The road back to Villa No. 1 at Xingyu Mansion passed through a stretch with very little traffic. The moment Yun Zijin’s motorcade entered this section, their path was blocked by cars driving straight at them in the wrong lane.
The sudden braking left visible skid marks on the pavement.
From her seat, Yun Zijin had a clear view through the window as dozens of people poured out of the cars blocking their way. Every single one of them was armed.
Baseball bats, daggers, short knives...
They were only melee weapons, but the sight of so many armed men blocking the road was immediately and intensely intimidating.
"Miss, please wait in the car."
Yun Zijin nodded. ’Of course I’m not getting out to be a liability,’ she thought. ’I don’t have the kind of plot armor you see on TV, where the heroine can walk through a hail of bullets without a scratch.’
Qin Sitong nervously gripped Yun Zijin’s hand. "D-did they get the wrong people?"
Siting was sure she hadn’t offended anyone. And as for Yun Zijin, she knew her friend’s recent schedule—there was no way she could have made any enemies either.
’So what in the world is going on?’
"It’s just some people who don’t know their place," Yun Zijin said. "Don’t worry. Zero One and his men can handle them."
Yun Zijin’s words calmed Siting down slightly, but her eyes remained glued to the scene outside, praying that Zero One and his men wouldn’t get hurt.
A fight was about to erupt. Numerically, Zero One’s team was completely overwhelmed, but in terms of skill, the tables were turned.
They knew they lived in a society governed by the rule of law—Yun Zijin often had them watch legal programs to educate them—so Zero One and his men acted with great restraint.
One guy’s arm—broken.
Another’s leg—shattered by a kick.
That one over there—an arm dislocated.
And another—both legs popped out of their sockets.
...
Their main principle was simple: incapacitate with a single, decisive blow.
In less than two minutes, Zero One’s seven-man team had taken down all several dozen assailants, leaving them writhing and wailing on the ground.
Incapacitated, all they could do was cry out in pain.
"Alright, that’s enough. We’re calling the police."
Yun Zijin took out her phone and dialed the number for the local J Bureau precinct.
Siting watched Yun Zijin, who didn’t look scared at all. Even her call to the police was so natural and calm.
"Zero One and his men fought back... will they get in trouble?"
The standards for justifiable self-defense are very strict these days.
"There were so many of them, and the ground is littered with their weapons. Who knows, they might even have guns in their cars. Zero One and his men were merciful just breaking their bones."
If this weren’t a society governed by law, with Zero One’s skills, none of these men would be leaving here alive.
Siting nodded, thinking that what Yun Zijin said made sense.
"I should also call Lawyer Tang."
It’s best to have a professional handle this sort of thing.
Yun Zijin was confident that Lawyer Tang would get her justice.
Otherwise, there’d be no calming the fright she’d been given today.
The call was answered after just a few rings.
"Miss Yun?"
Yun Zijin hadn’t contacted him in a while. Tang Yu was a little surprised to get a sudden call from her.
"It’s me. Lawyer Tang, are you free to take on a case? The fee won’t be an issue."
Yun Zijin was always generous with her legal fees, a fact that even a top lawyer like Tang Yu couldn’t ignore.
Hearing Yun Zijin’s words, the officers’ expressions turned grim. "Rest assured, we’ll conduct a thorough inspection. However, we’ll need you and your party to come with us to the station to give a statement."
Yun Zijin agreed without hesitation.
"Get everyone rounded up! Let’s move out!"
They had expected a vicious fight. They’d brought plenty of backup and were armed, but they never imagined the caller would have the entire situation resolved by the time they arrived.
It felt like they were just here to go through the motions.
The Sielbe Tuatara and the Randomly Spend luxury van followed the police cars to the local J Bureau precinct. Soon, an officer came over to take their statements.
Just then, Tang Yu arrived from Dingsi Building with his assistant in tow.
Everyone at the Dijing J Bureau knew who Tang Yu was. Seeing him arrive, they were surprised. ’Has there been a major new case?’ they wondered. ’What could be big enough to bring *him* here?’
To their surprise, Tang Yu walked straight over to Yun Zijin, stopping about a yard away. "Miss Yun."
"Lawyer Tang, you’re here!" Seeing him, Yun Zijin’s eyes lit up. She immediately turned to the officer who was taking her statement. "Officer, my friend, my bodyguards, and I will now be represented by Lawyer Tang. You can direct all your questions to him."
"Ah! You’re... retaining Lawyer Tang for this?"
’The last thing we want to deal with is a lawyer,’ he thought. ’Every word you say can become a loophole for their defense.’
"That’s right. Lawyer Tang, let me walk you through what happened."
Yun Zijin quickly recounted the entire incident to Tang Yu—the ambush, how Zero One’s men bravely intervened, and how they had only resorted to breaking bones and dislocating limbs in self-defense.
Of course, they had a crucial piece of evidence: the dashcam footage from the Sielbe Tuatara that had been leading the motorcade.
Since Yun Zijin’s cars were all top-of-the-line models, their dashcams were naturally the best available. The footage was crystal clear, capturing the entire incident in high definition with absolutely no blur.
The video footage clearly showed the assailants’ vehicles blocking the road first, followed by the men getting out and advancing on them with various weapons. When zoomed in, you could even see the smug, provocative looks on their faces.
If that wasn’t premeditated, what is?
Furthermore, the footage showed that Zero One’s men had first tried to reason with the attackers, telling them to clear the way. It was only after negotiations failed and the other side made the first move that the bodyguards began to fight back, resulting in the assailants’ "total annihilation."
