Under the surveillance of high-altitude drones, Cheng Hong's vehicle continued along the route Han Yang had predicted, eventually turning onto this street, which was relatively more secluded and narrower.

Illuminated by the headlights, the bricks and stones blocking the street ahead were quickly spotted by the driver, who also served as a bodyguard.

"Son of a bitch, who did this? Find out for me tomorrow and kill his whole family!"

Cheng Hong was drunk and cursing.

With the road ahead blocked, the driver could only reverse.

Just then, with a loud bang, a wall behind them also collapsed.

Hmm?

Cheng Hong's eyes narrowed slightly, and most of his drunkenness dissipated.

Something was wrong. It seemed he had driven into a trap.

Daring to rampage through the chaotic Vegetable Market District every night, besides being a local tyrant confident that no one would dare to lay a hand on him, Cheng Hong also had other reliance.

He always had two experienced, battle-hardened bodyguards by his side. The car was also equipped with an emergency alarm, which, once pressed, would bring the duty officers from the Public Security Bureau within ten minutes at the latest.

It was precisely because of sufficient security that Cheng Hong dared to act so unrestrainedly.

Without the slightest hesitation, Cheng Hong immediately pressed the alarm button.

Whether there was trouble or not, he would call for people first.

However, to his surprise, although the alarm was pressed, there was no reaction at all.

Hmm?

He suddenly looked up and saw that on both sides of the car, some burly men in black clothes had appeared at some point. They were holding guns and aiming at the car. One of them was carrying a box-like object with several antennas on it and some flashing buttons.

Signal jammer!

Cheng Hong recognized it in an instant.

No wonder the alarm didn't react!

These people even had signal jammers prepared, clearly having planned this for a long time!

The two bodyguards' eyes were fierce, and their hands quietly moved towards the guns at their waists. Cheng Hong said in a deep voice, "Don't act rashly!"

Rolling down the car window, Cheng Hong immediately raised his hands, indicating that he was not a threat, and then said, "Gentlemen, why are you stopping me?"

Looking at Cheng Hong's figure, Zhang Dazhu felt his whole body's blood boiling.

He, a porter in the vegetable market, could actually point a pistol at the head of the Public Security Bureau one day!

In the past, let alone pointing a gun at him, he probably wouldn't even dare to look at him.

Fortunately, Shen the Butcher's special training during this period and the nighttime "drills" had worked.

The pistol team members were occasionally pulled out for drills by Shen the Butcher at night. The drill involved killing, and the targets were some pre-selected, utterly evil gang members.

The pistol team members would cooperate with each other, taking advantage of the night to forcibly raid, kill, and then leave.

Every member of the pistol team had seen blood, with at least three or four lives on their hands!

Following Han Yang's previous instructions, Zhang Dazhu said in a deep voice, "Our boss would like to invite Director Cheng for a visit. Don't worry, your safety can be guaranteed."

Director Cheng?

They know my identity!

How do they know my route? Have they been monitoring me all this time? Have they been planning this for a long time?

Cheng Hong slowly said, "You know my identity? Alright, kidnapping a Public Security Bureau director, do you know what the crime is? Do you think the Earth Guard is just for show?"

Zhang Dazhu said, "We are just following orders. Director Cheng, please don't make things difficult for us. Otherwise, we can only forcibly invite you."

"Forcibly? Do you know who these two bodyguards of mine are? Elite retired soldiers from the Earth Guard, with your few people... Heh heh. What future can you have following your boss? Why don't you tell me who your boss is, let me go, and consider it a favor I owe you. I also have 500,000 cash in my car, which is also yours."

500,000 cash, plus a favor from a Public Security Bureau director, the implications of this were obvious.

Cheng Hong carefully observed the reactions of these people. But to his surprise, these people were completely unmoved by such a huge temptation.

Mr. Han gave us dignity, gave us food and clothing, Mr. Han is leading us to do righteous things, and you want to tempt us to betray him? Dream on!

"Director Cheng, please don't make things difficult for us. Although your two bodyguards are elites, we can definitely kill you before our team is wiped out."

Cheng Hong was stunned for a moment, thousands of thoughts flashed through his mind, and the next moment he very readily pushed open the car door and got out: "I'll go with you."

Several dilapidated cars appeared silently. Under the strict supervision of the pistol team, the three were escorted to the Fuxing Base.

On the other hand, several ordinary security guards from the security team also drove back. One person in the car was tied up tightly and wearing a hood. When the hood was removed, it was none other than Zhou Da'an.

Compared to the long-term planning required to deal with Cheng Hong, capturing Zhou Da'an was effortless; they just needed to grab him directly.

Cheng Hong's hands were untied, and his hood was removed. He immediately saw a person sitting in the front seat. That person was looking at him with a smile.

Han Yang!

Cheng Hong's eyes narrowed.

This was Han Yang's background? He had just planned to test him twice, and he had already found out that it was him, and then decisively kidnapped him?

"Boss Han?"

Cheng Hong remained calm and collected. "You asked me to come over so late. What's the matter?"

Han Yang smiled and said, "I've always wanted to visit Supervisor Cheng, but unfortunately, I never had the chance. Now I've truly encountered something that requires Supervisor Cheng's help, so I had no choice but to use this method. Please forgive me, Supervisor Cheng."

"Oh? What trouble has Boss Han encountered? Tell me about it."

"It's nothing major." Han Yang put away his smile and sighed. "Our Vegetable Market District has always been unstable. I can't even do business properly; it's always one person or another causing trouble."

Cheng Hong's heart stirred.

As expected, Han Yang had already found out that he was the one testing him!

However, when you're under someone else's roof, you have to bow your head. No matter what, he had to get through today. Once he was safe again, how he would deal with Han Yang would be entirely up to him.

"Is it about Zhou Da'an and the Iron Wolf Gang?" Cheng Hong was very straightforward and blunt. "That's right, I instructed them. Boss Han has a powerful background, and I wasn't at ease, so I made a move to test you. I'm sure Boss Han can understand.

Now it seems it was all a misunderstanding. It's best if we just talk things out. We can discuss anything; there's no need to make things so difficult."

Since he had been caught, being stubborn was pointless. It was better to be direct and honest.

Unexpectedly, the Han Yang in front of him was stunned for a moment, seemingly very surprised.

"What? This was all instructed by Supervisor Cheng?"

Han Yang was speechless inwardly.

He really hadn't expected this.

He hadn't even investigated, so how could he have known it was Cheng Hong who instructed it?

"But it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter." Han Yang waved his hand, a smile reappearing on his face. "I just want to find a backer. How about Supervisor Cheng being my backer?"
