Here, Chu Lingtian was startled by a strange voice from Liu Bingxue's phone.
Had Liu Bingxue been taken hostage by killers sent by the Jiang family?
He was immediately relieved upon hearing that Liu Bingxue was at the police station.
He knew that Xiao Lengyue must have found Liu Bingxue.
"Okay, I understand. Don't let her leave, I'll be there immediately!" Chu Lingtian said.
Then, he immediately drove to the police station.
Police Station.
Xiao Lengyue was once again summoned to the office by Director Wang Haiyang.
"What's happening? Have the eyewitnesses been brought back?"
Wang Haiyang glanced at his watch and said, "I've already announced that we'll be holding a press conference in half an hour."
The police had not yet announced the capture of the Cannibal King.
The panic among the citizens of Dachang City had not subsided; it had intensified.
Early in the morning, the police station's emergency lines were flooded with calls.
Wang Haiyang had originally wanted to wait until the entire case was clear before making any public announcement.
But he couldn't wait any longer. Even the mayor had called, urging Wang Haiyang to apprehend the Cannibal King as soon as possible.
If the Cannibal King wasn't brought to justice today, he would be replaced as police chief.
Heavy pressure, like small hills, weighed down on Wang Haiyang's shoulders.
It was accumulating, slowly but surely.
It was threatening to become a mountain that would crush him.
"Not yet... but the eyewitnesses are almost..."
Wang Haiyang said coldly, "If the situation isn't clarified in half an hour, then we won't bother with this matter. If any problems arise later, you will bear all responsibility!"
Xiao Lengyue had never seen Wang Haiyang so agitated and didn't dare to say more. She nodded and left.
Meanwhile, as Chu Lingtian's car arrived at the entrance of the police station, he saw a crowd gathered there.
With their cameras and microphones, they were clearly television reporters.
He ignored them and walked directly into the police station.
These reporters didn't realize that the person they should be interviewing was the Chu Lingtian walking before them.
It was Chu Lingtian who had dealt with the Cannibal King.
Not long after walking a few steps, Chu Lingtian saw Xiao Lengyue.
Xiao Lengyue rushed towards Chu Lingtian, appearing happier than if she had found money on the street.
"Chu Lingtian, you've finally arrived! Let's talk inside!"
Chu Lingtian said with a stern face, "Where is my wife?"
"She's resting in my office, don't worry."
"Lead the way!"
Chu Lingtian spoke to Xiao Lengyue as if she were a subordinate, issuing orders.
Under normal circumstances, Xiao Lengyue would have retorted.
But now, eager to understand the details of the Cannibal King case, she swallowed her pride and led Chu Lingtian to see Liu Bingxue.
As soon as they met, Liu Bingxue started to get up and leave.
"Wife, it's not that I don't want to marry you. You know I have a special mission this time, and there's danger at all times."
Chu Lingtian said earnestly, "I was afraid of implicating you, which is why I temporarily have no plans to get married!"
"Once I resolve the trouble, I'll immediately hold a wedding with you!"
Liu Bingxue was not unreasonable and had calmed down now.
Hearing Chu Lingtian's heartfelt words, she didn't insist on leaving anymore.
"Hey, Chu Lingtian, I helped you find your wife. Don't I owe you a favor? Will you return this favor to me?" Xiao Lengyue seized the opportunity to say.
Chu Lingtian turned around and said, "Fine, I do owe you a favor this time. Go tell Wang Haiyang to come and see me!"
"I'll wait for him here. Go!"
Wang Haiyang!
Chu Lingtian directly addressed the director by name and even demanded that Wang Haiyang come to see him. How arrogant!
Xiao Lengyue felt that Chu Lingtian was going too far.
"What are you waiting for? Just tell him that Chu Lingtian wants to see him, and he'll come naturally!" Chu Lingtian said again.
His gaze was fixed on Liu Bingxue, never shifting.
"This... alright! I'll go find the director then."
Hearing his tone, it seemed as if he knew Wang Haiyang well.
She couldn't worry about it anymore and turned to find Wang Haiyang.
After she left, Chu Lingtian helped Liu Bingxue to sit down.
"Wife, you can be angry with me in the future, but you can't ignore my calls!"
Chu Lingtian sighed and said, "You don't know how anxious I was. I almost turned Dachang City upside down looking for you!"
Pfft!
Liu Bingxue couldn't help but laugh, looking at Chu Lingtian.
"Is it that exaggerated? Besides, Dachang City isn't your backyard; you can just turn it upside down?"
Chu Lingtian said with a serious face, "I'm not joking. If I couldn't find you again, I really would have turned Dachang City upside down!"
"Let alone Dachang City, even the capital, I would have turned it upside down."
It sounded like a joke, but Chu Lingtian said it with extreme seriousness.
Liu Bingxue inexplicably believed him and nodded with a radiant smile.
"Alright! I won't do it like this anymore. You scared me so much!"
"I'm a living person in Dachang City, could I just disappear into thin air?"
Chu Lingtian grinned and pulled Liu Bingxue into his arms.
The couple made up!
Just then, there was a knock on the door from outside the room.
"Mr. Chu!"
The voice belonged to none other than Wang Haiyang.
Upon hearing that the eyewitness was Chu Lingtian, he seemed to understand something.
As soon as Chu Lingtian asked him to come, he scurried over immediately.
Behind him, Xiao Lengyue's expression was complex.
Surprise, confusion, speculation... various emotions flickered across her face like a revolving lantern.
Who exactly was this Chu Lingtian?
Wang Haiyang, the dignified director of the police station, was acting like a subordinate in front of him.
Yes, Wang Haiyang truly looked like Chu Lingtian's subordinate.
He seemed very afraid of Chu Lingtian, even terrified.
She had no idea that after the incident with her son, Wang Haiyang had secretly ordered people to investigate Chu Lingtian's identity.
Soon, an old friend who held a high position in the military replied with four words: "Do not inquire!"
These four words, though brief, carried a weight heavier than a thousand pounds.
The fewer the words, the greater the matter!
This also indicated that Chu Lingtian's identity was extraordinary and definitely not someone he could afford to offend.
Chu Lingtian's face lit up when he heard it was Wang Haiyang. "Come in!"
Liu Bingxue, standing beside him, was also taken aback. She had initially thought Chu Lingtian was just saying things in anger to Xiao Lengyue.
She hadn't expected Wang Haiyang to actually come, and from his voice, she could hear the reverence and fear he had for Chu Lingtian.
What exactly was Chu Lingtian's identity?
The director of the Dachang City police station was so respectful towards him?
Creak!
The door opened, and Wang Haiyang walked in from outside.
Just as Liu Bingxue had imagined, his face was filled with deference, like a subordinate greeting his superior.
"Greetings, Mr. Chu!"
