I Get A Random New Occupation Every Week

Chapter 2511: Chapter 2512: The Narrow Gate

“Let her go?”

Sambalo snorted coldly. “You’re my hostage. You have no right to negotiate with me.”

“I know the Halke Rangers have already made a name for themselves. But do you think that’s enough to take on the whole world?” Lin Yi looked at Sambalo and said:

“Or do you believe that the Mitsui Group, with its history of over a hundred years, is merely decoration?”

“I’m not afraid of your threats.”

Lin Yi shrugged. “Let me be frank with you. No matter which one of us dies, the Halke Rangers will disappear from this world.”

“Die?”

Sambalo sneered dismissively.

“My unwavering faith makes me fearless in the face of death.”

Lin Yi felt exasperated. These bastards, emboldened by their faith, genuinely didn’t fear death.

“I recall a passage in the New Testament Luke: God tells mankind to walk through the narrow gate. The wide gate leads to destruction—it is the realm of dancing with demons. Conversely, the narrow gate, though seldom traveled, leads to eternal life.”

After hearing Lin Yi’s words, the expressions of the four shifted, deeply shaken, and their faith began to waver.

But soon, the uncertainty faded from Sambalo’s face.

“Attempting to undermine our faith won’t work. Even walking toward death is part of our pursuit.”

Lin Yi looked at them calmly.

“You believe that by having faith in God, you gain redemption and eternal life. Don’t you find yourselves overly simplistic?”

“What do you mean?” Sambalo asked sternly, his face tense.

“Life and death are but illusions. What you pursue is also merely superficial. That contradicts your belief system,” Lin Yi continued:

“There’s an old saying in China that suits you well: ‘All appearances are fleeting illusions; seeing beyond appearances is the true revelation.’ What you can see and touch cannot possibly be truth or faith; otherwise, you’d be no different from Jesus.”

With that, Lin Yi smiled faintly at the three of them. “Remember, God says: Walk through the narrow gate.”

Sambalo exchanged looks with the people behind him.

At this moment, their hearts had all been shaken.

After a few seconds of thought, Sambalo looked at Lin Yi and said:

“We can let her go, but not you.”

Lin Yi shrugged. “No problem. That’s exactly what I meant.”

“No way!”

Caie Mitsui shouted passionately:

“I absolutely won’t leave by myself!”

Caie Mitsui had already prepared herself mentally for death.

She had long decided that even if she died, she would die alongside Lin Yi.

Lin Yi turned his head to look at Caie Mitsui.

“Go quickly. If I go with them, Japan’s officials won’t trouble you anymore. This is the best solution.”

Although the current situation wasn’t what Lin Yi wanted, it still had a positive side.

Previously, Japan’s government used Caie Mitsui to threaten him because he was in a vulnerable position.

Thus, threats could serve their purpose.

But now, since he was taken by the Halke Rangers, threatening Caie Mitsui would be useless.

Furthermore, given her status, he was certain the Japanese government wouldn’t dare bother her anymore.

“But…”

“No buts, just leave quickly!”

After saying that, Lin Yi winked at her. In that moment, Caie Mitsui realized Lin Yi might have another plan.

If she insisted on staying, she might ruin things for him.

“Understood. I’ll leave now.”

Still glancing back repeatedly, Caie Mitsui got into the car. Her emotions at this moment were particularly complex.

She wasn’t sure if the decision she just made was right or wrong.

But she understood clearly that if Lin Yi had another plan and she stubbornly stayed, she would become a hindrance, placing him in danger.

Just as it had been during this time together—had she not been with him, he might have had an easier time and possibly already found a way back.

For these reasons, Caie Mitsui chose to leave.

The engine roared to life as Caie Mitsui drove away. Lin Yi quietly let out a sigh of relief.

Now that she was gone, he could act without restraint.

As for what would come next, whether he’d find a chance to escape, he didn’t know. Everything would depend on fate.

“Come with us. I hope you won’t try anything funny,” Sambalo said.

“The Halke Rangers truly live up to their name. Even with all my disguises, you managed to recognize me,” Lin Yi said nonchalantly.

“No one acts without leaving traces. If you’re careful enough, you’ll always find clues.”

“Let’s go. I’ve got nothing more to say.”

“I like people like you. Makes things a lot easier for us.”
