Chapter 400 - 356: Town Martial Department Enforcement, Brought to Justice (2)

Chapter 400: Chapter 356: Town Martial Department Enforcement, Brought to Justice (2)

At that moment, no one knew what he was thinking.

Then, Yang Biao came closer and patted Chu Zhengxiong on the shoulder.

He used his body to block Chu Zhengxiong’s line of sight.

Taking advantage of the moment, a few people from the Town Martial Department fitted a collar around Han Bin’s neck.

After lifting him off the ground, they walked toward the car.

Only after the man was put into the car did Yang Biao speak. "Old Chu, I know how you must be feeling right now."

"To be betrayed by a sworn brother... that feeling is worse than anything."

"But the main culprits aren’t them. It’s those people from Blood Handprint."

"You go back and get some rest. I’ll call you when there’s a mission."

"Old Mo, you take Captain Chu back first."

Hearing this, Mo Yanfeng nodded, grabbed Chu Zhengxiong, and started pulling him toward a jeep not far away.

They watched as the Town Martial Department vehicles drove away.

But the arrests weren’t over yet.

In a park, on a long bench.

Mo Ya was wearing a trench coat and sunglasses.

She also had on a woman’s hat.

The brim was pulled down low, obscuring half her face.

She looked a little anxious, raising her hand to check the time every now and then.

She also glanced around her surroundings.

It seemed she was waiting for someone... And just at that moment.

A woman sat down beside her and said with a light chuckle, "Captain Mo Ya, waiting for someone?"

Hearing this, Mo Ya shuddered and quickly turned to look.

"Meng Die?"

The look on Mo Ya’s face changed instantly, and she tried to flee.

But just then, one of Meng Die’s hands came to rest on Mo Ya’s shoulder.

"I’d advise you not to think about running, lest my hand slips and I hurt you."

"What happened with you and Han Bin has been exposed. Come back with me to the Town Martial Department for questioning. Otherwise... you’ll be killed on the spot!"

As she spoke, a flash of killing intent crossed Meng Die’s eyes.

Mo Ya’s expression changed, and she shot Meng Die a grave look.

She was well aware of Meng Die’s power level.

They had crossed paths a few times before.

At her level, she was no match for Meng Die at all.

’If I really try to run, Meng Die will kill me before I even leave this bench.’

In the end, she chose to give up, taking off her hat and sunglasses.

"Fine. I’ll go back with you."

The next moment, a few people from the Town Martial Department approached.

They put a collar on Mo Ya and led her directly to a car parked by the roadside.

In cities and provinces all across the New District, similar arrests were taking place.

Several other Demon Hunting Team captains were all apprehended.

「Later that afternoon, just after six o’clock.」

Meng Die and Yang Biao arrived at Old He’s office.

"Director He, we’ve arrested everyone from the Demon Hunting Bureau!"

At this, Old He nodded.

"Interrogate them through the night. I want all the information you can get on Blood Handprint!"

"Yes, sir!"

The two of them quickly exited.

Only then did Old He finally let out a long sigh of relief.

But he didn’t let his guard down. A sharp look flashed in his eyes.

’This game of chess with Blood Handprint has only just begun.’

’Especially with those men in black hiding among the populace; we haven’t eliminated all of them yet.’

’How could it possibly be over so quickly?’

’There’s still so much more to be done.’

Old He didn’t dare to get complacent.

Especially since the Restricted Area Battlefield had grown increasingly restless lately.

The emergence of great demons within the Restricted Area had become a threat to the New District.

Once those great demons made a move...

...no one would be able to stop them. The only person they could count on now was Lin Yi.

...

Jingzhao City.

In a bustling, lively night market.

Lin Yi was with his group—Qin Zhaoxue, Wei Nan, and Zhou Qi.

They were looking for all sorts of street food.

Unlike other cities, which had become desolate at night because of the incidents with the men in black...

...Jingzhao City was exceptionally lively, with crowds of people everywhere.

There were people everywhere, and cars zipped endlessly down the streets.

"Lin Yi, there’s grilled squid up ahead! Let’s get a few skewers and try some!" Wei Nan said to Lin Yi with a smile.

"Alright, let’s go check it out!"

Following the aroma, the group walked ahead.

Sure enough, there was a small grilled squid stall.

A lot of young people were gathered there.

Even Lin Yi couldn’t resist the smell of grilled squid.

He thought back to his time in the Old District.

Back then, if they wanted to eat a skewer of grilled squid, they had to hurry and buy a couple before it got dark.

Especially Lin Yi, who didn’t have much money in his pocket.

A single skewer of squid felt like eating the most delicious delicacy.

Even today, he could never forget that taste.

Wei Nan went right ahead and ordered a few skewers. The vendor smiled and nodded. "You got it! Just a minute, they’ll be ready soon!"

After speaking, he took a few more skewers of squid from under the grill and placed them on top to cook.

A short while later, Sun Tao, Zhou Qi, and Shen Mengyi also walked over.

Their hands were also full of various snacks.

Sun Tao and Shen Mengyi, in particular, had their mouths stuffed almost to bursting.

"Here, these beef balls are good..."

They handed some of their food to Lin Yi and Wei Nan.

Wei Nan said with a laugh, "I just ordered some grilled squid!"

"I figured you guys would end up here. I could smell it from a mile away!"

They talked and laughed while they waited off to the side.

Before long, the squid was ready.

After paying, Lin Yi, Qin Zhaoxue, Wei Nan, and the others all had their hands full of food.

They glanced around. "Let’s find a place to sit and eat. We have too much stuff!"

"Yeah, I remember there’s a place that sells clam noodle soup up ahead. We can order a bowl of that and sit down to eat!"

"Let’s go! I’m really craving some clam noodle soup!"

After exchanging a few more jokes, the group headed toward a large food stall up ahead.

It was a large, tented stall. The owner was at the front making the clam noodle soup.

Inside were rows of small, low tables.

The tables were almost all full, and just as Lin Yi’s group was peering inside...

...the owner looked up at them. "Here for noodles?"

"Yes. Are there any free tables?"

"Sure! I can even set up a temporary table for you. Xiaowu, come take them inside and set them up at a big table!"

"Okay!"

The person called Xiaowu didn’t look very old.

He was about seventeen or eighteen, around the same age as Lin Yi and his friends.

Xiaowu led Lin Yi’s group into the tent.

Although there were no empty tables, there was a large open space.

Xiaowu brought over a slightly larger low table, set it up, and then grabbed several small stools for them.

Then, he took out a small notepad and said with a smile, "What would you like to eat? Here’s a menu, take a look!"

He handed over a menu, and Lin Yi took a look first.

Besides the clam noodle soup, the place had a few other specialties.

They each ordered something, and Xiaowu nodded. "Alright, I’ll get this started right away. Please wait a moment!"

Xiaowu took the menu and walked over to the owner.

Wei Nan spread out the various snacks they had brought on the table.

They started eating without waiting for the clam noodle soup to be ready.
