Chapter 155
　　At 7:30 in the evening, the entire Dragon City had fallen into chaos.

　　In every district, almost every street was filled with protesters, and the city's streets and alleys echoed with the intermittent sound of gunfire.

　　Shops and restaurants along the streets were closed, and ordinary people didn't dare to go out at all, hiding at home watching the news and various related live broadcasts, enduring anxiety and fear.

　　At the same time, several military vehicles were speeding along a street. This street was relatively remote, but the shouts and gunfire could still be heard in the distance.

　　Sitting in the car, Shang Shixun looked anxious and spoke urgently into the phone, "Dad, we definitely have a mole here! We weren't fully prepared, and Gu Baisun has already cleared the board as soon as we started! The situation is a bit out of control. We can only wait for the actions of the First District's outer forces! Get ready. I'm coming to pick you up now. We have to hide. If it doesn't work, we'll have to find a way to get out of the city!"

　　The person Shang Shixun was contacting was his father, Shang Yao, the former director of the Dragon City Police Department.

　　At this moment, Shang Yao was in Dragon City Prison. Since Su Tianyu took him down last time, he had been spared death thanks to the efforts of Wang Changli and other senior officials from the administrative faction, but he had been under house arrest.

　　Due to the short amount of time, Shang Yao's case had not yet been fully judged, but considering his special status, he was transferred to Dragon City Prison in advance for "house arrest."

　　After all, he had once been a meritorious official, and politicians had to maintain appearances. So, even though he was in Dragon City Prison, he was confined to a separate small building. The room was fully furnished, very clean, and there were even people to take care of Shang Yao's life.

　　During this time, Shang Yao had been very low-key, just drinking tea and watching the news every day.

　　Shang Yao didn't say a word. There was silence on the phone. Shang Shixun tugged at his collar irritably. According to his original plan, he wanted to wait for Dragon City to rise and become completely chaotic, and then smoothly get his father out of prison with the help of a large number of his own people inside.

　　But he never expected that before the commotion even started, Gu Baisun had already carried out a ruthless cleanup, putting him in a difficult situation and turning all his previous plans into bubbles.

　　Why hadn't he gotten his father out earlier?

　　It was simple. If Shang Yao had disappeared from the prison before, then with the series of events that followed, Dragon City would have immediately identified the Shang family as the mole.

　　So, this was a gamble, although it was a big risk. But for Shang Yao, who was already under house arrest, and the entire Shang family, which was being suppressed, this risk was obviously acceptable.

　　Shang Yao sat in the bedroom, thought for a long time, and then slowly said into the phone, "You don't need to come, and don't let anyone come to pick me up. Whoever you send to pick me up now will be harmed. Gu Baisun can clear the board completely, which means they've already locked onto us."

　　Shang Shixun was taken aback and quickly said, "Dad..."

　　Shang Yao interrupted him, "Don't worry, listen to me. You go to the garrison now and find the person I told you to contact before. He will arrange things for you. Next, don't be impatient or worry about me. Just wait for the results of the First District's military control over Dragon City. Lao Tan hasn't made a statement yet. Dragon City is full of variables. Temporary gains and losses don't determine anything. We still have a chance."

　　Shang Shixun was going crazy with anxiety, "But..."

　　Shang Yao interrupted again, "Alright, Xiao Xun, I'm already a useless person. There won't be a worse situation than this. Don't worry about me. Do as I say."

　　Shang Shixun gritted his teeth, clenched his fists, and after a long silence, finally squeezed out a word from between his teeth, "Okay..."

　　The two hung up the phone. Shang Shixun turned to the driver and ordered the convoy to head towards the garrison.

　　...

　　Half an hour later, Dragon City Coastal Road.

　　The entire road had quieted down. A large number of military vehicles were parked around, clearing the scene.

　　In one of the military vehicles, Gu Baisun, who had just finished dealing with the Fucang District incident, was holding a walkie-talkie and asking about the situation in the other five districts.

　　"Ding Ling Ling!"

　　At this moment, a burst of urgent phone ringing sounded. Gu Baisun picked it up and glanced at it, discovering that it was Guo Zhengdao calling. He immediately answered the phone, "Hello?"

　　Guo Zhengdao immediately said, "Director Gu, I have a situation here."

　　Gu Baisun frowned and asked, "What situation?"

　　Guo Zhengdao explained, "Originally, I wanted to let the line out, wait for him to contact more people, and lure out the prison side. Unexpectedly, Shang Shixun suddenly changed course halfway and didn't go to find his father."

　　Gu Baisun thought for a moment and asked, "Do you know where he went now?"

　　"I know." Guo Zhengdao's tone was somewhat hesitant, "It's just... this place is a bit tricky."

　　Gu Baisun pressed, "How is it tricky?"

　　Guo Zhengdao said in a serious tone, "He went to the military inspection department compound under the garrison headquarters."

　　Hearing this place, Gu Baisun couldn't help but be stunned. This military inspection department was a relatively core department in the garrison system. He had already guessed that someone from the garrison was involved in this matter, but he didn't expect the relationship to be so deep.

　　Guo Zhengdao couldn't make up his mind either, so he asked, "Director Gu, what do we do next?"

　　After pondering for a long time, Gu Baisun said, "Then don't touch him for now, and don't try to take it by force. Just maintain close surveillance, keep a close eye on all the exits of the military inspection department compound, and don't let Shang Shixun take the opportunity to escape."

　　Guo Zhengdao immediately replied, "Understood. I'll arrange for people to keep an eye on it."

　　"Everything that should be done has been done..." Gu Baisun looked out the window and said slowly, "We need to wait for a result now."

　　Guo Zhengdao was stunned, "Wait for what result?"

　　"Wait for the result from the border line," Gu Baisun explained. "I think Shang Shixun should also be waiting for this result."

　　"Understood, then I'll go make arrangements first."

　　"Okay, go ahead, and be careful."

　　After the two finished speaking, they hung up the phone.

　　Gu Baisun thought for a moment, turned to the driver and said, "Drive to the administrative building. I want to see Mayor Li."

　　"Yes."

　　The driver nodded and started the car.

　　Several military vehicles immediately followed behind, protecting Gu Baisun's safety.

　　Inside the car, Gu Baisun thought for a moment and dialed another number.

　　The phone was quickly connected, and An Zecheng's voice rang out, "Hello?"

　　Gu Baisun asked directly, "General An, the city is temporarily under my control now, but it's just a temporary appearance. Whether there will be any more movements completely depends on the results of the border line!"

　　An Zecheng said without hesitation, "The results here will be coming soon. I received definite news that the First District's First Army has moved!"

　　Gu Baisun nodded, "Okay, I'll wait for your news."

　　The two ended the call.

　　...

　　Dragon City border line. Tan Mingchao, wearing a military uniform, was sitting in a military vehicle, speeding towards the garrison's defense zone!
