huo Hong, leading to a distant relationship between mother and son, which was her lifelong regret. Seeing Shu Xiaonian now was like seeing Zhuo Yu'an as a child, time traveling back to the past.Seein...She had always felt that her life had experienced too much hardship and difficulty, believing that the suffering one could see in a lifetime was no more than this. Her father jumped to his death before her eyes, her mother went mad and died hastily, she divorced and raised two children alone. She always felt that she had already seen through the essence of human suffering, but today, compared to Ding Zhi and Yi Muyang, she realized that the suffering she had experienced was just a common occurrence in a peaceful world. In the face of their sacrifices, it was so insignificant and not worth mentioning.

"How could Dingzhi be a police officer"

"How could Yi Muyang go adventuring with him"

If saying Ding Zhi was a policeman had already shocked her, Yi Muyang following him to Yunnan surprised her even more.

Yi Muyang is cheerful and open-minded, with a love for adventure deep in his bones. However, there's a world of difference between challenging limits and venturing into the lair of a tiger.

"Mr. Yi is a man of loyalty and righteousness, with passion and a sense of responsibility. Perhaps his path wasn't chosen by chance." Zuo Yu'an had only met Yi Mu Yang a few times, but he knew people well.

"Indeed," was not accidental. Ever since his good friend, Song Song, died unexpectedly in the Sanjiangyuan region, it seemed like today's situation had been inevitable.

He and Dingzhi should have known they were in danger when they returned from Yunnan with serious injuries, so he kept his wounds a secret from her and didn't tell her the truth.

But she had never thought about that at the time, because that world was too far away from her.

"Where are we going now" she turned to ask Zhuo Yu'an, who was driving. He had been very silent all day and his expression was serious.

"Lu Kuò got in touch with the police officer in charge of this case through his connections, but he is currently out of town. So we are going to the police station now to have a video call with him to discuss the details."

"Okay."

The police allowed Lu Kuo and them to communicate about the specifics because, first, Ding Zhi's identity no longer needed protection. Second, Ding Zhi's developed subordinate, Yi Mu Yang, was now missing and it was necessary to know if he was alive or dead. To do so, they needed more information about him, as the materials Ding Zhi submitted to the police about Yi Mu Yang were too limited. Finally, Lu Kuo and their identities had been investigated by the police, which is why they were allowed to learn about the situation.

> Approach this with caution at all times.

Lu Kuo arrived at the police station ahead of them and made some connections. When they got there, he directly led them into a conference room on the third floor. The conference room was dim, with heavy curtains drawn, and only the light from the projector illuminated the space.

Sitting inside was a police officer who appeared to be in his fifties. His face was grim. When he saw them enter, he stood up, shook their hands, and then sat back down, saying very seriously,

“Today's video conference content in this meeting room, I hope the three of you can keep it confidential.”

This officer did not introduce his position or the case he was in charge of, but it is likely that he is a narcotics officer.

He quickly connected with the police officer in charge of contacting Dingzhi. When a screen displayed an image of a handsome police officer in uniform, with stern features and a serious expression, Lu Kuò, Zhuo Yǔan, and Shū Tīnglán in the conference room were all taken aback.

The police officer in charge of contacting Dingzhi turned out to be Cheng Chen's husband, Shao Hui!

Shao Hui was obviously very surprised. The people on the video were Zhu Yu An and Shu Ting Lan, while Lu Kuò, though he hadn't met him before, he recognized him.

Lu Kuo secretly cursed in his heart, "Damn it, is this world too small" Recalling that night, he stood alone in the alleyway outside Cheng Chen's house. The image of him and Cheng Chen kissing in the car flashed through his mind, making him feel a little disgusted. He wanted to get up and leave.

But Zhu Yuyan was stopped by a stern look from Zhuo Yu'an. Now wasn't the time to be acting out of character.

Shao Hui quickly got into work mode, giving them a rundown of the situation. He explained that he was only in charge of contacting Ding Zhi for 5 years, and the previous liaison police officer had retired.

Dingzhi was responsible for operating in the Yunnan region and secretly sending information he obtained about drug traffickers to Shao Hui, who would then coordinate and arrange the arrests from his side.

Ding had been in Yunnan for almost 16 years. For the previous 10 years, he had been working with a Southeast Asian drug lord who was very powerful and had a wide reach. Back then, Gang An was just a small-time drug dealer.

Ding was thriving under that Southeast Asian drug lord, deeply trusted. And because of this, after years of undercover work, the police used Ding's intelligence to take down the Southeast Asian drug lord's base, which once caused a national sensation.

Dingzhi originally thought that after completing the task, he could transfer smoothly. So he went back to the Sanjiangyuan area and dealt with drug dealers. It was certainly not as comfortable as dealing with animals. It was also in that year that he learned about Yimu Yang through his cousin.

But he failed to make the transition and kept in touch with his old police contact, urging him to return to Yunnan immediately to resume his undercover work.

"Your identity hasn't been exposed yet, you can continue to lurk there. It takes a nation a lot of effort to cultivate a person, and currently, there's no one more suitable than you."

He was unwilling to go: "Aren't they all already caught"

"You think taking down one Southeast Asian drug lord is the end of it Another one will just pop up immediately."

"What can I do now"

"Just do nothing, keep on idling, and wait for the notification. Oh, by the way, someone from above will assign you a new contact person named Shao Hui."

And Gank is someone who has suddenly risen to prominence in recent years, even more so than the Southeast Asian groups of the past. Gank isn't just a brute; he's actually quite cultured and intelligent. He's strategic and calculated in his actions.

Ding Zhi wanted to get into the high-level team of Gan An, but he couldn't find a way. Because he was once the close subordinate of that Southeast Asian person, and the Southeast Asian person was dealt with all at once, while he was unharmed.

Although his identity wasn't revealed, people who lived on the edge sometimes held superstitious beliefs. They found him unlucky, so not only would someone like An be unwilling to associate with him, but even the members of his own team avoided him as well.

As Gan An's influence grew and drug trafficking became more rampant, he was frustrated by his inability to get close to Gan An. He therefore set his sights on Yi Mu Yang instead.

Knowing Gan An's style of doing things, he likes to present himself as a legitimate businessman and prefers dealing with other businessmen. Yi Mu Yang, whether in terms of his business background, physical fitness, or mental level, fully conforms to Gan An's admiration. Therefore, Ding Zhi set up layers upon layers of traps, leading Yi Mu Yang into this world of gunfire and bullets.

This was Shao Hui's explanation of the events to them, as well as the information he had received from Ding Zhi about Yi Muyang. A heavy silence fell over the conference room.

Shu Tinglan's eyes were red-rimmed as she thought about Ding Zhi at his last moment. Had he had even a trace of regret for bringing Yi Muyang into this dangerous world

Yi Mu Yang is so innocent.
