Chapter 113: You’ll Be The Example
Ten minutes later, the vehicle stopped at the Disinfection Bureau entrance.
Li Ye hadn’t gotten out yet, Zhong Chang, who was guarding at the main entrance, dashed over swiftly, surging with his One Dragon Gate Qi and Blood. Clearly without a foundation in lightness skill, his running speed was not slow at all. He yanked open the car door and stared straight at him.
Li Ye felt a bit creeped out being stared at. Just as he got out of the car, his hand was tightly gripped by Zhong Chang’s both hands.
He whined like a child tattling, almost crying out:
“Director Li, Jinze City is suffering! You must stand up for us!”
Li Ye was stunned, then smiled. “You know me?”
Zhong Chang said excitedly, “Our Information Section also exchanges information, and we’re neighboring cities. Of course I know your name!”
“Good, saves me from having to clear it again.”
Li Ye shook hands with Zhong Chang a few times, then looked into the car. “This person”
“Liu Huda, a Second Realm Vajra Pass martial artist in Tangyi District of Jinze City, with great influence in Tangyi District.”
Before Li Ye could ask for information, Zhong Chang spoke first. “I’ve also prepared his whole family’s information, Director Li. They can all be killed!”
Hearing this, Li Ye smiled.
“Your business ability is pretty good.”
He walked into the hall, didn’t enter the Bureau Chief’s Office, just glanced at the empty hall, then nodded.
“We’ll work here.”
Zhong Chang immediately ran upstairs, quickly carried down a luxurious office chair, placed it behind Li Ye. “Director Li, you sit.”
Li Ye didn’t stand on ceremony, sat down boldly and powerfully, then Zhong Chang handed over a tablet. “The information is ready!”
He looked at Zhong Chang in surprise, took the tablet, then Bai Rongzu and the other two dragged Liu Huda forward and threw the struggling him to the ground.
After glancing at the tablet, Li Ye raised an eyebrow, then handed it to Bai Rongzu. “Bring this person’s whole family, remember, including his parents’ families. For the others, I only want the martial artists. Can you do it within an hour?”
He had brought Second Realm martial artists for this task.
Bai Rongzu and the others glanced at it, then patted their chests in guarantee. “Director Li, rest assured, we’ll get it done.”
“Go.” Li Ye nodded.
As Bai Rongzu and the others left, Liu Huda suddenly stood up. He had actually been able to move earlier, but the two Second Realm martial artists in the back seat had been pressing him down, locking his Life Gate, making him unable to move in the cramped space, so he could only be brought all the way to the Disinfection Bureau.
But fortunately, it was the Disinfection Bureau.
He glanced at Li Ye sitting in the center, and Zhong Chang standing to the side.
“Zhong Chang, what the hell are you doing? Do you want to die? You…”
Boom!
In the next instant, his head drooped, and the body that had just half-risen seemed to suffer some heavy pressure, crashing back down, sprawling entirely on the floor. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t get up.
“Originally, I was planning to spare your life and send you to the Demon Realm.”
Li Ye glanced at Liu Huda, then roughly finished looking at the tablet’s information, handed it back to Zhong Chang, and said, “But thinking about it, if I don’t kill a few, probably no one will take it seriously. You’ll be the example.”
He had planned to spare Liu Huda’s life to capture him to the Demon Realm, but after seeing the information, he changed his mind.
Liu Huda, thirty-six years old, one wife, two kids, no children—wait, parents above, two uncles, one maternal uncle, one aunt, a whole family of relatives. Not exactly heinous, but riddled with sins.
Threats and intimidation, kidnapping and extortion, arson and murder, forced loans and fraud—anything they could do, they did.
In this Tangyi District, he was a local tyrant. According to the information, the Public Security Bureau had long targeted him, confronted him several times, but without evidence, could only let him go.
“What example? What are you going to do! I don’t care who you are, the Disinfection Bureau has no right to do this! Call the Public Security Bureau!”
The pinned-down Liu Huda shouted loudly, “No evidence, what right does the Disinfection Bureau have to detain people!”
“Boss Liu.”
Zhong Chang said at this time, “Have you forgotten? Last time you came to the Disinfection Bureau and beat our Disinfection Officer, you said something.”
He imitated Liu Huda’s voice, saying viciously, “What is the Disinfection Bureau? Beat without evidence, just because I don’t like you. If you have the guts, kill me.”
After saying that, he smiled slyly. “You said that. Why ask for evidence now? Our Disinfection Bureau never had a rule about evidence.”
Liu Huda paused upon hearing this, then roared again, “Zhong Chang! Are you rebelling? I was acting on the Chen Family’s orders! You can’t bear the consequences of offending the Chen Family!”
Bang!!
“Pfft!”
This time, Liu Huda spat out a mouthful of blood, his body trembled, then went limp like a deflated ball.
“First time hearing a folk martial artist say if our Disinfection Bureau would rebel, and from a ‘trace’ level mouth like yours. So absurd I hardly believe it.”
Li Ye sneered, then looked at Zhong Chang. “Your Disinfection Bureau here has no face at all.”
“Not as lucky as Ningjiang, first got Director Pan Zhengyang, now you, Director Li.”
Zhong Chang smiled bitterly. “Most Disinfection Bureaus are actually like ours.”
“Oh? You don’t seem the same.”
Li Ye smiled, pulled out the Desert Eagle, and handed it over. “I find him noisy. His Vajra Pass is broken by me, now bullets can hit him too. Go, smash his mouth.”
“Director Li, no need to test me. I’ve been waiting for someone just like you!”
Zhong Chang gladly took the gun, walked to Liu Huda, pressed the muzzle against his cheek.
Bang bang bang!
Three shots in a row, blood bursting. Liu Huda’s eyes widened, a muffled roar of pain from his throat, but his mouth, tongue, and teeth were all blown to bits, unable to make a complete cry.
Blood splattered on Zhong Chang’s face, he didn’t wipe it, returned the gun to Li Ye, and said firmly:
“Director Li, as long as the Jinze City Disinfection Bureau can have half the prestige of Ningjiang City’s, I can give up my life!”
Li Ye was stunned, stood up solemnly to take the gun. “Sorry.”
Zhong Chang shook his head. “No need to apologize, Director Li. This is also my resolve. You’ve seen it, so you should feel assured.”
“Assured enough that I want to poach you. Our Information Section Chief retires in a few years. Interested in transferring over?”
Li Ye said, “Of course. Before that, I’ll help you sort out Jinze City.”
The information was prepared in detail, the man was decisive, and seemed determined.
Li Ye naturally wanted such talent.
Zhong Chang smiled. “My honor.”
Unless necessary, he still wanted to preserve his useful body.
Now a powerful bureau chief wanted to poach him, no more suffering in Jinze City. Security for both body and future—only a fool would refuse.
“Tell me about it. What’s the situation in Jinze City now? You should know quite a bit.”
“Yes.”
Jinze City was even worse than the previous Ningjiang City.
If Ningjiang City was half-dominated by the Ren Family, then in Jinze City’s four districts and two counties, the Chen Family was the real behind-the-scenes ruler.
The Ren Family had been low-key in recent years because they raised demonic creatures, but the Chen Family didn’t do that. They contributed, maintained order, benefited the people, so they were very high-profile.
Even Second Realm martial artists like Liu Huda took orders from the Chen Family, not like the cooperative relationship in Ningjiang.
Such an existence—if you wanted to say strike with heavy fists… it was far from that level of dimensional suppression.
If you said any place had grown like a separatist regime, that didn’t exist. If it really did, the military would roll in, Security Bureau would act, and it would be wiped out directly.
But to say small, it wasn’t small for Jinze City.
So the Disinfection Bureau also had the duty to contain such existences.
These things that were big but not too big, small but not too small, wandering between black and white, skirting the edges of rules—martial artists like that were managed by their Disinfection Bureau.
But the problem was, the Disinfection Bureau was rotten and had no ability to manage.
“We can’t fight the Chen Family.”
Zhong Chang said, “The previous bureau chief had ambition but not enough strength, could only recruit some responsible Disinfection Officers, barely maintaining surface balance. But five years ago, our new bureau chief took office and was bought by the Chen Family. Many demonic creature incidents, the bureau chief simply ignored.”
He said hatefully, “That Tongguan Mountain mine area is contracted by the Chen Family for mining. Demonic creatures already emerged last time, even made the news. This Demon Realm incident, I believe is definitely related to them!”
