Chapter 457

Upon hearing this.

Zhao Zhiguo's heart trembled.

Regarding this matter.

He also knew little.

The only clue was the words spoken by Zhao Mengmeng.

The dimensions of the urn.

And.

The number.

Regarding this matter.

As a police officer, his keen sense told him the situation might not be that simple.

But he did not seek the truth.

Instead, after leaving Dongfu Island, he stayed in Donghai City for a day, then went out to search for Ning Chen.

He had not failed to consider.

Whether there was hidden truth within.

But he also felt some hesitation.

This matter might be best confirmed by Ning Chen himself.

"I am unclear about this matter," Zhao Zhiguo said.

A thousand words and ten thousand phrases coalesced into this single sentence.

This was also Zhao Zhiguo's state of mind.

He felt deep melancholy about it, afraid to face that truth.

To him, Si Shiya was like his own daughter.

How could he possibly let go?

Zhao Zhiguo sighed, "But you cannot continue tracking this; it is very dangerous, you will die!"

Ning Chen and Zhao Zhiguo locked eyes.

Their gazes were filled with calmness.

Regarding Zhao Zhiguo's words.

After hearing them, Ning Chen showed no reaction whatsoever.

But it was precisely this kind of behavior.

That made Zhao Zhiguo frown tightly.

Regarding Ning Chen.

Zhao Zhiguo did not know much.

Most of it he learned from Si Shiya's mouth.

The two had only met a few times.

Back when Si Shiya died.

He also went to find Ning Chen.

Wanting to comfort this pitiful child.

But unsurprisingly.

He went many times, only to be turned away at the door.

To be honest.

Zhao Zhiguo had not expected.

That Ning Chen would be such a person.

Zhao Zhiguo looked at Ning Chen and said, "Aren't you afraid? If you are truly arrested, you will very likely be shot."

Ning Chen replied coldly, "That is my business."

Zhao Zhiguo could not help but take two steps forward, "This is no joke! Now that Shiya is gone, I cannot let you meet with an accident too!"

Ning Chen raised his eyes to look at him, "I have said it, this is my business."

"Why are you so stubborn, even more old-fashioned than me, an old relic!" Zhao Zhiguo exclaimed passionately, "That is an entire Gulf family; do you think you can bring it down alone? The entire police force finds it difficult to investigate deeply."

"You should know about Shiya's father, the 'Sailor', right? He was tortured to death by people from the Gulf family. The immense suffering he endured while alive, you can imagine; at that time, there was hardly a single intact part of his body," Zhao Zhiguo said through gritted teeth.

"If you are also captured by them, the consequences are obvious; opposing an entire Gulf family with one's own strength is nothing but a pipe dream."

Seeing Zhao Zhiguo's somewhat agitated appearance, Ning Chen said calmly, "If you came here with nothing but these messages and nothing else, then I will not accompany you in idle chat."

Saying this.

Ning Chen turned around and walked toward the darkness in the alley.

"Hey!" Zhao Zhiguo ran two quick steps, wanting to grab Ning Chen.

He knew.

If he could not stop Ning Chen this time.

Then there would be no chance ever again.

However.

Given Ning Chen's speed and reaction.

To catch him.

Was clearly impossible.

Only seeing Ning Chen generate wind beneath his feet, he easily dodged past Zhao Zhiguo.

Zhao Zhiguo staggered a few steps, looking at Ning Chen in disbelief.

Just now, his back was turned.

I am a police officer with decades of experience; although I am old, I cannot catch someone right in front of me.

That is a bit hard to explain, isn't it?

"This..." Zhao Zhiguo was too surprised to speak.

Ning Chen stepped back two paces and said, "Regarding the undercover agent you mentioned, I may have some leads. You can search within the police force for someone with a knife wound on their ankle; he is very likely the undercover agent."

"A knife wound?!" Zhao Zhiguo paused for a moment.

In his memory, it seemed someone had suffered such an injury.

In the instant Zhao Zhiguo stood dazed.

Ning Chen completely merged into the darkness.

The Night Walker title ability activated!

Before Zhao Zhiguo's eyes.

Ning Chen merely stepped back two paces, and after merging into the darkness, his figure vanished completely.

What is this situation?

"Ning Chen! Ning Chen!" Zhao Zhiguo shouted, but received no response.

He suddenly rushed into the darkness.

Yet he felt nothing.

Before him, the darkness was just darkness.

But before Ning Chen, it was a shadow that could conceal him.

Ning Chen left the place.

Zhao Zhiguo pounded his chest and stamped his feet.

This time, he let him escape.

Then there would truly be no chance at all.

But.

There is still one place where Ning Chen can be intercepted.

It is a place he must go.

It is the Columbarium!

Zhao Zhiguo leaned against the wall and lit a cigarette.

He smoked silently.

"Really, I am truly useless," Zhao Zhiguo suddenly said.
