Chapter 552: Shattered to Pieces

Chapter 552: Shattered to Pieces (Update 5)

Why is Wang Dong so furious that he resorts to outright insults?

Nothing can be done—he’s always unlucky. Lin.

Team Two is in charge of high-level special cases within the country.

And the case before us is a special incident triggered by gunpowder.

One small slip-up and it blows up into something of astronomical proportions!

What gets under his skin most is that this case was sparked by Xiao Yu, that little brother who leaves chaos in his wake.

Wang Dong suddenly realized.

He felt that Xiao Yu wasn’t just causing random explosions anymore.

He was practically a curse—anything that got too close was doomed.

Trouble was inevitable!

Could Wang Dong really be spouting nonsense?

He had his reasons.

How many times has he witnessed this kind of mess since he met Xiao Yu?

And every incident grew bigger than the last.

Now, Wang Dong couldn’t help but feel regret.

Why on earth did he impulsively hand over a USB drive to Xiao Yu to help with an investigation?

From that point on, an unbreakable bond was formed that dragged him into endless misfortune!

“For heaven’s sake, can we just keep things calm?”

Seeing his little brother board the helicopter, Wang Dong, on the verge of tears, lamented, “Bro, I won’t last many more years—give it another ten and I’d be retiring. At this rate, I won’t even make it to retirement; I’ll be haunted to death!”

“Aren’t you that four-dimensional, beautiful warrior girl?”

Xiao Yu rolled his eyes and told the pilot, “F City!”

“What do you mean?” Wang Dong asked, utterly confused.

He often found it hard to understand the constant barrage of nonsense from his little brother.

“It means…”

Xiao Yu threw up his hands. “Don’t waste your breath arguing with unrefined people. It’s like wrestling pigs—winning isn’t glorious, and losing is downright embarrassing.”

Wang Dong: ……

He threatened, “If you can’t beat me, believe me when I say I’ll knock you out cold!”

“What’s wrong with pigs?”

Wang Dong shrugged, “Humans eat pork every day, don’t they?”

“That’s right.”

Xiao Yu chuckled, “Pigs think like pigs, and people think like people. If pigs thought like humans, they wouldn’t be pigs anymore. Right… Bajie?”

Wang Dong: ……

“I’m not angry; I’m civilized.”

I won’t stoop to the level of someone lacking class.

Huh, why aren’t you biting? When did you get so smart… Seeing Wang Dong fall silent, Xiao Yu smiled and shook his head, “It’s still unclear if it’s from the Ordnance Factory; being close doesn’t always mean it is.”

“Don’t kid around.”

Wang Dong gave a bitter smile, “There’s no such thing as pure coincidence in this world… That phrase is all thanks to you!”

But what Xiao Yu truly taught him wasn’t that phrase.

It was the meaning behind it.

“Though coincidences are rare, nothing is ever absolute.”

Xiao Yu’s expression turned serious. “Let’s first figure out where the gun came from.”

Compared to the issues of the gun and gunpowder, the shooting victim no longer mattered.

Aren’t lives at stake?

If the heavens were to fall, would you still be concerned about life?

Besides, the victim had just been saved—he was in the special care ward.

There was no way to get a confession anytime soon; detaining him was pointless.

“It’s up to you,” he remarked.

A resigned Wang Dong mumbled, “Just a heads-up: if we decide to dig into the Ordnance Factory, you’ll have to provide a clear account.”

Xiao Yu understood that.

There are some matters you can’t force an investigation on.

When the inquiry really begins, if you don’t come up with an explanation,

they’ll end up giving you one!

“What am I afraid of?”

Xiao Yu snorted, “I’ll toss you out to take the hit first. If you can’t handle it, I’ll throw Zhou Lie in your place. After all, he’s a former Special Forces guy who once served in the military. And if that still isn’t enough…”

“Hey, hey! We’re supposed to be comrades-in-arms. How can you sell me out without a second thought?”

Wang Dong chuckled bitterly, “What, you think you can even throw Big Boss out to take the hit?”

“Are you kidding me? Are you trying to school me on how to do my job?” Xiao Yu shot Wang Dong an icy glare.

He knew all too well that both of them were in the same boat—neither could escape.

Wang Dong’s remark was a subtle warning.

If we can avoid stirring up the Ordnance Factory, it’s best we do so.

Even a trial run there could be fatal!

……

Seven hours later.

After two refuelings, the helicopter landed in F City.

Xiao Yu and Wang Dong, now in National Security uniforms, walked into the City Bureau Building in F City.

The two National Security team leaders were personally greeted by F City’s Da Ju, the deputy director of the City Bureau.

“No need for formalities,” he said.

Wang Dong stated gravely, “We’re looking for someone—Kuang Mincai, 39, nicknamed Wolf Brother, a native of F City… and we need to find him fast!”

And quick they were—within thirty minutes.

Boom!

The door of a residence was smashed open by SWAT as they stormed in like a pack of wild beasts.

Kuang Mincai leaped out of bed, clueless about what was happening,

only to be struck by two batons that sent him crashing to the floor.

Then five or six rifles were trained on him, leaving Kuang Mincai trembling in sheer terror, nearly losing control of himself.

Criminal psychology teaches that the more misdeeds one commits, the greater the inner fear becomes, and the thinner one’s psychological defenses get. It’s a hidden disorder—sudden terror can even lead to a complete loss of bodily control!

In plain terms: if you do no wrong, you have nothing to fear!

Thirty minutes later.

After a quick cleanup, Kuang Mincai—wearing nothing but a pair of oversized boxers—was brought before Xiao Yu.

“Do you recognize him?”

Xiao Yu pulled out a photo of the suspect, Ge Jun, and held it up in front of Kuang Mincai.

Upon seeing the photo, Kuang Mincai’s face turned pale with terror, yet he said nothing.

Bang!

A baton smashed into his lower abdomen.

Even his overnight meal was splattered out.

“Do you know why I’m here?”

Xiao Yu glared at the vomiting Kuang Mincai. “Do you think I’m here because you ordered Ge Jun to kill someone? Think again. I’m after that pistol. As for hiring hitmen, we’ll discuss it later. Now, tell me—how did that pistol end up with you?”

Pistol… Kuang Mincai, looking ashen and bewildered, lifted his head.

He was genuinely confused.

Why would a pistol matter more than murder itself?

Bang!

Another baton struck Kuang Mincai’s face, knocking him to the ground.

“I really don’t have time to waste on you,”

Xiao Yu slowly crouched in front of the trembling Kuang Mincai, his eyes as cold as ice. “You’ve pushed fate too far. Do you know what happens when the heavens come crashing down?”

Kuang Mincai shivered in dread.

“What do you think happens when the heavens fall?”

Shattered to pieces!
