Chapter 1921: Even the Emperor Won’t Do
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“No, no, no…”

Liu Ziqiang was so frightened that he took a few steps back. “Officer, this is a school. Don’t be like this.”

“So you f*cking know this is a school?”

Lin Yi’s heart was still burning with anger. If this was any other place, he would have kicked him.

“I’m telling the two of you, it’s best not to say anything here. As an educator, you didn’t want to deal with something like this. Instead, you helped them hide it. The two of you will definitely be punished.”

Liu Ziqiang and Zhao Huilei broke out in cold sweat. They had worked so many years to climb to their current positions. If they were exposed here, they would definitely be stripped of their positions.

The only hope now was to work with the parents of these students to pressure this police officer. In order to protect their jobs, they naturally did not dare to act rashly.

Therefore, they could not give up. They had to stand on the students’ side.

Otherwise, there would be no chance for this at all.

Thinking of this, Liu Ziqiang became excited again.

“Officer, as an educator, my job is to protect my students,” Liu Ziqiang said.

“As for the Liu Peipei you mentioned, something like this did happen before. At that time, we also actively dealt with it. We called the parents to school and compensated them. Liu Peipei’s parents also agreed. What else do you want us to do?”

“Was the result of your mediation a compensation of 1,000 yuan? Do you think it’s reasonable?”

“There’s nothing unreasonable about it. As long as both sides agree on a resolution, it’s reasonable.”

“Awesome. Your ability to twist words and reason is indeed impressive.”

Lin Yi raised his thumb and asked, “I want to know, from the time Sun Peipei was injured until now, several hours have passed. What have you done to address it?”

“This…”

Liu Ziqiang was at a loss for words because they hadn’t taken any action at all.

“We will contact their parents as soon as possible to handle this matter.”

“And how soon is ‘as soon as possible’?” Lin Yi raised an eyebrow and questioned.

“You haven’t dealt with it for all this time, and now you say ‘as soon as possible’?”

“Officer, please understand, we have many responsibilities and can’t devote all our attention to this single issue, so it took us some time.”

“Since you haven’t handled it promptly, there’s no need for you to handle it now,” Lin Yi said.

“This is a criminal case, and you’re not qualified to deal with it. I’m taking them away now. You two, step aside.”

“No way!”

Liu Ziqiang said righteously.

“As the vice-principal of Yucai High School, I cannot let you take these students away!”

“You sure talk a lot of nonsense.”

Lin Yi reached for Gu Yiran’s waist, took his service pistol, and pointed it at Liu Ziqiang’s head.

Instantly, the office fell silent.

Thud!

Liu Ziqiang collapsed to the ground, trembling uncontrollably. It was the first time in his life that a gun had been pointed at his head.

The fear stemming from deep within made it impossible for him to stay calm.

The dozen students standing by the wall were no different, their faces pale and bodies trembling, huddling together instinctively for comfort.

“Get out of my way!”

Liu Ziqiang swallowed his saliva and retreated with his hands and feet.

Zhao Huilei, who was standing at the side, was the same. She didn’t dare to say anything in front of Lin Yi.

“Alright, Lin Yi, put the gun away,” Li Xianghui said.

In reality, many of Lin Yi’s methods had already crossed the line.

However, he was also furious that such a thing had happened.

So he didn’t stop Lin Yi, but now, he had no choice.

Lin Yi was young and hot-tempered. If he was allowed to do as he pleased, there might be chaos, and the other party might have something to use against him.

Hence, he had to know when to stop.

Lin Yi put away the gun and handed it back to Gu Yiran. Then, he said to the twelve people standing by the wall,

“Kneel down and put your hands on your heads!”

“Why should I listen to you?”

The boy who spoke was called Zhou Zihang. His hair was a little long and it had been permed. It was not the image a junior high school student should have.

“Let me tell you, my father is the director of the television station. If you dare to touch me, my father will make you suffer!”

“I’ll wait for your father to come. I’ll see what he’s capable of.”

Zhou Zihang took out his phone and dialed his father’s number. He said with tears in his eyes,

“Dad, come to the school quickly. There are a few police officers who want to arrest me.”

“The director of your school has already called me.” Zhou Zihang’s father, Zhou Guotou, said.

“Are those policemen with you?”

“We’re in the office.”

“Turn on the loudspeaker. I want to talk to them.”

“It’s on.”

“I’m Zhou Guotao. Where is your person-in-charge?”

Li Xianghui was about to speak when Lin Yi beat him to it.

“If there’s anything, just tell me.”

“You guys should be from the Xinshan branch, right?” Zhou Guotao said.

“I’m the director of Zhonghai TV Station, Zhou Guotao. You don’t have to go through so much trouble over such a small matter. I’ll educate him well when we get back. Let’s just give each other some face.”

“Who do you think you are? Do I need you to give me face?” Lin Yi said coldly.

“Let me tell you, even if you’re the emperor, it wouldn’t work today.”

“You!”

It was obvious that Zhou Guotao didn’t expect Lin Yi to say this.

“From your voice, you sound very young. Don’t be so rash. It won’t be good for your future career.”

“F*ck…”

Lin Yi scolded impatiently, “You don’t even know how long your position will last, and you’re still trying to act tough in front of me? I’ll say it again, even if the heavens come, it won’t work. I’ll deal with them today.”

Zhou Zihang’s hands trembled. The reason why he dared to be so arrogant was because of his father.

Now that his father couldn’t even speak properly, it was really over.

“Alright, wait for me. I’ll go over now!”

With that, Zhou Guotao hung up.

Lin Yi closed his eyes and leaned back on the sofa, waiting for the man to come over.

Li Xianghui and Gu Yiran remained silent.

Although Lin Yi’s actions were a little radical, they were all within the scope of the law.

Therefore, they did not step forward to stop him.

At this moment, hurried footsteps sounded outside the corridor. At the same time, there were curses.

The office door was pushed open with a creak.

Lin Yi saw a few people standing outside. They were all beautifully dressed middle-aged men and women. There were also a few bodyguards.

“What’s going on? This is such a big commotion. Even the police are here.”
