"I’m not the one who wants to talk; it’s Mr. Lin Yi who wants to talk to you.""Mr. Lin Yi."
Ment was somewhat surprised, not expecting this Huaxia in front of him to be the protagonist today.
"What do you want to talk to me about?"
"We have a ship about to set sail and will pass through here. I’m here to give you a heads up—not to entertain any crooked ideas."
"Oh?"
Upon hearing this, Ment looked at Lin Yi in surprise.
"You still want to meddle in this?"
"Of course."
Lin Yi shrugged, glancing at Toya and Xiyade.
"I’ve already talked with them, now it’s your turn."
"Heh..."
Ment sneered, "They’re just a bunch of cowards; I’m not going to compromise so easily."
"What’s backing you up?" Lin Yi said with a smile:
"Is it the gun in your hand or the Alim organization behind you?"
"You even know about the organization backing me!"
Ment cautiously stared at Lin Yi, realizing that this man in front of him knew more than he imagined.
Things might not be as simple as they seem.
"Do you think any of that matters? You’re on my turf; if I want, I could kill you with a single bullet."
Lin Yi chuckled, "You can call the people of Alim and see if you can reach them."
"What do you mean?"
"No meaning behind it; just make a call, and you’ll understand."
Ment’s eyes shifted, then he took out his phone and dialed Alim’s people.
But after several attempts, no one answered on the other end.
"I can’t reach them at the moment."
"Let me correct you; it’s not that you can’t reach them temporarily, but you’ll never reach them again," Lin Yi said:
"I’ve already sent them to meet God."
"You actually!"
Ment was startled, but he quickly regained his composure.
"Do you think I’d believe such nonsense? Who do you think you are?"
"If you don’t believe me, you can ask these two." Lin Yi said, pointing to Toya and Xiyade:
"Baisha Security Company’s strength is similar to yours, and they’ve given up on hijacking the freighter—what are you still insisting on?"
"Heh..."
Ment snorted, "I’ve already said, they’re just two cowards—how can they compare to me."
Lin Yi stared at Ment; a cold aura unfurled.
"So, you’re not planning to agree?"
"Of course not."
Ment said matter-of-factly:
"Yan Country’s merchant ships are the easiest to hijack, and they don’t dare retaliate; why would I miss this opportunity?"
Flicking ash from his cigarette, Ment continued:
"I’m busy and don’t have time to discuss this with you; now leave and don’t waste my time."
Ment was well aware of Baisha Security Company’s strength and would not clash directly unless absolutely necessary.
Since they weren’t here to negotiate, he thought he might as well let them leave.
"We can’t leave while things remain unresolved."
"But I no longer want to negotiate with you."
Without warning, Lin Yi took out a scalpel and pressed it against Ment’s neck, giving him no chance to react!
The sudden turn of events made the Bant Guard tense, each aiming their guns at Lin Yi.
Toya and the other two didn’t surrender, instead pulling out their weapons and turning them on the others.
Ment, head raised, looked slightly panicked, not expecting Lin Yi to act directly.
"What are you doing?"
"What do you think?"
Lin Yi’s hand didn’t waver, keeping the scalpel steadily against Ment’s carotid artery, as he turned to look at the Bant Guard.
"If I kill him, you could become the leader of this organization. Interested?"
With those words, Ment’s subordinates looked at each other.
This offer was too tempting to resist.
"Bastards, are you going to betray me?"
Ment shouted loudly.
But his subordinates didn’t respond, instead seriously considering the proposition.
Lin Yi shot a glance at Toya, who approached Ment and pointed a gun at his head.
"Your men have betrayed you; you might as well come with us."
With the gun as leverage, Toya led Ment slowly toward the door.
His men, meaningfully, only aimed their guns at them without any intention of firing.
As they left, Lin Yi eyed one of the bald men.
"I heard you’re the deputy leader of the Bant Guard."
The latter nodded, not denying it.
"Once he’s dead, you’ll be the head of this force. Congratulations."
The bald man’s attitude had already wavered; hearing Lin Yi’s words, excitement flickered in his heart.
After so many years, today he finally saw his chance.
Seeing this, Ment continued cursing, but it was too late.
The Bant Guard was no longer inclined to resist.
Baisha Security Company was now locked in a standoff with them.
If a fight broke out, neither side would come out unscathed.
It was better to sacrifice Ment and spare the others.
Under Toya’s threat, they reached the dock.
Meanwhile, the dock workers were astonished, never expecting them to actually capture Ment.
Tension permeated the docks; no one knew what would happen next.
Toya stopped, and from behind, Xiyade kicked Ment, making him kneel instantly.
"A Yan Country freighter will soon set sail from here. If anyone dares to rob it, they’ll end up like him."
Without hesitation, Xiyade pulled the trigger; blood sprayed, and a bullet hole appeared on Ment’s head. He slumped to the ground.
The bloody scene shocked everyone, aligning with Lin Yi’s goal for this trip.
With countless pirates around, it was impossible to wipe them all out; deterrence was the tactic—to make them wary of acting.
With Ment dead, a warning example was set.
Likely, no one would dare to target the freighters again.
The dock workers stepped back, not uttering a word but their eyes stark with fear.
Ment’s body was thrown into the sea, and Lin Yi watched in silence.
With that, the task of his journey was accomplished.
"When the freighter sails, have people escort it to prevent any unobservant troublemakers," Lin Yi said.
"Alright, alright, we understand. No one will get close to the freighter."
"As for the Bant Guard’s issues, handle them yourselves; I won’t get involved."
"Yes, yes, yes. Thank you, Team Leader Lin, for such great assistance."
"No need for thanks," Lin Yi replied:
"Get me a car; I’m ready to head back."
"Alright, alright, we’ll prepare one right away."
By early afternoon, Lin Yi boarded a car back to the hotel, preparing to pack and return to Zhong Hai.
