Chapter 741 758: Collaboration with the Police
Lin Mu, naturally, was not ambiguous. He secretly channeled his True Qi, causing a rush of True Qi within him to surge upward, creating a countering momentum against Huo Yanggen's. Just as both sides were about to make a move, a group of police officers in uniform entered from outside! Leading them was none other than Shen Ji Yang, the director of the Public Security Bureau of Wancheng West District!Once the police entered, they immediately surrounded Lin Mu and Huo Yanggen, while another group of officers began dispersing the guests in the venue! Soon, uninvolved personnel in the venue were dispersed by the police!
"Hehe, gentlemen, let me introduce myself first. I am Shen Ji Yang, the director of the Public Security Bureau of Wancheng West District. I just got the news that there seems to be some conflict between the two of you, and your men have also had altercations, so I came by specifically to take a look!" Shen Ji Yang said with a smile.
Lin Mu and Huo Yanggen exchanged a glance. At this moment, Shen Ji Yang's appearance was indeed unexpected. Since he had arrived, the imminent showdown was naturally off the table. Even if they still wanted to fight, they could hardly do so in front of the public security director—that would mean asking for a free stay in jail!
Although a district director is not a big official, he holds considerable power and possesses firearms, so naturally, face must be given!
"Hehe, Director Shen, it's nothing serious, just two groups of brothers sparring a bit!" Lin Mu said with a chuckle.
Of course, everyone knew perfectly well what was happening; Lin Mu's words were simply an excuse to back down!
"Hehe, yes, Director Shen, this is your turf. How could we cause trouble here? Right? Rest assured, Director Shen, we won't trouble you!" Huo Yanggen followed with a chuckle.
The principle that civilians do not fight officials is well understood by everyone!
Shen Ji Yang nodded, "Hmm, understood, understood, nothing really happened. President Du, no need to be agitated, just take care of your injured. Also, Boss Lin, please give me some face; it would be hard to explain to my superiors if any trouble arises!"
Shen Ji Yang maintained a very good and relatively neutral attitude. In this situation, there's no need to offend anyone, and it's not a big deal!
For Shen Ji Yang, as long as there is no impact, that's what matters. As for other grudges, Shen Ji Yang seems unwilling to interfere!
"Hehe, Director Shen, you're overstating it. How could I cause you trouble? Rest assured, I will definitely support your work!" Lin Mu smiled, considering his position, he had to give some face. Then he said, "Director Shen, if there's nothing else, I'll take my leave!"
Lin Mu greeted them and then left the dance floor with Earth Wolf!
Shen Ji Yang glanced at Huo Yanggen, said nothing else, and waved his hand, "Withdraw, withdraw!"
After leaving the dance floor, Lin Mu walked to his car and was about to get in when he heard Shen Ji Yang's voice from behind!
"Boss Lin, hold on a moment!" Shen Ji Yang waved at Lin Mu and then walked over to him.
Lin Mu smiled at the approaching Shen Ji Yang and asked, "Director Shen, is there something else?"
"Hehe, yes, a little matter. Would it be possible to talk in the car?" Shen Ji Yang asked.
"Of course, please, Director Shen!" Lin Mu opened the car door, and the two of them got in.
In the car, Lin Mu and Shen Ji Yang sat in the back.
"Director Shen, what is it that you wish to discuss?" Lin Mu asked.
"Hehe, Boss Lin, I'd like to talk about the Heaven and Earth Society!" Shen Ji Yang said.
"The Heaven and Earth Society? Hehe, that's not something you should be discussing with me. Don't worry, Director Shen, I won't act against the Heaven and Earth Society under your nose, since any incidents would reflect on you. I understand this, and I'll be careful!" Lin Mu chuckled.
"Boss Lin, you misunderstood my meaning. That's not what I meant. I'm not just talking about this issue between you and Heaven and Earth Society but about affairs concerning them in general." Shen Ji Yang explained.
"Director Shen, what do you mean?" Lin Mu asked.
"Hehe, the relationship between Boss Lin and Director Lin, as well as with the government, is something I'm well aware of. So I trust you greatly. Let me explain; it's like this: to be honest, Boss Lin, our West District police have had their sights on the Heaven and Earth Society for a while now. Recently, we found out that Heaven and Earth Society has become very close with a group of Russians. As for what they are up to, we haven't figured that out yet, but I feel there might be a conspiracy. I've long heard of your capabilities, Boss Lin, so I hope to cooperate with you to investigate this matter and deal with the Heaven and Earth Society together. This matter cannot be solely handled by the police, and coincidentally, it might resolve your conflicts with Heaven and Earth Society." Shen Ji Yang stated.
Lin Mu nodded, understanding the implication behind Shen Ji Yang's words—in essence, an alliance to deal with the Heaven and Earth Society!
It truly was unexpected. It turned out that the Wancheng West District police had also set their sights on Huo Yanggen, this old fellow! Of course, according to what Shen Ji Yang said, they seemed to know some matters about Heaven and Earth Society and the Tsar Organization, but not specifics—perhaps Shen Ji Yang was just feigning ignorance, seeking Lin Mu's help!
But regardless, with Shen Ji Yang intervening and helping, things seemed a bit simpler, allowing them to rightfully deal with Heaven and Earth Society!
"Hehe, to be frank, Director Shen, I know a bit about the situation you mentioned. The Heaven and Earth Society indeed has close interactions with a group of Russians, and their goal is to open a drug smuggling route from the Tsar to Wancheng. If they succeed in establishing this route, the impact on Wancheng would be significant. If Director Shen can indeed tackle this issue, it would undoubtedly be a great deed for the people of Wancheng!" Lin Mu did not hide anything and shared what he knew, as it didn't matter since Shen Ji Yang was the director of West District. It might even facilitate forming a unified front with the police, which would actually be quite beneficial.
"What? Establish a drug smuggling route?" Shen Ji Yang was visibly shocked upon hearing this news from Lin Mu.
"Yes, that's right. I learned of this through other channels. It should be accurate. The Tsar Organization is a very powerful foreign organization, so this matter should not be underestimated!" Lin Mu nodded and said.
"I have long felt that the Heaven and Earth Society has been restless lately. Indeed, there is something fishy going on. I never expected they would connect with foreign powers. Then the Heaven and Earth Society must be eradicated from Wancheng!"
Lin Mu nodded, "Director Shen, what's your plan? Right now, they only have this intention to cooperate; to be frank, they haven't taken concrete actions yet. Without evidence, I think it's wise not to act rashly to avoid alerting them!"
Shen Ji Yang nodded, "Hmm, you're right, Boss Lin. Indeed, we cannot act hastily; this cannot be rushed. We best understand the situation thoroughly. During this period, I'll arrange for people to closely monitor the Heaven and Earth Society. When the time comes, I'll need your help, Boss Lin."
