This time, I believe you…
I believe you!!!
Though as faint as a mosquito's hum, it struck Ye Yun's ears like a great bell, shaking him to the core.
At this moment, Ye Yun trembled with excitement!
This time she believed me!
This time she finally believed me!
With this feeling, Ye Yun found that even sleeping felt much sweeter.
Tonight was destined for sweet dreams!
…
On the other side, aboard the "Xian Shang Ren Jian" yacht that Ye Yun had once visited.
Those who had been secretly watching were silently removed by the police.
Even as a large contingent of police stormed the yacht and broke down door after door,
Some men and women were engaged in illicit acts.
There was a dedicated hall filled with Baccarat and Texas Hold'em tables, where scantily clad bunny girls flitted about.
Several gaunt and disoriented young men were huddled together, "skating."
Gambling, prostitution, and drugs – this underground den of iniquity was perfectly busted under the police's meticulous plan.
It was even smoother than everyone had anticipated.
During the operation, a few henchmen did try to resist, but armed with steel pipes, they were quickly subdued by the fully armed officers, offering no real resistance.
It could only be said that the combat effectiveness of regulars and irregulars was worlds apart.
"All of you, hands behind your heads, squat down!"
"Captain Zhang, we've cracked a major case today!"
"These scumbags, how many families have been shattered because of them? Damn it! I wish I could gun them all down right now!"
The officers, buoyed by the successful raid on "Xian Shang Ren Jian," felt their spirits lift considerably.
However, Zhang Jinzhong was still panting heavily.
With his physical condition, he wouldn't normally be this tired.
But earlier, charging at the front line, he had personally taken down five thugs.
Coupled with the sheer weight of his bulletproof vest, he was so exhausted he nearly threw up his last meal.
Now that it was over, he instinctively reached to remove his bulletproof vest.
But the moment his hand touched the vest…
Whatever was on his mind, Zhang Jinzhong found himself unable to pull it off.
Since it was all over, a normal walk wouldn't be significantly affected by the extra weight.
Yet, deep down, Zhang Jinzhong cursed Ye Yun to high heaven.
That damned charlatan!
Always spouting nonsense!
Did he know how much trouble he'd caused me at work?
No, I'll make this kid carry ten pounds and run five kilometers!
However, as Zhang Jinzhong and his team walked onto the deck, no one except Zhang Jinzhong noticed.
On the yacht, directly facing Zhang Jinzhong's direction, a dark gun barrel suddenly emerged!
A man with a scar on his face said grimly,
"Haha, if you catch me, I accept it. Since I'm going to die anyway, I'll take someone down with me!"
As he spoke.
Bang!
The brilliant muzzle flash from the dark ship stunned everyone.
"Ah!"
Zhang Jinzhong cried out in pain, hit by the bullet, and instantly collapsed.
"Captain Zhang!"
"Old Zhang!"
Countless officers cried out in dismay.
Bang, bang, bang!
Simultaneously.
On the other side, numerous armed officers opened fire, turning the scarred man into a sieve on the spot, his head exploding like a watermelon.
"Captain Zhang!"
"Captain Zhang!"
With the scarred man neutralized, everyone panicked and rushed towards Zhang Jinzhong.
They had all seen Zhang Jinzhong shot and fall!
"Pfft!"
Zhang Jinzhong clutched his chest with his right hand and spat out a mouthful of blood.
Although he wore a bulletproof vest, the powerful impact of the bullet still inflicted a serious injury.
He panted heavily, taking a long time to recover.
Foolishly carried onto a stretcher by his colleagues, Zhang Jinzhong was filled with shock.
I was shot?
I was actually shot?
If Wu Kexin hadn't insisted I wear this bulletproof vest.
If I hadn't inexplicably decided not to take it off at the last moment.
Then the outcome…
Zhang Jinzhong dared not imagine!
Even with the vest on, he was severely injured.
He, a detective for many years, knew all too well what would happen if a bullet pierced his heart?
Wu Kexin's face was also replaced with horror.
She had been dismissive of her father's words.
What extraordinary person, what foretold calamity.
Just a charlatan trying to deceive people!
But now, it had actually come true!
Who was that charlatan?
In an instant, Wu Kexin was filled with anticipation for that person.
…
On the other side, in an office building.
After answering a phone call, Wu Xinmin's lips curved upward, and he stopped speaking.
He walked over to the middle-aged man who was taking notes and said,
"Director Li, Xian Shang Ren Jian has been dismantled."
While everyone present was bewildered by Wu Xinmin's words.
Swish!
Instantly, Li Kaifu's expression changed.
No wonder Wu Xinmin had been acting so out of character today, stalling him.
So he had arranged for people to take action against Xian Shang Ren Jian.
"What Xian Shang Ren Jian? What are you talking about, Mr. Wu?"
Calming himself, Li Kaifu forced a laugh.
"Oh? Didn't I mention it? Tonight, Captain Zhang led the team to raid the underground den of iniquity in Jinling, Xian Shang Ren Jian. I never imagined that such a den of vice existed beneath Jinling," Wu Xinmin said calmly.
"Isn't that a good thing? Captain Zhang has eliminated a scourge for the people; he should be commended!" Li Kaifu replied.
"Stop pretending. We found evidence of your collusion with them at Xian Shang Ren Jian. Your son-in-law's Haixin Group is truly formidable, daring to do such a thing! Arrest him!"
At his command, someone immediately rushed in and took Li Kaifu away.
In just one hour.
The entire upper echelon of Jinling society exploded!
Countless phones were dialed frantically.
Zhang Jinzhong led his team in dismantling the underground den of iniquity, Xian Shang Ren Jian.
Haixin Group was the protective umbrella behind Xian Shang Ren Jian!
Li Kaifu was also arrested!
The news spread like wildfire.
The scale of the involvement and the severity of the crimes made it an absolute sensation across the nation!
Even the People's Daily had turned its attention to the matter!
However, the instigator of all this, Ye Yun, was currently lost in a beautiful dream.
A bit of drool even appeared at the corner of his mouth.
In his dream, he was with Meng Yao and Keke, leisurely flying kites by the Jinling River…
Whoosh.
The damned ringtone of his mobile phone shattered Ye Yun's perfect dream.
"Sister Wang, why are you calling so late at night?"
His dream broken, Ye Yun instinctively spoke with a hint of annoyance.
While he didn't have morning rage, the scene in his dream was something he had longed for for over forty years. How could he not be upset?
"Mr. Ye, something big has happened, something huge!"
In the phone, Wang Meiling's voice sounded as if she were terrified.
"What is it?"
Ye Yun sat up from the sofa and took a sip of water.
"Mr. Ye, just now, Zhang Jinzhong led a team to raid Xian Shang Ren Jian. We never expected that Xian Shang Ren Jian would be a den of vice, combining gambling, prostitution, and drugs! It's a real underground lair!"
"And the protective umbrella for Xian Shang Ren Jian was precisely Haixin Group! That Li family member and Li Haicang have now been arrested. All the high-ranking officials of Haixin, except for Li Zhaohui, have been arrested without exception!" Wang Meiling said in panic.
"Is that all?"
Ye Yun asked calmly.
However, inwardly, he was already ecstatic.
