Peach Blossom Divine Medical God Chapter 1900: 1894: The Secret Bureau Takes Over
Previously on Peach Blossom Divine Medical God...
Tan Jing stood outside the residence, a prolonged period of silence from within heightening her anxiety. Her concern for Chen Yang propelled her decision to lead the police enforcement team into the structure.
Upon entry, however, she found Chen Yang standing unharmed in the main room, while the two identified criminals lay incapacitated on the floor, utterly still!
“Chen Yang, are you unharmed?”
Witnessing Chen Yang’s safety, Tan Jing immediately approached him.
“I’m well. These two are the culprits, and I've already subdued them,” Chen Yang stated, gesturing toward the men on the ground.
Tan Jing’s expression shifted to one of complexity upon this revelation.
Handling criminal suspects in such a manner is not standard procedure. While Chen Yang's intervention was helpful, this action would undoubtedly lead to certain complications.
“Are these individuals deceased?” Tan Jing inquired.
Chen Yang understood the official protocols regarding the decisive handling of suspects but had already formulated a strategy to manage the fallout.
“Affirmative, they are no ordinary individuals. They initiated an assault the moment I entered. I was left with no alternative but to neutralize them,” Chen Yang elaborated.
A degree of Tan Jing’s conflicted sentiments eased marginally upon hearing his explanation, though the unease did not entirely vanish.
“Furthermore, these two possess extraordinary capabilities, exceeding the resources of your department. I suggest you liaise with your director to involve personnel of a higher caliber for this situation,” Chen Yang promptly advised.
These two were indeed elite combatants from the Blood Bat Hall, a level Tan Jing’s department was unequipped to handle.resolving this matter required the intervention of a clandestine organization.
“What? You suggest these two hold very unique affiliations?” Tan Jing was still somewhat taken aback.
She felt a shift in authority, as if Chen Yang, rather than herself, was now in command.
“Indeed, exceptionally unique. Contact your director without delay, or severe repercussions may follow,” Chen Yang advised Tan Jing with assuredness.
“Understood.” Tan Jing, unwilling to risk any further delay after his warning, swiftly acted on Chen Yang’s suggestion, retrieving her phone to contact her superiors.
Shortly thereafter, confirmation arrived: the director had sanctioned the action, and appropriate personnel would be dispatched promptly.
“On a side note, Chen Yang, as you were the one who apprehended the suspects, you will likely need to remain on site for the duration of the investigation,” Tan Jing informed Chen Yang.
“Understood.” Chen Yang nodded in agreement.
He remained at the location with Tan Jing, awaiting subsequent developments.
Although the incident fell outside Tan Jing’s direct purview,
she was still capable of conducting an initial assessment of the scene.
Following her communication, she promptly directed her team to commence various examinations of the premises and inquiries into its ownership.
Positive news emerged following the investigation.
The registered owner of the house was currently away, indicating no other inhabitants.
This meant there were no additional casualties, only the individual discovered deceased in the alleyway.This development was undoubtedly a relief for all involved, as no one desired further loss of life.
Approximately thirty minutes later, an SUV arrived outside the residence.
The special agency had reached the location.
Their contingent was substantial, numbering around seven or eight individuals, with a notable figure heading the group.
It was Ma Jiantao, the Deputy Director.
Logically, an incident in such a minor locality should not have necessitated Ma Jiantao's personal involvement, yet here he was, present at the scene.
Upon their arrival, the special agency immediately secured the area and initiated their assessment of the situation.
Ma Jiantao, upon entering the house, immediately recognized Chen Yang.
“Chen Yang, what brings you here?” Ma Jiantao expressed his surprise.
Chen Yang offered a smile: “Deputy Director Ma, what a fortunate coincidence to encounter you here.”
“Indeed. I was actually here for a brief respite after my previous visit, choosing not to return to the provincial capital immediately. Little did I anticipate stumbling upon this situation today and being tasked with its resolution. I certainly didn’t expect to find you here as well,” Ma Jiantao remarked with a chuckle.
“So, what is the nature of this incident? You were the one who handled the suspects, correct?” Upon seeing Chen Yang, Ma Jiantao swiftly deduced the circumstances.
It was unlikely anyone else present possessed the capability to manage such a case.The other officers were ordinary individuals and would be incapable of confronting cultivators.
“Yes, it was I,” Chen Yang admitted readily, without any pretense of denial.
“Explain the details. What transpired?” Ma Jiantao initially presumed it was a conventional dispute involving cultivators.
However, after examining the deceased individuals and hearing Chen Yang’s account of their potential affiliation with the Blood Bat Hall, Ma Jiantao’s demeanor shifted to one of astonishment.
“What? Individuals from the Blood Bat Hall? How is that possible? They are not supposed to be operating in this vicinity!” Ma Jiantao’s initial reaction was outright disbelief upon hearing Chen Yang’s report.
Yet, after personally inspecting the deceased, his expression grew notably somber.The special agency possessed extensive intelligence and was well-acquainted with the modus operandi of the Blood Bat Hall.
The lifeless bodies clearly bore the sinister signature of the Blood Bat Hall. Their blood had been entirely siphoned, yet curiously, no visible wounds marred their forms—a ghastly technique exclusive to the Blood Bat Hall in the entire cultivation world. Furthermore, the two fallen members of this nefarious organization displayed a distinct mark: a blood bat tattoo emblazoned on their backs, the undeniable emblem of the Blood Bat Hall!
“They truly are from the Blood Bat Hall!” Ma Jiantao exclaimed, his astonishment palpable.
“Leader, what exactly is this Blood Bat Hall organization? Do they possess any particular specialties?” Tan Jing inquired, her brow furrowed in confusion upon hearing Ma Jiantao’s words.
It was then that Ma Jiantao registered the presence of the uniformed police officers still on the scene. “Haha, it’s nothing of great import, merely some minor complications. You have all performed admirably today; we shall assume responsibility from here. You are free to return and rest,” Ma Jiantao stated with an affable smile.
Despite her bewilderment, Tan Jing did not press the matter further. She offered her thanks to Chen Yang and, with her team, began to withdraw. Soon, the vicinity was entirely populated by the members of the clandestine agency.
“Chen Yang, what precisely transpired here? How did you come to be involved in eliminating members of the Blood Bat Hall?” Ma Jiantao felt utterly overwhelmed by the turn of events. Merely days prior, he had explicitly cautioned Chen Yang against any entanglements with the Blood Bat Hall, and yet, this was the outcome.
Chen Yang, having already formulated his explanation, replied with a sigh of helplessness: “Deputy Director Ma, it was not by my design. However, these two individuals initiated an immediate assault upon me, compelling me to defend myself!”
…Chen Yang recounted his narrative with earnest sincerity, emphasizing that he had merely intended to assist Tan Jing in resolving a situation, never anticipating an encounter with members of the Blood Bat Hall. But when they aggressively targeted him, he was left with no alternative but to retaliate.
Upon absorbing Chen Yang’s detailed explanation, Ma Jiantao offered no further commentary. Within the context of Chen Yang’s account, the two deceased individuals undeniably merited their grim fate, having courted their own destruction.
“Chief, what course of action shall we take now?” a subordinate inquired. “Should we pretend this incident never occurred, or is it necessary to notify the Blood Bat Hall?”
Ma Jiantao remained in contemplation for a moment before responding: “We shall inform the Blood Bat Hall. Given that these two attacked innocent civilians, they initiated the conflict and were in the wrong. We bear no culpability. Furthermore, under no circumstances should Chen Yang’s involvement be mentioned; state that they were neutralized by our own personnel as a last resort. This strategic communication will prevent the Blood Bat Hall from lodging any accusations against us.”
“Understood.”
The subordinate acknowledged the order and promptly departed to execute the given instructions.
