Chapter 356: This guy Lin Li can be summed up in one word: stable!
Be brave, my friend~
In the darkness of the night, Wan Xinpeng ran as fast as he could.

The last time I ran like this was more than two months ago.

That time, I was washing my hair in the massage parlor, but the anti-pornography team came. Fortunately, I was smart and realized something was wrong after hearing the noise. I reacted in time and climbed out the window to escape.

Oh shit.

You spend your own money to kiss and do that, aren't these all import and export trade? The country clearly says it supports it, but why is it severely cracked down on in practice?

It is said that love without material things is like a pile of loose sand.

Then why do you still want to hold on to the love that you have bought with material things?

But later, Wan Xinpeng figured out the problem himself.

This statement is correct. It is not enough to just have material things. If you have more material things, and what you get in return is not a minute of love but a year of love - it becomes keeping a mistress, which is not illegal.

As for how Wan Xinpeng discovered that Yan Aosong was a cop.

Damn it, because this guy was the one who was responsible for sweeping his store that day!
Even if this thing turned into ashes, I would be able to recognize it myself.

Bro, do you think you can get into our ladybug circle just by taking off your uniform, saying a few words of affection, touching each other and singing dirty words?

Once a cop, always a cop!

This is a stain on my resume that can never be erased, haha.

Wan Xinpeng turned left and right without wasting time looking back, but his energy was quickly consumed as he ran, his breathing became increasingly heavy, and he could hardly run anymore.

But it should be thrown away.

After all, last time, he was barefoot and managed to outrun Yan Aosong who was wearing shoes.

Haha, small fry.

Wan Xinpeng stopped to catch his breath and looked back.

Lin Li: QAQ.

Lin Li, who was close by, waved his hand: "Hello, I'm Venom QAQ."

Wan Xinpeng: “?”

Then Lin Li performed the classic moves of a "scholar" - pretending to have just noticed Wan Xinpeng, covering his mouth with his fist, smiling shyly, and then touching his hair.

Looking at the stunned Wan Xinpeng, Lin Li felt a little proud.

Little guy, are you obsessed with it?

"My grass!"

Wan Xinpeng came to his senses and ran forward again.

How can this person run so fast without making any sound?

"Didn't you eat? Why are you running so slowly? Why don't you just stop running? There's no point. Take a break."

Lin Li followed him nonchalantly and stood side by side with him. He patted Wan Xinpeng on the shoulder and persuaded him.

Speaking of which, you need to eat to have the energy to run, so maybe the essence of human beings is to run on a train?

Looking at Lin Li who was strolling in the garden, Wan Xinpeng widened his eyes, then looked panicked, gritted his teeth and started to speed up.

Seeing that Wan Xinpeng refused to behave himself, Lin Li sighed and decided not to continue playing or torturing him. He had other things to do, so he simply hugged him and threw him to the ground.

"Hiss--ha--" It hurt a bit from the fall, Wan Xinpeng took a breath of cold air. He said that global warming has been caused, which is an aggravated crime, and the death penalty is recommended.

Lin Li squatted aside, looking at Wan Xinpeng with a smile.

He was not in a hurry to escort him back. He took out his phone and replied to the message Yan Aosong had just sent him. Then he asked Wan Xinpeng with a smile:

"Dude, are you well-informed? Do you have any plans to make a deal?"

"Ok?"

Wan Xinpeng, who had already resigned himself to his fate, opened his eyes that he had subconsciously closed due to the pain and looked at Lin Li in confusion: "Little brother...trade? You, you are not a cop?"

Because Wan Xinpeng believed that the cops would never say such things.

"Of course I'm not. I'm just a little hero who does it out of interest." Lin Li smiled.

"What's the deal?"

Wan Xinpeng, who had found a little hope again, asked immediately.

"How do you know those two? Since you know them, you should know a lot of potential criminals, can you introduce them to me?" Lin Li got straight to the point, "If you can, everything will be easy and there will be room for maneuver.

I have connections and energy.”

Even if it is cut, it will still die.

The reason why Lin Li asked this was that, after all, although three people were captured today, the system task would definitely only be counted once, and there were still four more tasks to be completed.

"Ah?" Hearing the request, Wan Xinpeng was stunned again, but then shook his head: "This, this is not available..."

"Not even one?" Lin Li frowned slightly, "Don't your friends plan to do anything in the near future?"

"Little brother, I really don't have any." Wan Xinpeng shook his head. "Being a thief is my part-time job. I have other things to do on weekdays. I don't know many people in the industry. Most of them have entered the periodic retirement stage after being in jail. They don't want to do it anymore. I have asked before..."

"That……"

"..."

After spending several minutes talking with Wan Xinpeng, Lin Li gained nothing.

There really isn't any valid information.

It seems that we still have to place our hopes on Dengzi and Li Sheng. Li Sheng is probably one of the friends mentioned by Wan Xinpeng.

"Okay, there's nothing more to say, let's go."

However, he didn't have too many expectations on Wan Xinpeng, so he was not disappointed. Lin Li pulled him up and took him to Building 4 in the community.

"Little brother, can you let me go?" But Wan Xinpeng's mind became active again.

Since Lin Li is not a policeman, and he even offered to trade with him just now.

That means this person's bottom line is very flexible.

That's easy, there's a chance for everything.

"Brother, if you let me go, I can give you money - not stolen money or stolen goods, but clean money. Three thousand, three thousand, what do you think of this number? I can even let my friend call you right now..."

"Anyway, you're the only one who caught up with me now, brother. It's just the two of us. If you let me go, the cop won't know about it. How great is that..."

"If the money is not enough, you can add more. Five thousand, five thousand is okay."

As for why Wan Xinpeng was so determined to run away.

It’s not that Wan Xinpeng plans to be a fugitive for the rest of his life. To be honest, in modern society, unless you have connections, you may be able to tolerate the identity of a fugitive in a short period of time, but it will be quite torturous and depressing over time.

What Wan Xinpeng wanted to do was not to be a fugitive, but to surrender himself after escaping.

This looks a bit like taking off your pants to fart - a waste of time (Wang Ze never uses this idiom).

But those who often commit crimes, get caught and go to jail know that turning oneself in is a major mitigation factor in the sentencing process.

Wan Xinpeng was also very aware of the scale of his theft case. Although the amount was large, no one was injured and nothing was actually stolen. These prerequisites would further reduce the attention paid to this case in the police station.

Of course, it is impossible to ignore myself, but it is nothing more than getting my real information from my accomplices and sending a few people to search and arrest me, without mobilizing a large amount of manpower and resources.

Under such circumstances, Wan Xinpeng is confident that he can hide for a while by finding a few trustworthy friends.

After a period of fruitless searching, the Demon Suppression Division will notify one's relatives and friends and ask them to persuade one to surrender.

Use both kindness and severity.

As long as I surrender myself at an appropriate time and show strong remorse, my sentence can be reduced by at least three months, if not half a year.

By doing this, one can even achieve the goal of "entering the room later than his two teammates, but coming out earlier than them."

This is the meaning of turning yourself in after escaping.

But Lin Li was not short of money, he was only short of the task progress, so he refused very straightforwardly and disdainfully: "No, I'm not interested."

Hearing the determination in Lin Li's voice, Wan Xinpeng followed behind with his head lowered.

It turns out that I had misjudged him. This young man has good intentions.

Come to think of it, the deal he just made might have been for justice.

Then, Lin Li paused slightly and raised his eyebrows.

——On the screen in front of me that only I can see, the progress of "gold" has increased again, and it is still a large amount.

This time Lin Li was not too surprised. After a moment of daze, he suddenly realized something - it turns out that refusing a bribe is also an abstract test of "gold"?
Reasonable, has become a system of recognized forms.

that……

"..."

Sensing a gaze, Wan Xinpeng raised his head and discovered that Lin Li, who was escorting him, had been looking at him.

"Brother, what's wrong?" Wan Xinpeng felt a little uncomfortable being stared at, so he asked awkwardly.

Lin Li: “Add a little more…”

Wan Xinpeng: "(;☉_☉)?"

I really like Wan Xinpeng’s words: “Ah?”

Seeing Wan Xinpeng still standing there stupidly, Lin Li sighed in his heart.

stupid!

The two of them were now walking next to a cake shop under a residential building.

The shop was naturally closed, and the only thing illuminating the shop was the moonlight.

But Lin Li stopped with Wan Xinpeng, then pointed at the cake in the display cabinet behind the glass wall without saying a word.

Wan Xinpeng stared blankly at the direction Lin Li pointed, then looked at Lin Li, gradually understanding everything, his eyes shining.

Lin Li's finger was now pointing at the price tag of the cake...

It’s extra money!
Wow! It turns out I was right about him!
Great! This person has evil intentions. I can be saved!

"I understand, little brother, I understand everything!" Wan Xinpeng nodded vigorously, then lowered his voice: "Seven thousand, seven thousand, how about this number?"

However, Lin Li frowned fiercely upon hearing this, and there was anger of humiliation in his voice:
"Brother, enough is enough! I say enough! Stop humiliating me with money. I have my own pride and character, and I will never bow down for a few pieces of silver! No matter how much the number is, I will not accept it!"

The system was obviously pleased with what he said, and the progress of "Jin" moved forward again.

Just like with Fire, harsh words can accelerate things, and the same is true for Metal.

However, this time, the amount that was rejected was 7,000, but the progress was only half of 5,000.

It seems that the system only calculated the increment. Therefore, Lin Li knew what was going on.

Coincidentally, Wan Xinpeng also had an idea of ​​what was going on.

Of course he understood what Lin Li said, that the money was still not enough.

However, isn’t this kid’s appetite a little too big? Isn’t even seven thousand enough?

But in order to spend less time in prison for a few months or even half a year, Wan Xinpeng gritted his teeth:

"Ten thousand, ten thousand dollars! Buddy, as long as you let me go and don't tell them where I went, I'll pay you the money within three days!"

But Lin Li stood up straight with a sharp gaze, and the youth's character and pride were fully reflected in him.

In one word, so handsome!
Hearing this, the handsome Lin Li said sternly:

"How can money shake the foundation of the rule of law? Although I am not a law enforcer, I know that the righteous path of the world cannot be violated! Brother, if you still have a conscience, you should face your mistakes instead of trying to gain personal gain!"

After saying that, Lin Li pulled Wan Xinpeng forward with firm steps.

The light of righteousness! Shines on the earth! Illuminates every dark place!
Wan Xinpeng: “?”

Damn, ten thousand dollars isn’t enough?

And who are you performing for, bro? Stop pretending now!
"Little brother, isn't this enough? Isn't it... a little too greedy? You have to think about it. I have already stolen things. I must be a little desperate. I really can't come up with much money..."

Wan Xinpeng spoke helplessly and tried to bargain.

Lin Li ignored it and just looked at the residential building next to him again, sighing softly:
"Fengsheng Community looks nice, but it's too far from my home, a full 23,000 meters away. Otherwise, I could come here more often in the future."

Wan Xinpeng: “…”

Xiling is just a town, and Fengsheng Community is not located on the edge. Not to mention that 23,000 meters is already out of the scope of Xiling. Who is so nice to say that distance is in meters instead of kilometers?

How could Wan Xinpeng not hear that this guy was pointing at him?

But Wan Xinpeng's eyes were a little gloomy.

How dare you ask for 23,000?
Does this little brother think that his time is something precious?

Twenty-three thousand, how many times would I have to steal to earn that much?

However, the look disappeared in an instant, and Wan Xinpeng replaced it with a flattering smile.

No problem. If you want the number, just tell it to him.

It’s just a matter of opening your mouth and saying a few words.

——If Wan Xinpeng really intended to give the money to Lin Li just now, now he has completely turned evil.

Anyway, this money is dishonorable and illegal, and I will have to turn myself in when the time comes.

If Lin Li dares to ask for money from me after I don't give him any, I will just give him up when I turn myself in.

Not only does this money not have to be paid at all, but this greedy person can also be taught a lesson.

"Okay, no problem! Twenty-three thousand, right? Sure! I'll give it to you! As long as you let me go now! I will definitely give it to you!" So Wan Xinpeng immediately smiled firmly.

However, Lin Li just smiled faintly and looked at Wan Xinpeng:
"How many times do I have to tell you that numbers can never measure the weight of conscience? Thousands of street vendors that you crushed are burning behind me. They tell me that I can't agree to this."

[Understand the mysteries of the Five Elements and seek to temper yourself with the power of the Five Elements (3/5)]

After seeing this news, the faint smile on Lin Li's face disappeared.

The number of 23,000 is certainly not a random report.

Lin Li had just calculated the number of tasks that could be completed based on the proportion of the task progress bar, and he had specifically reported a little more as a margin of error.

Now, it’s full!
Lin Li was happy, but Wan Xinpeng was upset.

—Isn’t this the number you gave me? Why don’t you agree?
Why the temporary price increase?

Changing your orders every day is a big taboo!
"Brother! Then just tell me the price you want. Let's stop beating around the bush and pretend to be so high and mighty. It's boring. We can negotiate on any number. Even tens of thousands is fine! Just say no!"

Therefore, Wan Xinpeng said irritably.

I'm not going to give it anyway, so it doesn't matter how much you quote.

I don't want to act with this guy anymore.

But Lin Li's mission has been accomplished.

So, he looked confused and innocent at the moment, looking at Wan Xinpeng in confusion: "Brother, what are you talking about? What price? What's the pretense? Go away and go to jail."

Wan Xinpeng: "(; ゜○゜)?"

"What do you mean I said what?! Of course it's how much money you have to pay to let me go!" Wan Xinpeng's voice was close to a roar.

Why are you yelling so loudly? Lin Li immediately became unhappy: "Didn't I say it early in the morning! "No matter how much the number is, I won't accept it." I am annoyed that you keep talking about these nonsense, it's so noisy!"

Wan Xinpeng stopped.

wrong.

No, no, no.

"Then what did you just say to me, 'add a little more'?" Wan Xinpeng asked harshly.

"Did I say that? Oh, now I remember, what I just said was that after I sent you back home, I would "order takeout at home". I guess I said the word "takeout" too softly, so you didn't hear it."

Lin Li recalled carefully, then suddenly realized and explained gently.

Wan Xinpeng: “?”

"So when you pointed at the price tag in the cake shop just now...didn't you mean to add money?" Wan Xinpeng's voice already sounded a little unconfident.

Lin Li: "I plan to order a cake when I get takeout."

Wan Xinpeng: “?”

"So what you just said about the distance between your home and here--" Wan Xinpeng's voice began to collapse.

Lin Li: "The store I plan to order from is in Fengsheng Community. I was just calculating the delivery fee."

Wan Xinpeng: “[⊙_⊙]”

"..."

"..."

night.

The two looked at each other, only to be disappointed.

Looking at the smile on Lin Li's face, Wan Xinpeng's mouth began to twitch uncontrollably——

"Ha ha ha ha!"

"Master Dao, Master Dao, I have made it!!"

……

Next to the van, because they had received Lin Li's WeChat message, Yang Liang and Yan Aosong did not go to find Lin Li, but waited for him there.

Afterwards, I heard his voice before I heard him.

"Hahaha--"

"Hahaha--"

Huang Wei looks a little strange, and his voice sounds familiar. How come Wan Xinpeng is the one who laughs last?

Did he win?
Damn it, am I going to use that Lin Li to threaten the two cops and let him and his partner go?

So handsome, Brother Wan?

I haven't seen you for a few minutes, and you've become a gangster?
But Yang Liang and Yan Aosong looked at each other and their hearts skipped a beat.

Buhao! Is the thief okay?
Finally, Lin Li and Wan Xinpeng appeared around the corner.

The moment he saw Yang Liang and Yan Aosong, Wan Xinpeng, who was smiling but had a dark and dead look in his eyes, finally had some light in his eyes.

And a little moist.

He broke free from Lin Li's restraints, which were no longer exerting any force, and rushed towards the two of them excitedly. Before Yang Liang and Yan Aosong could take a vigilant stance, he stretched out his hands forward with a bright and relieved smile:
"Catch me! Catch me now!"

"I want to go to jail! I want to go to jail!"

What a sincere regret and smile.

If Red had behaved like this back then, he wouldn't have wasted half his life in Shawshank without parole.

Yang Liang and Yan Aosong: "..."

Looking at Lin Li who was not far away and looked like "it has nothing to do with me", "I don't know", "don't look at me", "these flowers, grass and buildings are so beautiful", the two closed their eyes with complicated expressions and sighed deeply.

Why is this child so stable?

Yang Liang handcuffed Wan Xinpeng as he wished, and signaled him to go sit with his accomplices.

Wan Xinpeng the chick pecked at the rice and happily squatted beside Huang Wei.

"Go to jail~"

Huang Wei looked at Wan Xinpeng, who seemed to be mentally abnormal, and swallowed his saliva.

"Pengzi, what's wrong with you? Why are you so happy about being in jail?"

Wan Xinpeng looked at Huang Wei and smiled:
"When you're in prison, you can't order takeout, you can't eat cake, and you don't need to calculate the delivery fee. Huang Wei, listen to this, isn't this worth being happy about?"

Huang Wei: “(;☉_☉)?”

How the hell is this happy?

and many more.

Huang Wei could clearly hear the sound of himself swallowing his saliva.

——He remembered the sighs that Yang Liang and Yan Aosong expressed when they heard Lin Li running away.

[I hope the thief who ran away is okay]

At this moment, what he said actually came true!
Huang Wei thought of this and looked up at Lin Li.

At this time, Lin Li was walking towards him.

Buhao! Huang Wei rolled and crawled back: "Don't come over here——"

Damn it, who is behind me blocking my way back?

Huang Wei turned around: It was Wan Xinpeng. It turned out that he could crawl even faster.

Oh, that's okay.
