Chapter 163 One stone stirs up waves
After everyone was seated, the patrol commander, his eyes sharp and fixed on the three men before him, cut to the chase: “You’ve all surely noticed the unusual situation tonight. Twenty thousand Imperial Guards have been mobilized in full force, conducting a city-wide search. The reason for such a large-scale operation is none other than the disappearance of the young Viscount Zhiyong from the night market on Horse Street. The Emperor himself has ordered a city-wide search, so I won’t waste any more words on it. Now, you all hurry back to your respective gangs and thoroughly investigate, and release him. If anything happens to him, none of you will escape responsibility; you will all be executed! Don’t harbor any illusions or try to get away with it. With twenty thousand Imperial Guards and our manpower, you can’t hide him even if you dig three feet into the ground. Only by ensuring that the lord is safe and sound can you rest easy. Alright, that’s all I have to say. Now go back!” With that, the commander waved his hand, signaling them to leave quickly.
The atmosphere in the restaurant was unusually heavy. The vice-leaders of the three gangs exchanged glances, their eyes revealing deep worry and unease. They secretly pondered: the government had personally ordered the search for someone—this was no small matter! If anything were to happen to that person, how could their gangs bear such severe consequences?
"Don't worry, sir, we'll go back and investigate immediately, and then instruct our men to search diligently!" one of them broke the silence, speaking with a serious expression. The other two quickly nodded in agreement, indicating their approval.
No sooner had they finished speaking than the three of them left the restaurant without further ado, rushing off like arrows towards their respective gangs. Along the way, they were frantic with worry, wishing they could instantly fly back to their gangs and make arrangements for the search.
Before long, the three deputy leaders returned to the gang and immediately reported the whole story to the leader. Upon hearing the news, the three leaders' expressions changed drastically, realizing the extreme seriousness of the situation. They immediately summoned their subordinate hall masters and solemnly ordered that the safety of Zhi Yongjue, the person specifically sought by the authorities, be guaranteed.
At this moment, each gang leader felt as if a heavy stone was pressing on their heart. They were all secretly worried about how to handle the aftermath if someone in their gang had recklessly committed such a grave offense. After all, the vice-gang leader had already emphasized the seriousness of the matter; if Zhi Yongjue couldn't be found, the entire gang might be wiped out. Judging from the scale of the search, this person absolutely had to be found! The three gang leaders could only silently pray that the one who had committed such a mistake was not someone from their own gang…
As orders were issued one after another, like a stone thrown into still water, the entire situation instantly descended into chaos. Soon, the three gangs were in complete disarray, like a pot boiling over. They frantically began searching for their target. Their henchmen, who usually handled robberies, were summoned and subjected to rigorous questioning and interrogation.
Time ticked by, and the tense atmosphere grew increasingly heavy. Finally, news reached Liu Da. When he heard it, his heart skipped a beat, as if a boulder had suddenly fallen into an abyss. He thought to himself, "Could it be that child that Lai Zi kidnapped a few days ago, who's still a baby?" At this thought, Liu Da felt a chill run down his spine, and fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
