631 Analyze It
âDamn, Old Lin, whatâs going on?â
Hearing someone speak, Lin Yi looked up and saw Qin Hanâs head poking in from outside.
Liang Jinming and Gao Zongyuan were beside him.
âSomeone smashed the shop.â Lin Yi smiled and opened the shutter door, letting the three of them in.
!!
âWho has the guts to smash Brother Linâs shop?â Liang Jinming cursed.
âMy dad knows people from the city bureau. Iâll make a call now and have them identified right now.â
âNo, I know who did it.â
Lin Yi told the three of them what happened yesterday, and Gao Zongyuan lit a cigarette.
âAre these foreign students tired of living? Iâll get someone to do them a favor.â
âWhy are you so angry?â Lin Yi said calmly, âThis kind of thing needs to be handled slowly.â n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
With that, Lin Yi looked at Liang Jinming. âYou donât have to call anyone. Itâll be meaningless if others get involved.â
âBrother Lin, do you want to settle this privately?â
âWhat else? Do you want me to just arrest them and have them pay some compensation? Do you think this is fun?â
âNope.â
âThen itâs settled.â Lin Yi looked at the three of them. âDo any of you know people in the renovation line? Get someone to take care of this. This is a mess. We wonât be able to open for business in the future.â
âLeave this to me,â Gao Zongyuan said. âI know a few people. My family does this as well. I just need to say the word to have it fixed.â
âAlright, Iâll leave this to you.â
Such a small matter could be done easily if Lin Yi just told Guan Ya.
Recently, however, Ji Qingyan and Guan Ya had been discussing the second phase of the Wangjiang Dock project.
If she was told about this, Ji Qingyan would also find out soon enough.
It was better to deal with it slowly and tell her later. Otherwise, she would not have the mood to work for the entire day.
Very quickly, the person Gao Zongyuan called over arrived at the store.
âBrother Lin, Brother Qin, Brother Gao, Brother Liang.â
The young man in the lead was called Zhong Zhenwen. He had dyed red hair and was dressed very trendily.
After seeing the four of them, he was very polite and greeted them one by one, but they were still a little reserved.
Although they were all rich second-generation heirs, this guy was far from the top of the pyramid.
âWenwen, Iâll leave the shop to you. Try to fix it as soon as possible.â
âBrother Lin, donât worry. My family are experts in this. It wonât take up too much time.â
âAsk your subordinates to do it overnight,â Gao Zongyuan said. âIâll pay for it.â
âBrother Gao, look at what youâre saying. Weâve known each other for so many years. How can I take your money? Just treat this as me helping Brother Lin. It should be done by tomorrow morning.â
âAlright, just hurry up. Donât delay Brother Linâs business.â
Gao Zongyuan looked at Lin Yi.
âBrother Lin, leave the shop to me. How do you think we should handle the rest? Do you need to arrange for some people to take care of them?â
âNo need. Iâll go to Zhonghai Technology first and talk to them.â
âThen what are we waiting for? Letâs go together and kill these b*stards.â
A group of four people walked out of the store. They could still see many people standing on their tiptoes and peering at the store from afar, wanting to know what was going on.
However, most people did not think too much about it and thought that it was done by their peers.
After all, this shop had been open for more than a week and had become a famous shop on Zhengyang Street that was a hot topic online. It was only normal for others to be jealous.
However, there were still a small number of students who vaguely guessed that it was very likely done by those international students. They were all paying close attention to the development of the situation and wanted to know how the handsome boss would deal with this matter.
Not long after, the four of them arrived at Zhonghai Institute of Technology.
This was the first time Lin Yi had returned to his alma mater after graduation.
Lin Yi was familiar with everything on campus.
In particular, the lush forest was filled with the smell of youth.
When he arrived at school, Lin Yi didnât dilly-dally and instead went straight to Li Zhiweiâs office.
âLin Yi, why are you here?â
Seeing Lin Yi enter, Li Zhiwei stood up, âIsnât everything settled?â
âItâs settled, but my shop was trashed last night. I want to talk to Lewis and the others.â
âYour shop was trashed?â
Hearing this news, Li Zhiwei was also surprised. He had never thought that such a thing would happen.
âYou donât suspect Lewis and the others, do you?â
âWhat else? Did you do it?â
âLin Yi, although this is a little coincidental, I think youâre being too rash,â Li Zhiwei said.
âI know the gist of what happened yesterday. Youâve both signed the settlement, which means itâs over. Knowing Lewis, itâs unlikely theyâd do something like this. Iâm guessing someone else did it.â
âYou have a point. Then analyze it for me. Who else could it be but Lewis and the others?â
âYouâre joking. Iâm not a criminal investigator. How can I help you identify the suspect?â
âThen why are you still f*cking insisting that Lewis didnât do it? Why canât you identify the suspect since youâre so confident in this?â
Li Zhiwei slammed the table, âLin Yi, how can you say that? Iâm your teacher at the end of the day.â
âI know. Iâm giving you face and came to talk to you about this. Otherwise, I would have attacked them directly.â
Li Zhiwei also knew that after the students graduated, they would no longer be under his control.
Moreover, with Lin Yiâs personality, it was impossible for him to use his status as a teacher to try to suppress him.
At this moment, she could only reason with him and try to appeal to his emotion.
âThen think about it. Both of them have been beaten into submission by you. How would they have the guts to smash your shop? Who would intentionally court death and do such a thing?â
âYou donât have to break down this nonsense. Call the two of them over and weâll talk about this in person.â
âWhat a coincidence. The two of them called me last night and asked for a weekâs leave, so they might not be in school now.â
âYou mean you canât contact them?â Lin Yi said.
âTheyâre all gone. I canât help even if I wanted to.â
âAre you intentionally protecting them?â Gao Zongyuan couldnât stand it anymore.
Brother Linâs temper was really good. After talking to him for so long, he didnât get any useful information.
âLin Yi, tell your friend to watch his words. This is a school, not a place for him to behave atrociously.â
âMy friendâs temper is like that.â Lin Yi said indifferently.
âBut I donât want to waste time with you anymore. Iâll give you an hour. Tell them to look for me in the shop. Otherwise, they should be ready to bear the consequences.â
âIâm your teacher. How dare you talk to me in such a threatening tone? Have you forgotten about the schoolâs nurturing?â Li Zhiwei said.
âAlso, theyâre not in school now. Itâs impossible for me to get them. If you have the time, you might as well call the police to look for the real criminal. You canât say that the two of them did it based on your own suspicions.â
âNo wonder youâre the fourth-in-command of the school. Most people canât compare to you in terms of smoothing things over.â
Lin Yi stood up and looked at Li Zhiwei.
âBut Iâm a man of my word. If I donât see them in an hour, youâll be forced out of here.â
With that, Lin Yi waved his hand and walked out of the office with the four of them, returning to his shop.
The cleaning and renovation work was in full swing.
The people Gao Zongyuan found were quite reliable, and the construction progress was very fast.
In less than an hour, the store had been cleaned up.
âBrother Lin, I feel that this matter might not be simple.â Liang Jinming said.
âYou beat them up yesterday. Logically speaking, they shouldnât be so bold,â Liang Jinming said.
âNormally, things shouldnât turn out like this. However, I feel that they must have found people to back them up.â
âCould they have gotten their parents?â
âThat doesnât seem possible.â Lin Yi said.
âThese guys had come over to smash someone elseâs shop when there was a conflict. Most adults wouldnât do such a lowly thing,â Lin Yi said.
âThere should be someone stronger than them helping them out, but I canât guess who it is. Letâs wait for news from Li Zhiwei.â
âBut I donât think that old bootlicker will cooperate obediently. Itâs better for us to do this by force.â
âDonât be anxious. This kind of thing is more interesting to play out slowly.â
