Chapter 304 Have You Killed Before?
"Sister Li, you don't really want to arrest Lin Chuan, do you?"
Qin Yun looked at Sister Li with a face full of surprise.
"Before, I couldn't say, but today, do you guess whether I really want to?"
Sister Li chuckled and winked.
Seeing this, Qin Yun immediately realized that Li Tong was joking.
He followed with a laugh, "You've been observing for most of the day, have you really seen through Lin Chuan?"
Find adventures on empire
Li Tong nodded slightly, "I can't say that I've seen through him, perhaps I've just caught a glimpse of something. After all, I've only read two books, 'agent' and 'assassin', and only a small part of them. Please arrange a meeting with him for me, if not dinner then supper."
"Sure."
Qin Yun immediately took out his phone and dialed Lin Chuan's number.
Beep beep beep—
"Comrade Lin Chuan," Qin Yun said with a laugh as the call connected.
"Hello, Officer Qin."
Lin Chuan replied.
"Are you free tonight? We'd like to invite you to dinner, to get to know each other better, which will facilitate future cooperation," Qin Yun said, glancing over at Li Tong.
Li Tong's smile remained, and she nodded slightly in agreement.
Lin Chuan was a bit surprised at first upon receiving Qin Yun's invitation but then smiled and quickly accepted, "I would be delighted."
Lin Chuan still desired to reach cooperation with the International Police.
It was a key part of his plan.
It was also the core force in taking down the Morgan and Baisheng conglomerates.
If it were up to him alone, he'd have to use his own methods.
It could be difficult to control the scale that way, and any carelessness could lead to the risk of ending up at the police station.
It would be fierce.
And indeed criminal!
Cooperating with official organizations like the International Police and the Han River police was legal and proper, with no worries about subsequent trouble, and it also constituted an act of justice.
Secure!
"How about Jude Fang, tonight at seven?" Qin Yun set the time and place.
Lin Chuan readily agreed.
On the other side, Li Tong also nodded with a smile.
It was a sign of satisfaction with Qin Yun and joy at Lin Chuan's acceptance—or perhaps, she felt a sense of anticipation, eagerly wanting to meet Lin Chuan.
Ever since she had read parts of the two novels about Lin Chuan, she had too many doubts.
So, she really wanted to ask Lin Chuan what was going on!
"It's all set."
Qin Yun looked at Li Tong.
Li Tong nodded happily, "Maybe, Lin Chuan really has the confidence."
"Sister Li, are you referring to taking down the Morgan and Baisheng conglomerates in one fell swoop?" Qin Yun was somewhat surprised.
"I'm not sure if that's it, but we should get some answers tonight," Li Tong murmured softly.
The sun slanted westward.
Like a thin veil, the clouds at dusk this winter evening took on a touch of orange and golden glow, like delicate satin draped over the rustling bushes in the evening breeze, light flickering through the gaps in the leaves, interlaced with shadows, indescribably meaningful.
Soon, seven o'clock in the evening arrived.
When the days are short and the nights are long, the yellow glow in the sky fades, streetlights light up one by one, and the moonlight, like water, spreads a veil-like night color slowly outside Jude Fang.
Lin Chuan arrived at Jude Fang punctually.
It was a place known for its local cuisine. On an ordinary day, it was bustling with business. Lin Chuan passed through the lobby, went up to the second floor, and then pushed open a private room named 'Purple Cloud Pavilion.'
Inside was a Chinese-style decor, tea table, landscape paintings, quite possessing the charm of ink and water.
As the invitees, Li Tong and Qin Yun naturally arrived earlier than Lin Chuan.
Here they were, both in plain clothes, having specially prepared tea, quietly waiting for Lin Chuan's arrival.
Lin Chuan entered, "Good evening to both of you."
"Comrade Lin Chuan, please have a seat."
This time, Li Tong got up proactively to greet him, signaling Lin Chuan to sit at the tea table first, with a smile on her face and a bright gleam in her eyes.
This somewhat surprised Qin Yun nearby.
Being an International Police agent himself, he knew Li Tong's rank and was even more familiar with her proud worth.
At the unit, there weren't many who could cause Li Tong to rise for a greeting.
Zhao Haiping was one.
But what was Zhao Haiping's rank?
He was a figure ranked even higher than Elder Zhong from the Han River police.
Now, Li Tong had actually stood up to greet Lin Chuan.
Out of politeness?
Perhaps partly, but certainly not just out of politeness.
Qin Yun also quickly stood up, smiled wide, and looked at Lin Chuan, sizing him up discreetly.
Today, Lin Chuan was dressed in a black jacket, not the administrative kind, adorned with a Tiger logo on his chest, with casual pants below, looking spirited overall.
Under the bright lights of Jude Fang, Lin Chuan's clean and handsome face could be seen, with brows suggesting an extraordinary temperament, possessing a steadiness entirely mismatched with his age, a clear and profound gaze as if experienced in life, able to see through many things.
Qin Yun thought, if Lin Chuan put on an administrative jacket and held a thermos cup in his hand,
Then, he would be just like a leader at Zhao Haiping's level!
Completely charismatic!
However, Lin Chuan also had the vigor and spirit unique to youth.
The more he looked, the more Qin Yun felt that Lin Chuan had a quality that set him apart from the ordinary.
It was well-known that recognition among peers holds more weight, especially since Qin Yun himself was an elite among the police, a standout among his peers, brimming with charm, a sought-after bachelor in Modu's matchmaking scene.
Now, Qin Yun was full of admiration for Lin Chuan.
At this moment,
Lin Chuan sat down, noticed Qin Yun's gaze, blinked, and laughed, "Officer Qin, what are you observing exactly?"
Qin Yun snapped out of his thoughts, laughed, and replied, "Comrade Lin Chuan, you seem to possess an even more unique aura now."
