Chapter 3511: Chapter 3503: Youdrian Family

"Okay, I’m heading over now."

Ji Qingyan glanced at Lin Yi but didn’t speak, only sizing him up with her gaze.

"Don’t worry, I’m just going to catch a few thieves and will be back soon."

"You always say not to worry, but who knows when you might get hurt."

"It’s human nature; it’s something inevitable."

Lin Yi gave Ji Qingyan a peck on the cheek, preparing to head out.

"Daddy, Daddy, I want one too."

Little Nuonuo held a spoon, acting spoiled.

"Alright."

Lin Yi also gave Little Nuonuo a peck on the cheek before heading out the door.

Using his phone’s navigation, he found the address for Xinde Village, which was quite a distance from the city center. It took Lin Yi over 40 minutes to reach it.

Lin Yi met up with Mo Hongshan at the village entrance.

"Where are they?"

Mo Hongshan pointed to a red brick house not far away.

"The car is parked next to it, and I saw someone just now who looks a lot like the suspect from the video."

"Let me go in and take a look first."

Lin Yi walked over first, discovering that the area was quite cluttered, piled with many things.

At first glance, it had the feel of a scrap yard, but of a higher grade.

Because almost everything here was metal, he could even see the ground littered with brass and some scrapped vehicles.

Approaching closer, he could hear the rumbling of machines.

Someone was using a machine to cut the rubber from copper wires, working with great enthusiasm.

Soon, Lin Yi spotted the van; the license plate matched the surveillance footage.

Then, Lin Yi’s gaze shifted to other directions.

At the entrance of the brick house, he saw two people eating.

They were shirtless, holding bowls, eating heartily, completely oblivious to Lin Yi’s approach.

Lin Yi could confirm that the two eating were the thieves from last night.

"Who are you, collecting stuff?"

Seeing Lin Yi approaching, a worker stripping rubber from copper wires asked.

The two people eating at the door also looked towards Lin Yi.

When they were stealing, it was very dark and they were quite nervous, so they didn’t get a good look at Lin Yi’s face.

Conversely, it wasn’t difficult for Lin Yi to see them clearly with his night vision ability.

"Things here are already spoken for, you should go look elsewhere."

The speaker was the man known as Brother Liu, the ringleader for the event.

"A lot of stuff here was stolen from Fenglin Shengjing Phase 2, right?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present turned to Lin Yi, their expressions not pleasant.

"Who are you, why do you care so much? What’s it got to do with you?"

The group put down their work and approached Lin Yi, trying to intimidate him with their presence.

"I’m a security guard from Phase 1, and we’re responsible for Phase 2 as well. You stealing stuff affects our salaries, so of course it has something to do with us.

"You’re a security guard from the complex?"

"Yes, I was the one who caught you last night, but I was delayed by some things and came to find you today."

Their expressions were not pleasant, even a bit fierce.

"Buddy, we’re just trying to make a living, everyone’s in the same boat, don’t make things difficult for us."

The man named Brother Liu found a dirty bag, took out 500 yuan from it.

"Take this 500 yuan, buy a pack of cigarettes, and let’s forget this. We won’t come to steal again."

"I know it’s not easy, but stealing is wrong," Lin Yi said:

"I’ll give you a chance, return all the stolen goods and this will be forgotten."

"That’s going too far, we need to eat too; returning things is impossible. You’re just a security guard, you should know when to back down, it’s not good for you."

Lin Yi raised an eyebrow and glanced at him.

"I’m informing you, not negotiating."

"I’m clearly telling you, that’s impossible. Don’t interrupt my business, take the money or we’ll beat you up."

"You might not even be my match."

"Damn, get him!"

The man called Brother Liu led the call.

Five accomplices charged all at once.

Smack!

Lin Yi raised his hand, giving a slap to the opponent’s face.

The man called Brother Liu was knocked to the ground, mouth full of blood, a few teeth fallen out.

This slap made the rest afraid to act recklessly.

Having been thieves for so long, they’d never seen someone strike so harshly.

At this moment, Mo Hongshan approached with ten people at a jog.

Seeing these uniformed individuals, Brother Liu and his gang were stunned.

We were just stealing, how did this alarm the military?!

This isn’t even a military-owned fiber optic cable!

"I think these people are a bit off, they don’t seem to be the same group as last night."

"Forgot to tell you, they’re just ordinary thieves, I was at Phase 2 last night specifically to catch them."

"Turns out they’re just thieves, got worked up for nothing."

"Haha..."

"Take them back and hand over to the police, no need for us to worry about such trivial matters."

"Alright."

Mo Hongshan arranged for the capture of the group.

The group looked forlorn, never imagining that stealing some things would cause so much trouble.

After capturing them, the police handled the follow-up work.

Lin Yi didn’t immediately return home but went to see Li Chuhan, had her change some medicine for him, and stayed with her for a while before leaving.

Early the next morning, Lin Yi went to work as usual and recounted the capture of the thieves to Ma Weiguo, who reported it to Liu Jingfeng, thus earning significant credit.

"Brother Ma, Lin Bro captured all the thieves, this should help your promotion, right?"

"It’s all settled, just waiting for the announcement," Ma Weiguo said:

"I’ll host dinner tomorrow night, inform the family."

"No can do, I’m on shift tomorrow night," Yang Wencheng said.

"No problem, I’ll have the second team come over."

"Switching sides so quickly?"

"That bunch of fence-sitters started cozying up as soon as word got out, having them stand in for a shift will be fine."

"Great, we’ll drink well tomorrow night."

"But work during the day goes on; the company’s president is coming, make sure to handle grooming and sanitation issues, don’t screw up at this critical moment or I’m out."

"Understood."

Because the leader was coming for inspection, Lin Yi was busy all day.

Main tasks involved inspecting fire safety facilities in various buildings and addressing some uncivil phenomena within the complex.

That evening after work, Lin Yi received a call from Xiao Bing.

"Boss, we’ve found some information. They’re people of the Arctic Fox, taking orders from someone named Fabao’er, affiliated with the Youdrian Family."
