CHAPTER 992: CHAPTER 992: CHARLMAN IS NO MORE

Later, after the investigation, it was found that Xiao Hongdao had, for many years, under the guise of his duke’s status, harmed countless lives.

His scattered followers at home and abroad were all captured and brought to justice under the joint efforts of the police agencies of various countries.

With the fermentation of the news in the British Empire, the Parma Chieftain Court immediately called the British Commonwealth Government, declaring that Jing Yilan in the phone recording was the eldest daughter-in-law of the former Parma First Blue Blood Family, demanding that the British Royal Family promptly release the evidence of Xiao Hongdao’s crimes to give an explanation to the descendants of the Mu Family.

However, Xiao Hongdao was destined not to wait for the Commonwealth Government’s trial.

Because at eight o’clock that night, the International Special Police Force sent a formal letter of apology to the Commonwealth Government. Due to being obstructed by his subordinates during the capture of Xiao Hongdao, and affected by the weather, the helicopter Xiao Hongdao was on crashed, resulting in one fatality and four minor injuries.

In short, Xiao Hongdao died while all the others survived.

As for his remains, when sent back to the Commonwealth Government, they were in such a mutilated state that even the forensic examiner couldn’t bear to look at them.

Forensic examination revealed that Xiao Hongdao suffered a heavy blow to the head before his death, and the helicopter crash might have caused an explosion, with his mutilated body having large areas of burn marks, his eyes missing, an appalling sight.

Xiao Hongdao ultimately did not end well, and after Mu Aoxian avenged the perpetrator, he knelt heavily toward the direction of Parma.

Mu Family’s old and young, rest in peace, the second has avenged you.

...

The chaos came to a complete end, and the earthen building in Yangnan City was also sealed off by the local police overnight.

As the International Special Police Force withdrew, Shang Zonghai hurried back from the Myanmar Border Crossing.

The captain of the special police force strode up to him and nodded respectfully, "Elder Shang, I’ll take away the people from the Charlman family first."

Shang Zonghai nodded, "Mm, handle it according to your procedures."

The captain glanced at him cautiously, "And Yin Zhihong..."

"The old butler died from multiple gunshot wounds while saving the Old Duke." Shang Zonghai stated calmly, and the special police captain readily replied, "Okay, understood."

No wonder his father said that the most cunning is none other than Shang Zonghai, it seems to be undeniably true now.

Ostensibly deploying the special forces to arrest people was actually using them as tools.

"Uncle, Huizai... can we take him?"

At this moment, Su Moshi stepped forward, looking at Shang Zonghai with probing eyes.

The grievances were ended, and Xiao Yehui should be sent to be buried in the Star World West Mountain in the South Sea for peace.

Qi Zai had erected a cenotaph for him back then, and now it turned out to be his final resting place.

The special police captain frowned, glanced at Xiao Yehui who had died sitting in the wheelchair, seemingly reluctant.

Shang Zonghai sighed softly, "Mm, take him."

Captain: "???"

Is this what you call handling it by the book?!

The Charlman family had only two criminals, yet none could be taken back, what would the Commonwealth Government think?

Shang Zonghai discerned the slight discomfort on the special police captain’s face and gestured toward Xiao Yeyan who was limp on the ground, "I left you one."

The special police captain gave a forced smile, "Alright, Elder Shang."

Really, thank you.

The International Special Police Force, with nearly two hundred members, left the scene in a grand procession.

Old George looked at the night with a gloomy gaze, "It’s truly unexpected that a noble duke’s family could be occupied by such a person for decades."

"Alright, the British Empire still has quite a bit awaiting your attention." Shang Zonghai removed his glasses and rubbed his nose, "I’ll have someone take you back."

Old George sighed deeply, "Mm, then I’ll be off first."

As many on the scene left one after another, only He Chen and his two brothers stayed with Shang Zonghai.

Under Black Hawk’s men handling the aftermath, Zuo Xuan and Zuo Tang’s whereabouts were unknown, and there had been no sign of Liuyun and Luoyu all along.

At this moment, Wei Lang approached from beyond the collapsed courtyard wall, bowing his head to report, "Sir, there are several forces outside that haven’t left yet, unsure if it’s the Eldest Young Master or the Young Mistress’s group."

Several forces?!

Shang Zonghai put his glasses back on, "Go and ask Shaoyan and the girl how to handle it."

Wei Lang pursed his lips and glanced up, stammering, "E-eldest Young Master and Young Mistress are missing."

"What do you mean?" He Chen and the others looked at each other, with Shaoyan’s current physical condition, if he encountered an ambush...

Wei Lang deliberated for a moment before answering truthfully, "Just now, the Eldest Young Master personally drove off in that Plunderer, and now all signals are lost, unable to trace their whereabouts."

Shang Zonghai shook his head with his eyes closed, "Who are the people outside?"

"There’s the Scarlet City Flame Alliance, Border Slum Kiln, Myanmar Cabinet Office, underground black market, and two other groups, origins unknown for now."

Shang Zonghai looked at the collapsed outer wall of the earthen building, "Tan Bai is here too?"

Wei Lang glanced at He Chen, with a puzzled look as if asking: Who is Tan Bai?

He Chen had a flash in his eyes, suddenly recalling that Shang Zonghai had previously said that Bai Yan’s surname wasn’t Bai.

He narrowed his eyes, joking with a teasing tone, "Could Bai Yan be from the Tan Family?"

Shang Zonghai did not directly answer but instructed Wei Lang softly, "Go tell them to return to where they came from."

"Yes, sir."

...

After this night, the Charlman family no longer existed in the world.

The following morning, the clouds dispersed, and the sun was bright and warm.

In the exclusive hotel in Naypyidaw Capital, the small conference room by the river was packed with people.

Li San and Nan Xin both had bruised faces, the Border Five Sons sat in a row, and Yin Zhihong watched everyone with a complex look, occasionally sighing softly.

In the blink of an eye, Shang Zonghai pushed open the door and entered.

Everyone in the conference room rose one after the other, and Shang Zonghai pressed his wrist, "Sit down, everyone."

Once seated, Shang Zonghai scanned the room, his gaze finally resting on Li San, "How are Guangming and the others?"

Li San coughed with a fist to his lips, "They’ve already been sent back to the South Sea, you can rest assured, I didn’t say much, only told them it was a kidnapping incident."

Shang Zonghai nodded with some satisfaction, "That’s good, saves them from overthinking and being frightened. Later, inform them that the girl and Shaoyan have gone to Parma, and they might take some time to return."

Li San licked his back teeth, nodding in response, "Alright, but those two..."

"They will be found eventually." said Shang Zonghai, the steady demeanor of a senior overseeing the situation seemingly held a kind of magic, "No need to worry."

Li San felt the phone in his pocket, biting his lip to swallow all his words.

Will they really be found?

Since the earthen building’s lockdown yesterday, He Chen retrieved two phones from the ruins, belonging to Shaoyan and Qiaoqiao.

An entire night had passed, and still, there was no sign of them.

Li San had a mix of emotions, unsure even himself how to describe it.

The previous night, his and Bai Yan’s team broke into the Liao Mountain armory for the rescue operation, with Xi Luo and Bo Tingsu supporting internally and externally, almost using their lives to guard their parents and Mo Jue.
