After ten years undercover, I'm giving up.

bang bang-

Ma Zhichao didn't give Wu Shaoxiong any time to react, and threw two more punches at him.

Both blows landed precisely near Wu Shaoxiong's eye sockets.

Before long, Wu Sir's eyes became visibly swollen and dark.

With his still-bleeding nose, he looked as disheveled as if he had just been dragged into an alley and beaten up.

This time, Wu Shaoxiong was so angry that he almost lost all reason.

[Wu Shaoxiong's emotional value +20.]

He suddenly drew his sidearm from his waist, the dark muzzle pointing directly at Ma Zhichao.

"Don't move!"

"Put your hands up!"

Ma Zhichao looked at him with disdain, his tone full of contempt: "Seriously, officer? You can't beat them with your fists, so you start pulling out your weapon?"

Wu Shaoxiong gritted his teeth and roared, "Hands up!"

"Alright, alright, let's raise it then."

Ma Zhichao gave Tian Yangsheng and Tian Yangsi a look.

The two understood each other and did not act rashly. They simply stood aside and continued to stare at Wu Shaoxiong.

Soon, Ma Zhichao's hands were handcuffed again.

Wu Shaoxiong sneered, finally regaining some semblance of composure: "Come with me to the police station!"

Ma Zhichao readily agreed: "No problem."

After saying that, he turned to Tian Yangsi and instructed, "Go and fetch a lawyer."

"Tell my lawyer that I was violently treated by police officers in a public place and has now been forcibly taken away. I need immediate legal assistance."

Tian Yangsi nodded: "Understood, boss."

Wu Shaoxiong: "..."

He had originally planned to teach this scoundrel a lesson after bringing him back to the police station.

But now that the lawyers are coming along, many of the methods are no longer effective.

grass.

This is infuriating!

Wu Shaoxiong forcibly suppressed his anger and forced Ma Zhichao to leave the Western restaurant.

They arrived at the roadside and got into the police car.

After the car door closed.

Wu Shaoxiong took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.

Since the same methods used to deal with suspects can't be used against Ma Zhichao, let's try a different approach.

Using superiors to suppress subordinates can also keep this kid completely under control.

After a moment, Wu Shaoxiong, with a stern face and a low voice, said, "Ma Zhichao, police officer number 325361."

Ma Zhichao's expression changed drastically in an instant.

How do you know this?

When Wu Shaoxiong saw that he had finally changed his expression, he felt much better.

The truth has come out.

I am your new boss.

Are you scared now?

Why don't you just lower your head and obey?

With a calm yet compassionate demeanor, Wu Shaoxiong slowly said, "Ma Zhichao, Superintendent Huang Zhicheng has died in the line of duty."

"And I was the head of the Major Crimes Unit at Yau Tsim Police Station who took over the work he hadn't finished."

"I've retrieved your undercover file from the computer Superintendent Wong left behind."

"In other words, starting today, I am the person directly in charge of you."

After hearing this, Ma Zhichao suddenly grabbed Wu Shaoxiong's hand, his whole body trembling with excitement.

"Very good!"

"I've finally found my people!"

"Inspector Wu, you have no idea how panicked I've been these past few days since Superintendent Wong died!"

"I've always worried that no one will ever know my true identity again, and that I'll be stuck rotten in the gang for the rest of my life!"

"It's so good that you've shown up!"

"I can finally go back to the police force!"

He spoke with heartfelt sincerity, his hands gripping Wu Shaoxiong tightly, his voice trembling.

Wu Shaoxiong: "???"

I don't know why.

He felt that something was off about the scene.

But seeing Ma Zhichao's excited expression, as if he "couldn't wait to put his uniform back on right now," Wu Shaoxiong couldn't help but reassess the situation.

It seems that Ma Zhichao is not entirely untamable.

As long as we seize on his weakness of wanting to return to the police force, then we can control him at will.

"Ma Zhichao!"

"SIR!"

Despite having two bruises around his eyes and his nose still bleeding, Wu Shaoxiong maintained his superior's authority and said, "Don't worry, as long as Han Chen's case is successfully resolved, I will definitely arrange for you to rejoin the team."

"Really? That's great!"

Ma Zhichao immediately looked so excited he was about to cry.

Wu Shaoxiong felt somewhat relieved and then asked, "Let's get down to business. What exactly happened to Han Chen? Why did he suddenly disappear?"

Ma Zhichao shook his head: "I don't know either. That night everyone was at a nightclub, and I was holding a big foreign woman, ready to have a deep conversation about life experiences..."

Wu Shaoxiong: "..."

Who the hell wants to hear you talk about these kinds of details?

Hey!

But to be honest...

I'm so damn envious.

In order to get a promotion, he doesn't even dare to play too high-profile when he's having fun.

Ma Zhichao didn't continue discussing the foreign woman part and quickly steered the conversation back on track: "Later, my underling suddenly ran in and said that Brother Chen had been kidnapped."

"Upon hearing this, several of our trusted confidants all led men out to search."

"We've been busy all night, but we still haven't found a single clue."

Wu Shaoxiong frowned and pressed, "Do you think Han Chen has anything to do with Superintendent Huang Zhicheng's death?"

"Most likely."

Ma Zhichao thought for a moment and replied, "Superintendent Huang has been watching Han Chen for so long, Han Chen already hates him to the bone. This is no secret in the underworld."

Next, Wu Shaoxiong asked several more questions.

Ma Zhichao's account basically aligns with Chen Yongren's.

This gave Wu Shaoxiong an increasingly headache.

There is still no real breakthrough in the case.

As long as Han Chen remains undiscovered, the great credit he deserves will never be his.

Ring ring ring~~~

Just then, Ma Zhichao's phone rang.

Caller ID: Sha Qiang.

The moment the call connected, Sha Qiang's trembling voice came through: "Ah Chao, something terrible has happened! Brother Chen is dead!"

"What?! Brother Chen is dead?!"

Ma Zhichao immediately showed a shocked expression.

Wu Shaoxiong, who was standing next to him, also widened his eyes in surprise: "What? Han Chen is dead?!"

Ma Zhichao immediately pressed, "What exactly happened?"

Sha Qiang said in a flustered tone, "Brother Chao, someone just delivered a videotape to my place."

"In the video, Brother Chen was thrown into the sea by several masked men!"

"Not only did I receive it, but Dilu and Aren received theirs too!"

Ma Zhichao's face instantly darkened: "This is troublesome."

Sha Qiang's voice was almost crying: "Yes, this time we're really in deep trouble..."

"Also, I just checked, and it seems that all the money and properties under Brother Chen's name have been sold off."

Ma Zhichao was even more incredulous: "Impossible!"

Sha Qiang said urgently, "I called you because I wanted to tell you that I'm also preparing to run away."

"I've already booked a 7UP boat. We're heading to Yellowstone Pier now, and we'll take a boat from there."

"That's all for now. Hope we can meet again someday."

Ma Zhichao asked, "To Thailand?"

Sha Qiang immediately replied, "I wouldn't dare go!"

……

In fact.

At this point, Sha Qiang had already taken a sum of money and was hurrying towards the shallow waters.

He planned to board a ship there and escape.

As for 7UP and Huangshi Wharf...

It's all fabricated and misleading.

His name is Sha Qiang.

But that doesn't mean he's really stupid.

In a life-or-death situation, isn't it normal to use fake news to mislead others and then betray your brothers?

……

Ma Zhichao's side.

Not long after Sha Qiang hung up the phone, Di Lu called in.

In the end, it's pretty much the same old story.

Why do I need to go to a certain dock?

They're planning to flee somewhere to avoid trouble.

Of course, Ma Zhichao didn't believe a single word Dilu said.

……

Inside the police car.

Wu Shaoxiong was completely numb from listening to it.

What the hell is going on here?
