Police Chief's Anti-Organized Crime Storm

Upon hearing that Li Shuwen had not yet found the person, Wang Dalong became completely enraged: "If you can't find the person, none of you need to come back. Figure it out yourselves."

Li Shuwen was startled and quickly hung up the phone. He then resumed searching the village. Finally, someone with sharp eyes spotted Lao Liang's hiding place.

"There he is, there he is, there he is, Secretary Li, there he is! I see him, there he is!"

Old Liang was terrified. He scrambled out of the bushes and ran for his life. Li Shuwen was overjoyed at the sight and quickly waved his hand, "Chase him! Chase him!" In an instant, a jumble of footsteps and shouts rang out at the village entrance as more than a dozen people began to chase after Old Liang.

Old Liang ran for his life, with more than a dozen thugs chasing him relentlessly. He glanced back every now and then; his pursuers were all strong, burly young men. If they caught up, he knew he was in deep trouble. Thinking this, he reached into his bag, pulled out some money, and threw it into the air. Behind him, the thugs' eyes widened in shock. One of them exclaimed, "Money! Money! So much money! So much money! Quick, pick it up!"

"Screw you! Go after him! If he gets away, I'll kill you all! Now get him! If you catch him, I'll give you whatever you want! Go after him!"

Everyone else was startled, and the few who had just stopped got up again and chased after him. By this time, Lao Liang had already run into a grove of trees ahead.

Upon seeing this, Li Shuwen became anxious and fired a shot forward. Bang... The sound of the shotgun rang out clearly in the fields, startling everyone. Li Shuwen himself was also startled and didn't dare to fire again. Although it was just a shotgun, firing too many shots would definitely attract the attention of the police.

"Hurry up and chase after him! What are you all standing around for?" Li Shuwen shouted again, and more than a dozen thugs began to chase after Lao Liang desperately.

Old Liang was out of breath from running, but he didn't dare stop. Seeing that the woods were just ahead, he quickly sprinted into them.

Bang... Li Shuwen suddenly panicked and fired another shot, but Lao Liang's figure disappeared into the woods in an instant.

"Quick, chase after them." A dozen or so people quickly arrived at the edge of the forest, but no one dared to go in. They all looked at Li Shuwen, who had a gloomy expression. Who knew if there was an ambush in the forest? Now it seemed that the guy surnamed Liang was no good either. He didn't want all that money. Was he going to fight them to the death?

"Secretary Li, what do we do now?" One of the thugs looked at Li Shuwen, who weighed the shotgun in his hand, his eyes blazing with anger. This old Liang was really something. It seemed that he had been deceived by him before. He looked honest and simple, but in reality, he was very cunning.

"Go into the woods. Remember, catch him. Don't let him get away."

"What if he resists?"

"Arrest him!" Li Shuwen slowly uttered the second half of the sentence: "Life or death is irrelevant. If anything happens, I'll take responsibility."

Upon hearing this, the dozen or so thugs' hearts pounded. They finally understood why Li Shuwen had summoned them tonight: to kill them and silence them?!

The thugs' hearts pounded. They looked at each other, not daring to move. This was peacetime; killing someone meant being forced to work on a sewing machine, and besides, they might end up being punished.

The family has to pay for the bullets; this isn't exactly a profitable business.

"What, none of you want to work anymore?" Li Shuwen's cold voice rang out, startling all of the dozen or so people. One of them chuckled dryly. They were thugs, not assassins; murder was a real crime.

"Secretary Li, who is this Lao Liang? What do you think of our situation...?"

"Alright, enough nonsense. If anyone utters a single word about what happened tonight, don't blame me, surnamed Li, for being ruthless. This guy was specifically requested by Brother Long, and you're all working for him. If this guy surnamed Liang gets out, not only will I be in trouble, but all of you will be. And Brother Long will all have to go to jail, understand?"

Upon hearing this, the others were startled and quickly nodded in agreement. They knew that Brother Long had treated them poorly, and many of them had been following him for more than a year or two. They knew that what goes around comes around.

"So today, this guy surnamed Liang absolutely cannot fall into the hands of the police. You all know how much risk Brother Long has taken to earn money to support everyone. Now, it's time for us to repay Brother Long. Everyone, what are you waiting for? Go in and fuck him, find him. If he's alive, hand him over to me. If he's dead, bury him on the spot."

Upon hearing this, the thugs' hearts pounded wildly again. Only now did they fully understand what they had come here for tonight.

"Damn it, let's do it. Brother Long has always treated us well. If it weren't for Brother Long paying for it, my mom would be dead long ago. Come on, count me in." A burly man was the first to run in. Once someone took the lead, others followed. A second, a third, and more than a dozen people all ran in.

Li Shuwen was satisfied and followed, but when they went in, they were dumbfounded. It was pitch black inside, so they used their mobile phones as lights to search for Lao Liang.

Lin Ying felt somewhat tired. She thought of Gao Lan, Sun Ping, Lu Xiujuan, and also, that old Liang. Lu Xiujuan absolutely couldn't be in any more trouble. Thinking of this, she picked up the phone and dialed. Hearing that Lu Xiujuan was safe, she felt a little relieved. But just as she finished the call, a familiar number called in.

"What's wrong? Why are you calling me all of a sudden?" Lin Ying's voice was gentler than ever before.

"Did something happen to you in the mountains?" A strong voice came from the phone.

"I have indeed encountered a lot of things. How did you know? It's so late... Did Xie Zhijun tell you? Did you have him spy on me?" Lin Ying was somewhat dissatisfied, and the person on the other end of the phone fell silent.

"You know, he's my soldier. I let him follow you because I'm afraid you sometimes don't care about your own safety. If someone touches my woman, do you think I can sit idly by?" A chilling voice came from the phone.

"Don't do anything reckless. Local authorities are not like the military. They are just some criminal gangs, and we can't use the military's power."

"I am a soldier. It is my duty to protect my country and defend the dignity of my nation and people. If I can't even protect my own woman, how can I talk about protecting my country?!"

"Who's your woman?" Lin Ying was very dissatisfied with the domineering manner of the man on the phone.

"You'd better wait until I get here before you say it to my face." With that, she slammed the phone down.

Lin Ying was stunned. This man was really something—domineering and unreasonable. She really didn't know what she had seen in him back then!

Oh no, he's coming to the mountains.
