This outcome left many people utterly shocked.

Take, for instance, this young gang leader. He is now truly on the verge of tears...

He had brought so many of his underlings out to slash someone, and now the intended victim was standing right in front of him, but his underlings had run off to chase some schmuck who popped out of nowhere.

Then there's Police Flower Sister, who also wore a blank expression, utterly clueless about what kind of play was unfolding.

"Qin Fang… what exactly is going on?"

Not knowing the situation, it was natural for her to ask, whether from her professional standpoint or as Qin Fang's friend—she needed to know.

"I'm not too sure myself. These gangsters seemed to be coming at me, but this Roddick guy looked a bit guilty, so I just yelled, and he ran off..."

Qin Fang shrugged his shoulders, his tone innocent.

As he spoke, a mischievous smile hung on his face—it was clear he was struggling to hold back a laugh.

Roddick is a professional swindler. Qin Fang knew this, but he couldn't say it outright, only hinting at it to Police Flower Sister. Whether she caught on or not wasn't something Qin Fang could decide.

"You… you're really awful!"

Listening to Qin Fang's explanation, Police Flower Sister had a look of exasperation, unsure how to reprimand Qin Fang properly.

She was a witness to the whole ordeal, now understanding the cause and effect, albeit puzzled why Roddick had fled so frantically—but she didn't overthink it, considering it a normal reaction.

However, she was quite speechless about Qin Fang's way of trapping people… But thinking back on the entire situation, it seemed genuinely hilarious.

As for Roddick's safety, Police Flower Sister wasn't too worried. It was broad daylight with police patrolling everywhere and Roddick was fast enough to likely be rescued by the police before the gangsters could catch up.

No matter why Roddick had fled so desperately, compared to how Qin Fang faced bullets and danger without flinching just yesterday, the contrast became immediately apparent.

Perhaps she never had much interest in Roddick from the start, and now it was even less likely. If her parents brought it up again, she would definitely use this incident to argue her point.

Facing these gangsters he had to run, and if faced with armed villains wielding knives and guns, wouldn't he just run as far as possible? How could he protect her?

"What about him then?"

Things had progressed to this point, turning into an established fact, impossible to change. Hearing Police Flower Sister's "you're so bad" remark, Qin Fang just smiled nonchalantly and, saying nothing definite, pointed at the gang leader kneeling before him.

If Qin Fang was alone, he could've dealt with this fellow in a few hits, but with Police Flower Sister present, it wasn't appropriate.

"I'll call a colleague to take over…"

Looking at the sorry figure of the gang leader, Police Flower Sister pulled out her cellphone and made a call. She was off-duty now, not in uniform, and naturally didn't need to work.

Moreover, she wanted to spend more time with Qin Fang and naturally didn't wish to appear at the police station.

Unfortunately, her desire was still unmet.

Due to the arrival of these gangsters and the quickly arriving police, Uncle Xing and his wife at the teahouse noticed the commotion below. Although unclear about what was happening, they still called Police Flower Sister away.

Meanwhile, Qin Fang naturally returned alone to his hotel.

Back at the hotel, Qin Fang entered his room alone and took out his special computer from the Assassin's Alliance. He accessed information about Han Long through the Assassin's transaction platform.

Little did Qin Fang know that a check would truly give him quite a scare.

Han Long was no ordinary person. Born a Thai citizen of Chinese descent, he was a compatriot of Qin Fang. Yet, his identity was complex; he was a notorious drug lord in Southeast Asia, closely linked with the Golden Triangle.

He also had extremely close ties with the underworld in Hong Kong Island, Little Island, and even Japan. Basically, the drugs in these places all flowed through his hands into their respective territories.

In this regard, one could call him a secondary dealer, but he was an exceptionally formidable one. Interpol had been pursuing him for nearly ten years and finally arrested him on Hong Kong Island just a year ago.

After a year of preparation and numerous court hearings, just as the final verdict was about to be delivered yesterday, during the transport to the court, a group of mercenaries appeared. With overwhelming firepower, they annihilated the armed police escorting him and rescued Han Long…

This rescue operation was nearly flawless… The only oversight, perhaps, was not anticipating Qin Fang's involvement.

Or rather, if it weren't for Qin Fang's involvement, that group of mercenaries might have easily rescued Han Long and then disappeared without a trace as if they had never been there.

In that case, even the Hong Kong police and Interpol would have had no leads on which Mercenary Group was behind this act.

But because of Qin Fang's interference, the mercenary group was exposed, especially since they left behind six corpses, including one high-ranking leader who could not go unrecognized…

It's said that Interpol has already issued a warrant, actively seeking these mercenaries. Upon discovery, they are to be arrested immediately… or even killed on sight!

Given the scale of the incident, which resulted in the deaths of over a dozen armed policemen from Hong Kong and four Interpol agents guarding Han Long, it's no wonder the police were enraged.

For the moment, the police are keeping a tight lid on this case. Capturing Han Long was initially a high-profile success for them, but now that he has escaped—especially since he had publicly vowed revenge against the officers who captured him—the concerns are high.

The reason Uncle Xing turned pale upon hearing of Han Long's escape was partly due to concerns for his daughter Xing Jingjing's safety, and also because Han Long happened to be the last criminal he captured before retirement.

In this past year, Uncle Xing closely followed the trial of Han Long. Unexpectedly, just as Han Long was about to be officially sentenced and imprisoned, he was rescued—rendering all of Uncle Xing's efforts throughout the year utterly futile… not to mention all the police officers who had died over the years trying to apprehend Han Long.

Qin Fang knew it was Uncle Xing who had captured Han Long, because amongst the information about Han Long, there was a photo taken at the time of his arrest, and Uncle Xing's face was clearly visible in it, though not in close-up, but still quite near to Han Long.

All these weren't Qin Fang's main concerns. What made Qin Fang frown was a simple description of Han Long's personality in the information—it highlighted that Han Long was exceedingly brutal and vengeful with a strong propensity for retaliation!

The document also listed some of the dreadful acts Han Long had committed, which were enough to send shivers down one's spine.

Being a drug lord controlling many channels in Southeast Asia naturally involved the interests of many people, especially competitors.

For instance, General Santo, a well-known warlord from Anlang Country bordering the south of the Dragon Country, also dealt in the drug trade. He was not only involved in planting but wanted to establish his own channels to sell these drugs.

Given the drug routes in that region were monopolized by Han Long, this caused severe conflicts between the two. General Santo, relying on his authority as Anlang Country's warlord and commanding military power, did not take Han Long seriously… even killing one of Han Long's men, who had been sent to warn him, with a gunshot.

During the negotiations, he even tried to force Han Long to relinquish control of all drug channels to him using military power, so that he could self-produce and self-market, thereby earning more money.

However, before he could fire his gun, he received devastating news—his headquarters had been raided by a group of mercenaries.

Not only that, all his wives and children fell into the hands of these mercenaries, many of whom were brutally violated before being mercilessly executed.

Furious, General Santo, knowing it was Han Long's doing, almost immediately tried to kill Han Long in revenge for his family, but his most trusted subordinate shot him in the back.

In the end, anyone remotely related to General Santo died violently, leaving no survivors. As for General Santo himself, he was flayed alive by Han Long, who then let him die slowly in agony… even exposing his body for three days after his death!

Such brutal methods suggest just how merciless Han Long could be.

And this was just one of the many stories of Han Long. Many who betrayed him, deceived him, or even cheated him, regardless of whether they fled to Europe or the Americas, none could escape their grim fates…

Understanding this background, Qin Fang could somewhat grasp why Uncle Xing had such a reaction upon hearing the news of Han Long's escape.

Given Han Long's strong vengeful nature, now that he had escaped, retaliation was likely to follow—especially since Uncle Xing had been the one to catch him.

Not to mention, Han Long's rescue plan was nearly thwarted due to the relationship with Police Flower Sister, which only intensified his deep-seated hatred towards the Xing Family… (To be continued.
