995: Chapter 966: Hot Potato!

Free Information!

Fearlessness comes from ignorance!

Chasing the business van like a sticky plaster, once attached, it couldn’t be shaken off.

Through the rearview mirror, Du had noticed the car long ago.

“Fucking hell!

Do they think the War Statistics Institute is some soft persimmon ripe for the squeezing?” he cursed.

“Even some thuggish debt collectors dare to bully us to our faces!

Dammit!”

Du couldn’t help but coldly laugh and grumble continuously.

On the phone, Zheng asked with some surprise,

“What exactly did you guys do?

How come debt collectors are bullying you?”

“It’s all because of that big case ‘106’!

Xu Feng might provide significant clues, so we contacted him, but we ended up getting stalked by these thugs…”

They briefly spoke and then Du hung up.

They reached a traffic light that was red with a few dozen seconds until it would turn green.

Du immediately turned to Wu Jie and said,

“I’ll take you home to rest first.

Tonight I need to deal with these ignorant bastards properly.

Consider it free labor for Zheng, aiding the Security Bureau, and eliminating harm for the public!”

Wu Jie snorted and chuckled coldly, “I fucking work for the Security Bureau, how can you exclude me?”

“But your status is different!

If something happens to you, wouldn’t Elder Tan shoot me dead?

And I couldn’t explain it to Zheng either!” Du was somewhat troubled.

Wu Jie sighed.

“Alright then, if I stayed, you guys wouldn’t be able to act freely.

Worrying would just spoil the fun.”

“Don’t worry, there will be plenty of opportunities for you to have fun later!”

Du chuckled.

He then turned back to mastermind the strategy and deploy manpower.

That violent and brutal debt collection gang was clearly in for a rough night.

Who to mess with?

They had to cross paths with the War Statistics Institute, where everyone was seething with rage and looking for a vent!

Perfect, they’d walked into the crosshairs, giving them a good reason to unleash hell.

Don’t act recklessly if you don’t want to die.

Yet, often many people won’t understand this principle even at death’s door.

Just like the Volkswagen sedan that had been relentlessly pursuing them.

Following so closely, they truly were tired of living!

Of course.

If they knew who Biao had offended, whose business van they were tracking, granted to which department.

Perhaps they wouldn’t have been so reckless and audacious.

But who would kindly inform them?

Wu Jie had no interest in meddling with such trivial matters; his unique status now saw him coddled and protected like a national treasure, barely able to have any fun for fear of mishaps.

Before long,

the business van entered the yard of an inconspicuous motel.

The following Volkswagen did not immediately enter.

People in the underworld surely know: do not chase into a house, do not flee into an alley.

Meaning, when pursuing someone, avoid entering unfamiliar buildings.

Who the hell knows if there’s an ambush inside?

Or vicious dogs?

And while fleeing, it’s best not to duck into narrow alleys because if luck’s bad, entering a dead-end alley, then how would one escape?

Stopping outside the yard,

three people got out of the Volkswagen.

Two entered the yard, and one kept watch outside.

The motel, in fact, was a contact point for the War Statistics Institute.

Wu Jie was quickly escorted out the back door, headed next door to a car wash, and took a car to a hotel.

As for Du and the others…

They were naturally set for a satisfying night.

Not letting the debt collectors know, not letting the streets know Xu Feng was under someone’s protection in the dark…

Du surely wouldn’t rest until it was done.

Tonight, many were doomed to spending sleepless.

…

On the road,

Zheng called, worried about Wu Jie’s safety and once again cautioning him against taking risks.

If anything went wrong, they couldn’t bear the responsibility, curious as to why Wu Jie was trying to buy substantial dirt on powerful figures from Xu Feng.

Of course, he intended to advise Wu Jie that while the incriminating materials were potent and impactful, holding onto them was like holding a hot potato and should better be turned over to specialized anti-corruption departments rather than recklessly clashing head-on.

After all, how massive was the Kong Family case in Liuli City?

How terrible was its impact?

Trouble followed trouble.

If, at this time, more powerful officials were taken down, the timing wasn’t right, and the negative impact would be especially severe, and ultimately, Zheng wanted to advise Wu Jie not to personally strike at these powerful figures.

In the Kong Family case in Liuli City, even though Wu Jie only helped catch Shen Liang, it triggered crazy retaliation from the remnants, even leading to a public assassination attempt…

If more powerful figures were taken down, offending more people, Zheng was truly worried it would provoke even more ferocious and ruthless retaliation against Wu Jie.

Zheng’s concern and anxiety were indeed reasonable.

After all, blocking someone’s fortune is akin to killing their parents!

And the incriminating materials Wu Jie got hold of would not only stop these officials from profiteering.

They would also lose their positions and end up in jail, falling from their lofty, influential heights to being scorned as corrupt officials.

Such grudges and hatreds are certainly comparable to killing one’s parents.

Thus…

Zheng said over the phone, those powerful officials’ dirt was even more ferocious than a hot potato, which is why the Xu Family in Liuli City had treasured it for a long time without daring to use it.

They clearly also knew that these powerful figures were not to be offended.

Selling it to Wu Jie for eight million, which seemed like a bargain price, but actually?

It was passing the hot potato to someone else, sidestepping a load of trouble.

Therefore.

Zheng suggested to Wu Jie that he hand these troublesome black materials to the anti-corruption department and let them worry about it.

But how would he know…

Whether they’re big tigers or little tigers, in Jie’s eyes, they’re all damn trash.

If it weren’t for earning energy points, would Jie need to buy these black materials?

As for causing trouble or facing retaliation?

Afraid of what!

Having both the system and Phantom as guards, if he still feared this and that, then what the hell was he doing in this business!

But Zheng was also coming from a good place, so Wu Jie naturally agreed over the phone and said he would seriously consider it.

That was also the truth.

Suddenly obtaining black materials on so many big tigers, how could he not consider carefully how to use them?

They hadn’t been chatting long when they arrived at the hotel.

After checking in and washing up, he went to bed and was video chatting with Tang Xiao when Xu Feng called.

“Wow, bro, I didn’t expect you to do such a big favor for me, truly touching me immensely, so heartwarming!”

As soon as the call connected, Xu Feng’s laughter came through.

Clearly, he already knew about Biao’s tragic death tonight and the bad luck that befell the debt collection company, which is why he called so cheerfully.

Wu Jie snorted coldly, “Don’t be so damn sentimental, some people are just asking for trouble; it’s not like I’m specifically protecting you!”

Xu Feng laughed heartily, “Yes, yes, I understand, I get it all!

Those guys really aren’t anything good, Yuan Shikui’s Tianyuan He Ying Credit Co.

was once the top in the nation, and he was second to none!”

“Specializing in the loan collection business, when Yuan Shikui fell, the entire credit industry was greatly impacted, but now it’s slowly recovering, and he’s become the top dog, his power increased, and so has his arrogance, truly no small feat!”

“Ah, people are like that, acting all humble and kissing up when they have no money and power, but once there’s cash in his pocket and backup, the attitude changes dramatically!”

“If it were in the past, he wouldn’t dare send men to tail me unless he wanted his whole family dead, but now, it’s like a tiger fallen prey to dogs!

I…”

Wu Jie couldn’t listen anymore and interjected,

“Do you have a fucking problem?

It’s the middle of the night, you think I want to have a chit-chat over the phone?”

“What the hell do your debts have to do with me, and what the hell are you trying to say with all your blabbering?”

Xu Feng quickly apologized with a nervous laugh, “Don’t be mad, Jie, my bad, I’m too talkative, I’ll make it short!”

“Here’s the thing, I’m really thankful for what you did, you’ve scared a lot of creditors!”

“They thought with Liuli City Xu Family’s support gone, they could bully us with impunity, but what happened?”

“Even though it was merely borrowing your influence, you indirectly protected me, and I’m a person who values loyalty!”

“An eye for an eye, before a big job gets done, let me offer you an important piece of information for free!”

“In three hours, at 4 AM, at Haijin International Port Zone 11, a shipment will arrive!”

Wu Jie raised his eyebrows and asked in a deep voice,

“What shipment?

Whose shipment?”

Xu Feng chuckled coldly, “Bro, I can only tell you this much, just know the info is solid, if you send someone to check, you’ll definitely catch them red-handed, but please, take extra precautions, bring more firepower, and wear bulletproof vests!

Make sure you stay safe, bro!”

After a sheepish laugh, Xu Feng hung up.

Without hesitation, Wu Jie immediately informed Zheng to deploy a heavily armed tactical squad to see if they could catch the violators and seize a large batch of illegal weapons and ammunition.

The information provided by Xu Feng should be accurate as they were currently in a ‘honeymoon period’ of cooperation.

Revealing an important tip was nothing for him, but it would demonstrate loyalty while also proving his family had substantial capabilities.

After putting down the phone, Wu Jie closed his eyes to rest.

He communicated remotely with the Phantom tailing Xu Feng.

As an Aggregated State Combat Robot built by advanced civilizations, with the current technological strength of Earth’s humans, it was impossible to detect it.

So…

At this very moment, the Phantom was standing not far from Xu Feng, watching him closely, and he was utterly unaware.

After finishing the call with Wu Jie, he lay on the bed, wearing headphones, continue messing with his phone.

He wasn’t playing games but sending messages.

A clever rabbit has three burrows!

And it’s the same for the Liuli City Xu Family.

Even now, burdened with huge debts and facing tough days.

The people from his Liuli City Xu Family weren’t living together in one rented house but scattered, using a messaging group to keep in contact, share what they have, and avoid being wiped out all at once.

Xu Feng naturally didn’t have the capability to secure various confidential intel; he was just more acquainted with Wu Jie, thus became the family representative negotiating business with him.

Those who were really collecting and sorting all sorts of information were Xu Kuishan and others.

Xu Feng, such a spoiled young master, was always idle and lazy previously, where did he have any real skills?

After chatting on the messenger, he started playing games and then, while playing, he fell asleep.

He was really a pain in the neck!

His team members were truly unlucky.

However, Wu Jie didn’t call the Phantom back.

The hotel was extremely safe anyway, but it was more crucial to look after Xu Feng, who was living alone in a rental.

In case the Liuli City Xu Family could get intel on nuclear warheads, but Xu Feng got killed, that line would almost be cut off, especially since the relationship with Wu Jie and Xu Kuishan wasn’t that strong.

The night was as dark as ink.

Wu Jie lay in bed but didn’t fall asleep immediately.

How should he use the big bosses’ black material appropriately?

And who exactly dismantled some country’s intercontinental missile and stole their warhead?

As he pondered, sleepiness swept over him, and soon he drifted off.

In the morning.

Wu Jie woke up and immediately checked his phone.

Sure enough, Zheng had sent a message on the secure app.

Based on the intel from Xu Feng, Zheng had acted at four in the morning with spectacular results.

This group was no ordinary force; they had seized many advanced and powerful standard equipments.

Although many weapons were seized, people were astounded—what exactly were these people planning?

…
