The capture of Li Wenxuan seemed to drape a thin veil of resolution over this intricate and perplexing case, but the seasoned and meticulous Ye Qiu, along with the clever and insightful Su Mu, understood clearly that the matter was far from over.
The true threat lurked like a ghost hidden in the dark night, still concealed in the unfathomable shadows, waiting for the right moment to strike.
And that elusive figure, whose presence was as fleeting as a dragon's sighting, along with the enigmatic Xuanming Sect behind him, undoubtedly became their next formidable adversary.
"There is no doubt that this mysterious figure, who appears and disappears at will, is intricately connected to the Xuanming Sect," Su Mu said gravely, his eyes glinting with sharpness as if he could see through all truths hidden beneath the surface. "Li Wenxuan is merely a pawn, easily manipulated. The true intentions of the Xuanming Sect surely extend far beyond simply eliminating one person."
Ye Qiu nodded slightly in agreement with Su Mu's assessment and added, "I share your sentiments. It is well known that the Xuanming Sect has long coveted the bustling city of Jianghai. One can only imagine that they are secretly plotting some unspeakable grand conspiracy. We must act swiftly to uncover their true motives and find ways to thwart them before disaster strikes."
Upon hearing their analysis, Captain Zhao felt a tightening in his chest; he recognized the gravity of the situation and its severe implications.
Without hesitation, he quickly organized all the intelligence and relevant information into a detailed report and promptly submitted it to higher authorities while urgently requesting additional support.
After receiving this weighty report, the higher-ups also realized the seriousness and urgency of the situation. Without delay, they decided to dispatch a well-trained and well-equipped elite investigation team from elsewhere to Jianghai City to assist local police in conducting a thorough investigation.
The investigation team was led by an exceptionally experienced and renowned criminal investigation expert.
This expert not only possessed a wealth of professional knowledge but also had a remarkable track record of successfully solving major cases.
Accompanying him were a series of state-of-the-art investigative equipment and cutting-edge techniques.
They bore a heavy responsibility on this mission, eagerly anticipating the opportunity to swiftly uncover any traces of the Xuanming Sect.
Ye Qiu and Su Mu resolutely joined the challenging investigation team.
The group sat together, fully focused on analyzing the current perplexing case and brainstorming strategies to tackle it.
"The clues we have are far too scarce. If we want to make a breakthrough, we might have to start with Li Wenxuan and Uncle Wang," Ye Qiu said, her expression serious.
After a brief pause, she continued, "Although Li Wenxuan hasn't revealed the true identity of that mysterious figure, I believe he knows quite a bit about them. Therefore, we should consider conducting an in-depth psychological counseling session with him, or perhaps employ some unique and effective interrogation techniques to force him to disclose the truth."
Captain Zhao nodded slightly in agreement with Ye Qiu's assessment and decisively ordered, "Alright! I'll arrange for capable personnel to conduct a thorough interrogation of Li Wenxuan immediately."
At that moment, Su Mu, who had been silent until now, suddenly spoke up. "During my ongoing close surveillance over the past few days, I've noticed that Uncle Wang's behavior has been quite strange lately. He frequently receives mysterious phone calls from unknown sources, and after each call, he deliberately avoids other people around him. There’s definitely something suspicious here!"
"Uncle Wang is definitely hiding something!" Su Mu said gravely to Ye Qiu beside him. "I suspect he may be secretly colluding with the notorious Xuanming Sect."
Determined to uncover the hidden truth, Su Mu decided to take a risk—he would follow Uncle Wang.
From that day on, whenever Uncle Wang left his house, Su Mu would carefully and quietly trail behind him, paying close attention to every move he made.
One night, under a dark sky with a strong wind blowing, Uncle Wang stepped out of Baicao Hall as usual.
However, this time he walked alone toward a remote and desolate park.
Upon entering the park, Uncle Wang did not proceed directly but instead walked slowly, glancing around anxiously as if waiting for an important figure to appear.
Hidden in the darkness, Su Mu held his breath, intently watching Uncle Wang's figure, not daring to make a sound.
As time passed slowly, finally, after a long wait, a mysterious figure wrapped tightly in layers of clothing and wearing a mask slowly appeared before Uncle Wang.
The mysterious person's voice was hoarse and unpleasant, as if it had been scorched by fire. "How is the situation progressing?" In response to the inquiry, Uncle Wang quickly lowered his voice and replied, "Reporting to you, everything is proceeding smoothly according to the original plan. Li Wenxuan is already in our hands, and our people have not revealed their identities."
Hearing Uncle Wang's report, the mysterious figure nodded slightly, clearly satisfied. "Good. Then let us proceed with the next steps of the plan steadily." After saying this, the mysterious person exchanged a few more words with Uncle Wang before they both turned and disappeared into the vast night.
"Understood," Uncle Wang replied respectfully, his voice deep and steady.
Standing nearby, Su Mu silently listened to their conversation, but inside, he felt as if a storm had erupted, shaken to his core.
After observing and tracking for some time, he could now confirm with absolute certainty that this seemingly honest and harmless Uncle Wang was indeed a member of the dreaded Xuanming Sect!
With this realization, a surge of intense anger and a sense of justice welled up within Su Mu.
As he saw Uncle Wang about to leave with the mysterious person, he could no longer suppress his impulse. Without hesitation, he stepped forward, intending to capture these two villains.
However, just as he took that step, a sudden rush of footsteps echoed around him. In an instant, numerous shadowy figures surged from all directions like phantoms, surrounding Su Mu tightly.
"Who are you? How dare you boldly follow us!" one of the black-clad figures shouted angrily, eyes wide with fury.
Su Mu's expression changed drastically upon seeing this; he knew that his actions had been exposed and that the situation had turned extremely unfavorable.
Despite this, he maintained a facade of calm, responding with a face as cold as water, "Hmph, since you’ve discovered me, there’s nothing left to hide. I am the officer in charge of investigating this case, and today I will ensure that you criminals are brought to justice!"
"Hahahaha..." Upon hearing Su Mu's words, the mysterious figure lurking in the shadows suddenly erupted into a chilling laugh, as if they had just heard the greatest joke in the world.
"How utterly ridiculous! You think you can stand against us, the Xuanming Sect, all by yourself? Let me tell you the truth: we already knew that your police would send someone to investigate. That’s why we set this elaborate trap for you, waiting for you to willingly walk into our carefully designed snare. So, how does it feel now? Regretful, I presume?"
Faced with the enemy's mockery and threats, Su Mu showed no signs of retreat.
He clenched his teeth, his gaze resolute as he scanned his surroundings, silently contemplating an escape plan.
At that moment, he was acutely aware that he was trapped in a perilous situation. If he couldn’t devise a way out, the consequences would be dire.
He had to escape quickly to relay this information to Ye Qiu and Captain Zhao.
However, the men in black had completely surrounded him, leaving him with no way out.
A fierce battle was about to erupt.
And the Xuanming Sect lurking in the shadows revealed their sinister faces.
Jianghai City was on the brink of a massive storm.
