Chapter 286 Rescue

  Xue Haiwuya abruptly stood up, his face solemn, but not panicked. He issued orders in an organized manner, "Notify Teams Three and Four to provide immediate support, and notify our colleagues at the Public Security Bureau to provide immediate support."

  The female staff member replied at top speed, "We've already notified them, but the fastest they can arrive is half an hour."

  Xue Haiwuya continued, "Notify nearby Public Security Bureaus to send public security officers for support."

  The female staff member nodded, looking anxious. "We're following the procedures you've deployed, but as you know, ordinary public security officers aren't very effective. They can only delay them."

  Bullets still pose a threat to Lingjing Xingzhe (Spirit Realm Wanderers) below Level 3, but the evil practitioners on the border don't fight alone. They have underworld forces under their command, and those forces have more firepower than the public security officers.

  Xue Haiwuya said in a deep voice, "We've deployed everything we can. Now, we can only leave it to fate... Go out and tell them to carry on as usual."

  The female staff member bit her lip, nodded, and left.

  Zhang Yuanqing glanced at her back, then looked at Xue Haiwuya and asked, "What happened?"

  Xue Haiwuya had regained his composure and explained in a deep voice, "A few days ago, we received information from an informant that a group of drug traffickers from abroad would be smuggling drugs in soon to trade with local underworld forces. We and the local Public Security Bureau have been monitoring them for three days and were planning to make arrests tonight."

  "The Zhuiduzhe Zhishi (Drug Chaser Enforcer) must have run into an ambush or encountered a strong enemy. The other side has means of blocking signals."

  Hearing this, the Queen frowned. "That's a bit dangerous."

  Xue Haiwuya smiled wryly. "It's a common occurrence. You get used to it. It's like this on the border. Every operation carries the risk of death. But what can we do? We can't just sit and watch them smuggle in batches of drugs and traffic people out of the country."

  After speaking, he stood up. "Sorry, I need to go out and reassure people. Do you have accommodations? If not, I'll have someone arrange it for you, but you can only stay in the Public Security Bureau dormitory. Our funds are limited, and we can't afford to arrange high-end hotels."

  The Third Team Captain's mind was no longer on this. He said it was normal, but normal didn't mean not urgent. Now that his brothers at the branch were in danger, he felt restless.

  Zhang Yuanqing smiled. "Your Nanming City doesn't have any decent five-star hotels anyway."

  He put away his smile. "Compile a summary of the event information for me, and tell me the arrest address. If there's still time..."

  He took out his phone, glanced at it, "I might be able to save your Enforcer."

  Xue Haiwuya stopped in his tracks, stunned for a moment, then his face lit up with joy. "It would be best if you could help. Wait a moment, I'll go get the information right away."

  These colleagues from Songhai were also a formidable force. This plain-looking captain was assigned to pursue a wanted criminal across provinces, so he must be very capable.

  Xue Haiwuya guessed he was a Level 3 Scout or a Wood Sprite.

  He immediately strode out of the reception room. A few seconds later, he returned, bringing back a stack of documents.

  Xue Haiwuya was no longer as calm as before, and said quickly, "The leaders and key members of the drug trafficking group are all here, and the Zhuiduzhe Zhishi's identity information is also here. The address is Sancha Village, Chongshui County. I'll have someone drive you over there now. Saving lives is like fighting a fire. If you gentlemen don't have anything urgent, let's set off now."

  He handed the documents to Zhang Yuanqing and bowed. "I'm counting on you!"

  There's even the Enforcer's information. Hmm, this is to prevent us from mistaking them for the enemy and hurting our teammate. How thoughtful. Zhang Yuanqing took the documents and politely declined, "We have our own car."

  After saying that, he led Xie Lingxi and the others away, walked out of the Public Security Bureau compound, and the group got into the car.

  The car started, sped away, and Zhang Yuanqing took out his phone, opened the map software, and said, "I'm assigning you a task. Go explore Nanming City and find out what this city is like. See if it's really that chaotic. I'm going to rescue someone."

  Xie Lingxi nodded vigorously. "Be careful, Brother."

  "They're the ones who should be careful." Zhang Yuanqing snapped his fingers and disappeared in a flash of starlight.

  Third floor office area.

  Xue Haiwuya stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, watching the car carrying the colleagues from the Songhai branch leave the Public Security Bureau compound. The female staff member who had reported the sudden situation earlier stood beside him, looking worried. "Are they going to be okay? They're new here."

  The pot-bellied Xue Haiwuya shook his head. "The Level 3 captains from Songhai are all elites. They're very strong. Of course, we can't rely entirely on them. The enemy that can threaten the Drug Chaser Enforcer must be a Saint."

  At this point, he sighed. "Let's do our best and leave the rest to fate. I suspect there's something wrong with the information the informant gave us. We might be getting fished."

  The female staff member was taken aback. "Why didn't you remind them?"

  "They're not newbies," Xue Haiwuya said with a bitter smile. "I didn't dare to remind them. I was afraid they wouldn't go."

  The female staff member also smiled wryly.

  Sancha Village, Chongshui County.

  Sancha Village is a well-known drug trafficking village in Dingjing Lake. Because it's close to the border, it's become a bridgehead for drug trafficking gangs.

  Every household hides drugs, and every family has drugs. The young and strong people in the village have gathered into a gang, the kind with guns.

  The drug trafficking group uses Sancha Village as a bridgehead to spread the drugs to the entire Gui Province, and even the whole country.

  In the early 1990s, the authorities sent troops to encircle and suppress the village, eradicate the underworld forces, and confiscate the drugs.

  Then, with economic recovery and a crackdown on drug trafficking, if not completely wiped out, at least most people had new livelihoods.

  But the remnants of evil remained. There will always be people who take shortcuts, where money comes quickly, the threshold is low, and all they have to give up is morality and trampling the law.

  Wang Defa in the village is such a person. In his early years, he was a petty thief, never doing anything legitimate.

  The few acres of land at home have been barren for years, he doesn't want to work, he doesn't want to farm. Later, he became addicted to drugs, and drifted further and further in his circle, becoming a member of the drug trafficking group.

  He built a pig farm on the edge of the village, but this was just a front. In secret, it was a bridgehead for the drug trafficking group, serving as a trading and base point.

  The battle took place in the pig farm. Seven or eight cars riddled with bullet holes were parked outside the pig farm, some with burn marks on their bodies.

  Bloody corpses lay beside the cars, warm blood gurgling from the bullet holes. They were official practitioners and public security officers from the Nanming branch.

  A total of nine Lingjing Xingzhe (Spirit Realm Wanderers) and two public security officers participated in this operation, but within a few minutes, half of them had been sacrificed in the gun battle.

  What really killed them was Gu poison. As officials who often dealt with the Ling Neng Hui (Spirit Power Society), law enforcement officers carried gas masks during missions.

  The Gu poison of the Extraordinary stage could no longer threaten them, but today they encountered an unexpected situation. There was a psychic among the drug trafficking group.

  The Gu poison he released was colorless and odorless, and it invaded immediately upon contact with the skin. It wasn't fatal, but it made people feel weak all over.

  At this time, the surviving public security officers and official practitioners used the cars as cover, struggling to survive. The state of poisoning had not worsened, because the psychic was dealing with the Drug Chaser Enforcer.

  "Xiao Wang, has the signal been restored?" the team leader shouted.

  "No." The young man named Xiao Wang was wearing a gas mask, hiding behind the hood of another car, operating a computer.

  "What about the satellite phone?"

  "The satellite phone is useless either. Those bastards used unconventional methods, probably props. We can't contact the branch and can't report the enemy's situation." Xiao Wang cursed, "We should have been betrayed by the informant. This transaction is a trap. The Ling Neng Hui (Spirit Power Society) wants to get rid of the Drug Chaser Enforcer."

  "It's useless even if we report it. Our branch doesn't have any Saints anymore. Unless we ask the neighboring Honglin City for help, but it's too late." The captain glanced at the east side of the pig farm and said, "You and the brothers stay here and guard. I'll go help the Enforcer."

  "Help your ass!" Xiao Wang roared, "Are you going to die? What can you do in a Saint-level battle? When the poison wears off, retreat immediately."

  In the officialdom, subordinates rarely talk to superiors like this, but in the Nanming City branch, everyone is a brother who has gone through life and death together. The rule in Nanming City is that you must always remember that preserving strength is the top priority.

  The border city has chaotic security, and evil practitioners from both inside and outside the country gather. The branch's treatment isn't good either, so official practitioners are unwilling to come.

  A shortage of manpower is a headache for every branch on the border. In this situation, it's better to have one death than a group death.

  If one Enforcer dies, the headquarters can still assign a new Enforcer in a short time, but if a group of official practitioners die, then the branch will be paralyzed.

  It's difficult for the headquarters to arrange a large number of official practitioners to fill the gap in a short time.

  This is a choice that must be made.
