“These local police seem quite shady!”

-We’re all cops, and yet they’re using listening devices.”

-They intentionally got me drunk at the dinner and tried to extract information

from me…”

“Hmm, something doesn’t seem right about this.”

Zhou Qiang rubbed his head as he stood up.

-If it weren’t for my tolerance for alcohol, the amount they made us drink at the table could have landed us in real trouble!”

Hearing this, Su Xuan nodded in agreement.

“The situation is getting dangerous.”

“But these people are indeed police officers…

-We just don’t know why they drugged us or the reasons behind their actions.”

“They even bugged our rooms…”

He looked at the listening devices that had been removed but were still functioning and continued typing on his phone: “Be careful.”

“Alright, alright. If things don’t work out, let’s get some rest for now. We can discuss it tomorrow.”

“I really had too much to drink today.”

“The alcohol here is nothing like what we have back home.

“If it weren’t for my high alcohol tolerance, I’d be in real trouble right now.” Zhou Qiang waved his hand, no longer mentioning the need to freshen up, and simply lay back down on the bed.

Seeing this scene, Su Xuan glanced at the listening devices and placed them back in their original positions. Then he freshened up and went to sleep. But before falling asleep, Su Xuan had a feeling that this business trip might not be as simple as it seemed.

As it turned out, his suspicion was correct. Early the next morning, two officers from the local Hai Cheng police station arrived at their hotel. One of them was none other than one of the men who had joined them for drinks the previous day: Ma Zhiyuan and Luo Xiang.

“Officer Su, Officer Zhou,” Ma Zhiyuan greeted them. “Since you need to investigate the case, you can go directly to our station. If there’s anything we can assist with, feel free to let us know. After all, the information our local police have gathered is often more detailed than what you can find.” Ma Zhiyuan spoke as they blocked Su Xuan and Zhou Qiang’s way. At that moment, Su Xuan and Zhou Qiang were just about to leave their room.

“We don’t need that,” Zhou Qiang said with a smile, immediately declining

their offer.

At the same time, his tone became more serious.

“In fact, the reason we came here this time is to conduct a thorough investigation,” Zhou Qiang explained. “Compared to visiting tourist attractions, we prefer to do our own investigation. So, please go about your own business.

-If we need assistance, we will request help from the Hai Cheng police station,” Su Xuan added. “But for now, we believe it’s best for us to act independently.” Zhou Qiang’s words surprised the two officers in front of him. After all, based on their assumptions, even with their presence here today, Zhou Qiang wouldn’t have refused their help. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have been able to get him drunk last night.

But in just one night, his attitude had changed so quickly.

“Officer Zhou, what are you saying?” Ma Zhiyuan smiled and took a step closer to them “We’re all comrades in uniform here. If you need anything, just ask. Our officers at the station will cooperate with your actions. If you want to handle things on your own now, we’ll head back to avoid disturbing your undercover investigation.”

With that, he patted Zhou Qiang’s shoulder and without waiting for a response, they turned and left.

Zhou Qiang watched as the two officers left the hotel lobby and furrowed his brow. He then turned to make eye contact with Su Xuan, who also had a serious expression.

At this moment, neither of them could quite grasp the intentions of those officers. From being intercepted upon their arrival to the attempts at extracting information over drinks, and now the discovery of listening devices in the hotel room, it was becoming increasingly clear that they were being closely monitored.

Even though the two officers had left, they still felt the weight of surveillance on their shoulders. Su Xuan’s body tensed up, signaling that they were still under someone else’s watchful eyes.

-Su Xuan, we…” Zhou Qiang began to speak, but he was immediately interrupted as Su Xuan grabbed his arm and pulled him aside.

Zhou Qiang closed his mouth, looking puzzled. Su Xuan extended his hand and patted Zhou Qiang’s shoulder, removing a hidden tracking device that had been attached to him.

“Damn!” Zhou Qiang exclaimed in frustration.

Seeing the tracking device, Zhou Qiang broke into a cold sweat. They had checked their belongings and themselves thoroughly before leaving. So, the tracking device must have been planted after they exited the room. There was only one person who could have done it – Ma Zhiyuan.

-Damn!” Zhou Qiang gasped when he realized this. He thought back to Ma Zhiyuan patting his shoulder before leaving – it could only have been him.

-Whoa!” Realizing this, Zhou Qiang shuddered with a sudden chill. He followed Su Xuan, weaving through a park. The park was filled with elderly people exercising and children playing, providing the perfect cover for their conversation amidst the noisy surroundings.

They lowered their heads and covered half of their mouths with their clothes to avoid being overheard.

“It’s a tracking device!”

“What are they up to?”

“SU Xuan, this doesn’t make sense. How did they discover our whereabouts?” -Ma Zhiyuan’s appearance at the high-speed rail station yesterday was already suspicious.”

-While it’s possible they were trying to engage us in conversation during the dinner, the listening devices in the hotel room are highly suspicious.”

“And today…”

“Is he even a real cop?” Zhou Qiang finally exclaimed, and Su Xuan fell silent for a couple of seconds.

His mind raced as he reviewed the sequence of events since their arrival

yesterday.

“What if… they are not real cops?” Su Xuan pondered aloud.

Zhou Qiang raised an eyebrow in confusion.

“No, SuXuan…”

“I was just venting, but we’ve seen their police badges…”

“These can’t be faked…”

“It can’t be fake, right?”

As the questions filled the air, Su Xuan closed his eyes. Zhou Qiang’s questions mirrored his own. In their interactions with Ma Zhiyuan and the others, Su Xuan hadn’t detected any signs of wrongdoing. On the contrary, a faint white light seemed to emanate from them.

Su Xuan had seen this kind of white light on many people before. It was the light of justice, something he associated with police officers and soldiers. Possessing such a light was a hallmark of a genuine law enforcement officer. This left Su Xuan intrigued about their true motives.

“Not fake, but we’re not sure what they’re up to.”

“Last night, the way they were fishing for information, it seems like they didn’t know why we came here.”

“But they’re aggressively probing, which suggests they might have some major operation going on here, and they’re sensitive to outsiders.”

“Of course, this might have nothing to do with us…”

-We just need to focus on our own investigation!”

Su Xuan clenched his fist and gave Zhou Qiang’s shoulder a nudge.

-Even though our cover’s blown, let’s stick to the plan we discussed yesterday!” -I’ll head to the countryside, and you be careful on your own.”

Upon hearing this, Zhou Qiang looked into Su Xuan’s eyes, which held a hint of concern, and immediately chuckled.

■Tve been a cop for so many years, so don’t worry!”

“Let’s split up!”
