Chapter 35: Chapter 35 Police Arrival

"Boss, if you're looking for professional security, I suggest getting a professional security company. They have many professional security guards and bodyguards, but the price..." Jiayun Lee hesitated, then said.

In her opinion, the family backing Lin Yun was likely not ordinary, they should be aware of such matters. She didn't know whether Lin Yun was suggesting she could contact a security company or he had just forgot about it, or wanted to save some money by hiring informally.

She pondered, then decided to ask tentatively.

Hearing Jiayun Lee's words, Lin Yun smacked his forehead.

He hadn't dealt with such issues before, and so he had forgotten.

Indeed, if he wanted security guards or bodyguards, he could just contact a reliable security company, it would save him the hassle.

Although it would be more expensive, having a company guarantee would ensure the staff were also reliable.

Back when he'd first arrived in Shen City and was barely getting by, he had almost gone to one of those companies.

Later, as he started to thrive in the electronic wholesale market in Qinglong District, he dismissed the idea.

"You don't have to worry about this anymore, I'll handle it myself," Lin Yun pondered, then said.

Originally, he was just trying to avoid the hassle by letting Jiayun Lee hire. But now that there was a more convenient way, he would just hire himself.

After all, he had been practicing martial arts since he was a kid and was not weak now. He would be better able to evaluate the others' abilities and character.

The strength of security was important, but character was more so.

Moreover, this time, he could not only hire security guards, but also bodyguards.

"Boss, I didn't mean anything else..." Upon hearing Lin Yun's words, Jiayun Lee quickly responded, sounding a little anxious.

She thought her previous words might have upset Lin Yun.

"Manager Lee, don't worry. I'm not angry. I just forgot about the security companies for a moment and didn't want you to be troubled by this. Now that I've remembered, I'll handle it myself…" Lin Yun said with a slight smile.

After speaking, he gave Jiayun Lee some more instructions and planned to leave with Xia Qingqing.

However, before they could leave, two men in police uniforms approached.

"Hello, are you Mr. Lin Yun?" a middle-aged man in a police uniform saluted Lin Yun and asked.

Despite the polite tone, there was a feeling of pressure.

"Yes, I am." Lin Yun nodded.

"We are from the Safe Road Police Station in Qinglong District. Someone reported that you have seriously injured them. We need you to come with us." Seeing Lin Yun confirming his identity, the other man in a police uniform, a young man, didn't show the same courtesy as the middle-aged man. He gave a cold smile and spoke.

"Just now, that man was insulting me first, so my boyfriend defended me…" Xia Qingqing grabbed Lin Yun's arm, looking anxious.

Both the middle-aged and the young man were amazed by Xia Qingqing's stunning beauty.

They then looked at Lin Yun with a mix of envy and jealousy. To think that such a beautiful girl was this young man's girlfriend...

Envious and jealous of the one who had a beautiful girl - such was the nature of many men.

"Officers, isn't there some misunderstanding? This man is the owner of our hotel…" Jiayun Lee said, sounding worried.

"The owner of this hotel?" The middle-aged policeman's face shifted slightly.

That's not what Zhang Tianyu had told them. Zhang Tianyu had said that this young man was just a country bumpkin with no money or power in Shen City.

If this young man was indeed the hotel owner, they would have to investigate his background thoroughly.

How could someone so young become a hotel owner without some major backing?

As for why Zhang Tianyu had said that to them, it was clearly because he didn't want them being cautious.

"Who are you? He's the owner of this hotel? Are you sure you're not lying? I seem to remember the hotel's owner was someone named Li..." The young policeman said, frowning at Jiayun Lee.

"I'm the manager of this hotel. He just bought this hotel recently," Jiayun Lee responded.

"Even if he is the owner of this hotel, he still needs to come with us for an investigation since a complaint has been lodged against him. But don't worry, if nothing is wrong, we will send Mr. Lin Yun back soon," the young man replied, nodding his head.

Despite being young, he wasn't reckless.

Securing a position in the Shen City police wasn't easy, and he didn't want to lose it over a trivial matter.

He knew that there were some people you could offend, and others that you couldn't.

However, he wasn't someone that could be easily intimidated.

At that moment, he was just making a formal statement.

Whether there would be an issue or not would be determined once they investigated if what the manager claimed was true, and whether this Lin Yun had any backing.

"I can go with you, but before I do, I'd like to make a call," Lin Yun said calmly.

"Mr. Lin, as you wish," the middle-aged man said, smiling.

They wouldn't stop him from making a call. In case he had some strong backing, this would help them avoid offending him. Shen City was a top city in Huaxia, housing elites from all over Huaxia and even the world. Many people had significant backgrounds; the police had to tread carefully concerning this.

"Which police station will I be taken to?" Lin Yun asked.

"The Safe Road Police Station in Qinglong District," the middle-aged man replied.

"Lawyer Zhong, it's Lin Yun. I'm involved in an assault case. I'm about to be taken to the Safe Road Police Station in Qinglong District. If you have time, could you please come to bail me out? If you don't have time, one of your colleagues would be fine too," Lin Yun said after making a call.

Lawyer Zhong was the lawyer he'd contacted during his last case. Her name was Zhong Ling, a recent graduate. Although she might be lacking in ability, she was a good person. She had done her best with his case last time, otherwise he might have been sentenced to jail.

Getting bail wasn't particularly difficult, so he believed she could manage.

If Zhong Ling couldn't handle the depth of the situation, he planned to have the law firm she was affiliated with take over.

"Lin Yun? Okay, I'll be right there!" Zhong Ling was delighted to receive Lin Yun's call and answered enthusiastically.

Lin Yun was the first and only case Zhong Ling took on after she started working. As a result, she had a lasting impression of him. Lin Yun's case should not have been judged so harshly, but due to her handling of it, the sentencing was severe. She had been feeling guilty about this.

Later, she calculated when Lin Yun would be released and kept calling him, hoping to invite him for a meal as an apology, but she never managed to reach him.

She assumed that Lin Yun had left Shen City. This had disappointed her, making her feel that she had lost her chance to apologize.

Now, receiving Lin Yun's call out of the blue had thrilled her.

Seeing Lin Yun make a call to a lawyer, the middle-aged and young policemen looked at each other but said nothing.

With him immediately calling a lawyer in response to an accusation, it was clear that Lin Yun was no ordinary person.

They needed to investigate this Lin Yun's background thoroughly once they returned.
