Meeting in a small restaurant near the police station in HeDong’s Central District, Chen Wei had already been anxiously waiting for a long time.

Finally, that tall, strong and muscular Young Man arrived to the appointment. He scratched his head embarra.s.sed, “Chief Chen, apologies. I’m not familiar with the roads and went looking for the wrong place.”

“No matter, the streets of HeDong are already not easy to search.” Chen Wei slightly smiled. “Where’s your partner?”

“She’s on the road. No need to wait for her, she said she already ate,” the Young Man again apologized. Once he received Chen Wei’s call he immediately contacted Yin Long, but instead Yin Long told him that she was in HeDong District, and after eating lunch she would come over.

Chen Wei’s expression was a bit doubtful. “Do you guys not move together?”

The Young Man cracked a smile, “At the moment we haven’t even seen Crimson Scorpion’s shadow, splitting up to look for clues should be a little faster.”

Chen Wei nodded with a seemingly thoughtful manner, then ordered the waiter to come and serve the dishes. It seemed that the guest in front of him was already quite hungry.

After about ten minutes, Ponytail appeared in this little restaurant, and Chen Wei quickly invited her to sit.

The Young Man didn’t react, still eating things in big mouthfuls, and only casually asked, “Were there any clues?”

Ponytail didn’t respond, after sitting down she drank a mouthful of tea and to Chen Wei she said, “Chief Chen, what did you come looking for us for? Does it concern clues of Crimson Scorpion?”

“On the contrary not clues.” Chen Wei said embarra.s.sed.

“Chief Chen, if in the future there aren’t any clues, I think that for the time being there is no need to stay in touch.” Ponytail had no intent to be indirect. “I don’t have any other intentions, just that I hope that my and Qing Long’s ident.i.ties won’t be exposed too early.”

Chen Wei nodded his head, “I know, but this time I came here to speak of an issue. Yesterday we hid it from you, because we weren’t sure.”

The Young Man and Ponytail each raised their heads and looked at Chen Wei.

“Before, I had said that I suspected that a policewoman in my city’s police station had a skilled person backing her. I did a full investigation. The chef of the panacea restaurant she lives at is perhaps that skilled person.” Chen Wei said, “This morning I arranged for Criminal Police Unit members to rent two Audis to follow him, but they were discovered. They had to change their methods so that they weren’t caught. According to many days of me investigating, whether it’s his insight, or his ability to act, as well as his intellectual capacity, all are exceptional abilities.”

The Young Man frowned his brow, “Chief Chen, then do you suspect that person?”

Chen Wei shook his head, “Though there is no suspicion, I just hope that you can acquire his help. I think that perhaps he is someone that can truly control HeDong’s Underworld.”

The Young Man shook his head, “Chief Chen, in matters beyond Crimson Scorpion, we won’t get involved in them. The objective for coming is very clear – if this person isn’t suspected, even if he is someone from the Underworld, we won’t just get involved as we please.”

“That’s not what I meant, I just want to say that guy absolutely isn’t some kind of bad person. If during your investigation of Crimson Scorpion you come across this person, please don’t misread him.” Chen Wei explained that those two Audis following Xu Yun were arranged by the police, but he had no ill intentions, completely wanting to wash suspicion away from Xu Yun.

Chen Wei knew Qing Long and Yin Long were elites arranged from above, that kind of exceptional elites. So he was worried that while they were investigating the Crimson Scorpion case, he was worried they would implicate the person that helped Qin Wan’er achieve several great merits before.

HeDong City having such a secret helping hand to the police was quite beneficial to him, so he didn’t want for something to go wrong.

“I have gone to the panacea restaurant.” Ponytail lightly said.

The Young Man scrunched his brow, “Yin Long, didn’t I tell you before to not recklessly go around!”

Ponytail disagreed. “HeDong is just a city with a population of 5-6 million as just a third-tier city and that is all, why would an elite of the Underworld willing to be here? Thus, even if it’s unrelated to Crimson Scorpion, or even that person, they are sure to have their own unspeakable reasons.”

The Young Man’s fist exploded with blue veins – he truly didn’t know why they arranged for this newcomer to come with him to work. Absolutely ridiculous. He reminisced back to when the boss at the time’s style of handling things, that let things go if they didn’t affect him. A mission was a mission, things beyond the mission absolutely don’t mix.

“No one can prove that he and Crimson Scorpion aren’t the same, that they are both people under Blue Ghost’s faction.” Even though Ponytail’s voice was low, but it was pressuring to the bottom of the heart.

The Young Man’s temples suddenly pulsed, his face carried a serious, angry expression, “Yin Long, you should know what should be said and what shouldn’t be said.”

This time Ponytail didn’t continue arguing, and immediately fell silent.

The Young Man stood up, “Chief Chen, thank you for your well-intentioned heads-up. We absolutely won’t meddle in others’ business. Our mission is just one, our target is Crimson Scorpion. If there are clues to him again relay them to us. We will take our leave.”

Ponytail also followed standing up.

“Then eat before you go.” Chen Wei also stood up. These two people changed very quickly, just now this young man codenamed Qing Long still had a calm expression – why did when Ponytail suddenly mention something about some Blue Ghost, his expression immediately change?

The Young Man politely refused, “Thank you Chief Chen for your hospitality, I have already eaten my fill.”

Without waiting for Chief Chen to again insist, the Young Man and Ponytail had already disappeared from his view, directly getting into the car and quickly leaving.

In the car, Ponytail didn’t speak a word, she already knew she had slipped her tongue. It was after a long time before she spoke up, “Once we get back I’ll write a self-criticism.”

The Young Man expressionlessly said, “I’m not the type that likes to report little things like a tattletale. I won’t report to the higher-ups because of this, so relax.”

“But I’m that kind of person.” Ponytail said without the slightest apologetic tone, “Last night you definitely went to a bar and drank didn’t you? I already reported to the Instructor.”

Dammit! Even reporting every little thing wouldn’t need to be this fast?!

The Young Man nearly wanted to spit out blood. “Did you make a mistake? Didn’t I say before I was just going to get familiar with HeDong City’s streets! Why are you so sure I went to go drink?”

“The positioning of the car.” Ponytail then replied very calmly, “Last night after 10:30 pm, the car was parked at Princess Tree City Road Number 18, until late at 3 in the morning before leaving. I checked, Princess Tree City Road Number 18 is a place called Beautiful Night Bar, I haven’t spoken incorrectly right?”

Vicious! She’d even been watching his position constantly! The Young Man was truly especially speechless about his new partner. If it was Yin Long from before, he absolutely wouldn’t be like this…..a tattletale was even more impossible – he would’ve long gone with him to the bar merrily…..

Ponytail seemed to have heard the voice in the Young Man’s heart. “I’m sorry, I’m not your partner from before, and before coming out the Instructor constantly told me that if you drink, I must report it. The Captain said discipline – if you are undisciplined I will definitely report it.”

The Young Man felt speechless inside, Shadow Dragon that b.a.s.t.a.r.d! The boss had only left for a year, and this grandson truly acted like the head.

“Rookie, I’m telling you, the Dragon Fury Special Combat Unit only has one boss! Even if the boss is gone right now, then he is still an Instructor, still a Captain. You’d best not use Shadow Dragon to pressure me, he doesn’t have what it takes to control this daddy!” The Young Man appeared a bit agitated, and his driving speed unconsciously increased.

Ponytail hadn’t mentioned that she didn’t understand Dragon Fury’s history – she only knew that she was the only female member in the Dragon Fury Special Combat Unit. People in Fury were all apex freak existences – the weakest were in the pinnacle of 2nd-tier elites, people about to break into the realm of 1st-tier elites.

The Dragon Fury Special Combat Unit was the dagger of the Divine Dragon Army. Only the division’s sharpest talents would have a chance to enter Dragon Fury, receiving even more severe and harsh training and even more dangerous and brutal missions.

Ponytail entered the Dragon Fury Special Combat Unit for half a year. The Instructor she knew was Shadow Dragon, the only man in the Dragon Fury Special Combat Unit to stand at the pinnacle of the 9th rank of 1st-tier elites. She also heard of another “boss” from many people’s mouths, even though she had never seen that person, but people of Dragon Fury seemed to not be especially convinced by Shadow Dragon. Very many times they would compare Shadow Dragon and that “boss”.

Being in Dragon Fury for half a year, Ponytail broke through from the 2nd-tier elite into the 1st-tier elite realm, and finally received everyone’s approval. Carrying Yin Long’s t.i.tle, it was said that predecessor of this codename was a martyr of the very top of distinguished military service, so she especially respected this t.i.tle, feeling that this t.i.tle had special honor to it.

After she met Qing Long, she was his partner with the t.i.tle as ‘Yin Long’. Qing Long had sloppy character, and would often argue with Instructors, but each time an Instructor caught him he didn’t break any rules. She was very curious why this kind of person could still stay in Dragon Fury. But once on a team a.s.signment with Qing Long she learned of his terrifying strength – only then did she understand why he would exist within the Dragon Fury Special Combat Unit.

Even though he was a 1st-tier elite, but the difference of her as a 1st-rank 1st-tier elite and Qing Long a 5th-rank 1st-tier elite was nevertheless extreme. Afterwards she no longer rejected this partner, especially when Qing Long’s comrades’ lives were in danger, he would erupt with a terrifying power that she had never imagined.

Perhaps this was a commonality of every member of the Dragon Fury Special Combat Unit. Each and every one of them were like that – they could accept their own deaths, but they absolutely couldn’t accept to watch helplessly as their own comrades fell.

Afterwards she heard from Qing Long’s mouth that the predecessor of the t.i.tle Yin Long, fell while protecting that “boss"” life. Afterwards she was always very shocked, and always wanted to get to know that “boss” they spoke of.

But each time she mentioned this person, Qing Long would always have a bitter smile. Looking up at the sky and talking to himself, he also didn’t know if the boss would still come back here or not.

“Sorry.” Ponytail suddenly spoke, “But I’m already not considered a rookie. You should trust me.”

The Young Man hadn’t thought that she would apologize. With a helpless bitter laugh, “There’s nothing to be sorry for, just that I’m not used to Shadow Dragon’s kind of control. It has nothing to do with you. I won’t let you keep causing side branches from arising, only because Crimson Scorpion absolutely isn’t a good person to mess with, and with your strength you’re absolutely not a match for him. I truly don’t f*cking know why Shadow Dragon would throw this mission onto me. From the start I hadn’t thought of bringing you.”

Ponytail obviously didn’t at all approve, “If I don’t experience this kind of troublesome mission, then I will forever be unable to grow.”

“Ah, you should think, by chance what if you die? The cost of maturing isn’t so simple,” said the Young Man to Ponytail, this reckless rookie who remained quite silent.

However Ponytail said faintly, “People of Dragon Fury can’t look on helplessly as their comrades die. I don’t believe that you will let me die.”

“Tch.” The Young Man snorted disdainfully saying, “That’s your opinion. Do you think that I can fight with my life for just anybody?”

“But I am your partner.” Ponytail said without the slightest bit of being affected.

“I truly can’t stand you.” The Young Man rolled his eyes, “Then you shouldn’t move without permission.”

Ponytail also thinly smiled, and didn’t directly give a reply to the Young Man; could she so easily let go of those things she was determined about? She had to make it clear just what the objective of the elite hiding at the panacea restaurant was.
