The Super Bodyguard of the Beautiful CEO

Chapter 302: Chapter 293: Framed

"Hmm, Boss Lin, I’ll handle your matter considerately, but it’s best not to go too far. Even if I can suppress it, it’s not easy to deal with District Committee Secretary Lei Gang over there. You understand what I mean, right?" Chen Luyou glanced at Lin Mu and said.

Lin Mu naturally understood what Chen Luyou meant. Because of Lei Qiming’s situation, Lei Gang was definitely holding a grudge. Lei Gang was also the Deputy Secretary of the District Committee of Wancheng South District, almost the power holder of South City. With such an incident happening, Lei Gang definitely wouldn’t let him off the hook easily.

"Rest assured, I will handle this matter properly, but I still ask Captain Chen to give me some cover!" Lin Mu smiled and said. Actually, this matter was still up to Chen Luyou to decide. After all, as the person in charge of the police squad, with a drug-related incident occurring, the Flying Dragon KTV’s operating license could be revoked completely!

"I’ll handle it considerately, so just rest assured, Boss Lin, but your KTV needs to be closed for a few days for rectification; otherwise, it won’t be easy to explain to the public!" Chen Luyou said.

"No problem with that." Lin Mu nodded.

At this moment, several policemen escorted a few men down from upstairs, and then a policeman walked up to Chen Luyou and whispered a few words.

Chen Luyou nodded in acknowledgment, "Wrap it up!"

Chen Luyou waved his hand and said to Lin Mu, "Boss Lin, we’re leaving first then."

Then a group of policemen took the few men who were using drugs out of the Flying Dragon KTV. Lin Mu watched the back of Chen Luyou, "Bastard, that son of a bitch better end up at a hotel tonight and die from too much free food and drink!"

After the police left, Lin Mu explained the situation to all the customers properly, and sincerely apologized, even promising that all expenses for the day would be free. The customers, appeased, all expressed understanding, since it hadn’t caused them any loss!

In the event of a drug-related incident, no matter the severity, business had to be suspended for rectification. After the customers dispersed, Lin Mu called over Fei, "Fei, what’s going on? Wasn’t there a ban on drug use here?"

"Brother Lin, it’s all my fault, you can punish me! I didn’t check thoroughly enough and let them exploit a loophole!" Fei said.

Lin Mu knew that this actually wasn’t Fei and the others’ fault. It was clearly someone targeting him on purpose, deliberately setting a trap — impossible to guard against. With so many guests coming and going, it’s challenging to notice!

"I’ve looked into it, this isn’t your fault!" Lin Mu patted Fei on the shoulder and said.

"Brother Lin, these people were all unfamiliar faces; we’ve never seen them before. I know all who used to do drugs here, and anyone hanging out here is familiar to me, but I’ve never seen these few people. Coming in, they immediately started using that stuff; I’m afraid they came on purpose to cause trouble!" Fei analyzed.

"You’ve never seen these people before?" Lin Mu asked.

"No. When Zhang Yangwei was the boss here, we knew those who mixed in here. These people clearly aren’t from South City." Fei nodded in affirmation.

Lin Mu stroked his stubble thoughtfully; this situation was interesting. There were two possibilities. If it wasn’t Lei Gang sending people, then it was the Corpse Emperor. According to Lei Qiming’s statement, he did know that woman named Purple Clothes!

However, it’s unlikely that Lei Gang arranged for people to cause trouble. First, because he’s within official circles, he wouldn’t hire these hoodlums. If word got out, it wouldn’t be a small matter. To someone aiming for a higher position, an official’s rank is more important than anything else. The struggle upwards is arduous, and they’re not willing to give it up easily.

On the other hand, these hoodlums being caught would result in jail time, indicating they were given numerous benefits, and also likely threats, since nobody would willingly go to prison. Given the current situation, it seems Lei Gang doesn’t have that capability!

"Alright, let’s leave it at that for now. I’ll manage this matter. If you’re free, try to gather information on these people. The more we know, the better, but if we can’t find anything, it’s no big deal!" Lin Mu patted Fei on the shoulder and said.

"Yes, Brother Lin, rest assured, we will do our best to handle this matter!" Fei nodded.

Lin Mu glanced at Zhou Furong and Guo Meimei, "I suspect this is the work of the Corpse Emperor. Only she has this capability!"

"Corpse Emperor?" Zhou Furong furrowed her brow.

"That’s right. This matter can’t be explained in a few words, but I estimate the Corpse Emperor has made a move. You all need to be vigilant these days. I’ll do my best to find her. I promise you, I will make good on the matter I’ve promised!"

Zhou Furong and Guo Meimei nodded, "We believe in you, handle your affairs first. We will also look for the Corpse Emperor’s whereabouts. No matter what, we must find her this time!"

"Alright, let’s deal with it this way first. I’ll head back to the Foot Bath Pavilion once. It’s troubling you here to take care of things!"

"Brother Lin, rest easy. Leave it to us here!" Zhou Furong nodded.

So, Lin Mu left the KTV, took a taxi heading back to East City’s Flying Dragon Foot Bath Pavilion, and called Earth Wolf on the road, learning that those drug-using hoodlums had already been secured in the basement!

Qi Manlin had merely conducted a routine check without making a big scene, and this is the difference between having a solid background or not. In South City, Lin Mu’s connections weren’t deep, necessitating suspension and rectification, while in East City, due to Qi Manlin’s connections, nothing happened at all! Soon, Lin Mu returned to the Foot Bath Pavilion, with Earth Wolf and others waiting in the basement.

"Boss, you finally came!"

Lin Mu entered the basement, Earth Wolf approached to greet him. Lin Mu nodded, looking at the bruised hoodlums, "Who sent you?"

The hoodlums glanced at Lin Mu but none spoke, clearly already arranged.

"Heh, looks like this was planned well in advance!" Lin Mu smirked coldly.

"Boss, why don’t I kill one to see if they still won’t talk!" Earth Wolf suggested.

Lin Mu waved his hand, chuckled, "Killing them like this would be too cheap. Heh, I’d like them to experience a fate worse than death!"

"Idiots, hurry up. The boss is asking you a question!" Earth Wolf impatiently stepped forward and kicked. noveldrama

"No one sent us. We just wanted to do drugs, so we did!" The hoodlums said in unison.

"Oh? Really? Wanted to do drugs, so you did? Heh, seems you’re not planning to talk. Earth Wolf, hand me a dagger!" Lin Mu instructed.

"Here you go, boss!" Earth Wolf handed Lin Mu a sharp dagger.

Lin Mu took it and toyed with it in his hand, looking at the hoodlums in front of him, "Speak up, who sent you to set me up?"

The hoodlums looked at Lin Mu and still gritted their teeth, saying, "No one, no one sent us!"

"Stubborn!" Lin Mu sneered, swinging the dagger decisively, slicing off a piece of fresh, red flesh.
