Despite the air conditioning being on in his office, Guo Gaoping's head was still covered in sweat, and his overweight body paced back and forth restlessly!

Guo Gaoping was the director of the Han Yang Road Guard Bureau. A few days ago, someone from the city Guard Bureau had informed him that he might be transferred to work as a director within the city Guard Bureau within half a month, possibly receiving a half-rank promotion. Originally, Guo was overjoyed, and his mood had been great for the past few days. However, a call from Yang Ming, the newly appointed head of the Guard Bureau, had scratched at his heart like a cat's claws!

The call from Yang Ming was very straightforward—it was to tell Guo Gaoping that he had arrested someone he shouldn't have. That was all he said, followed by mentioning that an Officer Song from the city bureau would be arriving soon!

Guo Gaoping felt like ants on a hot pan, truly unable to understand who he could have possibly arrested. He had been in his office all morning since coming to work; he hadn't gone anywhere. How could he have arrested someone?

Guo Gaoping felt that there must be something fishy about this situation.

Just then, there was a knock on the office door, and Guo Gaoping immediately said impatiently, "What the hell, come in!"

The door opened, and Liuu Shanshui hurried in. Although he often carried himself with an air of superiority in front of others, in front of his direct superior, Guo Gaoping, Liuu never dared to take a deep breath. After all, it was Guo who had personally promoted him to deputy director!

"Brother Guo, what's the matter?" Seeing Guo Gaoping's dark expression and his flesh shaking with anger, Liuu Shanshui asked.

Upon seeing Liuu Shanshui enter, Guo Gaoping glared at him and demanded, "Shanshui, have you fucking arrested someone randomly?"

Hearing Guo's roaring question, Liuu was momentarily lost, replying, "No? What's wrong? What happened?"

Liuu would never have thought that the arrest of Ye Xiao would stir up any trouble, let alone paid much heed to Ye Xiao, as there was nothing on his face to indicate his identity.

Guo Gaoping immediately shouted, "Don't fucking play dumb with me. I'm telling you, whoever you arrested, you better hand them over to me right now, or I won't just strip you of your position—I'll have you destroyed!"

Guo Gaoping was definitely panicking at this point; the tone of Yang Ming had been very unfriendly, even somewhat angry, as if it was Yang Ming's father that Guo had arrested!

Guo Gaoping's ability to become the director of a Guard Bureau was a testament to his own shrewdness. From Yang Ming's words, he knew that the bureau must have mistakenly arrested someone. Moreover, since it was Yang Ming himself who had made the call, it was clear that the person mistakenly arrested was definitely in the Han Yang Road Guard Bureau. So now, Guo was frantically worried, knowing that if he didn't release the wrongly arrested person quickly, he could be in big trouble!

After hearing Guo Gaoping's tirade, Liuu felt indignant inside, but what could his dissatisfaction do?

Still with a smile, Liuu replied to Guo, "Brother Guo, don't be angry, what exactly happened? Tell me, who is the person that was arrested? What's their full name? We need to look for them!"

Guo Gaoping glared at Liuu Shanshui and barked, "The new head, Yang Ming, just called me, saying that I've arrested someone I shouldn't have. I've been in the fucking office all morning. Tell me, can I fucking spirit away? I'm telling you, go check right now who the hell was so blind as to arrest the wrong person. Damn it, if I go down, you lot won't have any fucking presence left either, so get the hell out!"

Listening to Guo Gaoping's angry cursing, Liuu felt furious inside but dared not say anything unpleasant. He hurriedly ran out of Guo's office!

"Uncle, what's going on?" Liuu Jili was just outside the door and had naturally heard Guo Gaoping's tirade.

"Damn Guo Gaoping, to humiliate me like this; I'll settle scores with him one day!" muttered Liuu Shanshui angrily.

Liuu Jili said, "Uncle, we've only arrested two people this morning."

"Which two?" Liuu Shanshui quickly asked.

Liuu Jili answered, "One was that thief caught in the morning, and the other was that guy named Ye Xiao."

"Thief? Ye Xiao?" Now, Liuu Shanshui also felt a sense of unease, thinking to himself: Could it actually be Ye Xiao? It couldn't be such a coincidence.

After some thought, Liuu Shanshui felt that there couldn't be such a coincidence, and besides, if Ye Xiao had the kind of backing from the head of the Guard Bureau, he would have surely called for help already. Most importantly, Liuu Shanshui had taken money from the Poison Snake Company to kill Ye Xiao. There were five henchmen from the Poison Snake Company in that room, and he didn't know whether Ye Xiao was alive or dead now!

Liuu Shanshui looked at Liuu Jili and asked, "Did that thief mention anything about having connections?"

"What arrested person doesn't claim to know a few people? This thief's talk was even stranger; he claimed to have people in the city Guard Bureau!" said Liuu Jili.

Hearing Liuu Jili's words, Liuu Shanshui laughed and said, "Looks like it's this thief, and thankfully not Ye Xiao, or else we might really be capsized. Let's go see that thief!"

"Why go see a thief?" Liuu Jili was very puzzled. Was it really credible what a thief said?

Liuu Shanshui said, "Don't ask too much; just hurry and look at that thief!"

...

Meanwhile, a police car from the city Guard Bureau sped toward the Han Yang Road Guard Bureau.

The car door opened, and a stunningly beautiful female police officer with a hint of valiance between her brows stepped out, her face somber. This was none other than Song Jiamin, and naturally, she was here in response to that wrongful arrest!

The police officers at Han Yang Road Guard Bureau, surprised by the sudden arrival of a car from another jurisdiction, immediately approached. They were particularly taken aback by the striking appearance of the woman stepping out of the car, but despite their surprise, they promptly walked over to her.

"May I ask which bureau you are from?" asked the officer as he approached Song Jiamin with a smile.

Song Jiamin glanced at the police officer and said in a cold voice, "Where is Guo Gaoping?"

Upon hearing Song Jiamin's words, the police officer was truly startled. To dare to call Guo Gaoping by his full name within the Han Yang Road Guard Bureau, who could this person be?

The police officer did not dare underestimate Song Jiamin and immediately said with a smile, "Director Guo is upstairs, please follow me!"

After that, Song Jiamin and a few other officers who had come with him entered the courtyard of the Han Yang Road Guard Bureau and then went upstairs!

At this moment, by the railing of a floor upstairs, Liuu Jili had just handed a thief over to Liuu Shanshui, when he suddenly saw several unfamiliar officers entering the courtyard, and among them, a female officer who was exceptionally beautiful. Liuu Jili had seen many beautiful women, but compared to this female police officer, those beauties instantly paled in comparison!

Liuu Jili couldn't help but swallow his saliva, and then hurriedly went downstairs!

...

In Guo Gaoping's office!

"Comrade Jiamin, could there be some misunderstanding? We really didn't catch the person you mentioned this morning, Ye Xiao, right? I've never even heard of him. I've asked Deputy Director Liuu Shanshui to check, and if such a person exists, we will definitely bring him to you immediately!" Guo Gaoping said to Song Jiamin while wiping his sweat!

Song Jiamin said, "Director Guo, since I have come here, and the head of the department has already spoken with you over the phone, do you think we came here for a leisurely stroll with nothing better to do?"

Song Jiamin's tone was neither heavy nor light, but to Guo Gaoping's ears, each word hammered down, causing his heart to ache!

Guo Gaoping suddenly became anxious and hurriedly said, "Comrade Jiamin, that's not what I mean. If Yang, the head of the department, said there is, then there must be, and they are already checking. No matter who arrested this Ye Xiao, I will make sure they give you a satisfactory explanation!"

"No one should arrest the wrong person by mistake, the nation has us wear this police uniform not for us to misuse our authority!" said Song Jiamin with a cold voice!

Guo Gaoping was angry inside but dared not say anything. Seeing that the servant meant to serve tea hadn't arrived yet, he immediately shouted outside, "Where is the tea? Useless lot!"

No sooner had Guo Gaoping finished speaking than the door was pushed open, and Liuu Jili came in carrying several cups of tea, first approaching Song Jiamin with a smile, "Officer Song, this is freshly brewed Maojian tea, please have a taste!"

Song Jiamin didn't even spare Liuu Jili a glance; few girls liked to drink tea, and Song Jiamin was no different, she did not like tea.

Seeing that Song Jiamin was not acknowledging him, Liuu Jili felt somewhat embarrassed and hurriedly served tea to the others, then quickly walked towards the door, not forgetting to take another look at Song Jiamin!

Although Song Jiamin didn't look at him, as a Martial Artist, she was very keen but also didn't think too much of it!

Just then, the door opened again, and this time it was Liuu Shanshui!

Seeing Liuu Shanshui, Guo Gaoping eagerly asked, "What's the situation?"

Liuu Shanshui immediately said, "There is indeed one!"

"What's the name?" Guo Gaoping hurriedly asked!

Liuu Shanshui said, "Zhang Yi!"

"Zhang Yi?" Upon hearing this name, Guo Gaoping immediately looked towards Song Jiamin!

Song Jiamin also listened carefully to the name Liuu Shanshui mentioned, but it was not Ye Xiao!

Guo Gaoping immediately turned to Song Jiamin and said, "Comrade Jiamin, could there be a misunderstanding? There's only a person named Zhang Yi, no Ye Xiao. Could he have two names?"

Finally feeling relieved, Guo Gaoping thought if they didn't have him here, what did he have to fear?

However, at this moment, Liuu Shanshui, on hearing the words 'Ye Xiao,' shivered, looked towards Guo Gaoping and said, "Brother Guo!"

Guo Gaoping looked at Liuu Shanshui with confusion and asked, "What's wrong?"

Liuu Shanshui glanced at Song Jiamin, then said to Guo Gaoping, "There's something I want to discuss with you!"

"What's the matter?"

Now Liuu Shanshui knew that the person they were looking for was actually Ye Xiao, and so he dare not say it outright since he did not know whether Ye Xiao was alive or dead at this point!

Liuu Shanshui looked at Guo Gaoping anxiously and said, "It's something important; let's talk outside!"

"Go outside for what?" Guo Gaoping was puzzled. With people from the city bureau here, what if leaving them alone caused him trouble?

Still, Liuu Shanshui insisted, "Really, it's important, let's talk outside, Brother Guo!"

The last two words 'Brother Guo' from Liuu Shanshui were emphasized significantly more!
