Reborn in 1993, Dark Sea

Police cars roared in!

Before Ali could even stand up and greet them, the police car had already rushed into the police station's courtyard. After the car stopped, all four doors opened at the same time, and Zhou Zhengguo led three policemen out of the car and headed straight for the detention room without looking back.

Ali scratched his head.

Looking around, the brothers were all obedient, no one made a fuss or left, but the whole thing had taken a long time and everyone was exhausted. Many of them lay down on the ground and fell fast asleep.

Ali also breathed a sigh of relief, squatted down and looked at Wang Bulai and Xie Dan beside him.

Wang Bulai kept his head down and didn't say a word, while Xie Dan took a small knife, drew a few squares on the mud, and played with throwing the knife.

Ali glanced at the police badge hanging on the Public Security Bureau building, wanted to spit out his saliva, but after hesitating for a long time, he swallowed back the saliva that he had finally managed to produce.

"I never thought I'd have this day, hehe!"

Ali felt a little smug. In the past, he would have to go around the police if he saw them from afar. But now, they've been blocking the police station entrance for most of the day, and not a single person has come to chase them away. He was thrilled!

Detention cell

Zhou Zhengguo took a chair and sat opposite An Xiaohai, his expression serious. The three policemen who came with him stood guard at the door of the detention room.

"Xiao Hai, you know all this, don't you?" Zhou Zhengguo's eyes were filled with complex emotions.

"What do I know?" An Xiaohai looked into Zhou Zhengguo's eyes and said, "I'm sorry, Director Zhou, I don't quite understand what you mean."

"Don't you understand what I mean? You knew all along that Chen Huizhu's family would get into trouble, didn't you?"

"What happened? Did something happen to their family? What happened?" An Xiaohai asked, a faint smile playing on his lips.

Zhou Zhengguo paused for a moment, a barely perceptible hint of disappointment flashing in his eyes: "Yes, Chen Huizhu's family has met with misfortune. They were executed while passing through the mountainous area around Guilong."

The driver was sniped, and Chen Huizhu and her family of three were trapped inside the car. They were pushed off the overpass along with the car; everyone inside perished.

"Oh, thank you for telling me this, Director Zhou."

"Thank me? You thank me!? Are you happy to hear this news?" Zhou Zhengguo's voice was clearly a little excited, and his volume increased.

"Should I be saddened to hear this news? Whether Chan Wai-chu and her family are dead or alive, whether they were executed or not, what does it have to do with me? I don't even know who they are!"

An Xiaohai was also a little excited, his voice rose considerably, and he stared at Zhou Zhengguo without backing down.

The two faced off like this for a while before Zhou Zhengguo finally closed his eyes, his face contorted in pain: "Xiao Hai, turn back as soon as possible. Don't continue like this. If you keep going, there really won't be a way back!"

"Turning back? Director Zhou, I really don't understand what you mean? Are you trying to pin the deaths of Chen Huizhu's family on me? Is that how you'll report back to your superiors?"

"You know that's not what I meant!"

"Then what exactly do you mean? I don't understand, I really don't understand! If Director Zhou wants me to do something, please say it openly and honestly, don't play games with me."

"If you need someone to take the blame, we can talk. I have plenty of underlings; I can always find a few who'd rather die than risk their lives for money."

"An Xiaohai! Get your facts straight! Think before you speak, don't spout nonsense!" Zhou Zhengguo slammed his hand on the table in anger.

"Director Zhou, I also want you to understand, you police officers are useless and can't solve cases, so why are you taking your anger out on me? I'm just a released convict, how could I have such great power to execute anyone?"

I've thought it through very clearly!

I don't know Chen Huizhu, and I didn't know she would be at the police station today. It was you who asked me to come, not me.

I haven't left this place since the conflict with her, and all my men are outside. What right do I have to execute her? What reason do I have to execute her?

If you have evidence, then arrest me. Don't give me this nonsense!

"Fine, fine, An Xiaohai, I won't argue with you, I won't argue with you. Arguing solves nothing..." Zhou Zhengguo's face turned red with anger. "Tell me now, what else will happen tonight?! Tell me right now!"

"How would I know what will happen tonight? You're the police! I told you, I'm just a released convict, how could I possibly know everything?"

"Do you dare say you have absolutely no connection with Chan Wai-chu? Do you dare say you have no grudge against her?"

"Do I have any grudge against her? How come I don't know? Please tell me, what exactly is the grudge between us?"

Oh, so after all this time, you think Chan Wai-chu was executed because she had a grudge against me.

"That's easy, just go and investigate. Find out who I have a grudge against, who has harmed me, and then you'll know what will happen tonight. Why bother asking me here?"

"You!...You!..." Zhou Zhengguo pointed at An Xiaohai, too angry to speak for a long time: "Get out! Get out of the police station right now. This isn't a market, you can't just come and go as you please."

"Oh, is that so? So if I assault a police officer, can I then be legally detained here?"

"An Xiaohai, don't do anything reckless... Ah!" Before Zhou Zhengguo could finish speaking, An Xiaohai had already punched him in the stomach, and Zhou Zhengguo bent over in pain.

The three police officers at the door finally realized what was happening and rushed in, pinning An Xiaohai to the ground.

An Xiaohai's eyes were bloodshot as he stared intently at Zhou Zhengguo. The madness in his eyes was chilling, causing Xia Jing, who had just run over to see what was happening, to retreat repeatedly. In her panic, she kicked over a trash can in the corridor, making a series of crisp sounds.

*Pfft!* Xu Congzhou spat out a mouthful of tea, his eyes wide as saucers: "What? What?! An Xiaohai beat up Zhou Zhengguo at the police station? How is that possible?!..."

No, no! ...

That old fox and the little fox, they're definitely putting on an act! ...But wait, who are they trying to fool with all that trouble?

Could it be that there's something fishy going on in this police station? ...

Damn it, is this ever going to end?! ...

No, that's not right! These two actors are such terrible at acting, they shouldn't be able to fool anyone...

So what exactly are they trying to achieve by putting on this show? ..."

Xu Congzhou felt completely unwell.

Security Department, Temporary Headquarters of Deepsea City, Conference Room

027 stood with her hands behind her back in front of a huge map of Deepsea City, motionless for a long time. 073 and Mai Xiaoyu stood not far behind her, facing the door and greeting the security personnel who came to report.

"082 is here to report for duty!"

"155 has been ordered to report for duty!"

"061 and 065 are here to report for duty!"

"Hello, please take a seat!" 073 and Mai Xiaoyu kept guiding the security personnel who came to report for duty to their seats.

"018, I have been ordered to report to you."

An old voice suddenly rang out from the doorway, and the conference room immediately became so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

018, one of the three remaining veterans of the Security Department, I really didn't expect him to come this time. Together with 027 in the conference room, two of the three legendary figures of the Security Department have come!

As 018 stepped into the conference room, all the security personnel stood up and saluted in unison!

027, who had been standing still, finally reacted. She turned around and looked at 018, her eyes filled with complex and intense emotions. A slight smile appeared on her lips, but it was quickly replaced by a solemn expression.

"Hello comrades, please have a seat," 018 said with a smile, and then found a chair in the corner and sat down.

There is no communication between 018 and 027, nor is there any need for them to communicate.

"Is everyone here?" 027 asked, scanning the room.

"Everyone except 042 has arrived. 042 is quite far away, so he'll probably need some more time," 073 explained.

"Okay, let's not wait for him, let's start!" 027 took a deep breath and walked to the map.

"Report, Senior 027, do you have any information about this operation? If so, could you show it to everyone first? That would save you time and energy," 065 asked.

"I have the information, but I don't intend to show it to you comrades. Comrades, the enemy's information is very complicated, so let's not worry about it for now. Too much information will only affect everyone's judgment."

The matter itself is actually very simple. 073 and I were caught up in the layers of fog deliberately set up by our opponent, so it wasn't until today that we finally figured out his true purpose.

Now, I will use the simplest language to explain, and then I ask everyone to work together to determine the enemy's objective.

027 gritted his teeth, lowered his head, and walked back and forth a few steps before stopping and looking up to say, "There is a madman, a madman with extremely high intelligence who is obsessed with taking revenge on the world."

More than 20 years ago, this madman stayed in a small fishing village for seven whole years, and then suddenly disappeared.

This small fishing village is located here.

027 marked the location of Apojiao Village on the map.

"Over the next 20 years, we found traces of his presence in these places one after another," 027 marked several more points on the map, finally pointing to the location of the Yulong Wanghai Villa District:

"The most important thing is this place. This place is very important. This madman, under the guise of building a villa area, has actually built a fortress halfway up the mountain."

Okay, now please tell me, what's in this area? What did you all see? Tell me, what is this madman trying to do?

After 027 finished speaking, he used the pen in his hand to connect the points that had been marked on the map, turning them into a circle.

"My God!" Mai Xiaoyu exclaimed, covering her mouth with her hand in shock: "Xiaoguanwan Nuclear Power Plant!"

"Not only that," 027's eyes were incredibly sharp: "East of the Xiaoguanwan Nuclear Power Plant, there is also the Zhongzhen Technology Petrochemical Industrial Zone, which stretches for 20 miles!"

It's December 1996. Imagine the consequences if, at this critical juncture, an accident occurred at the Xiaoguanwan Nuclear Power Plant or the Zhongzhen Technology Petrochemical Industrial Park!

027 slammed a punch onto the map: "The Xiaoguanwan Nuclear Power Plant and the petrochemical industrial zone must not have any accidents!"

Comrades, the time has come for the Party and the people to test us!
