The two police officers were taken aback and turned their questioning gazes towards Big Fat Liu.

Big Fat Liu opened his mouth, about to speak, when Han Lian preempted him with a stern voice, "Team Liu, may I ask if it would be possible to not handcuff her as a personal favor to me?"

Big Fat Liu's lips twitched slightly, and a strange smile appeared on his face as he said, "Since Captain Han has said this, it would be disrespectful for me not to comply. Alright, we'll do as Captain Han wishes!"

Understanding the situation, one officer on each side gripping Xie Lina's arms, escorted her downstairs and into a police car.

Big Fat Liu gave Han Lian a glance and said, "Captain Han, this case is of great importance. If it's not handled well, it will be difficult to explain to all parties concerned. You must handle this with care!"

Han Lian nodded solemnly, "Please rest assured, Team Liu, I will handle it with caution."

Big Fat Liu nodded, gave one last look to Ling Zhenfei, Han Lian, and Zhuo Yue, then turned and stepped into the police car that held Xie Lina.

The police car started up and quickly vanished into the night.

"What should we do now? Sister Lina has been taken away by them. What should we do?"

Zhuo Yue was a person with a warm heart, and upon seeing this situation, became even more anxious than Ling Zhenfei and Han Lian: "Ling Zhenfei, Sister Han Lian, think of something quickly! Sister Lina is in a very unstable state right now, I'm worried..."

"Han Lian, what do you think we should do?" Ling Zhenfei didn't say anything, instead, he turned his gaze towards Han Lian.

After pacing back and forth, Han Lian finally clenched her silver teeth and said determinedly, "Let's not talk too much now, we must go together to the Jingquan Branch Bureau immediately to bail her out!"

Without further discussion, Han Lian personally drove, taking Ling Zhenfei and Zhuo Yue, and rushed towards the Jingquan Police Sub-bureau...

The three of them drove to the Jingquan Branch Bureau and found Big Fat Liu.

Before Han Lian could ask him where Xie Lina was being held, Big Fat Liu simply spread his hands and said, "You're too late, Captain Han. Just now, Director Luo from the City Bureau sent people over and transferred that woman away!"

What? Xie Lina was actually taken away by Luo Dingbei?

Hearing that Luo Dingbei was so well-informed and had transferred Xie Lina to the City Public Security Bureau in no time, both Ling Zhenfei and Han Lian couldn't help but be greatly surprised.

Although Luo Dingbei was the deputy director of the City Bureau, he was in charge of criminal investigation, and also acting as interim director since Director Guo Qing'an was away on a trip. Currently, he virtually had the final say in the entire Binyang City Public Security System.

However, Han Lian couldn't figure out why Luo Dingbei, who had many matters to manage, would want to interfere with this case specifically. What exactly are his intentions?

"What now?" This sudden turn of events left Han Lian somewhat at a loss as she blankly looked towards Ling Zhenfei.

"There's nothing we can do, since Xie Lina has been taken to the City Bureau, we can only go to Deputy Director Luo to request her release!"

Ling Zhenfei smiled and spread his hands, then made a motion with his lips towards Han Lian, the meaning couldn't be clearer. He was just a civilian, and Han Lian was part of the police force; such matters had to be handled by her.

"Alright, let's go! We'll go to Director Luo to request her release!"

Although Han Lian also felt this matter was quite troublesome, she couldn't stand idly by since it had fallen into her lap. She gestured for Ling Zhenfei and Zhuo Yue to get into the car and then drove towards the Binyang Public Security Bureau.

By the time everyone arrived at the Binyang City Public Security Bureau, night had fallen. Still, the entrance of the police station was brightly lit, with numerous officers busily moving back and forth.

Upon grabbing an officer and inquiring, Han Lian learned that it was Le Jianxing, Le Wu Ya's father, who, upon hearing that his son's ear had been bitten, furiously dragged a high-ranking official to Luo Dingbei's doorstep, demanding that the perpetrator be severely punished.

Luo Dingbei had served as Deputy Director for many years and was worried about missing opportunities for further advancement. Seeing the high-ranking official arrive in person, he dared not neglect the matter and sent the pair of important visitors on their way with smooth talk; he immediately phoned Big Fat Liu to have the suspect transferred to the Main Bureau.

Now, Luo Dingbei was insisting on personally interrogating Xie Lina!

Upon hearing this, Han Lian grew anxious.

She was of course very familiar with Deputy Director Luo, known for his sycophancy, whose character was nowhere near as upright and selfless as the City Bureau Chief, Guo Qing'an. Now that Luo Dingbei was about to personally interrogate Xie Lina, it was evident that it would be disadvantageous for her.

After some thought, without any further delay, she asked Ling Zhenfei and Zhuo Yue to wait for a moment in the reception room before she went ahead to explain the situation to the director.

In the reception room, Zhuo Yue was extremely anxious seeing Han Lian head off with such urgency, while Ling Zhenfei maintained a calm and composed demeanor, sitting on the sofa with one leg crossed over the other, sipping tea and watching television as if thoroughly enjoying himself.

Zhuo Yue, seeing his nonchalant behavior, approached and tugged at his sleeve, rebuking, "Ling Zhenfei, don't you feel the slightest bit anxious?"

"Anxious?"

Ling Zhenfei leisurely shifted his attention from the television program, and after taking a glance at Zhuo Yue, he quickly turned back to the screen with lingering interest, asking, "What are you anxious about?"

Zhuo Yue was infuriated by his indifferent attitude and pouted, "Didn't you hear what Sister Han Lian just said? That old guy Le Jianxing has already put pressure on Deputy Director Luo. Deputy Director Luo might harm Bella."

"Deputy Director Luo will harm Bella?"

A faint smile surfaced on Ling Zhenfei's face as he said, "I seem to recall Han Lian mentioning that Director Luo wanted to interrogate Xie Lina, but I didn't hear anything about him planning to harm Bella!"

"Oh, Ling Zhenfei, how could someone as clever as you make such a naive mistake?"

Seeing Ling Zhenfei's unconcerned demeanor, Zhuo Yue was so exasperated she nearly stomped her foot: "Haven't you thought about the kind of society we live in? With collusion between government officials and businessmen, I've reported plenty of such cases before!

I think this Deputy Director Luo Dingbei and Le Wu Ya's father are two peas in a pod. If the Le family offers him some benefits, wouldn't he listen to them? Just by fabricating some charges, couldn't he have Sister Lina dealt with?"

The urgency in Zhuo Yue's heart was truly burning like fire.

"Zhuo Maid, stop talking!" Zhuo Yue was speaking fervently when Ling Zhenfei interrupted her with a wave of his hand.

His eyes flashed sharply as he said, "I refuse to believe that in this clear and bright world, under the solemnity of the law, someone would dare to be corrupt and unjust! I don't care how high-ranking Luo Dingbei is—if he dares to break the law, I won't let him off easily. I'll make sure he gets his just desserts!"

After speaking, he nodded at Zhuo Yue, indicating that she should continue waiting in the reception room. He was indeed keen on finding out whether Deputy Director Luo Dingbei, who wielded the mighty weapon of law, was virtuous or corrupt.

Once he found out the location of the interrogation room, Ling Zhenfei didn't linger for a moment and bolted towards it.

As he approached the interrogation room, still separated by a thick door, he could already hear an intense argument raging within, reaching his ears.
