Extreme Almightiest Young Master Chapter 96
But soon, Li Dashan realized he was also flying through the air, and in the last moment of his life, he remembered what his master had once said, "Never commit evil, for there are many people in this world you cannot afford to provoke." Indeed, his master had spoken the truth. Now, he had provoked such a person and paid for it with his life!
As Li Dashan and Li Dahai died, seconds later, everyone else had also fallen to the ground. Lin Feng flicked the dust from his hands and, holding Tingting, leaped out of the courtyard and sat down on a stone.
"Wow, uncle is amazing, he really can fly! Are you a superhero?" Tingting stared at Lin Feng with wide eyes, hardly believing that she had just flown.
"Tingting, what should we do after the bad guys are beaten?" Lin Feng pinched Tingting’s cheek and asked.
"Call the police, uncle!" Tingting obediently answered.
The child’s words reminded Lin Feng that the police still needed to wrap things up. Otherwise, those poor children would have nowhere to go. With that thought, he directly dialed Wang Ming’s number.
"Captain Wang, could you come to Xiao Wang Village in Pingyang District? There’s some trouble here that needs your assistance."
"What? Okay, I’m on my way."
Wang Ming hung up and drove toward the site, feeling by instinct that something big must have happened. Otherwise, it was too unusual to have just dealt with ticket scalpers and now to receive a call from Lin Feng.
Half an hour later, Wang Ming finally arrived at Lin Feng’s location, seeing him sitting on a stone with an extremely adorable little girl in his arms, and he couldn’t figure out what Lin Feng was intending.
"Let’s go in and take a look," Lin Feng pointed at the gate of the courtyard.
Since Lin Feng had said so, Wang Ming didn’t say anything and walked toward the gate. He knew Lin Feng was not one for idle talk and there must be a reason for this.
But when he saw the courtyard full of people lying on the ground, Wang Ming’s heart almost stopped. Heavens... they can’t all be dead, can they? This fear prompted Wang Ming to quickly check them and, sure enough, he found none of them alive. Could all of these people have been killed by Lin Feng?
Having just dealt with Huang Niu’s case, he knew of Lin Feng’s extraordinary abilities. But these were human lives! Killing for any reason is a crime, so how could you casually kill people? Even police officers can’t kill criminals, let alone you, an ordinary person without law enforcement authority! You killed these people and then called me to help, what are you implying?
Driven by professional habits, Wang Ming returned to the vicinity of the corpses to examine the scene and look for the cause of death.
"Li Dashan!"
What was he doing here? This national A-level fugitive had been at large for many years, causing bloodshed wherever he went. Wang Ming had once personally pursued him, but he was too formidable. Even with military police assistance and a mountain manhunt, they couldn’t capture him, and several people died in the process. Wang Ming had lost a good brother trying to catch him. Within the public security system, he was regarded as a highly dangerous individual. And now, he was dead here. Could Lin Feng have done all this?
With these thoughts, Wang Ming continued to search the pile of bodies for new clues. But the more he searched, the more shocked he became. Besides the big catch Li Dashan, there was his brother Li Dahai, another national A-level fugitive, and several other child traffickers on the wanted list—none as formidable as the Li brothers, but all capable of terrorizing a whole region on their own, each one a desperate criminal. If it hadn’t been for Lin Feng’s intervention, capturing these men could have taken a tremendous effort and possibly cost more lives. Lin Feng had done a great service!
Looking at the scene, not one was a good person, Wang Ming couldn’t understand what could bring this group of people together. Were they planning a major crime?
But just then, a low whining cry drew Wang Ming’s attention to the edge of an old factory building. Peering through the crack in the door, he witnessed a scene beyond his worst nightmares—a group of children locked up, many obviously disabled, with limbs bent at unnatural angles, others with large burn scars on their faces and bodies...
It was only at that moment that Wang Ming finally understood why Lin Feng had done what he did—all for these children. Had it been him, he would have done the same.
No wonder so many children had gone missing in Tianhai City over the past year; they had all ended up here. How could they be so cruel as to harm such small children? These damned monsters had gotten off easy with such deaths. As he circled around and saw the children who should have been healthy, Wang Ming fought the urge to shoot the dead criminals again, then walked out to face Lin Feng and took a deep drag of his cigarette.
"Did you kill all these people?" Wang Ming took a harsh puff from his cigarette, thinking about how to handle the situation. No matter how much he personally approved of Lin Feng’s actions, after all, these were more than 20 human lives.
"Yes, such scum are not worth keeping alive," Lin Feng said emotionlessly to Wang Ming.
"Should these scumbags be killed? Seeing those kids just now, I almost fired a couple more shots at these bastards. Even executing them a hundred times wouldn’t be excessive. It’s fine for us to shoot them, but you can’t. That makes you a criminal! If they were just injured like those scalpers, I could help you cover up, but now it’s over twenty lives..." Wang Ming shouted at Lin Feng, a bit resentful that Lin Feng didn’t know how to protect himself. There were so many ways to deal with this scum; why did you have to brazenly kill them all? Now you’ve stirred up a huge mess!
"I asked you to come because I want you to find a place for these kids. I can’t take care of them, and I have no way to do it," Lin Feng told Wang Ming his reason for seeking him out.
Wang Ming’s heart trembled again upon hearing Lin Feng’s words. The children! Those poor children! If things had gone through normal procedures, not all of these criminals would have been dealt with, and some would still pose a threat to society. But Lin Feng eliminated them all at once, effectively eradicating the child trafficking issue and really doing a great service for the people.
But that was over twenty lives! No matter what, Lin Feng had no right to kill them. This was an outright crime. Lin Feng, what am I supposed to do? Moreover, I am a police officer. Isn’t this forcing me into an impossible situation?
To arrest or not to arrest, to let go or not to let go, these conflicting thoughts tangled in Wang Ming’s mind.
One cigarette followed another...
Why did I become a police officer, if not to do more for the people? Lin Feng dared to kill these scum for the sake of the children, and here I am fretting over all this nonsense. Is it just about taking the fall? If it comes to it, I’ll just take off this uniform. No matter what, I have to save Lin Feng!
Thinking this, Wang Ming suddenly stood up, rushed into the yard, and fired several shots at the corpses.
Lin Feng was slightly stunned by the sound of Wang Ming’s gunfire, but soon he understood what Wang Ming intended.
"You need to leave now, and don’t let anyone see you. I’ll handle things here," Wang Ming finally decided to let Lin Feng go and take the blame himself.
"What will you do after I leave?" Lin Feng asked, holding Tingting and fully aware of how serious today’s situation was.
"You saw what happened. I’m still a police officer; I can say that in attempting to save the kids, I had no choice but to kill them. There are no witnesses to the contrary. But you, you need to leave quickly, don’t let anyone see you. Leave the kids to me, you can rest easy," Wang Ming explained, pushing Lin Feng and the others to leave quickly. The recent gunshots had surely alerted others, and being seen would compromise his efforts.
Yet could things really be that simple? Wang Ming sighed bitterly within. Over twenty lives—self-defense or not, it was excessive. The best-case scenario might be just taking off this uniform; otherwise... enough, don’t think too much about it. If I can help Lin Feng save so many children, that’s enough!
Lin Feng knew that Wang Ming’s explanations were just to ease his mind, and he also understood the urgency in Wang Ming’s pushing. People would be arriving soon; if he didn’t leave, all of Wang Ming’s efforts would be in vain. With no choice, he had to leave with Tingting. He couldn’t stay and cause more trouble for Wang Ming.
Watching Lin Feng disappear from his view, Wang Ming heaved a sigh and picked up the phone to dial the police station’s number.
"Director Fan, there’s been a major incident in Xiao Wang Village, Pingyang District. Bring more officers and vehicles, and hurry over."
Fan Ming knew Wang Ming’s straightforward style—he never exaggerated the truth. So, when Wang Ming reported a significant case, it must be serious. He immediately mobilized the police force to rush over.
Wang Ming didn’t pay attention to the voice inside; he hung up and ran into the factory to rescue the captive disabled children. As he witnessed their state, his heart ached, and he grew even more resentful toward the scum. How could they bring themselves to hurt such small children? Lin Feng did right by killing them; such bastards deserved to be wiped out. If it were up to him, he would have had to enforce the law and arrest them. In a way, Lin Feng’s extreme method of handling them was much better than the law for these people.
Thirty-one children, including twenty-seven disabled and four who were very healthy and beautiful. Those beasts! How many families must have been torn apart because of this!
Wang Ming comforted the thirty-one children, hoping their ordeal wouldn’t leave a lasting shadow, although he knew it was an effort in vain. That was all he could do...
As for the bodies on the ground, he couldn’t care less about them.
After a long while, the sound of police sirens broke the silence of Xiao Wang Village.
"Old Wang, what sort of major incident is this? I’ve brought everyone over..." Sub-bureau Chief Fan Ming, having dealt with Lin Feng at the police station previously, knew full well Lin Feng’s capabilities, and he was all too aware of the relationship between Wang Ming, Lin Feng, and Zhou Yang. But as he saw the scene of corpses strewn across the yard, he was completely stunned. Anyone who stumbled upon such a bloody spectacle would be overwhelmed!
Heaven! What had Wang Ming done? This was lethal, over twenty human lives that I couldn’t take the blame for. This is not something I can handle...
