Guo Qing'an said, "Where are you now? Come to the police station immediately, let's talk in person."

Ling Zhenfei said, "Okay, I'll be right there."

After hanging up the phone, Ling Zhenfei was extremely anxious, feeling as if a myriad of ants were scratching in his heart, worried about Han Lian's condition and driving towards the police station.

Guo Qing'an was the chief of the city's police department; Ling Zhenfei headed to the Municipal Public Security Bureau, a place he was familiar with due to past dealings with Lin's Group.

He drove straight into the police station and ran towards Director Guo's office.

Upon arriving at Director Guo's office, Ling Zhenfei pushed the door open and entered.

Director Guo was sitting in his office, seemingly busy anxiously organizing something.

"Director Guo, what on earth has happened? Is there some kind of problem?" Ling Zhenfei asked as he approached Guo Qing'an.

Seeing Ling Zhenfei, Guo Qing'an became visibly agitated: "Han Lian's been in an accident, she's been seriously injured and is in critical condition."

"What happened? Wasn't she pursuing a criminal? How could she have had an accident? Where are the others?" Ling Zhenfei asked, baffled.

"Those criminals are simply too brutal. They outnumber us and are quite formidable, so Han Lian and her team posed no threat to them. Instead, our side suffered heavy losses."

Director Guo explained gravely, his expression tense. It was clear that he was troubled; Han Lian was his right-hand person, someone he had personally promoted, almost like his own child.

"Enough, Director Guo, don't say anything more. Where is Han Lian? I'm going to see her right now." Ling Zhenfei could hardly wait; each additional minute increased the danger for Han Lian.

Guo Qing'an said, "I was waiting for you. I've prepared the plane tickets; as soon you're ready, we can leave immediately."

Ling Zhenfei said, "I have nothing to prepare; let's go now."

Both were extremely urgent, ready to leave at a moment's notice; Ling Zhenfei drove towards the airport.

"When's the flight?" Ling Zhenfei asked Guo Qing'an while on the road.

Guo Qing'an said, "Just drive to the airport. We'll take whichever flight can get us to the Northeast the fastest."

Ling Zhenfei said, surprised, "How do you know there will be seats available?"

Guo Qing'an said, "This is an official trip. Even if there are no seats left, they'll have to provide two stools in first class for us."

They raced against time and reached the airport in record time.

Guo Qing'an had Ling Zhenfei wait inside while he went to make calls about the flight.

Sitting in the airport waiting area, Ling Zhenfei thought about everything he had experienced with Han Lian, and suddenly remembered the phone call from her he received on the edge of Xianling Mountain.

At that time, because of his location, he hadn't heard what Han Lian said, but now it seemed that she might have been in danger when she called.

What a pity. There was no signal inside Xianling Mountain; although he had received the call, he couldn't hear the voice inside. Han Lian must have felt very desperate at that time.

Thinking about it made Ling Zhenfei feel uncomfortable; how could such a good girl have encountered trouble?

This time Han Lian had been pursuing Tang Sen, and unexpectedly, not only had Tang Sen managed to escape from the police, he had also resisted arrest.

Thinking about how Tang Sen could actually hire mercenaries to attack Han Lian at her home only shows that Tang Sen is extremely arrogant and utterly disregards the law, and this time he even injured Han Lian.

The more Ling Zhenfei thought about it, the angrier he got. He had already decided that he couldn't let this brat get away with it. If Han Lian died, Ling Zhenfei would definitely make him wish he were dead.

At that moment, Guo Qing'an suddenly came back and said, "Hurry up, the plane is already arranged."

Ling Zhenfei followed Guo Qing'an through a special passage and boarded a plane.

Because this situation was very special, Guo Qing'an was acting as a representative of the country's special department, so all units of any country had to provide assistance.

The two of them walked into the first-class cabin of the plane and, not sure if it was specially arranged, they found themselves alone in the first class.

The flight attendant was very eager to assist them. Once the plane reached a stable altitude, Guo Qing'an asked the attendant not to come over and disturb them.

Ling Zhenfei could tell that something was off with Guo Qing'an's expression as if he had something he wanted to say.

Guo Qing'an, with a serious expression, said to Ling Zhenfei, "Zhenfei, I have something very special to tell you this time."

"Just tell me what it is."

Ling Zhenfei was very surprised, knowing that what Guo Qing'an had to say must be very important. Otherwise, he wouldn't have chosen to talk about it on a plane.

Guo Qing'an looked at Ling Zhenfei and said, "Do you still remember that you are a member of the national special department?"

Ling Zhenfei nodded and replied, "Of course I remember, wasn't that something you and I handled?"

Guo Qing'an nodded, "It's good you remember your identity. You have been with the special department for quite some time, and the organization hasn't given you any tasks until now, but a mission has come."

Ling Zhenfei seemed to realize something, "Is the mission related to Han Lian's case?"

Guo Qing'an nodded and said, "Exactly, it's related to Han Lian's case. Do you know why Han Lian was on a mission this time?"

Ling Zhenfei replied, "I have a slight understanding of the matter. It's about chasing Tang Sen, correct?"

Guo Qing'an, somewhat surprised, replied, "I didn't expect you to be so well informed. Yes, this is about capturing Tang Sen."

Ling Zhenfei, somewhat curious, remarked, "Isn't Tang Sen just a small-time drug dealer? Is he really worth such a significant effort?"

Guo Qing'an shook his head and then took a folder from his bag, from which he pulled out a document, saying, "Tang Sen is not as simple as we imagined, especially the people behind him; they're even more complicated."

Ling Zhenfei took the document and started to read it, but Guo Qing'an continued, "Tang Sen's boss goes by the name Wu Yingxiong. No one knows his real name. He's known as Wu Yingxiong, which means 'no hero'."

"This guy's quite audacious, huh?" Ling Zhenfei remarked.

Guo Qing'an said, "Indeed. If there's one word to describe this guy, it would be 'audacious.' This kid is hiding in a small city on the border, dealing specifically with the old Maozi."

"I assume the business isn't legitimate, right?" Ling Zhenfei asked.

"Exactly. Wu Yingxiong is hiding in this small city in the Northeast because it's a place where he can get arms from the old Maozi. Moreover, this location is convenient for smuggling and the flow of people," Guo Qing'an explained.

Guo Qing'an pointed to a photo on Ling Zhenfei's document and said, "This is a photo of Wu Yingxiong from a few years back. Because this guy is extremely good at hiding, it's very difficult to get a picture of him."
