That night, LA City was shrouded in a curtain of rain, heavy rain pouring down as everything appeared blurred in the distance. The myriad lights in the distance dotted a sense of warmth everywhere,
however, in contrast to the serene and harmonious atmosphere of the city's lights, the prosecutor's office in LA City was steeped in coldness and solemnity.
At this mont, Lu Yu stepped off the minibus and walked slowly through the rain as if he were a deathly presence wandering in the dead of night, silent and quiet.
The cold, dense rain battered his body without him noticing. Now, he seed like a grim reaper harvesting the souls of sinners on a rainy night, each step filled with chill and austerity!
Due to the special circumstances tonight, the prosecutor's office's security guards had already been sent away, so Lu Yu walked slowly and entered the office's front gate, heading towards the main hall.
As he quietly entered the prosecutor's main hall, an eerie silence pervaded the atmosphere; there was no trace of personnel movent, and even the surveillance in every corner had been turned off, marked by conspicuous red lights.
Seeing this, Lu Yu couldn't help but smile cunningly, making his way further inside.
The reason the prosecutor's office was like this was clearly because soone had prearranged it, to ensure that when those people ca to abduct him, no one would notice, allowing them to deal with him quietly!
With the surveillance turned off and staff dispersed, it was a good plan. If successful, he would vanish without a trace like he never existed and could be found nowhere!
But this ti, the opposition underestimated him.
They completely underestimated his capabilities, turning their supposed advantages into Lu Yu's benefit!
No surveillance, no staff, which ant he could go freely to find one of the persons involved in this matter!
Thinking of this, Lu Yu didn't hesitate for a mont, glanced at the layout map of the prosecutor's office, and headed toward the floor where the chief and vice chief were located.
The ability to issue such an illegal arrest warrant, and to shut down surveillance and dismiss staff could only be done at the chief's level.
...
anwhile, in the deputy chief's office of the prosecutor's office.
Zhang Fenglin was sitting anxiously in his office. Not long ago, he had ordered all security and staff to leave and personally turned off the office's surveillance to cooperate with Zhou Jiming's actions.
But for so reason, after doing all this, he felt a deep sense of dread.
After all, this matter involved human lives!
Yet despite the trendous fear, Zhang Fenglin felt no regret, as long as Lu Yu was alive, his future and wealth were constantly at risk!
At just over thirty years old, he was at the peak of his rise, and with his current position and wealth, advancing to a better future wouldn't be a problem with a bit of effort in his career!
So, under such stimulation, even the usually timid Zhang Fenglin felt a stir of malevolence!
In this world, blocking soone's wealth is akin to killing their parents, so driven by profit, his heart hardened!
Thinking of this, Zhang Fenglin held his phone, waiting for information to arrive.
Zhou Jiming had said that he'd notify him via text once the matter was resolved, so he eagerly awaited the conclusion of this matter to ease his tense mind.
Bang!
Just as Zhang Fenglin awaited the ssage,
A crisp sound suddenly echoed through the eerily quiet corridors.
What was that sound!?
Hearing this, Zhang Fenglin shuddered, halted all activity, and listened intently to the outside sounds.
Bang!
Another sound was heard. Hearing it now more distinctly, it seed right outside his office, resembling the sound of drenched shoes stepping on the floor!
With the heavy rain outside and the empty prosecutor's office building, such a sound was like sothing out of a horror movie, plunging the cowardly Zhang Fenglin into intense fear.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Now in his terror, the sounds were becoming more frequent, accompanied by rapid knocking on doors.
Soone is looking for soone!
Upon hearing the sounds and the knocks, Zhang Fenglin's mind raced, instantly realizing what this noise was for!
In an empty prosecutor's office building, to hear such searching noises, was the person outside looking for him?
Thinking this, an intense wave of fear struck Zhang Fenglin; the scene felt eerily like a horror movie scenario, causing his heart to race with terror!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The footsteps continued, drawing nearer.
From the sound, Zhang Fenglin could deduce that it was right next door!
What to do? What to do?
Thinking about this, in an instant, Zhang Fenglin was consud by fear, not knowing whom they were seeking, but imnsely terrified nonetheless!
Squeak!
In his panic, his chair scraped against the floor, emitting a sharp sound echoing loudly in the silent office!
Hearing it, Zhang Fenglin nearly jumped out of his skin, trembling he whispered, "He can't have heard it, he can't have heard it!"
However, the shrill sound was barely heard before the sounds outside suddenly ceased, and the surrounding silence seed as dead as ever.
Despite the silence, Zhang Fenglin dared not move, fearing the person might find him upon hearing the sound!
One minute, two minutes, three minutes, after five minutes, Zhang Fenglin gradually relaxed, now sure the person had left.
Just as he was about to let out a long, relaxing breath, an unexpected change occurred!
Boom!
With a thud, the office door was kicked in with great force, crashing to the floor!
