Chapter 194 Evidence Photos Obtained
Pushing open the door, the familiar aroma of food filled her nostrils. It was the dinner her mother had left for her, simple yet filled with love. Lynn slipped on her slippers and slowly walked into the living room. Her father, George, was sitting on the sofa reading the newspaper, while her sister, Gwen, was at her desk, poring over her studies for an upcoming exam. Hearing the noise, they both looked up, their eyes filled with concern for Lynn.

"Lynn, you're back." George put down the newspaper, a hint of subtle worry in his voice. "How was work today?"

Lin En gave a wry smile and didn't answer directly. Instead, he slowly walked to the sofa and sat down, his head lowered and his fists clenched, as if he was trying to suppress his inner emotions. Seeing this, Gwen immediately put down the pen in her hand, walked over and sat next to Lin En, and patted his shoulder gently.

"Brother, what's wrong? Did you encounter something unhappy at work?" Gwen's voice was gentle and delicate, like a warm current, trying to dispel the haze in Lin En's heart.

Lin En took a deep breath and looked up at his father and sister, his eyes flashing with mixed emotions. "I... I've been suspended."

As soon as the words fell, the whole room seemed to fall into silence, only the occasional sound of wind coming from outside the window broke the silence. George and Gwen were stunned, obviously not expecting such news.

"What?!" George stood up suddenly, his eyes full of shock and confusion. "Why is this happening? Haven't you always been doing well?"

Lin En shook her head, her smile bitterly revealing a hint of helplessness. "It was Hulk... He turned against me and Hans, and took us to court. Under pressure, Sheriff Duke had no choice but to temporarily suspend us."

Gwen heard this, and a trace of anger flashed in her eyes: "That Hulk is really too much! How could he do this!"

George also slowly sat down, his brow furrowed, as if trying to digest this information. After a moment, he spoke, his voice calm and firm, "Lynn, I know this is a huge blow to you. But you must remember that justice may be late, but it will never be absent. You have always been a responsible and just police officer. Your mother, Gwen, and I are all convinced of this."

Hearing this, Lin En felt a surge of warmth in his heart. He looked at his father, his eyes gleaming with gratitude. "Dad, thank you. I know this is a very difficult matter, but I won't give up. I must find evidence to prove my innocence and make that bastard Hulk pay the price he deserves."

Gwen also held Lin's hand tightly, with a firm light in her eyes: "Brother, I believe in you! You have always been my role model. No matter what happens, I will stand by you and support you!"

Lin En felt the warmth and support of his family, and the haze in his heart seemed to dissipate a little. He knew he wasn't fighting alone; he had family and those who believed in and supported him. This strength would be his driving force to keep moving forward.

However, things did not go as planned. Hulk seemed to have anticipated Lynn's actions and all clues were cleverly covered up or destroyed. Lynn fell into an unprecedented dilemma and began to doubt whether he could really find evidence to prove his innocence.

That evening, Lynn returned home, her face etched with exhaustion and frustration. George and Gwen saw it, and their hearts ached. They knew Lynn needed more than comfort; she needed encouragement and support.

"Lynn, don't lose heart." George patted Lynn's shoulder. "We know this road is difficult, but you have to believe that as long as you persevere, there will always be a bright future."

Gwen also came over and hugged Lin En tightly: "Brother, I always believe in you. You are the best and you will definitely be able to overcome this difficulty!"

Lin En felt the warmth of his family, and an inexplicable strength surged within him. He knew he couldn't just give up. For his family and for the justice he held in his heart, he had to keep going.

The hustle and bustle of the city gradually faded behind him as Hans's car slowly drove onto a quiet road. Tall trees on either side of the road cast mottled shadows, and the air was filled with a faint earthy scent, as if foreshadowing the secrets that were about to be revealed.

Hans stopped the car and turned to look at Lynn in the passenger seat: "Duke is here again, this time he went to the villa in the suburbs."

Lin En frowned slightly, a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes: "Here he comes again? This time we have to follow him and see what he is up to."

The two men got out of the car and cautiously followed Duke. Duke's figure was looming among the shadows of the trees. He walked hurriedly, as if he was in a hurry to complete a task. Lynn and Hans didn't dare to follow too closely, for fear of alerting the enemy.

"Why do you think he came this time?" Hans asked in a low voice.

"I'm not sure, but it's definitely related to the previous case," Lin En replied. "We have to be careful not to be discovered by him."

The two followed Duke through a forest and arrived at a luxurious villa. The villa was surrounded by high walls covered in vines, giving it a mysterious and secluded feel. Duke looked around, making sure no one was following him, before cautiously ringing the doorbell.

A moment later, a middle-aged man in a suit emerged from the villa. He glanced around cautiously, then shook hands with Duke. Lynn and Hans, hiding in the bushes in the distance, watched the two men's every move through binoculars.

"Is that man a municipal official?" Hans asked.

"Yes, that's him." Lynn replied, "It seems Duke is here to trade with him this time."

The two smiled at each other, secretly glad that their pursuit had paid off. They quietly approached the villa, trying to take a photo of Duke and the city officials. However, just as they were about to get close, something unexpected happened.

A stray dog ​​suddenly darted out, barking incessantly at them. Linn and Hans were startled, fearing they would be discovered by the people in the villa. They hurriedly hid in the bushes, their hearts racing as they nervously watched the villa for any movement.

Fortunately, the people in the villa didn't seem to notice anything unusual outside. After barking for a while, the stray dog ​​gradually quieted down. Lin En and Hans breathed a sigh of relief and approached the villa cautiously again.

This time, they were more cautious. They crawled on their hands and knees, fearing to alert the enemy again. Finally, they reached a suitable position, where they could clearly see Duke and the city officials' every move.

The two men pulled out their cameras and quickly clicked away. Photo after photo captured the cash transactions between Duke and the city officials. Smug smiles appeared on their faces, as if they had already seen the dawn of victory.

However, just as they were about to evacuate, another unexpected incident occurred. Duke suddenly turned back and looked in their direction, a hint of alarm flashing in his eyes. Lin En and Hans were startled, secretly thinking that this was not good. They knew that if they were discovered, the consequences would be disastrous.

Duke didn't seem to know their exact location, but he had sensed someone was following him. He quickly concluded the transaction and turned to chase after Lynn and Hans.

Seeing this, Lynn and Hans hurriedly evacuated. They shuttled through the woods, trying to shake off Duke's pursuit. However, Duke seemed to know their whereabouts very well and followed them closely.

A thrilling chase unfolds in the woods. Lynn and Hans run as fast as they can, fearing Duke will catch up. Their heartbeats echo through the woods, as if providing an accompaniment to the chase.

Finally, after a fierce chase, Lynn and Hans succeeded in getting rid of Duke. They hid in a secluded corner, panting, and secretly rejoicing that they had escaped danger.

"It was so dangerous. He almost found me." Hans sighed.

"Yeah, it was a near-death experience this time," Lin En sighed. "But at least we got some photos of their transaction, so that's a gain."

The two men smiled at each other, feeling a sense of accomplishment. They knew that this pursuit, while incredibly dangerous, had brought them one step closer to the truth. They decided to hand over the photos to the police, providing strong evidence to expose the crimes of Duke and the city officials.

On the way back to the city, Linn and Hans were in a particularly relaxed mood. They looked out the window at the scenery, their hearts filled with anticipation for the future.

As the night deepened, Lynn stood in front of Chief Duke's office and took a deep breath. In his hands, he clutched a stack of photos. They were the evidence he and Hans had taken, risking their lives, of Hulk's bribery. This time, they had finally caught the corrupt official.

Lynn knocked on the door and heard Duke's voice from inside: "Come in."

He pushed the door open and walked in. Duke was sitting at his desk, his brow furrowed, as if he was dealing with some difficult problem. When he saw Lin En come in, he raised his head with a questioning look in his eyes.

"Sir, I have something important to report," Lynn said, handing the photos to Duke. Duke took them suspiciously, flipping through them one by one. His expression grew increasingly serious as he flipped through the photos. The photos clearly documented Hulk's cash transactions with a mysterious figure; the evidence was irrefutable.

"Where did these photos come from?" Duke asked in a deep voice.

"Hans and I took these photos," Lynn replied. "We've been following Hulk for a while and finally captured these evidences."

Duke raised his head and looked at Lin En deeply: "You did a good job. This evidence is very important to us."

At this moment, the office door was suddenly pushed open, and Hulk walked in aggressively. He saw the photo in Duke's hand at a glance, and his face turned pale instantly.

"Captain Duke, what do you mean?" Hulk asked with forced calmness.

Duke looked at him coldly: "These photos are yours, right? Hulk, do you have anything else to explain?"

Hulk's eyes widened. He turned to look at Lin En, a trace of resentment flashing in his eyes: "It's you! How dare you secretly take pictures of me!"

Lin En met his gaze fearlessly. "We were just doing what we had to do. The fact that you accepted bribes has been exposed. What else is there to say now?"

Hulk rushed towards Lynn in a rage, trying to snatch the photo from his hand, but Duke stood up in time and blocked his way.

"Enough! Hulk, do you think you can escape the punishment of the law?" Duke said sternly, "These photos are enough to convict you!"

Hulk slumped to the ground, his face ashen. He knew he was truly finished this time. Lynn and Hans stood by, quietly awaiting the next step.

Duke picked up the phone and dialed a number: "Hello, is this the police station? I have a bribery case that needs your help."

Soon, the police arrived at the scene. They took Hulk away and thanked Lynn and Hans. Duke watched them leave and sighed deeply.

"You did a great job this time." Duke turned to Lynn and Hans and said, "I'll take credit for you."

Lynn and Hans smiled at each other, knowing that their adventure had finally paid off. Not only had they exposed Hulk's crimes, but they had also regained the trust of their superiors.

However, the story doesn't end there. Hulk's bribery case causes a huge uproar in the police department, implicating more high-ranking officials. The entire city is in turmoil, and Lynn and Hans are drawn deeper into the vortex because of this incident.

"You're celebrities now," Duke said with a smile, looking at the two people in front of him. "However, this also means that you will face more dangers and challenges."

Lynn and Hans nodded fearlessly. "We're not afraid. As long as it's for justice, we're willing to do anything."

Duke looked at them deeply, then said solemnly, "Okay, then I will entrust more tasks to you. I hope you can continue to bring light and hope to this city."

The two smiled at each other, then held each other's hands tightly.

The afterglow of the setting sun filtered through the gaps in the curtains, scattering dappled light into Lynn's living room, gilding this cozy little home with a golden glow. Lynn pushed open the door, weary from the day's work, only to find her father, George, sitting upright with a mysterious smile on his face, as if something good was about to happen.

"Lynn, you're back." George's voice was filled with excitement that was hard to conceal. "I have good news to tell you today."

Lin En was slightly stunned and looked at his father curiously: "What good news? Is my mother coming back?" His mother was away from home all year round due to work, and the family rarely got together, so this was the first thing Lin En thought of.

George smiled and shook his head, his eyes gleaming with a different light: "No, it's about your lifelong event."

"The most important event of your life?" Lin En was a little confused for a moment and stared at his father with wide eyes.

"Yes, I found a girlfriend for you." George's words were full of pride, as if he had accomplished an important task.

"What?!" Lin En exclaimed in surprise. He hadn't expected his father to suddenly bring up this topic. He subconsciously wanted to refuse, but looking at his father's expectant eyes, he couldn't bear it.

At this time, my sister Gwen poked her head out of the room and approached with a gossipy look on her face: "Brother, is this true? Dad really wants to introduce you to a girlfriend? Tell me, what kind of girl is it?"

Lin En looked at Gwen helplessly. This sister always made trouble at the critical moment. "Why are you joining in the fun? Go do your homework." He tried to hide his embarrassment with a dignified tone.

However, Gwen didn't buy it. Instead, she became even more excited: "Hey, brother, don't be embarrassed. You're so old, and still single. My dad is doing this for your own good. Tell me, what kind of girl is she?"

George also echoed, "Yeah, Lin En, you're not a child anymore, it's time to think about your personal life. This girl is the daughter of an old friend of mine, Lily. She's beautiful and has a good personality. I think she's a good match for you."

Lin En was somewhat shaken by the father and daughter's unanimous words, but he still felt a little resistant in his heart: "Dad, I am fully focused on work now, so how can I have time for a relationship?"

"Work is important, but life can't be neglected either," George said earnestly. "Besides, you haven't even met the person, so how do you know they're not suitable? At least, you have to give them a chance, and give yourself a chance, too."

Gwen also cheered on the side: "Yeah, yeah, brother, just go and meet her. What if you two are really a good match? Don't blame me for not warning you then, because if you miss this opportunity, you'll never get it again!"

After repeated persuasion from the father and daughter, Lin En finally compromised: "Okay, I'll meet you. But let's make it clear first, it's just a meeting and a chat, nothing else."

George and Gwen smiled at each other, as if they had already seen the scene of Lynn and Lily happily holding hands. "Okay, okay, let's meet and chat." George quickly responded, "Then I'll call her and arrange a time for you to meet."

The setting sun poured down like molten gold, framing the city's outlines in a gentle and romantic light. Lin En stood at the entrance of the café, clutching a carefully selected bouquet of flowers, feeling a mixture of trepidation and anticipation. Today was his and Lily's first official date, an occasion he had initially assumed was simply a necessary circumstance due to family pressure, but it unexpectedly filled him with an unprecedented sense of nervousness and excitement.

Lily walked over with light steps, her light blue dress swaying gently in the breeze, like the freshest scenery in summer. When she saw the flowers in Lin's hand, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, and then she smiled brightly: "Lin, you are so kind, you specially prepared flowers."

Lin En scratched his head a little embarrassedly and handed her the flowers: "Well, I think the first date should have some sense of ceremony."

Lily took the flower and smelled it. The faint fragrance seemed to float into her heart, making her smile even sweeter. "So what are our plans next?"

Lin En had already planned the itinerary in her mind, but at this moment she deliberately kept it a secret: "Follow me and you'll find out. It's guaranteed to be a surprise."

The two walked side by side on the bustling streets, occasionally smiling at each other, and the air was filled with a subtle sweetness. Lin En took Lily to an art gallery hidden deep in the alley, where a photography exhibition about urban memory was being held.
