Chapter 622: Chapter 622: The Noisy Funeral Home
When Lin Fan entered the memorial hall of the funeral hwith the four women, he saw the portrait of County
Magistrate Luan hanging inside the mourning hall.
In the cold, deserted mourning hall, there was only a middle-aged woman in her forties sitting there with a blank
stare, and no one else around.
According to what Zhu Zhixuan had previously inquired, County Magistrate Luan’s parents had already been so
heartbroken that they had been hospitalized. The woman sitting here was Nie Yinghong, County Magistrate
Luan’s wife and the director of the office at the County Education Bureau.
"Sister-in-law, restrain your grief."
Lin Fan walked forward, bowed to Nie Yinghong, and his sudden appearance startled her. She quickly got up and
politely bowed back, "May | ask who you are?"
"I was originally the Deputy Mayor of Lotus Town and I’ve received much help from County Magistrate Luan in my
work. I've just been transferred to be the Deputy County Magistrate of Red Flag County. When the incident with
County Magistrate Luan happened, | was on business in the province, so | returned a bit late."
After Lin Fan finished speaking, he turned to Zhu Zhixuan and Bai Xue behind him and said, "Go buy some
wreaths to properly decorate the mourning hall."

"Don’t go... please don’t buy anything!"
Hearing this, Nie Yinghong hurriedly interjected, "You are Lin Fan, right? Lao Luan has mentioned you. Your
presence alone is already enough for Lao Luan’s spirit in heaven to be grateful, please don’t buy anything. And
you should leave soon to avoid unnecessary trouble."
"Sister-in-law, what are you talking about? What trouble could there be frommourning my old leader? Trust
me, just keep sitting there comfortably, and leave the rest to me."
Lin Fan looked at Nie Yinghong's haggard face, it was clear she was hiding worries.
"Lin Fan, you are from outside, you don’t understand the affairs of this county. | can’t explain it all in one or two
sentences. I've accepted your kind intentions, but you should leave quickly, otherwise it could really cause
trouble. There are many eyes watching from outside, and if people know you cto mourn Lao Luan, they will
definitely not let you off."
Nie Yinghong said with urgency.
"Sister-in-law, since | dared to come, | naturally have my plans. Rest assured, the things County Magistrate Luan
did for Red Flag County should not just be left unsettled like this. Be at ease, | will handle what comes next."
Lin Fan was not going to leave things unresolved and take off. Following his instructions, the four women quickly
brought wreaths, offerings, and various ceremonial money, adding a touch of warmth to the previously cold
mourning hall. Lin Fan then lit three sticks of incense, stood with the four women in front of the spiritual position.
"County Magistrate Luan, you once said that if something happened to you, | should not come. Although | don’t
know exactly what happened, | can guess that you wanted to change something. Rest assured, now that | am
back, | will turn Red Flag County upside down. You can go in peace."
After placing the three sticks of incense in the censer, Lin Fan also lit three cigarettes and placed them on the
altar, watching the spirals of bluish smoke disperse. Then he returned to Nie Yinghong, "Sister-in-law, now that
no one else is here, tellthe truth, have your children been taken control of?"
Hearing Lin Fan's question, Nie Yinghong was startled and then tears flowed like a dam bursting, and without
needing to answer, her reaction had already said everything.
"Hey, a corrupt official dies and still causes such a commotion, it’s all our hard-earned money being burned
here."
"Yeah, laying out so many wreaths to mourn a corrupt official, damn, it’s outrageous."
"Brothers, smash it all!"
Outside the mourning hall, a commotion arose as a dozen burly men covered in tattoos and smoking cigarettes
approached, cursing as they came, clearly looking for trouble. Lin Fan snorted coldly, as expected, trouble had
come.
"Da Xiaoshuang, just spare sbreath!"

As they rushed towards the wreaths, Lin Fan gestured to Da Xiaoshuang, who were already itching to start.
"Got it!"
Finally receiving the command to take action, Da Xiaoshuang charged like arrows released from their bows.
Facing the beautiful women charging at them, these burly men didn’t take them seriously, even leering and
taunting.
"Hey, there are beauties throwing themselves into our arms, chere, let big brother give you a good hug!"
"That body is damn fine, let big brother have a go!"
Just as the men were making lewd comments, Da Xiaoshuang had already reached them. Dealing with these
guys didn’t even require brass knuckles, just their bare fists were enough.
"Bang!"
With a punch to the neck of the leader, who weighed over 200 pounds, he immediately blacked out and fell to
the ground without even a scream. The people behind him didn’t even see what happened as Da Xiaoshuang
pounced like fierce tigers.
Seeing that half of the dozen men had been knocked down in a blink of an eye, Bai Xue grabbed Lin Fan’s arm in
disbelief, "Are these also your women...where did you find them?"
"You think too highly of me."
Lin Fan rolled his eyes at her, "You see how skilled they are. Do you think I'd dare to lay a finger on them?"
