Chapter 3816: Chapter 3807: Threat
Lin Yi came out of the building and got into the car.
Just as he fastened his seatbelt, the phone in his pocket rang.
It was a call from Zhao Yuhuan.
But as soon as he answered the call, he heard Zhao Yuhuan’s sobbing.
"What’s the matter? Don’t cry."
"Lin Bro, I’ve been threatened. They told me not to investigate Chuangrong’s matter anymore."
"Someone threatened you?" Lin Yi’s expression changed, "Give me the address, I’ll come to see you, we can talk slowly face-to-face."
"Okay."
After hanging up the phone, Lin Yi received the location sent by Zhao Yuhuan and accelerated towards it.
The distance between them was not far, and he arrived in just over twenty minutes.
From a distance, he saw Zhao Yuhuan standing at the door.
Lin Yi parked the car in front of her. Zhao Yuhuan opened the car door, got in, and the traces of tears at the corner of her eyes were not yet dry.
"Stop crying, tell me slowly what happened."
It was better if she didn’t speak, but as soon as she did, Zhao Yuhuan’s tears fell again.
"I just went downstairs to pick up a package. When I was about to return home, I felt someone was following me. Just as I turned back, they suddenly rushed over, pinned me to the side, and held a knife to my neck, telling me not to investigate Chuangrong anymore."
Zhao Yuhuan wiped her tears, "Lin Bro, you should be careful too. I guess they will come for you."
"You don’t have to worry about my safety. Let me ask you a question." Lin Yi looked at Zhao Yuhuan and said:
"Do you still want to investigate this matter?"
"Yes!"
Zhao Yuhuan answered firmly without hesitation.
"If we are intimidated by them, there will be no fairness and justice in society, and no one will speak for the common people."
"Well done, I didn’t misjudge you."
Lin Yi handed a tissue to Zhao Yuhuan, "Wipe your tears, I’ll take you home."
"Lin Bro, you also need to be careful, they found me, they will definitely find you."
"I wish they would come to me," Lin Yi said:
"Anyway, you don’t have to worry or be afraid. I will handle it."
"You mustn’t act impulsively."
"Don’t worry, I know what to do. Let’s go, I’ll take you back."
Lin Yi locked the car and went with Zhao Yuhuan into the community, taking her home.
"Lin Bro, sorry to have taken up your time after work."
"Don’t think too much about it. Anyway, I have nothing to do when I get back."
Standing at the unit entrance, Lin Yi waved to Zhao Yuhuan, watching her walk into the building.
Lin Yi turned to leave, and at the same time, his expression darkened. He took a mask from the car and walked towards the community property office.
"Hello, I would like to view the surveillance near building 7."
"Did something happen?" The on-duty staff stood up and asked.
"A friend of mine was just followed by someone. I need to check the surveillance and then file a police report. I’d appreciate your cooperation."
If it were other trivial matters, the property office might not care, but when it comes to stalking or following, it becomes a matter of principle and they must fully cooperate.
"Please follow me."
Following the staff, they went to the basement, where the property’s surveillance was set up.
Arriving at the surveillance room, the staff explained the situation to the colleague responsible for monitoring, who was also proactive, pulled a chair over for Lin Yi to sit down, and began retrieving the surveillance footage near building 7.
By this time, Lin Yi already had a rough idea in his mind.
Such a low thing was unlikely to be done by Sun Hancheng.
So there were only two suspects left.
One is their marketing department deputy manager, Song Kangning, and the other is Gao Shengjun.
And the person executing this would possibly be Zhang Haolong.
But the specifics still had to wait for the surveillance to be retrieved to know.
Since it was something that had just happened, the surveillance was quickly retrieved.
The content was almost identical to what Zhao Yuhuan described, but Lin Yi noticed something new.
The two people who followed her had been following her since she got off work.
After going upstairs, they waited in the corner of the community for an opportunity.
When Zhao Yuhuan came down to pick up the package, it was already dark, and there were few people in the community, providing them the chance to act.
Lin Yi watched the surveillance footage closely, both were wearing masks, and one of the person’s physique indeed resembled that of Zhang Haolong.
"Can you help me retrieve the surveillance at the main entrance?"
"Sure."
Ten minutes later, through the surveillance at the main entrance, Lin Yi found the car they came in, it was a black Volkswagen sedan, and he noted down the license plate number.
Lin Yi had some impression of this car; when he went to Zhang Haolong’s company, he seemed to have seen this car.
"Thanks for your cooperation, I’ll be leaving now."
"If you need anything, feel free to come over. If anything like this happens, we will cooperate fully."
"Okay, thank you."
After thanking them, Lin Yi left, and simultaneously sent the license plate number to Xiao Bing asking her to check who the owner was.
Returning to the car, Lin Yi did not go home but headed to Zhang Haolong’s company.
Just parked the car when he received a call from Xiao Bing.
"Lin Bro, found out that the car belongs to someone named Li Jiahao, but he hasn’t been using the car and lent it to Zhang Haolong."
"Okay, got it."
Xiao Bing’s investigation results matched exactly what Lin Yi imagined.
Although it was unclear who was behind the scenes, finding the people involved means they could trace it back.
After hanging up, Lin Yi got out of the car and walked toward Zhang Haolong’s company.
Inside, the lights were still on, Zhang Haolong and the others were drinking and eating.
Even with a door between, their bragging voices could be heard.
Creaaaak—
Lin Yi pushed open the door, hearing the sound, Zhang Haolong and the others looked toward the door.
Upon seeing Lin Yi, their expressions instantly changed.
"What are you here for, I told you we don’t accept interviews."
"I’m not here to interview you." Lin Yi said in a low voice: "You went to find my colleague just now, right? Even threatened them not to investigate Chuangrong’s matters, didn’t you."
Zhang Haolong immediately changed expression.
"What are you talking about! Don’t frame someone, I didn’t do anything."
"Surveillance footage has already been retrieved, pretending to be mad or foolish is pointless now."
Zhang Haolong squinted his eyes, his expression seemed to decide not to fake innocence anymore.
"Buddy, we’re all just trying to make a living, no need to go all out. Name a price, if it’s something we can do, we’ll certainly meet it."
"If I truly needed your money, I wouldn’t be in this line of work." Lin Yi replied:
"Tell me, who directed you to do this—is it Gao Shengjun or Song Kangning?"
"I don’t know who you’re talking about, but I advise you to leave this alone, don’t end up in a mess."
"I can’t do that, you’ve even threatened my colleague, this matter has to be dealt with."
"Damn it, you’re asking for trouble."
Drunk on liquor, Zhang Haolong grabbed the bottle and swung it at Lin Yi.
