18: Chapter 18 Threats 18: Chapter 18 Threats In Yanjing Central Hospital, a frail man wailed, “Dad, you must avenge me!
Is there any hope for my leg to recover?”
That man was none other than Lin Song.
At his bedside stood a tall, middle-aged man who said to the Director beside him, “Director Qin, is there any hope for my son’s leg to recover?”
Sweat trickled down Director Qin’s face as he was well aware of the middle-aged man’s power.
He cautiously replied, “Young Master Lin’s leg was impacted by an external force, and logically speaking…”
“Give me a definite answer!” the middle-aged man commanded in a low voice, “How much chance is there for recovery?”
“Less than ten percent!” Director Qin wiped the sweat off his face and said, “Secretary Lin, I’ve already sought the best doctors, but the injury Young Master Lin sustained is too severe.
We… we are powerless!”
Secretary Lin waved his hand dismissively, “Get out, I have some things to ask him!”
When only Secretary Lin and his son were left in the hospital room, Secretary Lin said indifferently, “What exactly happened?
Tell me everything.
Do not try to deceive me!”
Despite his son’s grave injuries, there was nothing but calm on Secretary Lin’s face—no signs of nervousness or sorrow.
Knowing his father was truly furious, Lin Song detailed the events completely.
“Dad, you must help me seek revenge!
I don’t want to become a cripple, I don’t want to lie in a hospital bed for the rest of my life!” Lin Song cried out in agony, “And this matter involves Chen Ningxue, we…”
“Shut your mouth!” Secretary Lin shouted, “You also know this matter involves Chen Ningxue?
How many times have I told you to restrain yourself?
When have you ever listened?
Do you not know what the Chen Family represents?”
“Reflect on yourself because of this broken leg!” Secretary Lin said, “Regarding the person you mentioned, I will naturally seek an explanation from the Chen Family.
You don’t need to worry about it!
Also, don’t let your mother know about this, understand?”
With that, Secretary Lin turned and left, “Heal well, there’s still hope for your leg!”
…
The next day, Liu Tingyu went to class.
Although there weren’t many important courses left in her senior year, she had selected a topic for her thesis, so these days she needed to go to the school to look for information.
Ling Feng went to the nearest decoration market, bought a bucket of paint and a lock cylinder.
At a minimum, he wanted to change the door lock and repaint the walls.
While Ling Feng was working, the outside door burst open, and a group of police rushed in: “Put your hands up, don’t move!”
Ling Feng frowned slightly: “Who are you, and why are you entering a private home without permission?”
“Are you blind?
Don’t you see the police uniforms?” the leading officer said coldly, “You’re called Ling Feng, right?”
“That’s right!”
“Last night, a severe gang fight broke out in Jinghua Community.
The victim claims you brutally attacked them.
Is there any truth to this?” the officer stated righteously.
Ling Feng calmly replied, “That’s correct, if you’re referring to those five thugs, I indeed did it!”
“It’s truly cruel!” the officer yelled, “You broke all their legs.
You, such a violent thug, must be punished by the law!
Come with us!”
As two officers approached to cuff Ling Feng, he shrugged his shoulders, causing the officers to stagger.
“Are you assaulting an officer?” the officer pulled out a gun and pointed it at Ling Feng, shouting, “Put your hands up!”
Ling Feng acted as if he hadn’t seen the pistol, “Don’t be nervous, if this gun goes off, you won’t be able to handle the consequences!
I’m not being uncooperative.
Let’s go!”
The officer frowned and then waved his hand, “You guys keep a close eye on him.
If he makes any suspicious moves, you can shoot at any time!”
With that, the group of police officers pushed Ling Feng into the police car and rushed to the police station.
Sitting in the police car, Ling Feng’s face showed a look of helplessness.
He had really overestimated the integrity of the underworld!
“I forgot, this is Huaxia, not the blood-soaked underworld!” Ling Feng muttered to himself.
In less than fifteen minutes, Ling Feng was brought into the police station, led by the officer and a female officer into the interrogation room.
“Name!”
“Ling Feng.”
“Age?”
“Twenty-five!”
…
Ling Feng cooperated with the routine questioning, which left the officer feeling somewhat at a loss for how to proceed.
“Now, tell me about the process of your assault!” the officer said coldly.
“Let me tell you, leniency for those who confess, severity for those who resist!
If you confess honestly, it might just be a civil case, but if you are obstinate, you could be looking at at least ten years!”
Ling Feng’s eyebrows lifted, he spoke disdainfully, “A civil case for being honest?
Officer, do you really take me for a fool?
You surely understand the cause and the course of the events, so why the pretense?”
The officer spoke coldly, “Ling Feng, it seems you won’t cry until you see the coffin.
Just based on your actions alone, you’re enough to be convicted.
I am offering you a chance for a lighter sentence by asking you to confess, don’t be ungrateful.
Now, why did you severely injure those five men?”
Ling Feng sighed, shrugged, and said, “Officer, first of all, it was self-defense!
I think you should be investigating those five individuals more.”
“I will naturally look into them!” the officer said with a cold glint in his eyes.
“Right now, you need to explain your actions!”
With Ling Feng’s perception, he knew that this seemingly upright officer had already been bought by the so-called United Hearts Gang.
From the beginning of the questioning, every word was a trap.
So Ling Feng simply chose not to answer and closed his eyes to rest.
“Do you think if you don’t say anything I will have no way to deal with you?” the officer signaled to turn off the surveillance, then asked the female officer to stop taking notes and approached Ling Feng, whispering, “I advise you to just confess honestly.
It’s better for you, for me, for everyone.
Do you really think you can withstand our punishment?”
Ling Feng just looked at him indifferently, without saying a word.
The officer’s eyes flickered with a cold light, “Fine, since you are so stubborn, don’t blame me for being impolite!”
Saying this, he asked the female officer to leave, who showed a hesitant expression on her face.
Clearly, she knew her supervisor was about to use extrajudicial measures, but under such circumstances, even if she disagreed in her heart, she obediently left.
The officer pulled out his baton with a sinister smile, “Ling Feng, I’m giving you one last chance, will you talk or not?”
Ling Feng sighed and said, “Officer, do you really think you are upholding fairness and justice?
Touch the police badge on your head.
Aren’t you ashamed?”
What do you think?
