"Guo Bureau, what do you mean?"
Pang Shuo didn't turn back. Just by the voice he recognized the person who came.
The duty officer peeked into the room outside the conference room.
Behind Guo Bureau there were another three people. Pang Shuo recognized they were the three people in charge of Fierce Tigers Club, Wu Xiong. He changed his face instantly.
How could Wu Xiong and his men be at the door of the conference room? What were his men monitoring?
Guo Bureau saw what his old subordinate was thinking and changed the topic, pretending they didn't know each other and started introducing Fierce Tigers Club to them.
"They are Wu Xiong, Song Jing and Kong Anzhi, three heroes who have helped our Qipan City a lot."
Liu Ying kicked Pang Shuo from behind. Pang Shuo came to his senses and squeezed out a smile, "Nice to meet you."
Wu Xiong took a step forward with folded hands, "No no no, Squad Leader Pang has been working for the country and people so devotedly that we are ashamed. We came today not for anything else but to provide some clues about Hibiscus Noodles as we heard you were looking for them."
This turn of events made some people in the conference room feel surprised. Pang Shuo and Liu Ying exchanged a subtle look.
The two decided to see what the other party was selling first.
"Let's all sit down and talk."
Guo Bureau shook his head. Liu Ying was usually a smart girl. How could she not know to let them sit down?
Could it be that after staying with Old Pang for so long her mind became muddled?
After taking their seats, Wu Xiong and his men seemed even more anxious and eager to start speaking, "Let me get to the point..."
The three of them cooperated seamlessly and stated the key points loud and clear.
First, they originally thought the reason given by the task force was too far-fetched, so they didn't cooperate.
Second, after chatting with someone, they realized the task force might be right. To avoid delay, they took the initiative to come over.
Third, they provided the transportation routes and asked their Fierce Tiger brothers to work with the task force as soon as possible to find evidence.
"...We really didn't know Hibiscus Noodles came from this. We are all people of Qipan. If Qipan City is in trouble and needs help, we three will never shirk our responsibility." Wu Xiong added finally.
Although Liu Ying and Pang Shuo were a little doubtful of their intention, their information was largely the same as what Qi Yuan said, so they didn't dwell on the motive of Wu Xiong's visit.
Pang Shuo immediately assembled the Fourth Platoon. With the cooperation of Fierce Tigers Club, they set off at midnight.
Duty vehicles raced down the deserted streets without flashing lights or sirens, followed by luxury cars of Fierce Tigers Club.
Before long,
the confessions of the morgue and hospital staff who were bribed, as well as photos of large numbers of human bones in the suburbs, were placed in front of Guo Bureau.
The paranormal task force chief of Qipan City had an ashen face. He found the number of bones exceeded that of the Gebi City case.
Although the purpose of Hibiscus Noodles was still unclear, it was sufficient to ascertain that Fan Gu had bred monsters.
He pondered for a moment and issued orders.
"Immediately apply for A-level paranormal support and have Cheng Yizhou lead the team to monitor Fan Gu."
"Also, send task forces to collect Hibiscus Noodles."
"Finally, have all the city's task forces stand by, ready to evacuate people at any time. If asked, tell them there will be large-scale exercises and request their cooperation."
Everyone stood at attention with their heels together and saluted in unison.
"Yes sir!"
People filed out of the conference room and went to their respective posts.
Wu Xiong and his men didn't leave. Providing clues alone wouldn't amount to much. They wanted to do a thorough job. There was more for them to do.
"Guo Bureau, this is related to us to some extent. Feel free to ask if you need our help. We'll be here waiting until the case is solved."
Now Guo Bureau was truly surprised.
Staying here and going home to wait were worlds apart.
The former meant they would be on site and couldn't shirk responsibility if something really happened; the latter meant they could easily find excuses to shirk responsibility at home.
Fierce Tigers Club had really shed blood this time, which made Guo Bureau look at them with admiration.
At this moment, he sincerely believed Fierce Tigers Club was the outstanding underground group representing Qipan City.
Guo Bureau took a deep breath and spoke in a low voice, "You three are men of noble spirit. I, Guo, admire you."
...
"Captain Cheng, an emergency task in the dead of night?"
The youth with dyed yellow hair yawned, wearing his task force uniform loosely.
Cheng Yizhou said concisely, "Hurry up, it's an A-level task."
The yellow-haired youth immediately opened the car door, got in and closed the door in one swift movement.
The team member in charge of intelligence in the car stared at the screen, his fingers flying on the keyboard, constantly outputting information to them.
"Our task is to monitor Fan Gu who is suspected of breeding A-level monsters called Beauty in the Mirror."
"Fan Gu, male, 46 years old, 1.76 meters tall. I've sent his photo to your communicators. Please check it."
"His life was normal in the first 30 years. At 34, he was suppressed by a paranormal group in Gebi City, after which his business went bankrupt and his family fell apart."
"Since then, he joined an anti-paranormal cult. Something happened to that anti-paranormal cult later and they disappeared collectively. It is suspected that Fan Gu did it. Then Fan Gu moved to our city."
"He cooperated with Fierce Tigers Club to sell a flower called Hibiscus Noodles. Some time ago, the Fourth Platoon received a report from a woman, uh... hmm?"
The team member in charge of intelligence got stuck when he read to the back. He doubted something was wrong with his eyes. He stared wildly and rubbed his eyes again.
"Old Wang, can you do it or not?"
The yellow-haired youth put his hands behind his head and mocked him.
Old Wang scoffed, "If you are so capable, you do it!"
The yellow-haired youth laughed. He might not be good at other things, but he could run his mouth.
"Sure, give it to me!"
He stared at the screen, found where Old Wang had stopped, and quickly read on.
"Uh... this woman claimed..."
The yellow-haired youth struggled. What was written here? He suspected the information was wrong.
Cheng Yizhou reached out and adjusted the screen. He browsed through the information and quickly read out the rest.
"This woman claimed it was totally unreasonable that she didn't want to gain weight when a very handsome man said she was too skinny. She suspected a potted plant had affected her mind. After the Fourth Platoon received the report, they carried out a series of investigation actions but found nothing. Then Guo Bureau received a report from Fierce Tigers Club. They said they suspected something wrong with the Hibiscus Noodles they were selling together and requested to file an investigation. "
"Based on the clues provided by Fierce Tigers Club, the Fourth Platoon investigated and interrogated hospital and morgue staff involved in the case, and successfully found a large number of human bones and remains."
There was dead silence as Cheng's words were clear one by one but didn't make sense when put together.
After a long time, someone broke the silence.
"Captain Cheng, did you misread something or miss anything?"
Others looked at Cheng Yizhou, strongly agreeing with this statement.
"No."
Cheng Yizhou frowned into the shape of the character Chuan. The description of a very handsome man reminded him of Qi Yuan.
"Haha, nowadays the task force even accepts such outrageous cases?"
Someone forced out two dry laughs and voiced their doubts.
"But they did find a major case. You have to admit that."
"Since when have Fierce Tigers Club been so reasonable?"
"Such efficiency. It was yesterday's case and solved today."
Cheng Yizhou pushed the screen back, ending the increasingly irrelevant discussion.
"Alright, now is not the time to discuss this."
m back to his original world. In the end, he realized he had overthought things. [Hey, why is Shen Manni, the female lead, acting strange? Shouldn't she be fawning over the male lead at this point?] [Zhou Qiaoqiao, are you sick? Weren't you supposed to break off your engagement today?] [Damn it! An Youyi, please do your job as an undercover agent and sell my information to the protagonist, you idiot!] ... At this moment, Xu Mo himself didn't know that these female leads had already heard his inner thoughts. Then they decided not to play by the rules. Xu Mo: Please respect my profession as the big villain!
yet utterly incapable of cultivation. In the end, his master cast him out. Roaming the mortal world with his companion, the qilin Da Huang, he eventually returned to the Chen family. There, he obtained the Innatal Womb Pearl and finally unlocked the path to cultivation. Little did Chen Chang'an expect—his true talent for cultivation had been hidden within his mother's womb all along?
ave】 Shen Qingling was a man with peerless looks, a cunning mind, and the ability to play both the aloof noble and the innocent sweetheart—a master of seduction who could outplay any player. But after an untimely death, he found himself bound to a system and transmigrated into the tragic "true young master" of a melodramatic novel. In the original story, his childhood sweetheart treated him as a backup plan, his fiancée swore to break off their engagement for the sake of the "fake young master," and his own sister saw him as the family's disgrace. He was nothing more than a rat everyone wanted to stomp on. System 077: "Your mission is to change the original fate and conquer the goddesses." Shen Qingling: "Thanks for the invite. If seduction had tiers, I’d be max level." His childhood sweetheart knelt, begging for forgiveness: "Qingling, I was wrong. Please give me another chance." His ex-fiancée refused to marry anyone else: "Shen Qingling, I was blind before. In this life, I’ll marry no one but you." A yandere CEO went mad for love: "Shen Qingling, you can only like me. I’ll stop at nothing to make you mine!" His green-tea sister clung to him daily: "Brother, look at me, won’t you? I’m more obedient than them—I love you the most~" At first, they scorned and trampled on him. Later, they burned themselves like moths to a flame, all for his sake. His looks were his weapon, his sweet words the bait—heroines obsessed over him, villains turned to madness for him. Shen Qingling became a true male siren, igniting battlefield after battlefield of women fighting for his affection. Years later, when System 077—now one of the elites—was asked how to become as outstanding as it, it lazily exhaled a smoke ring and replied: "Just know how to cheer ‘666’ at the right time."
lan, the Luo family, tracked him down - along with the babies in their arms. Mo Xuan stared pensively at the paternity test results from over a dozen top institutions, both domestic and international, showing a 99.99% match between himself and the two baby girls. At 23, Mo Xuan, a doctoral student, had become the father of two three-year-old children. The kicker? The mothers weren't even the same person! He gradually realized he was being lured step by step into an elaborate trap designed by these two yandere sisters. "Be good, little Xuan. Sister's life belongs to you entirely." "Brother, if you try to run away, I'll have no choice but to tie you up." Mo Xuan: "Do whatever you want, ladies. I give up."
