Once Zhang Jiangke enters the compound, we arrest him immediately—do you think he can escape?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He thought Yu Dazhang was being overly cautious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So many armed detectives were hidden inside the compound; catching a human trafficker was more than enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if Zhang Jiangke had two guns, he couldn’t escape the provincial police’s encirclement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m not worried about whether he can escape.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Dazhang leaned back in his chair, half-closing his eyes:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This 61-year-old man knows exactly what awaits him after arrest.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“For a man like him, death isn’t terrifying—it’s the waiting for death that’s truly horrifying.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At these words, the car fell silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After about a minute, Xu Dui spoke:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You mean, if he realizes he’s surrounded by police, he’ll swallow poison and kill himself immediately?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Dazhang nodded, speaking thoughtfully:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“A human trafficker who settled in Mianbei is proof that Zhang Jiangke possesses a ruthlessness ordinary people lack.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This ruthlessness isn’t just directed at others—it’s equally applied to himself.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a brief pause, he continued:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“And he’s an old fox who can rapidly assess a situation; once he realizes escape is impossible, he’ll likely swallow poison outright, denying us any chance to capture him alive.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was what he feared most.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Jiangke isn’t like ordinary human traffickers; the more someone who plans three steps ahead, the more ruthless they are toward themselves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because he can see his final outcome, even imagine the days waiting for judgment in detention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those days would be torture for him—worse than death itself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But if he dies, this lead is gone forever.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, under no circumstances can Zhang Jiangke be allowed to commit suicide by poison.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“When you see Zhang Jiangke, no one is to act rashly.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Dui now understood the gravity of the situation and immediately ordered into the radio:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Team Two, take position on the fourth floor of Building 17; everyone else must stay out of Zhang Jiangke’s line of sight.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After putting down the radio, Xu Dui looked at Yu Dazhang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Do we move before he enters the building, or let him go inside?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had stationed Team Two on the fourth floor precisely to arrest Zhang Jiangke as he climbed the stairs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This way, they could approach him while he was unguarded, increasing the chance of a successful capture.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“He won’t give you that chance.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Dazhang stared at the main gate of the compound, speaking in a low tone:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Even if Zhang Jiangke comes, he’ll definitely disguise his appearance—if he lacked even this basic awareness, he couldn’t have evaded capture for so many years.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His words revealed his deep understanding of Zhang Jiangke:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Disguise alone isn’t enough—he’ll wait for the right moment and use someone else as cover.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, Yu Dazhang made his decision:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Call Team Two back; stationing our people in the stairwell will only create unnecessary complications.”\u003C\u002Fp>",704,"2026-06-20T14:22:48.157Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","8da4af8f25dcb5ea3f0abae3ee2b543f2b7e142c578e7ea1bd752324d95bed0c","reborn-in-2014-i-am-the-king-of-criminal-investi-chapter-707","reborn-in-2014-i-am-the-king-of-criminal-investi-chapter-705",763,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Freborn-in-2014-i-am-the-king-of-criminal-investi-cover.jpg"]
