The man had a gun pressed to his forehead by Jiang Xiaohui, yet he did not show the slightest sign of panic.
He said, "Do you know what you're doing?"
Jiang Xiaohui kicked him. "And do you know what you're doing? You actually dared point a gun at my Big Brother. What the hell are you?" As he spoke, he kicked him again. I did not stop him. Sometimes, Jiang Xiaohui's method was the simplest and most effective way to deal with people like this.
I asked Jiang Xiaohui, "Didn't you catch up to them?"
"Don't worry. They're fine. Just like you, they got bitten by a bunch of stray mutts."
The moment I heard that, I understood. Ying Gou and the others had probably been tangled up with people from the Administration Bureau as well.
Why had the Administration Bureau suddenly appeared here, and with such a clear target? That meant the Administration Bureau had also learned of Wu Kaishan's whereabouts, or of the outsiders who wanted Wu Kaishan dead. That was why they had set an ambush here, intending to catch all those outsiders in one sweep.
After thinking it over, I took out my phone and called Xu Qiuyan directly.
I asked Xu Qiuyan whether she knew about this operation by the Administration Bureau. She said she did not. She had also asked her mother, who likewise knew nothing about it. The mission had been issued by someone from the Liu Family, but she told me to hand the phone to the team leader. She said she would handle this matter.
It would naturally be best if she could handle it. To be honest, although I had no favorable impression of the Administration Bureau, I did not want to truly fall out with them at a time
