Name: My father is Zhao Dehan, and I hope he will become a dragon!

In the back alley of the "Blues" nightclub in the east of Luzhou City.

At five in the morning, the sky was gray.

Qi Tonghai stood at the alley entrance, a cigarette dangling from his lips, then kicked over a trash can, shouting deafeningly, "Where did that bitch Tang Xiaoli run off to?!"

One of the henchmen shrank back and said, "Brother Hai, we've asked in every internet cafe, train station, and small hotel in town, but nobody's seen her... Could she have left town?"

"What a load of crap!"

Qi Tonghai spat, his eyes flashing with malice: "Her father just died, and her brother is dead too. Where could she be? She's definitely hiding at someone she knows!"

At this point, Qi Tonghai exhaled a sharp puff of smoke and coldly ordered, "Investigate her—her high school classmates, relatives, and the shops where she used to work—don't miss a single one!"

He took out his phone and dialed Qi Tongjiang: "Any news from your end?"

A woman's giggles and the clinking of bottles came from the other end of the phone.

"Oh, the ocean!"

Qi Tongjiang laughed drunkenly, "What's the rush? A little girl, what can she do? Catch her, lock her in the warehouse, starve her for three days, and see if she still runs away!"

"All you ever do is play around!" Qi Tonghai roared.

"What's wrong with playing?"

Qi Tongjiang laughed heartily, "I just called two newbies, they're really fresh! Want to come too? I guarantee you'll have a blast until dawn!"

"Fuck you!" Qi Tonghai hung up the phone, too lazy to curse anymore.

In his eyes, Tang Xiaoli was like a rabbit with a broken leg, unable to run far.

Once we catch her, we'll make sure she knows—

What does it mean to be worse off than dead?

Skin her alive and then arrange a few more perverted clients for her.

Qi Tonghai gritted his teeth.

At the same moment, Qi Tongjiang was lying in the jacuzzi of his own villa, with two heavily made-up women massaging his shoulders and back.

"Brother Jiang, you're amazing!"

A woman's eyes were alluring.

"No exaggeration, your brother can take on ten men in one night!" Qi Tongjiang laughed heartily.

"Ten in one night? You're kidding!"

"boast?"

Qi Tongjiang took a swig of beer, beaming with pride, "Ask Dahai, back in the black kiln, I single-handedly took down three foremen! Now? Tsk tsk, in this 'gentle embrace,' don't worry, I guarantee you'll be crying your eyes out!"

At this point, Qi Tongjiang chuckled, "Hehe, let me tell you, the Director of the Public Security Bureau is my own brother. Who dares to touch me?"

Before he could finish speaking, the door was pushed open.

Qi Tonghai entered wearing a trench coat, followed by two bodyguards.

"You're really something!"

Qi Tonghai sneered, "Tang Xiaoli ran away, and you're here having fun?"

Qi Tongjiang waved his hand: "What's there to be afraid of? Chen Guodong has already taken the money; the case has been suppressed for a long time. Even if she appeals to the capital, no one will believe her!"

Qi Tonghai stared at him for a few seconds, then suddenly laughed, "Okay, you're right. Come on, have a drink with me to celebrate closing another deal!"

The two clinked glasses, spilling the wine.

The woman chuckled and moved closer, the room filled with lewdness and arrogance.

They didn't know—

Just three kilometers away,

120 armed police special forces members have quietly completed the encirclement.

The joint investigation team from the provincial discipline inspection commission and the procuratorate is checking the final list inside the vehicle, and their names have been heavily circled in red on the arrest warrants.

6:50 a.m.

The city of Lüzhou was still shrouded in a thin mist.

The iron gates of the "Blues" nightclub were tightly closed, and a security guard leaned against the wall, yawning.

Suddenly, several black SUVs silently glided to the street corner. The doors opened, and fully armed police officers filed out, their tactical flashlights sweeping across the walls as they moved with the lightness of cats.

At seven o'clock sharp, the sky was just beginning to lighten, and a thin mist hung in the air.

Group 1 – Warehouse in the back alley of the "Blues" nightclub

The iron gate was rusty, and a foul smell of cheap perfume mixed with sweat seeped out from the cracks.

"Break in!" the commander ordered.

The ram slammed into the lock cylinder, and the iron door blasted open!

The smoke grenade rolled in first, and white smoke instantly filled the air.

"Armed Police! Kneel down! Cover your heads!"

Screams erupted inside the warehouse.

Seven or eight disheveled young women huddled on a filthy mattress, some wrapped only in bath towels. In a corner, two shivering girls were locked in an iron cage, their wrists bleeding from the rope binding them.

"Don't shoot! We were forced to!" a girl cried out.

Special operations team members quickly secured the scene, cut the ropes, and handed over blankets.

The team leader whispered into the communicator:

"Confirmed to be an illegal detention and forced prostitution den. A large amount of cash, ledgers, and surveillance hard drives were found... Requesting technical support for evidence collection."

Group Two – Qi Tongjiang Villa

Outside the garden wall, a sniper had already locked onto the second-floor master bedroom window.

The commando team scaled the low wall and silently pressed themselves against both sides of the French windows.

"Three, two, one—Break!"

The riot shield shattered the glass, and a stun grenade was thrown in!

Amidst a blinding flash and loud bang, Qi Tongjiang sprang from the bed, his eyes glazed with drunkenness: "Who?! I've called the police!"

Before he could finish speaking, two special forces soldiers pounced on the bed and pressed him face down on the mattress.

"Damn it! Do you know who I am?!" Qi Tongjiang roared, struggling. "My brother is the Director of the Public Security Bureau! You're all dead!"

He suddenly elbowed the teammate behind him in the abdomen, managed to break free halfway, and then grabbed a bedside lamp and smashed it at the other person's helmet!

"court death!"

An armed police officer used a backhand grappling move, twisting his arm behind his back and pressing his knee hard against his spine.

Qi Tongjiang screamed as his face was pressed into the carpet, blood seeping into the fibers.

"Move again, and I'll break all four of your limbs!"

The cold muzzle of the gun pressed against the back of his neck, and he finally went limp, his underwear slipped down, and he trembled all over.

The two women who were providing sexual services screamed and shrank into the bathroom, where they were led out by a policewoman.

The search team found 200,000 yuan in cash, multiple bank cards, condoms, and unexpectedly, ice in the safe...

Group Three – Qi Tonghai's Residence

This is a detached house by the river with high walls and an infrared alarm system.

But the armed police had already cut off the power and scaled the wall like ghosts.

Inside the master bedroom, Qi Tonghai was holding an unconscious girl—she had needle marks on her wrists, clearly indicating that she had been injected with a sedative.

The door was silently blown up by a directional explosive!

"Don't move! Hands behind your head!"

Qi Tonghai reacted extremely quickly!

He rolled over to the head of the bed, his right hand reaching straight under the pillow—a flash of cold light, and a dagger was drawn!

"I'll kill you all!" he roared as he leaped up, his blade aimed straight for the throat of the nearest team member!

"Bang!"

With a muffled thud, the riot control fork precisely locked his wrist, which was holding the knife.

The next second, a stun gun was pressed against his lower back—

A 5-volt high voltage instantly penetrated his entire body!

Qi Tonghai convulsed, his eyes bulged, and the dagger clattered to the ground.

But he didn't fall! With brute force, he turned and slammed into the window, roaring, "My brother won't let you get away with this—"

"Snap!"

The armed police officer delivered a side kick that struck him squarely behind the knee, causing his old left leg injury to rupture, and he screamed in agony as he knelt on the ground.

The two men pounced on him, and the steel handcuffs snapped shut on his wrists. Another man used restraint straps to tie his legs.

"Qi Tonghai! You are suspected of multiple serious crimes, including intentional homicide, rape, illegal detention, and bribery!"

The cadre in charge bent down and said, word by word, "Your brother can't save you, and neither can the provincial party committee."

Qi Tonghai's face was covered in blood, but he still grinned maliciously: "Bullshit! Just wait until my brother finds out..."

Before he could finish speaking, a black cloth was smothered over his head, and he was dragged away.

In the morning light, his bare back was covered in mud and grime, revealing a blue dragon tattoo.

Like a venomous snake with its spine severed.

At 7:20, the three-way simultaneous operation was completed.

At the same time, Chen Guodong was watering flowers on his balcony when his phone was suddenly confiscated.

The discipline inspection official displayed the detention order: "Chen Guodong, you are suspected of serious violations of discipline and law. Please cooperate with the investigation."

His face was deathly pale, and the showerhead fell to the ground, water flowing over the tiles like a silent tear.

At 7:15, all communication signals in Luzhou were temporarily controlled.

Three escort vehicles drove out of the city and headed straight for the detention center of the Jingzhou Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection.

Inside the car, Qi Tonghai was still roaring, "Let me out! I'm calling my brother!"

No one responded.
