"Don't worry, Mr. Li, we'll get the information out of this kid." Liu Xian put away his gun. "Thank you for your cooperation."
"No need to thank me, it's my duty as a citizen. I've always been a law-abiding citizen. Don't believe anything this kid says," Li Changhai said with a smile.
His words were a typical sign of guilt; the Ma family had dirt on him.
"Don't worry, we police don't trust just anyone." Liu Xian nodded, then turned and left.
After the person left, the smile on Li Changhai's face gradually disappeared. He sat down, took a sip of tea, and then prepared to leave.
However, to his surprise, no sooner had the police left than someone pushed the door open and entered.
This is Ma Chenglong wearing sunglasses and covering his face completely.
"You, you..." Li Changhai's expression changed drastically. Even though he couldn't see the other person's face, he could still tell from his physique that the other person was Ma Chenglong.
"Uncle Hai, you didn't expect this, did you?" Ma Chenglong sat down and poured himself a cup of tea.
"Xiaolong, what brings you here?" Li Changhai composed himself, and countless thoughts flashed through his mind.
Ma Chenglong is now an extremely dangerous person, and it goes without saying what his purpose is in coming here.
I just betrayed him, and now that he's come knocking on my door, I can imagine what will happen to me.
“Didn’t we agree to meet here? Why can’t I come?” Ma Chenglong grinned.
"Xiaolong, listen to me, there must be some misunderstanding between us." Li Changhai was starting to back down. He glanced around at his surroundings, desperately trying to find a way to escape.
However, to his despair, the door was locked, and the window was a floor-to-ceiling window from the World University. This was the sixth floor, and jumping down would be certain death.
"Misunderstanding? What misunderstanding could there be between us? If it's a misunderstanding, can't we just explain it away?" Ma Chenglong sneered, "Why are the police here? Why didn't you bring the keys my father gave you?"
Suddenly, he slammed his hand on the table fiercely: "My dad trusted you so much, entrusting you with the most important things, and you betrayed me?"
"Xiaolong, listen to me, Xiaolong." Li Changhai knelt down on the ground with a thud, and he wailed hoarsely, "I didn't mean to, I didn't want this to happen."
“But your Ma family has committed such a serious crime, who would dare to protect you? The police came to me as soon as you got into trouble. If I don’t cooperate, I’ll go in too.”
"Bullshit!" Ma Chenglong grabbed his collar. "You're just a coward who's afraid of death. Where's the key my dad left me?"
“This, this thing, I, I already…” Li Changhai stammered.
"You've already opened the safe?" Ma Chenglong's face immediately turned ugly.
"I urgently need cash flow for my business. What your father gave me was a sum of gold, which I've temporarily misappropriated." Li Changhai was terrified and nearly wet himself. "But don't worry, I can give you cash for it, I..."
“No need.” Ma Chenglong suddenly smiled, released Li Changhai, and his tone softened: “It’s fine if it’s spent.”
"Xiaolong, I really didn't mean it." Li Changhai knelt on the ground, crying and wailing, "I was momentarily blinded by greed, it's my fault, but don't worry, I'll make it up to you, I definitely will..."
“You are ungrateful and greedy.” Ma Chenglong turned around, a cold expression on his face: “Consider this money as an advance offering to yourself in the underworld.”
"Let me explain, Xiaolong! Don't kill me! I can explain it all!" Li Changhai screamed in terror.
“No need to explain. If you insist on explaining, then go to the underworld and explain to my father.” Ma Chenglong smiled slightly. He patted Li Changhai’s face, and suddenly, he pulled out a dagger and plunged it into Li Changhai’s heart without hesitation.
Li Changhai's expression froze. He gripped Ma Chenglong's clothes tightly as his body slowly fell to the ground.
After pulling out the dagger and confirming that Li Changhai was dead, Ma Chenglong sneered and turned to leave.
Ye Xingchen was taken to a police car, where only he and Liu Xian were inside. Liu Xian drove to the police station.
"Has your superiors called yet?" Ye Xingchen suddenly asked with a smile.
"What did you say?" Liu Xian looked completely bewildered.
“I said, your superiors should be calling soon,” Ye Xingchen said.
"If you have something to say, go to the police station and say it. Don't pretend here." Liu Xian sneered.
But no sooner had he finished speaking than a phone call came in, and it was the red landline in the director's office.
Liu Xian felt a chill run down his spine. The bureau chief had called in person; there must be something important he wanted to tell him.
He quickly answered the phone and said respectfully, "Director."
"Release the person in your car; he's an undercover police officer," the other party said bluntly.
"Him?" Liu Xian was taken aback and glanced at Ye Xingchen sideways.
Judging from Ye Xingchen's appearance, he doesn't look like an undercover agent at all.
But since it was a call from the bureau chief himself, it can't be wrong.
"That's right, don't ask too many questions, follow the confidentiality agreement, that's all." The other party hung up the phone immediately after saying that.
Hearing the busy tone on the phone, Liu Xian didn't react for a long time.
The accomplice of Ma Chenglong, whom I went to so much trouble to capture... turns out to be one of my own?
"Did you hear the order? Release him." Ye Xingchen took off the handcuffs and handed them back to Liu Xian.
"When did you take your handcuffs off?" Liu Xian was taken aback and pulled the car over to the side of the road.
"These little tricks won't work on me." Ye Xingchen sighed. "Don't ask so many questions. Just remember the confidentiality agreement."
Liu Xian had no choice but to accept the call. Since the bureau chief had called personally, it must be true.
He parked the car and was about to open the door when he suddenly seemed to remember something: "Since you're an undercover agent, wouldn't it arouse suspicion if we arrested you and then released you?"
"Yes," Ye Xingchen said seriously, "so I have to beat you up to create the illusion that you've run away."
"This..." Liu Xian was both amused and exasperated. He thought he had caught a big fish, but he didn't expect to get himself into trouble.
Now that he's released the man, he'll still get beaten up, which is really not worth it. But at this point, he really has no choice but to say helplessly, "Fine, go ahead and do it."
"Here you go, these are some pieces of evidence against Li Changhai." Ye Xingchen took his phone and sent a document to Liu Xian.
Liu Xian took the documents and flipped through them. After a few glances, his expression turned serious.
If this information is true, then Li Changhai should be arrested immediately; it wouldn't be an exaggeration for him to be executed.
