Chapter 6
The Task Force's First Mission

Zheng Bei’s family lived in an old, dilapidated apartment building.

However, they occupied the entire floor.

So, it wasn't a problem to find a place for Lin Chuan to stay.

Not only Lin Chuan, but Gu Yi Ran and Zhao Xiao Guang were also living there.

The night passed without incident.

The next day.

Zheng Bei drove his van.

He took Lin Chuan, Zhao Xiao Guang, and Gu Yi Ran to the City Bureau early in the morning.

As soon as they got out of the car and entered the building, they were stopped by Lao Xiong, a detective from the Criminal Investigation Team.

"Captain Zheng, I need to talk to you!"

"Hmm? What's up, just say it. We're all on the same team," Zheng Bei stopped and looked at him.

Lao Xiong nodded, "There's new intel. The Rat said that a group of drug dealers from Guangdong Province are planning to make a deal with Tie Gan and the Rat."

"The Rat agreed to be an informant, but Tie Gan is injured and can't meet with them. I don't know what to do..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zheng Bei’s expression changed slightly.

"Guys from Guangdong? How much are they bringing?"

"I'm not sure. The Rat said there should be a few kilograms."

Zheng Bei nodded, "Okay, our task force will take care of this. Let me go back and make arrangements."

"Oh, also, tell the Rat to come see me later."

Lao Xiong also nodded and turned to leave.

Zheng Bei and his group rushed back to their office.

Ding Guo Zhu and Zhang Xue Yao were already there.

Lao Jiu was also sitting in a chair, preparing lunch for everyone.

Clap, clap, clap –

As soon as Zheng Bei entered, he clapped his hands.

He caught everyone's attention and said with a solemn expression, "Everyone, pay attention! We have a mission."

"This is our first big case since the task force was formed."

"According to the Rat, a group of guys from Guangdong have arrived in Ha Lan City, carrying dozens of kilograms of white powder. They plan to make a deal with the Rat."

"Our mission this time is to bring them down."

"The Rat said he was supposed to meet with Tie Gan for the deal, but Tie Gan is injured and can't go right now, so someone has to take his place."

"I've already decided who will take Tie Gan's place – it's me."

After Zheng Bei finished speaking.

Everyone in the office was shocked.

"Brother, how many people are you taking with you?" Zhao Xiao Guang asked quickly.

Zheng Bei smiled at him, "What do you mean 'taking people'? I already said it. These Guangdong guys are supposed to meet with the Rat and Tie Gan. If we bring too many people, they'll get suspicious."

"These guys from Guangdong are cunning. We have to be careful. You haven't actually dealt with these drug dealers before. You don't understand them. They're all desperate. They're willing to risk their lives to do this. If we make even the slightest mistake, they'll kill us to silence us…"

Gu Yi Ran immediately objected.

Zhang Xue Yao quickly said, "Then let me go with you. My skills are good enough to protect my teacher even if something happens!"

Hearing this, Zheng Bei laughed.

"What are you talking about? I'm a grown man. Do I need you to protect me?"

"Alright, alright, you all stop. I'm not taking anyone with me. Just me and the Rat."

"As for the outside..."

"I'll go with you!"

Before Zheng Bei could finish, Lin Chuan interrupted him.

Zheng Bei turned back to him, "Shi Ge, you really don't have to go. You can stay here and oversee the command and deployment. As for other things..."

"Gu Yi Ran will be in charge outside, I'm sure he can handle it."

"I'll go with you to meet these Guangdong guys. I know more about white powder than you."

"I agree!"

"With Lin Shi Ge with us, we'll be safe!"

"I agree with Lin Shi Ge going too!"

Everyone nodded in agreement, and finally Gu Yi Ran said, "The minority should follow the majority. You're the head of our task force. You can't have anything happen to you. Let Lin Shi Ge go with you."

Seeing that everyone was saying the same thing, Zheng Bei could only nod.

"Alright, three of us then. Me, Shi Ge, and the Rat!"

"Xiao Guang, you'll be in charge of leading the raid. As soon as you hear my signal, immediately lead your team in. Gu Yi Ran will be in charge of the overall command and dispatch outside. Is that clear?"

Gu Yi Ran nodded, "No problem."

"Alright, let's get ready to move!"

"Everyone remember, this is our first big case since the task force was formed!"

"We have to fight a good fight, no matter what. We have to bring down these drug dealers. They came to Ha Lan City, but they're not getting out!"

Zheng Bei's words immediately motivated the others.

They were all fired up.

They all rubbed their hands together, ready to fight.

Only Lin Chuan was calm.

He was right. Out of everyone here, no one understood the brutality of these drug dealers better than him.

Only if he went with Zheng Bei could he truly feel at ease.

The time for the transaction arrived.

"Listen to my signal. The sound of my lighter will be the cue."

"One click means I'm going to trade with Xie Qi Chen. Two clicks means we're going to leave. Remember, you have to wait until we get out before you make your move!"

"Three clicks, and you rush in to save us. Got it?"

Everyone nodded, "Got it!"

"Good. That's the plan. Shi Ge, let's go?"

Lin Chuan nodded, carrying a black leather bag, and walked toward the hotel with the Rat.

According to the agreed upon location and room number.

Zheng Bei, Lin Chuan, and the Rat successfully found Xie Qi Chen.

As soon as they walked in, the Rat went up to Xie Qi Chen with a big smile on his face.

"Boss Xie..."

Xie Qi Chen glanced at them, then focused his gaze on Zheng Bei.

"You're Tie Gan?"

"That's right, it's me. It was so hard to meet you. Did you bring the goods?"

"Of course. What else would we be doing all the way up here in the Northeast? What about your money..."

Zheng Bei smiled, turned and looked at Lin Chuan.

Lin Chuan walked over with a black briefcase.

He opened the briefcase, and it was full of cash.

Seeing the money, Xie Qi Chen's smile widened.

Then, he gestured to someone beside him, who brought over a bag of goods.

The transaction went smoothly. During the process, Zheng Bei took out his lighter and made a click.

While they were trading.

Lin Chuan was observing the surroundings and the people in the room.

When the time came to make a move, how many of them could he take down...?
