Zombie Life Begins in Hongxi Village

Chapter 149 A Slight Punishment

Before Lin Yi could even speak, the police officers started arguing.

The officers initially thought it was just a simple drowning accident, but Chen Longshi, with his sharp eyes, suddenly shouted—

He pointed to the woman's swollen ankle and shouted, "Something's up!"

The crowd gathered around to take a look and saw a clear, deep purple handprint on the woman's ankle, with distinct finger marks that could not have been made by soaking in seawater.

Well, an accidental incident has turned into a criminal case.

As soon as the criminal case was filed, Shi Chun and Lin You had a fierce conflict over the right to handle the case.

One of them was the sergeant of the South Police Station, and the other was the sergeant of the North Police Station. Both of them were arrogant and eager to make a name for themselves and be transferred to the city.

Most importantly, the body was found precisely at the border between the jurisdictions of the North and South Police Stations.

"Hmph, we discovered the body first, so it's our job to investigate."

Shi Chun put his hands on his hips and said with a domineering expression.

He was tall and strong, standing there like an iron tower. "Besides, Lin You, you were just transferred to Banwan Island today."

How many people on this island do you know? What cases are they handling?

Chen Longshi, Li Jingchun, go find a stretcher and carry the body back to the police station!

"Wait!" Lin You stepped in front of Chen Longshi and Li Jingchun, blocking their way, and said contemptuously, "Shi Chun, what do you know about handling cases if you're an amateur who hasn't received proper training?"

I'm an elite graduate of the Police Training School! Hong Kong Island is so chaotic because there are too many unprofessional laymen like you.

Wang Xiaoming, Lao Yutou, take the body back!

As soon as Lin You said this, Old Taro, who was standing behind him, changed his expression.

Old Taro joined the police force during its expansion recruitment years ago, but he never attended any police training school.

Lin You's use of "outsider" was like a slap in the face to him.

His face was contorted with wrinkles, but he reluctantly moved forward half a step because of orders.

Shi Chun was certainly not someone to be trifled with.

He retorted directly: "Whether I can solve a case or not is not up to you to decide!"

I was promoted to police chief based on my solid achievements in solving cases.

Unlike some people, who, despite attending police academy, are just ivory tower graduates who are nothing but useless office workers writing reports!

Upon hearing this, Lin You's eyes lit up. Instead of being angry, he laughed and pointed at Shi Chun's nose, saying:

"You, Shi Chun! How dare you openly look down on the Police Training School! The school was established by the Hong Kong British government to improve the quality of the police force. What do you mean by that?"

I think it's necessary to report this matter to Superintendent Robert in detail!

"Lin You, you—you're slandering me! When have I ever looked down on the police training school?!"

Shi Chun's expression changed drastically, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

He knew in his heart that if these words reached the ears of the foreign police superintendent, given the way those people in the Hong Kong British government acted, his future would be over.

Let alone being transferred to the city, he was lucky not to be assigned to guard a pond.

"Since you don't look down on the police training school, why don't you hurry up and leave? We, the North District, will handle this case!" Lin You said, knowing when to stop.

He didn't actually intend to report it, after all, he himself wasn't qualified to easily meet Superintendent Robert, the principal of the police academy.

If we can seize the power to handle the case, this trip will not have been in vain.

"Hmph... Let's go."

Shi Chun, having been caught red-handed, glared fiercely at Lin You before slinking away with Chen Longshi and Li Jingchun.

Lin Yi stood not far away, watching the whole farce unfold.

He couldn't help but exclaim in his heart, "Good heavens!" He knew Shi Chun, Chen Longshi, Li Jingchun, Lao Yutou, Wang Xiaoming, and Lin You all too well.

The police officers in these two films, "The Haunted Cop Shop" and "The Haunted Cop Shop," have somehow ended up together.

"What are you guys doing here?"

At this moment, Lin You noticed that Lin Yi and the others were staring in their direction, and somewhat displeased, he walked over and arrogantly said:

"Tell me your names, when you arrived at Half Bay Island, and whether you killed that woman?"

Lin Yi gave him a cold look, not even bothering to acknowledge him.

He'd seen far too many of these kinds of people. They thought they could act lawlessly just because they had a certain status. Who did they really think their tiger skin could intimidate?

Seeing Lin Yi's attitude, Lin You became even angrier.

He glared fiercely at Lin Yi, then glanced at the girls behind him, a hint of barely concealed jealousy flashing in his eyes.

He was originally a corrupt police officer in the North District of Hong Kong Island, who made a fortune by taking bribes, running opium dens, and lending money at exorbitant interest rates.

Some time ago, Lei Luo caught him red-handed and reported him to the foreign inspector for being tortured into confessing. That's why he was kicked to this godforsaken island.

He was already seething with anger and had nowhere to vent it, and Lin Yi's dismissive attitude completely enraged him.

This murder case just happened to need a culprit, and Lin You secretly decided to make Lin Yi the scapegoat, just like he had done in the cases he had committed before.

He was able to become a police chief by virtue of his "100% crime-solving rate," not by focusing on solving cases, but by pinning the blame on certain suitable people.

Why did he want to seize the power to handle cases? Wasn't it because he was 100% certain he could "solve the case"?!

The Lin Yi standing before him was the "murderer" he was looking for today.

Once Lin Yi is brought back to the police station, a few simple measures can solve the case.

Thinking of this, Lin You took out the handcuffs from his waist, waved them at Lin Yi, and a sinister smile appeared on his face.

Lin Yi looked at Lin You's face, which resembled Si Mu's, and could only shake her head.

They do look somewhat alike, but their character is worlds apart.

In the original series, this guy made things difficult for Wang Xiaoming at every turn, and even insulted and cursed Wang Xiaoming's mother in front of him. He also forced Wang Xiaoming to go swimming in the sea despite knowing that it was dangerous.

"They've really done all sorts of evil deeds!"

Looking at Lin You's life's merits and demerits, Lin Yi's eyes grew even colder.

Seeing Lin You swinging the handcuffs and about to walk over, a flash of red light quickly appeared in Lin Yi's eyes.

The five senses control unfolds silently.

In Lin You's perception, Lin Yi suddenly took off running, desperately fleeing into the distance along the beach.

Lin You shouted "Stop!" and took off after him. Little did he know, he was chasing nothing but thin air.

He ran wildly along the deserted beach, chasing after the enemy until he reached the sea, and even pulled out his gun and fired several shots into the air.

The bullets whizzed into the seawater, creating a few feeble splashes.

"Stop! Don't run!" Lin You shouted again, stepping into the seawater and wading through the water to chase after him. In the blink of an eye, the seawater was up to his waist.

"Inspector Lin, there's the sea ahead! We can't go any further! Stop right now!"

Seeing this, Wang Xiaoming and Lao Yutou rushed over to stop him.

Old Taro pulled out a handful of cinnabar from his pocket and slapped it all over Lin You's forehead, while chanting a few crude exorcism incantations.

But Lin You's forehead was red from being slapped with cinnabar, yet he didn't stop walking. Instead, he turned around and started punching and kicking Wang Xiaoming and Lao Yutou, cursing as he did so.

"You two bastards, trying to rebel? Get out of my way! Or I'll shoot you both!"

A hint of anger flashed in Wang Xiaoming's and Lao Yutou's eyes.

They exchanged a glance, then silently stepped aside, neither of them daring to approach.

They've already stopped them and tried to persuade them, but they still insist on rushing into the sea. What can they do?

Lin You glanced back at them, snorted, and then turned and continued chasing into the sea.

The seawater gradually rose above his shoulders, then above his head, until not a single bubble emerged.

Wang Xiaoming and Lao Yutou watched in horror as he disappeared into the sea, their faces filled with terror, and they quickly retreated more than ten meters.
