As the outside light shone in, they saw a group of rats gnawing on a plastic bag.

He shouted, threw down the stick, and ran out.

"If he were inside, he would have been eaten away by rats long ago."

"If I say I won't go in, I'll definitely have nightmares tonight..."

As the sound faded into the distance, Li Bin finally breathed a sigh of relief.

His foot was being gnawed on...

…

The seafood market has been closed for almost half a month.

Some stall owners couldn't stand it anymore and went to the seafood market office.

Lin Ziyan happened to be there that day.

"Ayan, why are you insisting on not reopening the market? Everyone is anxious to leave their stalls," Ajian said with a furrowed brow and deep concern.

No sooner had he finished speaking than two stall owners knocked on the door.

"Why are you here?" A-Jian asked, judging from their expressions. He guessed what was going on, but still asked anyway.

"We're here to give up our stall..."

Lin Ziyan continued reading the documents, seemingly oblivious to their conversation.

The two stall owners exchanged a glance, becoming even more certain of their guess.

The seafood market was closed last time, and business was indeed good after it reopened, but they didn't think it was because the market was well managed, but because they knew how to do business.

Ah Jian wanted to persuade her, but upon receiving Lin Ziyan's gaze, he swallowed back the words he was about to say.

After the two vendors finished their paperwork and left, Lin Ziyan took the contract from his hand and glanced at it.

“Yes, this is a good location.” Lin Ziyan nodded, a smile spreading across her eyes.

Ah Jian, "..."

If this continues, the seafood market will be completely shut down soon.

"It's always been easier to add flowers to brocade than to offer charcoal in the snow," Lin Ziyan said casually.

Ah Jian, "If that case isn't solved, will we just keep the door closed?"

"Isn't doing this a bit...too..."

"Too passive?" Lin Ziyan added.

Ah Jian nodded slightly, thinking that since the seal could be torn off, the door should be opened.

Lin Ziyan said confidently, "It won't be long..."

"And I'm not just waiting for the case to be solved."

Of course, she wouldn't remain passive forever, but every time she was targeted for trouble, she couldn't find the person causing the disruption, and trouble would continue to arise.

This incident also implicated Boss Huo.

Huo Qizhen was released at this moment.

He paid compensation, and the case is under trial, but it's basically certain that he has nothing to do with it; the main responsibility lies with the chef.

"Boss Huo, Brother Biao's men are looking for someone at the port. I heard they've been looking for half a month and haven't withdrawn their forces yet."

Huo Qizhen's eyes darkened. "Old Zheng, did your men really see Li Bin at the port?"

After he finished speaking, he lit a cigarette and took a few deep drags.

In all his years in business, he has never suffered such a huge loss.

"Of course, they met Li Bin at the casino and even had late-night snacks together. They can't mistake him," Old Zheng said confidently.

Huo Qizhen nodded. Since Brother Biao was still searching at the port, it meant that Li Bin had not escaped by boat at all.

He scoffed inwardly. In the past, it was easy to escape inspection by leaving by boat without registering, but that was impossible now.

Huo Qizhen was certain that Li Bin was still at the port.

The two drove straight to Hai County.

Construction was still underway on the other side of the port, and the people coming and going were a mixed bunch, but most of them were registered.

After the last explosion, the management of the construction area became even stricter.

Yan Biao's men still managed to sneak in.

It's been half a month, and we still haven't found Li Bin.

They gradually lost patience and decided to leave the port and give up the search.

When Huo Qizhen and Lao Zheng's men arrived at the port, their men had just left.

"Go inside every warehouse under construction and search it. Tell your men that there will be a big reward if they find it," Huo Qizhen said, lighting a cigarette.

He watched as Lao Zheng led his men to search, then walked to the shaded corridor next to him and leaned against it.

Spending money is a minor issue; the most important thing is to find out who's behind it all.

Huo Qizhen is a vengeful person; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to accumulate so much money in Hong Kong to open a shop here.

He had just finished smoking half a cigarette when he saw Lu Yun Shen getting off the boat, and his eyes paused for a moment.

"Boss Huo, are you looking for someone?" Lu Yunshen walked over.

Huo Qizhen immediately stood up straight and squinted his eyes.

He always thought he was lucky to get out of the police station this time.

Now that he sees Lu Yun Shen, he doesn't think that way anymore.

It was as if Lu Yun Shen was waiting for him at the port.

"Are you looking for Li Bin?" Lu Yunshen asked calmly.

The sea breeze howled, making the roof rattle.

The sky was cloudless, and the scorching sun shone on the port square.

Huo Qizhen glared at him. "Do you know where he is?"

His heart skipped a beat after he asked the question.

Lu Yun Shen merely nodded slightly, a shadow of gloom spreading across his eyes as he indifferently glanced at a warehouse under construction, his chin slightly raised.

"He's in warehouse number 2."

Huo Qizhen stubbed out his cigarette, his eyes instantly lighting up.

But he didn't dare to move. Since Lu Yunshen had found Li Bin, why not hand him over to Captain Wei?

Could it be...?

Lu Yun Shen ignored him and strode towards Warehouse No. 2. He reached out and pulled, and the warehouse door opened.

Li Bin was startled awake, raised his hand to shield his eyes from the sunlight, and looked completely bewildered.

A foul odor wafted out, and Huo Qizhen's stomach acid churned, almost causing him to vomit.

Li Bin never imagined that his ability to hide at the port for half a month was not due to good luck.

He was found by Lu Yunshen's men a week ago, and they also erased his traces in the warehouse.

"The person is yours." Lu Yunshen glanced at Huo Qizhen, then turned and left.

Huo Qizhen, "..."

He instantly understood what Lu Yun Shen meant: the Lu family should not interfere in this matter.

Huo Qizhen was somewhat aware of the current situation in Beijing.

This accident is very likely to involve people in Beijing.
