Chapter 2047: Master Lin Will Always Be Master Lin

“Just a bullet. It’s nothing to worry about.”
Lin Yi said calmly.
“And if I didn’t have some skills, that old man Wei Yihua wouldn’t be so afraid of me.”
Both Bai Yongshou and Wang Shuguang were pale, their legs weakening beneath them.
“Why are you doing this?!” Bai Yongshou finally voiced his confusion.
“If you really wanted to catch us, you could have done it at the nightclub that day. Why wait until now?”
“Actually, I did want to take action that day,” Lin Yi replied, “but my superior said that the arrest operation was a joint effort between two precincts. If I acted on my own, it wouldn’t look good. So, I let you live for a few more days.”
The realization dawned on both men. Now, they understood that Lin Yi wasn’t afraid of them at all.
He simply had other plans in motion!
“Do you have any other questions? I can answer them all, so you can die with a clear understanding.”
The two stood there in silence.
At this point, there was no use in saying anything further.
The man before them clearly had no intention of letting them go.
“Since you’re not speaking, I’ll take it that you have no more questions.” Lin Yi tilted his head slightly, speaking in a calm tone.
“Get in the car. I’ll take you to have a good meal as a reward for turning yourselves in. After this, you won’t get to eat like this again.”
The two men obediently followed Lin Yi to his Land Cruiser.
It wasn’t that they didn’t want to resist, but after seeing Lin Yi dodge the bullet, they knew they stood no chance.
The three of them got into the car, and Lin Yi drove back toward Zhonghai.
The country road was bumpy, but Bai Yongshou was surprisingly calm.
It was only now that he truly understood why Wei Yihua feared the man sitting next to him so much.
Setting aside his identity as a businessman, Lin Yi’s influence in other areas was likely far greater than he had imagined.
Combined with his formidable abilities, Bai Yongshou realized that he was no more than a grasshopper in front of a lion.
Bai Yongshou looked down at his hands.
Not only was Lin Yi taking him out for a meal, but he hadn’t even handcuffed him. The level of confidence this man had in himself was staggering.
At the same time, the teams from both precincts settled into their seats, ready for the meeting to begin.
“Let’s keep this meeting short and to the point,” Liu Chunjiang began.
“A few days ago, the operation to arrest Bai Yongshou failed. Have you both reviewed the reasons for the failure?”
He glanced at Han Zhongyu. “Especially your team. You almost made a fatal error.”
“The fault lies with us,” Han Zhongyu admitted openly. “Our team lacked the necessary experience, which led to the mistake. I’ve already severely reprimanded them, and it won’t happen again.”
“This issue wasn’t entirely your fault. It’s not something that anyone would easily handle without experience,” Liu Chunjiang said, not unfairly.
“Even someone like Ling Han might have faced the same challenge, and possibly with even less success.”
He wasn’t playing favorites with Han Zhongyu.
It was just the reality of the situation.
Let alone Ling Han, even if Li Xianghui went, the outcome would be the same, and he might not even have performed as well as Ling Han.
Besides Lin Yi, there was probably no one in either precinct capable of successfully completing this task.
“Thank you for your understanding, Director, but it was still our responsibility, and we’ll be more vigilant in the future.”
Liu Chunjiang nodded and then asked,
“What’s the plan for the next arrest operation? Do you both have any follow-up strategies?”
“We’ve developed some initial ideas, and we won’t let Bai Yongshou stay at large for long!”
Liu Chunjiang looked at Han Zhongyu approvingly. “Let’s hear your plan.”
Han Zhongyu turned his gaze to Ling Han.
“Go ahead and explain your plan.”
Ling Han stood up and said,
“After the failed operation, I immediately began planning the next steps.”
“All the major transportation routes are now sealed off, and we have enough police officers patrolling the area. If Bai Yongshou appears, he won’t escape.”
“In addition, we’ve also set up measures at fishing ports and along shipping routes to prevent him from escaping through illegal means.”
Liu Chunjiang nodded in approval. Ling Han’s approach was solid.
“Given the current situation, Bai Yongshou can only flee inland. We’ve blocked all major routes and issued a warrant for his arrest. After this meeting, I’ll personally lead the team to track him down,” Ling Han said confidently.
“Give me seven days, and I guarantee Bai Yongshou will be brought to justice!”
