Chapter 784 801: Training Chief Police Officer
"Tsk! Arrogant maniac!" Qi Manlin rolled her eyes at Lin Mu.The two of them still ran to the pavilion in the mountain forest. After days of continuous training, Qi Manlin's skills had indeed improved a lot. According to her, almost no one in the criminal police team could match her, and her next plan was to test her skills against the armed police!
Of course, with Qi Manlin's current skills, she still needed some more practice before she could challenge the armed police!
However, being invincible in the criminal police team already made Qi Manlin very excited. With motivation and the taste of success, Qi Manlin learned with exceptional seriousness. She dreamed of one day being unbeaten within the armed police unit, and that feeling would be absolutely exhilarating!
Slap! Lin Mu suddenly slapped Qi Manlin on the butt for no apparent reason, and shamelessly pinched her perky butt as well!
"You big jerk, why did you hit me?" Qi Manlin cursed angrily.
"Your punches have no power, no rhythm, all soft and fluffy. It's like you're doing a square dance. How do you expect to fend off enemies like this? You must know that the ones you'll face aren't women but a bunch of big men. Even if you hit someone like this, it won't cause any harm!" Lin Mu explained logically. Although Lin Mu's words were right, for Qi Manlin, she was actually doing okay. Lin Mu just wanted to pinch her butt and found a convenient excuse.
Qi Manlin glared at Lin Mu with resentment, "Hmph, it's enough to just tell me, why did you have to hit my butt?"
"Uh... Sister, be content. Back in the day, when I was learning martial arts, the old man at home would whip me with a belt, set dogs on me, and often left me in the wilderness to coexist with the beasts. Look at you now, just getting a smack on the butt, so lucky!" Lin Mu wasn't lying, that old monster did train him that way.
To practice speed, dogs were set on me; if I couldn't outrun them, I got bitten unless I could subdue the dogs. To train reactions, the old man would use a whip; if my reactions were slow, the fiery whip would lash my body. Being placed in the wilderness with beasts was to train courage and willpower. If you can tame a beast, imagine how terrifying your willpower must be!
At the time, Lin Mu often got whipped. A so-called expert doesn't become one overnight but through long nights of hard training. The flashy, impressive exterior of experts hides the hardships they've endured!
Even Lin Mu felt emotional thinking about it. When he was young, Lin Mu's physical condition was not good, even worse than ordinary kids. But the old man, stubborn as he was, saw Lin Mu as a martial arts prodigy and took him to the deep mountain forests for intense training. Whether winter's cold or summer's heat, they finally unleashed the immense latent energy in Lin Mu's core, developing a vast Little Universe energy!
So in the end, Grandpa Lin's choice proved correct, as Lin Mu eventually became a super expert!
Qi Manlin, hearing Lin Mu's explanation, could only pout slightly but said nothing further! Every morning, Lin Mu would teach the Chief Police Officer one move to practice. No matter how simple or difficult, it was just one move!
Because Lin Mu understood that true mastery lies in thorough comprehension, not in learning many techniques. But this one move, Lin Mu required the Chief Police Officer to grasp its essence, to master it fully and apply it flexibly! That's what Lin Mu wanted to achieve!
After practicing, Lin Mu and Qi Manlin returned home, where Zhou Xun had already prepared breakfast. Waking up every morning to ready-made breakfast is truly a happy thing! Having a good wife and loving mother is undeniably important!
After breakfast, Zhou Xun, Qi Manlin, and Xiong Xiaoxiao went off to study or work. Even Xia Yuyi was busy with Dark Night Sect affairs at the transportation company!
At this moment, Lin Mu was waiting for a reply from Huo Yanggen. It wasn't the reply Lin Mu appeared to want, but rather the one Huo Yanggen himself chose to give. Only if Huo Yanggen gave this reply could Lin Mu trust that Huo Yanggen sincerely wanted to hand over the power of the Heaven and Earth Society!
If not, Lin Mu would be cautious. As everyone knew, Huo Yanggen was an old fox; one mustn't be careless. To gain someone's trust, you have to show some genuine actions, especially when Lin Mu and Huo Yanggen had such a tense relationship before! So, Lin Mu was waiting for Huo Yanggen's reply, secretly testing Huo Yanggen's sincerity.
However, instead of hearing from Huo Yanggen, he received a call from Shen Ji Yang. Lin Mu looked at the phone and couldn't help but chuckle to himself; this old guy ran quite fast last night!
But on the surface, Lin Mu still gave the other side enough face, not saying anything impolite, "Ah, Director Shen!" Lin Mu answered the call with a dry laugh.
"Boss Lin, how are you doing now? Were you hurt at all? I'm really sorry about last night." Shen Ji Yang quickly apologized to Lin Mu over the phone.
"Director Shen, I'm fine, don't worry."
"As long as you're okay, I can rest easy. So about last night...?"
"Last night, during the fight, I managed to take down Chekov, and by a stroke of luck, I escaped from Huo Yanggen's hands!" Lin Mu said with a smile.
"You took Chekov down?" Shen Ji Yang was surprised, then laughed, "Haha, Boss Lin, you're quite the hero."
"Haha, no heroics, it was just luck. By the way, Director Shen, is there anything you need?" Lin Mu laughed.
"Ah, nothing much, just calling to ask about last night and to apologize. I was too careless and didn't verify the information accurately!" Shen Ji Yang said apologetically over the phone.
"No worries, Director Shen, taking down a Chekov is worth it, haha!"
"Right, right, we can deal with Huo Yanggen later. Since that's the case, I won't disturb you, Boss Lin. Keep up the good work!" Shen Ji Yang replied.
"Mm, I'll let you know if there's any news!"
After hanging up the phone, Lin Mu sneered, "That old smooth operator!"
In Wancheng West District, Huo Yanggen sat on the sofa with a cigarette between his fingers, pondering whether to tell Lin Mu about the things he knew that Lin Mu didn't. If he did tell Lin Mu, he truly had no chance of overturning things and would have to willingly relinquish the power of the Heaven and Earth Society to Lin Mu. Though he'd still be the Sect Leader, he'd be a puppet, and that didn't sit well with him!
But if he didn't tell, how sharp of a guy was Lin Mu! Trying to make him believe without some sincerity? That's impossible!
