“It's the Second Master's car. Where is the Second Master?”
Several members of the Qi family got out of their vehicles and inspected the overturned car, completely ignoring the security officers around them.
They quickly followed the trail of bodies into the alley. When they saw the headless corpse, they couldn't help but shudder.
“Se—Second Master?”
“Not necessarily. He's just wearing the Second Master's clothes. Without a head, who knows if it's really him?”
As they spoke, they tried to move closer, but the captain blocked their path.
It was only then that they seemed to notice the officers. They shouted with fury, “Get lost!”
The captain narrowed his eyes. “Who are you people?”
The man reached out and tugged at the Qi family crest on his chest. “Are you nearsighted or just blind? Can't you see?”
“Now get the hell out of the way. We’re taking the body. If you delay us, you’ll suffer the consequences!”
Even facing the Security Bureau, these people didn't show the slightest hint of panic.
Because they were members of the Qi family!
In Wang City, the name Qi family carried far more weight than the Security Bureau.
The residents of Wang City might not know who the mayor was, but everyone knew the head of the Qi family.
This was because nearly half of the households here relied on the Qi family for their livelihoods.
The captain looked displeased. Just then, Wang Dong’s cold voice crackled through his phone.
“Bring all the bodies back!”
“Bureau Chief, but...”
“Bring them back!”
“Yes, sir!”
The captain's response was decisive. In the next second, he drew his gun and pressed it against the forehead of the man in front of him.
“Security Bureau business. Move!”
The man's heart hammered against his ribs, while the other members of the Qi family gathered around.
Seeing his comrades, the man’s courage returned.
“Do you have any idea what you’re doing? You’re provoking the Qi family! This is Wang City. Do you really think wearing that Security Bureau uniform makes you safe?”
The surrounding security officers also drew their pistols. One officer even blocked the Qi family’s retreat.
“Captain, several members of the Qi family are already dead here. If a few more die, no one will even notice, right?”
Hearing this, the Qi family members finally grew tense.
However, the pride of the Qi family prevented them from backing down.
Click.
The captain flipped the safety off his pistol, his voice chillingly cold. “Move!”
“I am a member of the Qi family!”
Bang!
The captain fired directly into the man’s thigh. The man collapsed, clutching his leg in agony.
“Take the bodies back! If anyone tries to stop you, turn them into bodies too!”
“Yes, sir!”
The security officers’ voices rang out like a great bell, each of them feeling a surge of satisfaction.
Weren't they just dogs for the Qi family?
Did they eat so many scraps that they actually started thinking they were human?
The Security Bureau members loaded the bodies into their vehicles and drove away. The Qi family members watched them with burning eyes. Once the officers were gone, the man who had been shot ground his teeth.
“Back to the Qi family. Tell the Eldest Master what happened here!”
“Yes!”
...
The Qi family estate.
“You’re saying that headless corpse was wearing Old Second’s clothes?”
“Yes. We tried to bring him back, but the Security Bureau wouldn't hand him over. They even shot me in the leg!”
The man lay on a stretcher, his thigh wrapped in gauze that was already soaked with blood.
“And the others?”
“All dead.”
“Confirmed they were our people?”
“Confirmed!”
Bang!
Qi Hai slammed his hand onto the table, his eyes so bloodshot they looked like they could devour someone.
“Old Third!”
“Brother.”
Mr. Qi stepped forward, his expression equally grim.
“Take my calling card to the Security Bureau. Demand they return the bodies!”
“Understood!”
Qi Jiang looked up and headed for the door.
The words he had just heard made his heart ache. It hadn't even been a few days since Old Fourth died, and now something had happened to his second brother too?
His only hope now was that the body wasn't actually his second brother’s.
“Old Third!”
Qi Jiang had only taken a few steps when Qi Hai called out to him again.
“Brother.”
Qi Jiang turned back, thinking his brother had changed his mind, but Qi Hai’s eyes were crimson as he spoke.
“Take men with you.”
“If they won't give them back, take them by force!”
“Yes!”
Qi Jiang signaled with his hand, and several security personnel followed him out.
Qi Hai slumped weakly into his chair, images of his brothers when they were children flashing through his mind.
Whether it was Old Fourth or Old Second, they were his own flesh and blood, brothers he had raised himself. Now, they were leaving him one after another.
“Don't be in such a hurry to reincarnate. Wait for your big brother. Watch as I personally avenge you.”
...
The Security Bureau.
“Bureau Chief, the autopsy report is out.”
The captain respectfully handed the report to Wang Dong, his eyes full of admiration.
Wang Dong took the report and began reading without looking up. “You opened fire?”
“Captain, you know how those people are. If I hadn't fired, I wouldn't have been able to scare them off.”
“Where did you hit him?”
“The leg.”
“Next time, aim for the head!”
“Huh?”
“‘Huh’ my ass. If you hit his leg, won't he hold a grudge? What will you do when he comes for revenge? Next time you encounter them, just shoot them in the head. That way, he won't have anywhere to seek revenge from!”
The captain felt a warmth in his heart. Then, he saw Wang Dong frown.
“The driver died from a gunshot. Looking at the wound, it should be a .38 caliber, likely a revolver.”
“Four bodyguards. Two died from stabs to the back. There’s no residual transcendent power in the wounds. Based on the shape, it should be a large zhanmadao, and an extremely sharp one at that.”
“The other two had their throats slit. Based on the wounds, it was likely a very thin, fast blade. The last one had his flesh shaved off before his neck was snapped.”
“In other words, the opponents are likely a group. At least three people, using firearms, a zhanmadao, and a small knife respectively.”
“Based on the positions of the bodies at the scene, they likely killed the driver of the lead car first, causing the vehicle to lose control, hit a fire hydrant, and flip over.”
“The driver and bodyguards from the second car protected the headless corpse while fleeing, but they were picked off one by one until the victim was cornered in the alley and decapitated.”
“Mm, this indeed looks like the methods of the Killer pathway.”
“It seems that group from the Shadow Lotus Church has arrived in our Wang City.”
While he was analyzing the case, there was a sudden knock on his office door.
“Come in!”
Creak.
Uncle Huang pushed the door open, his expression grim. “Bureau Chief, over a hundred people from the Qi family have arrived. They’ve surrounded the Security Bureau.”
“Hmm?”
For a moment, Wang Dong didn't react, even wondering if he had misheard.
“Bureau Chief, the Qi family is here and they’ve surrounded the Security Bureau. They’ve even blocked the gates with cars. We can't get out now.”
“Hahahaha!”
Wang Dong suddenly burst into laughter, and his laughter grew louder and louder.
“Interesting. This is so damn interesting.”
“Surrounding my Security Bureau? Is this still Wang City!”
“Old Huang!”
“Sir!”
“Notify the brothers. Load the magazines. Live rounds for everyone!”
“Yes, sir!”
Uncle Huang responded and rushed out with his walkie-talkie.
In less than a minute, every member of the Security Bureau was armed with live ammunition.
Creak.
The gates of the Security Bureau were pushed open. As soon as Qi Jiang stepped inside, Wang Dong kicked him right back out.
“Criminals are storming the Security Bureau! Open fire!!!”
