"Today, gathering everyone here is of great importance. The higher-ups have already issued an order. Recently, a batch of drug trafficking gangs has surfaced. They just escaped from South Sea City and are heading to the Yunfu area. However, these people are citizens of South Sea City, and we must assist the Yunfu police in capturing them and bringing them to justice," Zhao Bing instructed.

"Chief, how many people are there in this gang? How many of our officers do we need to send over? If there are too many, won't we alert them?" Zhang Yufei pondered and thought it best to ask clearly.

"Yes, we must not alert them. According to insider information, this criminal gang from South Sea City has been hidden for many years. They have been collaborating with an organization called Earth Dragon in Yunfu. Their successful escape this time is also due to Earth Dragon's assistance."

Zhao Bing analyzed, "Therefore, to capture these people, we must simultaneously eradicate the Earth Dragon Organization. We must collaborate with the local police; otherwise, relying solely on our own strength, it is utterly impossible to accomplish."

"So, Chief, what should we do? According to what you said, if the Earth Dragon Organization is very formidable, this matter becomes even more troublesome. Although we are all part of one police force, after all, it was our problem that fled to someone else's territory. If Earth Dragon were easy to deal with, the local police would have eliminated them long ago, without needing us to struggle like this."

Zhang Yufei was no novice either. In this situation, she understood roughly how to analyze it.

Zhao Bing furrowed his brows; he was well aware of this situation, but he quickly spoke up again, "I know that we can't defy the tasks given by the higher-ups. We can only accept the mission and then accomplish it. If the task is challenging, we must find a way to tackle it."

"Alright then."

Zhang Yufei had nothing more to say. They indeed could not defy the orders from higher-ups; they could only comply.

If it were possible to evade it, Zhao Bing would have long evaded it, and there would be no urgent meetings like this, especially with the New Year approaching. It seems that the South Sea City Police Bureau won't have a good New Year this year.

"Everyone, the higher-ups have issued the order. We need to solve the case before the fifteen of the next lunar month. In other words, we only have twenty days. If we can't solve it in these twenty days, we'll be handing in resignation letters, going back to our individual homes, and seeking help from our families."

Zhao Bing was straightforward by nature, saying whatever needed to be said.

"Yes, Chief."

Everyone clearly understood the seriousness of this, as this would affect their livelihoods—a matter they certainly couldn't take lightly.

After the meeting concluded, everyone began to prepare their work. As Zhang Yufei was about to leave the conference room, Zhao Bing called her back, "Xiaoling, stay behind!"

"Oh? Chief, you have something more to discuss? Alright then." Zhang Yufei just stood up but returned to her seat.

"Come over here, I need to discuss something confidential with you," Zhao Bing said.

Zhang Yufei nodded, walked over, and sat at the closest position to Zhao Bing. She then asked, "Chief, what's the matter?"

"It's like this, besides our direct involvement in the operation this time, we also need to find someone to infiltrate Earth Dragon from within to have coordination. Without internal assistance, it's impossible to thoroughly crush these drug traffickers, given their strong roots," Zhao Bing analyzed.

"Chief, just say what you need to say directly. You're making me dizzy," Zhang Yufei said with a wry smile, feeling a bit overwhelmed.

"Haha, alright, Xiaoling's straightforward nature is just what we need. Actually, what I'm considering is getting two of our team members to infiltrate the Earth Dragon Organization as internal agents. After the New Year, our unit will proceed over there immediately. This way, it won't cause alarm. After all, Earth Dragon celebrates the New Year too, and during the festive atmosphere, they will undoubtedly be less vigilant. That will be the best time for us to act," Zhao Bing said.

"Oh? I roughly understand. Do you want me to send someone to go undercover?"

Zhang Yufei finally understood but then thought for a moment and said, "But in our team, apart from Li Jun and Zhou Qiang, there are only me left who could handle undercover work. The others would be at risk if they entered."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Bing also frowned. If they sent individuals with moderate skills and weak adaptability inside, it would not only risk exposure but also alert the enemy, making it a futile effort.

So, after much thought, Zhao Bing made a decision and took a risk, "Xiaoling, this operation is extremely important. It concerns the authority of our South Sea City Police Bureau in the eyes of the higher-ups. If we can't complete it, the next term might see us entirely replaced. Everyone's job is hard to come by, so I'm hoping you and Li Jun can consider going to Yunfu to infiltrate the Earth Dragon Organization as undercover agents."

"This… I'll reply to you in a couple of days."

Zhang Yufei intends to go back and have a proper New Year's celebration. Last year, she was too busy handling traffic security in the traffic police brigade on duty. She initially thought that having become the team leader in the criminal investigation team this year, she could have a peaceful New Year, but it turned out that even that is impossible this year.

"Alright then. The criminals have just fled there. If we send people to blend in now, it will surely arouse suspicion. I'm thinking of waiting a few days. Once things settle down on their side, you can then appear. I'll come up with a clear plan before you head out," Zhao Bing said, not daring to take action right away, as it could alarm the enemy.

"Okay, I'll talk to Li Jun and see if he's willing."

Zhang Yufei nodded. Since they've accepted the mission, they had to go all out. Although she said so, she knew Li Jun would certainly go.

Li Jun was notorious for always wanting to be with her. Now that the opportunity had come, there was no way he'd refuse.

After Zhang Yufei left, Zhao Bing let out a deep sigh. In reality, his ideal candidate was Chen Tianlong, but Chen Tianlong wasn't one of them and had no obligation to give up his New Year for this favor.

Moreover, the mission was dangerous, and if anything happened, he couldn't explain it to Chen Tianlong's family.

After contemplating for a while, Zhao Bing shook his head, sighed lightly, and began drafting his drug eradication plan. The operation this time involved a massive workload. Even though only eight people escaped from South Sea City, the Earth Dragon Organization in Yunfu had over a thousand members, deeply rooted locally.

To completely eliminate this gang, internal coordination from inside and outside was crucial.

However, if South Sea City deployed a large police force, it would certainly alert the enemies, making it impossible to catch them red-handed. The gang managed to thrive locally, undoubtedly having their strategies.

Thus, in the following few nights, Zhao Bing didn't sleep well, thinking through the night, determined to find a more perfect plan.
