Chapter 2179: Chapter 2180: Into the Tiger’s Den
“Doing this is illegal, it’s a serious crime!”
Ling Han provided her response, but her tone and attitude were not as resolute as before.
“I know, but this is a matter of course,” Li Wenjun said,
“The person they want you to kill is a death row inmate, his fate is already sealed in death, I don’t think it will have a bad impact, because he is destined to be a dead man.”
“But they also want the customer information from Pufa Bank, and I can’t do that.”
“Is there really no way at all? Your financial crimes division should have the authority to access relevant information, right?”
“I do.” Ling Han shook her head, “but it requires an application, I as a detective team leader can’t do it myself.”
“Ah…”
Li Wenjun sighed deeply and said,
“Little Han, although your grandfather has paved the way for you, how you walk it is still up to you to choose. If you feel you can’t do it, then don’t do it. If you can’t join Central Guards Brigade, then it’s just not our fate. I can’t say much else, I’ll leave the decision about your future in your hands.”
Ling Han sat in the car, eyes tightly closed, leaning back in her seat.
She was very clear that with her current capabilities, even if Central Guards Brigade were to recruit nationally again in the next one or two years, her chances of being selected were very slim.
Injecting the E-class serum was her only way!
Otherwise, she would spend her whole life in a small sub-branch!
All the suffering she endured from childhood, all her efforts, the long-held dream, it would all be for naught!
Ling Han’s fists clenched tightly!
She was unwilling!
She did not want to give up!
…
After parting with Ling Han, Lin Yi took a taxi to Binhai Avenue.
Not far away, there was a four-story building called Yunshan City Club.
The club had four floors, with the main building in white, grand and atmospheric, very modern.
This place was where Pengcheng Chamber of Commerce usually gathered, and it was their headquarters.
It was said that without assets worth hundreds of millions, one couldn’t become a member.
At this moment, the lights of Yunshan Club were brightly lit.
Though it was impossible to see if there were people inside, every room had its lights on, some with curtains drawn, some not.
Sitting by the side of Binhai Avenue, Lin Yi was making a phone call with Qiu Yuluo.
“It seems unlikely you’ll be able to get in, I can help you up to here, just be honest,” Qiu Yuluo said on the phone,
“Besides, even if you get in, you might not see anything important.”
“From what you’re saying, it seems a bit tricky.”
“I’ve seen the list you provided, these people have significant social influence, so there will be many restrictions,” Qiu Yuluo said,
“If you really want to get to them, I do have a way.”
“Tell me.”
“I’ll help you investigate these people, once the evidence is almost ready, we can move in to arrest them.”
“That could work, but it might take a bit long, at least a month.”
“Given their status, if you can gather all the evidence within a month, consider yourself lucky.”
“No, that’s too long.”
“But that’s the only way,” Qiu Yuluo said,
“And you have to know, it’s because I am personally investigating that we can have such efficiency, if we went through the normal judicial process, it would end up nowhere.”
“This is fucking ridiculous,” Lin Yi cursed.
“Because this time, you’ve touched on the dark side of capital, even those unrelated people might step forward to refute you in some way, you understand what I mean.”
“Got it.”
The massive capital, like clouds floating in the sky.
The moment you try to pierce one cloud, the others might also strike lightning at you.
Because one day, you might also take action against them.
“So, how do you want to handle this?”
“Keep investigating on your side, I’ll look for opportunities here,” Lin Yi said,
“I’ve come all this way, I have to do something.”
“Alright, wait for my news,” Qiu Yuluo said,
“By the way, you can’t get into the club, but there’s another place you might want to check out.”
“Where?”
“At number 230 on Binhai Avenue, there’s a bath center, also membership-based, but as long as you have money you can get in,” Qiu Yuluo said,
“I’ve checked the information, that bath center has significant connections with Pengcheng Chamber of Commerce, why don’t you go take a look if you’re free.”
“That’s great, I just wanted to go have a massage to relieve fatigue.”
“I knew you’d like that.”
“Alright, enough talk, Big Treasure Sword out.”
Lin Yi hung up the phone, glancing at the building number beside him, which was 169, not too far, and slowly walked over.
A few minutes later, Lin Yi arrived at the bath center mentioned by Qiu Yuluo.
Upon arriving, he noticed this place differed from the bath centers in Zhong Hai.
Because the sign read “Club Med Holiday Center.”
Lin Yi clicked his tongue, wealthy people really play differently, so many varieties.
“Sir, our Club Med Holiday Center is membership-based, not open to the public, we truly apologize.”
Standing at the entrance, a woman in a hip-wrap skirt said.
“Is it because I didn’t drive a car, so you won’t let me in?”
The woman looked a bit embarrassed, that was her thought, but stating it out loud was somewhat self-deprecating.
“That’s not it, sir, I’m just explaining our system here.”
“Riding a bike to a bar, saving where I can, spending where I should, although I came walking, it doesn’t mean I can’t afford it.”
The two hostesses at the door exchanged looks.
Though handsome, he didn’t look like a wealthy person.
But since he said as much, and they were in business to make money, they naturally couldn’t turn him away.
“Sir, right this way please.”
Under the guidance of the hostess, Lin Yi entered the interior of the holiday center.
As soon as he entered, he was enveloped by dim lighting, feeling like he had entered a sauna room.
“Sir, our establishment operates on a membership basis, the membership…”
“Enough, don’t bother with the introduction, just tell me how much membership costs.”
“Membership fees range from 88,800 to 888,800, but a minimum deposit of 500,000 is required to register for membership.”
Hearing such prices, Lin Yi was also surprised.
Such an expensive price, saying there’s no trick inside, no fool would believe it.
“Give me the best one,” Lin Yi handed over his bank card.
“Very well, sir, please wait a moment.”
As Lin Yi was registering the card, a middle-aged man walked out from inside, accompanied by a long-haired beauty in an ultra-short skirt.
When he saw Lin Yi, the man’s pupils shrank unexpectedly!
