Chapter 567: Surrender Obediently
Lu Yining stared at the mysterious waiter in front of her, feeling a mixture of emotions. She knew that this seemingly ordinary young man must be hiding a secret, but at the same time, he might be the key to solving the whole case.
"Tell me first, what do you know?" Lu Yining asked in a deep voice, with unquestionable majesty in his tone.
The other party nodded slightly, as if he had made up his mind. "My name is Li Hao... No, I used to be Li Hao. I'm their spy now, but in reality, I'm just a small-time character forced into this situation." He paused, a hint of determination flashing in his eyes. "I can help you find the real mastermind, but the prerequisite is that you must protect my safety."
"How do you prove that what you said is true?" Sheng Nanting couldn't help but interrupt, his eyes full of suspicion.
"I can provide some intelligence," Li Hao said. "For example, the true identity of that middle-aged man. His name is Zhang Zhiyuan, and he's a very powerful figure in this city. He uses various means to control many illegal activities, including drug trafficking and black market smuggling. I've met him several times and even know some of his secret hideouts."
Lu Yining looked thoughtful after hearing this. He turned around and looked at the other team members, signaling them to remain vigilant. "Your information is very important to us, but we must also make sure that you are telling the truth. Do you have any evidence?"
Li Hao nodded and took out a mobile phone from his pocket: "These are the videos and photos I secretly took when I was under Zhang Zhiyuan's command. They can be used as evidence."
Lu Yining took the phone and examined it carefully. The video showed a scene in a luxurious villa, where several suspicious people were discussing something, and one of them was the mysterious middle-aged man - Zhang Zhiyuan.
"It seems you do have some useful information," Lu Yining said, "We will ensure your safety, but you must fully cooperate with our investigation."
At this moment, hurried footsteps sounded, and a police officer rushed over: "Captain, we just received a report that someone found a large number of suspicious items in a high-rise building in the city center. They might be explosives!"
Lu Yining frowned, turned to Li Hao and said, "Come with us to the scene, we will arrange for someone to protect you."
The group quickly set off for the city center. The atmosphere was extremely tense along the way. Upon arriving at the scene, Lu Yining and his team quickly sprang into action, evacuating the crowd and conducting a preliminary investigation.
"It's too dangerous here, everyone must be careful." Lu Yining reminded.
"Yeah, these guys are really crazy." Lin Yao added.
At this time, several onlookers began to discuss:
"These terrorists are so arrogant! They actually dared to place a bomb in the city center!"
"Fortunately, the police arrived in time, otherwise who knows what would have happened!"
"That female police officer is so amazing, she's like a hero!"
Lu Yining and his team quickly entered the building and began to carefully check every floor. Just then, a figure suddenly appeared behind them: "You guys are really fast, but you almost caught me."
Turning around, I saw the middle-aged man again - Zhang Zhiyuan, with a smug smile still on his face.
"This time, I won't let you escape again!" Lu Yining said coldly.
"Haha, you think you can catch me like this? Too naive." Zhang Zhiyuan laughed, then quickly disappeared into the stairwell.
"Damn it, he ran away again!" Lu Yining said angrily.
"Let's chase them!" Sheng Nanting shouted.
At this moment, Li Hao suddenly said: "Wait, I know where he might be hiding, follow me!"
Lu Yining hesitated for a moment, but quickly decided to trust Li Hao for once. The three of them quickly followed Li Hao to a hidden basement entrance.
"This is one of his secret hiding places, and there may be more evidence hidden inside." Li Hao said.
Lu Yining pushed the door open and walked in cautiously. He saw that the room was filled with various suspicious items, including weapons, drugs and some unknown documents.
"This is what we are looking for!" Lin Yao said excitedly.
Just as they were about to conduct further searches, they heard light footsteps in the distance. They immediately became alert and quickly dispersed.
"It seems that we are not the only ones here." Lu Yining said in a low voice.
As the footsteps get closer, a new showdown is about to begin. What kind of test will the mysterious middle-aged man bring to them? Everything gradually unfolds under the cover of night...
"No matter what, we must catch him today!" Lu Yining said firmly, leading the team to prepare for the next more difficult challenge. Li Hao stared nervously at the hidden basement entrance, beads of sweat oozing from his forehead. He took a deep breath, as if trying to overcome the fear in his heart. "After you go in, you must be careful," he whispered, "Those people under Zhang Zhiyuan are all desperate criminals."
Lu Yining nodded, signaling the team members to remain vigilant. Sheng Nanting gently patted Lin Yao's shoulder and encouraged her: "We can definitely catch him and put an end to this."
The three of them carefully entered the basement, illuminating every corner of the darkness with their flashlights. The basement was filled with various suspicious items, including weapons, drugs, and some unidentified documents.
"These things can prove Zhang Zhiyuan's guilt!" Lin Yao said excitedly and began to carefully examine the documents.
Just as they were about to conduct further searches, they heard light footsteps in the distance. They immediately became alert and quickly dispersed, each seeking cover.
The footsteps were getting closer, and a figure suddenly emerged from the darkness. It was a burly man, holding a gun and a fierce look in his eyes. "Who are you? How dare you come here!" the man roared.
Lu Yining suddenly leaped out from the darkness, punched the big man in the face, and snatched his pistol. "You are the one who should answer the question," Lu Yining said coldly.
The big man covered his face and groaned in pain. At this time, more footsteps were heard, and it was obvious that there were other people rushing here. Lu Yining made a quick decision: "Let's act separately and try not to let them find out that we are so many people!"
Everyone found cover and began to search the entire basement. Li Hao took Lin Yao to a room with a huge map with many locations and routes marked on it.
"This map may show Zhang Zhiyuan's hiding place and other secret places." Li Hao said, pointing to the map.
Lin Yao examined the map carefully, her eyes filled with concentration. "Every mark here could be a key piece of evidence!" she said excitedly.
Meanwhile, Sheng Nanting was walking alone in a dim passage, trying to find other hidden secrets. Suddenly, a voice rang out: "You can't escape, just surrender!"
