Excessive ferocity due to caution

Police station.

Qutbi paced back and forth in the room, his palms sweating.

He had already learned that the military had arrived in V City.

He panicked.

Although Chutby didn't know much about the military, he still felt like he was facing a formidable enemy after learning of their arrival, as if a mountain was pressing down on his shoulders.

Not long after, the office door was suddenly pushed open.

The sudden sound startled Chutby.

He glanced sideways, staring intently at the doorway, his back completely soaked with sweat.

He breathed a sigh of relief after seeing that the person who came was Zhao Yi.

"You've finally arrived!"

"I've been waiting for you for ages!"

Zhao Yi slurped up a mouthful of soy milk:

"What's the panic?"

"I still have ten minutes before my shift starts."

Chutebi smiled wryly:

"Old Zhao!"

"Now is not the time to talk about these things!"

"The military is here!"

"I reckon they'll be coming to the police station to see me soon, and I'm afraid that if they ask me anything, I'll get nervous and let something slip!"

Zhao Yi looked him up and down carefully, then nodded and said:

"In your current state, it's indeed easy for you to let something slip."

Chutebi's face fell:

"What should we do then?"

"If the military finds out about this, I'll lose my head!"

Zhao Yi finished the warm soy milk in the cup in one gulp and replied:

"Or, shall I speak?"

Chutebi:

"That's good... but the problem is, how can I get you a voice in front of your military superiors?"

Zhao Yidao:

"It's very simple..."

After discussing it, the two of them soon received a call from the police station gatekeeper.

After hearing this, his face turned quite pale.

"They're here."

He said.

Chutby quickly put on his coat and hurried out the door, where he was greeted by the military commander, Commander Denby, and brought back to the police station office.

"Commander, this is just how things are here on a regular basis. I'm really sorry for the inadequacy of your hospitality. Please bear with me!"

"Old Zhao, quickly make the commander a cup of tea!"

"Chu Tebi said to Zhao Yi."

But Deng Bai refused.

"Alright, stop with all this nonsense."

"I just went to Boss Bai's house and had some tea."

Upon hearing this, Chutby suddenly felt a tightness in his spine.

"Commander, you...you've already been to Badman's house?"

Dengbai raised his head; though he was very old, his eyes were still piercing.

Why are you so nervous?

Chutby's expression looked like he had eaten a bitter melon:

"How could I not be nervous with your sudden arrival?"

Deng Bai said slowly:

As the saying goes, "If you have a clear conscience, you have nothing to fear..."

"You're so afraid of me, have you done something to offend the military?"

Chutebi hurriedly waved his hand:

"How is that possible?"

"Commander, please don't overthink it."

"This is because of the death of General Sata."

"Since the incident that night, the police haven't fully uncovered the truth, and the online discourse is wildly manipulating things, which really worries me!"

At this point, Chutby wiped his sweat and complained:

"The public is acting like they've gone mad, constantly demanding that the police get justice and arrest these capitalists, but the police don't have the resources to do that right now."

"If it really was Capitalist Man who killed Admiral Sata and the Hellfire Legion, then isn't the police department just asking for trouble by sending such a small force to arrest him?"

"I'm at my wit's end, whether I arrest them or not!"

His words were almost earnest.

The approach was almost identical to that of Whiteman.

In this dispute, he declared himself to be a victim.

Commonly known as playing the victim.

"Have you investigated Godfall Manor?"

Dengbai ignored Chutby's attempt to gain sympathy and asked instead.

Chutebi nodded, then pointed at Zhao Yi and said:

"The recent events were investigated by me and my assistant Zhao Yi. You can consult him about all related matters."

Deng Bai's gaze shifted to Zhao Yi.

Seeing this situation.

The weight that had been hanging over Chutby's heart finally lifted.

Finally, this troublesome ball was passed to Zhao Yi.

Compared to himself, he clearly trusted Zhao Yi's ability to adapt to changing circumstances far more.

Facing Deng Bai's questioning gaze, Zhao Yi slowly said:

"Commander, we have already investigated Godfall Manor."

"We found the bodies of many Hellfire Legion members in that location, and they are currently in the police station's freezer."

"Judging from the wounds on their bodies, these soldiers had experienced a brutal massacre before they died."

Deng Bai squinted.

"massacre?"

Zhao Yi's word immediately snapped Deng Bai out of his daze.

As a high-ranking officer in a certain district of the military, his understanding of the Hellfire Legion was naturally deeper than that of others.

Although none of the members of this unit have undergone super soldier modifications, they are already among the best of the best. In joint operations, they possess a high level of skill in both tactics and on-the-spot reactions.

To Deng Bai, the idea of ​​wiping out such a large army by one person was nothing short of a fantasy.

"Yes, Commander."

"Please forgive me for using the word 'massacre,' and it may offend the military, but it truly is the case!"

"If you need to verify what I'm saying, I can take these bodies out at any time; they are very well preserved."

"Some of them weren't even frozen; instead, I soaked them in preservatives."

Deng Bai was silent for a short while.

"Take me to see it."

Led by Zhao Yi, the group quickly arrived at the morgue.

This place has been cleaned up very well.

Zhao Yi lifted the white cloth covering the last few corpses.

Deng Bai stepped forward, and one of the sergeants behind him took out a device and scanned the faces of the corpses.

"They're from the Hellfire Legion."

The sergeant said this to Denbai.

Deng Bai stepped forward and carefully examined the wounds on the corpses.

His expression gradually turned serious.

Just as Zhao Yi said.

This was clearly a massacre, not a fight.

Because these soldiers only had fatal wounds.

In other words, they were all killed in one hit!

"This is what the bureau chief is worried about now."

Zhao Yi recounted the story in detail.

"Even the Hellfire Legion met such a tragic end. If the police department really encounters a capitalist, forget about arresting them; escaping from him would be a miracle!"

Deng Bai pondered for a moment and said:

"Were there any other discoveries?"

Zhao Yi replied:

"have."

"We extracted a strange, pale blue solution from the Godfall Manor."

"It was in a syringe, and it looked like it had been injected. There was only a small amount in it, but I still collected it and plan to have someone study its ingredients and effects in a few days."

Upon hearing about the strange, pale blue solution, a sharp killing intent immediately flashed deep within Deng Bai's eyes!

"Where is the pale blue solution you mentioned now?"

Deng Bai said calmly.

P.S.: First update

The second update will definitely be released before 10 PM.
