Once inside, getting him out wouldn't be that simple....

"Haha, Lawyer Xu really knows how to joke."

Zhao Qian sneered a few times.

"It's just temporary detention, at most twenty-four hours. Once the suspicion is cleared, the police will naturally let you go."

"You can't be sure about that."

Xu Liang looked at him, speaking softly.

Zhao Qian didn't waste words and simply stepped aside.

"Lawyer Xu... please."

Xu Liang glanced at him and walked away indifferently.

To the police station?

It doesn't matter, he had anticipated this and was prepared.

"Bang!"

Sitting in the police car, Xu Liang looked at the scenery outside the window, squinting slightly.

Whether or not new clues could be found next depended entirely on...

Wang Chao!

...

...

At night, nine-thirty.

"Why can't the call get through!?"

In front of Sunzhou Funeral Home, Wang Chao looked at the dim screen showing that the call couldn't connect, a suspicious look on his face.

According to the plan.

He was supposed to call the other party in front of the funeral home to report safety, but now the call was made, and the other party had no response...

"Forget it, I shouldn't worry."

Wang Chao muttered to himself, putting away his phone and continuing to hide.

The plan didn't mention whether to abort the operation if Xu Liang couldn't be contacted.

But Wang Chao felt he didn't need to worry as the other party had already arranged for this.

Before sending Yang Ruoxi away, he had said that if contact couldn't be made tonight to let Su Yu find his teacher, then he would naturally find him.

So there was no need to worry too much about this.

He continued to wait.

Soon, the time reached nine fifty.

Honestly, Wang Chao felt a bit sleepy now.

But luckily, the night breeze was cool. Just a slight blow made him feel alert and he couldn't help but curl up.

"Damn this ghost weather, coming to this ghost place..."

Wang Chao muttered.

He initially thought tonight would end fruitlessly, Xu Liang guessed wrong when suddenly...

"Buzz~!"

A car stopped not far away.

Someone's here!

"Someone really came? Whose people?"

Wang Chao blinked, seeing the car didn't resemble the funeral home's public vehicle, quickly hid himself nearby.

Shortly.

A slight sound was heard.

"Damn it, what's the point of stealing a corpse? In such cold weather, why do they always make us do these dirty jobs...."

"What's wrong with that, the money is good, few tasks, stealing is stealing, and it's not like we're stealing from the police station, just from the funeral home...."

"Yeah... the money is indeed a lot!"

"Stop nagging, if you keep talking, people will come soon..."

"True, let's hurry up and finish early so we can sleep!"

"..."

Rustling sounds gradually emerged.

Two men got off the van, one tall and one short.

The Big Tall Guy got off the car and alertly looked around, then quickly moved towards the funeral home entrance with swift action.

The funeral home also had business at night, the door didn't need locking, so just a slight push opened it.

"Creak~"

A gust of cold wind drifted through the gap, circling around their necks.

"This late at night... really creepy."

The two clicked their tongues as they spoke, then stopped dawdling and stepped inside.

The two stumbled around.

Soon, they found the location of the morgue.

Shorty took out a piece of wire, tried to pry for a long time but couldn't open it, eventually, the Tall Guy impatiently.

"Let me do it!"

He grabbed the wire and fiddled with it for a while, finally returned it to Shorty.

"You do it instead." The Tall Guy said.

Shorty slightly despised him but understood that the matter was urgent and continued to pry the lock.

He closed his eyes, feeling the sensation from the lock core, finally...

"Snap!"

A crisp spring sound rang out.

"Got it!"

The two's eyes lit up, quickly opened the door.

As the door opened, rows of white-covered morgue beds appeared before them.

The walls on both sides were lined with orderly corpse cabinets.

Shorty lifted the white cloth on one of the beds.

Instantly, a rotten face appeared before him!

His eye twitched, quickly covered the cloth back up.

"Don't be reckless!"

The Tall Guy said, then swept his gaze over the corpse cabinets, finally concentrating on '401'.

"Found the target, it's right in here!"

The Tall Guy whispered.

Seeing this, Shorty again took out the wire and went forward to start prying.

The two busied themselves for a while.

Finally...

"Swoosh~!"

The corpse cabinet was suddenly yanked open, a corpse was pulled in front of the two.

The person inside...

The Tall Guy took out a photo, compared it with the corpse for a moment, then nodded.

"No mistake, it's him!"

"Carry it!"

The two acted swiftly, took out a prepared body bag, put the corpse inside, then carried it on their shoulders and left!

"Bang!"

The cabinet door was pushed back again but now without any corpse inside.

The two quietly left the funeral home, then went to the van parked outside.

"Bang!"

"Really heavy!"

Shorty put the corpse in the trunk, then panted heavily, swearing under his breath.

The Tall Guy said nothing.

He directly started the ignition.

"Buzz~!"

The engine roared to life.

With the spin of rubber tires.

Soon, the two left the scene with the corpse.

...

The car drove all the way, shaking and bumping.

The dilapidated car was on the verge of collapse but never fell apart, driving from the city to the suburbs, finally plunging into an endless forest!

The night before dawn was very dark.

Yet the road seemed familiar to the two, driving purposefully toward the mountain peak.

For a long time.....

"Buzz~"

The car slowly stopped in front of a dilapidated temple.
