Chapter 596: 596
Yu Minmin said to keep the matter under wraps as much as possible since Eric was still unaware about it . This was to avoid blowing up the matter and placing Lu Yunshi in even more danger .

Thus, the two of them left separately to look for her .
With her bodyguard in tow, Lin Che drove to the first location in no time .
She went in and scoured the premises once . She saw that it was an ordinary pub and there was nothing special about it . Then, she took the photo that the director had given her and went around asking people about the man . In the end, the people there said that the man was a frequent customer but had not come here today . Furthermore, there was nothing unordinary about him either .
Lin Che could only go to the second location . However, she did not obtain any new leads either .
Slightly disappointed, Lin Che sat there texting Yu Minmin on her phone, asking her how things were going .
Yu Minmin had similarly not discovered anything .
Lin Che proceeded to go to the third location without harboring any expectations .
It was an arcade . The fact that a game hall even existed was pretty strange to her too .
However, after going in, she saw that there were quite a number of people . The machines were all retro machines . It looked like a place that was popular among people who liked retro things .
As Lin Che had disguised herself a little, no one recognized who exactly she was . They merely found that she looked slightly strange .
With the photo in her hand, Lin Che first blocked someone before asking politely, “Sorry to take up your time . Do you know this person?”
Upon seeing the photo, his eyes flashed .
“Why are you looking for him?”
“Eh, so you know him, right?” The moment Lin Che heard that there was hope, she hastily followed up with another question .

However, just then, the man turned around and ran out immediately .
It made Lin Che lose her bearings completely .
She paused for a bit before saying frantically to her bodyguard, “Chase after him . ”
The bodyguard ran after him at her instruction .
Lin Che also ran after him .
However, the man headed straight into a passageway .
The guards by the door blocked her bodyguard .
By this time, Lin Che had caught up as well .
Seeing that the man had disappeared into the passageway, Lin Che pointed inside and said to the staff member who had blocked them, “He ran inside . We’re looking for him . What does he do here?”
After seeing the photo Lin Che showed him and hearing her ask whether he knew the man in the photo, the man actually ran away . It clearly showed that he felt guilty .
The staff at the door looked Lin Che up and down before scoffing and saying, “This is a private area . You’re not allowed to go in . ”
Lin Che said, “But we have to see him . He has information that we need . I must see him . Don’t stop me or I won’t go easy on you!”
Lin Che could not tell them what she intended to do, so she could only threaten them with this statement .
However, the staff merely looked at the two people . One was a bodyguard and looked pretty tall and big . But Lin Che was just a girl and would definitely not be a threat . She would just drag him down instead .

Thus, the man in front of her scoffed with his nose in the air before saying condescendingly, “It’s best not to throw your weight around while you’re here . ”
Lin Che said, “We must see this person today . If you’re sure that you won’t allow me to go in…
At that, Lin Che started to walk straight ahead .
They sneered upon seeing the situation . One of them clapped his hands and immediately a few men appeared from the door behind . Although they were of different builds, all of them shared the same vicious expression . They looked at Lin Che and her bodyguard while walking towards them .
They had strength in numbers; altogether there were around ten or more of them . They were really at an advantage based on numbers alone .
That was why the man sneered and looked at Lin Che . “You can still leave now . ”
Lin Che gazed at them and merely smiled coolly . Then, she instructed the bodyguard, “I’m going in to look for him . Make sure they don’t come in . ”
“Yes, Madam . ”
Following this, the first thing the bodyguard did was to suddenly strike a blow by kicking the man in front of him .
Their eyes widened slightly in shock . Was the tall and well-built bodyguard actually going to take on so many of them?
Thereafter, all of them charged at him together .
The man pointed to Lin Che who was about to barge in . “You… get this straight . You’re truly asking for death by throwing your weight around here . ”
However, the moment he was done speaking, the bodyguard hooked him using his arm and pulled him over . Then, he punched him in the face and pushed him to the ground .
The bodyguard’s movements were agile . His strength was frightening and he moved very swiftly .

His movements were smooth and ceaseless .
After kicking him to the ground, the bodyguard stomped on him while smoothly breaking another man’s wrist without hesitation and pushing him aside .
It only took a little while for sounds of pain to fill the area .
At least now, they knew that the people who came today were really not to be trifled with .
It was even more inconceivable to them that a man who looked so normal was unexpectedly so formidable . In no time, he had beaten up ten or more of them without breaking a sweat . It was as if he had been punching sandbags .
However, Lin Che had known from the start that these people would be unable to withstand a single blow if they were ordinary people .
Lin Che knew how strong her bodyguards were . Even people who knew a bit of martial arts would lose to them .
Much less these ordinary people who did not even know how to fight and simply started throwing blows immediately, leveraging on their numbers to win the fight .
To him, defeating them was probably really as easy as throwing sandbags .
They did not even think about the fact that the person they went up against was a bodyguard ranked among the top bodyguards even on an international level .
Lin Che took advantage of the chaos outside and walked in .
The man inside was already shivering in fear . He did not expect that she would still be able to enter despite the people obstructing her outside .
Furthermore, since he had heard the noise earlier, he knew now that he had nowhere to run .
He looked at Lin Che . “I… I… I don’t know anything . ”
Lin Che said, “I haven’t even asked you anything . But you’re saying that you don’t know anything?”
He did not think that the people outside would not be able to stop her either .
It looked like he had provoked someone whom he could not afford to provoke .
He could only weaken his stance and say, “To be honest, I’ve seen that person before . We stole something together in the past . I thought you were looking for us because we stole your things, so I ran away . ”
Lin Che’s intuition told her that this person definitely knew something .
“I think it’s better for you to tell me . Otherwise, I will find out about all these things sooner or later . As you have seen, I’m no ordinary person . When the die is cast, all of you will be accomplices . I absolutely won’t go easy on you . ”
She frightened the man before her who clearly looked very cowardly .
Feeling guilty, he looked at Lin Che and hesitated for a long time before finally saying, “Fine… I’ll tell you . I’ll tell you everything . But I’m really not involved in this at all . ”
Lin Che asked, “You know where this man is, right?”
“No . I only know that he previously mentioned that he had met a big client . He said that he was given a huge sum of money and was going to strike it rich . He only needed to go away and hide for a few days . ”
“Anything else?”
“Also… he asked me whether there was a safe place to hide . ”
Hearing this, Lin Che’s eyes brightened . “So you showed him a safe place, right?”
The boy could only look at her and nod in fear .
Lin Che felt that he was really looking at her as if he was looking at some terrifyingly evil person . She could not help but feel frustrated as well . Did she look that scary?
