Guo Yue had just taken a cup of brewed tea when the doorbell rang.
“It’s so late at night. Is it someone sending money over?” Guo Yue ran to open the door happily.
A pistol was instantly held against his forehead!
Lin Yun’s figure appeared from outside the door. His shirt was tattered and his body was covered in dirt and blood just like a zombie that had just crawled out of the grave. Lin Yun’s eyes were cold and ruthless as if they were ice that wouldn’t melt for ten thousand years.
“How come it’s you? Aren’t you dead?” Guo Yue’s pupils constricted, his face paled, and he broke out in a cold sweat.
Lin Yun didn’t answer Guo Yue’s question. He walked into the house and closed the door with a back kick. Then, a slight crackling sound came from his body, and his left fist quickly punched Guo Yue’s abdomen.
“Ahhhh—”
Guo Yue screamed as his body flew backward like a curled up prawn. He hit the wall behind him and then bounced back before his fat body fell heavily to the ground. After struggling a few times, he was in so much pain that he couldn’t get up.
This punch was just a mild outburst of anger from Lin Yun’s heart!
Lin Yun stepped forward, pointed a pistol at Guo Yue’s head, and asked in a cold voice, “Why did you frame me?”
Guo Yue supported himself with both hands on the ground and struggled to kneel up. His body trembled as he said, “My elder sister, ah no, it was Guo Yun who asked me to do it. Guo Yun said that she wanted me to kill an ordinary student. I then contacted the city’s Green Skin Gang and asked them to go to the hospital to kill you.”
“Green Skin Gang?”
“It’s a gang of outlaws formed in the city. I didn’t expect that you would kill all of the Green Skin Gang. Fearing that the matter would be exposed, I was so obsessed that I wanted to use my authority to kill you.”
As Guo Yue spoke, the flesh on his face continued to tremble. Lin Yun wondered whether he would leave a handful of lard behind when he slapped his face.
“Give me a reason not to kill you.” Lin Yun’s eyes were indifferent, and his voice was cold.
Guo Yue’s eyes were horrified, and his voice trembled with fear. “Don’t… don’t kill me! I was blinded by lard. I deserve to die. Ah no, it’s not that I deserve to die. I don’t want to die yet. I… I’ll give you money. I’ll give you lots and lots of money.”
Speaking of money, Guo Yue’s eyes suddenly lit up as he said loudly, “I’ll give you 200,000 Alliance Dollars. No, no, 300,000 Alliance Dollars. As long as you don’t kill me, I’ll give you 300,000 Alliance Coins.”
Lin Yun frowned as he asked in a cold voice, “300,000 Alliance Dollars? Your annual salary is only a few thousand Alliance Dollars. Where did you get so much money from?”
Guo Yue’s fat face dripped with cold sweat and he said in a sobbing tone, “I’m not lying to you. I really have this amount. This money is from those death row prisoners to buy their lives.”
“Money to buy their lives?” Lin Yun’s face became even colder and his gaze was like a sharp blade, piercing Guo Yue’s panicked eyes.
“I’ll say it, let me say it. They don’t care about money in order to stay alive, so I took the opportunity to collect their money. I only have 300,000 now. The rest was given to Guo Yun. If she didn’t have a lot of money to acquire the genetic modification liquid, how could her cultivation improve so quickly?”
Guo Yue sneaked a glance at Lin Yun, but he saw that Lin Yun was livid and wasn’t moved by the money. He had a clever idea and said loudly, “Your Skynet access is blocked, and only I can unblock it. If you let me go, I’ll remove your Skynet block tomorrow.”
Lin Yun had a stern face and couldn’t see any changes in his expression. With a cold voice, he said to Guo Yue, “Tell me all the bad things you’ve done over the years of being a police chief and how you framed me. I won’t kill you today then.”
Guo Yue was overjoyed and quickly divulged all the bad things he did before. “During my time at the police station, I used my authority to take bribes…”
Guo Yue was unaware that Lin Yun had already secretly pressed the record button on his cell phone.
After a long time, Guo Yue finished speaking and looked at Lin Yun with begging eyes. “Can you let me go now?”
Lin Yun answered with a sneer, “If I didn’t know about these dirty deeds of yours, there was still a chance I could let you go. Now, you’re on your own.”
After saying that, Lin Yun knocked him out with one punch. Then, he got a rope from Guo Yue’s house and tied him up.
“You guys are afraid of seeing the light, but I prefer to expose all of your dirty deeds.”
Lin Yun shouldered the fat pig-like Guo Yue and walked out.
The Clearwater Signal Tower was the tallest building in Clearwater City. It resembled the original television signal tower and was made up of metal supports. The signal tower, which served as a signal hub, was able to receive information several light-years away.
In the early morning, many morning joggers passed by there and were surprised to find a person hanging from the tower.
The top of the signal tower was over a hundred meters from the ground. Just over a hundred meters above the ground, a fat man had been tied into a dumpling with rope and hung from a metal horizontal pillar. A man sitting next to the horizontal pillar held a long knife in his hand and had a pistol at his waist.
Such anecdotes were not uncommon, and everyone quickly spread the news. Gradually, the signal tower was filled with people watching the fun. Many people with good eyesight had already discovered the fat man’s identity.
“Oh God, isn’t that Police Chief Guo Yue? Why has he been kidnapped?”
“It’s really Guo Yue. Whom has he offended? How did he get hung up there?”
“This man has offended too many people to do much good.”
…
Amidst the crowd’s discussion, the police finally arrived, and many police cars surrounded the signal tower. Countless sniper guns were aimed at Lin Yun on the signal tower. However, Lin Yun was sitting in a position that was just blocked by Guo Yue. The snipers didn’t dare to act rashly.
Soon, the media learned about this hot news and swarmed over just like flies that had smelled rotten eggs. Many reporters held microphones in their hands and stood in front of the cameras to explain.
“Hello, everyone, I’m Reporter Wang, a gold medalist reporter of Clearwater TV. Today, I’m going to report a piece of major news. As you can see from the image, a student has kidnapped Police Chief Guo Yue on the signal tower behind me. According to the information, the student’s name is Lin Yun, and he’s a student in a special class at Clearwater College. A source has also revealed that Lin Yun is a spy of the Demon Race.”
…
Lin Yun sat on the tall signal tower, feeling the gale from high in the sky. For some reason, he thought of Feng Ke again. How great would it be if he could sit side by side with Feng Ke, blowing a little wind and chatting?
The tower was already crowded. Soon, a voice was heard from below: “Release the hostage and don’t do anything foolish. If you have any demands, you can bring them up with us. We will definitely resolve it justly.”
Justice? Lin Yun sneered and shouted at the tower below, “Give me a microphone. I want to make a demand. Don’t tamper with it, or I’ll cut the ropes.”
Soon, a helicopter slowly flew up and approached Lin Yun.
“Stop. Throw the microphone over here, or I’ll shoot.”
Lin Yun stared at the approaching helicopter with a cautious face. He pointed his gun at Guo Yue below with one hand and took the microphone thrown over with the other.
“Very well, all of you can leave now. Otherwise, I don’t mind letting Guo Yue get a little hurt.”
Seeing that the helicopter was still hovering, Lin Yun fired a shot towards Guo Yue’s thigh. Guo Yue shouted in pain, “Leave, all of you!”
The police officer in the helicopter heard Guo Yue’s words and could only fly away.
Lin Yun picked up the microphone and coughed a little. His cough was heard loudly in the system under the tower.
“Well, the sound effect is good.” Lin Yun was very happy and pressed his cell phone’s play button.
Suddenly, Guo Yue’s sobbing voice was heard from the system. It could be heard clearly throughout the signal tower.
“During my time at the police station, I used my authority to take bribes…”
It was like the crowd had exploded.
“Oh my god, it’s Guo Yue’s voice.”
“Guo Yue actually personally admitted to doing so many bad things.”
“The content of this recording can’t be fake, right?”
…
A variety of emotions, such as horror, confusion, anger, and puzzlement brewed in the crowd. Many shouted out, demanding for the truth to be published.
“Silence! These words are false! These recordings are artificial!” The police officers explained to the crowd in unison. While Guo Yue had been the chief all these years, many of the police officers under him had joined in his evil doings. If this matter was thoroughly investigated today, they would not be off the hook either.
Then, these police officers began to drive the crowd away. This action, instead, aroused even more suspicion and resentment from the crowd.
“Quickly get out of this place. Lin Yun is a spy of the Demon Race who is bewitching people.”
Despite many police officers explaining like that, the people were skeptical.
At that moment, Guo Yue’s voice just spoke about how he had framed Lin Yun.
“I would frame you up as a spy of the Demon Race and then kill you. There wouldn’t be any more trouble even if the people suspect it. I will arrest anyone who dares to cause trouble as an accomplice of the Demon Race…”
What?
Arresting us as accomplices of the Demon Race?
People got angrier as they berated the police officers and pushed and shoved them. Skirmishes broke out in many places, and the situation was getting out of control.
At this point, the only happy people were the group of pervasive journalists.
Big news, it was truly big news!
