That night, Su Tianyu led everyone to the inner harbor, called Da Bai, who knew the ropes, found a place with reasonable prices, and partied until four or five in the morning, making sure all his colleagues from the unit were well taken care of.

...

The next day, a little after ten in the morning, Su Tianyu got up and went to the association, finding Yu Mingyuan.

Inside the office, Su Tianyu recounted the events of Zhang Tao Tao inviting them to dinner, one by one.

After listening, Yu Mingyuan thought carefully for a few minutes before proactively asking what Li Mingsheng's side thought about it.

Su Tianyu sat upright in the chair, crossed his hands, and replied, "Zhang Tao Tao's words hinted at the mineral resources. I told the leader about this, and he said we could make contact."

As soon as Yu Mingyuan heard this, he immediately replied, "Then let's ask this woman out for a chat. How about this, call her back tomorrow night."

"You go talk to her. I'm not free tomorrow night; I have to work." Su Tianyu said flatteringly, "You're the chairman, our spiritual leader. I can't always steal your work."

"Get lost." Yu Mingyuan cursed with a dismissive look, crossing his legs and asking, "You... did you really win over my sister?"

"Are you talking about that younger sister? Wa Wa?" Su Tianyu replied with a cheap grin.

Upon hearing this, Yu Mingyuan picked up a cushion from the chair and hit Su Tianyu on the head, "You want to double-kill? I'll beat you to death!"

"Hehe!" Su Tianyu grinned, "No matter who I win over, you'll be my brother-in-law in the future!! Right?"

Yu Mingyuan sighed helplessly, "Alright, I don't have a better choice."

"Haha!"

The two smiled at each other.

Around noon, Yu Mingyuan went out to handle some matters, and Su Tianyu also planned to go to his second uncle's house to visit and freeload a meal.

Leaving the main building, Su Tianyu walked towards the gate with his car keys. On the way, he saw the old watchman at the gatehouse and casually asked, "Busy, Uncle You!"

Inside the gatehouse, Uncle You replied while wearing his reading glasses, "Reading the newspaper. Are you off work?"

"Yeah, I'm going home." Su Tianyu replied with a smile as he walked by, "Uncle You, make some more braised beef when you have time, I'm craving it."

"Alright," the old man nodded.

"I'm leaving!"

"Drive safe!" the old man shouted and continued reading the newspaper.

...

The next day at 4:30 PM, Typhoon Hailan made landfall in Dragon City, and the entire city was shrouded in strong winds and heavy rain.

Su Tianyu arrived at his unit on time, changed into his police uniform, then went to the cafeteria with his colleagues for dinner, and began his official duty.

Because the weather outside was bad, tonight's shift was very easy. He didn't have to patrol or do any work; he just had to stay in the office and keep an eye on the emergency calls. If nothing happened, he could sleep in the second half of the night.

After eating his fill, Su Tianyu sat at his desk, bored, and started flirting with An Qiqi.

These two were also quite interesting. They had almost tacitly agreed on a romantic relationship, but they just wouldn't admit it, enjoying that tickling kind of interaction.

Sitting in his chair, Su Tianyu supported his chin with his left hand, skillfully edited a text message, and sent it to An Qiqi.

"Whatcha doin'?"

On an island near New City, An Qiqi was drinking coffee, wearing black-rimmed glasses, sitting in front of the computer organizing a work report.

"Beep beep!"

The phone rang. An Qiqi picked it up, a smile appearing on her face, and immediately replied, "Contemplating the ultimate mysteries of the universe!"

"Ah, I'm so damn scared."

"What's wrong? Baby?" An Qiqi asked.

"I'm on a mission today, staking out six smuggling murderers. There are only five of us, and it's pouring rain outside. I think they might have spotted us. Damn, reinforcements haven't arrived yet... I'm so scared!" Su Tianyu started to bluff.

"Damn?! Is your leader a pig? Sending five people to stake out six murderers? Will you be in danger?"

"I don't know, there might be a gunfight in a bit!! This place is in the outer suburbs, no way to stop it, nowhere to run if it really kicks off. I'm really nervous."

"Then what should you do?! Should you hide first?" An Qiqi was really anxious. "Catching criminals isn't worth risking your life."

"...I'm very scared, and I want to make a small request, I don't know if you can grant it."

"What is it?"

"I don't want to have any regrets. Can you show me... your two steamed buns?"

"You stinky idiot, blocked!!"

"Haha!" Su Tianyu looked at An Qiqi's reply and laughed shamelessly.

Whether it was the will of heaven or Su Tianyu's jinxing mouth, just as he was laughing like an idiot, two faint gunshots suddenly came from outside.

The sound wasn't loud, so the other colleagues in the office didn't notice, but Su Tianyu was a soldier, and he was very sensitive to that sound!

"Gunshots!" Su Tianyu stood up with a jerk.

"What gunshots?!" A colleague turned around and asked.

"There are gunshots outside!" Su Tianyu put down his phone and replied, "Sounds like it's right next to us!"

"No way, it might be thunder!"

"It's gunshots!" Hou Guoyu, who was also on duty today, stood up and said, "Not far from us!"

"Bang bang bang...!"

Just as they were talking, intense gunshots came from outside again. Although the sound wasn't very loud, everyone else could hear it clearly.

"It should be over in the inner harbor," a colleague next to him replied. "They're shooting...!"

"Ring ring ring!"

Before he could finish speaking, the emergency call rang.

"Hello?!" Su Tianyu picked up the microphone, "Coast Guard Duty Room!"

"There's a gunfight on Sancha Street along the coast!! A bunch of people are shooting with guns! There are casualties!" The person reporting the incident on the phone said in a heavy tone.

"Sancha Street?!"

"Next to Tianfeng Supermarket!"

"Don't hang up, someone will connect with you soon." Su Tianyu put the microphone aside, "Let's get dressed, we got a job!"

"Damn, what bad luck, having to go out in this weather!" A colleague put down his poker cards and ran into the armory.

...

Two minutes later.

The on-duty team gathered, braved the heavy rain, got into the car, and headed to the scene of the incident.

On the way, sporadic gunshots were still ringing out, and the direction was very scattered.

In a dark alley, a young man, blood spurting from his shoulder, supported a companion, holding a gun and saying, "Yangzi, Yangzi, hold on... hold on, I'll get you out!"

"Can't... can't get out. The port's closed, the shooting... we're going to be trapped... You go yourself!"

"Don't panic, don't panic, I have friends in Dragon City...!"
