"What? You can neutralize the poison from Heaven?" Xiao Selang almost popped his eyes out in shock.
"I can, as long as you behave, neutralizing the poison is a trivial matter." Beneath the bronze mask, Lin Hai's voice brimd with confidence.
"But, I've also sought many dical experts, and they couldn't even detect the toxins in my body..." Xiao Selang said with a bitter smile.
The unbearable pain every ti the poison from Heaven acted up was unforgettable for him. Although he submitted to Hailing, nobody would willingly host a ticking ti bomb inside their body.
If the poison from Heaven could be neutralized, Xiao Selang would definitely want it, but he sowhat doubted if Yama Lord could truly achieve it.
"I've also been poisoned by Heaven before, and I neutralized it myself. Do you still have doubts?" Lin Hai spoke indifferently.
"What?" Xiao Selang was once again taken aback.
Suddenly, a clear thought ford in his mind—no wonder Yama Lord ca to him; it turned out Yama Lord had a vendetta with the RX organization too!
Having understood this, so of the pressure in Xiao Selang's heart eased. He tentatively asked, "Yama Lord, when will my poison be neutralized?"
"That depends on your performance. If you comply obediently, I will treat you once a month, and in about a year, you will be completely freed from the control of Heaven's poison."
"I will obey; I definitely will obey," Xiao Selang hastily nodded.
"Good, hand over all the evidence of your collusion with Yu Hailing and the RX organization," Lin Hai said unapologetically.
Xiao Selang's face showed difficulty; after all, Young Master Yu's prestige was well known. Although he was from the Xiao Family in Yanjing, his status was average, while Yu Hailing was a direct lineage of the Yu Family in Yanjing—killing him would be as easy as playing.
"What? Are you having second thoughts?" A commanding cold hum ca from beneath the bronze mask.
Xiao Selang bitterly smiled and said, "Yama Lord, with Young Master Yu's background, it's simply not sothing I can contend with, and his uncle, Yu Tianlong, is a Supre Strong. Although I'm not clear about what a Supre Strong is, I do know that it is very difficult to find a couple of them in Huaxia."
His implication was clear; Xiao Selang was worried that Lin Hai wasn't powerful enough to keep him alive.
His greatest fear was death because it ant losing everything; he still wanted to continue living. Whoever could guarantee his luxury and safety, he would listen to them.
"Supre Strong?" Lin Hai scoffed from behind the mask.
"I've killed a few Supre Strongs."
"What?" Xiao Selang was shocked again.
Could Yama Lord's strength have surpassed even the Supre Strong?
He knew, at Yama Lord's level, exaggerating one's own strengths and achievents was neither customary nor believable as it would affect their reputation in the international underworld.
Even so, Xiao Selang was still astonished; Yama Lord spoke so casually and carefree, as though Supre Strongs were utterly insignificant in his eyes.
However, Xiao Selang soon grew excited. With such powerful combat capabilities as insurance and the opportunity to be freed from RX's Heaven poison, why wouldn't he be delighted?
"Yama Lord, I will imdiately write down all the clues I know, as I previously dared not keep any evidence, fearing I would be silenced, you understand," Xiao Selang hurriedly ingratiated himself with sycophantic words, his expression one of obsequiousness, the only thing missing was a tail wagging behind to please.
Lin Hai nodded, thinking to himself that although Xiao Selang was craven, to be appointed as a director ant he still had a nimble mind.
"Yama Lord, is there anything else that you need to do? Please command ," Xiao Selang eagerly seized the opportunity to curry favor and strengthen their relationship.
"Was it you who had Officer Qi dismissed?" Lin Hai asked.
Xiao Selang was taken aback, and not daring to lie, quickly nodded with a fearful expression and admitted, "It was Young Master Yu who ordered to do so. He said there might be a batch of drugs coming in soon, and Officer Qi, being too upright, plus she seed to be investigating so clues related to RX recently, and has reached a critical mont, so he asked to have her dismissed and investigated, and if necessary, Young Master Yu might not hesitate to have soone take her out."
Upon hearing Xiao Selang's words, Lin Hai suddenly realized.
He had previously killed Zhang Shenxu, found that book of evidence, and handed it to Queen Qi, allowing her to use her position to investigate, never anticipating Queen Qi's investigation would draw Yu Hailin's attention, ultimately leading to the current situation.
Xiao Selang was not stupid; realizing Yama Lord was inquiring about Queen Qi's affairs, he promptly spoke up again, "Yama Lord, I will try to tactfully reinstate Officer Qi, if you see fit."
Lin Hai nodded. This Xiao Selang truly was a good lapdog, worthy of being a director.
"Officer Qi is an upright police officer, I greatly admire her. Director Xiao, please take good care of Officer Qi in the future."
Xiao Selang suddenly realized and quickly flashed a smile, "I understand, so Officer Qi is your... uh, close confidante."
"Director Xiao, it's best not to ask about things you shouldn't know. That way, you may live longer," a hint of lethality flashed in Lin Hai's deep eyes.
Scared, Xiao Selang's face turned pale instantly, he raised his hand and slapped himself, forcing a flattering smile, and quickly nodded, "You are right, Yama Lord, Xiao admits his mistake."
"In three days, I will co to find you, hoping you do not play any clever tricks and avoid being a fence-sitter."
"I understand, please rest assured, Yama Lord," Xiao Selang quickly agreed.
After thinking it over, Xiao Selang added, "Yama Lord, there's a deputy director position recently vacated at the police station, I believe Officer Qi is upright and outstanding, a rare talent. If such a person cannot get promoted, it would be a waste of talent, and the lower ranks might feel disheartened. I wonder whether I should..."
"That's your business, goodbye, Director Xiao."
"I understand, bidding farewell to Yama Lord."
Just as Lin Hai was about to leave, he suddenly rembered sothing else and added, "Recently, the underworld in Huadu might beco sowhat chaotic, Director Xiao. Regarding Bald, Scar, and Yu Tianlin's subordinates, I hope you can cut them so slack."
Xiao Selang was even more shocked internally. Yu Hailin was trying to unify Huadu's underworld, unexpectedly Yama Lord was also involved in this.
"But, Young Master Yu has a sky-high backing, his rule over Huadu's underworld might keep things calm at the top, replacing him with soone else, I fear the top might..."
Lin Hai didn't waste words, casually pulling out the exquisite little notebook given to him by Long Si.
"Hiss—" Xiao Selang instantly sucked in a breath of cold air, staring intently at the small black leather notebook.
"Fla Yellow Soul..." Xiao Selang was beyond words to describe the shock he felt inside.
