Crazy Night

  The foreign affairs department has once again become the focus of attention in the bureau, but this time it's not Director Li who is taking center stage, but rather Shi Li, the director-in-waiting who has been highly touted. Shi Li has once again mysteriously disappeared from within the hospital, right under the noses of three police officers, two nurses, and an entire hospital full of people.

  "Director Li, I'm telling you, it must be Zhao Liming's doing. Otherwise, how could Shi Li disappear just after I left? She never had good intentions towards Shi Li!"

  Li Kezhang was just inhaling the smoke into his lungs when Liu Li's words choked him again, causing him to cough nonstop.

  "Little comrade, you're making progress, learning to write reports and trying to fit in with the collective."

  Li Ke's words made Liu Li feel an urge to bite him, and she warned herself in her heart: Impulsiveness is the devil!

  "Ugh! Where did you say Shili went?"

  "Hmm, let me think about it."

  Li Kezhang thought seriously for half a day, a cigarette had burned to the butt, and he was still gazing into the distance.

  "Director Li, have you thought it through?"

  "What? What's on your mind?"

  Li Kezhang looked bewildered, while Liu Li stood up with a humph.

  "Ugh! I'm so worried about you, and you're pretending to be senile. Humph, I won't talk to you anymore!"

  Liu Li stormed off in a huff, and only then did Director Li's expression turn solemn. He let out a long sigh, picked up his phone, and dialed a number he didn't want to think about.

  "Hey, Old Yu? It's me... Your mouth is still as sharp as ever... Yeah, I need a favor from you."

  The sky has darkened, and the wind between the streets is chillingly cold. Autumn has really arrived.

  History walked in the alley, fingers tracing the rough wall, a faintly painful feeling spreading from the bottom of my heart.

  The night sky was devoid of starlight, and there were no floating clouds, a pure darkness shrouded the city. Shili wore a suit that didn't fit him, making him look comical. He felt something boiling in his blood, his mouth was dry and his throat itched as if ants were crawling inside, his limbs felt heavy like they were filled with lead, while his heart had a wicked fire burning, driving him to do something.

  This feeling is not unfamiliar in history lessons, and it's often seen in educational videos for police officers. That's addiction.

  In the past seven days, it is hard to imagine that humans could have endured the pain of their souls being stripped bare without those doses of morphine.

  "But in the end it was still successful!"

  Shi Li leaned against the wall, panting, with a reckless smile in his eyes.

  On a night like this, there are many people who have nothing to lose. For example, Wang Nian, the general manager of Qifeng Chuangye Co., Ltd., who is on the run from the law, and Killer Heaven's Messenger, who is being pursued by Yang Ming for failing to complete his mission. There is also someone who seems to be an outsider, but is also fleeing for their life.

  He's just a small fry, Big Brother Wang.

  Big Brother Wang really didn't know that the people upstairs valued Lily so much, thinking she was just like other girls who came out to work, only doing simple flesh trade. But when his boss Gao Tian heard that Lily had run away with someone, the fear on his face made Big Brother Wang's heart tremble. If Gao Tian wanted to cut off one of his legs because of this matter, Big Brother Wang thought it was very possible. Although he didn't understand why.

  Originally, things wouldn't have developed in the worst direction. Big Brother Wang only needed to pretend to search around the city, and he definitely wouldn't find anyone. At most, he would get a good beating, but nothing serious would happen. However, Big Brother Wang was too young, and young people can't control their curiosity. Last night, Big Brother Wang went alone to look for Gao Tian, wanting to understand why Lily was so important, but unexpectedly overheard a conversation.

  If time could flow backwards, Big Brother Wang would choose to sleep at home. But time won't flow backwards, so Big Brother Wang can only ponder the meaning of that conversation on his escape route.

  "The west district is his turf, we can only mobilize people from our community and company."

  "Hmm, enough, even if Wang Nian can fight again, he's no match for a dozen people."

  "Director Yang, don't underestimate him. Wang Nian and I have known each other since childhood. This kid is crazy when he fights, and it's not certain that ten or so people can take him down."

  "And what if I add a killer to that? Archangel, I've invested in this. He's already starting to suspect the company's accounts, this time it must succeed!"

  Big Brother Wang was sweating profusely, and just as he was about to sneak away quietly, he was spotted by a brother who happened to be passing through the corridor. The man gave him a casual greeting, unaware of what had transpired. Big Brother Wang knew he was done for. In extraordinary times, one must take extraordinary measures - Big Brother Wang understood this principle all too well, having been taken on many such escapades by Gao Tian in his youth. Without waiting for the people in the room to react, Big Brother Wang began his flight.

  It turned out that Big Brother Wang was right, and everyone in the gang was chasing him down, including those two new recruits he had brought with him.

  "My god, they're all crazy!"

  Big Brother Wang hid in a vacant villa on the west outskirts, where a pair of wild mandarin ducks were tied up tightly in a corner.

  This villa is an asset of Qifeng Venture, and after its completion, it has not been sold due to the high price tag. It has been idle for four or five years, with the administrator coming to check on the doors and windows every month, making it a good hiding spot.

  Big Brother Wang knew this place because he had once kidnapped a beautiful female college student from a nearby university. He didn't expect that today, hiding here would unexpectedly discover a pair of college students in the midst of wild sex. Big Brother Wang didn't want to interfere with them, each doing their own thing was fine. But after being discovered by the girl, they started fighting and it ended up like this.

  This boy is obviously practicing Taekwondo, although it's flashy but not practical, his kicks still hurt a lot.

  Big Brother Wang finished eating all the snacks in the girl's pocket, and his frantic mood finally calmed down a bit. He stared at the couple in the corner of the wall, his eyes scanning back and forth with a fierce light.

  "Or else, kill him?"

  Big Brother Wang asked himself. Although he was mixed with the underworld, he had never killed anyone before. The most ruthless time was when he cut off his opponent's tendons and ended up vomiting for a whole week. But now, if someone discovered his tracks, all that awaited him was death.

  "My old man doesn't want to die, so you all go die!"

  Big Brother Wang picked up a brick and walked towards the couple, who had their mouths stuffed with underwear and suddenly let out unclear screams.

  "This is the first time in life, and it's actually two."

  Big Brother Wang's hand trembled, and just as he was hesitating, a motorcycle sound suddenly came from outside the villa. He quickly ran to the side of the floor-to-ceiling window and looked out, a black figure riding a motorcycle drove into the courtyard, then fell headfirst, and there was no more movement.

  "What's wrong with everyone today? Have they all gone mad?"

  Big Brother Wang carried the brick back and looked at the male and female university students in the corner of the wall, then turned his head to look at the black shadow in the courtyard that was motionless. He hesitated for a moment. In the end, he dropped the brick and went downstairs to the yard, dragging the blood-covered person into the villa.

  It's actually Wang Nian!

  Big Brother Wang knows Wang Nian, but Wang Nian does not know Big Brother Wang.

  Wang Nian has always idolized Big Brother Wang, after all, there is only one person who can transform from a young hoodlum to a well-known entrepreneur, and that is Wang Nian.

  "Dad's fortune is about to change!"

  Big Brother Wang was so excited that his eyes turned green with excitement.

  Shi Li had arrived at his rental house, swallowed a few morphine tablets and was watching the news.

  This house is located in the central area of the city, with one bedroom and one living room. It was rented seven days ago using a fake ID. He has decided to make himself disappear from society so that he can do some things more conveniently.

  Although substitute pills are not as effective as morphine, they are after all the latest products of modern science and technology, and Shi Li's hands and feet no longer tremble.

  "It's already started merging, that guy who rained down in a torrent is really smarter than me!"

  After retrieving his belongings from the storage locker at the train station, Shilei wandered around the city for a while to make sure no one was following him before returning to his rental house. After changing out of the clothes he had stolen from the hospital's backyard, Shilei finally felt a little more like himself.

  Having been a policeman for almost ten years, I never thought I would end up becoming a thief.

  He couldn't help but smile bitterly at the history.

  Local news is still about trivial matters, but Shilei stared at the screen intently. After hearing about the Qifeng Entrepreneurship beating a pregnant woman to death for demanding wages this morning, he had an ominous premonition, but the people around him refused to tell him the truth, their eyes darting back and forth. The newspaper didn't mention the name of the deceased pregnant woman, but Shilei felt uneasy in his heart.

  Gao Qin's phone has been unreachable, and her neighbor said she left early yesterday morning.

  Shi Li wanted to go to the hospital to identify the body, but she didn't dare to, afraid of facing the reality.

  Now Shi Li should go find Chuan Yu and complete their unfinished experiment. But Shi Li sat in front of the TV, lost in thought.

  Suddenly, Shi Li's ears moved slightly, and his gaze refocused on the TV screen. A face that Shi Li hated so much that he wanted to bite it appeared on the screen, followed by the gentle voice of the female host rushing into his mind.

  "Latest news, local top ten enterprises, Qifeng Entrepreneurship Co., Ltd. General Manager Wang Nian suddenly went missing, followed by the Audit Bureau's intervention investigation, and his company's accounts showed a huge deficit. According to preliminary statistics, about 800 million yuan, including the recent sports park project payment of 80 million yuan in the name of the company..."

  Shi Li Meng suddenly stood up, a white light flashed before his eyes, and he felt dizzy.

  "You actually think you can escape? Do you think you can get away?"

  Shi Li stood still, trembling uncontrollably for a long time before calming down. He opened his bloodshot eyes and took out his phone to dial a number.

  "Hello, it's me. I'll be there in an hour. Also, I want to add something else... Yes, that's what I think, a person back from hell."
