Police officer Chen Shu.

The four arrived at the camp where Min Lai was being held captive.

The camp was actually located in an abandoned logging camp downstream of the mountain stream. A wooden house leaned crookedly against the riverbank, and two soldiers stood at the door. When they saw Company Commander Ma coming, they stood at attention and saluted at the same time, their movements quite swift.

Judging from his expression and actions, Company Commander Ma's leadership skills are quite good, and he seems to treat his soldiers with genuine trust; otherwise, no one would follow him to do this dangerous job. In northern Myanmar, betraying one's superior is basically a death sentence.

Company Commander Ma nodded, opened the wooden door, and went inside.

The room was dimly lit. Minlai was tied to a chair. When he heard someone come in, he looked up and glanced at Company Commander Ma, who had come in first, and then at Chen Shu and the others who followed him in.

"Ma Guofeng, I'll fuck your mother!" Min Lai's voice was a little hoarse, but she still emphasized each word precisely. "You eat our food, drink our water, and then you collude with the Chinese to ransack our house! You beast, you bastard who will have your whole family die!"

Company Commander Ma waved his hands repeatedly, his expression sincere, and said, "Brother, this is all a misunderstanding, let me explain!"

Standing to the side, Chen Shu heard Company Commander Ma's statement that he dared not offend anyone, which made him even more certain that the other party was still in a state of wavering between right and wrong.

"Misunderstanding my ass! You son of a bitch! I don't know which bastard's belt came undone and exposed you!" Min Lai spoke fluent Mandarin, which showed that he had been to Kunming quite often. He spoke with a slight Yunnan accent and in a very authentic Mandarin style.

Company Commander Ma continued to explain, "Brother, you've really misunderstood."

Minlai continued to hurl insults, cursing Company Commander Ma, then Chen Shu, then Chen Chuan, and then Xiao Wang, one after another, starting by cursing their ancestors for eighteen generations, all in a very distinctly Chinese style.

Chen Shu and Chen Chuan didn't care, but Xiao Wang lowered his eyes, not daring to look at Min Lai. This action, on the contrary, attracted Min Lai's attention. Knowing that this was a novice, she scolded him even more happily and took better care of this shy little brother, throwing all sorts of random magical attacks at him.

Company Commander Ma walked over to Chen Shu and sighed softly, "Commander, what should we do? I have a feeling this guy won't help us contact Ang Suoling. If this drags on, Ang Suoling will definitely find out."

Chen Shu patted Company Commander Ma on the shoulder and comforted him, "It's alright, I'll handle this. Don't worry, I can manage." After saying that, Chen Shu called out to Chen Chuan and Xiao Wang, "You two go out first, I'll talk to this guy."

Chen Chuan pulled Xiao Wang and walked out. When they passed Company Commander Ma, they saw that he didn't move and seemed to want to stay in the room. Chen Chuan's eyes lit up and he happily put his arm around the man's shoulder.

"Old Ma, let me tell you something good to do."

"Officer Chen, what's the good news?"

"The money has already been transferred to your wife's account."

"Really? Didn't you say you'd only transfer the money after everything was finished?"

"Hey, I've changed my mind. Come on, let me show you my transaction history. Guess how much money I transferred this time? Won't your wife be thrilled if she sees this bank notification when she wakes up this morning?"

"I...I guess so?"

"..."

Before leaving, Company Commander Ma glanced at Chen Shu's back with some unease, but in the end, Chen Chuan pulled him outside with a grin.

Only Chen Shu and Min Lai remained in the room.

Min Lai, tied to a chair, smiled and tilted her head, giving Chen Shu a curious once-over. Then she scoffed, "What, you've sent everyone away? Are you here to discuss a business deal with me?"

Chen Shu didn't reply. He pulled over a broken chair next to him and sat down opposite Min Lai. The two were very close, less than an arm's length apart.

Chen Shu crossed his arms and said frankly, "You're very smart. You know that Company Commander Ma wouldn't dare to kill you."

Minlai glanced towards the door and said disdainfully, "I know him all too well. He's the kind of person who wouldn't even go all in when gambling, do you think he'd dare to kill someone? Betraying the general is such a serious matter, wouldn't he dare not leave himself a way out?"

Chen Shu nodded: "You're absolutely right."

Minlai laughed, then turned the tables and said, "You're a really interesting cop. You could just come here to enforce the law, arrest a few scapegoats, and go back to enjoy your retirement. Why are you still here? Do you think you have too much time on your hands?"

Chen Shu placed his hands on his knees and said calmly, "Twenty-three people, including two managers, twenty members, and one persecuted civilian, is indeed a very impressive achievement."

Min Lai raised her eyebrows and laughed, "You take them away to complete your mission, and we can continue our business. Everyone benefits. But you, you take them away one minute and then sneak them back the next. Isn't that against the rules?"

"Rules?" Chen Shu repeated the word softly, chuckled, and said sarcastically, "The rules you're referring to for doing business properly don't include killing four of us Chinese policemen and burying us on the hill behind the house, do they?"

Min Lai paused for a moment, then retorted forcefully, "Those four policemen were killed by thugs from the companies in the industrial park. It has nothing to do with us. If you want to arrest people, go arrest them! Yes, their boss's name is Wu Shengli. Go find him!"

Remembering Zhu Yiba's enemy, Zoroson, the business manager of the online betting company, Chen Shu nodded very naturally: "Yes, that's what I meant."

Min Lai was stunned. He hadn't expected the other person to be so frank, and he didn't know how to answer next.

Chen Shu pulled his chair forward a little, getting closer to Min Lai.

He stared into Min Lai's eyes and repeated, "You're right. Company Commander Ma wouldn't dare kill you. If you live, he still has a way out; if you die, he'll have to fight Ang Suo Ling to the death. But have you thought about it? I, the commander of the joint law enforcement team, need Ma Guofeng to fight your general to the death. I need him to have no way out."

Min-rae's smile vanished instantly.

Chen Shu pulled out the Type 64 pistol he had taken from Wang Yan from his waist. This pistol was taken by Wang Yan from the armory of the Mandalay Special Police Force. It was in very poor condition, but it was an unclaimed gun.

Click.

Chen Shu pulled back the slide of his Type 64 pistol, chambered a round smoothly, and pointed the muzzle at Min Lai.

"Minlai, I have to bring the four Chinese police officers who sacrificed their lives back to China. I also need to arrest the thugs and boss of the online gambling company. And one of my brothers is still missing in your park, his fate unknown. Guess where I'll get stuck with all this? Will it be stuck in Commander Ma's escape route? Or will it be stuck in your life?"

Gurgle.

Minlai licked her chapped lips, her Adam's apple bobbing, and said with difficulty, "You're a Chinese police officer, you have no right to kill me! I'm going to protest to your embassy! Wait! That's right! Ma Guofeng won't let you kill me!"

Chen Shu stood up, bent over, lowered his head, and his eyes were less than ten centimeters away from Min Lai's eyes.

His voice was low but clear: "You're sitting here right now, clutching Ma Guofeng's hesitation, thinking you won't die. But I want to tell you, I don't need a hesitant Company Commander Ma; I need a Company Commander Ma who cuts off all escape routes. You're smart enough to understand what I mean."

As soon as she finished speaking, a dark gun barrel was pressed against Min Lai's forehead, ice-cold.

Rumble!

Min-rae felt like the sky was falling.

I like Policeman Chen Shu.
