Divine Doctor and His CEO Wife Chapter 166 Jinyi Bureau

Hearing this, Chen Xiao pursed his lips. "You great families are really complicated."

Qin Lan sneered. "It can’t be helped. Where there’s conflict, there’s a dark side. If it weren’t for avenging my mother, I would never return to a filthy place like the Qin Family."

Chen Xiao reassured her, "Don’t worry. With today’s advanced technology, the culprits who brazenly broke into a hotel to commit murder and caused such a commotion will definitely leave a trail."

Qin Lan nodded.

The two found a place to stay. To ensure Qin Lan’s safety, Chen Xiao didn’t leave her side all night.

It wasn’t until the next morning that he called Li Buyi to ask about any leads.

Li Buyi’s brow was tightly furrowed. "Mr. Chen, we’ve been following up on this matter as well, but we haven’t found any clues! The deceased was an important figure, so I’m under a lot of pressure. Now, the Jinyi Bureau of Zhonghai has begun to intervene. The Jinyi Bureau is no ordinary departnt. They’ve always been extrely aggressive in their thods. If they intervene in Yuncheng City’s jurisdiction, I’m afraid it will cause a bloodbath!"

"They’re moving that fast?" Chen Xiao frowned, not expecting that the Ling Family’s second son would directly mobilize the power of the Jinyi Bureau to investigate in Yuncheng City.

Li Buyi revealed, "People like us can, at best, only investigate ordinary cases. But this ti, judging from the evidence, the perpetrator is a Martial Dao expert. They were extrely professional and left no clues behind. We’re helpless against such elusive figures from the martial world. In the end, this can only be handled by special organizations like Dragon Soul or the Jinyi Bureau."

Chen Xiao thanked him and hung up the phone.

SWISH— A dense flurry of footsteps suddenly approached from outside. Then, the main door was forcibly smashed open.

A large group of n in brocade uniforms, their expressions stern, stord into the building with murderous intent. The man in the lead stood with his hands clasped behind his back, his face a mask of cold arrogance and contempt.

"The Jinyi Bureau!" Qin Lan narrowed her eyes, a flicker of apprehension in her gaze.

Chen Xiao also stared at them coldly.

"On Chief Ling’s orders, you two are connected to a homicide case. We have been specifically sent to apprehend you! Anyone who disobeys will be killed without rcy!" the leader barked, his hawk-like eyes sweeping over them.

"The investigation isn’t even over yet. What right do you have to arrest us?!" Qin Lan questioned icily.

"The only right we need is being the Jinyi Bureau!" The man sneered and produced a Token. "Everyone is required to cooperate with our investigation. Those who fail to comply will be treated as heretics!"

"A complete disregard for the law!" Qin Lan’s voice was frigid. "The Ling Family’s second son is far too presumptuous."

"Insolent!" the man snapped. "Is Chief Ling soone you can insult? I think you’re tired of living!"

"No matter how much authority the Jinyi Bureau has, you must still follow the rules!" Qin Lan stated, enunciating every word. "If Ling Chong dares to arrest without evidence, the Qin Family won’t let him off easily!"

Xue Dagui sneered. "My apologies, but Chief Ling has already notified the Qin Family, and they have agreed to cooperate with the investigation. Are you still deluding yourself into thinking the Qin Family will protect you? How naive and ridiculous."

"Third Miss Qin, I’d advise you to be smart and confess everything once you’re in the Jinyi Bureau. You’ll suffer less physical pain that way!"

At his words, Qin Lan’s face turned white. "My grandfather would never agree to such a condition. Who in the Qin Family did you notify?"

"The Qin Family’s Third Master Qin!"

"Third Master Qin said that Young Master Ling ca to Yuncheng City with you and suddenly t with an accident. Furthermore, you do have a motive. To clear your na, you must cooperate fully with the investigation. So, Miss Qin, are you still going to stubbornly resist?"

A chill washed over Qin Lan. This entire situation had been orchestrated by her third uncle and Ling Chong. Her grandfather didn’t even know what had happened yet. If she was really taken away, could she possibly co out in one piece? The family had previously arranged her marriage into the Ling Family to ease the conflict between them. Now that Ling Zhenghao was dead, she, the chess piece, was about to be discarded. Her third uncle would definitely not miss this opportunity to crush her. After all, if Qin Cang wanted to rise to power, it was to his advantage to have one less competitor. Although she didn’t have many die-hard loyalists in the clan, her capabilities had recently beco evident. If she were given more ti to develop, she would undoubtedly beco a threat to those vying for the family’s power! If the Jinyi Bureau took her away... whether she could co out alive would be a serious question.

"Take them away."

Xue Dagui waved his hand, and the Jinyi Bureau mbers sward in like a tide, surrounding the pair. The dark muzzles of their guns appeared in their hands, all aid at Chen Xiao and Qin Lan.

The atmosphere turned lethal.

Taking in the situation, Qin Lan clenched her teeth. "I’ll go with you. This has nothing to do with him. Let him go."

"The Head of the Ling Family said no one gets away," Xue Dagui sneered. "This guy is a suspect, too. We’ll drag him in and beat so answers out of him first."

Qin Lan couldn’t help but laugh coldly. "Ling Liao has nothing to do with the Jinyi Bureau, does he? From your tone, you’d think he was your master. It makes wonder, are you truly a man of the Jinyi Bureau, or just a dog of the Ling Family?!"

"Insolence!" Xue Dagui erupted in fury. "Daring to insult a mber of the Jinyi Bureau adds another charge to your cris!"

"Lower your guns," Chen Xiao said, his eyelids lifting slightly. "I hate having guns pointed at ."

Hearing this, Xue Dagui’s laugh grew even wilder. He pressed his gun directly against Chen Xiao’s temple and patted his cheek. "If you resist arrest, the Jinyi Bureau has the right to kill you on the spot! Kid, don’t get too cocky. Go against us, and you’re heading down a dead-end street."

The next mont, his expression changed dramatically.

CRACK!

The sound of a breaking arm echoed through the room.

With a speed faster than lightning, Chen Xiao snatched the handgun from him. Then, he pressed the barrel to the man’s head.

Instantly, all the other guns swiveled to aim at Chen Xiao. "Release Captain Xue! Put the gun down!"

With a gun to his head, Xue Dagui was anything but panicked. Instead, he sneered relentlessly. "Go on! Shoot ! Right in the head! What you’re doing right now is a capital offense! If you don’t kill , I’ll kill you sooner or later! Who the hell do you think you are, defying the Jinyi Bureau? Put the gun down! Or else—"

BANG! BANG! BANG!

Three shots rang out, and the rampant arrogance on Xue Dagui’s face twisted into terror. Agony ripped through him, and he let out a piercing scream.

His thigh had been hit three tis. The intense pain sent him crashing to his knees.

Chen Xiao’s gun was once again aid at his head. "Breathe one more word of bullshit, and I won’t mind blowing your head open."

"Go on, kill !" Xue Dagui’s face was a mask of defiant savagery. "If you can’t kill , I’ll kill you..."

"Then I’ll oblige you," Chen Xiao said, his expression flat as he slowly began to squeeze the trigger.

Seeing Chen Xiao’s indifferent, rciless eyes, Xue Dagui finally felt true panic.

This guy is a madman! I can’t take that gamble.

"Wait! I think... we can still discuss this!"
