Chapter 134, Episode 0138: A Super Case (Part 1)

Lin Yuexi and the others were having breakfast when Team Leader Lin, whose dark circles were comparable to those of a national treasure, strode in.

Well, to put it simply, the world is really only as big as a village.

Last night, the police caught those two fugitives at their house. Maybe the police were a little excited and made a lot of noise when they arrested them. Some people at the educated youth settlement were woken up, and the cowshed, which was already on high alert, was also alerted.

Lin Yuexi used her spiritual power to "see" that Old Chen and the others had woken up and were anxiously looking in their direction. After the police left, she quietly went to the cowshed to comfort the old men. They were all in poor health and didn't get much sleep, so she didn't want them to worry and stay up all night, since they still had to go to work the next day.

Little did they know that they would encounter Captain Lin's dog sneaking around outside the cowshed.

"...You? Hello, Comrade Lin." Captain Lin's face turned green.

However, he was a smart man, and he understood what was going on in this situation. He was just startled when he suddenly bumped into someone while sneaking over.

Lin Yuexi nodded and stepped into the cowshed without saying a word.

Captain Lin paused for a moment, then silently strode inside and closed the door after confirming that no one was around.

"Xiao Xi, did something happen?"

"Moon Girl, the noise I heard is coming from your house. Is something wrong?"

"You're talking nonsense. Why would Yue'er come here in the middle of the night if there was nothing wrong with her?"

"You brute, I was being tactful, you know what tact is?"

"I can't stand people like you. Why are you being so tactful? If you have a question, just say it directly. Why make it so hard for people to understand? Yueya, I saw the police at your house. Why bother the police in the middle of the night? Are they helping to arrest someone, or is someone taking advantage of your weakness and making you do something you don't want to do?"

No wonder he was once a high-ranking officer in the military; his insight is indeed sharp.

Captain Lin, who had been ignored by everyone, felt as if he had been riddled with arrows. He knew that the elders were pretending not to see him and were warning him, so he didn't dare to argue and silently endured it.

Captain Lin understood perfectly well, as did Lin Yuexi. Tonight's incident was not Captain Lin's fault at all, so they hurriedly went forward to comfort the elderly.

After explaining the whole story to the elders, they stopped focusing on the tall, imposing Captain Lin and allowed him to have a place on the kang (heated brick bed).

Now that the matter was resolved, we naturally started chatting about other things.

Lin Yuexi then realized why Captain Lin had appeared there.

Captain Lin's name is Lin Dehu, which sounds fierce, but his personality is not fierce at all. Instead, he is calm and reliable.

Lin Dehu's father was Li Lao's soldier and served as Li Lao's bodyguard for nearly four years. It is no exaggeration to say that he was Li Lao's confidant.

Old Chen once saved Grandpa Lin Dehu's life to repay Old Li's favor.

Look at this relationship.

Lin Dehu's family was just an ordinary family. His father was injured while protecting Old Li and retired from the army. He worked hard for most of his life but only became a small captain in the public security bureau of Fuxing County, a remote county.

They knew about the accident at Old Li's house, but it was difficult to find out anything else. So they never knew where Old Li had been sent, or even whether he was still alive.

As for Old Chen, who saved his grandfather's life, his whereabouts are even more unknown.

If he hadn't come here to investigate this case, he probably would never have known that the two elderly people who had been kind to his family lived so close to them.

What they didn't know was that in Wang Qin's previous life, when Old Chen went up the mountain to collect firewood the next afternoon, he accidentally encountered the two fugitives committing a crime. Old Chen tried to save them, but was killed instead.

No one knows about this, and no one will ever know again. At this moment, Old Chen's face no longer showed much of the signs of aging; his complexion had a touch of rosy color, and his gaze towards Lin Yuexi was full of affection.

Uh, I've gone off on a tangent again. Let's get back to the point.

Having learned from last night's move, Captain Lin now considered Lin Yuexi as someone he was in cahoots with. Without any politeness, he sat down, picked up a steamed bun, and devoured half of it in one bite.

He chewed and swallowed it, then took another bite of the remaining half.

His ravenous eating style finally lived up to his name, making everyone feel a little choked up for him.

Ren Yan hurriedly filled a large bowl with porridge. Fortunately, she had added too much water when cooking the rice in the morning, so it was a bit thin, but there was enough of it.

Everyone except Lin Yuexi had to go to work, so they left after saying goodbye to Team Leader Lin, also to avoid suspicion.

Liu Huai didn't have to go to work [he just went to join in the fun yesterday], but he was summoned away by an urgent telegram from the Corps early this morning, and he probably won't be back for at least ten days to half a month.

Team Leader Lin looked around, slurped up a large mouthful of porridge, and asked, "Was Uncle Liu also recruited?"

"Ah."

Those who live under protection are unaware that people are constantly bearing the burden for their mundane and uninteresting lives!
We've already started a war with Y, but it hasn't been a large-scale battle yet; instead, we're testing each other in small groups.

But damn it, Y has M behind it, and M gave Y a lot of advanced weapons. Although we didn't fall behind, we suffered heavy losses.

The Northwest Military Hospital was overflowing with wounded soldiers, and even with each doctor having more than two pairs of hands, they still couldn't treat them all. The city hospital lacked the technology and equipment, and couldn't handle even slightly more serious injuries.

With no other option, they had to send the seriously wounded soldiers, who were still able to hold on, by special train to the military hospital of the Northeast Corps for treatment.

[Because the truly skilled doctors are either being demoted or are being protected only in military hospitals.]

Upon receiving the order, the Northeast Corps Hospital immediately made full preparations. Naturally, experts like Liu Huai, who could stop bleeding for the wounded with just acupuncture, were among the first to be called back.

Team Leader Lin also heard some news, but he didn't know much. He only knew that a special train carrying seriously wounded soldiers was going to be transferred to Fuxing County and then sent to a military hospital for treatment.

This was still a secret, so he didn't dare to ask too much. He only knew that Liu Huai worked as a military doctor, and now that he saw that Liu Huai wasn't around, he casually asked a question.

After Lin Yuexi replied, he stopped thinking about it. Now that he had something to say, he felt more energetic and started talking about his main purpose for coming here.

"My boss knows that you helped catch those two fugitives and is going to write you a letter of commendation and give you 500 yuan."

Lin Yuexi: "..."

Two hundred and fifty per person?

But who would turn down a little money? A letter of praise now is like a banner in the future; any family that has one can use it as a family heirloom.

Lin Yuexi nodded with a smile to indicate that she liked it.

"I interrogated those two all night last night. Neither of them are tough people. They confessed everything. The one with the scar on his face is actually the second-in-command."

This time, Lin Yuexi was a little confused. "Second-in-command?"

Or is it some kind of organization?
Team Leader Lin told her with a serious face that it was true. "We originally thought this was a big case, but we didn't expect it to be a super big case. They are an organization called the God Worship Cult. The one we destroyed in Fuxing County was just a small stronghold."

Unfortunately, those who are caught don't know much. Their own crimes are easy to uncover when investigated, but when you ask their superiors, even the top bosses only have one-way communication with their superiors.
