Chapter 193 Lin En Receives Help
Hearing this, Lynn and Hans couldn't help but look at each other. They hadn't expected Hulk to be so perceptive as to be able to sense their presence. Now that things had come to this, they knew there was no point in hiding it any longer.

Lynn put down the champagne in her hand and looked Hulk in the eye: "Since you have already discovered it, we might as well tell you frankly. We are indeed monitoring you because someone reported you for taking bribes."

Hulk didn't show any surprise when he heard this. He smiled faintly, as if he had expected all this. "I see. So, have you found any evidence?"

Lynn and Hans were silent for a moment. They hadn't found any conclusive evidence, and that was their most pressing problem. However, facing Hulk's questioning, they couldn't easily admit their failure.

"We are investigating," Hans finally said. "I believe we will find evidence one day."

Hulk shook his head, with a hint of disdain in his tone: "You are too naive. Do you think you can find evidence of my guilt like this? Let me tell you, everything you do is in vain." After that, he turned around and prepared to leave.

As night fell, the city's neon lights flickered in the rain, casting a mysterious veil over the bustling metropolis. Lynn and Hans sat in a dimly lit office, their computer screen displaying a complex map marked with red dots, marking the movements of their recent target: the Hulk.

"Look, Hulk goes to this villa in the suburbs every few days." Lin En pointed to a certain spot on the screen, frowning. "But the strange thing is, he doesn't stay there for long each time and comes back soon."

Hans narrowed his eyes and studied the map carefully. "This villa is quite remote, and there are no special facilities around it. What on earth is Hulk doing there?"

"We have to go check it out ourselves." Lin En stood up and said firmly, "Maybe there are some unspeakable secrets hidden there."

Hans nodded, and the two quickly packed up their gear and drove to the mysterious villa. In the night, the villa seemed exceptionally quiet, with only the occasional sound of the wind breaking the surrounding tranquility.

The two approached the villa cautiously. Lin En said softly, "Let's split up. You go to the left and I'll go to the right. If you find anything, contact us immediately using the intercom."

Hans nodded, and the two of them sneaked into the two sides of the villa. Lin En quietly walked along the villa wall and soon found an unlocked back door. He gently pushed the door open and tiptoed in.

The villa's interior was luxuriously decorated, but an inexplicable sense of oppression permeated the air. Lin En walked along the corridor when he suddenly heard a subtle noise. He immediately hid in a nearby closet, holding his breath and quietly observing the movements outside.

A figure walked down the stairs. It was Hulk. He was wearing a black windbreaker and walked hurriedly towards the living room. Lin En's heart tightened. Could it be that Hulk discovered something?
However, Hulk didn't seem to notice Lynn's presence. He walked to a corner of the living room, squatted down, and began to rummage around. Lynn took the opportunity to quietly approach and saw Hulk take out a heavy box from under the floor.

Hulk opened the box, revealing stacks of brand-new cash. Lin En was startled; the money clearly came from an unknown source. He immediately pulled out his phone and secretly took photos as evidence.

At this moment, Hulk seemed to notice something. He turned around suddenly and met Lin En's eyes. Lin En's heart trembled, but he quickly calmed down. He looked at Hulk coldly and said, "Hulk, you didn't expect to meet me here, did you?"

Hulk's expression instantly turned gloomy: "Lynn, how dare you follow me? Do you know what you are doing?"

Lin En sneered, "Of course I know. Where did you get all this money from? Is it related to your illegal activities?"

Hulk's eyes flickered, but he quickly regained his composure: "What nonsense are you talking about? This money is my own savings and has nothing to do with you."

"Savings?" Lin En sneered. "You would hide your savings in a place like this? Hulk, stop pretending. We all know what you're doing behind the scenes."

Hulk's face turned ferocious: "Lynn, don't force me. I tell you, these things are not your business. If you know what's good for you, leave here quickly, otherwise..."

"What else?" Lynn met Hulk's gaze fearlessly. "Do you think you can threaten me? I'm telling you, the police are involved. Your end is not far away."

Hulk's eyes flashed with fear when he heard this, but he quickly regained his composure. "Lynn, do you think I'm bluffing? I'm telling you, there's no way the police even know about this place. You've come to me on your own, so don't even think about leaving."

After saying that, Hulk suddenly pulled out a pistol from his pocket and pointed it at Lin En. Lin En's heart tightened, but he did not retreat. He stared closely into Hulk's eyes, trying to find an opportunity to break through.

At this moment, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps outside the door. Hulk's face changed and he immediately turned and walked towards the door. Lin En took the opportunity to pounce on him and wrestled with Hulk.

During the struggle between the two, gunshots were heard, but fortunately no one was hit. Lynn took the opportunity to grab the pistol from Hulk's hand and pinned him to the ground.

At this moment, the door was pushed open and a group of police rushed in. When they saw the scene in front of them, they immediately controlled Hulk and Lynn.

"Mr. Lin, what's going on?" The policeman in charge knew Lin and asked in confusion.

Lynn took a breath and explained, "We suspected Hulk was involved in a series of illegal activities, so we tracked him here. Sure enough, we found this unexplained cash."

Upon hearing this, the police immediately searched the villa and soon found more evidence to prove Hulk's crime.

However, just when Lynn thought everything was about to be revealed, the police suddenly took him and Hans away.

"What are you doing?" Lynn asked in astonishment.

The police officer looked at him coldly and said, "You broke into a private residence and are suspected of theft. Now, you must come back to the police station with us."

Lynn and Hans looked at each other, their hearts filled with helplessness and anger. They had come here to expose Hulk's crimes, but now they were being arrested as thieves.

At the police station, Lynn and Hans were taken to interrogation rooms separately. They tried to explain their innocence to the police, but the police did not seem to believe them.

"Do you think we're bluffing?" the interrogating police officer said coldly. "We've already investigated thoroughly. You both have criminal records. This time, you broke into a house and found a large amount of cash. What else do you have to say?"

Lin En's heart sank. He knew that his past had indeed left a bad impression on the police. But this time, they were really fighting for justice!
"Mr. Policeman, I beg you to give us a chance." Lynn said earnestly, "We are really here to expose Hulk's crimes. The cash is evidence. We can help you bring Hulk to justice."

The police officer looked at Lin En, a hint of hesitation flashing in his eyes. But he quickly shook his head and said, "Mr. Lin En, I understand how you feel. But your actions have violated the law, and we must act in accordance with the law."

Lynn and Hans were filled with despair, knowing that if they could not clear their name this time, their future would be completely ruined.

The night was as dark as ink, and the hustle and bustle of the city gradually quieted, leaving only the lonely flicker of streetlights. Lynn and Hans sat in the police station's lounge, their faces gloomy. They had never imagined that their righteous act of exposing Hulk's crimes would now put them in an unprecedented predicament.

"Hulk, that bastard, actually bit me back!" Hans pounded the table angrily, his eyes gleaming with resentment. Lynn frowned, remaining silent. He knew full well that things were far more complicated than they had imagined. Hulk not only possessed a powerful background, but also a cunning set of tactics. This time, he had clearly come prepared.

"What should we do?" Hans looked at Lin En anxiously, hoping he could give an answer.

Lin En took a deep breath and said slowly, "We can't just sit there and wait for death. We must find more evidence to prove our innocence."

However, at this moment, the door of the lounge was suddenly pushed open, and Sheriff Duke walked in. His face was solemn, and his eyes revealed a hint of helplessness.

"Lynn, Hans, I've heard about your situation." Duke's voice was deep and powerful. "There's a lot of pressure from public opinion right now. I have to give an explanation for this matter."

Lynn and Hans looked at each other, both knowing what was going to happen next.

"Sheriff Duke, we are innocent." Lynn tried to explain, "We are only trying to expose Hulk's crimes..."

"I understand your original intention," Duke interrupted Linn. "But the current situation is that Hulk has filed a lawsuit, accusing you of breaking into a private residence and stealing property. Public opinion is very unfavorable to us."

Hans clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, saying, "He's making a false accusation! We never did those things!"

Duke sighed and shook his head helplessly. "I understand how you feel, but we have to face reality now. For the reputation of the police station and your future, I can only temporarily suspend your positions."

Lynn and Hans felt a pang of pain in their hearts when they heard this. They knew that this meant all their efforts might be wasted. But they also understood that Sheriff Duke had made this decision out of helplessness.

The night was as dark as ink, the deep sky dotted with stars. Moonlight filtered through the sparse clouds, casting a shadow on the slightly shabby little cottage of Lin En's family. Inside, the lights were dim. Lin En sat at a worn wooden table, clutching a crumpled piece of paper, a record of the Hulk's movements that he had repeatedly read and studied. His eyes held a mixture of fatigue and unyielding determination.

Just then, a sudden, forceful knock on the door broke the stillness of the night. Lin En's heart tightened. Who would come at this hour? He slowly stood up and walked towards the door. As soon as his hand touched the doorknob, the door was flung open, and the tall, shadowy figure of Hulk appeared before him.

"Lynn, long time no see." Hulk sneered, his voice containing a hint of provocation and complacency.

Lin En frowned and looked at Hulk coldly: "What are you doing here? There is nothing more to talk about between us."

Hulk, however, didn't care. He walked into the house and looked around, as if assessing the place's value. "Lynn, look at you now, living in this shabby place, leading an ordinary life. Where's that dream of justice you once had? Has it been worn away by reality?"

Lin En was furious when he heard this, but he suppressed his anger. He knew that Hulk must have a purpose for this trip, and he couldn't be easily angered. "Hulk, you didn't come here just to laugh at me, did you? If you have something to say, just say it directly, don't beat around the bush."

Hulk chuckled, walked up to Lin En, and stared into his eyes closely. "Lin En, did you ever think you could investigate me? That you could expose my crimes? That was so naive. You are just an ordinary person now. You can no longer investigate me. You know what? The police have intervened, but what can they catch me? I didn't leave any evidence. They can't do anything to me."

Lin En clenched his fists tightly, his nails almost digging into his palms, but he remained calm: "Hulk, don't be too proud. The net of heaven is vast and nothing can escape it. The bad things you have done will be exposed one day."

Hulk laughed even more arrogantly: "Lynn, do you think I'm still bluffing? Let me tell you, the police are involved, but what can they catch me? I have an expert behind me, and all the evidence has been cleaned up. You, and those self-righteous police, can't do anything to me."

Lin En was shocked. He hadn't expected Hulk to be so arrogant, even daring to show off in his own home. But he also understood that if Hulk dared to do this, he must be confident. He had to find a way to find Hulk's flaws and expose his crimes.

"Hulk, don't go too far." Lin En said coldly, "Do you think I'm bluffing here? I'm telling you, the police are involved, and your doom is not far away."

Hulk waved his hand nonchalantly. "Lynn, do you think I was scared? I'm telling you, even if the police are involved, what can they do about me? I didn't do anything, so why would they arrest me? But you, Lin, you're just an ordinary person now. You can't investigate me anymore. Just live your ordinary life and don't try to provoke me again."

After saying that, Hulk turned around and was about to leave. But Lin En suddenly called him: "Hulk, wait a moment."

Hulk stopped, turned around, and looked at Lin En provocatively: "What? Do you have anything else to do?"

Lin En took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. "Hulk, I know you have someone supporting you, and I know you've done a lot of bad things. But I want to tell you that justice may be late, but it will never be absent. The bad things you've done will one day be exposed to the sun. By then, you won't be able to escape even if you want to."

Hulk's face changed slightly when he heard this, but he quickly regained his composure. "Lynn, do you think I'm the kind of person who would be scared by a few words? I'm telling you, I'm not afraid of anything. You, and those police officers, can't do anything to me."

With that, Hulk strode out of Lynn's house. Lynn stood at the door, watching Hulk's retreating figure, his heart filled with mixed emotions. He knew he was at a disadvantage, but he also understood that justice would triumph over evil. He had to find a way to exploit Hulk's weakness and expose his crimes.

Lin En fell into an unprecedented predicament. He knew he couldn't just give up, but he couldn't find a way out. Just then, an unexpected phone call broke the deadlock.

"Lynn, this is Sheriff Duke." A familiar voice came from the other end of the line, "I heard that you have been investigating the Hulk case recently. I want to tell you that the police have also been involved, but we have encountered great difficulties. The people behind the Hulk are very powerful, and they have been interfering with our investigation. We need your help."

Hearing this, Lin En felt a surge of excitement. He finally saw hope. "Sheriff Duke, I'm willing to help. But I'm also facing a huge difficulty right now. All the clues have been covered up by Hulk."

Sheriff Duke was silent for a moment before saying, "Lynn, I know this is difficult. But we must persevere. I'll send someone to pick you up, and we'll meet to discuss this in detail."

After hanging up the phone, Lin En's heart was filled with anticipation. He knew he was no longer alone. The police had intervened, and they were fighting alongside him. This time, they were determined to bring Hulk to justice.

Soon after, someone sent by Sheriff Duke picked up Lynn. They returned to the police station and began a tense and heated discussion. Lynn told the police everything he had learned from his investigation, including Hulk's movements, the places he frequented, and any crimes he might have hidden.

The police also shared their findings with Lynn. It turned out that Hulk was indeed backed by a powerful criminal group. This group was involved in numerous illegal activities, including smuggling, drug trafficking, and money laundering. Hulk was a key member of this group.

"Lynn, we now have some information about Hulk's crimes," Sheriff Duke said seriously, "but we still need more evidence to fully expose him. Are you willing to continue to assist us?"

Lynn nodded without hesitation: "I am willing. As long as I can expose Hulk's crimes, I will do anything."

The night was as dark as ink. The streetlights lining the streets cast a dim yet warm glow, guiding those returning home. Lin En trudged through the familiar alleyway, finally stopping before the slightly worn wooden door. This was his home, a place filled with warmth and memories, yet at that moment, he felt an unprecedented sense of confusion and frustration.
