The Night Watch trainees who had been saved by Xu Fan now stood on Xu Fan's side.
"Director Cao, are you sure you're not mistaken? Brother Xu Fan is our savior, how can you arrest him?"
"Yes, yes, even if we don't give such great heroes certificates and badges, we shouldn't fight them."
Director Cao's order surprised everyone. Some people didn't understand why Director Cao wanted to attack Xu Fan the moment they met.
Director Cao then took out a stack of documents from his pocket, which were clearly images captured by surveillance cameras.
That's the footage of Xu Fan brutally murdering a high-ranking Night Watch agent, helping a mysterious organization steal the treasure map.
The next one is a special wanted poster for Xu Fan.
Xu Fan frowned as he looked at the photo that Director Cao handed him.
He doesn't remember himself. He goes to the Nanshan Guesthouse to steal the treasure map.
If I really wanted to do something like that, I wouldn't need to do it secretly.
He was certain that none of the Night's Watch could stop him.
Director Cao didn't care about anything else and directly sent his personal guards to surround Xu Fan.
"Xu Fan, you are suspected of stealing important state secrets. I am now formally arresting you in my capacity as the director of the Night Watch Bureau. I hope you will come with us for investigation."
It was ostensibly an investigation, but in reality, it was imprisonment.
The Night Watch Bureau will not allow someone with such strong abilities to remain outside the system.
They will not allow someone like Xu Fan to pose a threat to the authority of their Bureau of Business Preservation or even to the entire human society.
Xu Fan frowned, holding the Zhuxian Sword and the Fumo Sword in his hands, as if he could take Director Cao's life with just one step forward.
Deputy Director Gao also sensed the murderous aura emanating from Xu Fan and did not want the situation to escalate.
At the same time, he did not want to be accused of mishandling personnel.
If Xu Fan's crimes are proven true, then what awaits Deputy Director Gao is the end of his career and a tragic end where his future is completely ruined.
Therefore, Deputy Director Gao was the first to stand up and speak for Xu Fan.
"Director Cao, shouldn't we continue the investigation?"
After all, given Xu Fan's abilities and skills, he wouldn't stoop to stealing a treasure map that he himself had deciphered.
Even if he really wanted the important information inside, he could have printed a copy while he was at the Nanshan Guesthouse.
Why risk going back to the Nanshan Guesthouse to steal the treasure map?
This matter is highly suspicious; I hope you will think it over carefully.
Deputy Director Gao spoke with heartfelt sincerity, hoping that Director Cao would retract his decision.
Unfortunately, Director Cao himself had ulterior motives.
Regardless of whether his charges were valid, Director Cao's intention was to arrest him here and imprison him in the Night Watch Bureau's special cell.
When you're under someone's roof, you have to bow your head; Director Gao couldn't say anything more.
He could only silently step aside, while giving Xu Fan a meaningful look, signaling him to surrender immediately and that he would handle the rest.
But Xu Fan is very tough; how could he possibly suffer such an unjust accusation?
No matter what you say, he refuses to put down his weapon.
He was also confident that he could break through the encirclement of these so-called elite troops with his own strength.
Just as Xu Fan was about to unleash his power and break through the encirclement, he suddenly felt a pain in his back, followed by a tingling sensation throughout his body.
He saw his younger sister, Xu Yan, standing behind him, holding a sharp blade covered in magical runes—a weapon specifically designed to target him!
"I'm sorry, brother, I had to do this. It's all for the sake of all mankind."
As Xu Yan plunged the sharp blade into Xu Fan's body, she was also shedding tears. Anyone who didn't know the situation would think that Xu Fan had stabbed his own sister.
Different emotions flashed through Xu Fan's mind.
There were doubts, resentment, and bitterness, but in the end, they all turned into helplessness.
Xu Fan felt his consciousness becoming increasingly blurred, and his body beginning to spiral out of control.
Upon seeing this, Director Cao immediately ordered his personal guards to apprehend Xu Fan.
A special collar, handcuffs, and shackles were put on Xu Fan in an instant, suppressing any power that might exist within his body.
At the same time, several thick steel needles were inserted into important acupoints in his body to prevent him from breaking free and escaping.
"Why? Sister! Why is all this happening?"
Amidst endless doubts about his sister, Xu Fan fell into a coma and collapsed to the ground.
When he regained consciousness, he was already locked in a special cell.
His body was bound by layers of special chains, and his major acupoints were sealed with talismans and steel nails.
The Immortal Execution Sword and the Demon Subduing Sword that were originally in his hands have now disappeared.
Fortunately, Xu Fan had put many important items in his backpack, and the backpack given by the system was not something the Night Watch Bureau could find.
Just as Xu Fan was rummaging through his backpack, he suddenly found a letter.
It was a letter that my grandfather had written to me, which I found in the underground palace of the old house.
The previous letter recounted the origins of the mysterious organization and the persecution of his family by the Night Watch.
He hadn't had time to read the letter below.
He immediately switched to reading mode and began reading the letter in his own mind.
"My child, there is something very important I want to tell you, and it's about your sister."
Your parents are subject to the Night Watch because of their job duties.
Another very important reason is because of your sister.
Your sister is different from you; she is a natural-born superhuman with extremely high talent.
However, her condition was extremely unstable, as if there was another person's soul inside her body.
During the investigation by the Night Watch Bureau's research department, it was discovered that your second sister's soul resides within your younger sister, Xu Yan.
The Night Watch Bureau's research department named him Xu Huan.
She is a being with a very distinct personality, born evil, and possesses immense power. Nearly 90% of the talent your sister displays is a manifestation of Xu Huan's abilities.
A prophet once predicted that the end of the world would begin with your second sister, Xu Huan.
So you must take good care of your sister and prevent her from developing a second personality.
Or rather, you must make sure your sister Xu Yan suppresses Xu Huan's personality.
If that personality truly emerges, please come to the Land of the End; your parents left you a way to save your life there.
After reading the letter, Xu Fan felt a mix of emotions. He didn't know how to face his sister.
The innocent, gentle, and kind younger sister who had been with me since childhood actually harbored an extremely evil personality.
On Ghost Island, his own sister suddenly stabbed him in the back.
It might be the consciousness manifested by Xu Huan's personality.
Just then, a familiar figure suddenly appeared outside his cell door.
The man turned out to be Desis, who had been missing for a long time.
