When Meng Zi arrived at the Peace-keeping Bureau, he only saw a dim yellow light inside.

After he walked in, he saw someone slumped over a table as he slept.

Meng Zi knocked on the table, and the other party woke up upon hearing the noise. When he recognized the visitor as Meng Zi, that guy was a little surprised. free webnov el.com

“Uncle Meng, why are you here?” There were quite a number of people from the Tiger Base in the Peace-keeping Bureau and they were acquainted with Meng Zi.

“Aren’t there supposed to be two people on duty at night? How come I only see you all alone?”

That person rubbed his eyes and stood up as he said, “There are two of us. Originally, it was that fellow Dali who was on duty. However, his mother wasn’t feeling well, so Zhou Xing took over. Zhou Xing has gone on patrol.”

As he spoke, he turned to look at the hourglass beside him and was a little surprised. “Huh? It’s already past midnight. Why isn’t Zhou Xing back yet?”

Meng Zi frowned. “I hoped he didn’t encounter trouble. I’ll go with you to look for him.”

The other party nodded. He then grabbed a lantern and followed Meng Zi out of the Peace-keeping Bureau.

The street was deserted, and there was not one single pedestrian. The two of them searched around but did not find any trace of Zhou Xing.

Meng Zi suddenly stopped and squatted down with a grave expression to check the bloodstains on the ground.

The bloodstains had not dried yet. Evidently, they had appeared not long ago.

“Blood? Why is there so much blood on the ground?”

Meng Zi stood up and said, “You take a look around here. I’ll follow the trail of bloodstains.”

“Alright.”

Meng Zi followed the trail of bloodstains all the way to the outside of the brothel. The bloody trail disappeared at the back door of the brothel.

At this juncture, the brothel was at its liveliest. When he saw that there was no one around, he carefully climbed in over the back door.

After avoiding the odd jobs workers in the back courtyard, he continued to search for bloodstains.

Suddenly, someone walked toward his direction from the front. Meng Zi turned around to evade him but almost bumped into someone.

He frowned and covered her mouth before she could speak.

“Don’t say anything. I won’t hurt you.”

The woman nodded fearfully.

Soon, the odd jobs worker walked past the two of them.

Meng Zi was about to knock her unconscious when he saw the bloodstains on her dress.

“Where did the bloodstains on your body come from?”

The woman’s face turned pale and she did not respond for a long time.

“Speak!”

“It… it belonged to someone else. It’s… it’s not mine. He… he was killed… He’s from the Peace-keeping Bureau. I don’t know anything… Sob, sob, sob…”

Meng Zi became apprehensive when he heard it was someone from the Peace-keeping Bureau. freewebnove(l)

“What did you say? Say it again.”

The woman trembled as she stammered, “I… I ran into someone from the Peace-keeping Bureau when I was running away earlier tonight. I begged him to save me, but those henchmen caught up and attacked him. He… he was killed. He was killed by those people…”

“What did you say?”

“I… I’m telling the truth. They even hid the… the corpse… They hid it in the brothel.”

“Which room did they hide it?”

The woman shook her head. “I… I don’t know. I was also captured by them. They… they only let me off after I promised not to run away again.”

Meng Zi frowned and then knocked the woman unconscious straightaway. Thereafter, he carefully hid the woman among the flowerbeds. If no one looked closely, she would not be discovered at all.

Meng Zi continued to search around the brothel, but he still couldn’t find any sign of Zhou Xing after going through the whole place.

His gaze fell on Long Ba’s house behind the brothel.

Long Ba lived at the back. If what the woman said was true, then the body might be hidden at the back.

Meng Zi sneaked into Long Ba’s courtyard to search, but he did not notice a figure behind him.

Meanwhile, a figure carrying a large sack came to a private house.

Inside the house, Cling Qing heard the noise and immediately opened the door and came out.

That person carried the sack into Qing Qing’s house.

“I’ve brought you the corpse. Everything will proceed according to plan.” Lu Yi threw the sack on the ground. “I’ll go check on the situation over there. I’ll leave the rest to you.”

Qing Qing nodded with a grim expression. “I understand.”

Lu Yi turned around to leave, but she suddenly thought of something and turned back to look at Qing Qing smugly. “Do you know who’s the person on the ground?”

Qing Qing froze momentarily. She squatted down and opened the sack. Using the dim light of the candle, she got a good look at the person on the ground.

Her eyes quivered, and her expression was indescribably unsightly. She quickly lowered her head to hide the emotions on her face. When she raised her head again, there was no longer any strange expression on her face.

“He’s from the Peace-keeping Bureau. You didn’t kill the wrong guy.”

Lu Yi stared at her with her two icy eyes. It was as if she wanted to see a different expression on Qing Qing’s face, but there was none. Qing Qing did not show any emotion.

“Deal with it expeditiously.”

“Mm-hrnm.”

Lu Yi left after giving her instructions.

After making sure that Lu Yi had left, Qing Qing locked the door behind her and walked up to Zhou Xing. She reached out and checked below his nose, and her eyes suddenly turned red-rimmed.

“Big Brother Zhou… Big Brother Zhou… I… I caused your death.” Qing Qing picked up the corpse from the ground with an anguished expression.

Meng Zi had not been able to locate Zhou Xing after sneaking into Long Ba’s courtyard. He thought for a moment and then turned to Long Ba’s main house.

Long Ba’s house was brightly lit, but unlike in the past, there were no beautiful women around him tonight.

There was only him and his two trusted aides in the house.

“Don’t worry, Area Chief. We’ve already taken care of the corpse. We guarantee that no one will discover anything suspicious. We’ve also captured that woman, but there seems to be a misunderstanding. That woman doesn’t seem to know anything.”

Long Ba had lost a lot of weight after being seriously injured. His original robe seemed much looser on his body.

At this moment, his expression was very glum. The scars on his body seemed to be silently reminding him of the humiliation he had suffered during this period of time.

Ever since he was punished by Su Ying, he found out that some of his subordinates had thoughts of disloyalty towards him and even openly challenged him.

He wanted to make an example of one subordinate as a warning to others. To his consternation, those creatures who did not know what was good for them actually used Su Ying to threaten him!

Long Ba had been in the northern wilderness for many years, but his subordinates had never been so bold before. Their insubordination was all thanks to Su Ying.

Why did she have to come back when she could be happily playing the role of Empress of the Chu State?

Su Ying’s return also affected his business adversely.

His earnings had dropped, and he was beaten up as well. Long Ba simply couldn’t swallow this insult.

“Have you guys prepared everything I told you to prepare?”

“Don’t worry, Area Chief. Everything has been prepared. We can take action at any time.”

“Good…”

Before Long Ba could finish his sentence, there was a slight noise above his head.

The people in the room got a shock. The trusted aide turned around and ran out.

Meng Zi looked at the broken roof tiles under his feet and thought of Zhou Xing, whose life and death were unknown. He did not leave but leaped down in front of Long Ba’s house.

When the henchmen saw Meng Zi, they all went forward to surround him.

“I want to see Long Ba.”

The henchmen exchanged looks but had no intention of moving aside.

Long Ba said in a deep voice after hearing the commotion outside, “Let him in.”

Upon hearing this, the henchmen stepped aside to let Meng Zi in.

Meng Zi had just walked in when the door behind him slammed shut..
