Palace No. 1 had just wrapped its small meeting when, the next day, Xingjin Sub-Bureau held a major one.

If you don’t catch the killer by then, you’re done. All of you, out.” The room fell silent, except for the fearless rookie Lu Qing, who muttered, “We’re tenured. You can’t just fire us. That’s…-

The guest left, the tea cooled, and the cigarette in the incense burner had burned to ash, leaving just a stub. Fei Zheng poured the untouched tea down the sink, tidied the apartment, and drove to the company. As his car vanished at the road’s end, a figure emerged from the alley, silently watching the direction it went. Confirming Fei Zheng wouldn’t return and no lackeys were around, they waved to a few “shoppers,” and the group re-entered Jiangxue District. Fei Zheng’s purchased…-

In the same city, some savored delicacies of land and sea, while others subsisted on thin porridge and rice broth. Day after day, tasteless broth was spooned to the patient’s lips. Despite its blandness, the patient obediently followed the doctor’s orders, sipping it slowly. Sun Xingchun appreciated such compliant patients, praising, “Your son’s recovery is going well. His throat’s nearly healed, and the rehab center staff say he’s remarkably determined. A few more months of this care,…-

In the banquet hall downstairs, the pre-dinner appetizers had been cleared away, replaced by an array of exquisite and lavish main courses. However, the guests were uneasy, with little appetite for the food. Whispers, both overt and covert, buzzed through the room, all centered on the scene that had just unfolded. Some remarked that the last time at the Junyue Hotel, trouble followed Yu Duqiu’s appearance, and this time seemed no different. The young master Yu, true to his reputation, was…-

Yu Duqiu stood waiting for a while, sipping a glass of champagne, but the supposedly furious Xiao Bai wolf didn’t show up. Instead, Fei Zheng descended from the third floor via the elevator. Given his status, he wasn’t prominent enough to mingle with the banquet hall’s wealthy and influential guests. He sensibly grabbed a drink and some food from the buffet area and quietly settled at a small corner table to eat dinner. Hong Liangzhang, serving guests in the dining area, passed by him. They…-

Bai Zhao didn’t waste a second. After receiving Fei Zheng’s response, he extended his hand in a gesture of goodwill. “So, does this mean we have a deal, Secretary Fei?” However, Fei Zheng shook his head. “You’ve got a sharp mind, and I appreciate that, but your capability is still in question.” He straightened…-

His school was a makeshift structure converted from an old warehouse,…-

Yu Duqiu left the study, avoiding the crowd, and quietly slipped to the basement of the auxiliary building. When he emerged, his suit pocket held something new, and his confidence was bolstered. Humming a tune on his way back to the main building, he ran into the very Xiao Bai wolf who had irritated him that morning. The banquet was still hours away, and no guests had arrived yet. Bai Zhao stood on the tree-lined avenue stretching from the main gate to the main building, talking with someone. A sturdy…-

Prologue In the deep autumn of October, a rare torrential downpour fell. The streetlamp at the alley's entrance couldn't penetrate the dense rain curtain, only illuminating the edges of the rain lines. The silvery light flickered like blades falling from the sky, rushing into a swift and cold murder. The alley, only three meters wide, led ten steps in to the back door of a neighboring bar, which directly connected to the kitchen. Three half-height garbage bins stood at the door, with the store…-
