Late at night, the moonlight shines through the ancient window lattices of the temple, sprinkling mottled light on the golden body of the Buddha, as if covering the solemn Buddha statue with a mysterious veil.

In the quiet night, a woman wearing dark gray meditation clothes and a mask knelt alone at the feet of the Buddha statue, her eyes closed, her hands clasped together, and she prayed with all her concentration.

Her face looked mysterious and pale under the mask, but her eyes revealed deep sorrow and determination.

Her heartbeat was particularly clear in the silent night, and every beat was accompanied by her inner struggle and prayer.

The woman knew that what she was facing was not just a simple task, but a major decision concerning life, death and the future.

She told herself that she was "dead". This was the conclusion the team came to after combining various information, and it was also the reality she had to accept.

However, deep down in her heart, she still longed to meet that person.

She understood that the more she lied, the more suspicious he would be.

Once he doubts his own death, it will trigger a series of chain reactions with disastrous consequences.

Therefore, one must carefully maintain this illusion while ensuring that one's actions do not reveal any flaws.

The woman raised her head slightly and looked at the solemn and majestic Buddha statue.

I hope the Buddha can hear her prayers and bless her with success in her next actions.

The moonlight continued to shine on her, covering her with a layer of silver glow.

She took a deep breath, closed her eyes again, and continued her prayer.

In the silent night, her prayers seemed so faint, yet they were filled with endless firmness and power.

The next day.

Zhang Fan had no choice but to take the fairy back to Akbang.

This one, you can't leave her behind even if you want to.

She didn't have much luggage, just a small bag with some gold bars in it, which was her currency.

Since you are going on a long journey, you must bring these things with you.

I took a plane to the southwest of Xia Country and entered Akbang from somewhere in the southwest. Of course, I came here to see Xia Jiner.

There was a war some time ago, and Xia Jiner had been in charge of the task force, so both of them were very busy. They could come to the border to see each other occasionally, but there was no chance later.

Outside a police station in the southwest.

A milk tea shop.

Zhang Fan met Captain Li.

In fact, there is no problem in meeting people with a normal face, of course no matter who you see.

The Xia State Police Department has already removed the wanted warrant that was issued that year, and has confirmed that there is no factual evidence, as well as who the real murderer is, so there is no problem for Zhang Fan to appear in public.

Captain Li is already covered in scars from fighting drug dealers, but he has always been on the front line and has probably offended many people. He is now also a director, but a marginal person with low authority.

Because of the cooperation between the two sides, drugs from Akbang entering Xia Country have become scarce, and the drug lord groups in the Golden Triangle have also been completely eliminated.

What we need to investigate now is the tiger behind the scenes. There must be someone supporting the drug trafficking group.

Otherwise, how could that group of people have so much power?

The more they investigated, the harder it became. Captain Li couldn't investigate any further. Once more people were involved, there would be more resistance.

But he can't do it alone.

He might even be forced to retire early at any moment.

The two chatted for a while and then left. Some things are hard to talk about, so just briefly mention them.

noon.

Zhang Fan saw the heroic Xia Jiner walking out.

She looked around and finally walked here.

After seeing Zhang Fan, he came over and gave him a hug.

"Sister Xia."

The fairy on the side took the initiative to say hello and handed over a cup of milk tea.

"You're here too. It's a pity I'm very busy, otherwise I would take you to eat something delicious."

Xia Jiner took the cup of milk tea and said with a smile.

"The Huang Yongsheng family is involved in many cases. Now the higher-ups have assigned us to conduct a remote investigation. We have been busy with that case recently."

Xia Jin'er sat down, having already ordered her meal, and just ate something casually.

I have to continue working on the case in the afternoon.

“Don’t overwork yourself.”

Zhang Fan said with great heartache.

Xia Jin'er smiled foolishly.

"I'll go to Phoenix City after I finish my work in Akbang. How about you come with me?"

Zhang Fan asked again.

Xia Jiner didn't know how to answer. She said that it needed approval from the organization. It would work only after approval from the organization.

Many cases have not been fully investigated yet.

“I’ll apply then.”

That was all Xia Jiner could say.

"Sister Jianjia, do you want to go with you?"

Xia Jiner asked again.

Cao Jianjia?

Does she dare to go with me?

She would find all kinds of excuses not to go.

Zhang Fan shook his head.

"Well, it's good to have a younger sister by your side. I haven't met that older sister yet."

The sister Xia Jiner was referring to was the one arranged by her uncle, she must have known that.

It’s not certain whether that one is the older sister. Zhang Fan always feels that she is not very old.

It just appears mature.

After a brief meeting, when the time came, Xia Jiner hurried back.

Zhang Fan was also very helpless, but she actually liked this job.

Let’s see. We have to wait until Phoenix becomes a little more stable before going there.

Now there are military conflicts, which is very dangerous.

The two people walked out of the milk tea shop, and the fairy beside them was holding a cup in her hand.

The two men entered Akbang through a certain port.

As the immigration program continues, the number of people heading to Phoenix from Xiaguo is now beginning to recover.

Perhaps more than a hundred thousand people travel to Phoenix every month.

These people all set out from Piaomiao Port in Akbang. As the number of people gradually increased, the conditions became less favorable.

There are also many people from the sect in the crowd, which can be seen from the way they dress.

This group of people were all looking for so-called good stuff, but no one knew what it was.

More and more forces are coming over, and they will have to be integrated properly by then.

Now Phoenix needs people, all kinds of people, a lot of land needs to be developed, and a lot of resources need to be developed.

A lot of engineering needs to be done.

Now both Xia State and I have invested huge amounts there because we have set our eyes on this piece of land.

The next conflict point will be in Phoenix. Those Westerners will not sit idly by and watch me completely take over Phoenix.

They were waiting, waiting for Wagner to be driven away by them, and then it would be their turn to take the field.

Athena, the extremely anti-Xia person, has made preparations and has a lot of information at her disposal.

After returning to China, I gained some things, but also lost some things.

Thinking back on it now, I still feel a little sad.

However, Zhang Fan didn’t think that the person was really dead. He would have to investigate further because her death was too strange.

This made Zhang Fan wonder, since she was dead, he should continue to investigate further to see if she was really dead.
