indeed knowledgeable and understands a lot."

With a wave of his hand, everyone walked into the private room. Only Fang Weiwei sat inside, but Lin Wen noticed something small and unnatural behind her curtain.

He immediately sat down and tried to cover up the unnatural place as much as possible, while flattening the paper box on the table into a flat circle.

Seeing the one-eyed dragon's suspicious gaze, Lin Wen smiled and explained, "In my hometown, a round paper box represents the firmness of the oath."

The one-eyed dragon didn't suspect anything and said, "Please proceed." But he didn't notice that the light behind him had changed, becoming softer and more natural.

A little brother put a camera in the corner, facing them.

Then, the formal negotiation began.

Both sides had confirmed their intentions, leaving only the issue of profit distribution.

After a round of friendly negotiations, Lin Wen seemed to reluctantly give up a part of his cut, while the one-eyed dragon seized Sheriff Lin's urgent need for money and used a large sum of money to protect his cash cow from being coveted by others.

Of course, Lin Wen couldn't give up all of his cut, which would make their relationship seem weak and lacking in cooperation. In the end, he only took 7%.

Finally, the one-eyed dragon invested 88 million and received 7% of the profit, obtaining the umbrella protection rights of Lin Wen.

Lin Wen promised that all systems, including commerce, taxation, public security, supervision, and road checkpoints, would give them the green light and let them pass unimpeded.

To show his sincerity, Lin Wen immediately called Fang Dashan and ordered him to release the fifteen people who were arrested for passing through the checkpoint. Although Fang Dashan was puzzled, he still faithfully carried out the order.

At this point, the trust between the two sides had reached its peak. The one-eyed dragon no longer had any doubts and immediately used the store owner's financial system to gather money from several of his secret accounts and transfer it to the designated account, which he then gave to Lin Wen.

Since there was no money laundering involved and he was an old customer, the store owner only charged him a 1% service fee.

The two sides cooperated happily, signed the contract together, shook hands in front of the camera, and received a copy of the video tape each.

Finally, the little brother collected some of the blood vomited by the assassin, and the one-eyed dragon and Lin Wen dipped their fingers in the blood and pressed their fingerprints onto the contract.

The ceremony ended, the oath was made, and the one-eyed dragon felt great. He thought, "Sheriff Lin is indeed knowledgeable and reliable. I must tie myself tightly to him, and I can promote this ceremony more in the future."Thus, the two reluctantly parted ways. The Cyclops cleaned up the scene and left quietly with his men.

After confirming that everyone had left, Lin Wen took out the paper box from his arms, crushed it, and lifted the effect of the "Paper Moon Suspension" spell.

Fang Weiwei stuck close to Lin Wen, her face pale and her heart still racing, but she couldn't help but smile.

During the time when the Cyclops had left, Lin Wen had already explained everything to her. Fang Weiwei had no doubts and believed him immediately.

Just as Lin Wen was about to pick up the phone in the private room, he heard a cold snort from behind. Qin Luoshuang emerged from behind the curtains.

She glanced at Fang Weiwei, then at Lin Wen, and said coldly, "Sheriff Lin is really capable, being able to deceive everyone in such a situation and using a minion to take the blame."

Feeling good about successfully acquiring a large sum of money, Lin Wen smiled and said, "This is called 'the fox replacing the prince.' It's actually just a trick. Those who have played magic know that as long as you master people's visual habits and have quick hands and feet, it's actually quite easy to do."

The moment Qin Luoshuang jumped down from the air, Lin Wen immediately recognized her from her movements.

Although he didn't know why she was here or why she was fighting with Lei Gang, this was obviously a great opportunity to gain their trust.

Of course, there was some risk involved. Qin Luoshuang herself must not be harmed, otherwise, he would definitely have bad karma. It was Lin Wen who had directly blocked Qin Luoshuang's attack and dragged her back.

If she were injured, he would not only be an accomplice but also a murderer.

The moment the red curtain was opened, Lin Wen pushed her into the private room and whispered to her, "Hide well." At the same time, he used the "Double Dragons Seize Pearl" technique to poke the eyes of a nearby minion.

With the red curtain covering them, the "fox replacing the prince" was completed.

The magic should have been successful. Aside from the parties involved, no one could see any flaws. The scene was so chaotic at the time that the Cyclops shouldn't have immediately noticed that one of his men was missing.

However, there was still risk involved. If the Cyclops was extremely perceptive and had an exceptional memory, or if he had ignored the advice and forcibly pulled the red cloth away, he would have discovered that the traitor was actually one of his own men. A careful investigation would have exposed the truth.

In that case, Lin Wen would have had to spend more good karma and use more advanced spells.

Fortunately, in the end, he only had to use a Foundation Establishment stage spell, "Paper Moon Suspension."

Compared to the gains, such consumption was completely acceptable.
