Divine Doctor Dragon Master

Chapter 48: 48: The Inverse Scale!



At this moment, Wang Huai felt refreshed and invigorated. Seeing Xu Mulin's store sealed off, he became excited, "Trying to compete with me? You're still too green, kid!"

He was somewhat proud of himself.

After all, with Xu Mulin's store closed, his own business was doing much better, with a surge in customer traffic.

Moreover, with this wave of seemingly "upright and unyielding" behavior, he had earned a lot of praise from the nearby customers. Now his store was packed to the rafters!

All this meant money!

This time, he was thankful for his nephew's help, which had made things go so smoothly.

A simpleton like Xu Mulin, who had no background or abilities, was just easy prey in his game.

However, the smug look on his face quickly vanished.

Because.

He saw several cars with flashing lights stopping in front of his store. At first, he thought it was his nephew Lin Zhirui, but the person who got out was an unfamiliar middle-aged man!

The badge on the man's shoulder signified an extraordinary status.

"Hiss!"

Wang Huai gasped in surprise, realizing this person might hold a much higher rank than his nephew.

The authority radiating from the man was not to be underestimated.

But the next moment, something even more baffling happened. Xu Mulin and Qin Jiang, who had been arrested, got out of the car. Furthermore, the middle-aged man respectfully welcomed Qin Jiang, who was by Xu Mulin's side!

What was happening?

He had clearly told Lin Zhirui to keep these two locked up for a while!

How could they be released so soon?

Before he could even process his shock, Qin Jiang was already approaching him with a stern face.

"How did you two come back?"

Wang Huai demanded.

Qin Jiang replied with a cold smile, "Of course, we came back to settle accounts with you."

Wang Huai's eyelid twitched, "Settle what accounts?"

Chen Jiuheng's gaze hardened, and he said indifferently, "Lin Zhirui has confessed everything. Are you still resisting?"

Wang Huai immediately felt a chill down his spine and said, "I don't understand what you're talking about!"

Chen Jiuheng threw out a document.

"First, you and Lin Zhirui are related as uncle and nephew!"

"Second, the person you hired to act was named Zhang Shun, a fellow townsman of yours. Yesterday, his account received a suspicious sum of money!"

"That money was transferred to him by you."

"Lin Zhirui has confessed that it was you who instigated Zhang Shun to pretend to have food poisoning in Xu Mulin's store, then had Lin Zhirui personally come to make the arrest, all to tarnish Xu Mulin's reputation."

"You did this to achieve your competitive objectives."

"Now, I, Chen Jiuheng, Chief Detective of Jiangcheng, formally arrest you for the crime of making false accusations!"

Having said that, he took out handcuffs and started advancing steadily towards Wang Huai.

Wang Huai felt as though he had been struck by lightning and immediately knelt before him, "Chief Detective, spare me, please!"

"I know I was wrong! I know I was wrong!"

Xu Mulin gritted his teeth in anger, "You know you're wrong now? When you were framing me, when you were ruthless, why didn't you admit your mistake then?"

"Scumbag!"

"Old bastard, commit enough unjust acts and you'll kill yourself! Now, enjoy your life in prison!"

And the scene unfolding before their eyes was also witnessed by the passersby and the customers in the nearby shops.

"What's going on?"

"I heard that the owner framed someone..."

"Isn't that the owner of the shop next door? Wasn't he arrested? How did he get out?"

"I just overheard it, they say that Wang Huai framed the other party, intentionally had someone fake food poisoning to ruin their reputation, and now it's been found out!"

"That's despicable!"

"Pah! I actually thought he was righteous, but it turns out he's the truly unscrupulous one!"

Hearing the truth, the other shop owners were filled with righteous indignation, feeling they'd been fooled by Wang Huai. They overturned tables and left the place in a huff.

Chen Jiuheng gestured grandly, ordering his subordinates to seal off Wang Huai's shop immediately.

And the sobbing Wang Huai was forcibly taken away by Chen Jiuheng...

The onlookers, upon hearing of his deeds, were filled with contempt for him.

Qin Jiang said indifferently, "Chief Detective Chen, criminals like him need to be taught a lesson. It'd be best to put him in cell number eight and let those 'big brothers' take care of him."

"Understood, understood!" Chen Jiuheng nodded repeatedly, "Mr. Qin, rest assured, we'll take good care of him."

Chen Jiuheng looked at Wang Huai with pity; with his slender frame, he'd probably last less than a minute in cell number eight before getting beaten half to death and carried out...

Then, Xu Mulin tore off all the seals from his own shop and said, "Fellow townspeople, I'd like to explain the recent food poisoning incident that supposedly originated from my restaurant was a complete fabrication."

"I, Xu Mulin, assure you that the source of the food and the production process in my restaurant is up to standard and follows regulations. Please rest assured."

"I also hope that when you all return, you can help clear the air with the neighbors about this matter. I'd be most grateful!"

After the crowd dissipated, Xu Mulin looked at Qin Jiang with complexity in his eyes, admiration among the emotions. He hadn't expected that Qin Jiang knew the Chief Detective of the Patrol House! With ease, he resolved this troubling situation…

Now, he was extremely curious about what exactly happened during the three years Qin Jiang was in prison.

Qin Jiang patted her shoulder and chuckled, "How about it, not too shabby in handling this, eh?"

"It's okay," Xu Mulin pursed her lips, "Barely passable, but if you want me to acknowledge you, you'll need to work harder."

Qin Jiang also smiled slightly and patted his shoulder, "Then you work hard, I'm heading back first."

He hailed a taxi and returned home.

But!

Just as he arrived downstairs, a mocking voice rang out, "Yo, Qin Jiang, the reformed convict returns, huh?"

Qin Jiang turned around to find a short, stout man with an ostentatiously dressed woman in his arms, walking towards him with an arrogant air, looking him up and down, "Years have passed, and you're still as pathetic! So? Found a job after getting out? Need me to hook you up with a security guard position?"

Qin Jiang looked back indifferently, glanced at the short and stout youth, uninterested in engaging with him, and directly turned to leave.

The stout youth stepped sideways, blocking his path.

"What are you pretending for? You think a reformed convict like you can strut around in front of me?"

"Move away!" Qin Jiang said coldly.

He naturally recognized the youth; they lived in the same neighborhood, named Li Jian.

Since childhood, Li Jian was involved in petty thefts and had harassed Qin Sisi frequently, so he had been beaten by Qin Jiang from childhood into adulthood, and they had always been at odds with each other.

Li Jian sneered, "Oh, Qin Jiang, you were quite impressive when younger, studying and all. You never imagined you'd end up like this, did you?"

"No house, no car, no girlfriend, and no job... A loser like you, what's the point of being alive? At least I am a department manager at the Xu Group now, earning over twenty thousand a month!"

"How about this? Give me your disabled sister to be my mistress, and I'll give you three hundred a month, how's that? Hahahaha—" Li Jian ridiculed him with a laugh.

Qin Jiang, initially not wanting to bother with him, slowly turned back when he heard him mention Qin Sisi, his voice chilling to the bone, "What did you say just now?"
