Super Strong Little Divine Farmer

Chapter 644: Chapter 645: You are a hero

Lin Chen let a few people into the club and directly opened a private room.

After exchanging a few pleasantries with them, Lin Chen went out to mingle.

When the guests saw that several major figures from the underworld were actually there to support Lin Chen, they looked at Starlight Club with newfound respect.

You have to understand, people who come to such places primarily want a safe environment. If thugs were causing trouble all the time, who would dare to come?

As Lin Chen left the private room, Wei Ling looked at him in astonishment.

”I really didn’t see it coming; you’re quite something, aren’t you? How did you get to know these big shots and have them all come to support you?” Wei Ling exclaimed in surprise.

Lin Chen gave an awkward smile, ”I just met them by chance, I have no idea how they got the news and all came.”

Just as Wei Ling and Lin Chen had breathed a sigh of relief, another group of guests arrived.

These guests were none other than a group of uniformed police officers.

The one leading the team was no other than the detective captain, Chano.

Seeing the smug Chano walking in, Lin Chen’s eyes narrowed; the guy was definitely here to cause trouble.

As expected, as soon as Chano and his team entered, they halted all activities in the club, citing a ”routine inspection.”

In reality, a routine inspection was just a pretext; anyone with clear eyes could see this was to trouble Lin Chen.

At this moment, Pei Lai and a few others also came out from the private room and frowned at the scene.

Pei Lai approached Chano, trying to intercede for Lin Chen, ”Captain Chano, please, give me some face here; Lin Chen is my friend.”

Chano snorted coldly, ”Mr. Pei Lai, I’m sorry, it’s not that I don’t want to give you face, but Lin Chen is currently a person of interest to us. You should be careful associating with him; you might get into trouble.”

Upon hearing Chano’s words, the guests in the club felt a chill. Many of them came here for flirting or entertainment, including even some public officials. If the police were always coming to check, no one could stand it.

Lin Chen snorted coldly and approached Chano, ”Chano, we are operating legally, and today is our grand opening. What do you mean by this?”

Chano sneered, ”Kid, you think just because you offended me once, it’s all settled? Let me tell you, I’ll be coming here often. Your club won’t last.”

Seeing the expressions on the faces of the surrounding guests, Chano was very pleased. This was exactly the effect he wanted; he wanted all the guests to know that even though Lin Chen’s club was watched over by big shots, it wasn’t truly safe.

Just then, police lights flashed at the door, and another police car stopped at the entrance.

At this point, all the guests’ expressions changed. On the first day of its opening, the club faced relentless trouble from the police; clearly, its backing wasn’t very strong.

However, Lin Chen couldn’t help but laugh when he saw who was walking in, because it was none other than Qima.

An elderly man in a suit was also following beside Qima.

While Chano was gloating, his face suddenly changed upon seeing Qima’s unexpected arrival.

Chano was aware of the relationship between Qima and Lin Chen. If it hadn’t been for Lin Chen helping Qima solve a case, he would have been promoted to chief of police by now.

Precisely for that reason, Chano harbored resentment in his heart against Lin Chen and wanted to use this opportunity to create trouble.

Qima and the old man entered the club and were momentarily startled by the room full of police officers. She gave Chano a cold look and said, ”Chano, what are you doing here? Have you solved the two cases I assigned you? Who asked you to investigate the Xingchen Club?”

Chano’s face was ashen as he replied, ”We received a tip that there might be drug transactions inside the club, so I brought my team here.”

Upon hearing Chano’s words, Lin Chen laughed and said to Qima with a look of grievance, ”Director Qima, I must file a complaint. I am a honest businessman. This club was opened to enrich the entertainment life of the local residents, and we operate legally. If team leaders like Chano can come and search our club based on such groundless reports, how are we supposed to run our business? Moreover, this is our opening day. His actions are clearly motivated by personal vendetta.”

After hearing Lin Chen’s complaint, Qima stared coldly at Chano, fully aware of his motives.

Qima snorted coldly, ”From now on, without my order, no one from the Manchester Police Department is allowed to investigate the Xingchen Club.”

Boom!

Upon hearing Qima’s words, the guests present were all stunned.

What did Qima’s statement imply? It meant that the Xingchen Club now had the director as a protective charm. With no one in the underworld daring to provoke it, and the director’s protection in the public sphere, the Xingchen Club had become Manchester’s safest entertainment club.

Chano’s face turned ashen; initially, he had wanted to intimidate Lin Chen, but he had never dreamed that Qima would intervene and disrupt his plans.

However, a chill flashed across his face, ”Director Qima, I want to know what is your relationship with Lin Chen that you would protect him like this? Moreover, as the director, you even came personally to congratulate him on the opening. I will complain about this.”

Chano’s move was extremely insidious. If Qima did not respond well, it could easily provide Chano with leverage to expose her to the press.

Before long, the headlines might declare ’New Director Attends Entertainment Club’s Grand Opening,’ plunging Qima into a vortex of public opinion.

At that moment, the old man by Qima’s side suddenly spoke, ”It was I who instructed Director Qima to bring me to Lin Chen. Are you planning to complain about me as well?”

Chano glanced at the old man, feeling that he looked familiar, and then his face suddenly changed as he remembered, this was no other than Minister Sili of Manchester’s Justice Department.

It was well known that Sili governed T-country’s entire judicial system, and it would only take him minutes to dismiss his own charges.

Chano’s face instantly changed as sweat rolled down his cheeks, ”Minister Sili, how could I dare? I was just reminding Director Qima to be mindful of the impact.”

Sili snorted, ”Impact? I want to broaden the impact. Let more people know about Lin Chen. It was he who helped us capture the demon who murdered children, allowing the children of Manchester to sleep peacefully. He is the pride of Manchester.”

Saying this, Sili approached Lin Chen and extended his hand warmly, ”Mr. Lin Chen, on behalf of the people of Manchester, I thank you.”

Lin Chen smiled, ”These are things I should do.”

Sili attached a medal bestowed by the king onto Lin Chen’s lapel, ”This is the honor you deserve. You are the pride of the Manchester people. I will often visit your club, remember to give me a discount!”

At that moment, all the guests in the club were astounded, even the Minister of Justice proclaimed he would be a frequent patron; who then would dare trouble this establishment lightly?

At that moment, Chano’s face was pale with frustration, having just declared his bold words only to be contradicted immediately.

Even the Minister of Justice was a regular here, coming to cause trouble would be akin to courting death!

At that moment, Sili’s gaze fell on Chano and suddenly he said to Qima, ”The most important thing in the police force is unity. I feel that Chano doesn’t seem fit to continue partnering with you. How about this, I heard the chief detective of Gongcheng just sacrificed his life, let’s transfer Chano there.”

Upon hearing Sili’s words, Chano’s face turned deathly pale.

Gongcheng was known as the poorest and most chaotic place in T-country, and also the place with the highest death rate among police officers, Chano had never imagined that by offending Lin Chen, not only had he failed to become the director, but he was also being assigned to a place no police officer wished to go.
