Report

Ye Zi looked at the remains of the brain in the trash can. It seemed that she did ask Yao Anmian to buy an alarm clock for her because the one at home was broken. She always forgot to buy one, but ever since Lin Yan moved into her house, she had a human-shaped alarm clock and had long forgotten about it.

Now that she thought about it …

Ye Zi's facial muscles twitched slightly. She quietly picked up her phone and dialed Yao Anmian's number.

Beep beep beep …

After the busy tone, a robotic female voice came through the phone. "Sorry, the number you have dialed is currently unavailable …"

Ye Zi looked at Lin Yan and said innocently, "No one is listening."

Lin Yan smiled faintly and turned to look at the quartz clock on the wall. "Then go to the detective agency and tell him in person."

He took his car keys and coat. "I'll send you there."

"You'll send me?" Ye Zi frowned and looked at him. "Today is Monday. Don't you need to go back to the company for a regular meeting?"

Ye Zi remembered that Lin Yan would return to the company early every Monday for a regular meeting. But today, he actually said that he would send her to work.

Lin Yan looked at his watch. "There's still time."



Ye Zi sat in Lin Yan's black Jeep Cherokee. She was so shocked that her eyeballs almost fell out. Yao Anmian stood outside the detective agency. His whole body was splashed with red paint. Only his pair of moving eyes could prove that he was a living person and not a statue covered with red paint.

Lin Yan was the first to come back to his senses. He unbuckled his seatbelt and rushed out of the car.

"What's going on?!" Lin Yan's face was solemn, and his eyes were filled with coldness.

Yao Anmian seemed to be still in shock. He was thin and weak. Coupled with his lack of exercise, the red paint made him choke and cough. "Lin, Mr. Lin … you, you go and see them first."

Lin Yan knew that something must have happened at the detective agency. He hurriedly kicked open the door and saw Jian Xia hugging To Look Around, curled up in the corner of the detective agency. Flash Dance Network

Lin Yan walked over and asked Jian Xia with a frown, "What happened?"

When Jian Xia heard Lin Yan's name, she raised her head tremblingly. Her pupils shrank in her eyes, and tears rolled down her cheeks like beads from a broken necklace.

After sobbing for a while, Jian Xia said, "Just now, a group of people rushed into the detective agency and smashed it. Before they left, they even splashed red paint. If it wasn't for Yao Anmian blocking me and Panpan, I'm afraid …"

"Did you call the police?!" Lin Yan asked in a low voice.

Jian Xia nodded slightly. Then, she shook her head. "I wanted to call the police, but we're a detective agency. An Dan said that if we called the police, it would affect business, so …"

Lin Yan turned his head and looked at the door. Ye Zi didn't care about anything else. She returned to the detective agency with the help of An Dan and sat on a chair at the door.

From the beginning to the end, she didn't say a word. Her cold face was covered with a layer of frost. It was as if the temperature in the detective agency had dropped a few degrees along with Ye Zi's expression.

"Don't move!"

Ye Zi finally spoke, but it wasn't just for Yao Anmian. She rubbed her eyes. "Don't let the paint get into your eyes. I've already called an ambulance. Don't worry, it'll be fine."

Yao Anmian had never seen such a scene. He was just an IT technician. To Look Around, his skills were probably not as good as Yao Anmian's. Moreover, Ye Zi was worried that the red paint would harm him, so she called an ambulance.

"Boss." Yao Anmian was like a girl. Tears welled up in his eyes. He looked at Ye Zi without blinking. "It's better not to call an ambulance. If this matter gets out of hand, it will affect the reputation of our detective agency."

"Reputation is nothing!" Ye Zi shouted angrily. "I want all of you to stand in front of me in perfect health. No one can hurt a single hair on your head."

Yao Anmian cried. Although he had just been scolded by his boss over the phone, his heart was filled with sorrow after hearing his boss's words.

Ye Zi nodded at him. She patted Yao Anmian's shoulder with her fair hand. Her hand was stained with the red paint. "Who was the troublemaker just now?"

Yao Anmian pursed his lips. He turned to look at Jian Xia and To Look Around. He looked like he wanted to say something but stopped himself.

"I heard from the leader that it was some Miss Qin." Jian Xia said on behalf of Yao Anmian.

Ye Zi knitted her brows. Every single person with the surname Qin that she knew flashed through her mind.

Miss Qin …

Oh right!

How could she forget that there was a Miss Qin who was unhappy with her — Qin Yuran.

Qin Yuran was Lin Yan's die-hard fan. In order to get a chance to talk to Lin Yan, she gave up her generous family background and became the assistant to the president of Lam's Group.

"I got it." Ye Zi nodded. She looked around and finally, her gaze locked on a baseball bat in the detective agency. She walked over and picked it up. She weighed it in her hand and it fit her hand.

She turned to look at Yao Anmian and asked in a low voice, "How long has it been since the troublemaker left?"

"About five minutes," Yao Anmian said.

Ye Zi's gaze was like a lioness protecting her cubs. She looked at Lin Yan and said word by word, "Help me look after them."

With that, she picked up the baseball bat and rushed out of the detective agency.

Ye Zi's phone was connected to the detective agency's surveillance equipment. She could easily find the troublemaker. The license plate was Bin A …

She walked along the road outside the detective agency and turned left to the main street. It was rush hour, so their car shouldn't have gone far.

Ye Zi narrowed her eyes. She looked at the direction of the troublemaker's car on her phone and ran in that direction.

The traffic was heavy, and the traffic was heavy.

About 500 meters ahead, a black business car stopped. The license plate was the same car that had just caused trouble in the detective agency.

The baseball bat in Ye Zi's hand rubbed against the ground, making a series of clanking sounds.

She walked straight to the car, swung the baseball bat in her hand, and smashed the car window.

"Bang!"

With a loud bang, the car's windshield was smashed into pieces by Ye Zi. She hit the hood of the car with the baseball bat and roared, "All of you, get out of the car!"

The people in the car had all been paid to cause trouble. Who would have thought that they would meet such a reckless person?

The driver was a little confused. He turned to look at his accomplice in the front passenger seat.

"Are you all f * cking deaf? Didn't you hear what I said?"

The man in the front passenger seat glanced at Ye Zi and took a deep breath. He said in a low voice, "It's fine. We have more people, so we don't have to be afraid of her. We've already taken her money, so we can't just return it."

With that said, he got out of the car first.

However, as soon as he arrived in front of Ye Zi, he pretended to be a hooligan. Before he could prepare his opening remarks, Ye Zi waved her hand and hit him with the bat. He held his head and rolled on the ground, howling incessantly.

Ye Zi fiercely kicked him in the stomach. Her bloody eyes glared angrily at the rest of the men in the car. "Today, one by one, if this great aunt doesn't let you go out horizontally, my surname isn't Ye!"

These guys were all gangsters in the neighborhood. Moreover, they were the kind of people who had accomplished nothing.

Smoking, drinking, and flirting with girls, they were all experts. However, when they saw a reckless girl like Ye Zi, their legs would probably tremble.

Last night, a beautiful woman found the man who had just been beaten up by Ye Zi. She offered two hundred thousand yuan and asked them to go to a detective agency called "Scent Detection" to cause trouble.

The few of them added up the two hundred thousand dollars, and each of them would get fifty thousand dollars. So, they made up their minds and took the job. Imitating the scene in the movie Young and Dangerous, they rented a black business car and went to the Scent Sniffing Detective Agency to cause trouble.

Now, it was impossible to get off the tiger's back, and it was difficult to advance or retreat.

The car was blocked in the middle of the road, and they couldn't leave. The brothers looked at each other. They were all men in their twenties, and Ye Zi was just a little girl. Although she had a "weapon" in her hand, it was difficult for two fists to fight against four hands. So, they steeled their hearts and rushed out of the car to surround Ye Zi.

However, before anyone could speak, Ye Zi took the lead and knocked down another man. The baseball bat in her hand was made of metal. How could an egg hit a stone? Another man fell to the ground, holding his head.

"One by one. If we don't clear things up today, no one wants to leave!"

Ye Zi was infuriated. Although her skills were mediocre, with the rage in her chest and the baseball bat in her hand, she wanted to let them know that her people weren't to be bullied so easily.

The other two men looked at each other and rushed toward Ye Zi without saying a word.

But at this moment, Lin Yan caught up. Just as the two of them were about to rush in front of Ye Zi, his tall and straight figure stood in front of Ye Zi and easily dealt with them with one punch.

Lin Yan turned around and snatched the baseball bat from Ye Zi's hand. He wiped off the fingerprints on it and gripped the handle tightly. Then, he asked, "Are you hurt?"

Ye Zi shook her head. Her face was red, and she looked at Lin Yan while panting. "I'm fine. Why are you here? Didn't I ask you to look after Sleeping Pills and the others?"

"Qin Chen is nearby. I just asked him to come."

Ye Zi didn't know who called the police, but she could hear the sound of sirens from afar.

Of course, Lin Yan heard it too. His face was tense, and he said to Ye Zi in a low voice, "You don't know anything about what just happened. I was the one who hit them."

"But …" Ye Zi was stunned. Then, she understood why Lin Yan had snatched the baseball bat.
