I started by watching videos, and I chose 10,000 combat power.

Luo Fei's gaze fell on Director Qin's face, filled with anticipation, waiting for him to continue.

Director Qin cleared his throat, his fingertips unconsciously tracing the edge of the table, and said, word by word, "Zhao Zhiwei, your former uncle, was convicted of multiple crimes including bribery, fabrication of evidence, and transfer of property. After a thorough investigation by the procuratorate, the evidence chain was complete and conclusive. Ultimately, he was sentenced to life imprisonment, deprived of his political rights for life, and fined two million yuan."

His voice was calm, yet it carried the unquestionable authority of the law.

"Zhao Dechang, your aunt's former father-in-law, knowingly broke the law and was convicted of multiple crimes, including harboring a criminal and accepting bribes. He was also sentenced to life imprisonment and deprived of his political rights for life."

Director Qin paused, his Adam's apple bobbing slightly, his tone becoming even more serious.

"Hou Guifen, your aunt's former mother-in-law, was sentenced to life imprisonment and deprived of her political rights for life for committing heinous crimes such as hiring a murderer. The circumstances of the crimes were extremely heinous and the social impact was extremely bad."

After a brief pause, his voice finally betrayed his barely suppressed anger: "Hou Yong, Hou Guifen's younger brother, is the head of a criminal gang that has been entrenched for many years. He has been convicted of dozens of crimes, including organizing a criminal organization, intentional injury, extortion, and illegal detention. His crimes are numerous, and his hands are stained with the blood of innocent people. He has aroused great public indignation."

Director Qin's voice suddenly rose, filled with barely suppressed indignation.

"With the approval of the Supreme Court, the death penalty has been carried out in accordance with the law. His organized crime group has also been completely eradicated, and all relevant personnel involved in the case have been sentenced in accordance with the law. Among them, the ringleader, whose crimes were extremely serious and who should be sentenced to death, has also been executed by firing squad along with Hou Yong. Justice has finally been served."

After saying this, Director Qin picked up the thermos on the table and took a big gulp of water, as if trying to suppress the surging emotions in his heart.

"In addition, the matter of Wang Zihao and his son in Qingyang County has also been settled."

He took a deep breath and continued, "Wang Zihao had long been a criminal in the area, oppressing the people and committing multiple crimes, including affray, intentional injury, and illegal detention. He was sentenced to death with immediate execution and deprived of his political rights for life."

"His father, a state cadre, was blinded by greed and committed crimes such as abuse of power, bribery, and harboring criminals. He was also sentenced to life imprisonment and deprived of his political rights for life."

"This father and son are truly in cahoots; they deserve their fate."

Luo Fei's expression remained unchanged after listening.

His fingers, which were resting on his knees, paused for a split second before slowly lowering to the ground. He spoke calmly, "It's good that they've been sentenced. I don't care whether they live or die; these people all deserved it."

"My only request is that they stop harassing my aunt and let her live a peaceful life."

Director Qin gently placed the thermos on the corner of the table, sat up straighter, and his tense expression gradually returned to normal: "Don't worry, they have no chance of getting out. Life imprisonment, and no possibility of commutation. They will spend the rest of their lives in prison."

"Then I will prepare to convene a special meeting. I will send letters as soon as possible to invite experts and scholars in relevant fields to ensure that the meeting can proceed smoothly and come up with practical and feasible solutions."

Luo Fei simply replied "Okay," stood up, and did so swiftly and decisively.

Director Qin did not get up to see him off, but simply nodded and calmly watched him leave.

With a slight thought, Luo Fei vanished silently from the office.

The next second, he was already standing in his own courtyard in Liuxi Village.

Li Xiulan and Luo Weidong were sitting on straw mats in the courtyard, their eyes closed, practicing the Qi-inducing technique that Luo Fei had taught them with focused concentration.

Their breathing was even and long, and their faces had a faint blush, clearly indicating that they were already in the mood.

Luo Fei didn't disturb them, but just stood quietly to the side and watched for a while, a hint of relief flashing in his eyes.

He gently pushed open the courtyard gate and walked towards the river.

Along the road, several children wearing thick cotton-padded coats chased and played by the roadside, their clear laughter echoing in the air like silver bells.

They held bright red candied hawthorns in their hands, the glistening sugar syrup gleaming with an enticing amber light in the sunlight, making one's mouth water.

When the children saw Luo Fei, they were stunned for a moment, their round eyes filled with curiosity. Then they immediately recognized him, stopped, and looked up at him, calling out in their childish voices, "Hello, Brother Luo Fei."

After receiving a gentle smile from Luo Fei, they ran off happily, their joyful laughter carried away by the wind, blending into the unique tranquility and beauty of the countryside.

The various wild animals that used to gather on that open space by the river have long since disappeared.

Only the flat ground and a few footprints of varying depths remain, testifying to the past hustle and bustle.

Luo Fei stood by the river for a moment, feeling the fresh air brought by the river breeze, mixed with the fragrance of soil and grass, and the last trace of gloom in his heart disappeared.

Luo Fei stood by the river when his phone suddenly vibrated. It was a message from Lao Wu: "Mr. Luo, the surveillance cameras in the mountains haven't captured any more images of large wild animals approaching the village. The police have withdrawn, and the cordon has been removed. The Qingyang County government has issued a statement saying that the animals have returned to the mountains and reminds everyone not to come specifically to see them."

"In addition, the announcement also mentioned your Xianglong Museum, which directs visitors toward Longhai City."

After reading the message, Luo Fei replied, "Okay, thank you for your hard work."

He put away his phone, turned around, and walked back the way he came.

A few people were gathered in front of the bulletin board at the village entrance, whispering among themselves.

He went closer and saw a new notice posted on it, with black and white text that was very eye-catching.

"Dear villagers and tourists: As confirmed by higher authorities, the large wild animals that had previously gathered in the mountains behind the village have dispersed on their own and returned to the forest. The warning line has been removed, and villagers can resume normal travel and production activities."

"At the same time, we would like to remind all villagers that if they find any trace of wild animals, please report it to the public security authorities in a timely manner. Do not approach or feed them on your own to avoid danger."

"In addition, the Xianglong Museum in Longhai City has recently added several new exhibits, all of which are precious cultural relics. Villagers and tourists are welcome to visit."

The document was signed by the Qingyang County Public Security Bureau and the Liuxi Village Committee.

Luo Fei stood in front of the bulletin board for a moment, a relaxed smile appearing on his lips.

He turned and walked towards home, his steps much lighter.

Liuxi Village has finally returned to its former peace and tranquility, and everything is moving in a positive direction.
