Ma Xidao's efforts were not completely empty-handed. Although they did not catch the Yakuza who were with Yintian, they arrested several local gangsters who helped them transport "HYPER" across the country. The leader of them was the guy who was drinking with Yintian in Xiaopang's photo.

After some questioning, the boy revealed Yin Tian's whereabouts in South Korea, a hotel in the north of the city, and Ma Xidao was already on his way there with his men.

At this time, Jack was driving a BMW and following Zhou Xingzhe's car from a distance, keeping out of visual distance and tracking him only by the GPS navigation positioning on his mobile phone. The other party's driving direction seemed to be heading towards the north of the city.

To be on the safe side, he called Prosecutor Kim Jun-ho, omitted the part about illegal wiretapping, and only said that he suspected Zhou Xingzhe of the Narcotics Division of the Geumcheon Police Station had some problems and might be in conflict with Ma Xidao over the current case.

This situation is not even a problem for a prosecutor. Not only does he have the power to investigate, but he also has the final say on which police departments to request to assist in the investigation.

But he was very happy with Jack's timely reporting attitude, and he had no idea that the FBI, which he thought was very respectful of people, was secretly plotting to rob his fellow criminals.

Unfortunately, both Zhou Xingzhe and Jack who followed him were a step too late. When they arrived, the hotel where Yintian lived was surrounded by police cars, and emergency personnel were carrying two bodies out on stretchers.

Jack waited nearby until Zhou Xingzhe left, then slowly drove the car to the hotel entrance. He lowered the window and looked at Ma Xidao, who was holding his ribs and walking with a limp.

"What happened?"

He was a little surprised that there was someone who could beat this "One Punch Man" like this. How many people were there on the other side?

"It should be the killers from Japan you mentioned. We just happened to run into them in the underground parking lot." Huang Dongjun also looked seriously injured and was covering his chin with an ice pack.

"Hida was killed by them?" Jack was even more surprised.

Ma Xidao had a mask of pain on his face and kept rubbing his ribs. "He was taken away. We had a fight in the parking lot. Those bastards dared to hit me with their car."

Jack looked around and confirmed that none of Zhou Xingzhe's followers were nearby. He quickly got out of the car and helped Ma Xidao. He found that this guy was fine except for some soft tissue contusion. He was like a human tank.

"Why are there only two of you here?" After helping the two into the back seat of the car, Jack got back in and started the car.

"The others were dealing with the scum that was caught in the bar. After we found out where Hikita was, we rushed here, but we were still a step too late."

The two men recounted in detail their experiences. When they arrived, Hikita had already been captured by the Japanese killers, and the vehicles of both parties passed each other in the hotel's underground parking lot.

As a result, Ma Xidao, who was sitting in the passenger seat, glanced inadvertently and saw Yintian, who was beaten black and blue in the back seat of the other car.

After receiving the reminder, Huang Dongjun directly put the car in reverse gear and stepped on the accelerator to block the other car. As a result, the fragile Hyundai "Pallis" was directly hit by the other party's Mercedes-Benz G and stalled.

Both parties got out of the car and started a gunfight. Ma Xidao punched each of them, and Huang Dongjun was beaten like a sandbag. Yintian took the opportunity to get out of the car and escape, but was caught up by the Yakuza killer, who stabbed him in the waist and dragged him back to the car like a dead dog.

Ma Xidao was about to step forward to rescue the person, but he saw another Mercedes-Benz G rushing towards the unprepared Huang Dongjun. He had to choose to save his teammate first and stepped forward to push Huang Dongjun away.

In the end, Huang Dongjun survived, but Ma Xidao was knocked away and the other party took the opportunity to escape.

Jack couldn't help shaking his head after hearing this. Ma Xi said that if there was a more reliable or capable teammate, the case would be almost over.

"What's going on with that little girl? Isn't she Brother Zhentai's sister-in-law?" Ma Xidao changed the subject and pointed at Park Min-young, who was drunk and smacking his lips in the front passenger seat.

Jack then recounted in detail the process of following Zhou Xingzhe just now. Soon the BMW drove into a residential area. Jiang Zhentai and his wife were already waiting downstairs.

"How did Minrong become like this? Didn't she cause you any trouble?" Seeing his sister-in-law being carried out of the passenger seat by Jack in a princess hug, Jiang Zhentai, who had just been discharged from the hospital in the afternoon, didn't know what expression to make for a moment.

Jack put the girl down and asked the couple to hold her up. "She seems to be in a bad mood and has drunk a little too much."

Park Min-young woke up after being blown by the wind, but he was still unconscious. He grabbed Jack and kept grinning, "Help me get all the aircraft carriers from your country. He said that as long as we unify, there will be no problem. Then cross the 38th parallel and bring him back to me, okay?"

Jiang Zhentai's wife slapped her sister on the forehead without any hesitation, "What are you doing drunkenly, little girl? This is our own neighborhood. You are so embarrassed."

Jiang Zhentai quickly stretched out his hand to block it, "It's time to make a fuss. No wonder it's been so quiet lately. I'm used to it."

"If it doesn't work, just throw it away, or give it to Jack and let him take it back to America to be his maid."

"What era is it now? You still say such things. This is not the Goryeo era. Besides, this girl can't even cook. I don't know who will serve whom when she goes there."

Watching the couple chattering as they helped Park Min-young up the stairs, Jack waved at their backs with a helpless look and returned to the car.

"The colleagues who stayed in the hotel sent me the video surveillance." Huang Dongjun handed his mobile phone to Jack.

From the surveillance footage, we can see that Hikita and his two men were stopped in the hotel corridor. The leader was a bearded guy. Although he had a Japanese face, at first glance he looked somewhat similar to John Wick played by Keanu Reeves.

The seven people divided into two groups and blocked Hikita and his two subordinates in the corridor. There was no audio in the surveillance footage, but it can be seen that these killers acted very decisively. Two of Hikita's men were stabbed to death by the other side using wakizashi, and Hikita himself was forcibly taken away.

Jack watched as the bearded leader searched out a pile of Korean won banknotes from Hikita's travel bag and threw them on the ground in great anger. "It seems that Hikita didn't bring those HYPERs with him."

"Do you think the killers from 'Ichitsu Group' are also going for those drug carts?" Ma Xidao's eyes lit up, as if he had an idea.

Jack nodded and opened a detailed report on his phone that Alice had sent him not long ago.

"I can probably guess how they managed to get those 30 kilograms of HYPER without telling the headquarters. The original ones that came from Japan were mainly made of cocaine, but after adding some auxiliary ingredients, they became the common HYPER on the market.

This original version of 'HYPER' has a higher cocaine content and a stronger effect, so it is very popular in the market. I'm afraid that Taiwanese drug dealers also come here because of its reputation.

This is the toxicology report of the female victim at the beginning. Although the drug components in her body are similar to those of HYPER, the content of cocaine is obviously much less, and the proportion of phenolphthalein is greatly increased.

Although phenolphthalein is more potent than cocaine, it is also more dangerous and even a slight overdose can be fatal. "

Huang Dongjun thought for a moment, "You mean, Yintian got a batch of phenolphthalein from somewhere, and then secretly changed the original ratio of HYPER, replacing part of the cocaine with cheap phenolphthalein."

Jack shook his head repeatedly, "It's not that simple. Remember the White Shark Gang's demise more than two years ago? How did Zhou Xingzhe get promoted twice?"

"Of course it's because he single-handedly wiped out the White Shark Gang that cooperated with the Yakuza." Ma Xidao didn't understand why he asked that.

"What about the drug cartels of the White Shark Gang? How many did he seize at that time?" This was not mentioned in the news that Huang Dongjun showed them before, but it did not affect Jack's bold assumption.

"It seems to be less than 10 kilograms, but that's not a small amount." Huang Dongjun vaguely guessed what Jack meant.

"OK, we all know what happened later. After killing the White Shark Gang, Zhou Xingzhe reached a cooperation with the 'Yi Tiao Group' and began to assist them in selling 'HYPER'.

With the new protection, the 'Ichitsu Group' also changed its original model. They increased the amount of drug shipments and began to directly ship the raw materials in order to reduce transportation risks, and moved the processing of 'HYPER' to South Korea.

What if Zhou Xingzhe did not hand over all the HYPER, but secretly hid a portion and gave it to Hikita, and then sold it as a newly produced drug? "

Huang Dongjun looked a little excited. "In this case, the total amount of HYPER sold on the market will remain unchanged, and the Ichijo Group headquarters will not be able to detect it, but Zhou Xingzhe and Hikita will be able to steal some of the raw materials, mainly cocaine."

Jack gave him an approving look, "So they only need to get a small batch of cheap phenolphthalein and slightly change the ratio of 'HYPER' to make more finished products. The two have similar efficacy, but the latter is much more dangerous.

Whether these pirated HYPERs are mixed in with the originals and sold privately or all sold privately to Taiwanese drug dealers, they can maximize their profits and can perfectly conceal the truth from the Ichijo Group headquarters."

"If it weren't for Yin Tian's men betraying him, their plan would have succeeded." Huang Dongjun suddenly realized and raised his palm to hit Jack.

Ma Xidao, who was standing by, blinked his eyes, looking confused. "What the hell are you talking about?"

Huang Dongjun was about to explain it to him again, but he waved his hand impatiently and said, "So now whether it's Zhou Xingzhe or the killers from the 'Ichitsu-gumi' headquarters, or the Taiwanese drug dealers, their goal is to find the 30 kilograms of 'HYPER', right?"

Seeing the two of them nod at the same time, Ma Xidao patted the back of his chair and said, "Then why don't we just find these poison sticks first and then catch all the bad guys?"

Well, it sounds like it is not that complicated. As expected of God Ma Dongseok, Jack nodded repeatedly, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

"Now that Hikita has fallen into the hands of the killers, he will definitely be tortured. It will not be easy to find the 30 kilograms of HYPER before the Ichijo Group does."
