Chapter 662

~16 min read 3,018 words

The speed at which things are developing is too fast; many matters may need to be redeployed.

After Mr. Hou left, Rich called Joshua and briefly explained the situation here.

When he heard that Mr. Hou had already run away and that the situation was not very optimistic, he couldn't help but knit his brows.

At this very moment, he had an indescribable "telepathy"; he felt that they would not get the result they wanted this time!

This kind of telepathy did not appear often, but whenever it did, it was accurate most of the time.

As a "Saint", he shouldn't have been superstitious about this, but having been exposed to so many mystical things, he was somewhat superstitious himself.

Superstition aside, the things that needed to be done still had to be done; what if it really was just superstition?

"Wait a moment, I'll make a call to Mr. Charles and discuss the current situation."

After hanging up, he called Mr. Charles directly. Fortunately, the other party was right by the phone, and the two were soon connected. After briefly understanding the situation, Joshua gave Rich's number to Mr. Charles.

Subsequently, Mr. Charles called Rich.

"What is your plan with Hou?"

"I mean, how do you intend to take Lansi out?"

Rich did not hide anything and told him honestly.

"Lansi has a younger sister. Although it is highly probable that this sister has no blood relation to him, I have heard that he still pays a lot of attention to her."

"Mr. Hou and I thought of using this sister to lure Lansi to the school."

"The school will not allow Lansi to bring so many gangsters inside; at that time, he will have at most two or three people by his side."

"This is the best time for us to act. We will ambush the school first. As long as he comes and enters the school, he is a dead man!"

Originally, Mr. Charles had his own ideas; he thought he could use the commotion created by the refugee Hou Pu to lure Lansi over.

But thinking about it now, the strategy discussed by Rich and Hou actually had high executability. After thinking for a while, he gave his support first: "This is an excellent plan, and I also believe it has a high execution rate."

"However!", a turn that naturally should have appeared, he slightly emphasized his tone, "We cannot think of him as that simple; that is Lansi!"

"Although I don't want to admit it, I have to admit that as an 'opponent', Lansi is undoubtedly qualified!"

"If you don't have the opportunity to act, don't force it. We will have other opportunities, and we still have an important card in our hand that we haven't played."

He was talking about Yase.

Taking down Lansi might not necessarily take down Mayor Williams, but taking down Mayor Williams would allow them to turn back and deal with Lansi. Since the masks were off, the priority of attacking Lansi was lower than the priority of confronting Mayor Williams directly.

It is like... two friends having a dispute; at first, they just curse at each other, and then they start to engage in minor physical altercations.

You hit my arm, I kick your leg; everything is still under control.

At this time, if you can make the other party lose their ability to attack—that is, pinning Lansi down—then it is obviously more advantageous.

But both sides have been completely provoked by the other and have started to strike to kill without regard. Attacking the other's vital points, such as the head, is obviously more valuable than continuing to attack the other's shoulders or arms.

Rich agreed and went to do it immediately.

No matter how the situation outside changes, it does not affect anything inside the school.

Luo Lin Huai Te is a boarding student; this is a private school, one of the best private schools in New Jincheng.

Luo Lin's age is actually not that young, but she hadn't really gone to school; she was imprisoned at home right after graduating from elementary school.

No one knows what exactly happened in that terrible place, but undoubtedly, she must have been covered in scars.

She was sent back to school by Lansi, a middle school, and this is already the second year; after winter passes, she will be able to enter the ninth grade.

After next year's summer vacation ends, she will be a high school student.

She is older than the other classmates in her class, but her physique does not appear as mature or large as her age would suggest; instead, she is somewhat frail.

Long-term abuse combined with the fear in her heart has stunted her development.

However, her classmates did not bully her because of this, because this is a private campus, and the code of conduct for all students in the school comes from the guidance and requirements of their parents behind them.

Children in private schools mature earlier than children in public schools—in terms of mentality, they have understood since childhood that this world is not fair and that they and their families are not the center of the world.

Their parents would not let them suck up to Luo Lin, but they would require them not to tease or harm Luo Lin.

Except for a few people, not many can withstand the retaliation of the Lansi family.

Luo Lin is very safe and quiet in school, just appearing a bit lonely, with no friends.

The school teachers also seem to be somewhat repelled by her because of the identity of her nominal brother.

However, this is already life in heaven; no abuse, no fear, studying every day, having delicious food and beautiful clothes—there is nothing happier than this.

In the morning, she went to the restroom, and after returning, she prepared for the next class. It was at this moment that a female classmate suddenly shouted, "My jewelry is missing."

If this kind of thing happened in a public school, "jewelry" might just be a small item worth a few cents.

But on a private campus, it really could be a high-priced piece of jewelry.

Soon the teachers arrived in the classroom, along with some security guards.

After those teachers briefly inquired about some things, a middle-aged woman who should be the vice principal stood on the podium: "This is the first time such a thing has happened since our school was founded!"

"I hope that this student's accessory just fell in some place she didn't notice, for example, on the playground or in a corner of some corridor, but it should not appear in someone's pocket or schoolbag."

"I don't want it to become something that makes us, and you all, feel ashamed, but we have to consider it."

"We need to be responsible for every student, and also responsible for society and morality, so I implore all students to agree to let us check your schoolbags and pockets."

Soon someone said "I agree," and everyone was saying the same; Luo Lin hadn't taken anything from anyone, and she also raised her hand: "I agree!"

It's just that she didn't notice that the girl who lost the item saw her raise her hand, joined in, and let out a sigh of relief.

Although she didn't know why her father wanted her to do this, she had understood a principle since childhood.

Everything she possesses depends on her father.

Her father is doing better and better, so the family is becoming more and more respectable; she can wear beautiful clothes, wear those expensive accessories, and do whatever she wants.

If her father encounters trouble, then the family's conditions will continuously decline, and she will become like those ordinary girls she looks down upon, falling into the dust.

As long as her father is still there, everything is safe!

So since her father said so, she did so!

Seeing that no one objected, the vice principal immediately signaled the teachers and guards to start checking the students' schoolbags, desks, and pockets.

As more and more people were checked, everyone gradually let out a sigh of relief, and some even thought that the girl must have accidentally lost it herself.

Until—

"Ms. Luo Lin, what is this?"

A female teacher stood in front of Luo Lin and took an exquisite gemstone accessory out of her schoolbag.

The girl in the distance screamed and said loudly, "That is mine, it's mine!"

Everyone's eyes were focused on Luo Lin's face—shock, surprise, doubt, dissatisfaction, disgust, hatred...

In this instant, she felt targeted by the entire world!

"I... don't know why it is here!", she explained, but obviously, no one believed her.

The vice principal's high-and-mighty eyes showed a look of contempt; a gangster boss's sister, a lowly brat—isn't committing a crime like stealing something just right for her?

The vice principal did not listen to her explanation: "Take your schoolbag and come to my office; we need to have a serious talk about this." Luo Lin emphasized repeatedly that she didn't take it, but obviously, no one cared.

The whispered discussions by her ears made her unable to breathe; she could already hear the blatant "thief" labels being thrown at her. Their gazes stung her, and she grabbed her schoolbag and chased after them quickly.

A few minutes later, in the office, in front of her, the vice principal dialed the number Lansi had left behind.

"... The situation is roughly like this; I think you should come over."

Lansi scratched his head; he had almost forgotten about this "sister", mainly because the two had almost never had much contact.

After a brief thought, he agreed: "I will come over when I have time."

"You had better come over now, Mr. Lansi," the vice principal emphasized again.

Lansi considered it: "Alright, I'll be there soon."

He put down the phone and shook his head. Aierwen stood up, but Lansi looked at Hailamu: "Take the men and weapons; we're going out."

"Do we need to kill someone?", Hailamu, who hadn't been on the front lines for a long time, started to get itchy hands.

Killing one's own kind is addictive—that feeling of holding other people's fates, watching them beg for mercy under his gun, watching them crawl on the ground abandoning all dignity, just to survive.

!

That feeling, that feeling of controlling everything, is somewhat addictive!

Hailamu wasn't that perverted yet, but he liked the feeling of the moment he pulled the trigger; at that moment, he was God!

Lansi shook his head: "I'm not sure, but being careful is always good."

"Luo Lin... that is, my nominal sister, had an incident at school. There were no incidents before, but it just had to happen suddenly now; one must always be a bit careful."

"If this is a trap, then we will break it!"

"If it isn't, it doesn't affect us either."

Soon a motorcade of five cars left from behind the company. There were at least five people in each car, and the team of more than twenty people were all good hands; they were confident in facing any challenge and defeating their opponents.

The private school Luo Lin attends is in the Creek Valley District. The scenery and environment in the Creek Valley District are quite good, and the development time was relatively late, so the land was cheaper at the time.

Some private schools are all over there.

When the motorcade arrived at the school, they couldn't immediately enter the parking lot because a security guard stopped them.

"Sorry, sir, you are not allowed to bring so many people in."

"School regulations: no matter who you are, at most three people can enter!"

The security guard looked at them very seriously, reading out the school's management regulations.

Lansi sat in the car, looking at him through the half-open window: "Do you know who I am?"

The security guard shook his head: "I don't know who you are, sir, but rules are rules!"

"Even if you were the President, you would have to follow the school's rules!"

Neither humble nor pushy; it seemed he had experienced many such things, and in the end, the parents always compromised.

After all, the willingness to let children come here to school isn't really because they value its teaching quality; there are many factors unrelated to learning that are influencing people.

Based on the influence of these people themselves, the school's management has also become tougher.

If it were an ordinary person, they might have really softened; for example, some relatively small character, he definitely wouldn't dare to be tough, because there are children of big shots inside.

As long as the school board and those big shots twist their mouths, they would get into big trouble.

But for Lansi, he is the biggest one here—

Except for James and Yase, no one has children, so the only family in this city with a higher status than him cannot have any influence on him.

Lansi smiled and said: "You can make a call to your principal or whoever, and tell him he has two choices now."

"Either let my motorcade in, and I will listen to what they intend to tell me."

"Or I will take my people and leave now, but they will have to pay the consequences themselves."

Seeing that the security guard seemed to want to emphasize his position, Lansi didn't give him a chance: "You are just a small character; don't get yourself hurt for things that have nothing to do with you!"

The security guard looked at Lansi with some hesitation, but finally chose to make the call.

He described the situation of the motorcade while talking in the security booth, as well as Lansi's appearance. Soon he walked over with an embarrassed face: "Sir, you can go in."

The school gate was slowly pushed open. Lansi glanced at him sideways and rolled up the car window.

At this time, several people in the administration building in the distance frowned: "They didn't stop Lansi's people; are we still going to act later?"

Da Wei was shaking his legs with some irritability; five cars, at least twenty people, and they only had seven people on their side. He didn't have much confidence in dealing with so many people!

More importantly, if they couldn't take Lansi out with one shot, the Lansi family's reinforcements would arrive here very quickly.

Although he indicated that he wanted to dedicate the rest of his life to God when he joined the Saint Bell Party, this didn't mean he wanted to serve God right now!

Watching the motorcade get closer and closer, Da Wei also became more and more nervous. Finally, he let out a heavy breath: "Forget it."

The others also let out a sigh of relief; if they really acted, this damn thing would be no different from going to their deaths.

Although they didn't need to die, everyone had some embarrassment on their faces; they didn't seem to be as unafraid of sacrifice as they had imagined.

Da Wei was also embarrassed. As the captain, he explained: "We might not succeed with so many of them, and it would also make Lansi alert, making it even harder to succeed next time."

It was as if his abandonment of the assassination wasn't because he was timid, but because he was considering whether the organization's plan could succeed.

His subordinates also echoed him repeatedly.

The action and process this time would become a secret they would never want to mention for the rest of their lives.

Lansi arrived at the vice principal's office unimpeded all the way. As soon as he entered, he saw Luo Lin standing by the wall.

Luo Lin's eyes lit up when she saw him, and then she became somewhat ashamed.

The vice principal stood up and took the initiative to walk around the table to shake hands with Lansi, but Lansi did not shake her hand and instead sat directly on the sofa next to them.

He crossed his legs and looked at the vice principal: "I'm here; what do you have to tell me?"

A flash of anger crossed the vice principal's eyes. It wasn't that she didn't know Lansi, but that she had been in contact with too many wealthy and powerful families.

Even those big tycoons in the Bay Area, or people from political families, were polite and courteous when they saw her.

Previously, two children from the Wei De family also studied here, and the second son of Councilor Wei De was also very polite and courteous every time he came here.

She didn't quite understand that people's politeness and courtesy toward her didn't actually stem from her own power.

She got this wrong.

Now, there was no smile on her face, and she returned to her chair and sat down: "Luo Lin stole a classmate's item in class. This is the first time since our school was founded, and the nature of it is very malicious!"

"I hope you can choose another school for Luo Lin. Such a student... I'm sorry, we cannot continue to let her study here!"

She said it decisively. Hearing her say this, Luo Lin pursed her lips with a straight face, and her eyes turned red.

Lansi turned around and glanced at Luo Lin, beckoning to her. The girl walked to Lansi's side, separated by a distance of about half a meter.

"Did you steal your classmate's item?", he asked.

Luo Lin's tears could no longer stop flowing. She lowered her head and didn't speak, looking extremely aggrieved!

Lansi reached out to wipe the tears from her face and asked gently again: "Tell me the truth. If you took her item, then this is your fault, and we must bear the consequences and price for the mistake you made."

"But if you didn't take it, and they wronged you...", Lansi cupped her face, making her look him in the eye, "then it is they who should pay the price!"
