You Deserve It
Lingshan blushed a little as she listened to the praises from her subordinates. She looked at Lin Yi, who was lying on the ground as if nothing had happened. She felt very conflicted.
She told them to bring Lin Yi back to the police station, and that she'd be heading back soon. She hung up after that.
She'd definitely get a lot of credit this time- she could already imagine the smile on the director's face when he saw her, but she couldn't bring herself to be happy at all.
There was no other reason than that Lin Yi had found the robbers, and she didn't know what to do.
"Hello?" Lingshan hung up and waited for a while, but Lin Yi didn't say anything. She turned around and crouched down, looking at Lin Yi. "We found the kidnappers. How did you do it?"
"Weren't you following me?" Lin Yi's eyes were half-open as he looked at Lingshan. What a majestic sight … …
"......" Lingshan thought to herself. She had indeed been following him, but he'd been running around aimlessly, and I had no idea how he'd found the robbers at all.
Plus, what made him so sure that the robbers were at the bottom of the cliff?
"Observation." Lin Yi, naturally, wouldn't tell her about the jade. "Careful observation and bold deduction. I walked around the mountain without a clue, but I didn't really have no clue! "
"Oh?" Lingshan was starting to believe Lin Yi's words- it looked like he'd been walking around aimlessly, but it wasn't really aimless- after all, Lin Yi had found the robbers.
"I just did what the robbers would do!" Lin Yi said. "The robbers would've done the same thing when they first came up the mountain, running around aimlessly. They didn't have any recon or counter recon training, so they wouldn't have been able to look for a hiding spot carefully. They're not like you guys, they're not professionals!
So, I thought about things from the robbers' point- what would I do if I were them? That's why I wandered around the mountain. I couldn't find a place to hide. Eventually, I set my eyes on the place that people would most likely overlook and would least suspect. If I were a robber, I would take the risk and send someone to explore the cliff to see if there was a cave below.
If there is, then it will be very difficult to be discovered if I hide inside. With enough food, I can basically live peacefully for a while. When the limelight is over and the checks are not strict, then I can find an opportunity to escape. "
"That's it?" Lingshan, on the other hand, felt that Lin Yi was making up some nonsense. It made sense, and it explained why he was wandering around the mountain earlier.
"What else can I do?" Lin Yi shrugged. "Did I bring any high-tech equipment?"
"Not really." Lingshan nodded, believing Lin Yi's words. "But, that's a pretty bold guess."
"It's not bold. Since the robbers aren't as professional as you guys are, do you think they're more professional than you guys?" Lin Yi asked. "So, if they're not, then they're taking the risk and hiding in a dangerous place."
"No matter what, thank you!" Lingshan thought that Lin Yi's method of searching was way too simple-it was almost like a joke, but she couldn't say anything since he'd found them.
"You're welcome. I was hired by Mister Chu. These people are trying to harm Miss Chu, so it's only natural that I cooperate with you guys to find them. No need to thank me." Lin Yi was telling the truth this time.
"No wonder Captain Yang would recommend you to me." Lingshan said. "But, who did you learn all this from?"
"Ah, we just have different ways of thinking." Lin Yi didn't answer the question directly. "You're looking at it from a police point of view, I'm looking at it from a normal person's point of view."
"Then how long are you going to keep looking?" Lingshan suddenly changed the topic. "Should I keep lying down for you to look at? Should I open up my collar too? "
"Ahem …" Lin Yi coughed dryly. Lingshan had seen where he was looking, and he'd been talking so much with a straight face. This made Lin Yi a little embarrassed. "I'm looking at the sky …"
"Then keep looking. I'm leaving." Lingshan stood up and turned to leave.
"I'm not looking anymore. Let's go." Lin Yi jumped up from the ground and patted the dust off his clothes.
The police line at the foot of the mountain had been removed, but the two officers on duty were still there. They were waiting for Lingshan to come down from her car.
"Captain Song, you're the best! You just walked around the mountain and you found their hideout!" Evidently, the two officers had received the news that the robbers had been arrested.
Lingshan blushed. This wasn't her work at all, it was Lin Yi who'd found it! She looked at Lin Yi from the corner of her eyes, but he acted as if he hadn't heard anything, walking towards the car and getting ready to get in …
Lingshan breathed out in relief and turned to the two officers. "You guys leave too. I still have something to do. I'll be back in a bit."
"Alright, Captain Song." The two officers got into their own car.
Lingshan opened the door and got in with Lin Yi. She quickly started the car and left the place. What the two had said just now made her feel very embarrassed.
"Remember, this work is yours. It has nothing to do with me." Lin Yi said suddenly.
"Ah?" Lingshan paused and looked at Lin Yi, a little surprised. What did he mean?
"Drive properly. Watch the road." Lin Yi reminded. "Only you know about this. Don't tell anyone else. I have a lot of things to do right now. I don't have time to deal with other things."
"There's a reward at the police station. Anyone who can provide information about the robbers will get two hundred thousand. You don't want it?" Lingshan didn't understand why Lin Yi was avoiding the responsibility so cleanly.
"I do, but I don't want trouble." Lin Yi said. "Do you really think these people are the kidnappers? That there's no one behind them? "
"You're saying that you're afraid that the people behind them will take revenge on you?" Lingshan was starting to understand what Lin Yi was saying.
"Not revenge. I know who the people behind them are." Lin Yi shrugged nonchalantly. "I ruined their plans. Naturally, they'll know of my existence. But that's not the trouble I'm talking about. I don't want to get involved in what happens after this. I'm only employed by Pengzhan. Do you understand? "
"Just say that you don't want to meddle in other people's business. You don't need to talk so much nonsense!" Lingshan was pissed. So the reason Lin Yi said all this was so that she wouldn't have to bother him in the future!
