The Invincible Strongest Student

Chapter 394: Chapter 394: Eliminating Harm for the People

”Have we met before?” Lin Tian searched his memories, thinking that he had never seen this female police officer before. If he had, such a beautiful woman would surely leave an impression.

But how could she say they’ve met twice?

”We have indeed met, you just didn’t notice me.”

Xu Ning’an said with a slight grievance, ”The first time was when you rescued those children from the traffickers. You even gave the money from their bank cards to the kids and helped the police catch those people. I was very impressed by you back then, thinking how righteous you were.”

”The second time was at the police station when I waved at you to say hello. I thought you remembered me, but you walked right past me and ignored me. I got laughed at by my colleagues for a week because of it.”

Before Lin Tian could say anything, Wu Yong burst out laughing, ”Tian, why do I get the feeling you’re like a heartbreaker? She fell for you at first sight, and you don’t remember her at all.”

Lin Tian turned and glared at him, then turned back to Xu Ning’an, ”Sorry, maybe there were too many people, and I didn’t notice you.”

Wu Yong only had one thought: Did Tian’s brain break? How could he not notice such a beautiful woman? If it were me, I’d probably have kids by now.

Xu Ning’an shook her head, not bothered, but said with disappointment, ”You were so good before, how did you turn out like this now?”

Lin Tian was puzzled, ”Like what?”

Xu Ning’an glanced at Wu Yong, ”Hanging out with this kind of scum. And judging by your look, you’re his boss. I thought you were a good guy, didn’t expect you to be the leader of hooligans, just like those traffickers, not a good person.”

Lin Tian’s forehead showed several black lines, not expecting Xu Ning’an to misunderstand him so deeply.

Wu Yong couldn’t hold it in anymore and jumped off the sofa, yelling, ”How am I scum? Just because you’re police, it gives you the right to slander people?”

”Aren’t you scum? You oppress people, and even take over bars. This is a society ruled by law; with what you’re doing, you’ll end up in jail, eating lead one day.”

Xu Ning’an scolded mercilessly. She couldn’t understand how someone like Wu Yong had the nerve to say he wasn’t scum.

Wu Yong’s face turned red with anger. He pointed at Xu Ning’an, on the verge of snapping back, but Lin Tian stopped him.

Lin Tian pressed Wu Yong’s hand down and explained, ”I think you might have misunderstood us. The bar we took over isn’t as simple as you think.”

”Hmph, I’m a police officer, not some girl who’d be tricked by just a few words. I know your type too well, so tell me, besides money, why did you take over the bar?”

”You’re not wrong. Taking over that bar brings us quite a profit every month. On the flip side, it cuts their profit. The bar we took today belongs to a smaller underground force in Kanyue City. Even though they’re not large, they’ve done plenty of harm to the people. We’re doing our part to eliminate evil for the public.”

”Doing your part to eliminate evil? It just sounds good on paper.” Xu Ning’an scoffed at Lin Tian’s words, looking at him with disdain.

”Don’t look at me like that. If you don’t trust me, Wu Yong, report our recent achievements to Officer Xu.”

Receiving the instruction, Wu Yong cleared his throat and began seriously, ”Including tonight’s bar, we now have a company and four bars, one karaoke place in our hands.”

Lin Tian continued, ”Don’t underestimate us, it’s just four bars now, but it will become forty, then four hundred. I will use my way to protect this city.”

Xu Ning’an laughed, clearly not believing Lin Tian, ”Just you guys, how will you protect it?”

”By then, our members will be everywhere in Kanyue City. Make all the security guards our people. Let us help the police protect this city.”

”You guys? Become security guards?” Xu Ning’an looked at him like a suspect.

”See, you don’t know us at all. What right do you have to say we’re a group of evildoers? I’m not lying to you. My plan is, soon in malls, residential areas, bars, KTVs, all the security you see will be our people. They’ll be different from current security, with higher pay, better skills, and stricter discipline. If someone causes trouble or crosses a line, they’re dealt with harshly.”

”But that method will be brutal!” Xu Ning’an said.

”Explaining to troublemakers, do you think it’s possible? We’re just fighting violence with violence, and our method is much simpler than the police’s.”

”Hmph.” Xu Ning’an opened her mouth, wanting to retort but said nothing, turned her head with a cold snort. What she was pondering, no one knew.

Wu Yong felt invigorated, grabbing Lin Tian’s hand excitedly, ”Really? I suddenly feel that what I’ve been doing recently is noble.”

Lin Tian quickly shook off his hand, joking, ”Shameless.”

Then, Lin Tian picked up the bottle of water he had just opened and handed it to Xu Ning’an, ”Drink some, your lips are cracked.”

Xu Ning’an hesitated for a few seconds but eventually accepted the water from Lin Tian and drank half a bottle in one sip.

She breathed heavily, looked at Lin Tian, and said, ”But your goal is difficult. Du Dahai won’t easily let you achieve it.”

Lin Tian laughed, ”That’s why we’re working hard now, to take over other small forces and gradually develop so we can compete with Du Dahai.”

Xu Ning’an’s gaze softened.

She looked at Lin Tian, nodded at him, ”Yes, I believe you’ll do it. Du Dahai is really bad. I’m collecting evidence of his crimes and will catch him all at once.”

Lin Tian smiled, thinking she was too naive. Du Dahai had been in Kanyue City for years, holding much of the underground market. Surely he had protection from above. Even with a lot of evidence, Xu Ning’an might not succeed against him.

However, Lin Tian didn’t voice this thought. That would be too discouraging, and perhaps she could really do it?

Wu Yong watched the two exchanging glances, seeing that the misunderstanding was resolved, and both now sharing a common goal. No romance now, but it could happen in the future.

Wu Yong always believed in Lin Tian’s charm with women.

Just then, someone knocked on the door. Wu Yong opened it to find the clothes and food they had asked for had arrived.
