Soli Living Village.

Inside a paper mill, Su Tianbei and his brothers were squatting in the factory's warehouse.

"Buzz!"

The ventilation fan above the warehouse rotated slowly.

Seven or eight brothers were sitting askew, leaning against the goods, almost all of them injured. They were helping each other change into clean gauze. Strips of gauze stained with blood, clothes, and cigarette butts were scattered messily around them.

"The Soli sailors have left. They did a good job. Settle their remaining payment quickly. Yes, we're waiting at the factory now. It's safe here for the moment... The others haven't arrived yet, hurry them up..." Su Tianbei sat on a wooden crate, talking on the phone. A brother next to him gave Tianbei a shot of local anesthetic and used medical pliers to dig out a bright red bullet, quickly stopping the bleeding.

After hanging up the phone, Su Tianbei scanned his surroundings with a grim expression. Looking at the wounded lying around, he felt a surge of irritability. Because of one traitor, so many brothers were either dead or injured. It was just not worth it.

The warehouse door was suddenly pushed open, and a young man who had been watching outside came in: "Second Brother, the An faction is back."

Su Tianbei took the bandage from his brother's hand, tightened it himself, and immediately got up to meet them.

"Clang!"

The two iron gates were opened, and a large group of people came in, carrying several wounded men on makeshift folding stretchers. Qiu Ge was also on a stretcher, his head wrapped in gauze like a mummy, and he was carefully placed on the ground.

"Is this Xiao Qiu?" Su Tianbei walked to the stretcher and, seeing Qiu Ge unconscious from the anesthetic, quickly asked.

"Yeah, he's unconscious from the anesthetic," Wu Taiyong replied, exhausted.

"Hello, I'm Su Tianbei from the General Administration." Su Tianbei took the initiative to extend his hand. After Wu Taiyong was rescued, the An faction had made his information public, so he recognized the other man: "What's the situation on your side?"

"Hello, I'm Wu Taiyong. Damn it, we suffered heavy losses this time. Many brothers were lost. Many of the people in the extraction team died too. Xiao Qiu almost lost his life." Wu Taiyong shook his hand and couldn't help complaining: "What's wrong with the Huagong Hui (Chinese Work Association)? How could they hide such a big mole? The command work was shit."

"Now is not the time to complain, let's talk about it when we get back," Su Tianbei said. Although he was also unhappy, he was no longer the hothead who would go to the Daquan (Triads) at the first sign of trouble. Right now, the cooperation of the three factions was important, and unity was key.

"Understood."

Wu Taiyong wasn't stupid, he stopped complaining after he had vented.

The two sat on the ground exchanging information while waiting for others. About ten minutes later, the warehouse door opened again.

Wang An walked in with a dozen people from the Huagong Hui.

As soon as he entered, Wu Taiyong immediately went up to him: "Where's my dad?"

"Don't worry, Chairman Wu is fine."

"Then where is he?"

Wu Taiyong was a little anxious: "Is he injured?!"

"Don't get excited, listen to me."

Wang An explained, "On the canal, the ship was spotted by the Fifth Division halfway there, so we split into two groups and arranged a more secret route to send Chairman Wu out. If you're worried, you can call Chairman Wu now."

With that, Wang An took out his phone and made a call.

"Hello?"

Hearing the voice on the other end of the phone, Wu Taiyong couldn't control himself, and tears almost flowed down: "Are you okay? I almost thought that we wouldn't see each other again!"

"You little brat, who told you to mess around outside? Do you know how dangerous this is?!" Old Wu was also concerned about his son, and he started scolding: "I feed you and clothe you, but you don't tell me the truth about anything. You, effeminate, are so brave! I'm telling you, go talk to the people from the General Administration and have them send you to my side immediately...!"

"Okay, I understand, take care of yourself too, we'll be able to meet soon."

The father and son chatted for a few words before hanging up. Su Tianbei was also relieved after knowing that Wu Boxin was safe.

Wang An looked at Su Tianbei: "The pick-up car is waiting outside, Bureau Chief Su, Wu Taiyong, you come with me. Qiu Ge and the more seriously injured will be sent directly to the hospital, we've arranged it...."

The people from the Huagong Hui began to help, applying medicine, carrying people, and everyone left the warehouse one after another to get into the car.

After almost everyone had left, Wang An picked up the phone and contacted his superiors.

"Yes, Secretary-General Li, everything has been arranged... What did you say? Why is it like this? Okay, I understand..."

...

Panama City.

"Is that so? That's good."

Huang Peishan hung up the phone and smiled at the people in the meeting room: "The extraction team at the factory called and said that the three factions have met and are counting the personnel. All the main characters are safe."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this.

Huang Peishan was very excited. With his hands clasped, he said with bright eyes, "Everyone has had a hard time with this matter. When we get back, we must give Gwen and the Central Bureau a hard time. Let's have a bigger celebration party to disgust them, and by the way, reward the brothers below. They've had it tough, we have to show something."

Lu Feng, who had been sitting next to him with his eyes closed to rest, suddenly opened his eyes and glanced at Huang Peishan with a frown.

"That's easy to say."

An Qiqi glanced at Huang Peishan and added softly, "The top priority now is that the matter in Manchester hasn't ended yet, we have to deal with the follow-up events as soon as possible."

"What follow-up events?"

Huang Peishan didn't know if it was because he was getting old or if he wasn't paying attention to Manchester. He was stunned for a moment and asked, "Wu Boxin has been rescued, and our people have all been safely evacuated, what else is there to do?"

"Chairman Huang," Su Tianyu glanced at Old Huang and took over the conversation: "For this rescue plan, my Changqing Company contributed manpower and resources, and suffered a lot of losses. Although we have withdrawn, the local brothers of Changqing Company have lived there for many years, and they can't leave. Moreover, the Manchester police system has arrested many of them, and we have to take the lead in resolving the matter."

"Oh dear, I forgot about this!"

Huang Peishan slapped his thigh: "Yes, Changqing Company has contributed a lot. In this way, you formulate a follow-up plan, and I will fully cooperate. Also, Changqing has suffered personnel losses. Bureau Chief Lu, you do this, you represent our Huagong Hui to talk to the leaders of Changqing Company. After all, this matter was caused by an internal traitor in our company, so we should express our gratitude. You let them come up with a compensation amount, and I will definitely not bargain, representing Changqing Company to comfort the wounded and compensate the families of the sacrificed."

"Then I thank you for them." Hearing this, Lu Feng's expression improved a bit.

"In addition, this time, the great losses caused to everyone are indeed due to my Huagong Hui."

Huang Peishan continued to appease everyone's emotions: "Although the Huagong Hui doesn't want this kind of thing to happen, we will never shirk the responsibilities that we should bear. In this mission, whether it is the General Administration or the An faction, the Huagong Hui will bear all the pensions of all the brothers."

Huang Peishan said this, and no one could find any fault with it.

"Okay, then thank you, Chairman Huang."

Su Tianyu slowly got up: "Then that's it, let's organize our forces, counterattack Manchester, and stab Gwen again!"
