"Hehe, now this is a good comrade, we should have cooperated from the beginning, it would have been better for everyone, right? Alright, sign it! Once it’s signed, our task is complete," Water Buffalo said with a smile.
Yang Dacheng picked up the pen and signed his name on the demolition agreement. The contract was made in two copies, one for Water Buffalo and one for Yang Dacheng himself!
"Signed!" Yang Dacheng stood up and said.
Water Buffalo picked up the contract and gave it a look, nodding with satisfaction, "Not bad, Secretary Yang is indeed sensible. Nothing unpleasant happened as I imagined. If such a small amount of money were to cause a bloody disaster, it wouldn’t be worth it, am I right, Secretary Yang? Alright, the matter is done, let’s meet again when we have time!"
Water Buffalo waved his hand, left a copy of the contract, took his own copy, and walked out of Yang Dacheng’s house. After sending off Water Buffalo and his hooligans, Yang Dacheng let out a long sigh of relief, took out a recording pen from his pocket, checked it, and then turned off the recording. This recording pen was given to him by Lin Mu, and the conversation was recorded according to Lin Mu’s instructions.
"They’ve come out!" Qi Manlin patted Lin Mu on the shoulder and said.
Lin Mu was sitting in the car, looking towards the door of Yang Dacheng’s house, and indeed saw Water Buffalo, with a smug expression and a cigarette in his mouth, walking out of the courtyard.
As soon as Water Buffalo came out, a group of hooligans gathered around. As the saying goes, ’catch the leader first to catch the thieves’. Settling the Secretary was a good omen, and the rest of the work would be easier. With the Secretary’s signature, when shown to the other villagers, they would all comply. Water Buffalo arranged for groups of three to five to start the operation. If they were to sign household by household, it would take until late at night. With over twenty people in action, dividing into five groups made it much easier!
Once these arrangements were made, small teams of hooligans dispersed, heading towards different streets!
"Hey! Police sister, arrange for your people to arrest them when they act. As for Water Buffalo, the two of us will catch him personally," Lin Mu said.
"Okay!" Qi Manlin responded, took out the walkie-talkie and gave some instructions, and soon teams of plainclothes policemen appeared, heading in different directions to follow the hooligans.
After the dozen or so hooligans split up, only Water Buffalo and two other hooligans were left by the car. The three smoked a cigarette by the car, stood up, and then went into the house next to Yang Dacheng’s.
Lin Mu gave Qi Manlin a nod, "Police sister, let’s go. Get ready to arrest them, Water Buffalo has started to act!"
Lin Mu said as he and Qi Manlin got out of the car. By this time, Water Buffalo and the two others had already gone through the door of another house. After entering this family’s living room, Water Buffalo straightforwardly said, "Hey, this is the house demolition contract, please sign it!"
"We won’t sign it, you better leave now!" The homeowner immediately refused with an extremely firm tone.
Water Buffalo looked at the homeowner with a grim face and said, "If you don’t sign, don’t blame us for being rude. Your Secretary has already signed, so this contract you will sign whether you want to or not. There’s no choice!"
"Cut the crap, no matter what, I will not sign it!" The homeowner remained resolute.
"Oh? It seems you’re a tough one, refusing a toast only to drink a forfeit. Do you want to wait until you face death to regret it?" Water Buffalo said, placing the machete to the homeowner’s neck.
"Oh? Who dares to commit murder here in broad daylight? This is outright robbery!" As soon as the words fell, Lin Mu walked in with Qi Manlin with a smile.
Water Buffalo abruptly turned his head towards the door, only to see Lin Mu and a policewoman walk in leisurely with a cigarette. Water Buffalo was immediately startled, unable to understand how Lin Mu could appear here!
In Water Buffalo’s mind, Lin Mu was practically a devilish figure; he had suffered a major loss because of him last time!
"You, how are you here? I’ve given you all my money, and everything is settled. What else do you want?" Water Buffalo said in panic, the situation was a bit chaotic. A hooligan actually being scared was indeed surprising to Qi Manlin.
"Haha, don’t worry, kid. I’m not here because of last time. Oh, and you probably don’t know my name, right? I’ll tell you now, I am Lin Mu!" Lin Mu exhaled a puff of smoke proudly as he spoke.
"Lin Mu?!" Water Buffalo was taken aback because he had heard of Lin Mu’s reputation. In Wancheng’s underworld, Lin Mu was an absolute powerhouse. Someone of Water Buffalo’s level couldn’t deal with someone like him, and now Water Buffalo almost wet himself!
"Yes, I’m Lin Mu. I’m here this time because of the Liu Real Estate Company’s matter. Oh, I almost forgot to introduce, this is Qi Manlin, the head of the East City Public Security Bureau." Lin Mu pointed at Qi Manlin beside him.
Water Buffalo seemed dazed; with the police showing up in this situation, it doesn’t take much to guess the outcome. He was most likely caught in the act, and it was too late to argue!
Lin Mu blew out a puff of smoke and said, "Will you cooperate obediently, or do you want me to act?"
Water Buffalo was all too aware of Lin Mu’s strength. Even if there were thirty of them, it wouldn’t be enough against Lin Mu, let alone just three of them. He could only concede. They were utterly defeated this time; facing the formidable Lin Mu, Water Buffalo simply had no courage to resist!
"Hehe, since that’s the case, come with us!" Lin Mu waved his hand and walked out of the living room.
Water Buffalo and the two hooligans obediently followed Lin Mu out. Outside, the rest of the police officers returned in waves; all the twenty or so hooligans Water Buffalo brought were caught, not one escaped! The most update n0vels are published on noᴠelfire.net
They were caught red-handed, so there was no need for them to confess anything. Faced with the evidence, they had nothing to say. Lin Mu took the evidence from Secretary Yang Dacheng and returned to the police station with Qi Manlin, where they detained Water Buffalo and his group in the lockup!
In the office at the police station, Lin Mu listened to the recording submitted by Yang Dacheng and looked at the contract Yang Dacheng was forced to sign, nodding with satisfaction. With these two pieces of evidence, there was enough reason to exclude Liu’s Real Estate Company from the project contracting plan!
Lin Mu had blatant evidence of Liu’s Real Estate Company’s illegal demolitions. Even if Huang Wenhai wanted to protect Liu’s Company, it was impossible because the truth would eventually come out, and it might even drag Huang Wenhai down as well.
