At the crossroads, chaos reigned as several escort vehicles arrived to maintain order, accompanied by supervisors from the Guard Department.
"Mr. Fang," a middle-aged man ran over.
"Director Shi," Fang Yi responded.
The man was none other than Shi Nianming. It was he who had escorted Fang Yi out of the station when he was arrested.
Besides Shi Nianming, Li Xue had also arrived, and Fang Yi saw Meng Guangqi casting an ill-intended look in his direction.
"Mr. Fang, could you please come with me to the Guard Department? This matter..." Shi Nianming hinted subtly, as the recent events were not trivial and could easily make the headlines. In this age of information explosions, the entire Moon City would know by the afternoon; it was impossible to cover it up.
Fang Yi said, "Alright, I will fully cooperate, but..."
Shi Nianming immediately assured him, "Mr. Fang, rest assured. I’ve already dispatched some inspectors to protect Ms. Shen. She will be safely escorted back, as she has nothing to do with this incident."
Fang Yi nodded. With Shen Binnan and Cai Cai in tow, he felt at ease.
It was now about 10:30 p.m. Soon, people came to escort Fang Yi to the escort vehicle.
However, at that moment, a woman approached, blocking the guards.
"We will be taking him away," Cai Qin stated.
The guards were in a quandary. Shi Nianming hurried over as Cai Qin presented a badge. His face changed immediately, and he gestured for two guards to stand down before withdrawing himself.
Shi Nianming knew he had no place in this matter.
"Let’s go," Lin Chen said, giving Fang Yi a look filled with caution and vigilance.
Fang Yi understood that he must resolve tonight’s events, especially given the status of these two, evident from Shi Nianming’s expression.
Fang Yi glanced at the woman in black leather pants and asked, "Where are you taking me?"
Cai Qin replied indifferently, "Just to ask you a few questions. Don’t worry."
Fang Yi smiled wryly and said, "I’m just hoping it’s not a one-way trip."
Lin Chen’s face darkened, expressing displeasure, "Just go when you’re told to, and cut the nonsense! Let me tell you, tonight’s incident has caused a major impact. If you don’t come with us, you won’t be able to stay anywhere in Xuan Cang."
Fang Yi asked, "Can I take your words as a threat?"
Lin Chen replied, "You can!"
Fang Yi said, "Alright, I relent." He held out his hands and asked, "Do you need to cuff me?"
Lin Chen’s expression grew stormier, but before he could speak, Cai Qin stopped him and shook her head, "No need."
Then Fang Yi followed the two into an ordinary-looking car and left the area, driving to the outskirts of the city center. Near the edge of the city, the vehicle entered a massive factory.
After getting out of the car, Fang Yi silently followed the two inside the factory and was brought into an empty room with a table, two chairs, and a lamp on the table.
An interrogation room!
Resigned to his situation, Fang Yi sat down behind the table. About ten minutes later, the door opened, and a woman appeared – Cai Qin. Through the light from the table lamp, Fang Yi carefully observed her.
Her face was somewhat gaunt, her eyes were like pools of water, radiating a heroic spirit with her black wavy hair adding to her cold allure.
A golden necklace adorned her elegantly swan-like neck, below which she wore a tightly-fitted black shirt with a U-shaped neckline, revealing a butterfly-like, beautiful snowy-white collarbone.
Her lower body was clad in a pair of black leather pants that tightly wrapped around her full, round legs, revealing their length and firmness. This made her figure tall and slender to an extreme degree, with curves so graceful yet not flowing like the typical woman’s, exuding a competent and heroic aura.
Cai Qin held two glasses of water, placing one in front of Fang Yi before pulling out a chair and sitting down opposite him.
"Thank you," Fang Yi said as he took the water and took a sip to moisten his throat.
"Aren’t you afraid I’ve drugged the water?" Cai Qin couldn’t help but ask.
Fang Yi smiled, "I think with your status, you wouldn’t stoop to such despicable measures."
"You can never be too sure," Cai Qin said. "Considering who you are, taking the risk might be well worth it."
"If it’s risky, then it’s better not done, so I trust you," Fang Yi replied.
"But this is our first meeting," Cai Qin said, her eyes watery, as if curious.
"When it comes to beautiful women, I’ve always been defenseless, especially with a great beauty like you," Fang Yi said with a smile, appearing harmless.
Unmoved, Cai Qin took out a photo, "You must recognize this person."
The photo depicted a man wearing a hooded garment, his features somewhat obscured, but Fang Yi recognized him; it was Lin Shang.
Fang Yi adjusted his sitting posture, "Phantom."
Cai Qin put down the photo, "It seems you really are ’Abandoned Dragon,’ the most wanted criminal globally."
Fang Yi wasn’t surprised that she guessed his identity, as they had managed to track him down.
"Here I am in person, curious about what your Xuan Cang Dragon Team will do," Fang Yi said, casually hinting at the power behind Cai Qin.
This surprised Cai Qin internally, as she hadn’t shown any sign of weakness, yet he guessed correctly.
"You’re mistaken, I’m from the Mysterious Bureau," Cai Qin said, maintaining her composure.
Fang Yi shook his head and chuckled, "Though I often travel abroad, I’m somewhat familiar with Xuan Cang’s Mysterious Bureau and Dragon Team. And since the Mysterious Bureau is under the management of Dragon Team, saying you are from the Dragon Team is not at all incorrect."
Cai Qin opened her mouth slightly, "Alright, let’s not talk about that. Now that we’ve established you are Abandoned Dragon, can you tell me what you came to Xuan Cang for?"
"Want to know?" Fang Yi asked with a smile.
"Of course," Cai Qin replied.
Fang Yi gestured with his finger, "I know there must be listening devices in this interrogation room, come closer, and I’ll tell only you."
Cai Qin got up without any guard and walked over to Fang Yi’s side.
"Bend over and bring your ear closer," Fang Yi said.
A flicker of an ominous hunch crossed Cai Qin’s mind, but she followed his instruction and bent down, bringing her ear close to Fang Yi. As Cai Qin bent over, the beautiful shape of her buttocks, encased in the black leather pants, became even more enticingly round.
"I must say, you have a good figure," Fang Yi complimented.
"Get to the point," Cai Qin felt the position was somewhat awkward.
"Alright, listen carefully, I’m about to say it," Fang Yi said, his mouth curving into a mischievous smile.
The next moment, Fang Yi suddenly moved, swiftly kissing Cai Qin’s softly blushing lips, then his arm quickly wrapped around Cai Qin’s slender waist and pulled her down to sit on his lap.
A chill spread across Cai Qin’s pretty face, and she instinctively fought back, her fist aiming for Fang Yi’s midsection, which he easily caught. To Cai Qin’s surprise, she found herself held even tighter by Fang Yi.
