*Bai Li* "Run!" I yelled as I grabbed Xin Lei's hand. Thankfully, she understood it quickly as she matched my pace to dash towards the exit. Something fell and I heard the sound of a glass breaking. It was quick and short. Was it the forensic evidence sample? But I had no time. As soon as I had heard the door open, I knew this was the only chance. Now or never. The seconds ticking by were as precious as gold, while everyone was unable to react. Somebody wanted to trap us so that there would be…

--- Tian Song was standing in a corner where he quickly dialed a number. The name started from R. He said, "They are here today." "Did they meet Fu Ting?" "Yes." "Did Fu Ting say anything new?" "No. He said the same things that he told us during interrogation." "What did they say, especially the man?" "The man said that he would try to find Xin Nianzu, and until then, Fu Ting must not plead guilty in the court. He also knows that there isn't sufficient evidence." There was a pause. "...I see. As…

*Xin Lei* Fu Ting denied. "No, I had asked him since I thought that he would be tagging along with her. He always follows wherever Meili is. But he said that he saw nothing." I remembered how Fu Jun looked a little jittery when we met him. I typed. "Was he scared or nervous when he spoke to you?" Fu Ting thought about it. "...Yes, I think. Now that you ask me, I remember he seemed really afraid of something. But I couldn't pay attention that time because I was too worried about finding Meili." Bai Li…

*Bai Li* Great. Xin Lei and I were happily about to reach Fu Ting's room, but someone just had to interrupt. Well, trials and tribulations were the law of nature. How can anything succeed in one simple attempt? There had to be obstacles. I just hoped that Xin Lei was not panicking. I had been involved in numerous secret missions throughout my fourteen years in the army, and the first thing we were taught in training was that when the circumstances turn unfavorable - don't panic, especially if we were…

*Xin Lei* Dad… "Xin Nianzu is also kept over there." The goon said painfully, trying to resist Bai Li's crushing hold. We finally got to know where he is! He is safe! It was almost ten days without any news of him or brother. And what about brother Zhen? "And Xin Zhen?" Bai Li asked. But he shook his head. "I have heard about him, but we don't know where he is. That's not got to do with us!" Damn it! They are chasing after me but know nothing about my brother! What kind of goons do work under this…

--- In another pub at Andingzhen, Rodey reached almost five hours later from Dongcheng to personally check on the latest status. Sufi, the co-ordinator, was working on the computer as usual. "When is the weapons consignment going out?" "Four days later." She said. "They will be shipped from Tianjin Port. I have recorded the request in the database." "Have the party given the advance?" "Yes. A full fifty million dollars." Rodey nodded. "See to it that there is no problem. Boss has specifically said…

*Xin Lei* "I'm Xin Lei." I wrote my name on a piece of paper. Lin Zihao nodded and asked me, "How did Bai Li get a panic attack?" Su Weiyuan said, "I understand sign language." I carefully observed them. Their build and height were almost similar to Bai Li, but I guess he was a tad bit taller. I nodded and gestured my hands in sign language to act out what had happened. Their expressions turned grim. I looked back at Bai Li, who was peacefully resting. I recalled how he had said that he killed a…

*Xin Lei* I watched the gun drop from Bai Li's hand. He screamed with his hands holding the sides of his head, his forehead furrowed into thin creases sweating a lot, his chest heaving up and down in deep breaths and his entire body trembling a little. He was there just a moment ago, standing with confidence with his gun aimed at the goon, but now his face was distorted in anxiety. I was a doctor. I knew the signs. Bai Li was having a panic attack. And at that moment, I wanted to rush towards him and…

*Duan Deming*, --- "Hey, Song," I called out to him. He slightly nodded. "Guozhi is going to run the DNA today. Has he said anything about the report?" Song said, "No, Duan Deming." I sighed. Then I recalled something. "I remember, were you working late last night?" I asked. He stared at me, which I felt to be quite piercing. "I was going through Fu Ting's files." "Ah…" Well...but I remembered that I saw his silhouette outside the evidence department where Guozhi kept all the forensic samples. I…

The barmaid said, "I know. That man slightly tilted his head in your direction." She then saw the man coming into the light, and his handsome face with his bluish-grey obsidians came into view. His eyes were twinkling in amusement, and his lips were etched into a faint smile. "It would be interesting to meet him. Even without the dog, he detected me." The barmaid smiled, tiptoed, and kissed his lips. "Right. I have a feeling that we are going to meet again soon with that duo, sorry trio. For now, what…
