Chapter 83: Chapter 24: People Who Understand the Law (Please Save and Recommend)_1

Yan Fei really wasn’t afraid of making a big fuss.

The more people knew about it, the better. It would prevent others from entertaining the idea of messing with his cattle farm.

That’s how it worked in the town. Those who were bullied everyone dared to bully, while people were afraid to upset those bad neighbors.

Why do those punks act so arrogantly? Isn’t it because nobody usually pays attention to them? They shamelessly brag about being fearless and having no regards for consequence, bullying one person after another, stealing here and there, and up to all kinds of mischief.

The man selling the Ancestral Divine Medicine by the city train station managed to make a sale because he advertised that one dose could cure for a lifetime. Yan Fei planned to do the same—deal with the issues once and for all to avoid future trouble.

If they dared to keep being defiant, then let’s see how long those two could starve without dying!

The wheat seedlings on both sides of the path had almost been trampled flat by the two large groups of people. After a standoff, they all came to find Yan Fei together again.

Yan Fei’s legs were swinging back and forth, and Da Hei and Er Hei, the two fat puppies, were eagerly wrestling with his shoes!

The Elder Man of Si Family’s attitude was correct this time. He called Lin Baoguo ’Officer Lin’ instead: "Officer Lin, you’re a police officer. Are you just going to let people commit crimes? Our dog is missing too. Isn’t stealing a dog a crime?"

"Which eye of yours saw me steal your dog? It’s a litter of six adorable puppies, who would have the heart to steal them! Even if someone stole them, they’d never have the heart to slaughter and eat them. What the hell are you shouting about!" Yan Fei retorted in response.

No one in the crowd was a fool; they all understood his sarcasm. This city man was quite audacious.

But strangely, the Si Family’s brothers couldn’t retaliate: "Apart from the dog issue, we need to sort out the people. We need to see the living people or the dead bodies. Can the station just ignore the disappearance of two grown men?"

"You better hurry up and report to the Public Security Bureau! After you’ve reported, let them take their time finding them. Who knows, if they’re fast enough, you might fish them out of the river. By the way, doesn’t the Public Security Bureau’s investigate by finding the cause of the disappearance? What could be the reason indeed?" After saying this, Yan Fei lazily lowered his lids and continued to play with the puppies, without giving them a glance.

Someone in the crowd yelled, "If this cop won’t do anything, let’s go to the Public Security Bureau. If the town cop won’t do anything, let’s go to the county seat. There must be a place where we can reason this out!"

"Exactly..."

"Hurry up and go then. That person there, the one shouting the loudest, why don’t you go get some dynamite to blow up the county Public Security Bureau. I warned you, if you also disappear tonight, remind your family to go to the county Public Security Bureau to find you!" Yan Fei replied sarcastically.

The Si family’s brothers were no strangers to the Public Security Bureau, so they had a rough idea of what would happen. Even if they went to the Public Security Bureau, they themselves would be the prime suspects. After all, the missing men were last seen working for them. If the two brothers played dumb, the question of who was responsible would be apparent.

Hearing all the chatter, Yan Fei didn’t make a sound. When he saw someone trying to enter, he pointed at the doorstep and said, "Beyond this door is my territory. Think of your family before coming in. If you enter, losing a dog might be a small matter. If your whole family disappears, there won’t even be anyone left to report to the Public Security Bureau."

A few who had been shouting away attempting to enter, immediately felt uncomfortable under his stare. Suddenly, they all felt he was sinister and halted their steps.

Just a moment of silence settled over the crowd before the noise picked up again.

By this time, even people in the town had heard about the incident, and more keep coming in procession, all standing at a distance.

A thud was heard.

A woman suddenly knelt at the front door, pleading to Yan Fei: "Young man, our family head is ignorant. He deserves whatever beating or scolding you give him, but he doesn’t deserve death, does he? Please have mercy and tell us something!"

As soon as she knelt, a few others followed suit, pleading bitterly.

Yan Fei was still able to laugh: "What’s the point of asking me for mercy? The person who made the mess should be the one to fix it."

He wasn’t going to show mercy. He had invested almost all his wealth into the cattle farm. The hard work over the past days was difficult to express. God forbid his farm became a target for setting off fireworks or spreading poison. Who would he turn to then?

There were a few clear-headed people on the street. Drawn closer by the commotion, they saw everyone pleading on their knees. Trying to calm the situation, they advised, "Look at you, if everyone is like this, you should leave some room for survival, right?"

Yan Fei glanced at these self-proclaimed "straightforward" people and snickered, "Human lives are important. If you have nothing to do with this, you better keep your mouth shut. You might bring disaster to your family. I’ve warned you, we do have lots of rivers in Sancha River Town. If anyone wants to try filling them with their entire family, feel free to meddle."

Among those meddling, some had good intentions, but they were few and far between. Most just wanted to save face, felt superior, but in fact, they were just armchair experts. Who knew what they were thinking? When there was trouble, they were never around. But as soon as the situation got out of hand, a few individuals would debate back and forth, like Zhuge Liang, happily popping their heads up in the argument as if it gave them status, when in reality, they were just shit-stirrers.

Yan Fei couldn’t be bothered to give them face. When he spoke, these people soon retreated without uttering a word.

Almost everyone who’d gathered knew by now. Both Si Family’s Brothers’ big watchdogs and their pups had vanished silently in the middle of the night, and along with them, two grown men disappeared without a trace. Who would dare to talk even more for the sake of saving face?

The local police had arrived.

No one had reported anything, but it would have been odd if the police hadn’t found out about such a big incident in such a small town. Instead of Director Wang, two familiar police officers arrived. At the sight of the police, a crowd of people swarmed them.

They clamored for the police to uphold justice, but the two officers quickly dismissed them: "We must first understand the situation."

When they entered, Yan Fei also waved them off with a single sentence: "Arrest me! I know nothing. It’s a pity that two people got lost in a ditch. If they starve to death there, I have no responsibility!"

Well!

The police’s trip was in vain.

With a twist of their heads, they looked at the crowd with expressions translating to ’You see?’.

It was clear to everyone that the men had been taken and hidden, but whether they were to be released or not depended on Yan’s mood.

Nobody suggested letting the police handle justice anymore. If the people were truly arrested and got lost, after a few days of searching, they would be too late if they found two bodies starved to death.

Instead, those kneeling wept with joy. They no longer hoped for their release. As long as they knew they were alive, they were happy enough to cry again.

Clearly, it was up to the Si Family’s Brothers to resolve the matter. It was already sun down, from when men had disappeared last night.

Nobody believed that Yan Fei would treat the men well wherever they were. Considering Yan’s statement about throwing them in a ditch and leaving them without food or water, they’d be corpses by the time they were found in a few days.

The officers who arrived didn’t have any solutions. In this situation, let alone their clear bias towards the ranch, even if they truly wanted to arrest all involved, both families wouldn’t agree.

The Elder Man of the Si Family stepped forward and gritted his teeth: "Young Brother Yan, you name your price. We don’t want the land anymore, just bring the paperwork over, we’ll accept whatever compensation you want us to pay."

"Even if you accept, I don’t. I’m not in the mood today. You’ve cost me a day of school, I have to go back and review my lessons. Come back tomorrow!" It was truly maddening. Everyone knew that this guy worked by fits and starts and still had the audacity to say that as if he would be attending school otherwise.

After finishing his speech, Yan Fei turned around, led his two chubby puppies inside.

The Si Family’s Brothers thought about saying, "We don’t care anymore. If you can, kill them." But they genuinely didn’t dare. If the men died, it would turn into a major case and land squarely on their heads. The police would undoubtedly come for them first. Not to mention, the families of those two men were still around! They were sure that they would be killed first, whether the others die or not, as soon as this statement was made.

Yan Fei wasn’t done having fun. He went inside, made a round, brought out two small notebooks, and held them up high: "Look, I, too, know the law. If you’re under fourteen, you won’t be held accountable for murder, and if you’re mentally ill, you can kill without breaking the law! Remember this. If you want to pick a fight, kill me first. If you don’t, I’ll throw your entire family into the river. Don’t complain when we reach Yama’s Palace!"

His arrogance knew no bounds.

It was only then that people remembered. This was a naughty child who had no fear, a bullheaded kid with formidable strength who dared to stir up trouble.

Seven, eight, nine-year-old children were disliked even by dogs. Teens were even more reckless and inconsiderate, ready to stab someone over an eraser. Including the Si Family’s Brothers, everyone realized that their adult thinking, past experiences of getting away with things, were futile in front of this teenager.

But now, regret was a little too late.
