"Is that true? That would be great, I will ask Director Luo right now to mobilize the police force and search the Royal Number One Club!"

Upon hearing this, Han Lian was overjoyed, forgetting even her coffee as she prepared to stand up.

"Hey, don't rush, this is just my guess. If we go now, we'll only alert the enemy!" Seeing her urgency, Ling Zhenfei was somewhat speechless and had to press her back into her seat.

Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly remembered something and frowned, asking Han Lian, "Wait, Han Lian, who did you just say you were going to ask? Director Luo? Isn't Director Guo the Chief of the Municipal Public Security Bureau? Who is this Director Luo?"

"Oh, it's like this."

Seeing the confusion on Ling Zhenfei's face, Han Lian explained with a smile, "Because the last case involving the underground base was discovered, Director Guo went to Beijing to report the situation and attend an important meeting at the Ministry of Public Security. It will take a week for him to return, and currently, all bureau affairs are handled by Deputy Director Luo Dingbei."

"Deputy Director, Luo Dingbei..."

Ling Zhenfei muttered Luo Dingbei's name silently. Although he had never met this Deputy Director Luo, he knew that he was not an easy person to deal with.

"Zhenfei, it isn't safe to leave Xie Lina at Zhuo Yue's place either. Let her stay at my place for now!" As Ling Zhenfei was silent, Han Lian suddenly suggested.

"Han Lian, this… I'm afraid that won't work!"

Upon hearing this, Ling Zhenfei smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Xie Lina doesn't know what has traumatized her, but now she doesn't even trust the police. I've tried to persuade her to come to the Public Security Bureau, but she absolutely refuses. I think it's best to let her stay at Zhuo Maid's place for now!"

"But, someone from the Chen family just made trouble at Zhuo Yue's house, won't they possibly go there again?"

Driven by her police instincts, Han Lian was still very worried about Xie Lina's situation, and said with a furrowed brow, "No, that's too dangerous. Even if she doesn't want to come to the Public Security Bureau, I need to send some officers to protect her safety."

Dispatching people to protect Xie Lina, Ling Zhenfei had no objections to this. However, seeing Han Lian's eager manner, he felt somewhat uneasy.

He then said to Han Lian, "You can send people, but make sure they are undercover, guarding outside the residential area.

Xie Lina might hold evidence of the Chen family's criminal activities. We can't put too much pressure on her right now. Moreover, we cannot afford to put too much pressure on the Chen family either. If they become desperate and attack Xie Lina recklessly, the consequences would be unthinkable."

"Yes, you're right!"

Upon hearing Ling Zhenfei's suggestions, Han Lian nodded repeatedly in agreement and immediately took out her phone to arrange for several plainclothes officers to rush to the area near Zhuo Yue's home without delay.

Seeing that Han Lian had delegated tasks to her officers, Ling Zhenfei finally felt truly relieved about the safety of Zhuo Yue and Xie Lina.

He gave Han Lian a look, then suddenly remembered something and couldn't help but ask, "Has Du Kongting shown any recent unusual activities?"

Ling Zhenfei knew that as a young and outstanding chief of the criminal police, Han Lian currently had many major cases to handle.

The human trafficking case led by Hei Biao and Wang Changming, although the main criminal group, the Chen family, and their behind-the-scenes leader had not yet been captured, still resulted in the rescue of many women, which could be considered a close to that chapter.

As for the drug-related case, although it seemed to be closed, there were many puzzling loose ends left!

Tan Shaojie and his group ventured into Huaxia, originally to rescue Kun Ze Haosan, yet why did they kill Kun Ze Haosan just as they were about to leave the country?

Tan Shaojie had many secrets, and he had been in prison for a long time, yet he stubbornly refused to reveal any clues the police wanted. What exactly was he relying on?

Moreover, Han Lian had already confirmed that Du Kongting was an important mole for the drug cartel in Binyang, yet she had deliberately refrained from acting against him, intending to cast a long line to catch a big fish. Ling Zhenfei was certain she would not give up monitoring Du Kongting.

Ling Zhenfei had to find out about Du Kongting's recent activities, after all, this old fellow harbored a deep grudge against him and wanted to take revenge on him through Yang Zixuan.

Although he had already arranged for Jiang Hao to secretly protect Yang Zixuan, it was still essential to obtain some important information from the police.

"No discoveries at all! Mr. Du, this old fox, is indeed very cunning, and it seems he has sensed the police's plans."

Upon hearing Ling Zhenfei's question, Han Lian shook her head helplessly and said, "I've had people following him for several days now, and aside from going to Lin's for work as usual, he seems to show no unusual behavior."

Regarding Han Lian's response, Ling Zhenfei seemed to have anticipated it and sighed helplessly upon hearing it.

No wonder Han Lian's people couldn't find anything. Du Kongting, this old fellow, was full of tricks. He managed to hide in Lin Tiannan's vicinity without showing any trace. Such cunning, how could an ordinary detective cope with it?

The two sat in a café and chatted for a while when suddenly, Han Lian's phone rang. It was from the undercover she had just placed outside Zhuo Yue's neighborhood.

Ling Zhenfei was about to lean in to hear what they were saying when his own phone suddenly began to ring urgently.

He took out his phone and saw that it was displaying Zhuo Yue's number, which made his heart tremble wildly. He secretly thought, "Could it be, I misjudged, and that mysterious person behind the scenes, so impatient, chooses tonight to make a move on Xie Lina?"

Although Ling Zhenfei felt puzzled, he still dared not believe in that possibility and immediately answered the call.

"Hello, Ling Zhenfei, you better come over quickly, something has happened!" As soon as the call connected, Zhuo Yue's anxious voice came over.

"Let's go, something's happened over there; let's go check it out together!"

After hanging up the phone, Han Lian stood up and said this to him, then walked straight out of the café.

It seemed that tonight was destined to be a sleepless one.

Ling Zhenfei and Han Lian did not delay a moment and hurried to the neighborhood where Zhuo Yue lived.

"Captain Han, you're here!" As soon as the two arrived at the neighborhood, two plainclothes officers quickly came up to meet them.

"What exactly happened?" Han Lian strode into the neighborhood while asking the two plainclothes officers.

In fact, by then, Ling Zhenfei and Han Lian seemed to have already realized what had happened.

It turned out that in the parking lot beneath the floor where Zhuo Yue lived, several identical black Audis were parked, and at the entrance of the stairwell, two muscular men in black glasses, looking rather intimidating, stood as bodyguards.

These types of bodyguards, at first glance, were known to be employed by either the very wealthy or major underworld figures. Just their presence alone, without needing to make a move, could intimidate opponents.

"Hey, what are you two doing? What are you guarding here in the middle of the night like some door gods?" Seeing these two guys, Han Lian couldn't help but furrow her brow and approached to ask.
