Become a Knight Across the World

Chapter 197 It really is Wang Hao

After all, under current law, groping someone's shoes does not directly constitute the crime of indecent assault; at most, it will only result in a fine.

However, if this incident were to spread, the person who molested her shoes would only be condemned as a lecher, while she, as the victim, would receive more attention and be subjected to more vulgar and offensive language.

Although Lin Yue didn't care about these empty titles, she would definitely feel uncomfortable if people pointed fingers at her, and this unfairness also made her very upset.

She thought about it carefully again. She wanted to tell her brother and sister-in-law, but after thinking about it for a long time, she decided against it.

Her brother was already busy with work, so she decided not to bother them. Finally, she sent Li Yuejiao a message: "Sister Yuejiao, are you there? I need your help with something..."

.........

"Hahaha, he actually did something like that. That little brat must be so embarrassed now. He really impressed me."

In City A, Wen Wanting listened to her trusted subordinate recount her conversation with Wang Hao, laughing so hard she could hardly breathe.

"This is hilarious! That little girl might have called the police. Go and suppress this," she ordered.

Wang Hao must be feeling a bit apprehensive about doing that kind of thing now, since the other party is indeed a Kamen Rider.

But if everything goes smoothly, Wang Hao's audacity will definitely grow.

"By the way, isn't Lin Mu still under investigation? There's no need to investigate him anymore. Let him be released and reinstated." She was in a good mood today, and besides, Lin Mu was a key member of the Kamen Riders and hadn't actually committed any crimes. Keeping him locked up would inevitably attract gossip.

Her trusted confidante accepted the order and left. Wen Wanting leaned back in her chair, her eyes filled with smugness. She wanted to see Lin Yue's frustrated and helpless expression.

Upon his release, Lin Mu was filled with doubt when he learned that it was Wen Wanting who had ordered his release. He couldn't understand why this woman would release him, but before he could think further, Wen Wanting summoned him.

Lin Mu arrived at Wen Wanting's office with a mix of trepidation and excitement.

"Please sit down." Wen Wanting pointed to the chair opposite her, a genuine smile on her face.

Lin Mu was very puzzled. He was shocked when he learned that it was Wen Wanting who had pulled him out. After all, he was the one who had put her in the water in the first place.

He sat down, looking at her warily: "President Wen, may I ask why you have summoned me this time?"

Wen Wanting crossed her arms in front of her chest and said, "Lin Mu, I released you. You should be grateful."

Lin Mu narrowed his eyes: "A clear conscience fears no accusation. I did nothing wrong, so why should I be grateful?"

Wen Wanting smiled, but the smile didn't reach her eyes: "I know what you're worried about, but now I'm the vice president, and the responsibilities on my shoulders are heavier than before. Naturally, there's no need to turn the knife on our own people; that's meaningless."

Lin Mu clearly didn't believe her, but Wen Wanting continued, "I don't know what you did wrong, but I got you out of this mess because I really need you." She handed Lin Mu a stack of documents.

Lin Mu glanced at it: "An attack at the barrier in U City? Has it gotten that serious?"

Outside the boundary barrier of U City lies the territory of the Demonic Wraiths. These demonic wraiths feed on humans and are of medium strength among all monster races. However, most of them are quite large, and once they break into the city, they can cause great destruction, making them rather troublesome to deal with.

“Yes, we are short-handed over there right now.” Wen Wanting said seriously, “Although I know about Zi-O, he hasn’t collected all the Kamen Rider powers yet. And because of Zi-O and Another Rider, we’ve lost a lot of powerful Kamen Riders. Now we don’t even have the power of our association’s strongest sword and Mago. The adjustment of Kamen Rider manpower is more troublesome than before. You should understand this. It’s a fact.”

Lin Mu was silent for a moment, then looked up and said, "So you want me to go to U City to provide support?" Wen Wanting nodded: "That's right. You are a key member of the Kamen Riders. With you there, the pressure over there will be much less."

Lin Mu gripped the documents in his hand, a hint of hesitation in his mind. He wasn't sure if Wen Wanting's actions were genuinely for the organization's sake, or if she had some other ulterior motive.

Looking at his expression, Wen Wanting became serious: "I am now the vice president. Do you think I would joke about matters of principle?"

Seeing her serious expression, Lin Mu, though still wary, had indeed heard about the situation at the U City barrier. As a Kamen Rider, he had a responsibility to protect humanity. "Okay, I'll go," Lin Mu finally agreed. Wen Wanting smiled with satisfaction: "Very good, set off as soon as possible, the situation there is urgent."

After Lin Mu left, Wen Wanting's smile vanished. She hadn't lied; everything she'd said before was true, and under normal circumstances, retrieving W would indeed yield the optimal solution.

She had just cleverly used this point to force Lin Mu to go. Besides, the distance between U City and Z City is quite far.

Just then, her phone beeped, and a new message appeared on the screen: "My dear niece, how does it taste of power? Don't forget who put you in this position! See you at the usual place tonight."

Upon seeing the message, Wen Wanting felt nauseous, but she forced herself to reply, "Understood." However, her hands unconsciously clenched into fists, revealing her inner resentment and helplessness.

"Damn Lin Mu!" Wen Wanting cursed inwardly. "If it weren't for you, how could I have ended up selling my body like this!" Her hatred for Lin Mu burned like a raging fire, growing ever stronger.

“Just you wait…” Wen Wanting said through gritted teeth, “I’ll turn her into a whore for everyone, and make everyone point fingers at her! Then, I’ll see what kind of expression you’ll have… It’ll definitely be quite a sight…”

Looking at the message on her phone, she opened the innermost drawer, took out a birth control pill, and put it in her pocket.

For her, power truly is the most satisfying thing in the world.

.........

As expected of the leader of the assassin organization, Li Yuejiao had already found the most suspicious person in less than half an hour after Lin Yue explained the situation.

Lin Yue had originally planned to have the shoes checked for DNA, but she said it wasn't necessary. Soon, she found out who it was, and after thoroughly investigating the other person's information, her eyes grew colder and colder.

She called Li Yuetian directly: "Hey, what are you doing?"

Li Yuetian had been dragged into playing games with Lu Chen until the early hours of the morning last night, and was now catching up on sleep in bed: "I'm sleeping, what's up, sis?"

"What?!" Li Yue was furious. Lin Yue had been insulted like this, and her good younger brother was still sleeping at home!

"I'm giving you five minutes to get out of the house! Otherwise, I won't let you off the hook!" Li Yuejiao angrily hung up the phone. Li Yuetian didn't know, which means Lin Yue didn't tell him about this. How did Li Yuetian manage to pursue her?

Li Yuetian was completely confused by the phone call, but he dared not disobey his sister's orders, so he quickly washed up and went out.

When he got downstairs, Li Yuejiao's car was already waiting there. As soon as he opened the car door and got in, Li Yuejiao threw the information she had investigated in front of him and said angrily, "Look at this, the person you've been so concerned about has been insulted like this, and you're still sleeping at home!"

Li Yuetian was still a little sleepy, but when he saw the message, he was instantly wide awake.

His eyes blazed with fury, and his fists clenched so tightly they cracked. "Wang Hao... that beast! How dare he!"

Li Yuetian gritted his teeth, wishing he could go and settle accounts with Wang Hao immediately. "Sister, let's go and deal with him now!" Li Yuejiao started the car and said coldly, "Don't rush, let's go to Lin Yue's house first. I haven't told her the results of my investigation yet."

Soon, Li Yuejiao's car arrived at Lin Yue's building. Li Yuetian rushed out of the car and ran upstairs in a hurry. Li Yuejiao followed behind, quickening her pace as well.

Lin Yue opened the door and was surprised to see Li Yuetian, who looked concerned, and Li Yuejiao, who had a serious expression. "Sister? What brings you here? Yuetian, what's going on..."

Li Yuejiao handed the investigation results to Lin Yue and said, "Yueyue, this is the person who insulted you, Wang Hao."
