I am the Holy Poisoner, the Empress advised me to calm down

Just as everyone in the lobby was in a state of panic, Sheng Nanting received a call from Officer Liu. "Old Liu, what's the situation now?"

"We just received intelligence that this group of people seem to have set their sights on the residential complex where Lu Yining's family lives. Please contact them as soon as possible and ensure their safety." Officer Liu's voice was extremely serious.

"I understand. I'll take action right away." Sheng Nanting hung up the phone and immediately turned to Xu Shengli and Zhao Xiuying and said, "We must leave here now and go to a safe place."

The three of them quickly stood up and walked outside. As soon as they exited the police station, a black sedan pulled up in front of them. The window rolled down, and the man in the driver's seat revealed a stern face. "Hurry up and get in. I've already arranged a hiding place."

Xu Shengli and Zhao Xiuying didn't have time to think before getting in the car. Sheng Nanting sat in the passenger seat, vigilantly observing the surroundings. The car started and sped away from the police station.

"Where are we going?" Xu Shengli asked nervously.

"Let's find a safe place to hide for the time being." Sheng Nanting replied.

The car sped through the night, the city lights fading into the distance. Outside the Yueting Hotel, a special police team had already cordoned off the area. Exclamations erupted from the crowd, some pulling out their phones to film this rare scene.

"This is unbelievable, what on earth is going on?" exclaimed a passerby.

Another passerby took over the conversation: "It seems that something big is going to happen tonight. We need to leave here quickly."

Just as the SWAT team was preparing to take action, the short-haired girl in the Yueting Hotel lobby suddenly spotted a familiar figure standing in a corner—it was the mysterious man from before. She gently nudged the man with glasses and whispered, "Look, he's here again!"

The man with glasses followed her gaze and saw the man standing in the shadows, watching everything. He sighed softly, "This guy is really elusive. I wonder what will happen next..."

As the night deepens, the streets become filled with tension. This battle, filled with unknowns and dangers, is about to begin...

"Hey, who are these men in black from? Why are they so nervous?" The man with glasses turned and asked the girl with short hair.

"I don't know either. I hope they can resolve this smoothly," the short-haired girl replied. Their eyes were fixed on the men in black, their hearts filled with anticipation and unease. The black sedan sped through the dark city night, the scenery outside the window rapidly receding. Xu Shengli and Zhao Xiuying sat in the back seat, their expressions tense. Sheng Nanting constantly scanned the surroundings, alert for any possible threats.

"Nanting, are you sure?" Xu Shengli couldn't help but ask, his voice filled with worry.

Sheng Nanting replied in a deep voice: "The situation is complicated now, but I won't put you in any danger."

At this moment, the car suddenly turned into a narrow alley and slowed down. The driver glanced at the three people behind him through the rearview mirror and whispered, "Don't worry, this is the safe house I arranged. The outside is under surveillance, and no one can easily get close."

The car stopped in front of a seemingly unremarkable house. The three of them quickly exited and followed the driver into the safe house. The lights inside were dim, and the air was filled with a faint smell of disinfectant. Several pieces of tactical equipment hung on the wall, clearly indicating this was a temporary base.

Xu Shengli looked around and frowned, "Is this really a safe place? It feels a bit eerie."

The driver smiled and explained, “This is one of the police’s secret strongholds. We have people watching outside, so we’ll be fine.”

At this time, a middle-aged man in casual clothes walked in with a document in his hand. "Mr. Sheng, this is the latest intelligence summary."

Sheng Nanting took the document and quickly flipped through it. After reading it, his expression became even more serious. "The situation is more complicated than we imagined. The background of this multinational group is far beyond our expectations. We must act immediately."

The middle-aged man nodded and looked at Xu Shengli and Zhao Xiuying. "You two stay here and don't go out. Our people will protect you. If there is any abnormal situation, please contact me immediately."

After that, the middle-aged man left the room. Zhao Xiuying held Xu Shengli's hand and said softly, "Don't worry, everything will be fine."

Elsewhere, outside the Yueting Hotel, SWAT teams were deployed, and several men in black were trying to communicate with the front desk, requesting surveillance footage. The crowd grew increasingly uneasy, many pulling out their phones to film the scene.

The short-haired girl whispered to the man with glasses, "Look at those policemen. They look like they're in big trouble. I really hope they can solve the problem."

At this moment, a young man in plain clothes was walking by. Seeing the scene before him, he couldn't help but stop and said in surprise: "What is going on? There are so many police officers!"

Passersby also joined in the discussion: "Maybe something serious has happened. Let's leave quickly."

As the SWAT team launched their operation, Sheng Nanting and Officer Liu were already urgently coordinating follow-up plans. Sheng Nanting picked up the phone and quickly contacted officers at various posts, "Everyone, listen up! The target is nearby. Be sure to stay hidden and be ready to act at any time!"

Just as he finished speaking, a huge explosion suddenly sounded outside, and flames shot up into the sky. The windows of the Yueting Hotel were shattered, and the crowd was in chaos.

"What's going on!" Xu Shengli stood up suddenly, his face full of panic.

Sheng Nanting held him down and said, "Sit still and don't move. We will take care of it!"

At this time, a man in black rushed out of the hotel, holding a submachine gun and looking around. When he saw that he was surrounded by police officers, he immediately realized that something was wrong and turned around to escape.

The short-haired girl exclaimed, "That man has a gun in his hand!"

"Call the police! Get help!" the man with glasses shouted anxiously.

Suddenly, several figures emerged from the darkness and subdued the man in black with precision. Applause and cheers erupted from the crowd, and everyone admired these brave police officers.

At the entrance of the Yueting Hotel, a reporter was reporting from the scene. She excitedly said to the camera, "This is the scene of the latest emergency. The police arrived in time and successfully subdued a suspected criminal. The incident is still under further investigation."

Just when everyone thought the incident was over, another black car quietly appeared on a nearby street. Inside the car window, a pair of sharp eyes coldly scanned the surroundings.

"I didn't expect to be discovered so soon," the person in the car said calmly, "but the game has just begun..."

The short-haired girl shuddered as she watched the car disappear into the night. "That man's look just now was truly terrifying..."
