Chapter 101: Punishment for Disobedience

After a long silence, Shen Chi looked at the pool table under the light and finally spoke.

"How is the investigation going on the matter I asked you to look into last time?"

Li Beiting was startled. That matter?

After pondering for a moment, he said, "I took down the dens of those few people, and even those who didn't cause trouble were sent to the police station. However, nobody knows who is behind the scenes. There's only one clue: the employer is a woman. They received orders to bring Xu Chaomu out of C City, and it would be best to find a remote forest to sell her off as a bride, so she can never escape."

Shen Chi's eyes grew sharp, immediately covered with a layer of darkness. He remained silent.

Li Beiting continued, "It seems like Xu Chaomu has run into human traffickers. Given how attractive she is, it's likely she was targeted long ago. However, they have shown some mercy, not going so far as to kill Chaomu."

"It's not that simple," Shen Chi said coldly.
