Chapter 49 I Saved You
"Is it him?" Seeing Lin Tian, not only was Chen Yixuan stunned, but the police officers who recognized Lin Tian were also stunned.
It could be said that most of the people here knew Lin Tian, after all, a man who had knocked down more than a dozen knife-wielding thugs bare-handed was simply a miracle.
And Lin Tian's heroic deeds had already spread throughout the police station, so naturally, many people recognized him.
Being kicked fiercely and sent flying, Wang Zhong was utterly dumbstruck.
He had not expected someone to be at the entrance of the alley, and he hadn't felt a thing!
Lin Tian's kick was full of hatred, and even now Wang Zhong was still feeling a writhing pain in his abdomen.
Feeling the pain in his body, Wang Zhong's eyes narrowed, and his gaze towards Lin Tian flickered with a glint of cold light, "A master!"
Anyone who could injure him with a single kick was definitely a master!
With that thought in mind, Wang Zhong turned his head to look to the side. The pistol was lying two meters away.
When Lin Tian had kicked him earlier, he also took the opportunity to flick at Wang Zhong's arm, sending the pistol flying from his grasp.
Staring at the pistol two meters away, Wang Zhong leapt up and pounced toward it!
"Crack!" Suddenly, a foot appeared viciously stepping on the pistol and then twisted!
"Crack!" Shattered!
With one stomp, Lin Tian completely smashed the pistol to pieces!
Wang Zhong's eyes narrowed, and he swept a leg over!
Lin Tian instinctively dodged with a step of his foot!
Thwack!
Even though Lin Tian had evaded, his foot had still been grazed by Wang Zhong's sweep.
The force transmitted from his calf made Lin Tian startle.
Such tremendous power!
This was the greatest strength Lin Tian had encountered among all the people he had met.
Lin Tian was somewhat startled, and Wang Zhong was even more astonished, even a bit shocked.
When his sweeping kick had gone through, he felt as if he had struck stone, such was the hardness of the muscles in Lin Tian's foot.
Giving Lin Tian a fierce glare, Wang Zhong quickly got up and sprinted towards the entrance of the alley!
Escape!
Just from that single strike, Wang Zhong knew Lin Tian was not someone to be dismissed lightly, and with the police nearby, staying here was a death sentence!
Seeing Wang Zhong running away without hesitation, Lin Tian was taken aback for a moment, then he smiled, tensed the muscles in his legs, and pushed off fiercely!
Zoom!
Lin Tian swiftly pounced forward!
Wang Zhong was fast, but compared to Lin Tian going all out, he was essentially nothing!
"Whoosh!" Hearing the sound of something cutting through the air behind his head, Wang Zhong was startled!
Fast!
Such an incredibly fast speed!
He wanted to dodge, but his body's reaction couldn't keep up with the speed of his thoughts.
Just as he thought to dodge, a sudden intense pain erupted in his back, accompanied by the sound of a "crack."
The spine was broken!
Lin Tian had punched Wang Zhong's spine so hard it broke, instantly paralyzing Wang Zhong's lower body.
Thud!
Carrying strong inertia, Wang Zhong's body harshly fell to the ground. The force was so great it even scraped his face.
"Rustle, rustle!" At that moment, the police finally reacted and all rushed over.
Even though Wang Zhong lay immobilized on the ground, the officers still aimed their guns at him, looking as if they were facing a formidable foe.
After glancing at these tense police officers, Lin Tian spoke indifferently, "Don't worry, I've broken his spine, and he doesn't have a gun anymore."
"The spine is broken?" Hearing this, everyone was taken aback.
After a moment of surprise, but still not letting their guard down, some officers immediately handcuffed Wang Zhong's hands behind his back. After all, even with a broken spine, his hands could still possibly function.
After handcuffing Wang Zhong, the officers finally breathed a sigh of relief, and tried to pull Wang Zhong up.
But with a broken spine and no feeling in his lower limbs, Wang Zhong couldn't exert any strength and was unable to stand.
"That's enough, let him lie there for now," said a squad leader after glancing at Wang Zhong.
Feeling that Wang Zhong was no longer a threat, Lin Tian swept him another glance and then turned to walk towards Chen Yixuan, who wasn't far off.
At that time, Chen Yixuan was being supported by her colleagues, sitting and resting in the corner.
When Lin Tian got in front of Chen Yixuan and saw she wasn't seriously injured, he squatted down, looked at her with a grin, and said, "Beauty, I saved you today!"
Chen Yixuan was leaning against the wall, panting slightly with her mouth, and she gazed somewhat dazedly at the grinning boy beside her.
Chen Yixuan felt very stunned. She couldn't have imagined that Lin Tian would show up at this time and actually save her.
It was like a dream!
Watching Chen Yixuan staring dumbfounded at him, Lin Tian raised an eyebrow and said with a teasing smile, "What? Beauty, are you so dazzled by my handsomeness that you can't take your eyes off me?"
Hearing the familiar tone, Chen Yixuan rolled her eyes, speechless.
"I saved you today, so we're even for what happened yesterday!" Lin Tian said to Chen Yixuan with a serious face.
When Chen Yixuan heard Lin Tian's words, she immediately thought of the scene from last night, the hand grabbing her butt.
As she recalled this, a flash of anger crossed Chen Yixuan's face as she retorted indignantly, "In your dreams!"
"Oh?" Lin Tian raised an eyebrow, scanning Chen Yixuan. "Is it really worth getting so worked up over? It's not like I grabbed your chest; it was just your butt!" Lin Tian said dismissively, pursing his lips.
"You!" Chen Yixuan was furious! If it weren't for her lack of strength, she would have gotten up and beaten the crap out of this brat right now.
"Lin Tian?" Just as Lin Tian was about to say something, a voice came from behind him.
Lin Tian stood up and turned around to see the squad leader from before. He had seen him at the police station.
"I am Lin Tian," he said, giving the man a quick nod. He knew that the follow-up to the incident had arrived.
"Here's the thing, I'd like you to come to the station with me later to make a statement, just to get an understanding of the situation," the squad leader explained, afraid that Lin Tian would be opposed to the idea.
"No problem!" Lin Tian nodded calmly.
Ever since he knew he'd intervened, he could imagine this scene. After all, he had subdued the criminal and caused injury; surely, he couldn't just walk away without saying a word.
The police were bound to look for him to gather information. Lin Tian was already mentally prepared.
"Doot doot..." Just then, successive police siren sounds came from afar. The backup police were only now arriving, accompanied by three or four ambulances.
Looking at the busy scene, the squad leader said to Lin Tian, "Let's head over there."
"Alright," Lin Tian agreed. But as he turned to leave, Lin Tian looked back at Chen Yixuan and playfully pouted, his hand miming a grabbing motion in the air.
He then chuckled and swiftly turned to leave before Chen Yixuan could react.
When Lin Tian had turned and gone, Chen Yixuan finally realized what he'd done, and her pretty face flushed with irritation. "Damn kid, just wait until you're in my hands!" she muttered.
**
Two days later, Lin Tian was at home, bored, flipping through a book.
Lin Tian hadn't left the house for two days. His mother, Shi Qing, had found out about what had happened the day before and was very angry that her son had recklessly fought with a criminal; she had grounded him.
As for the police questioning that day, there were no problems. They asked him why he had been there, and Lin Tian simply said he happened to be passing by. Seeing the criminal, he had acted out of a sense of justice.
Though he said that, whether they believed him didn't concern Lin Tian. They couldn't find any other evidence anyway. Besides, Lin Tian had helped them after all.
And just like that, Lin Tian smoothly brushed off the police interrogation. The only thing that annoyed him was that despite his request to keep his parents unaware, they had still informed his family.
"So boring..." Propping his chin with one hand and casually browsing through a math book with the other, Lin Tian felt extremely bored. He had already mastered these books and found them not challenging at all.
But he couldn't read novels either; his mother had confiscated them all, along with his phone.
"Boring..." Lin Tian looked up at the window with a bored expression.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
"Ding dong..." Suddenly, the doorbell rang.
Hearing the doorbell, Lin Tian got up and opened the bedroom door, looking toward the front door.
Upon opening the door, he saw his mother had already opened it. Lin Tian glanced over and saw Bu Mengting coming in, holding a set of practice exam papers.
Seeing Shi Qing, Bu Mengting smiled sweetly, "Auntie, I've come to ask Lin Tian some questions."
"Oh, Mengting, come in," Shi Qing greeted her warmly.
"Mhm!" Bu Mengting smiled sweetly.
A few minutes later, in Lin Tian's bedroom, Lin Tian was explaining a problem to Bu Mengting, "You just need to derive this part, you just didn't think of this step."
Listening to Lin Tian's explanation, Bu Mengting nodded her head in sudden understanding. Lin Tian's explanations had made everything clear to her.
Looking at the test paper in her hands, Bu Mengting suddenly sighed softly, her expression turning somewhat gloomy.
"What's wrong?" Seeing Bu Mengting's mood suddenly drop, Lin Tian asked curiously.
Raising her head, Bu Mengting spoke with a hint of despondency, "My grades are so bad, getting into a second-tier college is already a stretch, let alone going to Wu'an University with you."
"Uh..." Lin Tian was taken aback at her words.
Previously, Lin Tian had made a promise with Bu Mengting that they would attend the same university, aiming for Wu'an City's Wu'an University.
Wu'an University wasn't a top university in the country, but it was considered a first-tier institution, a top-tier university.
However, Bu Mengting's grades weren't very good, barely passing the second-tier cutoff in the mock exams. Naturally, her scores weren't enough to get into Wu'an University.
"Don't worry, I will help you," he reassured her after a pause, smiling easily.
Lin Tian was well aware of Bu Mengting's grades, but he already had a plan in mind. He wouldn't have made that promise if he wasn't confident he could get Bu Mengting into Wu'an University alongside himself.
"How can you help me? It's impossible!" Bu Mengting said, looking down in a dispirited manner as her feet fidgeted aimlessly, displaying her frustration.
"I..." Lin Tian was about to speak when suddenly a synthetic electronic voice echoed in his mind:
"Task: Help Bu Mengting get accepted to Wu'an University. Task Reward: One Supernatural Point."
