After Mad Dragon was released from prison, I shocked the world!

"That's too much!"

The chubby director who had been criticized by Lin Li before finally found an opportunity for revenge.

"Mr. Lin! Don't think you can act with impunity just because you have Old Master Li backing you up! This is a society governed by law, not a place for you to run wild!"

"Forcing a female comrade to undergo a body search is an act of thuggery! It's a crime!"

"Old Li, I suggest we immediately throw this madman out and hand him over to the police!"

Other officials echoed the sentiments, and for a time, the private room was filled with voices condemning Lin Li.

Su Lin sat beside her, her palms sweating profusely.

Although she believed Lin Li wouldn't speak without reason, the current situation was far too passive.

Xue Minghui's acting was so good that she completely won everyone's sympathy.

If they can't find anything, Lin Li is probably really going to be in deep trouble today, and even Old Li might not be able to protect him.

"Lin Li..."

Su Lin gave Lin Li a look, signaling him not to act impulsively.

Lin Li smiled, looked at Elder Li, and asked, "Elder Li, what do you say?"

"..."

Li Zhongliang frowned and remained silent.

Emotionally, he didn't believe Xue Minghui would harm him. But rationally, he understood that Lin Li wasn't the kind of person who would make a fuss over nothing.

Of course, the most crucial point is that he cannot express his opinion right now.

"Old Li! I'm not afraid of being searched!"

Just as Mr. Li hesitated, Xue Minghui suddenly shouted loudly.

"Since he's determined to slander me, then I'll let him search me!"

She wiped away her tears, straightened her back, and looked as if she were ready to die.

"But if they find nothing, I want him to kneel down and apologize to me! And get out of here and never show his face in front of you again!"

This move, a strategic retreat, demonstrated her innocence and fortitude while simultaneously pushing Lin Li into a corner.

"good!"

Lin Li agreed without hesitation, "If they don't find anything, I, Lin Li, will accept whatever punishment I may give them. But if they do find anything..."

He sneered, "Then don't blame me for being impolite."

"snort!"

Xue Minghui also snorted coldly, and said with an upright expression, "A straight body casts no crooked shadow!"

At Mr. Li's instruction, the hotel manager could only frantically call over two female waitresses.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, two waiters led Xue Minghui into the lounge inside the private room.

The private room was deathly silent, save for the heavy breathing.

Everyone stared at the door of the lounge, waiting for the result.

Five minutes later.

The door opened.

Xue Minghui walked out, tidying her somewhat disheveled clothes, her face full of arrogance.

Upon seeing her expression, some officials with ulterior motives exchanged glances, preparing to take this opportunity to severely suppress Su Lin.

The two waiters also came out, carrying Xue Minghui's bag and some personal belongings.

"How is it?"

The chubby director asked impatiently.

One of the waiters shook his head and said timidly, "Reporting to the leaders, we searched all of this lady's pockets and her bag, and found nothing except tissues, lipstick, and some personal items..."

Once they received a definite answer, some people started making a fuss.

"I knew it! How could Secretary Xue possibly be hiding drugs!"

"Lin Li! What else do you have to say?!"

"Apologize! Kneel down and apologize!"

Xue Minghui walked up to Lin Li and said in a deep voice, "Lin Li, now that the truth is out, what else do you have to say?"

"Everyone heard the bet we just made. Now, please keep your promise and kneel down to apologize!"

Su Lin's face turned pale; she hadn't expected that they really hadn't found anything.

Could it be that Lin Li really misjudged?

She was about to stand up and plead for Lin Li when she saw Lin Li suddenly smile and walk step by step toward Xue Minghui.

"What...what do you want to do? Are you trying to cheat me?"

Looking into Lin Li's eyes, Xue Minghui felt a sudden surge of fear and instinctively took a step back.

"Playing dirty?"

Lin Li scoffed and said disdainfully, "I never cheat, but this body search isn't over yet."

"What do you mean? The waiter clearly already..."

Before Xue Minghui could finish speaking, Lin Li suddenly grabbed her left wrist!

"Ah! What are you doing! Let go of me!"

Xue Minghui's face changed, and she cried out in terror, "Yan Song! Save me! He's going to kill me!"

Just as Yan Song was about to make a move, Old Li raised his hand to stop him.

"Old Li..."

"Just wait!"

Old Li looked at Lin Li. Things had escalated to this point, and there had to be a result, otherwise both sides would run into problems!

"Lin Li! Let go! You're committing a crime!"

The fat director was still shouting.

Lin Li whirled around and said coldly, "Shut up! One more word and I'll throw you out!"

The chubby director was startled; his face flushed red and then turned pale, but he still didn't dare to say anything more.

"Everyone, look carefully."

Lin Li looked at Xue Minghui and raised her left hand: "Although the waiter searched her body and bag, he missed the most crucial place."

"Where did you miss?"

Someone asked instinctively.

"Her hands."

As Lin Li spoke, he reached out his other hand and pinched the tip of Xue Minghui's left thumb.

Xue Minghui's face turned pale instantly, and she desperately tried to pull her hand back: "No...don't..."

Amidst the astonished and puzzled gazes of the crowd, Lin Li gently rubbed his fingers together and then pulled them down!

blah-

He actually tore off a very thin layer of "skin" that was almost exactly the same as the skin color from Xue Minghui's thumb!

That was a well-made bionic finger sleeve!

After the finger cot was removed, Xue Minghui's original thumb was revealed, which was covered with a layer of white powder!

"This is……"

Everyone stared wide-eyed at the tiny finger cot, feeling a chill run down their spines.

There's actually such a way to poison someone?!

"This is the evidence."

Lin Li held up the finger cot in front of Old Li and said in a deep voice, "It's a specially made bionic finger cot containing highly toxic powder."

"When pouring wine, just press your thumb lightly, and the powder will spray out from the tiny pores of the finger cot and dissolve into the wine."

"Colorless and odorless, it kills without a trace."

He looked at Xue Minghui and said calmly, "Secretary Xue, don't tell me you don't know what this is."

Xue Minghui's face turned deathly pale. She knew she was finished and couldn't utter a word of defense.

Li Zhongliang looked at the finger cot, then at Xue Minghui, his face terribly gloomy.

The person he trusted most was actually trying to kill him!

If it weren't for Lin Li...

Li Zhongliang felt a chill run down his spine and said coldly, "Yan Song! Seize her! I need to know who ordered her!"

"yes!"

Yan Song was also covered in cold sweat, feeling both ashamed and angry.

As a bodyguard, it's a dereliction of duty that he didn't even notice this tactic!

Those officials who had previously criticized Lin Li are now all hanging their heads, wishing they could disappear into a crack in the ground.

Especially the fat director, whose legs were shaking uncontrollably, as if he was afraid that Lin Li would come after him.
