Chapter 469: Bounty
Lin Tian was overjoyed in his heart and asked, "Have you already gathered the evidence of Du Dahai’s crimes?"
Xu Ning’an nodded, "It’s almost ready. He’s been a big fish I’ve been watching for a long time, and after we reel him in this time, we can finally rid Kanyue City of this tumor."
Lin Tian smiled and asked, "Isn’t your contribution significant?"
"Well, almost all the credit this time is mine, it’s big enough for a promotion." Xu Ning’an thought about it and laughed again, her eyes curving into two crescent moons, which was quite beautiful.
Hearing that Xu Ning’an could be promoted made Lin Tian very happy. Although he hadn’t known Xu Ning’an for long, their relationship was very good.
"After we eliminate Du Dahai’s power, can you really do as you say?" Xu Ning’an looked at Lin Tian seriously.
"What?" Lin Tian looked at her in confusion.
Xu Ning’an was anxious; if Lin Tian wasn’t injured like this, she really wanted to take a bite.
"It’s that security plan you mentioned, to help us police guard this city. If you don’t do this, even if we catch Du Dahai, there will still be Zhang Dahai, Zhao Dahai. Compared to them, I think you are more trustworthy."
Lin Tian laughed, "Don’t worry, I will keep my word."
Xu Ning’an’s eyes again curved into crescent moons.
Lin Tian thought for a while and said, "Later, I’ll have Wu Yong give you something that will make it impossible for Du Dahai to escape."
Xu Ning’an looked at him in confusion, "What is it?"
"A video of Du Dahai’s dealings with people from Sakula Country, the video is very clear, there’s a gun." Lin Tian smiled.
Actually, the evidence in Xu Ning’an’s hands was already enough to convict Du Dahai. Adding this video would be different, not only condemning Du Dahai to death, but also deterring the Wang Family, making Bai Shishi’s plan proceed more smoothly.
After hearing this, Xu Ning’an just glanced at Lin Tian and said with annoyance, "Why didn’t you bring it out earlier? Collecting his evidence recently exhausted me."
Lin Tian smiled and did not answer.
With a light snort, Xu Ning’an changed the subject, "How come you’re injured so badly and there’s no one to take care of you?"
Lin Tian smiled wryly, "There is, it’s just that they’re all busy now and can’t take care of me at the moment. It’s okay, I’m fine on my own."
"You’re really pitiful, then. Alright, I won’t keep you company any longer, I have to go interrogate those two killers."
After Xu Ning’an finished speaking, she turned and walked out. She had been there for quite a while, after all, she was there on official duty and couldn’t stay with Lin Tian for too long.
To her surprise, Xu Ning’an returned after just ten minutes.
"What happened? Did you finish the interrogation so quickly?" Lin Tian asked in surprise.
Xu Ning’an sat back in the chair, looked at Lin Tian, and said strangely, "This time, you helped me achieve another great merit."
Lin Tian was stunned, "What great merit?"
"Do you know who those two women are?"
Lin Tian shook his head.
"Leng Yu and Leng Xue, both international Class A felons! The International Police Organization has been pursuing them for two years, and the trail went cold a year ago. Didn’t think they were in Kanyue City." Xu Ning’an looked at Lin Tian with lingering fear, "Luckily, you were alert last night, otherwise you would’ve fallen into their trap."
"What do you mean? Explain it clearly," Lin Tian urged.
"These two women, we don’t know which organization trained them. We just know they are very skilled and very discreet. They have killed many high-ranking individuals, including a foreign family patriarch. They’re not just internationally wanted but also targets for many assassins."
"Telling you this, you might not have a clear concept. Let me tell you, these two women have bounties from many powerful groups because they have killed so many of their leaders. For capturing them, regardless of whether alive or dead, or whether they’re handed over to those powers, the total bounty is 85 million! Among them, 30 million are in gold coins, totaling over a billion Celestial Dragon Continent currency!"
Lin Tian felt a wave of warmth in his heart. He didn’t expect to earn so much money inexplicably. He still felt some lingering fear, recalling the cautious demeanor of the two sisters last night and their flawless knife techniques. If it had been someone else, they would surely be dead!
Breathing a sigh of relief, Lin Tian blinked and asked, "Do you think those powers won’t renege on giving me the money?"
Xu Ning’an glared at him, "Those bounty notices are issued by big families and powerful groups. How could they renege? Do you think everyone is a thug like you?"
After hearing this, Lin Tian started giggling foolishly, thinking about how to spend all this money.
"Enough, stop giggling. Do you think receiving all this money will be that easy?"
"What do you mean?"
"You know how many people will have their eyes on you once you receive that money, don’t you?" Xu Ning’an looked at him as if she was enjoying a good show.
Lin Tian frowned. Xu Ning’an was right; once he claimed the money, everyone would have their eyes on him. Not only might someone harbor malice over such a large amount, but he would also provoke the powers behind the two sisters.
Although Lin Tian wasn’t afraid, attracting so many flies over a billion would be quite annoying.
Suddenly, Xu Ning’an smiled charmingly, "I have a way to let you get the money without trouble."
"Quick, tell me, what’s the solution?"
"You can claim all the money in the name of the Celestial Dragon Continent police. Of course, I get a share." Xu Ning’an grinned like a little fox.
Lin Tian looked at her curiously, "Isn’t your father the emperor of Mingzhu? You’re short on cash?"
"Don’t mention him to me! I don’t use his filthy money! All the money I spend now is earned by myself." Xu Ning’an argued reasonably, then looked at Lin Tian pitifully, "I’m really poor now."
Lin Tian laughed at her antics, "No problem, you take half; I take half."
Xu Ning’an waved her hand with a giggle, "No need for that much, just give me a secondary card. I’ll buy whatever I want, consider it robbing the rich to help the poor."
Lin Tian rolled his eyes playfully, "A secondary card? Why do I feel like I’m keeping you?"
Xu Ning’an tilted her head and thought for two seconds, finally nodded and smiled, "Being kept by someone as young, wealthy, handsome, and silly as you, I don’t mind."
After laughing, Xu Ning’an looked at Lin Tian as if he were a monster, puzzledly saying, "How did you manage to completely defeat two such formidable figures?"
Lin Tian raised the hand that was injured, "My hand is injured like this, does that count as a complete victory?"
"Fighting two with one while partially disabled doesn’t count as a complete victory? You should know those two sisters are not only skilled in combat but also use poison, you’re lucky you didn’t get killed, you should really go burn incense at a temple."
The two chatted for a while, and Xu Ning’an’s two other colleagues finished taking the sisters’ statements and came to Lin Tian’s room.
They accompanied Xu Ning’an to take a statement from Lin Tian and then left.
