Judging from Lynn's performance in the mining field, his new knowledge of writing novels, and his acquaintance with Reiner, the second young master of the Fernando family, his background is definitely unusual.
"It's nonsense." Lin En only told Fan Lun about his past experiences, so he was not worried and firmly denied it, "Even if I really said that, so what? Will this matter affect the contract? Will you because of my background?
Are you poor or from a well-off family and raising or lowering the novel manuscript fee?"
Fan Lun was speechless.
He can't really admit that he will not only pay attention to the quality of submissions, but also pay attention to the background of the contributors to determine the remuneration, and then make deductions to a greater or lesser extent.
That would be tantamount to not asking for trouble.
"This matter is quite complicated..." After Lin En and Fan Lun spoke many times, Eden's mind was a little confused.
"It's not complicated. In a nutshell, editor Fan Lun deducted the author's royalties, signed a contract with me, breached the contract without permission, and now he wants to ask me for liquidated damages." Lin En shortened the previous lengthy statement into one sentence.
.
"You..." Fan Lun was so angry that his chest heaved violently, "You are obviously the one who slandered me and our newspaper, and you also stole the name of the Fernando family to make illegal profits!"
"Okay, let's follow what Mr. Fan Lun said. First, we will go to the newspaper office to investigate, and then interview some other contributors, and compare whether there is any difference in the contribution fees between the two sides. Second, we will contact Reiner of the Fernando family tomorrow and ask him
Do you know me or not, and have you agreed to ask your newspaper to terminate the contract?" Lin En took full advantage and responded to Fan Lun's doubts generously.
He also couldn't understand where Fan Lun got the confidence to fight him to the end.
If Fan Lun accepted it obediently and waited for Reiner to contact the newspaper, it would be difficult to discover that he secretly made a profit from it.
"Well, Lynn has already given a solution. I wonder if Mr. Van Lun has any objections?" Eden felt that it was absolutely fine to do as Lynn said.
"Of course!" Fan Lun said with force, "We should first investigate whether he really knows Mr. Reiner! If it is false, I think there is no need to investigate other matters! Just arrest him,
Just let him pay the liquidated damages!"
Lin En had no objection: "It's okay."
"Can't we go to Mr. Reiner to verify directly?" Eden asked.
"Of course, but as far as I know, Reiner has some things to do today, so it would be best to deal with this matter tomorrow." Of course, Linn also wanted to contact Reiner.
If Reiner could be contacted as soon as possible, this matter would not have developed to this point.
However, Fan Lun was at the end of his rope and insisted that Lin En was deliberately delaying time: "Today! If you don't dare, there is something wrong! Adjutant Eden, you must keep an eye on him and be careful of him escaping!"
"If he wants to run away, I probably won't be able to stop him." Eden smiled.
"Mr. Fan Lun, I'll give you one last chance." Linn really didn't want to bother Reiner on the day of the mission. If it were him, he would definitely be too busy on the day of the mission to deal with this kind of thing. "I can
Assume that none of these things have happened, and you do not need to be held accountable for the price difference you earned. You can return to the newspaper now and wait patiently for Lena to contact you tomorrow. At that time, Lena will directly contact the newspaper and terminate the contract. What you have done
None of it will be exposed.”
Lin En simply didn't want to disturb Reiner today and returned everything to the starting point, which would be better for both sides.
However, from Fan Lun's perspective, he could only regard Lin En's sudden change in attitude as a sign of weakness and to please.
Just now he was aggressive, now he is showing weakness.
Why?
I can only feel guilty!
"Haha, I'm afraid you'll pursue me? I'm upright and aboveboard, what's there to be afraid of?!" Fan Lun, who felt good about himself, decided to pursue the victory, "Adjutant Eden! I request you to contact Mr. Reiner of the Fernando family immediately to verify the situation.
!”
"Lynn, what do you think?" Eden was inclined to trust Linn.
All right……
I gave you a chance but you didn’t use it...
Lin En could only agree: "Then let's contact Mr. Reiner on the phone. If he is here, explain clearly on the phone and it will not delay his personal affairs. If he is not here, we will wait until tomorrow. If Mr. Fan Lun is afraid that I will run away,
Now, I can stay with you all the time, and I don’t even mind going to the Sheriff’s Bureau to stay for one night. After all, I’m only staying for one night, and you’ll probably have to stay there for the rest of your life.”
"Haha, you are still so tough-mouthed when you are about to die. Stop pretending, you can only blame yourself for not knowing how to do it." Fan Lun had a bad premonition in his heart, but he was more confident.
It was a miracle that Lynn, who was born in the slums, could meet a prominent person like Eden.
He doesn’t believe that Linn knows Reiner from the Fernando family!
He didn't believe that Reiner of the Fernando family would come forward to negotiate with the newspaper about terminating the contract for such an ordinary person!
"Bevis, go and get in touch." Eden ordered.
"Yes." Beavis, who was pulled by Fan Lun to support the scene, quickly went out and went to confirm.
After a while, Beavis returned to Lynn's room and reported to Eden under the watchful eyes of everyone: "We got in touch. Mr. Reiner from the Fernando family said... that he will be here soon."
"Come here in person?" Eden straightened his back subconsciously.
"Yes." Beavis swallowed.
Fan Lun asked: "Mr. Reiner said he knew Lynn?"
"I didn't say anything. I just said he would come over later."
"Then did he ask for your address?" Fan Lun wanted to make further judgments.
If Reiner came over without asking for the address, it meant that he really knew Linn.
If Reiner asked for the address, then Lynn must have lied!
"I asked which floor and which room it was on," Sheriff Beavis replied.
"Ha-ha!" Fan Lun didn't notice that Lena didn't ask which apartment Linn lived in. He hurriedly put down his worries, and then looked at Linn with gloating, "You're done now! Lena of the Fernando family
Mr. Na is coming in person! Let him know that someone is using his name to defraud, do you know what will happen to you?!"
"What's the end?" Linn asked casually, feeling a little surprised that Reiner would come over.
Generally speaking, shouldn’t this be the time to prepare for new cleanup tasks?
In particular, the cleaning tasks of extraordinary beings are often at level three or level four, so there is no room for sloppiness.
Reiner is so laid-back? So he doesn't take the cleaning task seriously?
"You still dare to ask me what my fate will be?! Let me tell you! The Fernando family has many means to make you regret it every day, every minute, every second for the rest of your life! You regret pulling their banner to build momentum for yourself!" Fan Lun
Cross your legs and relax like never before.
"Lynn, are you really..." Eden was also a little worried.
The Fernando family is the veritable emperor of Tswold.
Even the director of the Public Security Bureau, Adel, was respectful in front of the Fernando family's talkers.
If Linn really told a lie, his life might be at risk.
"Let's wait and see." Lin En wanted to see how long Fan Lun could keep smiling.
"Haha." Fan Lun began to cynicize Linn frequently, looking forward to dealing with this arrogant pariah severely when Reiner arrived.
Lin En simply stopped talking to Fan Lun.
Also waiting for Reiner to arrive and end this farce.
Another forty minutes passed.
Reiner finally came over in a car in a low-key manner. Accompanied by two attendants, he climbed to the second floor of the apartment and came to the door of Linn's room.
"Dong dong dong."
There was a knock on the door.
Everyone in the room who was debating whether to go downstairs to greet him, except Lin En, all stood up.
Eden even took the initiative to come to the door, took a deep breath and opened the door. When he saw standing outside, it was really Fernando Lena, who was famous in Tswold City. He immediately bowed and saluted: "Mr. Lena
, I am Deputy Eden of the Public Security Bureau, and I am in charge of investigating this matter."
"Mr. Rainer."
"Mr. Rainer."
The other two sheriffs just followed Eden and saluted without announcing their identities.
"He is..." The landlord, Old Noel, opened his mouth wide with a look of astonishment on his face.
Isn't this the young man who came to see Lin En yesterday and asked him to leave a message when he saw that Lin En was not there?!
"Mr. Reiner!" Fan Lun squeezed past the landlord, Old Noel, and came to the door with a smile on his face, "There is someone here pretending to be your friend and using your name to cheat!"
"Can you let me in first?" Reiner looked at the group of people blocking the door and said helplessly.
Only then did everyone, who was a little nervous, react and retreat to both sides in a chaotic manner, making way for Reiner to pass through.
"That's him!" Fan Lun pointed to the seated Lynn, "Lynn! Why don't you be polite when you see the distinguished Mr. Reiner?"
"There shouldn't be any need to be so polite between us." Lin En waved to Reiner, "Sit down."
"What's going on?" Reiner sat next to Linn under everyone's gaze.
"I didn't want to trouble you, but I thought things were a bit beyond my control." Lin En smiled bitterly and poured Reiner a glass of water, "Aren't you busy over there?"
"Fortunately, I planned to have lunch before taking action." Reiner raised his head and glanced around the people in the room, "If it hadn't been for the call from the Public Security Bureau, I would have been on my way to the Tswold Daily News.
I'll help you resolve the contract."
"That's good, let's just settle it here." Lin En asked the others to sit down and chat, and especially reminded Fan Lun, who seemed to have turned into a statue. "Sit down, Mr. Fan Lun? Sit down and chat, how can you
Don’t you want the distinguished Mr. Reiner to keep talking to you with his head raised?”
Listening to Lin En and Reiner's obviously familiar conversation, Fan Lun's vision went dark, his whole body felt numb, and he had a strong urge to urinate.
Lin En actually knew Reiner, the second young master of the Fernando family...
How could he know Reiner!
How could a pariah talk and laugh with Reiner!
Now it's all over.
He had already broken up with Lin En, called people from the Public Security Bureau, and forced a big shot like Reiner to come in person.
It’s definitely too late to bow your head and admit your mistake now... Kneel down and kowtow... Will it help?
Not only him, Eden was also upset when he saw this.
Lin En brought him almost too many surprises to count.
What kind of background does this person have, and he seems to be on an equal footing with Reiner?!
Despite being shocked, Eden also felt enlightened and grateful.
No wonder Lynn refused to join the Sheriff's Department.
Fortunately, I took the initiative to get to know him.
He can now be quite sure that becoming friends with Lin En is definitely a great deal!
To put it in layman’s terms, it means you are trying to reach a higher level!
"I heard on the phone that they suspected you were stealing my name?" Reiner joked, "How do you feel?"
"It's nothing, I just want to prove myself quickly and solve this problem." Lin En felt a little embarrassed.
It's really embarrassing for Reiner to take action because of this trivial matter.
"It's okay. If we move around more in the future, we won't have such questions——"
"thump."
Before Reiner could finish what he said, Fan Lun, who had been listening for a while, his legs became weak and he sat down on the ground.
Immediately afterwards, a scene appeared that embarrassed both Fan Lun and everyone present.
I saw where Fan Lun was sitting, a pool of urine exuding a foul smell began to collect...
