"Mr. Lin, please forgive me. They threatened me with my parents, and I had no choice."
Bai Li looked pitiful and begged for mercy.
"Don't worry, I will keep my word and I won't sue you.
But you'd better take your parents and leave Sunan and hide for a while to avoid retaliation.
Come back when things here are over."
Lin Xiaodong put away the voice recorder, gave a friendly reminder, and left the box.
Lin Xiaodong knew that the recording could not be used as evidence, but it could at least play a key role.
In the recording, Bai Li did not say who was threatening her, and she did not know who the other person was.
But it doesn't matter. Lin Xiaodong didn't intend to clear his name with just one recording anyway.
Lin Xiaodong knew very well that if he wanted to clear his name, he had to get Hu Tianle's accomplices to recruit the mastermind.
Qian Zhen told him that it was useless to meet Hu Tianle and those people, as the police would not let him use violence to extract a confession.
Qian Zhen was right. Generally speaking, Lin Xiaodong really had no chance to use violence.
But Qian Zhen didn't know that Lin Xiaodong had unconventional means to recruit those guys even if he didn't take action.
Lin Xiaodong got in touch with An Zhiran and asked An Zhiran to help him meet Hu Tianle and his party.
An Zhiran was also worried that Lin Xiaodong would use violence and persuaded him to give up because violence would not work.
Lin Xiaodong assured An Zhiran that he would never take action and that there was a way to get Hu Tianle and his party to confess.
An Zhiran knew that Lin Xiaodong knew magic and might have a solution, so he agreed to help.
That evening, under the arrangement of An Zhiran, Lin Xiaodong met with Hu Tianle and his party.
The first person I met was Hu Tianle.
"Hu Tianle, are you okay?"
Lin Xiaodong sneered.
Hu Tianle's expression changed when he saw it was Lin Xiaodong.
"Let me out, I don't want to meet him."
Hu Tianle slapped the iron door and shouted loudly.
"Don't be nervous, I won't hit you, I just want to chat with you! Look, the surveillance is on, how could I hit you under surveillance?"
Lin Xiaodong pointed to the surveillance camera in the corner.
Hu Tianle looked up and saw that the surveillance camera was indeed on. He breathed a sigh of relief and calmed down.
"Boy, are you desperate?
Are you planning to come and beg me?
Haha... no way."
Hu Tianle changed very quickly. After he was sure that Lin Xiaodong did not dare to take action, he became arrogant.
He sat down and raised his legs to the table.
"If you take the blame for others, why bother?
Not only did you defraud, you also killed people.
If sentenced, it would be the death penalty!"
Lin Xiaodong threw a pack of cigarettes to Hu Tianle as a gesture of goodwill.
"Aren't you the mastermind?
We are all under your command, and you will be punished by death.
Naturally, we accomplices will be given a lighter sentence!"
It seems that Hu Tianle has received the news and knows that the He family is framing Lin Xiaodong.
In order to appease Hu Tianle and his entourage, the He family went to great lengths, not only giving them money, but also using their family members as threats.
Of course, he will also make a promise that he will use his connections to save their lives.
"Do you think those people behind you will let you go?
Although you are naive, they are just using you as a tool. Once you are convicted of my crime, you will also die.
They will assassinate you one by one.
Only the dead keep secrets.
By keeping your mouth shut, you are digging your own grave.
The key is that your family members will be buried with you."
Lin Xiaodong found a cigarette and handed one to Hu Tianle.
Hu Tianle stretched out his trembling hand and took one.
Lin Xiaodong ordered Hu Tianle.
"On the contrary, cooperate with me.
If you bring the mastermind to justice, you will receive a light sentence even if you have done meritorious service.
And your family will not be buried with you.
Maybe you are worried that if you tell the truth, the mastermind will kill your family immediately.
You can rest assured on this, I will personally protect your family.
You should have seen what kind of strength I am. With me protecting you, no one can touch your family."
Lin Xiaodong first stated the conditions and asked Hu Tianle to think about it.
Lin Xiaodong also knew that Hu Tianle did not trust him and would not agree.
But at least it can have an effect, letting Hu Tianle know that there is a way out.
"Boy, stop fooling me.
You kid can't protect yourself."
Hu Tianle said disdainfully.
"Are you sure?
Can I come here to see you so arrogantly, as if I can't protect myself?"
Lin Xiaodong spread his hands and said with a joking expression.
Hu Tianle was stunned. As a suspect, Lin Xiaodong could come here to meet an accomplice. This was enough to prove that Lin Xiaodong was a capable person.
However, Hu Tianle immediately shook his head and gave up the idea of cooperating with Lin Xiaodong.
No matter how powerful Lin Xiaodong is, he can't even think of comparing himself to the He family.
"It's useless what you say. I won't say anything. Just leave."
Hu Tianle put out the cigarette butt with an expression like a dead pig not afraid of boiling water.
"Hu Tianle, you are unwilling to cooperate.
Someone will definitely cooperate with me, and when the time comes, don’t regret it!”
Lin Xiaodong gestured to the surveillance camera, indicating that Hu Tianle could be taken away.
Hu Tianle stood up with a look of disdain and said: "My brothers are of the same mind as me. Without my instructions, they will never betray me."
"That's not necessarily true, we'll see!"
Lin Xiaodong smiled.
The iron door opened and Hu Tianle walked over whistling.
As soon as he reached the door, he suddenly screamed and fell down.
"What's going on? Don't pretend to be dead. Stand up!"
the guard yelled.
"My head hurts so much. There's something inside my head. Ah... help me, I'm going to die!"
Hu Tianle was not just pretending, he was tricked by Lin Xiaodong.
The cigarette that Lin Hongdong handed over was covered with spirit ant poison, and under Lin Xiaodong's spiritual thoughts, he launched an attack.
"Why are you so good and so sick? This guy must be faking it."
"It's better to call the doctor to make sure."
The two guards didn't know what to do.
"I'm the doctor, let me look at him!"
Lin Xiaodong stood up, walked to Hu Tianle, squatted down, and said to Hu Tianle: "You seem to be very ill and cannot find a cure. You may not survive tomorrow.
As luck would have it, I just have a way to cure you.
But you kid is unwilling to cooperate with me, so I’ll let you die.”
"He poisoned me, catch him quickly."
Hu Tianle yelled while holding his head and said to the guard.
"I've never touched you, how could I poison you?
It’s really ridiculous, the surveillance is recorded.”
Lin Xiaodong smiled coldly and sat back down.
"Hu Tianle, remember my job, only I can save you."
Lin Xiaodong said meaningfully.
At this time, the doctor arrived and took Hu Tianle away.
Lin Xiaodong continued to meet with the people behind him, one after another. Lin Xiaodong used different methods to bewitch these guys.
