Chapter 425: Can you release him?
Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations
At a certain villa in Beijing.
Yue Qiu Ju Shi carefully placed an artwork on the table. He said happily, “Don’t touch it. This artwork is my everything. If not for you, I wouldn’t have shown it to anyone.”
Tao Shi Gang smiled. “Elder Yue is treating this artwork like an inherited treasure. If he had hidden it properly, perhaps you guys would never find out about this.”
The masters of the Chinese Arts Association saw that he had been smiling ever since he had come back from Shanghai. They thought that he was so happy because of the exhibition. However, they later found out that it was because he had obtained an exquisite artwork.
They didn’t believe it when they heard it. After all, they were all artists and an exquisite piece of art would have countless people fighting for it. Furthermore, it had to be extraordinary for it to be called an exquisite artwork. Therefore, they had to take a look at it if not they wouldn’t be convinced of it.
Then, Yue Qiu Ju Shi opened it up and everyone surrounded him.
When they looked at it, all the artists from around the world stared intently. They were completely mesmerized by it.
One of the artists that specialized in flora and fauna was completely stunned by it.
“This drawing…”
Yue Qiu Ju Shi answered happily, “How is it? I bet there isn’t another flora and fauna artwork that could match up to this.”
Although it was a bold claim, everyone nodded their heads when they heard it.
“This is an artwork with deep meaning. It speaks to me on a spiritual level. We’ve studied art for our whole lives because we wanted to reach this level. I never expected to be able to see a drawing like this in my life.”
“A professional artist’s work can’t even match up to this.”
“Who drew this? It’s signed by ‘Master Lin’. Who is that?”
Yue Qiu Ju Shi saw that his good friends were attracted by this artwork. He raised his head and asked, “How is this artwork?”
“It’s beautiful, I think it could be one of the best in the world.”
“Elder Yue, stop it. Just tell us which grandmaster drew this.”
“Elder Yue, I believe we’re extremely close. Just name a price and sell it to me.”
Yue Qiu Ju Shi covered the artwork with both of his hands. “That’s not possible. This artwork is priceless. My future depends on this artwork. We all know the wonders of the ancient artworks but they’ve never reached the peak. However, this artwork’s value is higher than any other artwork. If we talk about quality, I think this ‘Hundred birds looking up to the Phoenix’ is better than any other artwork too.”
“This artwork has everything. It’s one of the best! If not, the best!”
Yue Qiu Ju Shi couldn’t let go of this artwork. He looked at it every day and wanted to sleep on it to experience it fully.
“Elder Yue, was it drawn by someone in the association?” One of the elderly men asked. He was extremely impressed by this artwork. It was just like what Elder Yue said, this artwork was priceless. The quality was superior too.
None of them seemed to have heard of Master Lin before.
Yue Qiu Ju Shi shook his head. “Nope, but if you see who he is, you’d be shocked.”
Tao Shi Gang was already used to what Elder Yue was doing. He was just scrolling through his phone and reading the news. Suddenly, he gasped.
“Elder Yue, come over, quick!” Tao Shi Gang gasped. “Master Lin is in Beijing but he’s in the detainment center for hitting a Korean celebrity.”
“What?” Yue Qiu Ju Shi was stunned. Then, he quickly took the phone and read the news. He couldn’t believe it. He quickly kept the artwork and kept it in the safe carefully. “Elder Tao, let’s go to the detainment center. We have to save Master Lin.”
…
At the detainment center.
Lin Fan’s phone was going crazy.
The person that was responsible for answering the phone calls sipped on a cup of tea to relieve himself. “These fans are too scary. Their calls have been coming one after another. They all requested for the man to be sentenced to life imprisonment.”
Another elderly worker said, “These children are hopeless. Sigh, it’s a pity for our nation.”
The worker replied, “In the past, it was a cultural shock. Now, it’s a celebrity invasion. These affect the children a lot. Some of the famous celebrities who aren’t righteous are considered to be time bombs. However, the investors these days aren’t bothered by this. They only want to earn profits.”
“I have read about this Jin Xuan Ming before. He’s an arrogant man. After becoming famous in China, he treats our nation’s celebrities unfairly. It could be seen from variety shows. I wonder why these kids like him so much.”
“It’s simple. He looks handsome, that’s all.”
…
Lin Fan and Wang Ming Yang sat there and drank tea. The operations officer didn’t make things difficult for Lin Fan. He just couldn’t release him yet because the matter wasn’t exactly a normal one. The victim was a Korean celebrity who was famous in China.
If they let them off like that, it would definitely cause even more trouble.
“That’s weird. Why hasn’t Yun Gang bailed us out?” Wang Ming Yang was a little doubtful.
“Why are you so anxious? Just wait for him,” Lin Fan was in no hurry at all. It was as if he wasn’t bothered by this matter.
Then, outside the detainment center.
Three cars were parked outside.
The three groups of people stepped out of their cars and they didn’t know who each other was.
The police officer outside blocked them. “Who are you?”
One of them said, “I am from the Martial Arts Association, the secretary of President Niu. I am here to look for your chief.”
The police officer was a little stunned when he heard that this person was from the Martial Arts Association. It sounded like a violent place to a normal person. However, he knew that these organizations represented the nation and the people inside held high statuses.
“What about you?” The police officer looked in another direction.
“We’re from the Chinese Medical Association, we’re here to look for your chief.”
“We’re from the Chinese Arts Association, we’re also here for your chief.”
clatter
The police officer was stunned. What was going on? Why did people from three different associations suddenly appear at the detainment center? It was something that had never happened before.
The chief of the detainment center was also extremely frustrated. Everyone online was focusing on them.
If something were to happen, everyone would know about it.
“Chief, people from the Martial Arts Association, Chinese Medicine Association and Chinese Arts Association are here to look for you,” a low-ranking police officer said after entering. He was also extremely curious as to what was happening.
These three associations were considered to be the better ones of the country. Some of the leaders in those organizations were reputable and influential figures. They had extensive and wide networks. All of them had grouped up at the detainment center together, which puzzled him.
Chief Ding was a little curious. “Please come in.”
The three different groups of people opened the door and entered.
The person from the Martial Arts Association said, “Chief Ding, I represent the highest authority of the association to bail the Vice-President of Shanghai’s Martial Arts Association, Lin Fan.”
The Chinese Medical Association member said, “We are also here to bail Master Lin.”
The Chinese Arts Association representative, Tao Shi Gang was stunned. Then, he looked at the two of them and nodded. “The Chinese Arts Association is also here to bail Master Lin.”
Then, the three groups of people said, “Can you release him? Our association will be responsible for anything that happens.”
Chief Ding didn’t say anything. He just looked at them in shock.
What the hell is happening?
