Capítulo 144: The Devil

Director Zhang and Mo Zi Lin stared in shock as the entire police station erupted into chaos.

Officers were either scrambling to complete tasks or running around trying to look busy. The head of the police department, Fu Shao, was nearly drenched in cold sweat.

He hadn't expected this "old devil" to show up tonight. Desperately trying to maintain order, he shouted, "Look everywhere! Search every corner!"

Fu Shao's face was even angrier than Xu Jingli's because he understood the stakes. If they handled this poorly, Xu Jingli wouldn't just be furious—he could ensure that none of them ever worked in law enforcement again.

The officer who had slipped Director Zhang the note hesitated before speaking. "Sir, the woman we're searching for… she called earlier. She sounded distressed."

Fu Shao's head snapped toward the officer. His furious gaze served as a silent warning: don't say another word.
