Chapter 3914: Falsified Credentials

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

"No, no, it’s just that I don’t want to do it anymore. Don’t overthink it."

"Master Ma, don’t worry, we won’t leak your personal information. We just hope you can tell us the truth."

"Really nothing..."

"Nothing? Just speak the truth, the journalist is here, why are you still hiding it?" Ma Shengxing’s wife said.

"What nonsense are you talking, hiding what?"

Ma Shengxing’s wife came out of the kitchen holding a tray of fruits and placed it in front of everyone.

"You all have some fruits first."

"Thank you, ma’am." Lin Yi said, "Can you tell us the real reason why Master Ma stepped down?"

"It’s because of that guy named Mao Hai Long. He wouldn’t let Old Ma work in the village and even threatened him, saying that if he came back, he would deal with him."

Ma Shengxing sighed helplessly, lowering his head.

Lin Yi and the others remained calm. They had expected this possibility and just wanted more details.

"What did you do at that time? Did you not report it to the police?"

"We did report it. When the police arrived, he denied everything, saying he never said such things. We had no evidence, so it ended with nothing resolved."

"After that? Did you really stop working?"

"Yes, we did. Then Mao Hai Long brought people to surround my husband and threatened him and even wanted to find my son and daughter-in-law. We had no choice but to stop."

"So that’s what happened."

"Journalist." Ma Shengxing’s wife sighed, "You all have the power. This Mao Hai Long is unbearable, bullying honest people like us. Please expose him quickly, so he can’t harm others."

"Don’t worry, ma’am. We’ll definitely report this matter truthfully."

Then Zhou Li arranged for Xu Qingqing to ask a few more questions to ensure the program would be more effective when aired.

When they left Ma Shengxing’s house, it was already past five in the evening. The group went to the county to have dinner.

"Now that things are clear, it’s Mao Hai Long working with a few others to monopolize the vet business in several villages," Ma Jun said, "Once we report this, the problem will be resolved."

"But how to deal with him is a problem," Zhou Li said, "First, what he’s done is illegal, but there’s no substantive evidence for his threats against Ma Shengxing. The only solid evidence we have is about selling Chloroprostaglandin. We still don’t know how the judgment will be."

"Sister Li, there’s also the dispute between him and Pan Yongbing," Xu Qingqing said.

"That part is almost ready. It just depends on how to add more details," Lin Yi said, "In this kind of matter, the bigger the public outcry, the easier it is to handle."

Everyone nodded, agreeing with Lin Yi’s perspective.

Ring ring ring—

At this moment, Lin Yi’s phone rang. It was a call from Xiao Bing.

Lin Yi put down his chopsticks, got up, and went outside the restaurant to answer the call.

"Boss, I’ve checked. That guy named Mao Hai Long graduated from a technical school, studying lathe processing."

"Lathe processing?"

"Yes, we looked into his grades. It seems he scored just over 100. In those technical schools, you know, even if someone doesn’t study well, they won’t be expelled," Xiao Bing said, "After graduation, he worked in a factory for a few months before quitting and staying home. That’s pretty much his situation."

"Alright, I got it."

After discussing business, Lin Yi hung up the phone.

In the veterinary field, if you’re not a student in a related major, you can’t take the licensing exam.

This provides another way to deal with him. You’ve got to admit, this guy is quite bold.

After the call, Lin Yi went back and said, "I’ve also had someone check on Mao Hai Long. He graduated from a technical school, studying lathe processing, which has nothing to do with veterinary work."

"Hm? Then he’s faking it? Practicing without a license?" Zhou Li said.

"Yes, that’s right. Now we have sufficient reason to deal with him."

Zhou Li put down her chopsticks and thought for a moment, "The content is almost ready. Tomorrow we’ll contact the police to deal with this. Let’s stay here tonight and handle the rest tomorrow."

"No problem."

After dinner, Zhou Li went to book a hotel. The conditions in the county are quite alright.

The best hotel here can even match a three-star in Zhong Hai. Planning to get a good night’s sleep and deal with Mao Hai Long tomorrow.

After dinner, Lin Yi walked in the hotel backyard parking lot, chatting on the phone with a few women.

"Lin Yi!"

Lin Yi, who was on the phone, heard Zhou Li’s voice and saw her holding a phone, walking briskly towards him.

On the call, he said a word to Li Chuhan and then hung up.

"What’s up, Sister Li?"

Zhou Li took out her phone, showing a missed call.

"Who called? Could it be Mao Hai Long?"

"It was him. He might have realized the seriousness of the situation and wanted to call us."

"When did he call you?"

"20 minutes ago."

"What’s your thought?"

"Actually, I don’t want to contact him," Zhou Li said, "But the only problem now is Pan Yongbing’s loss. I’m worried the police won’t offer much compensation after handling the case. It’s a bit troubling."

"You shouldn’t contact him," Lin Yi thought and said, "If he’s willing to compensate, it indirectly implies an agreement, and you can’t hold him accountable for his wrongdoing. So, don’t answer, let the police handle it. As long as there’s enough public pressure, compensation won’t be a problem."

"Alright, I’ll listen to you."

Ring ring ring—

At this moment, Zhou Li’s phone rang again. Lin Yi noticed the number was different.

"Did he change the number to call you?"

"I don’t think so, this number looks a bit like Ma Shengxing’s."

"Answer and see."

Zhou Li nodded and picked up the call.

"Hello, journalist."

Ma Shengxing’s voice came from the phone.

"Master Ma, what’s wrong?"

"Just now, Mao Hai Long came looking for me and even brought several people."

"What did he say? Did he do anything to you?"

"He wanted to, but my son was home, so we weren’t afraid of him," Ma Shengxing said, "They asked me if you all came to see me and where you went."

"Don’t bother with him, if they come again, just call the police."

"But I’m worried he’ll come looking for you."

"Don’t worry about us, he doesn’t have the guts to mess with me."

"That’s good."

After the call, Zhou Li looked at Lin Yi somewhat helplessly.

"We guessed right, he really can’t let it go."

"It’s normal. After such an incident, he’d definitely come looking," Lin Yi looked at his watch, "It’s about time, he’ll probably be here soon."

"Hm? You think he can find us?"

"Definitely, the county isn’t that big, and they’re local. Finding us is too easy for them."
