You were supposed to hoard supplies, why the heck did you hoard zombies!

It wasn't just him, even Yin Peng was cursing his bad luck at this moment.

Why did this incident have to fall on them?

After discovering that the murderer was very likely one of Peng Yue's men, the three had already decided to stay out of it, yet an accident occurred while they were heading back to the alley to deal with the bodies.

Among the bodies lying on the ground, there was a young man named Li Yuanhao.

He was notorious for being a notorious idler and thug.

If it had been someone else, they would have been arrested long ago.

But not only did he get away with everything, he sometimes even went directly to the Shenzhou Guard Bureau to freeload and drink, and even used the intimidation of the bureau to force prostitutes who were in the flesh trade to provide him and a few cronies services for free.

Li Yuanhao's brazenness, of course, had its reasons.

He had an uncle named Li Rong, who was the only Police Inspector of the Wanhao District Guard Bureau and also one of the three major supports under the district head.

The other two were the head of the Urban Management Bureau, Zhang Meng, and the captain of the armed forces, Wu Yue.

The three of them each had control over public security, finance, and the military forces.

They were truly influential, ranking just below one person and above thousands of survivors.

Having such an uncle who was the head of the Guard Bureau, Li Yuanhao naturally did as he pleased in Wanhao District, his carefree face remembered clearly by the police officers under Li Rong.

Therefore, as soon as they removed their helmets, the trio immediately broke out in a cold sweat.

This matter was definitely not going to stay hidden.

Otherwise, once Bureau Chief Li Rong found out about it the next day, the three of them, along with their skins, would be thrown into the garbage dump to the north to feed the rats.

But obviously, the three of them had no way to deal with the Peng family brothers.

So after discussing among themselves, they decided to invoke the name of the Bureau Chief to bring almost all of their colleagues from the Guard Bureau, just to make themselves look more formidable and to force the Peng family brothers to hand over the murderer.

They thought that the worst case was that the murderer was a mere pawn, and with the status of the Wanhao District Guard Bureau, they should be able to make the Peng family brothers compromise.

Who would have thought that the person who opened the door would be a woman with no intention of giving face!

After much hassle, they finally met the mastermind, only to see at a glance that the murderer who killed Li Yuanhao was standing right beside Peng Yue, which made his identity quite clear.

The murderer was actually one of Peng Yue's brothers?

Damn, this was going to be troublesome.

Gao Liang's face immediately turned a bit unsightly.

Was he supposed to tell Peng Yue right to his face that his brother killed our Bureau Chief's nephew and now has to be taken back to the Guard Bureau for a severe beating and then be shot to death and thrown onto an outside trash heap?

He thought about this and took another look at the guards surrounding Peng Yue.

Each one looked like a fierce wolf.

If he really dared to say that, he feared the next second would bring a hail of bullets flying towards him.

While Gao Liang was struggling with the situation, Peng Yue was similarly fretting inside, casting several glances at Peng Liu beside him, thinking how many times he had said to handle things cleanly without leaving troubles behind?

Now look, dammit, they're knocking on our door!

And he had to solve it for his brother!

But after all, it was his own younger brother; at times like these, he definitely had to speak up for his own family, especially since the boss already knew about this.

With Zhang Ye backing him up, Peng Yue no longer really cared about the once-coveted Wanhao District.

So, he carefully chose his words before directly responding:

"I thought it was something serious, just a few people died, right?"

As Peng Yue was saying this, he suddenly paused, his gaze turning to Peng Liu who was standing beside him with an unconcerned expression, and frowned, "Liu, aren't you going to apologize to Inspector Gao right away?"

An apology?

The personnel of the Guard Bureau were dumbfounded.

Gao Liang, who had just relaxed thinking the other side was reasonable, was also staring with a look of disbelief on his face.

Then they saw Peng Liu, who was smoking beside them, spit the cigarette butt from his mouth onto the ground in front of the three men, then walked forward nonchalantly and said, "Sorry, my gun went off last night."

Having said that, he reached into his pocket again and lit another Red Pagoda Mountain cigarette for himself.

Then, as if intentionally, he exhaled a dense cloud of smoke directly into the faces of the three men, causing Gao Liang, who didn't smoke, to start coughing uncontrollably.

When he looked up again, he found that Peng Liu had already walked back.

He was looking at him with sheer disdain.

The expression on his face seemed to say, "What if I did kill him? What can you guys do to me?"

Come and arrest me?

Come on?

Gao Liang was so angry that his face was trembling.

Ever since the Shenzhou Guard Bureau was established, he had never been humiliated like this, not even by the wealthy farm owners who would always address him politely as "High Inspector Gao."

Although everyone knew that only the director of the Guard Bureau was entitled to that designation.

But it wasn't the same story in private.

This Peng spoke in an extremely polite tone, but who would have thought that his threats were all bark and no bite, thinking he could just get away with a verbal apology?

The colleagues from the Guard Bureau following behind him had also witnessed the charade played by the Peng family brothers.

Everyone was somewhat agitated, and some were already ready to draw their guns.

But just then, the crowd behind them suddenly parted, and a very steady voice came from within:

"Killed someone?"

"Think you can settle it with just an apology?"

"Peng Yue, it seems you really are a bit different now."

The man who was speaking quickly emerged from the crowd, his figure exceptionally upright in the black inspector's uniform, but what was more surprising was the gold five-pointed star on his shoulder.

That was the insignia only a first-class inspector of the Shenzhou Guard Bureau could wear.

Usually, it was only those with the rank of squad leader.

When Peng Yue saw the middle-aged man coming out from the middle of the Guard Bureau personnel, his eyes involuntarily flickered, and then he suddenly burst into loud laughter.

"Li Rong?"

"I didn't expect this, truly didn't."

"I was wondering why Brother Hao suddenly thought of creating a Guard Bureau."

With that, he strode forward a few steps, standing in front of the middle-aged man and spread his arms, making a gesture as if to embrace the other man.

Li Rong, dressed in inspector's attire, however, had no intention of hugging Peng Yue.

Instead, he asked in an icy tone:

"My nephew died last night, and I heard it was someone under your command."

"Where is he?"

At that moment, the smile froze on Peng Yue's face and his open hands slowly lowered before he replied:

"Who?"

Li Rong said expressionlessly:

"The murderer who killed my nephew."

"You know my patience has always been quite limited."

The inspectors following behind him seemed to have found their backbone, all changing from their just now timid and cowardly demeanor to becoming extremely excited.

In no time at all, many had already started shouting from behind.

"Hand over the murderer!"

"Otherwise, none of you will leave Wanhao District!" Find more chapters on My Virtual Library Empire
