At this time, the sky was drawing its curtain close, and because the people of Geely Town were panicked, all doors were shut tight, and no one ventured outside, so almost no one could be seen on the streets. Wang Xiaoqiang wanted to inquire about Mr. James's whereabouts but couldn't find anyone to ask, so he had no choice but to phone him.

Mr. James was currently in Geely Town's square, talking with the armed police officers, and he was quite surprised to receive Wang Xiaoqiang's call. When he heard that Wang Xiaoqiang had already arrived in Geely Town, he couldn't help but feel a strange sense of worry, "Wang, what are you doing in Geely Town? It's very dangerous here…"

Wang Xiaoqiang said, "I've come to help you with the case…"

"Alright, since you're here, come over. We are in the town square…" Mr. James suddenly thought of Wang Xiaoqiang's capabilities and immediately changed his mind.

After Wang Xiaoqiang hung up, he made his way directly to the square in Geely Town.

By then, Wang Xiaoqiang noticed nearly fifty armed police officers assembled in the square, waiting for orders.

On the ground of the square lay five bodies, though they were now covered with white cloths.

Seeing Wang Xiaoqiang approach, Mr. James immediately went to greet him, "Wang…, coming to town at this time is really inopportune…"

"Since I'm here, let's not talk about useless matters. Can I see the victims…"

Wang Xiaoqiang said very directly.

Mr. James shrugged his shoulders, led Wang Xiaoqiang to the five bodies, and then ordered the people guarding the bodies to uncover the white cloths.

As the cloths were pulled back, the five corpses were revealed with their heads smashed like watermelons dropped on the ground. However, strangely, not a drop of brain matter was seen, and the bodies were shriveled up, as if all their blood had been drained.

The manner of death was too horrific to bear, and it was quite bizarre.

Upon seeing this, Wang Xiaoqiang knew right away that this was not the work of humans. Pointing at the bodies on the ground, he said to Mr. James, "Mr. James, do you think this was a homicide committed by a human?"

"It doesn't seem so, but there are no wild animals in the area within ten miles; if it wasn't done by a person, what could it be? Maybe it's meant to confuse our criminal investigators with some sort of trickery…"

Wang Xiaoqiang shook his head, pulled Mr. James aside, and whispered, "It's zombies."

"Wang…, stop joking. There are no zombies in this world; zombies only exist in movies. I would rather believe it's vampires…"

Vampires?

Wang Xiaoqiang suddenly realized that he had overlooked one thing – it was possible that vampires were behind this.

He had encountered vampires before; they were incredibly strong and their methods were quite ruthless.

"Mr. James, I would like to join the criminal investigation team and help crack the case," Wang Xiaoqiang requested.

"No, absolutely not. That would be too dangerous. There's no need for you to take such a risk, nor is it your obligation," Mr. James shook his head repeatedly.

"Then do you have any leads on solving the case…"

"None…"

"What's your next step?"

"We plan to stay in town overnight to calm the townspeople's nerves, and then decide what to do next in the morning."

"…" Wang Xiaoqiang was left speechless; on the surface, it was to calm the townspeople, but in reality, they were powerless.

Think about it, without any clues, where to investigate?

"Then, arrange a place for me to stay as well. It's getting dark, and I need to stay here overnight…" Wang Xiaoqiang said.

"Alright!" Mr. James nodded and then arranged for Wang Xiaoqiang's accommodation and meal.

Eventually, Wang Xiaoqiang was set up in the same place where Mr. James was staying, the town government compound. After eating a working meal, Wang Xiaoqiang went to sleep, while Mr. James still had a meeting to attend. He did not return until ten at night.

The armed police officers did not sleep during the night and patrolled the town instead.

Late into the night.

The night sky was dark, and a cold wind was swirling.

Suddenly…

"Ah…" A scream was heard, followed by the frenzied barking of police dogs, and then gunfire erupted.

The sounds of fighting, the cries of agony… a chaotic mix.

Wang Xiaoqiang awoke with a start, immediately got dressed, and hastened outside.

"Wang, come back, it's too dangerous, you can't go!" Mr. James immediately tried to stop him.

"Since I'm already here, I naturally want to see for myself," Wang Xiaoqiang said decisively, twisting away and leaving.

The sounds were coming from the southeast side of the town. Wang Xiaoqiang raced toward the source of the noise and soon arrived at the edge of the town, where he saw four or five police officers' bodies on the ground, heads split open, still clutching their guns tightly.

Meanwhile, a group of police officers was fiercely firing at four men clad in black.

In the midst of bullets flying, the four black-clad men leaped and moved with agility, seemingly unbothered by the gunfire, or perhaps, the bullets posed no threat to them. In the darkness, these four figures darted about like hunting leopards, extraordinarily agile. Each time they sprung close to a police officer, a horrific scream was heard, followed by another officer falling dead.

Under the grip of panic, the other armed police soldiers tightly clutched their guns and swept the area with gunfire to no avail. The police captain, crouching beneath the vehicle, requested rocket launcher support from headquarters.

Vampires?!

Focusing on those four black-clad individuals, Wang Xiaoqiang immediately made a judgment and retaliated without hesitation.

In the face of a barrage of bullets, Wang Xiaoqiang wasn't foolish enough to rush to the front. He simply waved his hand and cast a Spiritual Energy Long Spear.

The Spiritual Energy Long Spear shot towards one of the black-clad men, or more accurately, a vampire.

The next moment...

The Spiritual Energy Long Spear struck the vampire's abdomen, sending it flying before finally pinning it to the ground, dead.

The remaining three vampires, seeing their kin killed by an unseen force, panicked. They looked around frantically. Vampires lacked Divine Sense, so they couldn't detect the Spiritual Energy inside Wang Xiaoqiang; only he could see the Spiritual Energy Long Spear, leaving them unsure whether it was Wang Xiaoqiang who had delivered the Attack Techniques.

It was at this moment that Wang Xiaoqiang sent a Spiritual Energy Sword towards another vampire.

Whoosh!

The Spiritual Energy Sword cut through the air, landing squarely on the vampire's chest, nearly splitting it open. Despite the severe wound, blood gushed out profusely.

It fell to the ground, dead.

The physical body of a vampire was dozens of times stronger than that of a human, but once breached, they could just as easily be put to death.

Seeing two bold and confident black-clad men die mysteriously, the armed police soldiers, while pleased, were also perplexed. They immediately ceased firing, their eyes scanning around, wondering if God had come to their aid.

Vampires possessed senses five times stronger than humans. The other two vampires had noticed Wang Xiaoqiang when he launched the Spiritual Energy Sword. Seeing him casually take the life of another of their kind with a wave of his hand, they were angered but dared not confront him directly. They leaped up, attempting to flee in vain.

Wang Xiaoqiang jumped out from his hiding place, both hands slicing through the air towards the two vampires.

Two more Spiritual Energy Swords flew from his hands.

Crisp! Crisp!

After two sharp sounds, the bodies of the two vampires were cleaved in half by the Spiritual Energy Swords, blood spraying everywhere.

With that.

All four vampires were dead.

The armed police soldiers gathered around, pointing their guns at the four mangled bodies. The blood on the ground was nauseating.

James and eight detective officers arrived at that moment, shining their torchlights. The bright white light turned the pool of blood a dark, reddish black, and the detectives began a thorough investigation around the four vampires.

The police captain pointed to Wang Xiaoqiang and reported to James, "Governor, sir, it was him who killed these four black-clad men."

James nodded, walked over to Wang Xiaoqiang, and said gratefully, "Wang, thanks for your help…"

Wang Xiaoqiang said, "These four people…, they are vampires."

"Keep your voice down… don't upset the troops…" James cautioned. "Even if they are vampires, we can't just say that, the higher-ups won't believe it…"

"I think those vampires won't just let this slide. They'll come back…"

"No, no… What happened tonight will serve as a warning to them. They won't dare show their faces again for a while…" James said with seasoned confidence.

Just then, a medical examiner had concluded that all four black-clad individuals bled more than a normal person, and their body structure required further examination.

James felt a sinking feeling at this news, then said to Wang Xiaoqiang, "Wang, thank you. We can only reach a conclusion after a thorough investigation. Why don't you leave this place for now…"

"I have someone to find…" said Wang Xiaoqiang.

"Then once I'm done with this, I will come to find you…"

"Alright…!". Wang Xiaoqiang nodded. Now that the case was cleared up, James could close it. As for future matters, neither James nor Wang Xiaoqiang could control them. Wang Xiaoqiang had no desire to stay in this bloody town.

Wang Xiaoqiang left Geely Town in the early morning. First, he went back to James's house to let Jenny know he was safe. Relieved to see her father was unharmed, Jenny was exceedingly grateful to Wang Xiaoqiang and urged him to stay.

Wang Xiaoqiang called the ranch and, learning that everything was peaceful, decided to stay and keep Jenny company, waiting for James.

Jenny naturally entertained Wang Xiaoqiang with fine wine and cuisine, and even washed up in the evening to accommodate him.

Two days later, James returned home. Seeing Wang Xiaoqiang there, he thanked him profusely once more. If not for Wang Xiaoqiang, he wouldn't have felt at ease as governor. He said the case was closed and that he could rest at home for a week.

Neither mentioned the case again, not wanting to frighten Jenny.

Wang Xiaoqiang brought up the matter of selling Kobe Beef. James said there would be no problem and agreed to help, promptly contacting several upscale hotels in Sydney for Wang Xiaoqiang.

Steak was a staple of Western cuisine, and Australian food was closely tied to beef. In fact, Australians inevitably ordered a steak with their meals, so restaurants always needed a supply of beef.

Hearing James recommend restaurants to him, Wang Xiaoqiang suddenly recalled his days of selling vegetables back home and realized that selling Kobe Beef to hotels was the Righteous Path, because only upscale establishments would pay a high price.

Wang Xiaoqiang was earnest in his business dealings. Instead of directly contacting the hotels to discuss prices, he went back to the ranch to slaughter cattle, planning to bring the beef with him to negotiate a price. (To be continued.
