30 Chapter 30: Good Person and the Mysterious Organization

Translator: 549690339

Li Chenghu pulled two A4 papers from the table and handed them to Xu Rou.

Xu Rou took the A4 papers and began reading the content on them.

These were two profiles.

The photo on the first one was of a middle-aged man with a stubble beard and a somewhat unkempt appearance.

His eyes were fierce, and there was a scar at the corner of his eye, making his two eyes appear slightly misaligned.

This was Zhao Hui, the murderer in the construction site case. He killed eight people at the site and killed four policemen in the process of fleeing afterward.

The person in the second photo looked much more refined than Zhao Hui.

It was a clean-faced young man with slicked-back hair and a gentle smile on his face.

Just by looking at his image, it was hard to associate the words "wanted criminal" with him.

Xu Rou looked at his profile.

This man was named Shen Ziming and had been involved in a bar fight that resulted in the deaths of seven people and serious injuries to more than a dozen others before fleeing the scene.

"These are our team's main targets right now."

Li Chenghu's voice timely rang.

"Zhao Hui, according to our analysis, is roughly equivalent to a Fourth-order martial artist and extremely dangerous."

"Shen Ziming is weaker, about equivalent to a Seventh-order martial artist."

"The last known locations of both of them were in Jincheng District."

"But after Shen Ziming entered Jincheng District, he completely vanished from our sight."

"So right now, all we've got are the traces of Zhao Hui."

Hearing this,

"Captain Li, are we going to arrest Zhao Hui first?"

Xu Rou immediately asked.

She stared at Zhao Hui's personal information in her hand,

The fingers holding the A4 paper began to tremble slightly.

Fourth-order Martial Artist,

This was an existence she had never encountered before.

Just thinking about the fact that she could soon be face-to-face with such a ferocious and terrifyingly powerful enemy.

This was....such an exhilarating thought.

A pair of eyes deep inside, gradually lit up with excitement.

"No."

However,

Li Chenghu shook his head directly.

Confronting Xu Rou's puzzled eyes,

He took several more documents from the table and handed them over.

They included bank statements, interrogation records, and photos taken by Wu'an Bureau personnel during the investigation.

"According to the ongoing investigation, Zhao Hui seemed to have connections with a mysterious organization before and after the crime occurred."

"Similarly, Shen Ziming also had connections with the organization a few days before the bar fight."

"Moreover, we've encountered unidentifiable people obstructing us during our previous numerous arrest operations."

"All of that implies that there's a mysterious organization operating in the shadows, carrying out some illegal activities we don't know about."

"And we know nothing about this organization's specific details."

"Catching Zhao Hui alone is far from enough."

Hearing this,

Xu Rou immediately understood Li Chenghu's intention to go fishing for big fishes.

But she still hesitated a bit.

"But what if Zhao Hui injures others while we're monitoring his actions? What should we do?"

As for Xu Rou's question, Li Chenghu seemed to have anticipated it.

"Then we'll have no choice but to arrest him directly."

He looked at Xu Rou, his face gradually becoming serious.

"Our Wu'an Bureau's top priority is not just to successfully catch criminals."

"It's to protect our own personal safety as well as that of the citizens. Everything else is less important than that."

"No matter when and where, and what mission is being executed, this is the most important rule, and you must never forget it."

Listening to these words,

Xu Rou also became serious.

She nodded her head heavily.

"Understood, Captain Li."

"So what now?"

Li Chenghu waved his hand.

"Go find Xiao Jiang, he should be in the monitoring room right now."

"You'll be working with him on this investigation for the next few days."

"Understood!" Xu Rou saluted again and put the files back on the office desk.

Then,

She turned around and prepared to leave.

As she reached the door,

"Oh, Captain Li,"

Xu Rou seemed to suddenly remember something and looked back at Li Chenghu.

"Can we learn martial arts for free in our team?"

Hearing this,

Li Chenghu looked at her in surprise.

"Why do you ask that?"

He remembered that Xu Rou had been learning Taekwondo, and she was already at the level of a black belt eighth dan.

"Just asking."

"Martial arts seem pretty powerful."

As she spoke,

A scene flashed through Xu Rou's mind - it was Chen Sheng punching the robbers and the image of his body billowing with white qi.

"The Wu'an Bureau has collected numerous written and video materials on various martial arts styles, and you can consult them at your disposal."

Although he didn't know why Xu Rou suddenly became interested in martial arts,

Li Chenghu still answered reflexively.

"Captain Li, I want to ask, which martial arts style does this move belong to?"

Xu Rou recalled Chen Sheng's movements, imitating the Bashing Fist position.

Although full of errors,

Li Chenghu, who had been exposed to Xingyi Fist since childhood, still recognized it at a glance.

"This is the Bashing Fist from the Five Elements Fist of Xingyi Fist."

"How do you know?"

He looked at Xu Rou with curiosity.

"I've seen someone use this move before, and it looked amazing, so I wanted to learn it."

Having said that,

Xu Rou suddenly couldn't hold back her excitement.

"Captain Li, I will leave first."

"Remember to report first."

"Understood!"

With a soft sound, the office became quiet again.

Li Chenghu sat back in his chair with his eyes closed, seemingly contemplating something.

Xu Rou's words just now had given him inspiration.

Due to the decline of martial arts before the Tide Rising Period arrived,

most of the personnel in the Wu'an Bureau now were studying foreign styles such as Taekwondo, boxing, and fighting techniques, which could quickly enhance their combat power in a short time.

However, in the long run, martial arts are much more beneficial to Qi-sensors, whether in terms of physical fitness or overall combat power.

It's just that,

martial arts are difficult to master quickly,

and those with mediocre talent may practice hard for several years and still not be as good as a prodigy who has trained for just one month.

This has also led to a lack of practitioners in the Wu'an Bureau, despite the abundance of martial arts materials available.

Li Chenghu couldn't force his subordinates to learn martial arts,

after all, he himself learned boxing.

But if he could invite martial artists to give demonstrations in the team, maybe many people would become interested in martial arts like Xu Rou.

"If only everyone had Chen Sheng's talent."

Opening his eyes, Li Chenghu gazed at the ceiling, couldn't help but think of his apprentice.

"I'll visit him at the Martial Arts Hall tomorrow."

"By the way, I'll ask the old man if he can send someone to give a demonstration."

Afternoon.

Wutong Village.

Chen Sheng stood downstairs of his home, preparing to open the door.

"Teacher, give me one more, please!"

"Teacher, I want one too!"

"Alright, alright, you'll get one after you finish the exercises."

But the noise close by caught his attention.

Chen Sheng looked in the direction of the sound.

The noise was coming from Xu Ziwen's house.

Through the window, he saw Xu Ziwen standing helplessly in the small wooden room.

Next to him was a whiteboard covered with densely written words.

In front of him was a wooden table.

A group of children eagerly stared at the chocolate on the table.

Ferrero!

Chen Sheng's gaze was also attracted by the chocolate.

He rarely ate snacks,

but Ferrero was an exception.

This chocolate was one of his favorite snacks when he was a kid.

The rich chocolate filling, combined with the aroma of hazelnuts, had always fascinated the young Chen Sheng.

At this moment,

Just as Xu Ziwen was about to continue his lecture, he suddenly noticed Chen Sheng standing outside.

"Brother Chen, wait a moment."

He called out to Chen Sheng.

After about ten seconds, Xu Ziwen came out of the house.

He was holding a red bag in his hand.

"I bought some snacks at the supermarket today. You can take some home to eat."

Having said that, Xu Ziwen smiled and handed the bag to Chen Sheng.

"No, no, Teacher Xu, you are too kind."

Although Chen Sheng said he didn't want it, when he saw the golden-wrapped chocolates in the bag, his body instinctively accepted it.

"Who are those kids?"

After exchanging pleasantries, Chen Sheng looked towards the house.

"They are children from poor families. They usually struggle to keep up with school, and their parents can't afford to send them to tutoring."

"Since I have time at home during the day, I let them come over for tutoring after school."

"These snacks are meant to be shared with them, and to help motivate their learning."

So dazzling!

In Chen Sheng's eyes,

there seemed to be a Buddha's light shining from the back of Xu Ziwen's head.

The light was incredibly dazzling, making him squint his eyes involuntarily.

"Brother Chen, have some now. If you like it, there's more at my place."

"I have to get back to tutoring the kids."

Having said that,

without waiting for Chen Sheng's response, Xu Ziwen quickly ran back into the house to stop the children who were about to sneak some chocolate.

"What a good person."

Chen Sheng sighed and went back home with the bag.
