The black-skinned squad leader's pistol was waving in front of him, and the passerby trembled in fright and dropped the cloth bag in his hand.

"Clang!" The crisp sound attracted the attention of the black-skinned squad leader, who picked up the cloth bag first. The golden luster flashed briefly in the moonlight, making the black-skinned dog's eyes turn red!

The dark-skinned squad leader stared greedily at the gold, his eyes gleaming with murderous intent, and his gun instinctively aimed at a passerby... A dark and windy night, perfect for murder and arson!

Just as he was about to make his move, Zheng Chaoyang's grinning voice rang out again: "Captain, what's going on? It's late, you should go back and rest. The brothers will take care of the rest!"

"Halt!" The black-skinned squad leader was startled, his voice cracking with urgency.

Zheng Chaoyang was a squad leader, so everyone got a share. Given the opportunity to take it all for himself, the dark-skinned squad leader naturally wasn't willing to be left out.

Sensing his nervousness, the dark-skinned squad leader softened his tone and casually said, "It's nothing serious. Just someone passing by bumped into me and is apologizing right now! You can go back now!"

"Alright! Company Commander, I'll be off then!"

Zheng Chaoyang seemed to believe his story and turned to walk out of the alley. Just as he was about to leave the alley, a passerby next to the black-skinned squad leader suddenly shouted at him:

"We absolutely cannot let that black dog get away, or we'll both be exposed. Shoot!"

As he spoke, the passerby pulled out a pistol and fired several shots in Zheng Chaoyang's direction. Fortunately, Zheng Chaoyang had already reached the alley entrance and leaped out of the alley with a side dive.

Seemingly enraged by betrayal, Zheng Chaoyang, temporarily safe, did not immediately flee. Instead, he shouted defiantly:

"Captain, the brothers believe in you and follow you. Just because we found out you're a Communist, you want to kill me? Today, I sever all ties with you!" He then pulled out his pistol and fired back.

On the other side, although Blackie was terrified by the sudden shooting from the passerby, he instinctively cried out to stop Zheng Chaoyang when he saw Zheng Chaoyang pointing the gun at him. However, he only managed to utter the three words "Zheng Chaoyang" before being shot and falling to the ground!

"Bang bang bang!"

The dark-skinned squad leader's still-clear eyes were filled with confusion. He seemed bewildered as to why, in a perfectly legitimate act of murder and robbery, he himself had ended up dead!

The bystander who had fired the first shot suddenly reappeared from nowhere. He solemnly saluted the dark-skinned corpse: "Comrade, the Party and the people will not forget you!"

Before leaving, he shouted in Zheng Chaoyang's direction: "Zheng Chaoyang, you black-skinned dog, we Communists will never forget the blood debt we owe you today!"

Hearing the coded message from his comrade, Zheng Chaoyang understood immediately. Shouting "Arrest the Communists!" he charged towards the spot where Blackie had fallen, gun in hand.

Sure enough, there was a cloth bag next to the black dog. After Zheng Chaoyang bent down to confirm that the black dog's captain was dead, he picked up the bag and continued to chase after his comrades in the direction they had fled.

The brief gunshot had already startled countless homeless people huddled in some unknown corner. It's true that Beijing, the ancient capital of six dynasties, even its homeless population possessed a certain "shrewdness"—

During the gunfight, no one ran, but now that the gunfire has stopped, even the beggars who usually stagger around and can barely make ends meet are scrambling away faster than anyone else!

The two chased each other into an abandoned alley. After confirming that no one was around, they hid in some ruins and met up.

The man buying the medicine spoke first, looking at the cloth bag still in Zheng Chaoyang's hand with surprise: "Captain He asked me to deliver this. He said you know what to do!"

"Thank you! Please tell Captain He that I..." Zheng Chaoyang was about to thank him when he saw the other man's gun suddenly pointed at him.

The comrade who bought the medicine took a dozen steps back, fired a shot into Zheng Chaoyang's arm, and then hurriedly left, leaving Zheng Chaoyang bewildered in the wind. Under the bright moonlight, a faint sound could be heard:

"You're welcome! This is what Captain He instructed!"

"Aww!"

Zheng Chaoyang yelled and collapsed to the ground in pain. Taking a breath, he gritted his teeth, got up, and hurried towards the black dog. He had to hide the items in the squad leader's house discreetly before anyone else arrived!

Even so, he couldn't resist adding, "That Captain He, really..."

From the shadows, He Ping'an suddenly appeared and continued the conversation: "Really what?"

"Uh...cough cough cough!" Zheng Chaoyang jumped in fright: "Captain He, what are you doing here? Don't you believe me?"

Turn the tables!

He Ping'an pointed to Zheng Chaoyang's bleeding arm, "This proves that you really didn't do a good job!"

This is also why He Ping'an suddenly appeared...

The original plan was for Zheng Chaoyang to first plant evidence at Hei Pi's house, then pursue him. Now…? Knowing it's an act, knowing his comrades are waiting for him in hiding, why is Zheng Chaoyang in such a hurry to catch up?

He Ping'an really couldn't understand this!

Zheng Chaoyang froze, suddenly remembering He Ping'an's instructions at noon, and recalling the strange look on that comrade's face when he saw him carrying a cloth bag!

Then look at the bleeding arm... If bloodstains were left at Captain Blackie's house, forget about framing him, it's questionable whether he can even keep his current identity!

"To be honest, ever since I graduated from police academy, I've been dealing with thugs, hooligans, and rapists all the time, or running errands for the concubines of my superiors!"

This is the first time I've experienced such an intense scene, and also the first time I've killed someone. I acted impulsively! I apologize! Realizing he had ruined the plan, Zheng Chaoyang readily admitted his mistake.

"Let's go!" He Ping'an didn't waste any words. As an acting comrade, he couldn't possibly bypass Luo Chengjun to deal with the underground party comrades in Beiping. Therefore, there was no point in saying anything more.

"Captain, um... this?" Zheng Chaoyang raised the cloth bag in his hand with his uninjured arm!

"Sigh..." He Ping'an sighed speechlessly, "You graduated from police academy, you must have studied crime scene investigation, right? Since you know how to investigate a crime scene, why don't you try to fake it?"

The moment Zheng Chaoyang chased after him with the cloth bag, He Ping'an had already thought of a way to deal with him. Otherwise, he wouldn't have allowed the comrade who bought medicine to injure Zheng Chaoyang.

"Right now, Blackie's family should be wailing and grieving over him, and Blackie's dogs nearby should be arriving soon. Now is the perfect opportunity," He Ping'an analyzed, glancing at Zheng Chaoyang's bleeding arm.

"So what if there are drops of blood? As long as you're the first to search Blackie's house afterwards, who will know that the blood drops came from you entering twice! Even if there's suspicion, who has evidence to prove you're lying?"

"Captain He, you're amazing! I admire you!" Zheng Chaoyang's eyes lit up. He gave a thumbs up!

He Ping'an readily accepted Zheng Chaoyang's compliments. After following Detective Conan for over 1000 episodes since childhood, he must be exhausted!
