Chapter 624: Betraying a Teammate
"What?"
Huo Ben’s expression turned serious upon hearing Lin Fan’s words.
"The death of County Magistrate Luan had already alarmed the province. Although it has been determined to be depression due to work pressure, that’s just an excuse for outsiders. The province has already stationed a special action team in Red Flag County, and their primary target is to catch you. They even stopped my car this morning and asked me to join."
Lin Fan took a drag of his cigarette, slowly exhaled, and looked straight into Huo Ben’s eyes.
"County Magistrate Lin, telling me such confidential information, have you considered the consequences? If I really get caught and expose you, you will be in trouble."
Huo Ben looked at Lin Fan with a slight smile, while he just shrugged, "That’s why there’s no recording of this conversation. Whether you leave or stay, consider it yourself. With this information, it should be enough for a release, especially since County Magistrate Luan is already dead. It’s only human to let his children come back for the last rites. With this favor, your sister-in-law can’t escape either."
"County Magistrate Lin, what a great pleasure it is, good for me I don’t have a wife!"
Huo Ben suddenly burst into loud laughter, creating a scene that left bystanders puzzled. If they didn’t know better, they would think they were old friends reunited.
