The night was as dark as ink, and Park Bucheng's figure vanished into the shadows, leaving Li Zhenghao shivering in the alley, his eyes filled with terror.
"Park Bucheng, you madman!" Li Zhenghao gritted his teeth but dared not shout loudly, fearing that Kim Tae-wook might return.
He stumbled to his feet, brushed off the dust from his clothes, and pulled out his phone to dial a number. "Hello, it's me. Park Bucheng and Kim Tae-wook clashed; they were evenly matched with no clear victor... Yes, I saw it with my own eyes... Alright, I'll head over immediately."
After hanging up, a sinister smile crept across Li Zhenghao's face. "Park Bucheng, do you think that saving me will earn your gratitude? How naive!"
Meanwhile, Park Bucheng returned to the secret Gang Stronghold. Li Meili noticed his pale face and disheveled clothing and rushed over. "How did it go? Is Kim Tae-wook really as formidable as the rumors say?"
Park Bucheng took off his coat, revealing a shirt soaked in sweat, with a bruise on his chest. "That guy is tougher than he looks; my Six Meridians Divine Sword barely tickled him."
"What about you..."
"Don't worry," Park Bucheng smiled. "I still have trump cards up my sleeve. But now is not the time for that; the Lightning Plan is our top priority."
Just then, a rapid knocking sounded at the door. Li Meili instinctively drew her gun, but Park Bucheng gestured for her to relax and walked to the door. He peered through the peephole before opening it.
"Boss Park! Bad news!" A young man burst in, drenched in sweat and breathless. "The prosecutor's office and military have teamed up; they've simultaneously raided seventeen of our Gang Strongholds in Seoul within an hour! Over three hundred brothers have already been captured, and all our financial accounts are frozen!"
Park Bucheng's brow furrowed. "So soon?"
The young man nodded. "And their methods are extremely ruthless; even our connections within the government are useless now. It's as if everyone received a death order!"
After a moment of silence, Park Bucheng suddenly asked, "What about Li Zhenghao?"
"Boss Li's West District Headquarters was taken down. They say he managed to escape, but his whereabouts are unknown."
Park Bucheng and Li Meili exchanged a glance, a silent understanding passing between them—Li Zhenghao had just been pleading for help, and now he was nowhere to be found. There was something amiss.
"Activate the B Plan immediately," Park Bucheng ordered decisively. "Notify all core members to relocate according to the predetermined route. Also, release the 'special intelligence.'"
The young man took his leave, while Li Meili looked on with concern. "Park Boss, the prosecutor's office is coming on strong this time; it might be difficult to handle."
Park Bucheng scoffed lightly. "The more aggressive they are, the more it shows they're anxious. Anxious people make mistakes, and what we need to do is take advantage of those mistakes."
Meanwhile, at the Seoul Prosecutor's Office Special Operations Command Center.
Han Mi Na stood in front of a large electronic screen displaying a map of Seoul and the real-time locations of various action teams. A gleam of victory shone in her eyes. "Seventeen gang strongholds raided simultaneously, over three hundred gang members apprehended. This time, the Tai Chi Gang has nowhere to escape!"
Beside her, Zhao Yuhang frowned. "Meina, I can't shake the feeling that things are going too smoothly. Logically speaking, the Tai Chi Gang has been operating for years; it shouldn't be this easy to take them down."
Han Mi Na turned to look at him. "Are you suggesting that these gang strongholds are just decoys?"
Zhao Yuhang nodded. "It's very possible. We should focus on the places that weren't raided; perhaps that's where their real core lies."
After pondering for a moment, Han Mi Na picked up her radio. "All teams, stay alert; there may be traps. Repeat, all teams stay alert; there may be traps!"
No sooner had she finished speaking than a young prosecutor rushed in breathlessly. "Prosecutor Han! We've intercepted crucial intelligence! Park Bucheng and Li Zhenghao are meeting at a secret warehouse in East District to transfer important supplies!"
Han Mi Na's eyes lit up. "What's the specific location?"
"127 Jiangnan Avenue in East District, an abandoned textile factory."
Han Mi Na made an immediate decision. "Zhao Yuhang, take A Team and head there right away! We must capture Park Bucheng and Li Zhenghao alive!"
Zhao Yuhang hesitated for a moment. "Meina, this information comes too conveniently. Could it be..."
"We don't have time to think about that!" Han Mi Na interrupted him. "This is our best chance to wipe out the Tai Chi Gang!"
With no other choice, Zhao Yuhang accepted the order and left.
Meanwhile, Park Bucheng's secret Command Center had been relocated to an abandoned farm on the outskirts of Seoul. Several core members sat around a simple wooden table, their expressions serious.
"The information has been sent out," Li Meili reported. "The prosecutor's office should have dispatched people to the fake Gang Stronghold in the East District."
Park Bucheng nodded. "Good, now comes the critical second step. Jin Da Yong, how are preparations on your end?"
A burly man with thick eyebrows grinned widely. "Everything is arranged, Park Boss. As soon as the prosecutor's people arrive, we’ll give them a big surprise!"
Park Bucheng nodded in satisfaction and turned to another member. "Xiao Li, how's the fund transfer going?"
"80% complete; we just need to wait a few more hours for the rest."
"Make it quick," Park Bucheng urged. "Once the prosecutor's office realizes they've been duped, they will definitely tighten their monitoring of financial channels."
At that moment, Li Meili's phone rang. After answering, her expression changed dramatically. "Park Boss, there's been a problem! Li Zhenghao has been arrested!"
"What?" Park Bucheng jumped to his feet. "Where was he arrested?"
"On his way to Busan. They say he has already been taken back to Seoul for interrogation."
Park Bucheng's brow furrowed in anger. "That fool!" After a moment of contemplation, he suddenly asked, "Who captured him?"
"Prosecutor Zhao Yuhang."
A glint of interest flashed in Park Bucheng's eyes. "Zhao Yuhang? That remarkable kid?" A cold smirk crept across his lips. "Interesting. It seems we need to adjust our plans a bit."
Meanwhile, in the interrogation room of the Seoul Prosecutor's Office.
Li Zhenghao was handcuffed to the interrogation chair, facing Zhao Yuhang as they stared each other down.
"Li Zhenghao, you better come clean. Where is Park Bucheng right now?" Zhao Yuhang asked coldly.
Li Zhenghao let out a bitter laugh. "If I knew that, I wouldn't have been caught by you."
Zhao Yuhang slammed his fist on the table. "Don't play games with me! You're a High-Level member of the Tai Chi Gang; how could you not know Park Bucheng's whereabouts?"
Li Zhenghao shook his head. "You're too naive. Park Bucheng doesn't trust anyone at all; even I, this so-called 'High-Level,' am just a pawn in his game."
Zhao Yuhang sneered. "Fine, since you're not cooperating, we'll have to use other methods."
Suddenly, Li Zhenghao looked up, a glint of cunning in his eyes. "Actually... I can tell you a secret about Park Bucheng's true identity."
Zhao Yuhang became alert. "What secret?"
Li Zhenghao smiled mysteriously. "Park Bucheng is not an ordinary person; he..."
Just then, the door to the interrogation room was pushed open, and Han Mi Na walked in. "Zhao Yuhang, there's an emergency; something went wrong with the operation in East District!"
Zhao Yuhang frowned. "What kind of problem?"
"Our team just arrived at the target location and was ambushed! More than a dozen members are already injured!"
Zhao Yuhang's face changed dramatically. "What? I knew it was a trap!"
Han Mi Na gritted her teeth. "Park Bucheng is too cunning; he deliberately released false information to lure us in!"
Zhao Yuhang immediately stood up. "I'll take people to reinforce them right away!"
Han Mi Na stopped him. "No, you stay here to interrogate Li Zhenghao. I'll handle this personally."
Zhao Yuhang hesitated for a moment but nodded. "Be careful, Meina."
After Han Mi Na left, Zhao Yuhang turned to Li Zhenghao. "Continue speaking; who exactly is Park Bucheng?"
But Li Zhenghao suddenly fell silent, a strange light flickering in his eyes.
Meanwhile, inside the abandoned textile factory in the East District, the Special Operations Team from the prosecutor's office was engaged in a fierce battle.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!" Gunfire echoed as bullets traced fiery lines through the darkness.
"Damn it! This is a trap!" the Team Leader shouted. "Everyone take cover and prepare to retreat!"
At that moment, a shadow descended from above—it was Han Mi Na. Agile and swift, she rolled to evade the incoming bullets and quickly found cover.
"What's the situation?" she asked.
The Team Leader shook his head. "It's bad; they seem to have been prepared for us. We were ambushed as soon as we entered."
Han Mi Na looked around and suddenly noticed something. "Wait, the shooting angles and frequency of those people... there's something off!"
After observing for a moment, her expression changed dramatically. "These aren't real people! It's an Automatic Shooting Device!"
The Team Leader was taken aback. "What?"
Han Mi Na immediately grabbed the radio. "Everyone, pay attention! This is a decoy! Repeat, this is a decoy! The enemy is using an Automatic Shooting Device to confuse us!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the doors of the Abandoned Textile Factory were suddenly locked from the outside, followed by a wave of acrid odor filling the air.
"Poison gas!" Han Mi Na exclaimed in shock. "Everyone put on your Gas Masks!"
However, it was too late; most of the team members didn't have time to put on their masks and collapsed one after another. Although Han Mi Na managed to put hers on in time, she still felt dizzy and disoriented.
"Retreat... retreat..." she struggled to say, but her legs no longer obeyed her commands, and she eventually fell to the ground.
In the last moment before losing consciousness, she saw a familiar figure walk in—it was Jin Da Yong.
"Mission accomplished," Jin Da Yong said into the communicator. "Han Mi Na has been secured."
On the other end of the communicator, Park Bucheng's voice came through. "Good. Proceed as planned. Remember, do not harm her; we need her alive."
Meanwhile, in the prosecutor's interrogation room.
Zhao Yuhang was continuing his questioning of Li Zhenghao when suddenly his communicator rang.
"Zhao Yuhang, this is Prosecutor Choi. There's been a problem with the Eastern District Operation; Han Mi Na and her team are missing. You need to head out for support immediately!"
Zhao Yuhang's expression changed dramatically. "Yes! I'll leave immediately!"
He hurried out of the interrogation room, leaving Li Zhenghao alone.
Li Zhenghao glanced around, confirming there were no cameras, and a strange smile crept onto his lips. He retrieved a small metallic object from deep within his mouth and easily unlocked the handcuffs.
"Park Boss's plan is indeed flawless," he muttered to himself. "Now, it's time to execute the final step."
He quietly opened the door to the interrogation room and found the corridor empty. Seizing the opportunity, he swiftly made his way toward the prosecutor's office archive.
Meanwhile, Zhao Yuhang led a team of elite officers toward the East District. However, when they arrived at the Abandoned Textile Factory, they found the doors wide open and the place deserted, with only a few Automatic Shooting Devices and some empty gas canisters left behind.
"Damn it! We've been tricked again!" Zhao Yuhang fumed. "Contact headquarters immediately and inquire about Han Mi Na's whereabouts!"
One of the team members pulled out a communicator but discovered that the signal was jammed. "Commander, we can't reach headquarters!"
Zhao Yuhang's heart sank. "This is bad; Park Bucheng's target might be the prosecutor's headquarters! Return at once!"
However, when they rushed back to the prosecutor's office, chaos reigned. Alarms blared throughout the building as prosecutors and staff ran in panic.
"What happened?" Zhao Yuhang stopped a prosecutor to ask.
"Someone... someone has breached our core database! All information regarding the Tai Chi Gang has been deleted!"
Zhao Yuhang's face turned ashen. "Where is Li Zhenghao?"
"I don't know; the interrogation room is empty, and there was no one guarding him!"
Zhao Yuhang slammed his fist against the wall. "Damn Park Bucheng! This is all his plan!"
Meanwhile, at an abandoned farm on the outskirts of Seoul, Park Bucheng was examining a laptop, its screen filled with streams of data. Li Meili stood beside him, her expression tense.
"Did it succeed?" she asked.
Park Bucheng nodded, a satisfied smile spreading across his face. "Perfect execution. The prosecutor's database has been wiped clean; all information regarding the Tai Chi Gang has been deleted. At the same time, we've implanted some 'special' data that will keep them busy for a while."
Just then, Jin Da Yong entered with several subordinates, dragging in the bound Han Mi Na.
"Park Bucheng!" Han Mi Na shouted upon seeing him, her eyes filled with rage. "You despicable bastard!"
Park Bucheng chuckled and gestured for his men to loosen her restraints. "Prosecutor Han, there's no need to be so angry. I invited you here just to talk."
Han Mi Na rubbed her wrists and eyed him warily. "Talk about what?"
He handed her a glass of water. "Let's discuss the true purpose of your 'Lightning Plan.'"
Han Mi Na paused, confused. "What do you mean?"
Park Bucheng's gaze sharpened. "Prosecutor Han, do you really think this operation is solely aimed at the Tai Chi Gang? Have you considered why suddenly the military, chaebols, and the prosecutor's office have joined forces to eliminate us?"
She fell silent, a flicker of doubt crossing her eyes.
Park Bucheng continued, "Because someone does not want Taiji Nation to become truly powerful. Someone wants Taiji Nation to remain a vassal of America forever. And the Tai Chi Gang just happens to hold some secrets they don't want exposed."
Han Mi Na frowned. "What secret?"
Park Bucheng did not answer directly but asked, "Do you know who Kim Tae-wook is?"
Han Mi Na shook her head.
"He is a Clone secretly cultivated by JK Group, and he looks remarkably like me," Park Bucheng said, his tone growing serious. "And JK Group is the agent of America in Taiji Nation."
Han Mi Na looked at him in shock. "You mean..."
"That's right," Park Bucheng nodded. "This 'Lightning Plan' is ostensibly aimed at Tai Chi Gang, but in reality, it is a cleansing operation by the American National Forces against the local powers of Taiji Nation. And you, Prosecutor Han, are merely a pawn in their game."
Han Mi Na fell into deep thought, seemingly processing this astonishing information.
"I know you are an upright person, Prosecutor Han," Park Bucheng continued. "You joined the prosecution to uphold justice and combat crime. But have you ever considered that if the entire judicial system is controlled by foreign forces, does your sense of justice still hold any meaning?"
Han Mi Na looked up at him, her initial anger gradually replaced by confusion. "Do you have evidence?"
Park Bucheng smiled slightly and took out a USB drive. "Here is everything you need: the secret agreements between JK Group and the American government, evidence of how they manipulate the Taiji Nation government, and... the true identity of Kim Tae-wook."
Han Mi Na hesitated for a moment but ultimately took the USB drive. "If what you say is true, I will investigate thoroughly. But if you are lying..."
"I know," Park Bucheng nodded. "You will stop at nothing to capture me. But I believe that a true seeker of justice will not turn a blind eye to the truth."
Han Mi Na gave him a long look and said nothing further.
Park Bucheng gestured to his men. "Take Prosecutor Han back. Remember, do not harm her."
A few subordinates received their orders and left the farm with Han Mi Na.
Li Meili walked over to Park Bucheng and asked, "Park Boss, do you really believe she will help us?"
Park Bucheng shook his head. "I don't need her help; I just need her to doubt the system she is loyal to. Once the seed of doubt is planted, the truth will reveal itself."
Meanwhile, at the headquarters of the Seoul Prosecutor's Office.
Zhao Yuhang was reporting to Prosecutor Choi. "Chief Prosecutor Zhao, this operation has completely failed. Not only did we fail to capture Park Bucheng, but our database was also hacked, and Han Mi Na has gone missing."
Prosecutor Choi's expression darkened. "Han Mi Na is missing?"
"Yes, we lost contact with her during our operation in the East District."
Prosecutor Choi pondered for a moment before suddenly asking, "Zhao Yuhang, how much do you know about Han Mi Na?"
Zhao Yuhang was taken aback. "What do you mean?"
Prosecutor Choi did not answer directly but said, "From now on, you are in charge of the 'Lightning Plan.' As for Han Mi Na... if she returns, report to me immediately."
Though puzzled, Zhao Yuhang nodded. "Yes, Chief Prosecutor Zhao."
After leaving Prosecutor Choi's office, Zhao Yuhang was filled with unease. He felt that there was a larger secret hidden behind this operation and that Han Mi Na's disappearance might just be the tip of the iceberg.
As he pondered this, a prosecutor rushed in. "Prosecutor Zhao! Prosecutor Han has returned!"
Zhao Yuhang's heart leaped with joy. "Where is she?"
"In her office, but she looked... strange."
Zhao Yuhang didn't think much and hurried to Han Mi Na's office. Pushing the door open, he saw Han Mi Na sitting in front of her computer, intently focused on something.
"Meina! Are you okay? We've been so worried!" Zhao Yuhang asked with concern.
Han Mi Na glanced up at him, her expression complex. "Yuhang, do you believe that everything we are doing is right?"
Zhao Yuhang was taken aback. "What do you mean?"
Han Mi Na didn't answer but instead asked, "Did Prosecutor Choi give you full responsibility for the 'Lightning Plan'?"
Zhao Yuhang nodded. "Yes, he's very worried about you."
Han Mi Na scoffed. "Worried? He's just afraid I might discover the truth."
Zhao Yuhang grew more confused. "Meina, what’s wrong? What did Park Bucheng do to you?"
Han Mi Na looked at him deeply. "Park Bucheng didn't harm me; on the contrary, he provided me with some... very valuable information."
She stood up and plugged a USB drive into the computer. "Yuhang, take a look at this and then tell me who we are really fighting for."
Zhao Yuhang walked over to the computer, and when he saw the content on the screen, his face turned pale. "This... this can't be!"
Han Mi Na's expression was serious. "I wish this were just a lie, but I've verified it; it's all true. JK Group is indeed an agent of America in Taiji Nation, and the 'Lightning Plan' has never been just aimed at the Tai Chi Gang from the beginning."
Zhao Yuhang shook his head in disbelief. "What should we do now?"
Han Mi Na's gaze became resolute. "Continue the investigation and find more evidence. Then... we will bring the truth to light."
At that moment, the office door was suddenly pushed open, and Prosecutor Choi entered with several armed guards.
"Han Mi Na, Zhao Yuhang, what are you looking at?" Prosecutor Choi's tone was calm, but a dangerous glint flickered in his eyes.
Han Mi Na and Zhao Yuhang exchanged a glance, both sensing the tension in each other's eyes.
"Nothing, Chief Prosecutor Zhao," Han Mi Na forced herself to remain composed. "We were just analyzing the reasons for this operation's failure."
Prosecutor Choi approached the computer, glanced at the screen, and his expression instantly turned grim. "How much do you know?"
Han Mi Na scoffed. "Enough, Chief Prosecutor Zhao. Or should I say, America's lapdog!"
Prosecutor Choi's anger turned to a mocking smile. "Han Mi Na, you have disappointed me greatly. I thought you were smart enough to know what to look at and what to ignore."
He turned to the armed guards. "Take them away and charge them with treason!"
Zhao Yuhang immediately drew his sidearm. "Chief Prosecutor Zhao, you're committing a crime!"
Prosecutor Choi remained unfazed. "In Taiji Nation, I decide what is a crime and what is not."
Just as the armed guards prepared to act, the office window suddenly shattered, and a shadow darted in like lightning!
"Park Bucheng!" Han Mi Na exclaimed.
Park Bucheng moved like a flash, using the Six Meridians Divine Sword technique to strike at the nearest armed guard. The man hadn’t even had time to react before he collapsed to the ground, unable to move.
"You two, come with me!" Park Bucheng shouted as he fought.
Seeing this, Prosecutor Choi drew his gun and aimed it at Park Bucheng. "Park Bucheng, you won't leave here alive today!"
Park Bucheng sneered, his figure flashing as he executed the Graceful Wave Steps to perfection, instantly appearing in front of Prosecutor Choi. "Is that so? Then let's see you try!"
Prosecutor Choi hurriedly pulled the trigger, but Park Bucheng had already anticipated his move, easily dodging the bullet and striking him in the chest. "Dragon Subduing Eighteen Palms, Kang Long You Hui!"
Bang! Prosecutor Choi flew back several meters like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily against the wall and spitting out blood.
"Go!" Park Bucheng grabbed Han Mi Na and Zhao Yuhang, and the three of them jumped out of the window together.
Just as they left, the office door was slammed open again, and Kim Tae-wook rushed in with a team of armed personnel.
"Park Bucheng!" Kim Tae-wook's eyes flashed with a hint of murderous intent as he saw the three escaping out the window. "This time, you can't get away!"
He turned to Prosecutor Choi. "Chief Prosecutor Zhao, are you alright?"
Prosecutor Choi struggled to stand up, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth. "Chase them! We must catch them!"
Kim Tae-wook nodded and leaped out to pursue them.
Meanwhile, Park Bucheng was sprinting through the streets of Seoul with Han Mi Na and Zhao Yuhang, with Kim Tae-wook leading the chase behind them.
"Park Bucheng, why did you save us?" Han Mi Na asked as they ran.
Park Bucheng did not look back. "Because you saw the truth, and the truth is what they fear most."
Zhao Yuhang suddenly stopped, saying, "Wait, we can't just run away! We need evidence, we need to expose the truth to the public!"
Park Bucheng also halted, looking at Zhao Yuhang. "What do you have in mind?"
A determined light flickered in Zhao Yuhang's eyes. "I have a plan, but I need your help."
Park Bucheng glanced back at the approaching pursuers and then at Zhao Yuhang's resolute expression. Finally, he nodded. "Go ahead, I'm listening."
Just as the three were hatching their plan, Kim Tae-wook's figure appeared on a nearby rooftop, his cold gaze locked onto them.
"Park Bucheng, this time you can't escape!" Kim Tae-wook muttered to himself before leaping down towards the three.
A more intense confrontation was about to begin.
