Perhaps an outsider, or perhaps the workshop they spoke of, the owner had a deep impression of Lin Qianqian, while Li Chonglou frowned and asked, "Workshop? Where is that from?"
The owner tentatively asked, "Are you here for tourism?"
Li Chonglou nodded, but to get some useful information from the other party, he quietly took out his phone from his pocket and paid the owner first.
"Boss, to be honest, the woman you just mentioned is the one I like, and I came here to find her, so..."
Upon hearing the notification of the transfer, the owner's smile immediately lit up, and he said with a kind expression, "Young man, I understand! Who hasn't been young!"
But getting back to the point, the owner's expression also became serious: "Young man, since that's the case, you need to hurry over and see. This workshop is a traditional specialty of ours. To put it bluntly, it's a gray area. Anything goes in there, gambling and the like. In short, there's only one word: chaos!"
"Your friend, as I saw her, is also a beauty, and she's alone. Although it's daytime, if you're late, something unexpected might happen."
After speaking, the owner directly gave the address. As expected, it was not in the town but on the other side of the mountain behind the town.
Li Chonglou's expression suddenly turned grim. The fact that he could say the words "gray area" so fluently indicated that such matters had become habitual here.
But this was still within Shangjing. Li Chonglou almost instantly smelled a problem.
After thanking the owner, Li Chonglou quickly rushed towards the other side of the mountain.
However, he did not expect that after he left, the owner, who had been all smiles, suddenly sneered and picked up the phone beside him.
"Dead dog, more work has come in, get ready!"
On the other side.
On the other side of the mountain, just as the owner had said, there was an open space covering tens of thousands of square meters. Looking down from above, it was evident that the surroundings were enclosed, like a fenced-off area.
Inside, there were only single-story black buildings.
There were four entrances and exits, but each was guarded by a checkpoint with dedicated personnel stationed there.
And in one of the houses, Lin Qianqian, dressed in casual wear, sat on a wooden chair with her head bowed.
Before long, a burly man, nearly 1.9 meters tall, walked in.
The burly man had a face full of rough flesh, clearly someone not to be trifled with. Seeing Lin Qianqian, who, despite her casual attire, did not hide her气质, his eyes clearly flashed with a strange glint.
"You are Miss Lin?"
The burly man spoke in a deep voice. Lin Qianqian looked up and, seeing that he was alone, secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Yes, I am."
The burly man suddenly chuckled, walked to the wooden table beside him, and sat down, staring intently at Lin Qianqian.
"I heard you're looking for someone, or is it a relative?"
Lin Qianqian looked directly into his eyes and nodded again: "I heard that as long as you pay money here, you can find anyone."
"That's true."
The burly man suddenly stood up. Having just sat down, this sudden movement made Lin Qianqian's expression freeze.
"But we only help those who truly need it, not the police."
Lin Qianqian's face changed drastically. "Police" was the term used by the underworld for the police!
This meant that they already knew her identity?
However, thinking that he might just be trying to bluff her, Lin Qianqian still tried to remain calm and said, "I don't know what you mean, I just want to find someone."
The burly man smiled, but it was a cold smile.
"Director Lin, stop pretending. Do you think everyone around you is decent?"
The moment "Director Lin" was uttered, Lin Qianqian finally realized her identity had been exposed!
However, daring to come alone, she had some confidence. If nothing else, although she was not a martial artist, she had reached her current position through her own efforts. For ordinary people, three to five of them would be no match for her!
What's more, she had her own subordinates waiting outside, and as soon as she sent a message, a large force would rush in!
Therefore, Lin Qianqian directly revealed her identity and stated plainly, "Hei Biao, thirteen years ago you killed a family of six in Yian and also killed three police officers. Afterward, you fled here. Do you think you can escape for a while, but can you escape for a lifetime?"
Lin Qianqian suddenly shouted and then skillfully pulled out a pistol from her clothes, pointing it directly at Hei Biao.
"You are too confident. You don't even search outsiders."
With the gun in hand, Lin Qianqian's confidence immediately increased. However, to her surprise, Hei Biao was completely unfazed.
He still sneered, "My Director Lin, why are you so adorably naive? If we searched you, would you still come in?"
Lin Qianqian's face changed: "What do you mean!"
Hei Biao's expression suddenly turned cold, and he said in a low voice, "Director Lin, you chose the wrong path. Since you've come to my place today, don't even think about leaving!"
Lin Qianqian tightly gripped the gun in her hand and stared fixedly at Hei Biao. She finally panicked. Everything was a top-secret operation, so why did they know everything?
However, seeing her panic, Hei Biao offered a final straw.
"You're not still thinking about those people outside, are you? Don't worry, although we're not so arrogant as to confront the General Bureau, we're not fools either. Take a look at your phone."
Lin Qianqian's heart sank, but because she had the gun, and the distance was not enough for him to quickly close in, she released one hand to pick up the phone she hadn't been looking at.
Afraid of arousing suspicion, her phone had been in her pocket since she entered. When she took it out now, she found that it had no signal left!
"This is impossible! We agreed that if anything was out of the ordinary, they would immediately launch a full-scale assault!"
Hei Biao smiled: "I know that too. My informant told us everything. But, do you think there will be any anomalies?"
Lin Qianqian was stunned, not understanding Hei Biao's meaning for a moment.
Hei Biao shook his head: "It seems you're still young. I really don't understand how the General Bureau could let someone like you be the general负责人. Did you really get promoted through your looks?"
Lin Qianqian's eyes suddenly turned cold. She hated it most when people said such things to her!
This was not only an insult to her but also an insult to the General Bureau!
However, just as she was about to shoot, Hei Biao spoke again: "Director Lin, don't be impulsive. If you're going to die, at least be an informed ghost, right?"
Hei Biao smiled: "Of course, your phone won't have any signal, but we have the best hackers in all of Shangjing. Adjusting the data in the background is just a matter of moving our fingers!"
