A Valiant Life Chapter 531 - I, who know the truth, am shedding tears

These few days, to Shen Jie Yun and the rest, had been a very beneficial period. With Guru at their sides, they had learned a significant number of technical skills. These were things that couldn’t be learned from books. If the Guru hadn’t taught them, who knew how long they would take to understand these?

The sound of laughter emanated.

“Guru, you’re too awesome. Let me tell you, I’ve seen that movie. It’s very good indeed but I’ve found an even higher definition version and it took quite some work to find it,” said Sun Neng proudly.

Lin Fan said in surprise, “Wow, you’re that amazing?”

“Hehe,” Sun Neng laughed as he received this praise.

They had gotten a hotel room outside the detention house since they were coming over every day. They would return to the hotel at night. Learning skills from the Guru was something that they really yearned for and the Guru wasn’t selfish too. He didn’t try to hide his skills. He really taught them true technical skills.

They were really grateful for the Guru.

Outside!

A number of people had gathered at the entrance of the detention house.

And these were all reporters. They had waited for a long time already. The news hadn’t been disseminated on the Internet and many netizens were paying close attention to this matter.

Without getting any news about Master Lin, their hearts wouldn’t be at peace.

Now, not only the netizens were anxious, even the reporters were very anxious. Even as the frontline personnel of news, they actually could not obtain any news. How scary was that?

Hence, they were now gathered together, preparing to charge into the detention house. No matter what, they had to find out about Master Lin’s situation.

This hero was worth their sacrifice. They couldn’t just watch idly as a hero was punished.

“What are you all doing here?” The policemen blocked out the reporters. Without orders, they couldn’t let these reporters in.

“We’re here to gather news about Master Lin.”

“Master Lin is locked inside. What exactly is the situation right now? Have you all tried to extort a confession from him?”

“Even if he hacked into a bank, he still should go through the legal procedure. Now, he didn’t even go through the legal procedure. You all must have pa.s.sed a sentence without proper procedure. We request to see Master Lin.”

“We have the right to know the truth.”

“We want to see Master Lin.”

The reporters’ objective was clear. Without seeing Master Lin, they would not leave. Moreover, they even had an urge to charge inside.

The policemen tried to maintain order on the site, “Don’t crowd around. We’ve already asked for instructions from the higher-ups. Please wait patiently.”

When Liu Xiao Tian received news of this, he was speechless.

However, he permitted it.

They could see Master Lin.

…

When the reporters founded out that they could see Master Lin, they were all fired up. When they went in, they had to take a good look and check if Master Lin was hurt or if he had been forced to confess.

Although they occasionally reported untrue news, Master Lin was a hero and no matter what, they had to report truthfully about him.

They only hoped that Master Lin wasn’t having a hard time. Otherwise, they would be very upset.

As they headed towards Master Lin, the reporters looked at the surroundings.

“This place is too miserable. How can Master Lin endure being here?”

“Yeah. And we don’t even know how long he’ll be locked up. I heard that he was sentenced to ten years.”

“I heard that he’s been sentenced to thirty years.”

“Sigh, his magnificent youth will be gone. How could that happen?”

…

The policemen opened the last door. “Master Lin’s location is just in front.”

When he said that, all the reporters rushed forward as if they couldn’t wait to see Master Lin.

“Master Lin, we’re here.”

The reporters went in like a swarm of bees.

Then, Lin Fan was laughing loudly, “Haha, you all are going to lose. What will you do against this card of mine? I’ll play around with you all with an open hand.”

Sun Neng cried out in shock, “D*mn, that’s way too perverse. Five bombs and your individual cards are jokers. How are we even supposed to play?”

Lin Fan chuckled, “If you surrender, you’ll only lose half.”

“No, we won’t surrender. If you’re going to openly play with us, then don’t blame us.”

Four of them were playing the card game ‘Fight the Landlord’ and there were a few other people standing at the side, watching and occasionally giving tips on what card to play.

Lin Fan was holding his cards in one hand and a big chicken leg in the other. He was eating happily. “No hurry. I’ll let you slowly consider…”

“Master Lin, we’re here. You don’t need to suffer anymore.”

At that moment, a series of shocked cries came from afar. In the blink of an eye, a group of reporters had appeared in the cell, holding cameras in their hands and capturing photos.

The reporters had many things they wanted to say to Master Lin but when they saw this scene, they were all stunned.

This…

Lin Fan slowly looked at the reporters and gently bit his chicken leg. “You all are here for…?”

The reporters scanned the place and rubbed their eyes. Were they seeing things?

The ‘suffering’ Master Lin, seemed to be doing pretty good here.

Eating a big chicken leg.

Playing cards.

And he even had a comfortable bed to sleep in.

This seemed different from the rumors.

Moreover, this level of enjoyment was enraging.

Lin Fan asked in a puzzled tone, “My dear reporters, what are you all doing here?”

At that moment, the reporters regained their senses and continued taking photos with their cameras.

“Master Lin, this situation of yours is different from what we had thought.”

“Yeah! Were you treated cruelly and forced to confess?”

“Master Lin, the ma.s.ses of netizens are very concerned about you. They’ve been worried all this time. How long is your sentence?”

Their questions were many but it was heartwarming for Lin Fan. He never thought that so many people would be concerned about him. It was really touching.

Lin Fan put down the chicken leg. “My dear reporters, I’m very well in here, no need to worry about me. Hacking into the bank was a serious matter. Although my intentions were good, my actions were not right, therefore, I’ve accepted my punishment. I will be here for a month to reflect on my actions.”

The reporters were lost for words. Reflect on his actions? Reflect my a.s.s! Was there even any other prisoner in the country who lived as freely as him?

He didn’t only have a chicken leg, he even had a comfortable bed and the most important part was that he had people to play cards with him. Even people outside weren’t as comfortable as him.

The next day!

Ma.s.ses of the public saw the news on the Internet and flared up in rage.

What was up with these reporters’ brains? Why were all they’re headlines similar?

‘Master Lin is getting by very well. n.o.body needs to worry.’

‘Master Lin will be out soon.’

‘I’ve been very comfortable in this prison. It’s given me a different kind of feeling.’

These news articles had no photos and didn’t say much either, only that he would be locked up for a month.

However, how could the netizens believe that?

“Does the editor have sh*t for brains? How can he be comfortable in prison? If you say it’s comfortable, why don’t you go?”

“I’ve been in prison before. In there, it’s simply suffering. I’ve vowed to never go back again.”

“Master Lin must be really suffering. Even the editors are hiding the truth.”

“We won’t believe this news. Release the real news. We will be able to accept it. Is Master Lin hurt or has he been cruelly beaten?”

…

A certain well-known reporter posted on Weibo: “Dear netizens, you all don’t have to keep asking. I’m afraid that you won’t be able to take the truth.”

When this Weibo post was sent, it garnered even more curiosity. At the same time, all of their gossipy hearts started to burn up.

“We want the truth!”

“Release the photos. We want to see how Master Lin is doing.”

“Master Lin, you have to stay strong!”

“Despicable. This is truly despicable. If I had the ability, I would definitely rescue Master Lin.”

This well-known reporter had never expected his words to draw such drastic public opinion. He was dumbfounded.

If he let this develop further, it would be bad.

In the end, he could only release the photos to the public.

“This is what you all have asked for. Don’t cry after seeing it.”

Ten over photos appeared on Weibo.

In an instant, discussions rose on the Internet.

A certain netizen who had been in prison before snarled, “I must have f*cking went to a fake prison!”
