Lin Xiuxian said, “It has been confirmed that this man died in last night’s battle…”
Pei Jinye nodded in understanding and still glanced at this scarred strongman named Sun Daniu.
Ability: Instrument*Blood Sword Furnace.
The fourth page revealed a photograph of a woman.
“She’s Lin Xiongqi’s young wife, named Xu Xue. She graduated two years ago, and I don’t know how she became involved with Lin Xiongqi… She’s a Fifth Rank, with a Psychic Class ability and knows a bit of hacking.”
Pei Jinye looked at the information and asked, “Lin Xiongqi married five wives in total, and she is the sixth?”
“Yes, now we suspect he killed the previous wives, so this guy has a certain peculiar fetish, a real scumbag.”
“Indeed a scumbag.”
Pei Jinye closed all the documents. “Well, Dean, I’ll be off then.”
“Stay safe out there,” Lin Xiuxian mused before continuing, “This time, the Investigation Team has also drawn fifty students from the school. The school has confirmed with them that they won’t let you easily enter dangerous situations, but nonetheless, be cautious. The Sea Ghost gang is experienced and elusive, always ensure your safety.”
“Understood, Dean.”
After Pei Jinye left, Lin Xiuxian also received a notice for a meeting from the school, a phone call from the Principal’s office that he couldn’t refuse.
…
Nightfall came.
The wind blew through the alleys.
The leader of the squad Pei Jinye followed was surnamed Huang.
A man in his forties, he was decisive and efficient in his speech and actions.
“Everyone, spread out and conduct a regional search. Signal an alarm immediately if anything happens.”
With a big wave of his hand, the team split into small squads of three.
Pei Jinye was paired with an experienced old team member.
“Continue a hundred meters from here, and it’s the red-light district. Be careful when you go in to search, don’t get mugged for your weapons.”
“Understood.”
“Understood.”
…
It wasn’t Pei Jinye’s first time checking the red-light district.
But it was his first time in Dragon City, and it had to be said, it was remarkable.
…
The two men Pei Jinye followed were surnamed Li and Sun.
Brother Li had the most seniority, stern and serious.
The one named Sun was more lively, and along the way saw quite a few lost girls affectionately calling out for Brother Sun.
If not for Brother Li’s warning look, the investigator Sun might have been dragged into a room.
“It’s not what you think, just one sister,” the man surnamed Sun explained.
Brother Li remained silent.
Pei Jinye smiled but said nothing.
“Smack!”
“Ah–”
A commotion suddenly erupted ahead.
Brother Li’s expression changed.
He quickly pushed through the crowd and moved forward.
Sun, the investigator, got grabbed by some scantily clad women who wouldn’t let go, his neck and face quickly adorned with red lipstick marks, looking slightly embarrassed as he caught up with Pei Jinye and Brother Li.
“What’s going on?”
Brother Li suddenly signaled him to be quiet and whispered, “There’s a smell of blood.”
He gestured for Pei Jinye and himself to be ready with their weapons.
Then suddenly there was a loud “clang” from behind.
Sun immediately saw someone running away and his expression changed, he shouted, “Don’t run!”
Brother Li, however, was shocked and furious that Sun had made a noise, and the sound of breaking glass came from inside the room, “Damn it!”
No amount of talking would be of use now.
He quickly said, “You two chase after him in the hallway.”
After saying that, he broke through a door and pressed his transmitter, “Coordinates at Pear Blossom Building C, we have a situation. I repeat, coordinates Pear Blossom Building C, we need backup!”
Pei Jinye followed Sun and gave chase.
There were no cameras here.
But there were a lot of surveillance cameras once you turned the corner outside the door, and he needed to be vigilant and ensure nothing was exposed.
He could see the person running away clearly from dozens of meters away; indeed, it was a member of the Sea Ghosts, but just a foot soldier.
“There’s a fork up ahead, you keep chasing, I’ll block them from the side!” said Sun as he quickly glanced at Pei Jinye and then hurriedly chased after the fugitive through a side path.
Pei Jinye quickly caught up with the man; it was a dead end.
The man turned his head to look at Pei Jinye, “Brother, do you want money? Let me live.”
Pei Jinye eyed him, gripping his gun, and steadily approached, loudly warning, “Don’t move, raise your hands. I can assure you that if you talk to me now, you won’t get a severe sentence, but if you resist, things will escalate.”
The man ignored Pei Jinye and pulled out rolls of banknotes from his waist pack, “Just let me go, and all this money is yours.”
Pei Jinye suddenly frowned.
Someone was approaching.
Where the hell is Sun?
Damn it!
He telepathically scanned the area.
There were cameras nearby, but they could only capture the corner, meaning that the spot where the man stood was a blind spot.
“We can talk.”
Pei Jinye quietly pressed his transmitter.
The man suddenly lunged forward, the knife in his hand slashing down.
Pei Jinye decisively fired his gun.
“Bang!” “Bang!” “Bang!”
Bullets flew wildly.
The man startled at first, but when he rushed forward and realized not a single bullet had hit him, a sigh of relief escaped his chest.

This guy…
“So you’re from the Investigation Team, but your shooting is pathetic!”
Pei Jinye, with his back to the outside camera, kept his gaze calm.
If it weren’t for the play he had to put on for certain people, you’d be ash by now.
Just as the man charged towards Pei Jinye, his complexion suddenly changed, he felt a tightening in his lower body, and a sharp pain shot up from his tailbone.
