Guo Pingsheng was just about to step out the door.

Zhu Hanmin slowly called out, "Stop right there!"

Guo Pingsheng had just paused his steps.

Zhu Hanmin said with disdain, "Director Guo, I suggest you understand clearly, I am the head of Wulan City, Chen Fang is merely a municipal government secretary-general. Does he have the authority to give you orders?"

As soon as these words were spoken,

the room fell completely silent.

At that moment,

Zhao Yiping said, "The Public Security Bureau is a subsidiary of the municipal government, Comrade Chen Fang is my chief secretary. The orders he issues are the same as those I issue. Director Guo, you just need to carry them out. Whatever problems arise, I'll take the responsibility."

"Understood, Mayor Zhao."

After speaking, Guo Pingsheng left directly.

Zhu Hanmin was so angry that he puffed up his beard and glared.

He glanced at Han Guanglei.

Han Guanglei also stood up and walked out.

It seemed he was off to sabotage Guo Pingsheng.

This detail, of course, did not escape Chen Fang's notice.

He looked at Zhu Hanmin and said, "Secretary Zhu, could we have a few words?"

Zhu Hanmin hesitated for a moment, then stood up and walked out of the operations room.

At the end of the corridor,

he lit a cigarette.

Seeing Chen Fang approaching, he asked coldly, "What do you want to talk about?"

Chen Fang sighed deeply and said, "Secretary Zhu, Hou Zhan is a ticking time bomb. If we're not careful, it'll explode. I advise you to stay out of this messy business, otherwise, it could easily backfire on you."

"What do you mean by that? I came here today to apprehend Hou Zhan. Are you suggesting that I let him escape?"

Zhu Hanmin asked.

Chen Fang let out a cold laugh.

He said, "If Hou Zhan escapes, then there won't be any issue. But if he doesn't, there definitely will be. Once that time comes, someone will be discarded like a torn shoe, and it will be too late for regrets."

Zhu Hanmin smiled,

and said, "Chen Fang, Chen Fang, you needn't worry about my affairs. Just take good care of yourself. Don't think that just because you have some big shots backing you, you can do whatever you want in Wulan City. What goes around comes around. We'll wait and see."

After dropping that remark,

Zhu Hanmin left.

Watching his retreating figure, Chen Fang shook his head.

He murmured, "Zhu Hanmin, Zhu Hanmin, that move of yours was a terrible mistake…"

Around 2:10 in the morning,

Hou Zhan drove to the Longjiang dock in Gaokin County.

Just as expected, he saw the tin shack the person who saved him had mentioned.

He looked around,

confirming that no one was following him,

before knocking on the door of the tin shack.

After waiting for about three minutes, the door opened.

Hou Zhan, who was already impatient, complained, "Can you move any faster? Stop dawdling."

Before even clearly seeing the person in front of him,

he forcefully pushed the door open and walked in.

"Turn on the light, do you want me to trip and die?"

Hou Zhan cursed.

With a click,

the light was on.

In front of him was a rather shabby bedroom.

A bed, a dilapidated cupboard, and a small wooden table were all it contained.

The person standing before him was a woman looking to be in her thirties, drowsy, probably just crawled out of bed.

The woman was rather attractive.

Perhaps in a rush, she wore only a large men's T-shirt.

The neckline was too large,

and it had slipped down,

exposing half of her breasts.

It seemed she wore no bra underneath, as her cleavage was quite pronounced.

The hem of the T-shirt covered the crucial parts, but her pale, shapely legs were still exposed.

Seeing the strange look in Hou Zhan's eyes,

the woman quickly adjusted her clothes.

Then, gesturing with her hands, she began mumbling at Hou Zhan.

"Mute?"

Hou Zhan inquired.

The woman must have been able to read lips, as she nodded slightly.

Hou Zhan continued asking, "When does the boat arrive?"

The woman gestured a "three" with her hands and then began mumbling.

At that moment, dark thoughts started stirring in Hou Zhan's mind.

His sleazy gaze wandered over the woman's body.

He licked his lips.

He said, "The boat won't be here for another forty-five minutes, why don't we have some fun?"

The woman didn't seem to understand.

She looked at him, puzzled.

Hou Zhan closed the door and immediately locked it.

Turning to the woman, he said, "Don't worry, I won't touch you for free. I'll pay double, triple the boat fare if need be. Damn it, I've got a lot of pent-up frustration. Let me release some of it."

After saying this,

Hou Zhan started taking off his clothes.

The woman finally realized what he meant.

She kept shaking her head and began stepping back slowly.

At that time,

Hou Zhan had already stripped naked.

He lunged at the woman.

The woman, being mute, couldn't cry out, but she struggled desperately.

Hou Zhan pinned her down on the bed and attempted to "force his way" several times without success.

Rage welled up within him suddenly.

He slapped her face repeatedly and said fiercely, "I'm doing you a favor by sleeping with you. If you don't cooperate, do you believe I can kill you?"

Such a sinister look.

Finally frightened the woman.

Her resistance weakened.

Seeing this,

Hou Zhan ripped.

He tore the woman's T-shirt apart.

Two white and plump "rabbits" bounced out.

Throwing caution to the wind,

Hou Zhan buried his head between them.

He "shuffled" between the two "rabbits" for a while.

After being busy for a while,

The throbbing in his lower body became uncontrollable.

He immediately lifted the woman's legs, aimed for the dense forest, and forcibly thrust in.

At that moment,

Hou Zhan growled excitedly.

His hips worked like a motor starting up, shaking vigorously.

The mute woman, wearing a look of despair,

It was unclear how long it lasted.

Hou Zhan only felt lightness in his lower body, and then he collapsed on the mute woman's chest.

He muttered, "Damn that was exhilarating. It's my first time with a mute."

As soon as he finished speaking,

Hou Zhan felt a stabbing pain in his waist.

He reached his hand to his lower back and felt a wet, sticky sensation, and indeed, there was a dagger plunged into his waist.

"What are you doing?"

Hou Zhan climbed up weakly.

He saw the fury in the mute woman's eyes, almost ready to explode.

With a chuckle,

She pulled the dagger out again.

Hou Zhan tried to dodge, but exhausted as he was, he had no strength to resist and stumbled, falling onto the bed.

This time, it was the woman who lunged at him.

She stabbed the dagger into Hou Zhan's chest repeatedly.

One stab, two stabs, three stabs...

It was unclear how many times she stabbed him.

In no time, Hou Zhan had become a "blood man."

It must be said,

Hou Zhan was tough to kill.

Despite the many stabs, he hadn't yet closed his eyes, blood spraying from his mouth as he lay crookedly on the bed, staring at this woman who had murder in her eyes…
