Outside the Xihong Zoo, police cars slowly approached under the cover of night.
As the vehicles came to a halt, Lin Feng, with a serious expression, stepped out first.
"Captain Lin, these two cars belong to the poachers from earlier. They left some things behind in the vehicles."
"They really came here as you suspected."
A young officer who had inspected the scene beforehand excitedly told Lin Feng after examining two black Wranglers.
At this moment, his admiration for Lin Feng was beyond words.
"They were indeed after the Siberian Tiger King. I wonder if they succeeded."
"Captain Lin, I've inquired. The only person guarding this zoo right now is the director, Yang Lin. There's no other security force."
Just as Lin Feng was looking intently at the zoo behind the wall, another officer ran over and said.
"Is it the person who called the police earlier?"
"Yes, it's him. Let's act quickly. I'm afraid if we're late, he'll be in danger. These poachers don't care if they add another life to their count."
Hearing the officer's words, Lin Feng immediately nodded.
If innocent civilians were involved this time, their troubles would be immense.
"Team One, go in first. Be careful not to make too much noise, in case these poachers try to fight back desperately."
"Team Two, guard every corner of the park. We absolutely cannot let them escape this time."
"Move out!"
With Lin Feng's command, the officers immediately split into two groups. One group stayed outside the wall, while he led the other group over the wall and into the zoo.
At this moment, he could only silently pray for Yang Lin, praying that he wouldn't be captured by the poachers.
He dared not imagine what Yang Lin's fate would be if he fell into the hands of those poachers.
He had even prepared for the worst-case scenario.
However, as he led the officers to search slowly within the park, he subtly sensed something was amiss.
Just as the poachers had thought, the zoo was too quiet at the moment.
Judging by the poachers' modus operandi, they wouldn't have left without making a sound.
After all, their target this time was a terrifying Siberian Tiger King.
With this doubt in mind, Lin Feng soon saw a directional sign.
After confirming the direction of the tiger enclosure, he immediately led the group towards it.
As they got closer to the tiger enclosure, Lin Feng and the officers became increasingly cautious.
Although there were only seven poachers left, they were all armed. If a shootout ensued, they might not have an advantage in this environment.
However, just as they were prepared for a fierce battle, the scene they witnessed next completely stunned them.
In the open space in front of the tiger enclosure, figures were lying scattered everywhere.
Each of them was covered in numerous claw marks, and their clothes were torn to shreds.
If they hadn't moaned occasionally, one might have thought they were corpses.
"This..."
Even though they were still several meters away, Lin Feng immediately recognized these people. They were none other than the poachers who had escaped earlier.
But their current appearance made it difficult to associate them with poachers; they looked more like beggars feigning hardship on the street.
"Captain, what's going on? How did these poachers end up like this? Were they attacked by someone?"
The young officer who had been outside the gate asked with confusion.
Hearing his question, a wry smile appeared on Lin Feng's face.
"Do you think they look like they were attacked in their current state?"
"Uh... okay, they were probably attacked by animals."
As the two were talking, the streetlight nearby suddenly lit up.
The next second, Yang Lin appeared before the group of police officers.
"Police officers, it's me. Don't shoot, I'm the director of this zoo."
Hearing Yang Lin's voice, everyone breathed a long sigh of relief.
Of course, it wasn't just them who were relieved. Yang Lin, on the other side, also let out a sigh of relief when he saw Lin Feng and the others lower their guns.
He was afraid they would mistake him for an accomplice of the poachers and shoot him.
Seeing that Lin Feng and his men had let down their guard, he walked up to them.
"Police officers, I want to report a crime. These people broke into my zoo in the middle of the night to steal my animals and tried to kill me."
As he said this, he deliberately put on a frightened expression.
When Lin Feng and the others heard his words, they were speechless.
The poachers were beaten to this extent, and Yang Lin was only saying he wanted to report a crime now. Who would believe him?
Looking at the poachers groaning on the ground, and then at Yang Lin, who looked panicked and terrified, Lin Feng couldn't help but smile wryly.
"Alright Director Yang, let's not beat around the bush. You don't need to act like this."
"As long as you didn't kill these poachers, they got what they deserved, and we won't hold you accountable."
As soon as he finished speaking, Yang Lin quickly said with a serious expression:
"Police officers, you're wrong. How could I have beaten them?"
"They accidentally fell into the tiger enclosure and were severely beaten by my tigers. If I hadn't discovered them in time, they would have lost their lives."
"Is that really true?" Lin Feng looked at Yang Lin's explanation with disbelief.
"Of course! However, I was scared at the time, so I brought a few animals with me. It was too dark, and I don't know if they acted or not."
As he said this, Yang Lin put on an innocent expression.
"As someone who raises animals, it's quite reasonable for me to have a few small animals accompany me, right, police officers?"
"It is indeed reasonable, but you still have to come back with us to make a statement."
"Don't worry, we won't make things difficult for you. After all, you've contributed to society this time."
After saying this, Lin Feng signaled the other officers to arrest the seven poachers.
What happened next was as he said. Yang Lin was only taken to make a statement and was then allowed to go home.
However, just as Yang Lin stepped out of the police station, he suddenly seemed to remember something.
"By the way, police officers, I helped you crack such a large poaching ring and capture seven members of it. Are there any rewards?"
Lin Feng was taken aback by Yang Lin's sudden question, then nodded thoughtfully.
"I almost forgot if you hadn't mentioned it. There are indeed rewards, and they're not small."
"Two of the poachers you apprehended this time are S-class fugitives, and three are A-class fugitives. Their bounties will be awarded to you. Coupled with the crucial intelligence you provided, you should conservatively receive around 500,000 yuan."
As soon as Lin Feng finished speaking, Yang Lin was somewhat stunned.
