After all, since this happened, the heat between him and Lin Yi has already risen anyway. If the two sides can really face each other in the next round of the quarterfinals, the heat will definitely be extraordinary.
When the time comes, Lin Yi will be an excellent stepping stone under his feet!
In fact, his goal has been achieved.
At this moment, various underground handicaps in the market have already opened the default handicap for Luo Xianwang and Lin Yi in advance. Gamblers from all sides were like sharks smelling the smell of blood, and they immediately rushed to place their bets.
In the last game of the second round, Li Shenzhou, the fifth in the Tiangang rankings, faced off against No Sleep, the 21st in the Tiangang rankings.
It's another strong showdown full of gimmicks.
However, regardless of the process or the result, compared to the last round of duel between Li Shenzhou and Nie Chan, today's match was obviously inferior.
Zhang Wumian forced Li Shenzhou out, but after Li Shenzhou came on the scene, he was defeated in just ten moves.
The strength gap between the two sides is far more disparate than the ranking.
No one was surprised by this.
By killing Nie Chan in the last round, Li Shenzhou had already secured the championship of this year's Zenith Competition in advance. This is the unanimous view of most people, and today's showdown further verified this.
At this point, the second round of the Zenith Competition is over, and the top eight list is officially released.
Although the middle games were very silent, at least off the court, this round of games was full of topics and there was no shortage of talk.
As for the top eight contestants, they are all intensively researching information on potential opponents and making various targeted plans.
Lin Yi and the other three are naturally no exception.
However, just as the three of them started their meeting, they were interrupted by a group of uninvited guests.
"Lin Yi, right?"
The leader was dressed in a smart uniform, and between his brows he could not conceal the arrogance of a successful young man.
Lin Yi glanced at the uniforms of this group of people and frowned slightly: "I am."
"I am Li Wenbin from the Internal Affairs Department. I have just received a report. There is evidence that you are related to the Zenith Competition match-fixing incident. Please come with us."
Although Li Wenbin looked squarely, if you look at his eyes, there is always a sense of condescension.
It seems that in his eyes, Lin Yi, the rising newcomer, is no different from an ordinary rookie.
This man is definitely arrogant to the core.
Before Lin Yi could speak, Xu Longyin jumped out first.
"What kind of match-fixing scandal? Jiang Shenzi himself admitted it in public. He directed and acted it all. What does it have to do with Lin Yi?"
Xu Longyin looked at the other party coldly: "Don't think that the Internal Affairs Department can arrest people at will. I also have friends in the Internal Affairs Department. You can't scare me."
Although Xia Chun didn't speak, he silently took two steps forward and blocked Lin Yi behind him.
Lin Yi was a little stunned.
Strictly speaking, although he and the two are teammates, it is only temporary. The team relationship will be terminated after the Zenith Competition. Even if the relationship between them is not bad, it cannot be said to be very close.
It was really unexpected that the two of them would take the initiative to stand up for him.
Opposite is the Internal Affairs Office.
Given the prestige of the Internal Affairs Office, which student at Tiandao Academy would not go around?
Xu Longyin and Xia Chun took a lot of risks no matter what their purpose was when they came forward.
However, Li Wenbin didn't pay attention to the two of them at all, and didn't even look at them.
If he were a big boss on the Tiangang List, how much more fear would he have? Who do these two people count?
Li Wenbin's contemptuous eyes fell on Lin Yi, and he warned faintly: "The crime of violently resisting the law is not a light one. If you think you can handle it, I don't care."
As soon as the words fell, a group of experts from the Internal Affairs Office behind him were eager to take action, ready to take action at any time.
Xu Longyin and the two of them were shocked.
The people in the Internal Affairs Department have great authority. If they really get the chance and slap a big hat on you, it will be really troublesome.
However, the two of them did not give in.
It's not that they have deep feelings for Lin Yi, but they know better than anyone else that their ability to reach this point is all thanks to Lin Yi.
Once something happens to Lin Yi, all their previous efforts will be in vain, not to mention their extravagant attempts to go further, and even the qualifications they have already obtained will be in vain.
Who can bear this?
At this critical moment, to protect Lin Yi is to protect themselves!
Li Wenbin raised the corner of his mouth, as if he was about to signal for action.
When the Internal Affairs Department arrests people, what he is most happy about is that there are people who have no eyesight. This can further highlight the necessity of arresting people and even save saliva.
At this time, Lin Yi pressed Xu Longyin's shoulders and said proactively: "Don't be impulsive. I'll go with them first and come back soon. You can continue your research first."
Xu Longyin and Xia Chun looked at each other.
Even if they had never been in, they often heard about what kind of place the Internal Affairs Office was. Once they were taken into the Internal Affairs Office, very few people could escape from there unscathed.
Once Lin Yi is taken away, he might actually be trapped.
However, looking at Lin Yi's calm and composed look, the two of them were a little unsure.
After all, there is Chu Yunfan, the deputy dean, behind Lin Yi. Even the Internal Affairs Department probably wouldn't dare to mess around.
Li Wenbin laughed endlessly.
Of course he knew Lin Yi's background.
But it's a pity that what the Internal Affairs Office is least afraid of is the backstage. Not to mention just having a backstage, even if those backstage bosses come to the Internal Affairs Office in person, they have to be polite.
"Then let's go."
Li Wenbin pursed his lips and immediately ordered his men to block Lin Yi's left and right sides, as if he were dealing with prisoners.
The group of people walked across the street in such a grand manner.
Not surprisingly, it immediately attracted countless passers-by to watch.
After all, Lin Yi is now a popular fried chicken, and this is when he gets the most attention.
Lin Yi was arrested by the Internal Affairs Department!
The news spread quickly and quickly became known to everyone.
All the major markets that had just been opened on Lin Yi were immediately suspended.
Lin Yi is certainly very popular right now, but now that he has been taken away by the Internal Affairs Office, there is no doubt whether he can come out, let alone continue to participate in the quarter-finals of the Zenith Competition tomorrow.
For a moment, everyone was frantically asking why Lin Yi was arrested by the Internal Affairs Department?
Especially those gamblers who are eager to place bets for a comeback. The question they are most concerned about at this moment is when Lin Yi will come out!
Without him, once Lin Yi couldn't get out, they would have no choice but to shift their targets and place bets on others, but it was hard to say what the odds would be.
Internal Affairs Office.
Investigate a group of waiting rooms.
After Li Wenbin had Lin Yi brought in, he only asked a few symbolic questions, then left Lin Yi there and never asked any more questions.
Even Lin Yi was a little confused this time.
Although the Internal Affairs Office has huge powers, it really can't just arrest anyone it wants.
