The people Gu Zixiao and his team called in arrived very quickly after receiving the signal.

Li Hao looked at Meng Guoan, who was leading the team, with some surprise: "Why are you here? Weren't you on a mission out there?"

Meng Guoan rolled his eyes and said irritably, "Why would you ask such a stupid question?"

Li Hao obviously realized it too; of course, it was because the other person had returned after completing the mission.

He chuckled and said, "It all happened in one night. Please be understanding."

"knew."

Meng Guoan looked around and asked Li Hao, "Why don't I see Gu Zixiao? Where is he?"

Li Hao: "Gu Zixiao is probably busy with something else."

"What's he so busy with? I heard he's taken a fancy to a man and keeps saying he wants to marry him. Won't he kill you for being so family-oriented?"

Lei Shengrong, who had been resting nearby, scoffed upon hearing this: "Someone as capable as Gu Zixiao, how could they possibly bear to kill him? Do you think everyone is as useless as you?"

"Hey Lei Shengrong, your mouth is as sharp as ever. I may not be able to beat Gu Zixiao, but beating you is no problem."

Lei Shengrong: "Where did you come from? Do you think I'm afraid of you?"

In the blink of an eye, the two of them were on the verge of a fight.

Li Hao was speechless: "I said we're busy right now, can you two please stop making things worse? Besides, even if you want to fight, could you please wait until you've finished your work?"

Lei Shengrong: "No problem. Meng Guoan, you just wait."

Meng Guoan retorted indignantly, "Fine, we'll wait then."

Li Hao wanted to facepalm: "...What's wrong with you two? You start fighting as soon as you meet."

Gu Zixiao came over after finishing his own business. Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, he didn't care and just smiled and told him, "Hurry up and finish your business. I have other things to do."

Faced with the particularly assertive Gu Zixiao, Meng Guoan dared not treat Gu Zixiao the way he treated Lei Shengrong.

Gu Zixiao is a madman; once he goes berserk, no one can control him. Besides, Gu Zixiao is indeed very strong; ordinary people simply cannot defeat him.

"I understand," Meng Guoan said sullenly.

Seeing his pathetic state, Lei Shengrong snorted, which earned him a 'you just wait' look from Meng Guoan.

After working for more than two hours, they finally finished cleaning up the alley around 6 a.m., and arrested all the criminals they were supposed to catch.

During this time, they kept a close watch on the man in black to prevent him from escaping.

They escorted the man in black and his entourage to their special department's detention center.

The man in black was the first to be interrogated, and at first he was stubborn and didn't want to talk.

Gu Zixiao and the others weren't in a hurry; they just waited it out with him.

However, as time went on, Gu Zixiao noticed that something was wrong with the man in black.

His already frighteningly pale face was now covered in cold sweat, and even though he was clenching his teeth, the pain was still evident.

Finally, the man in black could no longer bear it and collapsed to the ground, howling in pain.

He wailed and glared angrily at Gu Zixiao, gritting his teeth, "You...you...despicable, shameless, and vile!"

Gu Zixiao and others: ...

No, what does it have to do with them?

They didn't do anything.

However, Gu Zixiao reacted quickly, and he vaguely guessed that this matter might be related to Lan Yao.

Although he was very close to Lan Yao at the time, he did not notice Lan Yao contacting the man in black.

However, based on his understanding of Lan Yao, and knowing how many methods Lan Yao had, he estimated that even without making contact with the other party, Lan Yao might still make a move against the man in black.

However, Gu Zixiao has now readily admitted it.

"Yes, I did it. So, to avoid further suffering, you'd better confess honestly."

“I…no…” The man in black resolutely refused to surrender to Gu Zixiao.

Gu Zixiao simply stood up, looking down at him: "Since you're so stubborn, we won't waste our time with you."

Gu Zixiao left the interrogation room first. After he came out, Lei Shengrong, who came out with him, asked, "Boss, what exactly did that man in black mean by what he said? Did you really drug him?"

Gu Zixiao nodded: "I got it by chance in Shenzhen. I accidentally got it on him during the battle, and I didn't expect it to be so effective."

Lei Shengrong gave Gu Zixiao a thumbs up, looking admiringly at her: "You're the best, boss."

Gu Zixiao: "...We've been busy all night, and we're all tired. Let's rest for a while and have something to eat before we talk."

"OK."

As a result, less than half an hour later, Gu Zixiao and the others, who had just finished eating and were about to rest, were called back.

They said the man in black couldn't hold on any longer and had to confess.

And so the man in black confessed everything, including that he had orchestrated many of the major cases that had recently occurred in the capital.

He was actually sent by Xiaoyingzi's side, and his purpose was naturally to disrupt the peace in China.

Of course, besides this, he also joined forces with the Taoist priest in Shenzhen to awaken the owner of the centuries-old tomb and turn it into a ghostly realm.

As a result, I don't know why it failed.

Despite the excruciating pain, the man in black confessed everything he could. He looked at Gu Zixiao with a weak expression and said, "I've said everything I can... the medicine... the antidote."

Gu Zixiao spread her hands, looking completely innocent: "I don't have the antidote. Because I found it in the trap you set."

Man in black: ...

He tried to hold it in, but couldn't, and spat out a mouthful of blood before fainting.

Lei Shengrong curled his lip: "That's such a petty temper."

Gu Zixiao stretched and patted Lei Shengrong on the shoulder: "I'll leave the rest to you. I'm going to Grandma Yu's house to see my husband."

Lei Shengrong: ...

"...Brother, boss, can you please stop scaring people like that?"

Gu Zixiao ignored him. He took a good shower, changed his clothes, and went to the Friendship Store to buy some foreign food. Then he took the bags and went to Grandma Yu's house.

He knocked on Grandma Yu's door. Grandma Yu opened the door, and Gu Zixiao asked as he walked in, "Grandma Yu, where is my husband?"

Grandma Yu rolled her eyes at him: "Yao Xin is gone."

Gu Zixiao's smile vanished, and he frowned: "Gone? Just temporarily? Or gone forever?"

That cunning brat! Luckily, I had a backup plan, otherwise I would never have been able to find him.

Grandma Yu said expressionlessly, "Why should I tell you?"

Gu Zixiao casually tossed the things on the ground, grabbed Grandma Yu's hand, and pleaded earnestly, "Grandma Yu, please tell me. My happiness for the rest of my life is in your hands."
