The night wind howled.

Several police cars and a military SUV roared in.

The car headlights pierced the darkness and came to an abrupt stop in front of the restaurant.

"Bang!"

The car door opened.

Several police officers quickly got out of the car, their hands on their holsters, their expressions serious.

The leader, a man in his forties, had a protruding belly and an air of official authority.

Immediately afterwards, several soldiers jumped out of the military off-road vehicle.

The last person to get off the train was a middle-aged man in military uniform with a single star on his epaulettes.

Li Guodong, commander of the 3rd Regiment of the Beijing Military Sub-district.

Li Shuze's uncle.

They were stunned as soon as they stepped outside the restaurant.

Military vehicles were everywhere.

Fully armed soldiers.

The soldiers' eyes were as cold as ice.

The muzzle of the gun gleamed eerily in the moonlight.

Li Guodong's pupils contracted slightly.

He could tell at a glance that these soldiers were not ordinary troops—

They are the elite of the elite.

His heart sank.

"Uncle—!!!"

A piercing shout came from the lobby of the restaurant.

Li Guodong's expression changed, and he rushed into the lobby.

When Li Shuze saw his uncle, it was like seeing a savior!

He staggered over and grabbed Li Guodong's arm.

"Uncle! You've finally arrived!"

His face was swollen like a pig's head, and his voice was trembling.

"It's him! And him too!"

He pointed at Tiezhu, then at Wu Lei.

"They attacked my bodyguards without provocation!"

"You've launched a brutal personal attack against me!"

"Uncle, you have to stand up for me!"

Li Guodong looked in the direction he was pointing.

Tie Zhu stood with his arms crossed, his face calm.

Wu Lei was looking down at his phone, the screen displaying a Dou Dizhu (a popular Chinese card game) game – "Call the Landlord".

Li Guodong glanced at the soldiers holding guns again.

His brows were furrowed.

He took a deep breath and shouted:

"Which unit are you from?!"

"Who's in charge here?!"

silence.

A deathly silence.

No one answered him.

Nobody even glanced at him.

The soldiers holding guns stood motionless, like human statues.

Xiaoya was chatting with Tong Ke.

"Coco, your skin is so nice! What skincare products do you use?"

Tong Ke looked bewildered and answered softly, "I...I used Dabao..."

Ye Feng was looking at the ceiling, as if it were a world-famous painting.

Wu Lei continued playing Dou Dizhu (a card game), shouting "Rob the landlord!", "I'll rob!", "Double!"

Li Wuguo, Zhang Zheng, and Liu Feng each found a place to lean against, their eyes glazed over.

Li Guodong's face turned a deep purplish-red.

He's been a regimental commander for so many years, when has he ever been ignored like this?!

"Okay...okay...okay!"

He gritted his teeth.

"We're all soldiers; I think we all know our duties!"

He pointed at Tie Zhu and Wu Lei.

"Soldiers do not have law enforcement authority!"

"Since you two have launched a violent personal attack without provocation, you have already broken the law!"

He looked at the police officer next to him.

"What are you waiting for? Arrest him first!"

He pointed to Tie Zhu, who was dressed in civilian clothes.

The lead policeman pulled out his badge with a slightly trembling hand.

He walked up to the iron pillar.

"Please...please come with us."

Tie Zhu crossed his arms over his chest.

He exchanged a glance with Xiaoya.

Then, he looked at the police with a calm expression.

"Let's not even talk about whether you can take me away."

"I just want to ask—"

His gaze swept over the thugs squatting on the ground.

"Thugs on the ground, did you see that?"

"Who called you here?"

The police officer gave Li Shuze a subtle look.

"We...we received an alarm and responded to the call as normal!"

"Oh?"

A mocking smile appeared on Tie Zhu's lips.

He slowly walked up to the nearest training team member.

Under the surprised and nervous gazes of the police and Li Guodong—

He reached out and took the assault rifle from his teammate!

Several police officers tensed up instantly!

In a flurry of activity, he pulled his sidearm from the holster!

"Don't move!"

"Put down your gun!"

but--

They were too slow.

Xiaoya had been waiting for this moment!

Her hands moved with lightning speed!

The pistol appeared in his palm in an instant!

Lift up!

"Bang--!!!"

A gunshot rang out!

The sound made everyone's eardrums ring!

A piece of debris fell from the ceiling!

"Don't move—!!!"

More than ten training team members simultaneously picked up assault rifles!

Gun barrels were all pointed at the police officers!

"Put down your gun!"

"Put down your gun!"

In the blink of an eye.

The situation has reversed.

Several police officers, holding their service pistols, dared not move.

Because a dozen or so dark gun barrels were pointed at their heads.

Whoever touches it dies.

Xiaoya walked over slowly.

The pistol was pressed directly against the forehead of the leading policeman.

The cold muzzle of the gun pressed against my skin.

The policeman broke out in a cold sweat instantly.

It dripped down her cheeks.

Xiaoya looked at him with amusement.

"You know what?"

Her voice was so soft, like she was just chatting.

"When you pulled out your guns, you already posed a threat to us."

"Although we cannot kill you on the spot—"

"But we have more than enough to control you in time."

The policeman's lips were trembling.

"We...we were just carrying out normal law enforcement..."

Xiaoya smiled.

Her smile was radiant, yet it sent chills down your spine.

"Routine law enforcement?"

"Don't assume we don't have the authority to enforce the law."

"Our licensing rights are beyond your imagination."

Her smile vanished.

His eyes sharpened.

"You still dare to say you received a police report?"

"Do you think we're stupid idiots?!"

"Are you blind, or do you simply not understand law enforcement?!"

She raised her hand and pointed around.

"Can't you see there are over 100 thugs here?!"

"Can't you see the ground is covered in machetes?!"

"Can't you see this place is full of fully armed soldiers?!"

"They even said they were going to take away important military personnel?"

She pointed to the iron pillar.

"Do you even know who he is?!"

"When you pulled out your guns, he had a hundred reasons, a hundred ways—"

"I'll seriously injure you all!"

"And it's all compliant and legal!"

The policeman's face was ashen.

Xiaoya continued:

"Once they came in, they couldn't figure out the situation."

"Without distinguishing right from wrong."

"No investigation into the details of the incident."

"Is this how you enforce the law?!"

"so--"

She smiled slightly.

"You can't leave now."

"I probably can't wear the clothes I'm wearing anymore."

"No one can save you."

She turned around and looked at the training team members.

"They took their guns."

"Get them under control."

"yes--!!!"

The team members responded in unison!

Swift action!

Several police officers had their service weapons removed!

The person was pinned against the wall!

I can't move an inch!

Xiaoya didn't even look at them again.

She turned and walked towards Li Guodong.
