Languifang KTV.
The sound of ambulances and police cars filled the air.
There was no choice; Li Chuan had injured too many people. It took nearly an hour just to carry the injured away.
"Director Zhou, thank you so much just now. I have so local specialties here for you to take ho and try."
Yang Jinrong gave a signal to his subordinate, who understood and imdiately carried a box of tea gifts to Zhou Yongfu's car.
Zhou Yongfu's expression was indifferent: "Yang Jinrong, you know what to do next. I don't want incidents like this happening in my jurisdiction again."
"Yes, yes! Director Zhou, I certainly know what to do. Rest assured." Yang Jinrong smiled accommodatingly. Solving the big problem of Li Chuan was worth a little loss today.
Although the thods were taboo, it was indeed Li Chuan who first stord into his KTV. If word of this got out in the Jianghu, he could find enough justification for his actions.
If Li Chuan hadn't been aggressive, Yang Jinrong's call to the police would surely have caused public outrage.
"Alright, Li, you stay and take a statent from Manager Yang. The rest of you, fall back." Zhou Yongfu looked indifferent, unfazed by the recent events.
To him, it was just a cleanup of a small-ti hooligan.
anwhile, Li Chuan appeared equally calm.
Why?
He thought of Gao Jinyu and Liu Zhenmin.
The present situation probably didn't require soone of Gao Jinyu's level to intervene; Liu Zhenmin alone would suffice.
If Liu Zhenmin wanted to handle matters at Nine-Headed Mountain, he would inevitably co to him!
Because only he could deal with the things inside Dragon Earth Cave!
When Li Chuan got out of the police car, the rain intensified!
Yet, out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly noticed two figures!
An old man and a young girl stood under the phoenix tree on the street, holding umbrellas.
In this heavy rain, the street was void of pedestrians, making the pair stand out.
"Hmm? Another black umbrella, an old man, and a... young girl. I rember during the Three-blade Hall's siege, it seed soone was observing . That feeling of being watched is identical! Could it be the sa person?" With Li Chuan's heightened senses, unmatched by typical martial arts masters, he could permanently rember soone's presence once he sensed it!
"Strange, why are they here? Could they be monitoring ?"
Li Chuan was suddenly alard; he didn't recognize the pair, so why were they watching him?
This feeling of being observed made him uneasy.
...
"Miss, this approach of yours is brilliant!" Elder Dong looked admiringly, "Although Li Chuan didn't kill Yang Jinrong, after this, Yang Jinrong is badly wounded, and he even called the police! Since he broke the rules, his days in Jianghu are numbered!"
The girl, with a lollipop in her mouth, replied, "That's right, Yang Jinrong broke Jianghu's rules this ti. Even if we don't act against him, he's finished in this lifeti. Once the news spreads, many factions will know he's done for."
Elder Dong hesitated: "Miss, should we bring Li Chuan in? This guy is formidable. If we could use him..."
The girl popped the lollipop out and shook her head: "No need. There are plenty of experts to choose from; why pick a reckless one?"
Elder Dong froze, then awkwardly smiled without saying more.
...
anwhile.
At the foot of Nine-Headed Mountain.
Liu Zhenmin and his group stood in the pouring rain, umbrellas in hand, waiting for the return of Geomancer Hua Yunfeng and Xing Zhong.
But no one appeared for a long ti on the mountain path, which was shrouded in mist, obscuring the view.
As ti ticked by, the faces of Liu Zhenmin and his group grew increasingly grim.
Nine-Headed Mountain was known to be eerie. To Jiangzhou's elders, it was akin to Ailao Mountain; aside from the Lan Clan, only those who loved adventure dared venture in, where few returned. Yet, the danger only fueled more to explore!
"Cheng, call the master and see what's happened. Why haven't they co down yet?" Liu Zhenmin frowned.
Cheng was his secretary.
"Alright."
Cheng made several calls, but no one picked up.
"Secretary, no one is answering." Cheng's face was also heavy.
Liu Zhenmin: "Two masters and five disciples; they should answer, regardless."
"Secretary Liu, let lead a team into the mountain. I'm sowhat familiar with Nine-Headed Mountain." Forestry Bureau Director Wei Yong volunteered, seeing an opportunity to shine.
Before Liu Zhenmin could respond, Lan Yubo sneered: "Leaders, if you don't want your n to die in there, don't send them. I know you don't like listening to this old man, but I speak for your well-being."
Wei Yong frowned: "Old man, you're exaggerating. I've been in that mountain before."
"Heh." Lan Yubo remained expressionless, "Fine, go if you must; I won't stop you. But if anything happens, don't bla us!"
Wei Yong: "..."
Liu Zhenmin hesitated for a mont: "Secretary Cheng, arrange for so drones to scout the area first."
A director dying on his watch would end his career.
"Alright!"
Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up. Drones were a great idea! Why hadn't they thought of this before?
This is why Liu Zhenmin rose to the top?
...
Jiangzhou West City Police Station, as a dangerous suspect, Li Chuan's hands and feet were shackled, a treatnt reserved for murderers.
Moreover, Li Chuan was covered in blood, which made the officers wary.
The two young interrogators, fresh graduates, faced their first highly secured suspect, feeling nervous.
"Na."
"Li Chuan."
"Gender."
Li Chuan: "..."
Though speechless at the question, he finally responded: "Male."
After the routine questioning, the young officers looked at Li Chuan with shock.
"Li Chuan, you caused a violent incident at West City's Languifang KTV, resulting in eleven deaths and two hundred and twenty-nine injuries, a severe case. Do you have anything to add?"
Li Chuan: "I'm thirsty, would like a glass of water."
The young officer on the right looked incredulous: "You still want water at a ti like this?"
Li Chuan: "Then bring a cup of Luckin coffee."
