But this woman, photographed from the side...

Looks very familiar.

She must have seen her somewhere, perhaps not many times, but when it comes to having met, Makely is absolutely certain about it, otherwise she wouldn't find her familiar.

Makely's moment of distraction only lasted for an instant, her body did not even sway slightly.

Soon, she regained her composure.

After returning the phone to Zhang Beixing, she solemnly said to Zhang Beixing, "Minister Zhang, I haven't made any excessive requests to you earlier, but now I want to make one. I wonder if you can fulfill it for me?"

"Go ahead, as long as it's something I can do, I will promise you."

Upon hearing this response, a trace of satisfaction flashed in Makely's eyes but quickly vanished.

This satisfaction was deeply buried in her heart.

She isn't the type to bow down and give thanks for a small favor. She prefers to hide such emotions within her, keeping them secret, and when there's a chance to return the favor in the future, demonstrate it through actions.

Talking without action, what use is that?

"Minister Zhang, I would like to trouble you to send a few people to pick up my family. Since that man dared to do such things in broad daylight at home, he's certainly found a way to send my family members away."

"Also, I'd like Minister Zhang to bring this pair..."

Makely seemed unable to find a suitable word to describe the identity of these two people, finally choosing to skip it altogether.

"Bring them both to me, I want to ask them some questions personally."

Facing Makely's earnest gaze.

Zhang Beixing, at this moment, instead, let out a long sigh of relief in his heart, secretly thinking, fortunately.

These requests were actually the simplest things for Zhang Beixing.

"Alright, this is easy, I promise you, please give me the possible locations where your parents and daughter might be so I can arrange for people to pick them up."

"As for those two scoundrels, I'll immediately arrange for someone to bring them over to you, just wait here a moment."

Makely nodded, provided a few addresses, places her family frequents.

After providing the addresses, she fell silent, finding a quiet place to sit.

Having suddenly received such explosive information, she needed some time to cushion herself, to slightly collect her thoughts.

Soon, Zhang Beixing issued instructions.

He arranged for Yu Yao and Yin Mengwei to pick up Makely's daughter.

And sent two other team members to fetch Makely's parents.

Wang Xinqi and Huang Hai were directly brought to the building by Zhang Beixing.

Upstairs, there were still many people from the DE Organization, all anxiously silent and fearful.

They still didn't know why Zhang Beixing hasn't gone on a usual rampage inside the building but was instead stalled on Makely's floor.

For them, waiting for death was more terrifying than facing death directly.

Everyone in the building felt like there was a sword hanging over their heads, ready to fall at any moment.

No one believed Zhang Beixing might be merciful enough to spare them, not a single person entertained such a thought.

Zhang Beixing's brutal image was too deeply ingrained in people's minds.

So far, wherever he passed, except within the Great Xia itself, his presence abroad left behind scenes of immense bloodshed.

It's hard for anyone to think Zhang Beixing might pardon them.

Such a fantasy simply didn't exist.

Soon, under Zhang Beixing's command, Wang Xinqi and Huang Hai arrived.

Zhang Beixing immediately assigned them two tasks.

To clear the building floor by floor, starting from the first, binding everyone except Makely, awaiting transport back to the Great Xia.

If they encounter anyone who puts up a fight, they are to be killed on the spot, leaving no chance.

Zhang Beixing paid no mind to matters of taking captives.

Upon receiving orders, Huang Hai and Wang Xinqi went straight to work, their speed impressive.

In a little over ten minutes, they had managed to clear two to three floors.

At this point, two individuals with hoods over their heads were led inside by Xu Feng.

At Zhang Beixing's indication, Xu Feng brought them directly to the thirteenth floor, to Makely's room.

Zhang Beixing said nothing, merely gestured with his chin toward Xu Feng, and gave him a look.

Then he stood at the door, silently, both ears closely attuned to any sounds, his gaze lowered, avoiding any eye contact with Makely.

Seeing Zhang Beixing like this, Xu Feng's face twitched involuntarily.

He seemed to grasp the situation somewhat; after all, it was he who had taken the incriminating photos.

Though rarely involved in affairs of the heart, he wasn't emotionally oblivious, quickly sensing something amiss.

Without waiting for Zhang Beixing's orders, after dropping the two individuals at the door, he turned and left.

There was no need to ask. His reasoning? To assist Wang Xinqi and Huang Hai with their task.

Joking aside, this building was vast, there was a lot of binding to be done.

There's no way the two of them could handle it alone; he needed to step up and lend a hand. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Moreover, as the captain of the Ninth Bureau's Extraordinary Reserve Squad, he had yet to secure a major achievement, which would be embarrassing to admit.

He had heard that the sub-branch president was waiting to be captured at the top floor, a ready-made achievement laid before him. Failing to secure it would indeed make him a complete fool.

Though Zhang Beixing had more than enough accomplishments, that didn't mean they did. They should seize what they could while their leader didn't concern himself with such matters.

...

...

Zhang Beixing with the people from the Ninth Bureau was stirring up a storm over there in Western Europe, capturing global attention.

Meanwhile, in another part of Europe, in Eastern Europe, Wu Country where war conflicts persisted.

Leng Bing, dispatched by Zhang Delin to infiltrate the Mafia Organization in Wu Country, lay on a bed, barely clinging to life.

His injuries were too severe, and with the chaos in Simoski's organization following his death, the previously abundant resources became difficult to mobilize, leaving medical supplies unsecured.

Even though Harley Yous saved him and found a doctor for him, and even operated on him.

Harley Yous, after all, was not Simoski; he controlled less than a third of the organization's original strength. After the split, many previously cooperating renowned doctors severed their ties with them to avoid trouble.

Harley Yous had considered sending Leng Bing to Beautiful Country for surgery, but all airports were under surveillance.

Leng Bing's disappearance was widely known, and should Harley Yous attempt to send him to the airport, someone would undoubtedly intercept and assassinate him on sight.

This sort of act was something Harley Yous was convinced they were fully capable of.

Standing by Leng Bing's bedside, Harley Yous looked down at him.

"You now have less than two hours of consciousness each day, are you still able to think clearly?"

Lying in bed, parts of Leng Bing's body wrapped in bandages, he nodded with great difficulty.

From the beginning, the IV had not been stopped, Leng Bing not only felt the pain in his body but also sensed the liquid for infusion was very cold,

Harley Yous sat down, looking intently into Leng Bing's eyes.

"I know you haven't lost contact with the Great Xia. You should be aware of your own situation now, tell me honestly, can you still reach Zhang Beixing?"

"Think it over carefully, answer me well, this is important to you. If you can't contact Zhang Beixing, then I can only force you to the airport."

"By then, you'd have two outcomes: either you get killed at the airport, or you die in this bed within the next few days."
