Chapter 28 The Son of Uncle Jiu

In the soft moonlight, Su Tianyu gazed at the young man sitting in the chair, his eyes filled with astonishment. Although he had roughly guessed the other party's identity before coming, he was still incredibly shocked when they actually met.

The mine tunnel three hundred and seventy meters underground had collapsed, and the underground river had washed away most of the structures. How had he survived?

The young man was none other than Uncle Jiu's son. He looked at Su Tianyu, the festering scars on his forehead a shocking sight.

"I don't have much time. The tunnel's been blown, and the police system will soon lock onto my identity." Uncle Jiu's son was surprisingly calm, perhaps because after experiencing this mining disaster, nothing could make him panic anymore.

Su Tianyu calmed himself and bent down to sit next to him, "We can find a way to send you away."

"No, things aren't over yet. I can't leave, and I don't want to leave." Uncle Jiu's son refused without hesitation, "From the moment I came out, I've been carrying the lives of one hundred and twelve miners on my back. Among them are my friends, and my father. They no longer have the chance to speak, and I have to speak for them."

Su Tianyu turned to look at him, "Do you know, Bao Long Mining and the Regulatory Committee...!"

Uncle Jiu's son interrupted Su Tianyu, "Don't worry, I won't implicate the association, nor will I implicate anyone else. In fact... I can even help you."

The two looked at each other. Su Tianyu excitedly advised, "You're still young. Where there's life, there's hope."

"Hehe, you have no idea what I've been through. Some people live in happiness, some live in pain. I know better than you what I'm doing." Uncle Jiu's son lowered his head, his voice hoarse, "If I don't get this done, I won't be able to move on."

Uncle Jiu's son didn't tell Su Tianyu how he escaped, nor did he talk about his experiences in the mine, so the latter couldn't truly empathize with his reactions and behavior.

In the moonlight, Uncle Jiu's son rubbed his palms and said softly, "I originally... still had a little hope and hesitation, but as soon as I came out... my mom committed suicide by taking medicine, hehe, it's better that she's gone, so she doesn't have to suffer."

Listening to the other party's words, Su Tianyu felt that it was difficult to persuade him with words, but if Uncle Jiu's son was allowed to continue, and things got out of control, then the Bao Long Group and the Regulatory Committee would dump all the dirt on the association, and the result could be fatal.

"You have to come with me." Su Tianyu insisted on his view, "I can protect you."

Uncle Jiu's son looked at him, "Is that an order?"

"You have to for...!" Su Tianyu got up and was about to grab his arm.

Uncle Jiu's son lifted his shirt, revealing the explosives around his waist, "President, I respect you very much. You are all good people, going to this extent with Bao Long Group for us ghosts buried underground who no one cares about... I am very grateful to you. I know your concerns, I won't bring the fire to the association, and don't force me."

Looking into his eyes, Su Tianyu could clearly feel his despair and determination.

"I waited for you to come, because I wanted to tell you, be prepared for tomorrow night, I will directly confront Bao Long and the Regulatory Committee." Uncle Jiu's son slowly got up, "Make good use of me, and make good use of this matter...!"

...

In the alley at the front entrance of the botanical garden, Da Bai smoked a cigarette, his eyes darting around furtively.

"Buzz!"

Just then, a surge of powerful engine sounds arose, and five or six cars came from the intersection and stopped at the main entrance of the botanical garden.

Da Bai nervously took two quick puffs of his cigarette, blinking as he looked at the main entrance.

The car doors opened one by one, and a group of men got out and walked towards the security room of the botanical garden.

The vehicles they used, as well as the clothes they wore, looked no different from normal people, but Da Bai immediately recognized them as police.

"Damn it!"

Da Bai came back to his senses and immediately pulled out his phone.

Inside the security room, the head of the security guards on duty, draped in clothes, asked the people outside the room, "Who are you?!"

Fei Zi Zheng looked at him expressionlessly and said in a low voice, "We are from the Police Department. You received a cooperation request, right?"

"Yes, yes, I just received the call."

"Open the gate, we'll go in and take a look." Fei Zi Zheng ordered.

"Okay, okay, I'll immediately notify the patrol guards in the garden and have them...!"

"No need, no need to notify anyone. Just open the gate and continue sleeping in the security room." Fei Zi Zheng immediately refused.

"Okay, okay!" The head of security heard this and picked up the remote control, opening the wide electronic gate.

Fei Zi Zheng waved his hand, and all the stopped vehicles outside drove into the courtyard, turning off their lights, and quietly turned into the courtyard's parking lot.

At the main entrance, Fei Zi Zheng looked down at his watch and immediately ordered, "Disguise yourselves as security guards, search separately. If you find anything unusual, do not act rashly, report immediately!"

"Yes!"

After everyone nodded, they quickly left.

In the alley across the street, Da Bai first called Zhou Tonghui, but the latter didn't answer. Then he contacted Su Tianyu, "Quick, get out of here, people from the Police Department have entered the garden!"

"Are you sure?"

"Damn it, I saw it with my own eyes, hurry up and get out...!" Da Bai shouted anxiously.

The two ended the call, and Su Tianyu looked up and said, "The Police Department is here."

"Six o'clock tomorrow night, wait for news." Uncle Jiu's son looked at Su Tianyu and waved his hand, "Let's go!"

Su Tianyu clenched his fists and said urgently, "Are you really not coming with me? Yes, the people who are gone can't come back to life, but the living are still alive, your sister...!"

Uncle Jiu's son paused for a moment, "I waited for you to come, because I wanted to tell you, I helped the association, and I hope the association can take care of her...!"

Su Tianyu was speechless.

The two looked at each other for a moment, and Uncle Jiu's son turned and left, "Don't tell her that I'm still alive!"

Su Tianyu watched his back as it slowly disappeared into the night, and could only turn and leave.

...

In the dark woods.

Uncle Jiu's son walked quickly, took out a cell phone from his pocket, and dialed the police department's report hotline.

"Hello, this is The Dragon City...!"

"I'm looking for the team leader of the tunnel explosion case's task force. I have important clues!"

"...Okay, please wait!"

After a while, Fei Zi Zheng's phone call came.

Uncle Jiu's son walked into the lush weeds, took off his coat, and pressed the answer button, "Hello."

"I am the leader of the task force."

"I am the person you are looking for."

"...!" Fei Zi Zheng was stunned when he heard this.

"You're in the garden, right? Stop looking, I've already left." Uncle Jiu's son said in a low voice, "I still have four packs of explosives, I'll use them all at once tomorrow night, you get the police force ready!"

After saying that, the phone hung up, and Fei Zi Zheng immediately had someone check the caller's number, but unexpectedly it was Yang Decheng's cell phone.
