Chapter 392: Chapter 388: Black Wind Tiger Goes Straight, The Second Daughter Actually...

Detention room.

The situation was extremely critical.

Zhang Wei thought that having learned a few moves from Zhang Xinwu, he might stand a chance against Black Wind Tiger.

But he was being overly optimistic.

How long had he been learning martial arts?

The other guy was one of the Four Heavenly Kings of Fierce Tiger Hall, a trusted warlord under Lord Tiger.

That skill and the ferocity within him were honed in life-and-death battles.

Although Zhang Wei was accustomed to life and death situations and had seen his share of vicious bandits, it was always in the courtroom or detention room.

Now, to go one-on-one with Black Wind Tiger was utterly impossible.

So, within a matter of seconds, Black Wind Tiger had grabbed Zhang Wei.

"You little shit, you think you’re so tough?"

"Strutting around, strut for me now!"

"If I don’t finish you off today, then I’m not Black Wind Tiger!"

At this moment, Black Wind Tiger had let loose.

Since his cover was blown, he wasn’t planning on hiding anymore.

I’m laying it out here, I am Black Wind Tiger!

He clamped down on Zhang Wei’s neck with his arm, intending to strangle him to death.

Zhang Wei, now restrained, was truly suffering, and he even cursed the crime investigation team in his heart.

Can’t you guys be faster? Is it that hard to open a door?

Who would have thought that even the territory of the investigation department and crime investigation team was not safe?

"Black Wind Tiger, you have no chance anymore, release the hostage quickly!"

"That’s right, come clean for leniency, resist for severity!"

"Put down the hostage and surrender peacefully, and we might still give you a chance, otherwise..."

The members of the crime investigation team were warning Black Wind Tiger.

But Zhang Wei, being held hostage and hearing these words, almost cursed out loud.

Do you really want me to die?

You crime unit 1 must be settling personal scores!

You’re doing this on purpose!

In the moments a hostage is being held, shouldn’t you try to use calm words to ease the tension?

How come when it comes to you, all you say are things that provoke?

Zhang Wei felt the arm clamping around his neck growing tighter due to the team’s infuriating remarks.

It’s bad!

"Silly person, save me~"

In the most critical moment, Zhang Wei could only shout out this plea.

The only person he could think of for salvation at the last moment was Xia Qianyue.

Though it seemed spineless to yell like this, he felt it was not disgraceful if it could save his life.

Thud thud thud!

Just then, light footsteps sounded outside the detention room.

"Excuse me, did someone just call me?" an uncertain voice appeared.

Everyone looked towards the direction the voice came from.

Lin Ruonan’s heart skipped a beat.

It’s over, she’s come!

Xia Qianyue followed the sound, step by step approaching Lin Ruonan and the others.

"Team Leader Lin, what are you doing here, and why do you all look so panicked?"

"Well, we’ve encountered a little problem here..."

Xia Qianyue did not wait for Lin Ruonan to respond, but instead turned her head to look inside the detention room.

Not noticing would have been better because the sight that met her eyes instantly made her grind her teeth in frustration.

Zhang Wei was being controlled by a man who looked menacing, and in the detention room lay an unconscious Tie Ruyun.

Xia Qianyue naturally recognized Tie Ruyun, who was Zhang Wei’s superior.

Now with the boss unconscious and Zhang Wei in danger, the only person left was naturally the dangerous criminal.

Xia Qianyue would naturally show no mercy to a dangerous criminal.

"Fuck, Silly person, don’t get agitated..."

As his consciousness blurred, Zhang Wei felt the killing intent locking onto him and was scared into clarity, snapping fully awake in an instant.

A strong will to survive urged him to remain lucid.

He had seen Xia Qianyue’s hostage rescue simulations before.

This person could go crazy and "take out" both the criminal and the hostage together.

The current situation was so similar to the previous simulations that if he didn’t control himself, wouldn’t he end up like that female actress?

The very thought of Xia Qianyue’s power in a distance strike made Zhang Wei dare not gamble with his life.

This was a real life-threatening matter.

"Mister, let go quickly, or we’re all going to die!"

Zhang Wei used his fingers to exert strength, and the power that burst from his will to live could not be restrained by Black Wind Tiger.

After gaining a moment to breathe, Zhang Wei shouted again, "Bro, we’re really going to die!"

"Shut your mouth for me!"

Of course, Black Wind Tiger was not going to listen.

About to die?

Cut the crap, the only one dying today is you, you little bastard!

He mumbled to himself, and his right hand exerted force again, clamping Zhang Wei’s neck tightly and leaving no chance for escape.

Zhang Wei had no choice but to struggle and flail, but unable to breathe, his face had already begun to turn a deep red.

"Where’s the key, the spare key!" Lin Ruonan was frantic with urgency. If something happened to Zhang Wei in front of her, she would be finished too.

Moreover, Xia Qianyue was still here; if Zhang Wei had an accident, who knows if this girl would go on a rampage.

"Team Leader Lin, it’s not good, the spare key... the spare key was taken for backup today, and we have to wait until tomorrow for the new keys to be delivered..."

Seeing the team member run back in panic and gasping for breath, Lin Ruonan’s heart leapt with shock again.

No spare key!

Isn’t that...

"Hahaha, no one can save you today!"

Black Wind Tiger was very happy at that moment. Hearing that Lin Ruonan and her team didn’t have the keys, he felt assured.

"You little brat, weren’t you acting all smug just now? I’m going to torture you today, break your limbs first, and then..."

Whoosh—

Just when Black Wind Tiger was about to continue his vicious boasts, a harsh sound of metal scraping filled the air.

The sound was so jarring, it almost made one’s teeth feel sour.

Compared to the sound, everyone present was staring at someone dumbfounded.

Their eyes were wide open, and they had even forgotten to blink.

Whether it was the serious crime unit staff on this side of the iron bars or Black Wind Tiger and Zhang Wei on the other side, all movements had ceased in unison.

Because the iron bars had been twisted, deformed, and ultimately torn apart by sheer force.

Xia Qianyue had ripped apart the two iron bars in front of her with her bare hands and then stepped into the detention room.

It was as if what she had torn open was not iron bars but ordinary plastic pipes.

No, a regular girl probably couldn’t even tear open a plastic pipe.

Black Wind Tiger gaped, watching this scene, watching the girl who had stepped forward.

"Let him go!"

Xia Qianyue’s eyes turned frosty, and a vicious gleam flashed through them.

Black Wind Tiger could feel that if he didn’t do as she said, his life wouldn’t be spared.

To think, even if Black Wind Tiger were to die, he would not submit to her threat, he...

Thump!

"Heroine, spare my life, I’m kneeling before you!"

"Heroine, I was also forced against my will; it was a moment of folly that led me to make such an impulsive act. Please, show mercy and forgive my earlier behavior, spare me!"

There’s a saying, a great man can bow and stretch as need be.

So what about kneeling?

To save one’s life, there’s no shame in it!

After releasing the hostage, Black Wind Tiger knelt down directly; he didn’t feel like it was enough, so he kowtowed several times to Xia Qianyue.

Thud thud thud!

He was sincerely begging for mercy, all that was missing was calling her his ancestor.

In his eyes, this person was beyond human, truly his ancestor!

Bowing to an ancestor, there’s no shame in it!

While Black Wind Tiger was kneeling and begging for mercy, Xia Qianyue finally helped Zhang Wei up.

"Are you all right, Zhang Wei?"

"I’m fine, no worries!"

After catching his breath for a few moments, Zhang Wei finally recovered.

As for Black Wind Tiger, he had already admitted his guilt; what awaited him next was inevitably a long stretch of prison time.

Therefore, Zhang Wei was no longer concerned.

"Glad you’re okay!"

Xia Qianyue said and then glanced at Black Wind Tiger.

Even though Zhang Wei was safe now, she still had to issue a necessary warning.

Otherwise, what about next time?

If Zhang Wei fell into his hands again, wouldn’t that be...

"You should feel lucky; if he had been hurt today, your end would have been like this wall!"

"What, what’s with the wall?" a bewildered and terrified Black Wind Tiger asked.

Then he watched as Xia Qianyue walked to the wall and threw a punch.

Boom!

The entire wall, which was a solid 20cm thick, was smashed to pieces by a single punch.

The wall shattered, a large hole blasted open, air waves surged, and dust filled the detention room.

Black Wind Tiger’s mouth hung open in disbelief as he witnessed the sight, completely stunned.

Is this even human?

Not to mention the iron bars she had twisted with her bare hands, now a concrete wall with reinforced steel couldn’t withstand her punch.

If such a fist landed on him, wouldn’t that be...

He couldn’t bear to imagine any longer, but he knew he had indeed been lucky to get away with his life.

"Heroine, I realize my mistake!"

Black Wind Tiger knelt again, his forehead almost touching the ground this time.

He swore that from today on, he would live a good life.

Never to engage in wrongdoing again; otherwise, if he really encountered someone fearsome, his life would be in grave danger.

He still had a long life ahead of him; he was only in his forties and didn’t want to reach the end so soon.

Xia Qianyue had no idea that her intimidation had directly changed the values of a gang member.

At that moment, she was supporting Zhang Wei, walking back to the office upstairs step by step.

Just after the two left, a man in a suit hurried into the detention room.

"Where is my client, where is my client?"

"I clearly heard noises just now, you didn’t use any extralegal punishment on my client, did you?"

"I tell you, my client is a law-abiding good citizen, he just speaks a bit loudly. He has never engaged in any illegal activities!"

The man in the suit strode up to Lin Ruonan and others, with an air of arrogance, his nostrils flaring.

Then he turned his head and saw Black Wind Tiger still kneeling on the ground.

"Mr. Black, what happened to you, why are you kneeling on the ground?"

As he spoke, he pointed aggressively at Team Leader Lin: "Team Leader Lin, I need an explanation from you as to why my client is kneeling on the ground, and if you don’t give me and my client a satisfactory answer, watch out, I could sue your investigation department into bankruptcy!"

"You’re too late!"

But faced with the lawyer’s aggressive challenge, Lin Ruonan simply raised an eyebrow, showing an air of indifference.

"You..."

Seeing that his threats had no effect on the people in front of him, the man in the suit turned to Black Wind Tiger again.

"Mr. Black, did they mistreat you, did they coerce a confession out of you under harsh interrogation? You can tell me, I will stand up for you!"

"No need, I’ve already confessed!"

Facing the lawyer, his hoped-for savior, Black Wind Tiger’s expression was unusually calm.

"Huh?"

The man in the suit was taken aback.

Sorry, what did you just say? I didn’t quite catch it.

"I said, I’ve confessed!"

Black Wind Tiger seemed incredibly patient, calmly stating: "If it weren’t for what happened here today, I wouldn’t have realized how ignorant I was."

"There are always people better than you, heavens above the sky, I’ve come to understand!"

At that moment, it was as if a light of righteousness shone on Black Wind Tiger’s face.

Right then, he chose to reform!

"Ah, this..."

The man in the suit, seeing this, was at a loss for words for a moment.

But he knew something more important: someone above had paid money to have him take this man out.

Even if he couldn’t take him out, he had to try his best to keep him quiet, keep him from speaking too much.

So, what he could do now was...

"Team Leader Lin, I suspect that you’ve subjected my client to psychological torture, to the point where he seems to be experiencing a mental breakdown, and I demand that you take him for a psychological evaluation immediately!"

"And the surveillance footage here, from the moment my client entered the detention room until now, all footage must be copied for me. I need to see if he was threatened!"

"If I discover any slight misconduct on your part, you’d better be careful, you might receive a subpoena from the court the moment you step outside!"

After the threats, the man in the suit called over other personnel from the investigation department to temporarily take Black Wind Tiger away under the guise of medical treatment.

But none of that mattered anymore because the major crimes unit had already gotten what they needed.

Lin Ruonan and the others were about to leave the detention room.

But she still felt something was strange in her heart.

Had she overlooked something?

Or had she forgotten someone?

...

Meanwhile.

Zhang Wei and Xia Qianyue finally returned safely to the major crime unit’s office.

Concerning Zhang Wei’s experience, Wu Yong and others were quite frightened.

If something had happened to Zhang Wei, wouldn’t Xia Qianyue go berserk?

After consoling Zhang Wei, Wu Yong suddenly received a phone call.

"We’ve got a mission, everyone in Unit 7, mobilize!"

"Remember, as per the orders from above, we are to cooperate with the special department and stay on standby throughout, executing whatever tasks they command!"

"Let’s get moving!"

Hearing Wu Yong’s orders, Ah Ni, Old Xing, and the others all shook their heads in displeasure.

"I hate these kinds of missions where we can’t say anything, can’t ask anything, and once the mission ends, it has nothing to do with us, all the credit goes to the higher-ups, we’re just the grunt workers!"

Old Xing complained and gave Zhang Wei a smile.

"Simple-minded, go ahead with your tasks, I also have an appointment, so I’ll be going back first."

Although it was still early, with Xia Qianyue’s actions underway, Zhang Wei also had to take his leave.

After they split up, they each started their own tasks.

...

p.m.

In an old district of Dongfang Capital.

At the entrance of a small alley along a street.

Zhang Wei looked at the address sent via WeChat with a strange expression, completely baffled.

"Is this the place the second young lady mentioned?"

"This looks exactly like one of those dodgy transaction spots, doesn’t it?"

He looked around and saw the entire street bathed in pink light; there were also several small hair salons with their doors open, with several scantily clad women standing at the doorways.

The thought of Zhao Xiaoxiao arranging to meet him here made Zhang Wei’s head spin.

Second young lady, oh second young lady, I never expected you to be...

It hurts!

It’s so painful!

Was it a problem with his upbringing, or had the ethos of the youth today become this libertine?

Wait a minute...

What does Zhao Xiaoxiao’s education have to do with me, Zhang Someone? Isn’t it all Uncle Zhao’s fault?

He’s her biological father, at most I’m a "stepfather," right?

Moreover, we have to trace the roots of this issue.

Why did the second girl want to get into this line of work, what was the reason, was it for money?

No, that can’t be it, the Zhao Family is one of the Five Great Families; they can’t possibly be short of money.

Is it the thrill she’s seeking?

That’s a possibility.

The second girl has grown up, and when young people rebel, anything is possible.

Those things that were strictly forbidden when she was a child, once grown up, she wanted to try, and as a result, she took the wrong path...

Zhang Wei felt even more pain in his heart.

Such a good second girl, how could she just...

"Hey hey hey, I’ve been here so long, and you’ve shown no reaction at all, and what’s with your face constantly changing, what are you thinking about?"

Suddenly, a crisp and pleasant, albeit slightly discontented voice interrupted his thoughts.

The protagonist has arrived.

Today, Zhao Xiaoxiao, dressed in a black T-shirt, black leather shorts, with black lipstick and eye shadow, was the epitome of rebel chic.

Her outfit seemed to proclaim: Sister here is a rebellious girl!

Seeing Zhao Xiaoxiao dressed like this, combined with the number of "practitioners" around, Zhang Wei’s heart sank.

"Second girl, you..."

"Don’t talk, come with me!"

Zhao Xiaoxiao grabbed Zhang Wei’s hand and dragged him into an alley.

They passed through the dark corridor, turned a corner, and arrived at the back door of a building.

"TheGhost!"

Zhao Xiaoxiao shouted into the backdoor.

Soon after, the door opened.

Deafening heavy metal music and a stifling atmosphere hit them full on.

It turns out this was a hidden disco.

Zhang Wei, pulled along by Zhao Xiaoxiao, entered, then made their way through the crowded crowd, heading for a side door.

Another dark corridor ensued, but Zhao Xiaoxiao navigated it with ease.

A few seconds later, an iron door appeared.

Zhao Xiaoxiao expertly took out a USB drive and inserted it into a lock near the door.

Zzzt zzzt zzzt.

A buzzing electric current sounded, followed by the unlocking of the iron door.

Click clack!

A room flickering with eerie green lights appeared before Zhang Wei and Zhao Xiaoxiao.

Several people were already seated inside.

They looked up simultaneously and their gaze lingered on Zhao Xiaoxiao and Zhang Wei for a moment before one chubby guy shouted at Zhang Wei, "TheGhost?"

"Huh?"

Zhang Wei was still confused.

What’s this all about?

I’m not even dead yet, and you’re calling me a ghost?

"Zhuzhu Xia, I’m the Ghost!" Zhao Xiaoxiao immediately grew impatient and shouted back at the chubby guy.

"How do you know I’m Zhuzhu Xia?" the chubby guy was taken aback, his expression unhappy.

"Nonsense, you’re the only fat one!"

Zhao Xiaoxiao, as if she was completely at home, sat down on a sofa in the room, casually grabbed a can of soda from the table, and popped the tab.

Glug glug...

The others also widened their eyes at this sight.

"My god, TheGhost is actually a girl!"

"Can’t believe it, can’t believe it, we actually have a girl in this line!"

"Incredible, absolutely incredible!"

"Hold on, if you’re TheGhost, then who is he?"

When someone asked this question, Zhao Xiaoxiao almost spit out her soda.

"Oh, him..."

She thought for a moment and suddenly remembered Zhang Wei’s nickname.

"Let me introduce you, he’s Death Lawyer!"

"Death Lawyer?"

The group looked at Zhang Wei in amazement.

"Death Lawyer, that’s a cool name!"

The one called "Zhuzhu Xia," the chubby guy, even laughed and said, "Brother, do you specialize in hacking law firm accounts? When can you take me on a big score?"

"Huh?"

Zhang Wei was still in a daze, but he vaguely caught on to something.

Could all these people, like Zhao Xiaoxiao, be hackers skilled in computer technology?

So, Zhao Xiaoxiao had him come with her just to meet a bunch of tech nerds?

With this thought, Zhang Wei actually let out a sigh of relief.

Tech nerds are great, tech nerds are good employment...
