Chief Constable Han Ping from Pingxi City's Law Enforcement Office was the first to return to the city. When he realized that Yan Liqiang wasn't in the city, he soon discovered that the latter had gone to the Lu Residence in Huanglong County after asking around. With that, he rode tirelessly to the Lu Residence to make a report.
After Yan Liqiang assigned Han Ping his task last time, the latter left Qiyun Prefecture with two of his reliable subordinates. They put on a disguise and infiltrated Yin Province. It had been almost a month since then. Han Ping was travel-worn. His beard was dusty and he seemed to have slimmed down considerably. Even so, he was still very energetic.
Yan Liqiang knew he had an important report to make just by looking at him, so he didn't stay any longer in the Lu Residence. After bidding his farewell to Old Master Lu, he had Han Ping join him in his carriage while they rode back to Pingxi City overnight.
