Soon, a person rushed over.
Carrying a briefcase, he held a piece of paper that seemed particularly important.
Upon seeing the uniformed man at the dock, he immediately opened it and handed it to him.
"See? This is a search warrant, officially certified by the Hua Xia Nation! Now, can we go in?"
The captain said forcefully.
He thought that Old Wu would back down upon seeing this, but Old Wu paid no attention.
He snatched the search warrant and "Zzzt" tore it to shreds!
"You! Damn it!"
The uniformed man was enraged by him, unable to maintain his composure any longer, and cursed.
"I tore it. What are you going to do about it? Let me tell you, today, if I say you can't enter, you can't enter!"
Old Wu was extremely defiant, utterly disregarding the search warrant.
Having stayed on the island for so long, he knew that these warrants, in the end, were less about formality and more about actual influence.
As long as there was money, those tokens were just scrap paper.
Furthermore, the boss had instructed that today was a special day. Apart from searching for evidence, no other unauthorized personnel were allowed to enter Red Island.
After just finishing the search of the west side of Red Island, he heard from his subordinates that something had happened at the dock, and he had to rush over immediately.
Upon seeing the situation, it looked like a full-scale raid!
However, he had seen much larger demonstrations over the years.
Including one time when the entire island was surrounded, heavily armed.
Those situations were all resolved with just a single phone call from the boss.
This current scene couldn't even compare to that.
There were many people, but they were all unarmed, posing no threat.
Although the island didn't have many formidable weapons, they did have a few guns, which they wouldn't use unless absolutely necessary.
"You! How dare you!"
The captain roared, pointing at Old Wu, his finger trembling!
He had executed so many missions, yet this was the first time he had encountered such a clueless fellow.
Without further ado, he directly tore the search warrant. Such arrogance was enough to warrant execution ten times over.
According to the laws of the Hua Xia Nation, it was a blasphemy against the dignity of the law and punishable by death!
"How dare I not? It's just a piece of paper. How much are you offering? I'll tear as many as you give me!"
Old Wu said provocatively.
What a joke, was this the time to just search as one pleased?
"Fine! You've got guts. Let's see how I deal with you later!"
"Damn it, what did you say?"
Before Old Wu could reply, a tall man beside him cursed at the captain.
The captain, startled, quickly retreated a few steps. "You wait, you just wait..."
As he spoke, he shakily picked up his phone and dialed.
This time, he turned on the speakerphone, seemingly intending for Old Wu to hear the conversation.
"Leader, they tore up our search warrant!"
"What? Have they eaten the heart of a leopard and the gall of a bear?"
"Yes, yes, yes! And the person in charge completely disregards us, refusing to let us in! He even said... he even said the search warrant is useless scrap paper, good for nothing!"
The captain added fuel to the fire.
"Damn it, how arrogant! Make him wait and see if it's really scrap paper!"
With that, the call ended with a beep.
The captain smirked, took a few steps back, but did not leave the dock.
Old Wu ignored him, still sitting defiantly at the entrance.
"See? Look how arrogant they are. No wonder people say 'Peach Blossom Spring' is a country within a country!"
Zhao Qiansun said indignantly, looking at the scene before him.
Liu San Dao remained silent, quietly observing the dock.
Before long, several boats approached the dock!
Soldiers armed with guns appeared on the dock.
The newcomer was a man around forty years old, with a small mustache.
"Boss, it's him. He completely disregards the search warrant!"
The captain pointed at Old Wu and said to the mustached man.
"Hmph! Guards, bind him!"
The mustached man was indeed not to be trifled with.
"Damn it, who dares?"
Old Wu was not to be outdone and shouted directly.
"Hmph! You think I don't dare? How dare you defy the law of the land! Guards, bring out the guns!"
"Bah! Do you have guns and we don't? Guards, bring out the weapons!"
Old Wu shouted into the compound.
Within minutes, several people carrying guns emerged from inside.
Seeing this, the mustached man became a little anxious.
This was the first time he had encountered such a tough adversary, one who dared to openly challenge the authorities!
"Hmph! You have great courage. Guards, surround them!"
The mustached man said, taking a few steps back, then ordering the soldiers to cordon off the dock.
However, to be safe, he quickly made a call: "Send reinforcements, as many as possible, bring guns! The criminals are armed!"
After hanging up, he sneered in Old Wu's direction with a smile.
The entire Hua Xia Nation was a gun-prohibited area. Private possession of firearms and ammunition was strictly forbidden.
This offense alone was enough to warrant a death sentence.
But he also understood that for an organization like "Peach Blossom Spring," a few guns were not a significant threat.
"Let me tell you, you'd better step aside quickly, or when the main force arrives, you'll be in serious trouble!"
The mustached man spoke, with a hint of triumph in his tone.
"Brother, this is bad, they're bringing... Oh no, shouldn't we call the boss?"
The situation was extremely urgent. Although Old Wu had seen major events, if they were truly surrounded, things would become troublesome.
He had initially thought he could intimidate them and that the subsequent matters would be easily handled with some money spent by the boss.
Given the island's connections, this wouldn't be difficult.
"Yes, alright! I'll make a call. You stand guard here!"
Old Wu said, getting up and walking towards the back of the door.
"What? How many people have arrived! Don't act rashly. I'll be there immediately!"
On the phone, Shu Xiaoxin sounded very anxious.
Within minutes, Shu Xiaoxin appeared at the entrance.
"Oh! What happened to Old Wu? What's going on?"
Shu Xiaoxin asked feigning surprise.
"Boss, it's them. They say they're here to search and brought a useless search warrant! I tore it up!"
Old Wu said, pointing at the mustached man and his group.
"Ai ya! I told you to study, but you wouldn't listen! Now look, you even dared to tear up a search warrant! Do you still have any regard for the law!"
Shu Xiaoxin said in a smooth-talking manner, walking towards the mustached man.
He took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, lit one, and offered it.
"Brother, it's a misunderstanding, all a misunderstanding! Old Wu is uneducated and has no brains. Please don't take offense! However, I need to ask what you're here to search for today. Tell me, so I can be mentally prepared!"
