But the owner, trembling all over, said, “I’ll add some more meat for you, as a free gift.”

Qing Chen smiled and said, “No need, we have money.”

At this moment, Tuan Zi whispered to Sun Chu Ci, “Senior, shall we leave? I’m a bit scared.”

“Don’t be afraid, I think it’s alright,” Sun Chu Ci quickly regained his composure after a brief panic and continued walking into the shop.

Qing Hua gave a signal, and Yang Xuyang, leading two detectives, searched Sun Chu Ci and the others, and a female detective was specifically arranged to search Tuan Zi and the group.

Qing Chen did not interfere. Tonight’s matter was too important, and it was always better to be safe than sorry.

Qing Chen said with a smile, “You just greeted me a moment ago. Letting you go now might make you targets for kidnapping by those with ulterior motives. So, you should stay here and have a meal, my treat. Once my business is concluded, you can leave safely.”

“Um, thanks,” Sun Chu Ci nodded.

Qing Chen asked curiously, “How have you been since you got back to City Number 10?”

“With the reward you gave us, we rented a new place and also replaced some weapons and gear. That money should last us until after the New Year, by which time we plan to make another trip to the wilderness,” replied Sun Chu Ci.

Eighty-five thousand might sound like a lot, but it wasn’t excessive for seven people to survive the winter—certainly not enough to replace their weapons and gear with anything of quality.

Qing Chen made no further comment. Dealing with the Zheng City Time Traveler required a slow and cautious approach. Being too enthusiastic could arouse suspicion of ulterior motives.

At that moment, Qing Zhun pushed open the door to the BBQ restaurant and came in, all smiles. “Boss, the people from Deer Island have arrived. Shall we prepare for the transaction?”

Qing Chen glanced at Qing Zhun and immediately called Shadow.

The phone connected, and a familiar voice came through, sounding lethargic, “Are you ready?”

Qing Chen looked at Qing Zhun thoughtfully, then said, “Hmm, the Deer Island people have arrived. Are you ready on your end?”

“I’m ready here, but you be smart too—be careful not to mess up. After all, when chaos erupts, bullets don’t have eyes,” Shadow warned.

“I know,” Qing Chen said and then stood up.

Before leaving, he glanced at Qing Zhun, “Is everything prepared on the other side?”

Qing Zhun, still smiling, said, “All set.”

As they were talking, he suddenly pulled out a silenced pistol and fired at the two detectives beside Qing Chen.

The detectives hadn’t even had the chance to react before they collapsed, darkness overtaking their sight.

Sun Chu Ci and the others were terrified; people were being killed without a word of warning!

Tuan Zi, who had been picking up meat, hastily placed it back on the grill in alarm.

Knowing Qing Chen did not want to kill, Qing Zhun explained, “Tonight’s business is crucial, and we don’t have the time to take these two back, right? They’d just be a burden.”

“I can distinguish between priorities. Is there anything else?” Qing Chen asked, shaking his head.

Qing Zhun thought for a moment, “That should be it.”

“96 detectives, and it turns out 5 are traitors. Qing Zhun, you are the Trainee Inspector in charge of internal discipline. I don’t want to see this happen again. After tonight, there should be no more hidden dangers within Squad Seven,” Qing Chen said without looking back as he walked out of the BBQ restaurant.

“Got it, Boss!” Qing Zhun called after him cheerfully.

Behind Qing Chen, dozens of detectives followed closely.

In a matter of half a minute, the BBQ restaurant was emptied, leaving it eerily silent.

Sun Chu Ci put down his chopsticks, silently gazed at the two bodies on the floor, then turned to look out the window, watching the young man disappear into the brilliant neon lights outside.

“Senior, what exactly does he do?” Tuan Zi asked cautiously.

“Don’t know. He must be some big shot from a corporation. Let’s just stay here. Definitely do not go outside,” Sun Chu Ci said. “He seems dangerous. I’m not sure if we should get involved with him.”

Another member of their team pondered and then ventured, “But I think he’s a good person…”

Meanwhile, in the Secret Prison of Intelligence Department One, the assassin who had been captured for attacking Jindai Street suddenly opened his eyes.

He walked to the narrow iron door of the Secret Prison and pushed it lightly, and the door swung open.

For some reason, the door, which should have been securely locked, had been unlocked well in advance.

The Secret Prison was empty, and the guards who should have been there were nowhere to be found.

The assassin, expressionless, entered the code and pressed the elevator button, evidently knowing the password for the Secret Prison’s elevator too.

The elevator arrived, and he rode it to the third floor.

At this hour, Squad Seven’s offices in Intelligence Department One were deserted and the lights were all turned off.

He entered another password and headed to the washroom on the third floor. He opened the toilet tank and retrieved a sealed bag, from which he took out a set of listening devices.

Then the assassin made his way back to the Inspector’s office.

But as he pulled open the door to enter, he nearly tripped over something.

Before the assassin could react, the lights in the office suddenly turned on, and four detectives were already inside, guns raised and ready.

The next second, four guns fired simultaneously, tearing the assassin apart with bullets.

Tonight, Qing Chen was taking advantage of the Jindai Yasuhara transaction to settle all his affairs at once.

Qing Zhun had always said that there were still traitors yet to be caught, but they were difficult to find and needed to be lured out.

It was only tonight that Qing Zhun noticed something amiss.

The reason Qing Zhun hadn’t found the two traitors earlier was that they weren’t assisting Jindai, the Li Family, the Chen Clan, or Deer Island; they were helping Qing’s main house.

In the broader context of the Clan, these two detectives were serving the Qing’s as well, which was why Qing Zhun hadn’t identified them immediately.

But now, for Squad Seven of Intelligence Department One as it stood today, the detectives’ loyalties could only belong to one person.
