Police Chief's Anti-Organized Crime Storm

In Louhua Village, a figure appeared at the door of Aunt Yao's house. The person glanced furtively to the left and right, and seeing no one, cautiously approached the door and peered inside. Suddenly, a hoarse voice came from inside: "Who's there?"

The visitor was startled and cautiously glanced into the house. Seeing that there was only an old woman, he was slightly relieved and quickly replied, "Grandma, I'm just passing by. I'd like to ask for a drink of water at your house. Is that alright?" The man put on a smile, but a cold glint flashed in his eyes.

"There's a small shop up ahead, just a few steps away. I'm an old woman at home, it's inconvenient for me to boil water. The water I have is leftover from a few days ago, I'm worried it's not hygienic. You should go buy bottled water." Aunt Yao turned her head to the side, but she felt a little uneasy. This person's voice was very high-pitched and thin, which seemed a bit abnormal.

The newcomer's face darkened. He glanced at the old woman, then looked around the house again to make sure no one else was there before carefully stepping inside.

Suddenly, Old Mrs. Yao's voice rang out again: "What's wrong with you? Didn't I tell you that the water in the house isn't clean? Why are you still coming home? If you don't leave, I'm going to call for help."

Just as the man was about to speak, suddenly, the old woman called out, "Big Yellow!"

"Woof! Woof! Woof! Woof woof!" A burly yellow dog suddenly darted out from nearby and pounced on the person, who was so frightened that he immediately turned and ran, scrambling out of the house. Behind him, the big yellow dog was still hot on his heels. The old woman quickly called out, "Big Yellow, come back!"

The big yellow dog reluctantly looked at the fleeing figure, its face full of ferocity, and barked fiercely a few more times.

The old woman was puzzled. Who was that just now? They didn't sound like someone from the village, just passing by? Her house wasn't at the village entrance, nor was it the first house at the village entrance. How could they suddenly come to her house? Strange.

The old woman was filled with doubt. Gao Lan hadn't come to see her for many days. She wondered if something had happened to her. No, she had to find a way to see her. She was a good girl; nothing could have happened to her. This Gaoshan County was very corrupt. She had heard that there were many corrupt officials. It seemed that Gao Lan's previous county magistrate had died in Gaoshan County. Thinking of this, the old woman was startled and quickly spat out, "Pah, pah, pah! Gao Lan is a lucky person and a good girl. Nothing will happen to her."

But her unease grew stronger. Almost half a month had passed, and Gao Lan had neither called nor come to see her. Could something have really happened to her?

The old woman's heart skipped a beat. After thinking for a moment, she picked up her bamboo cane and walked outside. No, she had to find a way to see her; that was her daughter.

However, the old lady did not know that Gao Lan had already passed away.

Behind a tree not far away, Zhao Jiu, his face grim, hid to the side, his eyes fixed on the house. He was somewhat unwilling. That old lady was Gao Lanxin's godmother. As long as he had the old lady in his hands, he didn't believe Lin Ying would not commit a crime! Moreover, that woman would never have imagined that he would have a backup plan. Perhaps even Wang Dalong would not have imagined that he not only did not leave, but was also preparing to pull off a big heist.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a surge of pride. Suddenly, his eyes lit up as he saw the old lady slowly walking out of the house and reaching out to close the door. She was carrying a bag, so she was going on a long trip.

The opportunity has arrived! Zhao Jiu quickly hid himself, his eyes fixed on Old Lady Yao. The latter slowly walked out of the house, and Da Huang followed, obediently rubbing against the old lady's leg. Suddenly, Da Huang looked up and gazed into the distance behind the big tree, his eyes flashing with a fierce light, his vigilance returning.

"Dahuang, I want to go see Lanlan. She hasn't come to see me or even called in so long, has something happened to her?" The old woman muttered to herself, slowly walking out of the alleyway leading to her house. Meanwhile, villagers passing by whispered amongst themselves…

"You know, County Magistrate Gao Lan has been dead for so many days, and Aunt Yao probably still doesn't know. This old lady just had a daughter, and now something has happened to her. She's really pitiful."

"Stop talking!" One of the women saw Old Lady Yao, her expression changed, and she walked away. The middle-aged woman who had just been talking also quickly left.

The old lady was completely stunned. What did that mean? Gao Lan was in trouble? No, no, she was a good child, Gao Lan was a good girl, how could something have happened to her? No, no, she won't be in trouble, she definitely won't be in trouble.

"Old man, it's a promise, you have to protect Gao Lan, you must protect our Lanlan, if anything really happens to her, even if I'm in the underworld, I won't care about you." The old woman's heart sank to the bottom, and her feet quickened. No, she had to go see Gao Lan, she had to see her, that was her child!

The old woman staggered out of the village entrance and, led by Da Huang, slowly walked towards the bus stop. A gloomy figure stared intently at the old woman's back and followed her from a distance.

At Tianlong Mansion, Wang Dalong ultimately did not make up his mind to take action. Watching Lin Ying and her group drive away, Tong Yuhu and dozens of security guards all showed expressions of resentment. However, many of them were actually quite relieved. If something had happened to Lin Ying today, none of them would have escaped either.

"Alright, go back and treat your injuries. Go and call Ah Hu over." Wang Dalong returned to the living room with a cold face, lit a cigarette, and felt uneasy about his older brother's phone call. It seemed that a big storm was brewing up above. What could it be? Was it related to his Tianlong Group? Could it be... a crackdown on... organized crime?

The mere thought of that word sent a chill down Wang Dalong's spine. If it really was a crackdown on organized crime, then he had to transfer all his assets away. Otherwise, once he was targeted, things would get complicated. Moreover, those account books were now in Lin Ying's hands, and they hadn't been found yet, which would be even more troublesome. Once they were discovered, his Tianlong Group would be completely finished. No, those account books had to be retrieved.

Thinking of this, he quickly picked up the phone again and dialed that number: "Hello, have you found the ledger? There's no time left, we have to hurry."

"Not yet. Lin Ying's people are watching too closely; I haven't had a chance to make a move. You should look for someone else!"

"No one is more suitable than you. Hurry up and find someone. As soon as you find someone, let me know immediately. I promise I won't let you down."

"I told you, I'm not sure." The man was getting a little angry. Searching for something in Lin Ying's hands was really not a job for a human being; he was under too much pressure.

"I believe in you, you will definitely find it. Just take a little more time. Lin Ying has left during this time, so you have a chance, don't you? She won't be going back so soon."

"If you continue like this, our cooperation ends here."

"Really? I sent someone to check on your sister yesterday. She seemed a bit emotionally unstable. You don't want anything to happen to her, do you?"

"You, damn it, Wang Dalong, you dare?"

"You should know very well whether I dare or not. I've said it before, all I want are those ledgers. Otherwise, we'll all go our separate ways."

The person on the other end of the phone gritted their teeth in anger, but was helpless and could only nod reluctantly: "Okay, I promise you, wait for my news."
