“Name.”

“Wang Bing.”

“Age.”

“31.”

“Why did you kill?”

“I said… they broke into my house with weapons first and stabbed my wife. I acted in self-defense!”

The South City Military and Police Bureau was overcrowded.

Inside the interrogation room.

Wang Bing’s hands were locked to the iron bars, his face anxious and irritated.

“But the victim's family said… it was because you took their things, and they wanted to get them back, so they went to your house.” A military policeman looked at Wang Bing expressionlessly and asked in a deep voice, “Do you know what crime it is to rob?”

“According to the wartime agreement, after a level-two alert is activated, if you commit heinous crimes such as robbery and kidnapping, we have the right to kill you directly!”

Wang Bing was furious. “Why do you believe them and not me? Does she have any evidence that I robbed them?”

“Of course!” The military policeman expressionlessly took out some packaged food from the evidence bag next to him, and then took out a receipt, saying, “According to the clues provided by the other party, we found the items that had been robbed from the other party in your house, and more importantly… we found a large number of items in your warehouse that had been reported to the police as being robbed by a group of grain-robbing gangs wandering around here.”

“How do you explain this?” The military policeman stared into Wang Bing’s eyes and suddenly shouted, “Are you… one of the grain-robbing gang members? Speak!”

Wang Bing felt a throbbing in his head. He resisted his anger and said, “My dad was just beaten to death by that gang of grain robbers a few days ago. Do you think I’m one of them?”

The military policeman squinted at Wang Bing for a long time, and then said, “Cases of criminal gangs killing each other due to uneven distribution of spoils are very common.”

Wang Bing was stunned when he heard this, and then the veins on his forehead bulged, and he stood up straight like a mad beast and rushed forward, even shaking the iron bars. “I fuck your mother!”

“Be honest!”

“Sit down!”

Seeing this, two military policemen surrounded him, twisted Wang Bing’s arms behind his back, and pressed him to the ground.

Wang Bing felt a piercing pain in his arm. His face was pressed against the cold floor, and he looked at the two military policemen with hatred in his eyes. “You are powerless when bandits kill for profit… but you refuse to let go when people kill to protect themselves. Are you worthy of the national emblem on your shoulders?”

“You say I’m not worthy of the national emblem on my shoulders?” A dark-faced military policeman’s eyebrows twitched wildly when he heard this, and anger appeared on his face. “Since the world changed, the entire South City has been completely chaotic. Robbery, kidnapping, theft, every crime you can imagine has increased more than tenfold! The EU is provoking us on the border, and eight out of ten of the military and police in South City have been transferred away. We are on standby 24 hours a day, and after deducting meal times, I can only sleep for four hours!”

At this time, Wang Bing noticed that the military policeman's eyes were full of bloodshot veins.

“Do you know how many alarm calls I have to answer in a day, how many crime scenes I have to deal with, and how many criminals I have to arrest?”

“Do you think we don’t want the situation to stabilize? Do you think we like this chaotic situation, being scolded as useless by our superiors and as stupid pigs by the public?”

“The entire South City police system now only has five hundred people! Five hundred people! They need to maintain the security of the entire South City, which covers 3,400 square kilometers, and protect the safety of hundreds of thousands of people! Even if we split each of us into three, it wouldn’t be enough!”

The dark-faced military policeman was emotional, and his chest rose and fell sharply.

Since the world changed, no one has had an easy time.

These military and police officers are the busiest.

Ordinary people only need to consider the source of food and the safety of their families, while these five hundred military and police officers have to face the safety of the entire South City.

They need to keep running around South City to patrol, constantly deal with criminals, and constantly carry out arrest operations.

Wang Bing’s expression changed slightly.

“I haven’t been home for ten days, and I haven’t even had time to talk to my family…” The dark-faced military policeman’s voice lowered, and he took off his police hat, looking at Wang Bing expressionlessly. “The reason I’m telling you this isn’t to tell you how hard we’re working and to gain sympathy. I just want to tell you that in this environment, no one has an easy or comfortable time! We have to investigate all acts that disrupt social order, including that grain-robbing gang, and you too!”

After hearing the dark-faced military policeman’s words, the expression on Wang Bing’s face was no longer as impulsive and angry as before, but his breathing was still heavy.

“If it’s really the other party who broke in with weapons first, intending to hurt people, and you have nothing to do with the grain-robbing gang… I will try to get a not-guilty verdict for you.” The dark-faced military policeman looked at Wang Bing and said seriously, “But the prerequisite is that you must tell me the whole thing truthfully, without missing a single detail! Including the reason why those stolen items appeared in your house.”

A look of intense struggle appeared in Wang Bing’s eyes. He was silent for a long time, and then looked at the dark-faced military policeman and said, “Can I trust you?”

The dark-faced military policeman replied solemnly, “I will not let go of any bad person, but I will not wrong any good person! Trust us, we want social stability more than you do.”

“This matter involves many people… I can only tell you the identity of our leader and what happened, I need to keep the identities of the others a secret!” Wang Bing said slowly.

…

Li Tianran sat in the warehouse, and he realized that his artificial rainmaking plan might have to be postponed for a while.

Because he didn’t have the crucial drones, and he didn’t have enough shells to launch the dry ice hundreds of meters into the air…

The points store did sell these things, but the prices were outrageous.

A drone with a carrying capacity of about fifty kilograms actually sold for the sky-high price of 900,000 points.

The little points that Li Tianran had managed to save would instantly be gone.

“Let’s put this matter on hold for now… and do it when I have enough points in the future.” Li Tianran smiled bitterly.

He had thought things were too simple.

Just then, the radar sentry sent a notification.

“Warning, there are visitors at the farm gate!”

“The other party consists of three men and one woman. After scanning, they are equipped with Type 54 pistols. The threat level is 50!”

Li Tianran was stunned when he heard this.

Type 54 pistol?

Isn’t that the model only equipped by the military and police?

Could it be that the visitors are a few military policemen?

At the same time, the image at the gate was quickly transmitted to Li Tianran’s mind.

Standing at the gate were four uninvited guests in military and police uniforms!

Li Tianran’s nerves instantly tensed up.

Bang bang bang!

At this moment, the farm gate was knocked on fiercely.

“Is anyone there?” The policewoman spoke, her voice like a nightingale.

But Li Tianran was in no mood to appreciate the beautiful voice at this time.

In an instant, countless thoughts flashed through his mind.

Was Liang Tianyu’s affair exposed?

Or was his identity when he broke into Ren Xiao’s villa discovered?
