Orderly tyrant

The next day.

February 8th, morning.

Xiao Peidong sat in his office, casually browsing the day's news highlights. As if inadvertently, he flipped to a seemingly insignificant online news report.

Hidden within this seemingly ordinary news was a coded message that only he could understand.

“ROMANCE Bar within three days?”

Xiao Peidong understood that this was a message left specifically for him by Zhou Yang, the woman behind the scenes of the Iridian Society's underground boxing ring.

It meant that she had made arrangements. Within three days, as long as Lin Qing went to search this bar, he could 'coincidentally' discover that terrifying wanted criminal who had escaped from Qinghu Island Prison.

Chu Tianyao.

A powerhouse whose strength was no less than the captain of the main team. Not to mention a captain-level officer, even if he were to unleash his true strength, he would undoubtedly die.

Of course, he also knew that it was too coincidental for these siblings to encounter Chu Tianyao.

But he had already thought of an excuse.

Moreover… he had no way out.

“I need to prepare.”

Xiao Peidong walked out of his office, then smiled and walked to the deputy captain's office on the same floor, knocking on the door.

“Come in.”

Lin Qing's voice came from inside.

When Xiao Peidong entered the office, he found Lin Qing standing in front of the mirror, adjusting his patrol uniform. The executive assistant, Zhao Jiayi, was standing on tiptoe, helping him attach the epaulets to the shoulders of the uniform.

On the epaulets were two pairs of wing-shaped golden patterns and a star.

The epaulets of a Level 3 Patrol Officer.

“Team Leader Lin, did the new uniform arrive?”

Xiao Peidong asked with a smile, “How is it? Does it fit well?”

“It's alright, a little loose,” Lin Qing said.

“There's no way around that. The patrol officer's uniform is special. Unless you can't find a similar size, it won't be custom-made,” Xiao Peidong couldn't help but smile.

“Is it because the material of this uniform is special?” Lin Qing asked.

“Yes.”

Xiao Peidong nodded and said, “The clothes, shoes, and even the inner layers are made of special materials. They're very sturdy. After all, the combat power of a patrol officer is far beyond that of ordinary people. Once they unleash their strength, ordinary materials will easily tear, affecting their performance.”

He smiled and said, “I heard that this special material was developed by the Dawn Group. Such a set of uniforms is worth hundreds of thousands outside.”

“I see.”

At this moment, Lin Qing had also finished adjusting his uniform, and Zhao Jiayi had also helped him button up his epaulets.

Lin Qing took a step back and looked at himself in the mirror. The exquisite black patrol uniform made him look even more upright and handsome.

He nodded with satisfaction and said to Zhao Jiayi, “Okay, help me issue an order to the entire team of patrol officers to assemble at the branch office as quickly as possible, fully equipped and ready to move out at any time.”

“Got it.”

Zhao Jiayi walked to the work computer and began entering the instructions.

Xiao Peidong couldn't help but pause slightly and asked, “Team Leader Lin, why are you suddenly mobilizing the entire team? Where are you going?”

“Temporary mission, emergency situation.”

Lin Qing looked at Xiao Peidong and said, “If Captain Xiao has time, you can come along.”

“What's the specific situation?” Xiao Peidong asked.

“This is a requirement from the Municipal Public Security Bureau.”

Lin Qing said, “The Public Security Bureau received a tip from an enthusiastic citizen, saying that they discovered the wanted criminal 'Chu Tianyao' who escaped from Qinghu Island Prison. Someone saw him leaving Changshui Street and suspected that he had accomplices hiding and sheltering him. The Municipal Public Security Bureau requires us to immediately go to Changshui Street for a search.”

Xiao Peidong couldn't help but be stunned: “Chu Tianyao was discovered?”

Impossible!

His first reaction was that it was fake news.

He knew that Chu Tianyao was only staying in Lin'an City because of the BOSS's order and would only listen to the three orders of Sister Yang from the Iridian Society, namely Zhou Yang.

With Chu Tianyao's strength, if he wanted to hide, how could he be discovered by some enthusiastic citizen?

However, Chu Tianyao had indeed moved to that bar called ROMANCE, waiting for Lin Qing to take action when he went to search.

That bar was on Dongmao Road, while Changshui Street was where the Iridian Society's underground boxing ring was located.

Perhaps Chu Tianyao was accidentally discovered when he left Changshui Street?

As for accomplices or something, maybe it was the people from the Iridian Society responsible for sending Chu Tianyao away?

“Wait…”

Xiao Peidong suddenly had an idea, pretending to be puzzled on the surface and said, “Changshui Street? I remember that the last time we searched the Iridian Society's underground boxing ring, it was in Changshui Street, right?”

“Yes, perhaps Chu Tianyao is related to the Iridian Society?”

Lin Qing said, “This time, I'll search carefully again. Maybe I can find the Iridian Society's underground boxing ring.”

Xiao Peidong was silent for a moment, then smiled and nodded, “Team Leader Lin's guess is also reasonable, then let's search carefully again, but Team Leader Lin must also be careful, that fugitive Chu Tianyao is very ferocious.”

“It's okay, this time the target is only those accomplices who are hiding and sheltering him.” Lin Qing waved his hand.

“Okay, I'll go back and prepare and act immediately.”

Xiao Peidong nodded, then turned and quickly left the office.

As he walked out, a hint of ecstasy appeared in his eyes.

“Hahaha…”

“This Lin Qing is really courting death! He actually dares to take the initiative to look for Chu Tianyao?”

“Isn't this giving me a reason and opportunity to ask Chu Tianyao to take action?”

“With Chu Tianyao's terrifying strength, as long as he wants to take action, a mere patrol team can't stop him at all!”

Xiao Peidong quickly walked back to his office, took out a hidden spare mobile phone again, and quickly sent a message to Zhou Yang's side.

Not long after.

“This is much better than the original plan.”

Xiao Peidong crushed the phone into powder and couldn't help but reveal a smile: “Courting death, no one can stop it.”

……

The newest novel is first published at 69shuba!

In just ten minutes, patrol cars sped out of the patrol branch's yard and rushed to Changshui Street.

At this time, the Public Security Bureau had completely blocked Changshui Street, and even passing vehicles were checked one by one.

Black patrol cars rushed over quickly and stopped within the cordon of Changshui Street, and then patrol officers in uniform black suits quickly got out of the cars.

“Groups one and two, go to Qingtai Hotel to search, pay attention to the VIP elevator in the parking lot.”

“Group three, assist the Public Security Bureau in verifying the identity information of all passers-by.”

“Group four…”

Inside the leading patrol car, a light sedan model, Lin Qing held his work phone and quickly issued instructions based on the suggestions of the patrol system's AI assistant.

Zhao Jiayi tilted her head and looked out the car window.

After Lin Qing put down his work phone, he picked up his personal phone and sent a message to Director Chu of the Municipal Public Security Bureau——

【Thank you, Director Chu, for accompanying me on this endeavor】

Director Chu also immediately replied with a sentence——

【It's nothing】

Lin Qing didn't say much, immediately put away his phone, and took Zhao Jiayi out of the car.

Yes.

There was no such good thing as an enthusiastic citizen reporting, it was just an excuse for a surprise operation.

Besides him, only two people knew the plan for this operation.

“Team Leader Lin.” Captain Xiao walked over and asked, “How will we search next? Are we going to check the Red Oak Boxing Gym?”

“Captain Xiao, don't rush.”

Lin Qing suggested, “Anyway, Changshui Street has been completely blocked now, why not confirm it step by step and gradually narrow the search circle, what do you think?”

“That makes sense.” Xiao Peidong nodded slightly, “Then I'll go help first.”

After speaking, he turned and left.

He didn't want to get splashed with blood when Chu Tianyao appeared and took action later.

Lin Qing looked at Xiao Peidong's back and didn't say much, just looked around and thought to himself, “Still not appearing?”

He was preparing to search the underground boxing ring below the Red Oak Boxing Gym, but he couldn't just go and check it like that.

When his cousin led people to check the Iridian Society's place, she was seriously injured by Chu Tianyao, which made people have to suspect the relationship between Chu Tianyao and the Iridian Society.

If that Qinghu Island fugitive Chu Tianyao was hiding in the underground boxing ring, wouldn't he be courting death if he led people in to search?

Even if his strength had greatly increased now, he didn't have much confidence in confronting him head-on.

Fortunately, he found a countermeasure.

That's why there was this ostentatious search operation.

“Regardless of whether Xiao Peidong is an informant or not, a newly promoted patrol officer like me closely following the Iridian Society is an undeniable threat. If I let it go, problems will arise sooner or later.”

“If the Iridian Society is really connected to Chu Tianyao, they should take this opportunity to let Chu Tianyao take action against me…”

Lin Qing looked at the search scene, secretly pondered, and also prepared for it.

Suddenly——

【Current Order Level decreased by 1.0 level】

At this moment, a line of scarlet, blood-like prompts suddenly appeared in front of Lin Qing!

Directly decreased by 1 level??

Lin Qing couldn't help but shrink his pupils.

This was definitely the most terrifying danger he had ever encountered in his previous and current lives!!
