Chapter 372: Chapter 372 Big Brother-in-law and Brother-in-law (Twelve More)_1

Xian Qianling’s expression immediately darkened, and she said to you, "I just received news that Cen Jinghua, who was originally confined by the family in the old mansion, has escaped, and he is said to have stolen the family’s treasured heirloom too."

"The family’s treasured heirloom? What is that?"

"I’m not sure, but you definitely need to be cautious. We absolutely cannot let that guy find an opening this time."

Hearing Xian Qianling’s words, both your face and your heart sank.

There’s an old saying, "One is not afraid of a thief who steals, but fears a thief who covets." Cen Jinghua has repeatedly sought to cause you trouble, aiming to put you to death. Your relationship with him has truly reached a point of life or death.

To be honest, you dislike killing, let alone taking a life, but disliking it doesn’t mean you won’t do it!

"I understand," you said gravely. "But you should also try not to be alone recently."

"Mhm."

Hearing your concern for her, a hint of sweetness flashed in Xian Qianling’s eyes. She flashed you a toothy smile, then put on her helmet, and roared off with a gust of wind.

Suddenly, you remembered something vividly; Zhang Zifeng seemed to have a motorcycle that looked very much like this one in both color and model.

"This crazy woman, she didn’t come all the way here from the police station on her bike just to tell me this, did she?" you muttered to yourself, scratching your head and cursing with a laugh, "Can’t she just give me a call? A simple phone call could solve this; is there any need to go through all this trouble?"

At that moment, you suddenly thought about the operation a few nights ago, that if the police got involved, it could likely be resolved more effectively. Watching Xian Qianling’s retreating figure, you couldn’t help but sigh: "She really is a crazy woman, as tempestuous in her coming and going as insanity itself."

However, considering the safety issue, you did not inform Xian Qianling but instead called Zhang Zifeng.

"Li Muyun, you calling me at this time, it wouldn’t be to tell me Captain Xian did something to you, would it?"

"Get lost! Do you think I’m that casual?" you retorted irritably, "I need your help with something."

"Speak," said Zhang Zifeng, cutting straight to business upon hearing it was a serious matter.

"Tonight, I’m hoping to borrow a group of men from your team."

"For what?"

"There are about a dozen armed thugs who mean to harm my friend. I’m planning to give them a good beating, and then you can come with your guys and tie them all up."

Zhang Zifeng paused and then replied, "If it were any other time, I would certainly oblige, but not tonight. Our whole team is being deployed, with Captain Xian leading us alongside the SWAT team in a very important operation."

"I see, well, never mind then. I’ll think of another way."

Just as you were about to hang up, Zhang Zifeng suddenly said, "Oh right, you could go find your uncle... I mean, Captain Xian’s brother, Xian Qianzhong. He used to be the captain of the Southeast Military Region Special Forces and got promoted to the commander of a field army after being awarded a first-class military honor."

"Getting the army involved? Isn’t that a bit too much?"

"Nowadays, the military and police are all one family. With the New Year around the corner, these idle soldiers are itching for action. It would be a good chance for them to stretch their muscles."

"Makes sense."

With that, you hung up the phone and redialed Xian Qianzhong’s personal mobile number.

Before long, Xian Qianzhong’s somewhat deep voice came from the other end, "Hello, who’s this?"

"Oh, Uncle... Err, Brother Xian, it’s me, Li Muyun."

"Oh, brother-in-law! My goodness, I just heard, and the day before yesterday the old man was saying, they said you and Little Ling were huddled together in a cave, sharing life and death, that the two of you developed some incredible relationship."

You covered your forehead, everyone from the Ling Family was just the same!

You suddenly felt that calling Xian Qianzhong for help was a thoroughly terrible idea!

"Uh, it’s nothing, I’m gonna hang up now."

"Don’t, brother-in-law, if you’re calling me at this time, you must have run into some trouble, right?"

Grabbing your head with a bit of frustration, although you really didn’t want to bother Xian Qianzhong, this matter involved the safety of Wang Xiaohan’s whole family, it had to be foolproof, you could only stiffen your resolve and say, "Well, I’d like to ask for a favor."

After that, you spoke with Xian Qianzhong for about ten minutes.

Once you hung up the phone, you couldn’t help but sit in the car seat and let out a long sigh, lamenting, "Damn it, for the sake of my brother, I’m even selling my charm now."

On the other end of the phone, sitting on a rock, chewing on a young twig, dressed in combat gear, Xian Qianling slowly stood up, took a megaphone from his waist, spit out the twig, and shouted towards a group of soldiers wrestling in the mud, "Wrestle, wrestle hard for me! Whoever remains standing in the end, I’ll take you guys out for a feast tonight!"

At three o’clock in the afternoon, Xian Qianzhong showed up in the private room of the restaurant you had agreed on, accompanied by ten robust men who looked like bears.

"Brother-in-law!"

The moment Xian Qianzhong came in, he gave you a bear hug!

Fortunately, your body was tempered; otherwise, a hug from him might have risked a fracture.

"Big uncle, nice to meet you, I’m Xiao Feng, Little Yunyun’s good brother and ’partner in crime’!"

"Oh wow, you’re Xiao Feng the Madman, Little Ling has told me about you before."

With that, the two of you also shared a bear hug.

"Come on, everybody take a seat."

Xiao Feng, with the demeanor of a "professional troublemaker of a hundred years," cheerfully invited the ten bears, oh no, the ten robust men to take their seats with a grin.

Once everyone was seated, you said to Xian Qianzhong, "It’s just like we talked about this morning. There are over a dozen enemies, all bloodstained hands, none of them are good news."

Xian Qianzhong chuckled and said, "Brother-in-law, today you’re the boss, however you say we fight, we’ll fight."

"The plan is simple, I’ll engage with them first, and then you guys will encircle from behind and take care of the cleanup. I’ve already tipped off the criminal police team. You all will escort this gang to the criminal police team."

Xian Qianzhong nodded and asked, "Do these guys carry weapons? We came with empty hands."

Hearing this, you smiled and said to Yang Kai next to you, "Little Kai, show the captain our weapons!"

"Alright!"

Saying this, Yang Kai took out a very cool-looking black automatic rifle from the travel bag next to him.

"This is... the German HK-416!"

Xian Qianzhong didn’t say another word, snatching it directly from Yang Kai’s hands.

With a few clicks, Xian Qianzhong took the gun apart and then looked at Yang Kai with a speechless expression, "Is this a replica!?"

Yang Kai raised an eyebrow with a smile, "Of course, we’re a supernatural detective agency, not arms traffickers, where would we get a real gun."
