Chapter 4001: Chapter 3989: Departure for Home

Jin Dawu stared intently at Lin Yi, waiting for him to continue speaking.

"You should be clear about the situation below. Zhao Yong and Han Zaisong are already dead. I’m giving you only one minute. If you don’t cooperate, you’ll join them."

Jin Dawu’s heart was pounding because he knew exactly what had happened below.

The people who kidnapped Zhao Yong were ruthless, shooting on a whim. Being captured by them himself, if he didn’t cooperate, he might end up just like Zhao Yong.

"Wha- what do you want?"

"Where’s the original Sheepskin Scroll?"

"I, I..."

Jin Dawu stammered, and Lin Yi pulled out his Dagger, placing it against his face.

"You’re running out of time. It’s best not to test my patience."

"In— in the safe within our Security Bureau."

"Take us to get it now. This is your last chance."

"But..."

Jin Dawu hesitated, "If I bring you to get it, they’ll definitely find out it was me, and my ending won’t be good."

"I can save your life."

"Re- really?"

"Of course," Lin Yi said calmly,

"Besides you, who else can access the original Sheepskin Scroll?"

"There’s another Vice Minister named Zheng Yan Chang."

"If you don’t want to die, do as I say."

"Alright, alright, don’t do anything rash. I’ll take you there now."

Controlling Jin Dawu, Lin Yi started changing clothes to prepare for the operation.

Buzz buzz buzz—

The sound of static came from his earpiece, with a message from Qiu Yuluo.

"The plan is proceeding smoothly. They got the items from the car and have started to retreat."

"Good."

Responding with a word, Lin Yi exhaled a sigh of relief.

Shouting during the escape was to inform Mammon’s people that there were items in the car.

They were smart enough to understand his message.

Zhao Yunhu drove and arrived near the Security Bureau 20 minutes later.

About a kilometer away, the car stopped in front of a KTV.

Despite the late hour, the place was still brightly lit, with people continuously coming and going, celebrating inside.

Once the car was stable, Lin Yi glanced around but didn’t notice Song Zhongtian.

The reason for choosing this location was the frequent comings and goings of people, offering concealment.

After waiting around ten minutes, a car pulled up next to them.

The driver’s window rolled down, revealing Song Zhongtian at the wheel.

Song Zhongtian quietly arrived and handed a small black box to Lin Yi.

The box was about half a palm in size, with a thickness of about one centimeter.

"Is this the smallest it gets?"

"Time was limited; this was the smallest I could find."

While speaking, Song Zhongtian handed a black controller to Lin Yi.

"What exactly do you need these things for?"

"You’ll find out tomorrow."

Saying this, Lin Yi took out a fake Sheepskin Scroll and handed it to Song Zhongtian.

"Find an opportunity tomorrow to give this to Che Zaihe and have him store it in the safe."

"Okay, is there anything else?"

"If you feel the time is right, go find Lee Yongjin; she will meet with you."

Song Zhongtian understood that Lin Yi was paving a way for him, with Lee Yongjin being the backup.

"Thank you."

"You’re welcome. Hope we meet again."

"I hope so too."

Lin Yi rolled up the car window, and Zhao Yunhu drove away.

Song Zhongtian stood there silently, watching until the taillights disappeared from view.

Soon, the two arrived at the Security Bureau one kilometer away.

Peering outside to survey the situation, it was pitch black all around, with only the streetlights shining.

Lin Yi turned back to look at Jin Dawu.

"It’s your turn. If you don’t want to die, cooperate well."

"Un- understood."

The three tidied up and got out of the car.

With Lin Yi’s coercion, Jin Dawu calmed down significantly and walked towards the Security Bureau.

Upon reaching the entrance, the main door was already locked.

However, there was still someone on duty in the reception area.

Jin Dawu dialed the reception room’s phone number, ordered the person to open the door without worrying if they were asleep.

In this strictly hierarchical country, as long as your position is high, you have the right to command those below you to serve you.

Soon, a middle-aged man came out, nodding and bowing.

Bending over, he opened the door from inside.

"Vice Minister Jin, you’re back."

Jin Dawu nodded indifferently, saying nothing more, as Lin Yi and Zhao Yunhu followed him to take the elevator to the fourth floor.

It was quiet here, with rooms on either side, their doors made of cast iron, like bank vaults.

With Jin Dawu leading, the three reached the innermost room.

Standing at the doorway, Jin Dawu entered the code on the keypad.

The buzz of electricity came through, and then there was a ’click’ sound.

The heavy metal door swung open, and Jin Dawu entered first.

With no one around, Jin Dawu felt intensely nervous, unsure of what to do next.

The room wasn’t very large, only about twenty square meters, with wooden shelves on either side, filled with numerous folders.

But diagonally ahead was a safe, which Lin Yi suspected might contain the original Sheepskin Scroll.

Besides this, Lin Yi noticed eight cameras, fully monitoring every corner of the room.

Leading the two, Jin Dawu approached the safe.

Lin Yi had a knife hidden in his sleeve, pressing subtly against the other’s lower back.

Jin Dawu, in a panic, entered the code.

Without making a sound, Zhao Yunhu stood behind Lin Yi to block the cameras’ view skillfully.

Beep beep beep—

The safe opened, allowing Lin Yi, using his night vision, to see the Sheepskin Scroll inside.

But Lin Yi didn’t take it; instead, he discreetly placed the item from Song Zhongtian underneath the scroll and gestured to Jin Dawu to indicate they could leave.

After exiting, the two deliberately left a gap so the surveillance inside could capture the Sheepskin Scroll, then closed the door.

Thus, the three withdrew and exited.

As they left, Lin Yi placed a pinhole camera in an inconspicuous corner, directly facing the safe.

This action went unnoticed by Jin Dawu.

Thus, the three exited and returned to the car.

"I’ve done everything you asked. Can I go now?"

"Go ahead; we don’t need you here anymore."

Jin Dawu departed like a pardoned man, slinking away.

"Boss, they’ve all returned to the hotel."

Lin Yi stretched, "The job is almost done. Prepare to return home."
