Once I enter the pass, great Confucian scholars will surely debate the classics for me.

The following day, Jin Wei, who was guarding the body of the perpetrator at the crematorium, heard that Zhou Qingfeng had asked him to come over. He immediately instructed the coroner, Ren Wuji, to keep a close watch on the body before daring to go to the Night Patrol Division to meet Zhou Qingfeng.

Jin Wei stopped outside the archives, bowed and clasped his hands, saying, "Commander, Jin Wei has come on orders."

Zhou Qingfeng walked out of the archives and gestured to Jin Wei not to stand on ceremony: "There were assassins who attacked yesterday, but I captured them. The stolen goods they were carrying are still stored in the prison. Go and take care of them."

Jin Wei was startled and quickly asked, "Who dares to be so bold as to break into the Night Patrol Office to assassinate you?"

Zhou Qingfeng said indifferently, "They're just three small fry. Alright, when you see them, you can ask them if you're interested. Now go and get on with your business."

Jin Wei clasped his hands in obeisance and left, but turned back halfway: "Commander, the bodies from the crematorium..."

Zhou Qingfeng thought for a moment and said, "There's no need to guard them anymore. Go to the crematorium later and burn the bodies of those two criminals. After you're done, remember to send the ashes to their families. Have Ah Gou deliver them."

"Yes, Commander." Jin Wei bowed slightly and left to carry out the order.

Jin Wei's work efficiency is quite good, and he's getting more and more comfortable using the tool. Before lunch, he had already finished handling the matter and made a special trip back to the archives to report on his achievements.

Zhou Qingfeng glanced at the old cripple working at his desk, then gestured for Jin Wei to talk in the separate case file storage room next door. The two moved to the case file room, closed the door, and Zhou Qingfeng casually found a place to sit down.

Jin Wei clasped his hands and bowed, saying, "Commander, I have met the three Shui siblings, and the stolen goods have been disposed of."

The implication is that, ding-dong, another large sum of money has entered your savings account.

Zhou Qingfeng nodded: "That's good."

Jin Wei and Zhou Qingfeng have now developed a strong rapport. Whenever Zhou Qingfeng needs to spend money, Jin Wei takes care of it all. Jin Wei is also very clear about his role: a moneybag and a part-time enforcer.

Jin Wei said, "Commander, there are two small matters that I feel are necessary to report to you."

Zhou Qingfeng crossed his arms and looked at Jin Wei: "Speak, what happened this time?"

Jin Wei said, "Chief Ye and Chief Xiao were assassinated last night, just like you, by the three Shui siblings."

"Commander Ye was slashed 372 times, and one of his legs was crippled. He is currently in the hospital. His life has been saved, and his wounds have been treated, but he will probably not be able to get out of bed for several days."

"Commander Xiao suffered thirty-six knife wounds, each one a penetrating wound. His injuries are very serious, especially his legs, which were also crippled. He is not in mortal danger now, but he still needs to rest for a few days."

Zhou Qingfeng nodded: "I understand. There's one more thing."

Jin Wei said, "Agou has been driven out of the city by the Lu Si Mansion and his whereabouts are unknown. It is said that the Lu Si Mansion wants him to go to a farm in the wilderness to farm for the rest of his life and forbids him from returning to Jianta. This may be the Lu Si Mansion's revenge on you."

“You treated Ah Gou differently and were willing to nurture him, but the Lu Si Mansion drove him away, which was clearly aimed at you.”

Zhou Qingfeng waved his hand: "With the wisdom and talent of the Lu Si Mansion, their methods would not be so despicable."

"Because getting rid of a dog is of no importance to me."

"There must be some unknown reason for Ah Gou's departure."

"Send someone out of the city to investigate Ah Gou's whereabouts."

"Also, you should stay at the Night Patrol Division for now. Unless it's urgent, don't go out on your own."

Jin Wei cupped his hands in acknowledgment: "Yes, Commander, I will await orders at the headquarters."

Zhou Qingfeng nodded, signaling Jin Wei to leave, and then waited alone in the case file room.

What are you waiting for?

Waiting for the final battle between Fengyun and Lu Sifu!

At this moment, whether it's Feng Manlou, Yun Fan, or Lu Sifu, their only opponent is each other; they, Xiao Hongyun, and Ye Tingxiu are merely caught in the crossfire of the struggle.

He managed to escape danger by relying on his ability to avoid misfortune, while Xiao Hongyun and Ye Tingxiu did not.

However, according to his own prediction, this struggle was only the beginning, and the struggle would only intensify.

……

In a secluded courtyard in the city, Feng Manlou and Yunfan were enjoying a hearty drink together.

Yunfan chuckled: "The three dream fulfillers who helped us achieve our wishes were caught by Zhou Qingfeng, but it doesn't matter. We've already broken two of their legs, so we've achieved our goal. Zhou Qingfeng is lucky."

Feng Manlou laughed and said, "This is a huge mess. Two servants from the city lord's mansion, who are also the captains of the Night Patrol Division, had their legs broken in the street. This matter is definitely related to Lu Nanping."

Lu Nanping is Lu Sifu's real name, but outsiders rarely know his real name anymore. After all, at his position, everyone respectfully calls him the Palace Commander, and outsiders also respectfully call him Sifu.

Yunfan took a sip of wine and said with great enthusiasm, "Let's add fuel to the fire."

"Before we fall out with Lu Nanping, let's throw out all the evidence against Zhou Qingfeng and those few weaklings, and send it all to the City Lord's Mansion in one go. We'll file a formal complaint under the name of the Commander-in-Chief's confidant!"

Feng Manlou laughed loudly: "Hahaha, now we should send the evidence of Zhou Qingfeng and his gang's crimes to the City Lord's Mansion. Whether we can kill Zhou Qingfeng and his gang of weaklings or not is not important, but Lu Nanping will definitely be finished!"

They actually possessed a considerable amount of evidence of crimes committed by the Lu Sifu, but they were unable to hand it over.

This is a last resort, a last-ditch effort.

Unless they are unfortunately killed by Lu Sifu during their revenge, this evidence will be secretly sent to the city lord's mansion by people they arranged in advance, dragging Lu Sifu down with them.

We haven't reached that point yet, there's absolutely no need for it.

"Those who kill my loved ones shall be killed!" Feng Manlou raised his wine cup, his eyes fixed firmly on Yun Fan.

Upon hearing this, Yunfan filled his wine cup to the brim and clinked it against Feng Manlou's: "Those who kill my loved ones shall be killed!"

……

At the Lu residence, the Lu Sifu, holding the intelligence report sent from below, was so angry he almost couldn't catch his breath.

He stared tremblingly at the intelligence reports, which seemed like death knells for him.

[Commander Ye Tingxiu was assassinated and seriously wounded.]

[Commander Xiao Hongyun was assassinated and seriously wounded.]

[Commander Zhou Qingfeng, after being assassinated, captured three thieves, thus achieving another great feat.]

[It has been discovered that someone secretly paid money to the Dream Fulfillment Organization to wish for one of Zhou, Xiao, and Ye's legs to be broken.]

"Damn it, they actually attacked the City Lord's Mansion at this time." Lu Sifu's mind raced, and he immediately suspected that Feng Yun and his companion had paid for it, because only when their own people fight each other do they know where it hurts the most.

“It’s over.” Lu Sifu slumped into his chair. He knew it was all over. From the moment Ye Tingxiu and Xiao Hongyun’s legs were broken, his position as Sifu was completely over, and his painstakingly maintained plan had completely collapsed.

The city lord was already suspicious of him and specially sent his servants to divide his power and sideline him. However, not long after he arrived at the Night Patrol Division, two of his servants were beaten to a pulp. No matter how he explained, the city lord would definitely replace him.

This was an outcome that was already foreseeable.

"The wind fills the tower, the clouds fill the sails... I thought you would prioritize the greater good and wouldn't go crazy and lose your minds in the short term without evidence that I was responsible."

"But I was wrong. My mistake was not killing you all immediately!"

Lu Sifu covered his face in deep regret. One wrong step led to another, resulting in total defeat. He peered through his fingers at the servant rushing in from outside the door, his eyes filled with ruthless cruelty: "What is it!?"

The servant of the Lu family hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "Master, the city lord's mansion has sent someone to invite you to come over."

"Get out!!!" Lu Sifu roared hysterically in a fit of rage.
