Chapter 184: Going Home

Early the next morning, after 8 AM.

The director of Dragon City's Police Bureau arrived at work on time, but before he could even drink his morning tea after entering his office, his office secretary walked in with a case file: "Leader, please look at this."

The director took the case file and after sitting in his office chair reading for a while, threw the materials on the desk with a very ugly expression and cursed: "We just called for strict crackdowns, and they dare to kill people openly in the busy streets - this is too fucking arrogant!"

The case file was submitted by the Zha'nan District Police Department last night, about Wei Xiangzuo openly appearing and stabbing Cheng Gang to death and wounding eight others in the restaurant.

Just a few days ago, the Police Bureau had disciplined the dock gang, and before they could even finish handling the aftermath, Zha'nan had another murder case, and a public assault at that.

The nature of this was too vicious - it was equivalent to openly defying the judicial system, which was why the Police Bureau director was so angry.

"Tell the Zha'nan District Police Department head to come to the bureau for a meeting immediately - I want to ask Fat Li if he can still do his job, if not get out immediately!" the director stood up cursing. "Have the bureau's technical investigation make materials, lock down Wei Xiangzuo for me - must catch him within a week."

"Yes!" The office secretary responded and, seeing the director's extremely bad mood, immediately left knowingly.

The director loosened his collar and walked to the window, preparing to smoke a cigarette to calm his irritated mood.

"Ring ring!"

Just then a phone rang. The director took out his phone, looked at the caller ID, and immediately put on a smile as he pressed answer: "Hello, Secretary-General Liu."

"I just went on a business trip to Zone One, probably returning to Dragon City tomorrow - do you have time to talk?" Secretary Liu asked with a smile.

"Of course...!" The director began exchanging pleasantries with him on the phone.

......

At the Zha'nan dock gang hall.

Xu Hu sat alone in the room, his mood extremely depressed. He never imagined Wei Xiangzuo would return to Dragon City at this time and forcefully kill Cheng Gang.

Xu Hu again personally felt that Wei Xiangzuo was a madman, because this wasn't something a normal person could do. Wei Xiangzuo not only despised him but even despised the law, despised the various unknown consequences this act might bring.

Sitting on the sofa, Xu Hu took a deep drag on his cigarette and called hoarsely: "Yu Yang!"

At these words, a young man walked in and bent down asking: "What is it, Big Brother?"

"Go hold a meeting, then take two hundred thousand from the public account and send it to Cheng Gang's family," Xu Hu instructed with a dark face. "Specifically assign two people to go to the Police Department to handle Cheng Gang's death matter - anyway, give him a decent send-off."

"Good, I understand," the young man nodded.

"Go then."

Xu Hu waved his hand. Though he had no emotional attachment to Cheng Gang, he had to maintain face. Cheng Gang had after all turned to follow him, so he naturally had to show a big brother's proper bearing and righteousness.

Buying over Cheng Gang had cost Xu Hu nearly a million in total, but he had gained almost no tangible benefits, which made his mental state somewhat explosive.

Xu Hu smoked while calling Gu Baishun again, instructing softly: "Keep finding Old You's wife, pressure her to sign quickly."

"I called, but after Cheng Gang died, they started making excuses..."

"Damn it!" Xu Hu cursed looking down: "I'll come find you, let's talk in person."

"Good."

After they ended the call, Xu Hu stood up and walked out.

A few minutes later, as Xu Hu was walking toward the hall exterior, he suddenly turned to ask a lackey: "Are there any good quality bulletproof vests left? Get me one."

......

Five days, Xu Hu spent a full five days in torment.

After Wei Xiangzuo killed Cheng Gang, he disappeared. Everyone knew he definitely hadn't left Dragon City, but no one knew exactly where he was. Just one person - if he really hid in some cellar and stored his phone in different locations, it would be too difficult to catch him.

Moreover, Cheng Gang's death caused the seemingly calmed Zha'nan dock gang to surge with undercurrents again. Those of Wei Xiangzuo's brothers who had been unwilling to submit to Xu Hu must now also be stirring in their hearts.

On the surface, Xu Hu controlled everything, but actually he was now in a dilemma. If he chose to attack, he didn't know who to deal with - the Yu family people were all in Zone One and Wei Xiangzuo couldn't be found, so he had no way to thoroughly resolve the problem in one go. If he chose to defend, Xu Hu didn't know which point to defend...

This feeling was about the same as eating shit. After thinking for a long time, Xu Hu prepared to bring thick gifts to see the Dock Workers General Association's vice chairman, have him help put in a word with the general chairman, to first get those above to recognize his leadership position.

At this critical moment, Su Tianyu, who had stayed in Xinaluo for a week, finally finished laying all the groundwork.

That morning, after 9 AM.

After finishing his call with Yao Doudou, Su Tianyu immediately contacted Yu Mingyuan: "About ready, let's go home."

"Did Wei Xiangzuo call you?" Yu Mingyuan asked.

"He called me yesterday, but I've been waiting for news," Su Tianyu looked down at his watch. "About ready now, let's go home."

"Good," Yu Mingyuan nodded.

"Openly, you, me, and Uncle Yu - we three go back first, others can just drive back," Su Tianyu instructed very specifically. "Enter normally through customs, no need to hide."

"My father's going back too?" Yu Mingyuan was somewhat surprised.

"Without Uncle Yu returning, we can't stimulate Xu Hu," Su Tianyu replied with furrowed brows.

Yu Mingyuan considered for a while: "Alright then, I'll go tell the old man."

"Good, that's it."

After ending their call, Su Tianyu called Little Feng and instructed him softly: "We can go back now, but remember - don't mess around until your Brother Wei contacts you, and don't contact people in the port first."

"Understood," Little Feng nodded.

"Listen carefully - all the chips of our two families are riding on this return. If things get messed up, your Big Brother will definitely die," Su Tianyu said with a very grave expression. "The Police Bureau won't let you people go, so you absolutely must not act on your own initiative, understand?"

Little Feng paused before nodding with a serious expression: "I understand!"

"Good, you go first then," Su Tianyu waved to them after his instructions.

......

That afternoon after 1 PM.

Yu Jinrong, who had avoided disaster in Zone One for nearly a month, went to the airport with his son Yu Mingyuan.

At the same time.

In the Zhou family villa, Zhou Yaoxiang said to a handsome young man: "No need to trouble Little Gang this time, you go back."

"Yes, Mr. Zhou," the young man nodded. He was the Zhou family North Hall's number one fighter, a red pole named Cui Bin.
