"Young man, I don't know whether to call you stupid or just plain dumb!"
"What do you mean?" the man said with a grim expression.
"What do you mean? Ha, everyone's trying to distance themselves from your brother-in-law right now, afraid of being implicated. You've provoked me; have you considered the consequences?"
The man's face immediately flushed red, a mixture of anger and fear.
"Director Zhou, would you like to know who his brother-in-law is?"
"Shut up, you old man!"
This guy really doesn't have a brain. He lost his temper after Ling Yi made a few Taunt remarks and threw a punch at Ling Yi.
But facing the fist about to hit his face, Ling Yi remained completely calm, a cold smile on his face, without even the slightest thought of dodging.
"Bang!"
Director Zhou, standing nearby, delivered a powerful side kick, striking the man squarely in the stomach and sending him flying more than two meters away, where he immediately fell to his knees.
" Li Rui!" Zhou Cheng's face was extremely gloomy.
He said to the person next to him, "Take his gun and handcuff him!"
Then, Zhou Cheng looked at Ling Yi and said, "I'm sorry!"
Ling Yi waved his hand dismissively, saying, "His sister was Guan Xiao San's Guan Qiang. Now that Guan Qiang is crippled, his sister has been implicated, her family property has been confiscated, and the siblings have lost their source of income."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Cheng immediately understood the reason.
He gave Li Rui the same look, as if he were an idiot.
Guan Qiang is finished. Anyone associated with Guan Qiang will be targeted. This is not just an achievement, but also a pledge of allegiance. The intricacies involved are not as simple as they seem on the surface.
Simply put, Li Rui is finished; he'll be severely punished.
"Old man, you're dead. My brother-in-law has already spent 100 million on the Dark Web to buy your and your family's lives. You won't live much longer."
Ling Yi paused, then said expressionlessly, "Thank you for telling me all this."
It seems that Li Rui's hatred for him isn't just about his financial resources being cut off; one can also tell from his words that this kid Guan Qiang.
"Boss, do you need me to remove the Kill Order from the Dark Web?" Ling Weiwei's voice came through the Bluetooth headset.
Ling Yi took out his phone and sent a message to Ling Weiwei.
"Modify the mission details: hide Ling Zhan and the others' information, leaving only my information. Also, increase the reward to one billion US dollars!"
"Receive!"
Since you want to play, then come on! Ling Yi is interested in seeing the underground forces of this world.
" Old Ling, don't worry, I will report this to my superiors and will ensure that you are not harmed in any way." Zhou Cheng's face was ashen.
" Li Yuefeng, Zhang Hailin, you two take this bastard back with you. I will interrogate him personally later."
Ling Yi simply watched quietly without saying a word.
Zhou Cheng didn't continue talking about that matter, but instead returned to the current case.
Zhou Cheng had someone knock on the door of room 1904.
A moment later, a middle-aged handsome man with a somewhat pale face opened the door. Upon seeing that it was the inspectors, his expression stiffened noticeably, and his pupils contracted sharply a few times.
They probably didn't expect the inspection to come so quickly.
Ling Yi and Zhou Cheng exchanged a glance; Cheng Zhihai was clearly suspicious.
From Ling Yi's perspective, Cheng Zhihai had a red exclamation mark above his head.
"Alert: Important evidence has been found in the trash can near the entrance of a fourth-degree murder case involving Cheng Zhihai."
The system provided direct, concrete evidence, even including hints, which was quite thoughtful.
Of course, even without the system notification, Zhou Cheng and his team would surely search every corner of the room and eventually find evidence in the trash can.
Now that we have the evidence, all that remains is to determine the method of the crime.
More than finding concrete evidence against Cheng Zhihai, Ling Yi was curious about Cheng Zhihai's method of disposing of the body.
How did he manage to dump the body 200 meters away from the Five-Seven Commercial Building?
After Zhou Cheng explained his purpose, Cheng Zhihai was very cooperative, but his acting was a bit lacking.
With a sorrowful expression, he said, " A-Ming is a genius. The company's success today is basically all thanks to A-Ming. I never expected him to be so extreme."
"You mean, Guo Ming committed suicide?" Zhou Cheng asked calmly.
Cheng Zhihai sighed and said, "The project the company is developing has hit a bottleneck. It's been almost two months without any progress, and A-Ming's mental state has clearly been off lately."
"Oh, if only I had noticed sooner."
At this moment, Su Xiaotian, who had been silent until now, suddenly spoke up, "That criminal who killed Guo Ming was really unlucky, and also a bit stupid!"
One sentence immediately drew everyone's attention.
The other inspectors couldn't help but look over. Why would this usually aloof and taciturn female inspector suddenly utter such a sentence?
Only Ling Yi and Zhou Cheng ignored Su Xiaotian and stared intently at Cheng Zhihai.
Upon hearing Su Xiaotian's words, Cheng Zhihai's expression instantly became flustered, and his already pale face turned even paler.
He couldn't help but glance at Su Xiaotian, then secretly stole a look at the window.
Ling Yi walked directly to the window and carefully inspected every corner of it.
He then added a witty remark to Su Xiaotian: "Officer Su, why do you say that?"
"If it were me, I would do it at night so no one would find out the body fell from the sky."
"That makes sense!"
Ling Yi said this, but he didn't think so at all.
Judging from the deceased's condition, it's easy to determine that he died from a fall.
Doesn't this beautiful inspector know this? She probably does. These words are clearly meant for Cheng Zhihai; she's testing Cheng Zhihai reaction.
Sure enough, Cheng Zhihai gave himself away, his eyes glancing at the trash can or the window every now and then.
Seeing Ling Yi checking the window, Zhou Cheng went straight to the trash can, put on gloves, and started rummaging through it.
After all, Cheng Zhihai was just an ordinary businessman. He might have a decent mental fortitude, but his acting skills were really lacking. After just a few words from Su Xiaotian, he was completely flustered.
Seeing this, Cheng Zhihai panicked even more.
At this moment, Cheng Zhihai must be under immense pressure.
"Moreover, he probably never expected that the deceased's face was basically undamaged; you could tell from the expression that it wasn't the expression of someone who had committed suicide."
"Yes, you've had some bad luck, haven't you, Mr. Cheng?"
As Ling Yi spoke, he had already stuck his head out of the window.
Ling Yi quickly noticed obvious scratches on the upper left corner of the window, and he roughly understood Ling Yi Cheng Zhihai's modus operandi.
"Your swinging technique is pretty good!"
"Ahem, Mr. Ling, I don't understand what you're talking about!" Cheng Zhihai feigned ignorance.
Zhou Cheng had already found a roll of fishing line, a pair of rubber gloves, and a cotton mask in the trash can. When he heard Ling Yi say "swinging on a swing," he suddenly realized what was going on.
He approached Cheng Zhihai and said, "First, use this mask to knock Guo Ming unconscious. Then, use a fishing line to throw him out the window in a short parabolic arc, thus achieving long-distance body disposal."
Ling Yi Taunt, "Young man, have you been reading too many detective novels? Do you think you can get away with suspicion just because the body wasn't found under the Five-Seven Commercial Building?"
Cheng Zhihai wanted to refute, but he didn't know how.
"There are too many loopholes in this. Putting everything else aside, just look at Guo Ming's identity. Based on that alone, you've cleared yourself of suspicion!"
Cheng Zhihai slumped in his chair, forcing a bitter smile. "The time was too short. Guo Ming is going to shut down some of ' Ten Thousand Solutions's' functional permissions this afternoon. If those permissions are disabled, the software will be completely worthless!"
"I can't allow him to do that."
Zhou Cheng and the others didn't know about the " Ten Thousand Solutions " player, but Ling Yi already did.
The case is now considered solved; all that remains is to go through the proper procedures.
Ling Yi also received a reward notification from the system.
After saying goodbye to Zhou Cheng, Ling Yi left ahead of time.
He has more important things to do now.
Although the missions on the Dark Web have been modified, Ling Yi cannot guarantee that the assassins or Hire who accept the missions will not threaten his family to force him to comply.
He himself is not afraid, but his family is his bottom line and weakness.
What Ling Yi needs to do is provide Ling Zhan and his group with sufficient security measures.
Buy three more T800s?
No, although the T800 is powerful, the trouble will be even greater if it is exposed.
Ling Zhan and his team frequently travel by plane, and with the T800's all-metal frame, they would never pass through security.
Close-quarters protection is virtually impossible.
Ling Yi opened his system list.
My Free Attribute Points have reached 225, and my points have also accumulated back to 470.
Ling Yi evenly distributed the Free Attribute Points across all attributes.
Then I opened the Points Store!
Seeing the grayed-out list in the Points Store, Ling Yi couldn't help but frown.
All supernatural items turned into gray cesium, and most of the high-tech products also turned into gray cesium.
For example, the T800 and TX series robots that were previously available are no longer for purchase.
This puzzled Ling Yi.
"System, what's with this Points Store?"
"Ding! No Transcendent powers have been detected in the current world. Therefore, all Transcendent items are imprisoned."
Why were you able to buy it before?
Ling Yi asked again, but the system remained silent this time.
Fine, you're the system, you're in charge.
Fortunately, the X-Gene Shapeshifting ability I purchased earlier is still there; otherwise, it would be a real rip-off if the system took it back too.
Ling Yi didn't care about this. Even without the cheat system, he had still lived comfortably in this Parallel World for sixty years.
Even without Transcendent abilities or advanced technology, Ling Yi's current attributes are already powerful enough.
All attributes reached 65 points, more than six times that of the average person, which is quite extraordinary.
What more could you want?
Soon, Ling Yi found something good in the product list.
The RS2 Concealment Unmanned Camera Ball is only the size of a 3mm diameter marble. It is solar-powered and has a standby time of over 36 hours without recharging.
Theoretically, it can standby around the clock as long as there is sunlight.
Made of special alloy material, it is extremely hard, weighs 15g, and is resistant to high temperatures and extreme cold.
It has a top speed of over 300 mph and can accelerate from 0 to 100 mph in just 0.15 seconds. It requires 20 points to purchase.
As for how this thing flies and what its power system is, the product information only states one sentence: anti- Gravity engine.
Is this thing considered cutting-edge technology? Of course it is. If this isn't cutting-edge technology, then what is?
As for why it wasn't locked, the system probably thinks it's just a camera with a single function?
Single function? Ha!
Ling Yi spent all his points in one go and bought 22!
