Beauty Chairwoman’s Bodyguard Expert

36: Chapter 35: Collecting Debts 36: Chapter 35: Collecting Debts Along the way, Lin Qianru’s fair face remained flushed, impossible to fade.

Lu Tianxing gave a faint smile, not teasing Lin Qianru, but instead opened the car window, eagerly examining the beauties on the street and continuously admiring them.

The quality of beauties in Modu was indeed high, both local and foreign, each dressed in fashionable and provocative styles, with curvy figures and long, white legs.

They were enough to keep one entertained for half a year, even if not for a whole year.

The red BMW wove through the traffic, heading into the distance.

Meanwhile, at the Modu Police Department.

Xue Bing, who had been kissed on the lips by Lu Tianxing earlier, stood respectfully in place with a solemn expression.

In front of her, a man in his thirties with a square face sat there; he was Ye Futu, the Chief of the Modu Police Department, his gaze equally grave and serious, exuding a subtle oppressive aura.

“Chief, this morning we received a report from the public about a burnt car in the suburbs.

We immediately dispatched officers to investigate, but it was already too late.

The entire car had been burned down to its frame.

Additionally, we found six charred bodies inside.”

Xue Bing spoke calmly, “Chief, I suggest we immediately establish a special investigation team to thoroughly probe this matter.

Six deaths, this is the greatest challenge to our police department.”

“Was it suicide or murder?” Ye Futu lit a cigarette for himself and started speaking slowly.

“It was not suicide.

According to forensic analysis, these six individuals were murdered before being stuffed into the car.

The murderer’s methods were extremely brutal—the victims were either killed by exploding chests or crushed windpipes.

One of them even had their chest cavity crushed by a foot.

Chief, I suspect this case involves an Ancient Martial Artist.”

Xue Bing’s eyes sparkled with intense fervor.

This was the first time she had come across a case involving an Ancient Martial Artist since becoming a police officer, and her excitement was palpable.

“Chief, please assign this case to me!

I guarantee to solve it within half a month.

Also, I am an Ancient Martial Artist myself; they can’t do anything to me.”

Ye Futu ignored Xue Bing’s enthusiasm and asked solemnly, “Do we know the identities of the victims?”

Xue Bing was taken aback, then replied, “We don’t know.

No one has reported anyone missing, but we are urgently tracing it.

I believe it won’t be long before we have some information.”

“I understand,” said Ye Futu.

Ye Futu looked at Xue Bing with a stern face and said formally, “Captain Xue, I am entrusting you with this case.

Remember, do not act without my orders.

You just need to find out who the murderer is.

Don’t concern yourself with anything else.

I will personally arrange the capture.”

“Yes, Chief.

I will complete the task,” Xue Bing replied.

Xue Bing nodded joyfully, yet inwardly, she disagreed with Ye Futu’s words.

She was determined to personally apprehend the murderer, intending to prove to the doubters with her actions, not merely through connections, but through her genuine ability.

If Ye Futu had known Xue Bing’s thoughts, he would have definitely revoked her participation in the case on the spot.

He needed her to clearly identify the murderer and then neutralize the threat, not capture them alive.

Ye Futu was well aware of the terrifying strength of Ancient Martial Artists.

Once provoked, they could easily cause significant casualties among civilians and police.

Moreover, a person who could kill six individuals at once was undoubtedly ruthless, and the best approach was to neutralize them on sight rather than capture them alive—a strategy that could be costly unless one had the capability to overpower them.

…

Tianhong Road, a red BMW turned a corner and stopped in front of an older office building.

Lin Qianru and Lu Tianxing got out of the car.

“Lu Tianxing, this is our destination for today, Hongfa Clothing Co., Ltd.”

Lu Tianxing yawned, looked up, and said, “President Lin, don’t tell me Bai’s Group is a shell company!

We even have collaborations with such companies.

Are you sure it’s here, and not somewhere else?”

“Have you ever seen such a large shell company?”

Lin Qianru gave Lu Tianxing a glare and said irritably, “Three years ago, Hongfa Clothing Co., Ltd.

ordered two million worth of clothing from our company, but they still owe six hundred thousand as a final payment.

It was originally due next year, but I heard that Hongfa Company is on the brink of bankruptcy and can’t even pay its employees’ salaries.

So, we need to quickly recover this six hundred thousand to avoid losses to our company.”

Lu Tianxing frowned and said, “President Lin, isn’t it a bit indecent for us to be doing this, chasing debts when they are on the verge of bankruptcy?”

“There is nothing indecent about it; this is business.

Moreover, I know that Hongfa Company is going bankrupt solely because the boss of Hongfa Company continually misused the company funds for keeping mistresses, which led to the bankruptcy.

This is entirely his own fault.

And as far as I know, this company hasn’t gone bankrupt yet only because their boss, not willing to concede defeat, plans to make one last score and then flee.

Do you think such a person deserves sympathy?”

Lin Qianru looked up at the somewhat dilapidated office building, gave a cold laugh, and walked into the building with Lu Tianxing.

Inside, they saw a receptionist heavily made-up and idly playing games on the computer.

The receptionist looked up at Lin Qianru and Lu Tianxing, and threw a flirtatious look at Lu Tianxing, saying, “Welcome, our Hongfa Clothing Co., Ltd.

is a well-known clothing manufacturer in Modu.

I don’t know what you need…”

Lin Qianru cut her off before she could finish speaking, “We are from Bai’s Group, and we are here to settle the final payment from three years ago.”

“Bai’s Group?”

The receptionist gave Lin Qianru and Lu Tianxing a strange look, then stood up, “Please follow me, I’ll take you to the manager’s office.”

Saying this, she wiggled her hips as she walked toward the elevator.

“Vixen.”

Lin Qianru muttered discontentedly and then glanced at Lu Tianxing with a warning look.

Lu Tianxing gave a wry smile and touched his nose.

Was this another case of getting shot while lying down?

Following the receptionist, they entered the elevator and stopped only at the top floor.

Stepping out of the elevator, Lu Tianxing was slightly startled as he looked ahead…

He saw that the vast office hall was anything but bankrupt and destitute; it was rather impressive with no signs of dilapidation.

At first glance, one might suspect this wasn’t a company on the brink of bankruptcy but rather one flourishing daily.

“Indeed, to deceive others, you must first convince yourself you are not deceiving.

With such a glamorous façade, who would believe this is a company about to go bankrupt.”

Lu Tianxing muttered to himself.

In the lobby, there was a bustling crowd, everyone walking around, answering phones, and appeared very busy, so much so that they didn’t even notice their arrival.
