Ah!A scream came, and the sheriff clutched his thigh, his body starting to convulse in pain.
"Bastard, I’m going to kill you!"
"The whole world wants to kill me, but I’m still alive and well."
The policeman driving in front also started to tremble.
Just as he was about to reach for his gun, Lin Yi put a knife to his neck.
"Behave, or you’ll die before he does."
Having subdued both men, Lin Yi looked at the sheriff.
"Now? Are you afraid of me?"
"Calm down, don’t do anything rash. What exactly do you want?"
"Tell the car behind to stop, you leave here, don’t get involved in this." Lin Yi said,
"Of course, I won’t let you help for free. The reward is this watch in my hand, you can sell it second-hand for about a hundred thousand USD."
"I, I got it."
The deputy sheriff took the radio and told the colleague driving behind to stop and come over to meet them.
"When they come over, you can leave. Take the money and go on a vacation with your family. Have a pleasant trip."
After the car stopped, Lin Yi unlocked the three’s handcuffs and got off the car.
The other two policemen looked at the four with cautious expressions but didn’t dare to say anything.
The four of them approached the car behind, opened the door, and Paul and the others shrank back in terror.
"Why were you released?"
"It’s none of your business and won’t benefit you to know."
"Lin Bro, what now? Do we take them back for questioning?" Liang Jinming asked.
"I can guess what’s going on; questioning is meaningless now, just take action."
"Take action?"
"Give me that lighter."
Liang Jinming handed over the lighter.
Lin Yi closed the car door, went around to the front, and opened the hood.
He cut the fuel injector of the engine with a knife and then ignited it.
Soon, a raging fire started.
Since the car doors were locked, and they were handcuffed inside, survival was impossible in the enclosed space.
"Let’s go."
"You really are ruthless," QinHan sighed.
"These bastards won’t learn a lesson unless you show them who’s boss."
"But the problem is, if they issue a warrant, it will be hard to return to our country."
"Since they took my watch, they know what to do, otherwise it’s bribery, which is a serious crime here."
"Damn, you planned this all along, crafty as ever," QinHan said,
"You said they came to provoke us on purpose; do you know who sent them?"
"It should be people from the Mirta Group," Lin Yi said,
"They don’t dare do anything to you, just want to disgust you a bit."
"Damn those bastards, I even saw them as partners, and they pull this kind of crap behind our backs."
"After all, they have other purposes, not just targeting you; it also involves me."
"So what now?"
"Let’s go for drinks; we’ll head back tomorrow."
"Deal."
...
In the casino, Chert was playing cards.
Just then, his phone rang.
"What did you say?! The car caught fire spontaneously? Paul and the others are all dead?"
"Okay, I got it."
After hanging up, Chert’s expression turned serious.
He hadn’t expected such a thing to happen.
The situation had exceeded his expectations, way beyond his capability.
Picking up his phone, Chert dialed Viggins’ number.
"There’s a situation here, Paul and the others are dead; it should be Lin Yi’s doing."
"I saw the news, it’s no big deal, get some rest early tonight," Viggins said calmly, even with a hint of excitement.
"Shouldn’t we handle it?"
"No need for anything, just a few unimportant people died; it doesn’t matter."
"I see."
...
In a hotel presidential suite, Viggins, wearing a bathrobe and holding a glass of red wine, stood in front of a transparent glass window looking at the city’s night view.
To him, this news carried a positive and encouraging meaning.
It proved Lin Yi was local, making it highly likely the activities in the mountains were under his command.
Despite suffering a setback in this encounter, the overall situation still leaned in his favor.
The Research Institute’s progress remained ahead, ensuring the family’s absolute dominance in future contests!
Swirling the wine in his glass, Viggins muttered to himself,
"Such keen insight. Although you took the lead, I still have the initiative; you can’t be my opponent."
Boom—
Just then, Viggins heard an explosion.
Though distant, making the sound not too loud, he could see flames and thick black smoke rising in the distance.
Seeing this, Viggins frowned slightly.
Because the fire seemed to be near the laboratory.
But he wasn’t worried; although rare, such occurrences occasionally happened and weren’t surprising.
As long as it didn’t affect the laboratory, there was no problem.
Putting the wine aside, Viggins prepared for bed.
Just then, his phone rang.
"Boss, something’s wrong. The laboratory exploded, the fire trucks haven’t arrived yet, and the fire’s spreading; the materials inside might not survive."
"What did you just say! An explosion?"
Viggins could no longer sit still, his face turned pale, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
"How could this happen? Everything gets checked daily; how did this occur!"
"We, we don’t know either, but it really happened."
"Damn it, get people to put out the fire quickly; if the materials can’t be retrieved, I’ll kill you all!"
Suddenly, Viggins panicked, struggling to remain calm.
All experimental data and materials were in the laboratory; if they were destroyed by the fire, both the family’s and his father’s status would be affected!
Ringing—
At this moment, Viggins’ phone rang again.
It was his father, Sinus, calling.
"What’s going on? How did an explosion happen at the laboratory?"
Sinus’s voice carried anger as if interrogating Viggins.
"This could very likely be Lin Yi’s doing."
"Lin Yi? Are you sure?"
"It should be him. He’s local, and besides him, no one else could do this, it’s too coincidental."
On the other end, Sinus was silent for a moment.
"Do you have any evidence?"
"No."
"Then hurry and organize people to put out the fire. If the materials inside are destroyed, all efforts will be wasted."
"I know, I’m heading over now!"
Hanging up the phone, Viggins clenched his fists, face livid with rage.
"I will not let you off the hook!"
