Chapter 242 Taking over the mission
Captain Hao said, "Among the hundreds of thugs we killed a couple of days ago, Long Jiu, the leader of the Azure Dragon Gang, is Azure Dragon's younger brother; Hei Hu, the leader of the White Tiger Hall, is also White Tiger's younger brother; as for Ma Que, the leader of the Vermilion Bird Gate, and Wu Song, the leader of the Black Tortoise Sect, one is Vermilion Bird's cousin and the other is Black Tortoise's cousin. This joint revenge action by the four major gangs really took us by surprise."
Inspector Fang asked, "Didn't our police have undercover agents within the four major triads? How could this be the result?"
Inspector Cheung gave a wry smile and said, "Our undercover agent in the Green Dragon Gang is probably in grave danger now."
Upon hearing this, Inspector Fang was slightly startled and quickly asked, "Has his identity been exposed?"
Inspector Zhang nodded and said, "Yes, otherwise, his family wouldn't have died tragically under the bridge for no reason."
Inspector Fang frowned and asked, "What about the spies in the other gangs?"
Inspector Zhang replied, "I don't know if there are any spies in other gangs. I only know that the guy named Ah Chung in the Green Dragon Gang is one of ours, but unfortunately..."
Just as they were talking, a large regular army from the YN Empire arrived on the other side of the boundary stone. The two sides were on the verge of clash, and the atmosphere was tense. All the soldiers immediately raised their guns and pointed them at each other.
A short, stout officer stepped out from the opposing group; judging from the insignia on his uniform, he was a corps commander.
As soon as he came out, he shouted, "Who here holds the highest official rank?"
Commander Fang stepped forward and said, "It's me."
The officer sized up Fang Sir for a moment, then said, "What do you mean by this, sir? Are you bullying our little YN Empire because we have no one to rely on?"
Upon hearing this, Inspector Fang shook his head and smiled, saying, "Sir, please don't misunderstand. We were chasing a group of thugs who were committing crimes. We followed them all the way here, but we didn't expect that those thugs had already entered your country's territory."
The opposing officer sneered and said, "What a joke! You've mobilized such a large force just to hunt down a bunch of thugs?"
"Report sir!"
A messenger under Inspector Fang jogged up to him and saluted.
Inspector Fang asked, "What did they say?"
The messenger whispered a few words in Fang Sir's ear, and Fang Sir nodded, saying, "I understand."
The messenger turned and left. Then, Inspector Fang turned to Inspector Zhang and the others and said, "Let's go back first."
Inspector Zhang and Captain Hao exchanged a glance and sighed helplessly.
At the foot of Zhongnan Mountain, Zhang Sir suddenly spoke up: "Fang Sir, what did the higher-ups say? Are they just going to let them go like this?"
Fang Sir sighed, his hands behind his back, and said, "The higher-ups told us not to act rashly; they already have a plan."
Upon hearing this, Inspector Zhang hesitated, wanting to ask what the countermeasures were, but he knew in his heart that since Inspector Fang was not going to say, it must be a state secret.
Jinqiao Villa, 4 PM.
Baihe, Qianqian, and more than ten other women were carrying large and small bags when they returned from outside. They had gone out shopping early in the morning and were only now coming back.
However, as soon as they put the things down, the old leader and Old Tang walked in with solemn expressions. Qianqian and Fangfang quickly went to greet them and each called out "Dad."
Qianqian asked, "Dad, what happened?"
Old Tang asked, "Qianqian, where's Bufan?"
Qianqian replied, "Bufan is injured and is currently in seclusion to recuperate!"
The old commander asked in surprise, "Is Bufan injured?"
Fangfang said, "Yes, Dad, Bufan is seriously injured!"
Old Tang and the old commander both frowned. Old Tang asked, "How did Bufan get injured?"
Yes, how could Bufan be injured? No one would believe that. With Bufan's cultivation level, who could possibly hurt him?
Qianqian's face darkened, and she said, "Dad, Uncle Murong, Bufan's injury was caused by Brother Haijun."
Old Tang was slightly startled and asked, "The Navy? What happened to the Navy?"
Qianqian said, "Haijun-ge... he injured Bufan-ge. Bufan-ge said that it seems that the soul of an evil sorcerer god has attached himself to Haijun-ge's body, and that sorcerer god's goal is to kill Bufan."
The old leader exclaimed in surprise, "Witchcraft God? Evil? How come I've never heard Bufan mention it?"
Qianqian said, "I told Bufan this when he came back injured. He said that Haijun is not the same as before, and his strength is no less than his. By the way, Dad, Bufan told us not to tell Uncle Su about Haijun being possessed by an evil spirit for the time being. He told us to be careful around Haijun."
Old Tang frowned, then nodded after a moment and asked, "How is Bufan now?"
"It's nothing serious, just a minor internal injury. He'll be fine after a few days of rest. Dad, what brings you here to see Bufan?"
Old Tang thought for a moment, then said, "You've all heard about the armored truck robbery in G City today, right?"
Qianqian nodded and said, "I heard that the police have already gone to hunt down the fugitive, haven't they?"
The old commander angrily said, "What's the point of chasing them? They've already fled to the YN Empire. Our police can't just go and arrest them directly, so the higher-ups ordered our Shenlong Team to assassinate the leaders of the four major gangs. However, the Shenlong Team is currently protecting an important figure and can't spare the time, so we came to Bufan, hoping he could come out of retirement."
Fangfang said, "Bufan himself is injured now!"
Baihe walked over and said, "Uncle Tang, Uncle Murong, how about this, let's leave this matter to our female special forces!"
Qianqian said, "That's right! How come I didn't think of that! Dad, Uncle Murong, let's entrust the mission of assassinating the four major gang leaders to our female special forces."
Old Tang asked doubtfully, "Are you sure you can do it?"
Qianqian laughed and said, "Why not? Don't forget, we are all cultivators! Besides, aren't there Sister Baihe and Sister Bailing here too?"
The little rascal rolled up his sleeves and chimed in, "Me too! I'm really good too!"
Everyone smiled and Fangfang smiled slightly, "We were just discussing how to help Bufan, so let's have our female special forces do the first mission!"
Upon hearing this, the old commander and Old Tang exchanged a glance, then nodded in unison. Old Tang said, "Qianqian, then this matter is entrusted to you. During the operation, you must be extremely careful."
Qianqian smiled and said, "Dad, I understand."
"Okay, let's go."
After leaving Jinqiao Villa, Lao Tang and the old leader left by car.
In the car, the old leader said, "Old Tang, have you heard of the sorcerer god?"
Upon hearing this, Old Tang shook his head and said, "I've never heard of it. We haven't been involved in cultivation for very long, and this has completely shattered our understanding of cultivation. It's far beyond what we know. Cultivators still exist, so what Qianqian said is definitely not unfounded. In HX, from ancient times to the present, there are countless myths and legends, such as Pangu creating the world, Nuwa creating humans, the Jade Emperor and Buddha, etc. These are all well-known stories. We are at most frogs in a well. Since we came into contact with cultivation, many things we didn't know have gradually become clear."
