Xiaoshan soaked Xu Manqing once a day.
By the next day, Xu Manqing was already able to sit up.
Seeing her injuries recover so quickly, Xu Manqing felt very happy.
She even had Xiaoshan push her in a wheelchair around the hospital for the day.
In the evening, after feeding Xu Manqing, she went to bed early and fell asleep.
Xiaoshan, however, was still ditating.
Even though his cultivation was slow, it was like building a tower by accumulating grains of sand.
And by continuously consuming those Spirit Vegetables and Spirit Shrimp, his cultivation was steadily growing.
Late at night.
The crescent moon in the sky gradually hid itself behind thick clouds.
Suddenly, Xiaoshan opened his eyes, his mouth curving into a cold arc.
They still ca after all!
Having waited for two days, those people finally took action.
Without making a sound, he moved to the door, waited for a mont, then abruptly pulled it open.
The three n standing at the doorway clearly hadn’t anticipated that the door would be yanked open suddenly. One of them was holding a piece of wire, evidently in the act of attempting to pick the lock.
For a mont, the three n and Xiaoshan faced each other.
These three were the most formidable n under Zheng Chao’s command.
They all reacted swiftly.
The one in the front imdiately bent his knee to charge at Xiaoshan.
However, Xiaoshan’s speed was much faster than theirs.
As the knee was just raised, the man’s stomach received a fierce blow, causing him to curl up, vomiting everything he had eaten.
Xiaoshan stepped forward and stomped down, knocking the man out.
At the sa ti, he swung his other foot, sending another man flying.
The last man, seeing how quickly Xiaoshan had taken down his two companions, was startled, and after rolling backward, he drew a gun from his waist and aid it at Xiaoshan.
Pop!
The gun, obviously equipped with a silencer, was not loud as it fired.
Just as he thought he would surely take Xiaoshan down,
Xiaoshan had disappeared.
Then, the man’s vision went dark, and he knew no more.
All this happened very quickly.
From the mont Xiaoshan opened the door to when the third man fell, only ten seconds had passed.
After scanning the surroundings with his Spirit Eye to make sure there was no fourth person, Xiaoshan exhaled.
He touched each of the three n, then dragged them to another room to begin an interrogation using his thods.
Even the toughest bones are no match for Xiaoshan’s techniques.
In the end, none of these three could withstand it and confessed the truth.
As expected, it was Zheng Chao who had sent them to kill Xu Manqing.
Xiaoshan’s eyes were icy. Although he wanted to finish off these three n, he didn’t act on it because he had promised Sister Qin not to kill people at will.
So he recorded the confessions of the three n.
The next day he called Qin You, asking her to send people to the hospital to take these three away.
When Qin You saw these three n, she was startled.
These were three of Zheng Chao’s top lieutenants.
They were well-known in Niu Y County.
Each one strong enough to single-handedly take on a group.
She hadn’t expected them to be captured by Xiaoshan, and what’s more, these fierce generals were looking at Xiaoshan with eyes full of fear, as if they couldn’t wait for Qin You to take them away. Qin You gave Xiaoshan curious glances.
"Xiaoshan, what did you do to them?"
"Nothing much, Sister Qin. Here is the recording of their confessions from last night. It should be useful, right?"
Xiaoshan turned on the recording on his phone.
Three recordings were played.
After listening to the recordings, Qin You’s face lit up with surprise, and she almost felt like kissing Long Xiaoshan.
She had not expected Long Xiaoshan to even obtain such detailed testimonies.
These three were Zheng Chao’s confidants, and many of the misdeeds at the Grand Tycoon Hotel were committed by them; their testimonies were extrely important.
With these testimonies, it was entirely possible to pry loose this illegal syndicate.
To bring down this behemoth deeply entrenched and intricately connected in Niu Y County.
Otherwise, with only Xu Manqing’s testimony, at most it could cause trouble for Zheng Xiaohao alone.
Taking these three people and the testimonies with her, Qin You hurried back to the police station...
Long Xiaoshan watched Qin You leave.
He frowned.
He always felt that things wouldn’t be so simple.
Another day passed.
Long Xiaoshan finally heard the news about the Grand Tycoon Hotel being sealed and investigated.
He was overjoyed and imdiately called Qin You.
"Sister Qin, congratulations."
"Congratulations for what," Qin You’s tone was weary and angry.
"What happened? Sister Qin, weren’t Zheng Chao and his n arrested?" Long Xiaoshan asked upon sensing sothing amiss.
"Zheng Chao escaped, along with the core mbers of his gang."
"What?"
"Yesterday, after I brought back the evidence, I imdiately applied to seal off the Grand Tycoon Hotel, but we only caught a bunch of small fries; the main culprits all ran away."
"Xiaoshan, I’m sorry, I’ve let you down," said Qin You, sounding disheartened.
"Sister Qin, you don’t need to apologize to , it’s not your fault, but soone must correct this mistake, and from now on, leave it to ,"
Long Xiaoshan said coldly.
He had no intention of letting Zheng Chao go.
Long Xiaoshan wasn’t afraid of Zheng Chao fleeing.
Even if they ran to the ends of the earth, he had ways to find them.
But for now, he couldn’t act.
Since Xu Manqing’s injuries hadn’t fully recovered, to be on the safe side, he planned to wait for her complete recovery before looking for Zheng Chao.
After Qin You’s call was hung up by Long Xiaoshan.
She felt uneasy.
She knew Long Xiaoshan well; this simple farr had an unknown side. With Long Xiaoshan speaking like this, he was likely going to personally look for Zheng Chao.
Qin You started to worry and quickly went downstairs to head to the hospital.
Just as Qin You stepped out of the residential area.
She heard a rustle of wind and, being alert, managed to dodge, but her arm still felt like it had been bitten by a mosquito.
She looked down and saw it was a tranquillizer dart, imdiately realizing sothing was wrong.
Wanting to retreat back to the residential area, she had barely taken a few steps before a severe dizziness overwheld her, and Qin You collapsed to the ground...
...
"Teacher Xu, your injuries have healed, you can try standing up now."
In the hospital, after finishing the last dicinal bath treatnt for Xu Manqing, Long Xiaoshan checked her condition and confird her recovery.
"Really?"
"Really, Teacher, let help you up to try."
With Long Xiaoshan’s support, Xu Manqing slowly placed her feet on the ground and then propped up her body.
A mont later, Xu Manqing stood up.
"We did it!" Long Xiaoshan exclaid with a smile.
"I’m standing up, thank you, Xiaoshan," Xu Manqing cried out emotionally, reaching out to hug Long Xiaoshan.
Long Xiaoshan smiled gently, patting Xu Manqing’s back.
Just as he was about to say a few words, suddenly his phone rang.
