Chapter 507: Arrest Warrant!

~13 min read 2,427 words

In the afternoon, Lin Yuan was suddenly summoned to the Chairman's Office.

"Please have a seat." Su Monong gestured for Lin Yuan to sit, "There's a new risk control task; I need you to look into it."

Su Monong pushed a cooperation intent letter toward Lin Yuan, "This company called Clearwind Group wants to cooperate on our traditional Chinese medicine sales project; their quote is very advantageous, but I always feel something is off. As the Risk Control Director, go and liaise with them yourself, get to the bottom of their background, and assess the cooperation risk."

Lin Yuan took the intent letter and quickly skimmed the key clauses.

The business qualification copies and cooperation plan on the document appeared very orderly.

But the crucial fund flow proof…… was not mentioned at all in past large‑scale cooperation cases.

"Director Su's concern is well‑founded; such an unusually low price often hides risk." He lifted his eyes and said, "I will personally liaise, get a clear picture of their financial strength, supply channels, and industry reputation, and give you a complete risk assessment report within three days."

"Exactly what I had in mind." Su Monong nodded, "They left a contact number, saying they hope to meet as soon as possible. Contact them directly and be sure to verify the details thoroughly."

Lin Yuan nodded, took the document, and left the office.

……

Back in his own office, Lin Yuan immediately dialed the number on the intent letter.

The liaison from Clearwind Group sounded enthusiastic and familiar, blurting out "Director Lin" as soon as he spoke.

Obviously, they had done their homework in advance.

"We know Director Lin, you're in charge of risk control and your time is precious. Tonight at six, in the Peony private room at the Hilton Hotel, we'll eat and chat; I'll have all the cooperation details, company qualification documents, and past supply proofs ready for you." The Clearwind Group representative said respectfully on the phone.

The other side's "thoroughness"…… made Lin Yuan's professional sensitivity grow even stronger.

But in order to get to the bottom of things, he readily agreed: "No problem, I'll be there at six sharp."

After hanging up, Lin Yuan casually pulled up Clearwind Group's business registration info; the content that popped up on the screen confirmed his suspicions.

The company had been registered for just two months, and its registered capital was subscribed but not yet paid in.

The legal representative…… was a stranger's name that turned up no records, a typical feature of a shell company.

"Heh, interesting, a shell company?" Lin Yuan narrowed his eyes.

This entire afternoon, Lin Yuan was investigating the other party's data.

Only by evening did Lin Yuan finally get up, preparing to go to the Hilton Hotel.

Although he was on guard, Lin Yuan still drove to the Hilton Hotel at the appointed time……

……

At 5:50 p. m., he steadily parked his Tesla in the Hilton Hotel's underground parking garage.

After getting out of the car, Lin Yuan deliberately glanced around, noticing nothing abnormal.

He then turned…… and walked toward the elevator.

But Lin Yuan failed to notice.

In the shadows behind a column in the parking garage, two sneaky men were watching his back……

One of them clutched a sealed white paper packet in his hand.

These two men were Qian Renhao's trusted aides.

……

At that moment, in the Qian Shi Group office, Qian Renhao was coldly smirking at the surveillance footage.

"Wait until he enters the private room, then move." Qian Renhao said sternly into the walkie‑talkie, "Use the special tool to pry open the passenger‑side door, slip the 'goods' into the storage compartment, act quickly and leave no fingerprints. Afterward, immediately call in an anonymous tip, claiming there are drug dealers in the Hilton Hotel garage and give Lin Yuan's license plate number."

In the garage, the two men nodded.

They put the walkie‑talkies into their pockets.

The two saw Lin Yuan's figure disappear at the elevator entrance……%

The two could then act.

The two crouched low…… and quickly walked up to the white Tesla sedan.

One of them produced a special lock‑picking tool and opened the passenger‑side door in a few seconds.

The other swiftly stuffed the white paper packet into the storage compartment.

Everything was done seamlessly.

The two exchanged a glance and nodded at each other.

They relocked the door and pretended nothing had happened.

Then they hurried off to a corner of the garage.

Afterward, one of the anonymous men took out his phone and dialed the City Public Security Bureau Command Center.

"Hello, is this the City Public Security Bureau? I want to report a crime! In the Hilton Hotel underground parking garage, a man driving a white Tesla is dealing drugs; his license plate is…… Zhe A‑D00005……"

……

Ten minutes later, the piercing wail of police sirens swept in.

Inside the Hilton Hotel underground parking garage, three police cars filed in.

Soon, the white Tesla was surrounded by police cars.

The car door opened, and Mu Lingxue, wearing a police uniform, stepped out first; beside her followed her father, Mu Tiecheng.

And a contingent of members from the anti‑drug squad.

At that moment, the two "informants" jumped out, pointing at the white Tesla and saying, "Officer, it's this car! He's suspected of drug trafficking! We saw him get out of the car, and there were drugs hidden inside!"

"Oh?" Mu Lingxue's eyes darkened as she stared at the white Tesla.

A few minutes later, Lin Yuan hurriedly took the elevator downstairs.

Lin Yuan also suddenly received a police call saying his vehicle was under investigation.

So Lin Yuan rushed downstairs.

Lin Yuan arrived in front of the Tesla sedan.

"Lin Yuan?" Upon seeing Lin Yuan appear, Mu Lingxue and her father Mu Tiecheng were both taken aback.

The other officers around were also stunned?

"What's going on? Officer Mu, Uncle Mu? Why have you brought so many officers?" Lin Yuan asked in surprise.

"We received a report from these two people claiming there are drugs in your car; we've been ordered to investigate." Mu Lingxue said solemnly.

Lin Yuan was taken aback, his gaze sweeping over the two complainants.

"You two, I don't even know you, right? Why are you framing me for having drugs in my car?" Lin Yuan countered.

At this moment, the two complainants pointed at the Tesla and spoke coldly.

"Team Mu! The drugs are right in the passenger seat's storage compartment! We saw him hide the drugs there ourselves—a full kilogram! This amount is enough to put him away for good!"

The surrounding officers exchanged glances.

Several officers immediately stepped forward, surrounding Lin Yuan in the middle.

Mu Lingxue's eyes were deep and mysterious as she walked to the passenger seat and opened the door.

With a soft "click," the storage compartment lid was slowly opened.

Mu Lingxue and her father Mu Tiecheng both had their expressions turn grave.

Inside the Tesla's storage compartment lay a black backpack, as expected.

Mu Lingxue unzipped it, revealing white powder divided into several transparent plastic bags, an astonishing amount.

Mu Lingxue pinched a bit of powder with her jade-like finger, brought it to her nose, and gave it a light sniff.

Sure enough, it was drugs—and methamphetamine powder!

"It's drugs." Mu Lingxue nodded to her father.

Her father Mu Tiecheng's face also turned grim.

"Officers, look! The evidence is solid." One of the complainants slapped his thigh and shouted, "Team Mu, hurry up and cuff him! This is a big case!"

Mu Lingxue's gaze swept over the drugs, then she suddenly turned, her voice turning icy: "Cuff him."

The officers responded in unison…

But the officers didn't go toward Lin Yuan; instead, they quickly moved to flank the two complainants.

In the blink of an eye, the two complacent complainants were pressed to the ground by the officers!

"Click!" Two pairs of handcuffs were slammed shut on the complainants' wrists!

The two security guards were completely bewildered??

The two exclaimed in shock, "What? Police comrades? What are you doing? Why are you arresting us?! You've got the wrong person! We're the complainants! He—this Lin Yuan—is the drug dealer! This Tesla sedan is his!"

"He's a drug dealer?" Mu Lingxue snorted coldly, stepping aside to let Lin Yuan behind her.

Mu Lingxue sneered, "Do you know who he is? He's a specially appointed consultant of the Action Group of the Municipal Bureau Criminal Investigation Detachment, and he's a member of our police force. You're saying he deals drugs? Isn't that ridiculous?"

"What?" The two complainants' faces turned deathly pale, as if they'd heard an Arabian tale.

This!

This is completely different from the news Young Master Qian gave them!

Young Master Qian didn't say that Lin Yuan is merely a director of the Su Group, did he?

How could he have a police background?!

The two complainants' faces were utterly embarrassed.

The two still tried to explain and make excuses.

Lin Yuan, however, suddenly… pulled out a pinhole camera from the corner of the passenger seat.

Swish~!

The moment they saw the pinhole camera, the two complainants' faces turned deathly pale and ugly!

This?!

This bastard Lin Yuan actually installed a pinhole camera?!

This means that the footage of them just now putting the drugs inside was completely, completely filmed secretly?!

Lin Yuan opened the camera feed and showed it to Mu Lingxue and the others.

Indeed!

Just now, the two complainants secretly pried open the car door and stuffed the drugs into the rear storage compartment… this scene was clearly captured by the pinhole camera!

Every move was captured clearly by the pinhole camera.

This pinhole camera was deliberately installed by Lin Yuan on the exterior rearview mirror before he set out.

The purpose was to gather evidence.

Tonight's dinner, Lin Yuan had a feeling something was off.

So he had prepared in advance!

At this moment, the people of the Qingfeng Group have indeed been caught red-handed! They've revealed their true colors.

"Your so-called exposure is nothing but walking into a trap." Lin Yuan walked up to the two, his eyes icy, "From the moment you started sneaking around in the garage, you've already been on the police's radar."

The two complainants' faces turned as white as paper, their lips trembling, unable to speak.

They never dreamed that the Lin Yuan they regarded as "prey" was actually a police officer?

The scheme they painstakingly set up ended up drilling straight into Lin Yuan's trap.

This is clearly a case of entrapment!

One of them, seeing the situation turn bad, suddenly broke free of the officers' control and bolted toward the fire escape.

Lin Yuan's eyes narrowed, and he swiftly flicked his right hand!

A silver needle struck precisely at the back of his knee.

His leg gave way, and with a "thud" he fell to the ground, grimacing in pain.

"Don't waste your effort." Mu Lingxue stepped forward, kicked the suspect on the ground, and said, "Come clean—where did this kilogram of drugs come from? Who ordered you to frame Lin Yuan? Tell the truth, and you might still get leniency."

Two robbers struggled, refusing to confess.

Mu Lingxue sneered, "Hah, refusing to confess? Take them all away! Bring them back to the police station for a thorough interrogation!"

At night, the two suspects were directly taken to the interrogation room of the Municipal Criminal Investigation Detachment.

At first, the two still put up a tough front and denied everything.

Until Lin Yuan made his move, Lin Yuan interrogated them with a silver needle.

They were forced into collapse, wailing miserably.

The two instantly lost their composure.

Faced with the psychological pressure from the silver needle and the ironclad evidence, they quickly confessed fully.

"It's Qian Renhao! The young master of the Qian Shi Group had us do it!"

One of them wiped cold sweat and said, "This kilogram of drugs was also given by him; he said as long as we hide the stuff in Director Lin's car, report him for drug trafficking, and after it succeeds, we'll each get 100,000 yuan."

The other quickly added, "Every step was arranged by him; even the meeting information at the Hilton Hotel was sent by him under the name of the Qingfeng Group, just to lure Director Lin out."

Both of them, they all confessed...

All the evidence pointed entirely to Qian Renhao.

After the interrogation ended.

Lin Yuan and Mu Lingxue walked out of the interrogation room.

At that moment, Mu Lingxue was holding the evidence bag, heading toward the archive room.

Suddenly, one of the suspects' phones suddenly vibrated inside the evidence bag.

Lin Yuan and Mu Lingxue were startled?

Mu Lingxue hurriedly opened the evidence bag.

Lin Yuan pulled out his phone and saw the caller ID: Qian Renhao!

Was it Qian Renhao calling?

Lin Yuan picked up the phone, pressed the answer button, and deliberately turned on speakerphone.

"How's it going? Was that brat Lin Yuan caught? Mission accomplished?" came Qian Renhao's arrogant and urgent voice from the other end.

Lin Yuan let out a cold laugh, deliberately lowering his voice but keeping it clearly recognizable: "Sorry, Young Master Qian, to disappoint you. I wasn't caught; instead, your two lackeys are now in the police station drinking hot tea."

"You... are Lin Yuan?!" Qian Renhao's voice on the phone instantly shifted, filled with incredulous panic.

"It's me." Lin Yuan said with a cold laugh.

From the other end came hurried breathing, followed immediately by a sharp "crack!"

Qian Renhao, frightened, hung up directly.

At that moment, the captain of the Criminal Investigation Detachment, Huo Gang, walked over, holding an interrogation record.

Huo Gang's face was full of solemnity as he stepped forward and said, "Good news, the evidence chain is now complete enough; Qian Renhao's crimes have been established. There's enough to apply for an arrest warrant. The team has decided we can apply to arrest Qian Renhao."

Huo Gang said, placing the arrest warrant application documents in front of Lin Yuan and Mu Lingxue.

"Really?" Upon hearing this, Lin Yuan felt delighted.

"That scoundrel Qian Renhao, who has done countless evil deeds, now finally has a chance—can we arrest him?!"

Huo Gang nodded, solemnly saying, "That brat Qian Renhao has committed countless evils; this time we absolutely cannot let him escape. Lin Yuan, you know his style of operation; Lingxue, you have rich experience leading a team. Tomorrow morning, the two of you will join forces and go to the Qian Shi Group headquarters to arrest him."
