Chapter 91

Chapter 91 - Intentional Injury to the Soul.

“One month ago, was it near the time when I returned to my hometown?”

“Pretty much, yes. Xu Lin, you don’t like the smell of smoke, right?”

“Yeah.”

Xu Lin nodded, and Ma Zhiyu also extinguished his cigarette, then continued speaking.

“After Li Bin and I split up to surf the internet, it was already past 8 o’clock in the evening. Coincidentally, that day, my parents went back to our hometown, so I decided to spend the night there again.”

“But just as I entered the internet cafe and got a private room, 7 or 8 people barged in, saying they wanted the room and asked me to leave.”

“The leader of those people was Qian Wan, and one of the two girls with him was Lu Man.”

“I was scared at the time, after all, there were a bunch of people, and two of them even had tattoos, looked very shabby. I planned to leave.”

“But when Qian Wan saw me playing League of Legends, he stopped me and said they needed one more person for a 5v5 match, and asked me to join them.”

“We played two matches in the end. I made up an excuse saying it was late to go home, my parents would worry, and intended to leave. But Qian Wan insisted that Lu Man should accompany me on the way home.”

“Then I escorted Lu Man home, and on the way... she told me a lot of things. She’s actually not Qian Wan’s girlfriend, just working with him.”

Speaking of this, Ma Zhiyu glanced outside and found that Lu Man was still on the railing, looking at her phone, leaving them enough space.

“They are a team of telecom fraudsters. Lu Man is from the neighboring county and came to work in Linshui. Seeing that there was a job where one could make money with a computer without any educational requirements, she applied for an interview.”

“Who would have thought it was a fraud team? Coincidentally, the team needed a female voice, and they also seized her identity and obtained information about her parents.”

“She had to stay in the team and work with them. After a few months, she was earning 5,000 to 6,000 yuan every month, much more than a regular job.”

“At first, she was happy, but half a month later, a branch of their team was caught by the police. Their team was fine, but she became afraid and wanted to leave.”

“But her parents were still there, and she had no freedom. Most of the time, she was under surveillance, and going out meant being accompanied by many people.”

“That day, finally, she found an opportunity, so she asked me to help her.”

“Do you believe this?” Li Bin slapped his thigh, this plot sounds like something from a movie, definitely fake!

“No, no, I was also scared. Maybe they wanted to pull me in, but later I found out that nothing happened.”

“Later, I occasionally chatted with Lu Man on QQ, and gradually we got to know each other a lot.”

“Report to the police directly, no matter what the situation, I’ll face it with you.” Lu Man lifted her head, her eyes firmly fixed on Ma Zhiyu.

“But you’ll be implicated that way.”

“I was deceived too, and I’m not the organizer anyway. For this kind of fraud, it’s at most 2 or 3 years. Are you not willing to wait for me? By then, you’ll have graduated and become an adult.”

“No... that’s not possible!”

“You two calm down. How about this, give me the address.”

“Xu Lin, don’t think about calling the police, you’ll harm Lu Man!” Ma Zhiyu shouted directly at him, and Xu Lin sneered.

“If I wanted to trick you, would I need to do this? I’ll just call the police and have you both taken back! You’ll confess tonight, and tomorrow we’ll arrest that gang!”

“...Xu Lin, you’re clever, do you know anything?” Ma Zhiyu felt Xu Lin was unusually calm today, suddenly wondering if he had some sort of plan.

“I have some ideas. First, tell me about the situation of this gang, and I’ll analyze it a bit.”

“Is it okay? Lu Man?”

“Yeah, this young man seems to have some tricks up his sleeve.”

Later, Ma Zhiyu and Lu Man explained the situation to him, which gave Li Bin goosebumps.

“Do you mean they still have crossbows?”

“Yeah, that’s indeed a point to be careful about,” Xu Lin said. Although he has light-footed techniques, dodging crossbows is still impossible.

“You’re not thinking of stirring up trouble, are you?”

“No, how could I? I’m not a superhero. I’ll figure something out for you.”

“But I’ll be going over officially in a few days. If you can’t find a way, I hope you can take care of Lu Man for me.”

“I have a few kids to take care of myself, you’re still a kid,” Lu Man teased him.

“Hehe, then why do you like this kid?” Ma Zhiyu chimed in, putting his arm around her.

“Annoying!”

Xu Lin and Li Bin exchanged glances, thinking, damn, should we report this guy for deliberately hurting their fragile hearts with dog food!

But a few seconds later, Xu Lin thought of his own family members, and his mood recovered. In the end, only Li Bin’s injured world remained complete!
