My Pretty Campus Queen

Chapter 623 - 621: Police Mobilization

Over there, after seeing Hu Fei and their car drive away, Li Jun finally breathed a sigh of relief. Otherwise, the question just now was indeed very difficult to answer. He probably could have made up a story, but the most worrisome thing was accidentally revealing a flaw. That would have been a complete failure.

Now that he was finally out of danger, Li Jun quickly dashed forward. The highway was less than five hundred meters away. He was quite lucky; as soon as he got out, a car approached.

Li Jun waved his hand, and the car pulled over.

The driver was a man in his forties, quite friendly. Indeed, he was the same person who had earlier picked up Chen Tianlong and Jiang Yufan from the airport.

"How long does it take to get to town?" Li Jun asked anxiously, seeing he had about forty minutes left.

"Fifteen minutes." The driver responded with a faint smile.

"Ah? That far? Then... could you lend me your phone to make a call to my family? It’s urgent." Li Jun thought for a moment, deciding it was best to notify them first by phone.

"Oh? Young man, are you coming from the Earth Dragon?"

The driver wasn’t stupid. He saw that Li Jun had just come from that direction, so he must be from the Earth Dragon Organization. But since Li Jun didn’t even have a phone, there was only one possibility: he was a worker who had escaped.

"Well... no... driver, I really have an urgent matter, please lend me your phone." Li Jun was getting anxious; time was really running out, and Zhang Yufei and Chen Tianlong were both still inside the Earth Dragon.

"Haha, kid, don’t try to fool me. From the way you’re dressed, you’re definitely someone who escaped from the Earth Dragon. Those Earth Dragon bastards really ruin people; they won’t meet a good end," the driver said, biting his teeth angrily.

"Ah? Uncle, do you have a grudge against the Earth Dragon Organization?" Li Jun finally saw a glimmer of hope and asked excitedly.

"Indeed, my family was harmed by the Earth Dragon’s goods. That Earth Dragon is rampant and tyrannical and should have been annihilated long ago. Young man, tell me honestly, if you’re one of the victims who escaped the Earth Dragon, I’ll definitely help you." The driver declared resolutely.

Seeing the sincere look in the uncle’s eyes, Li Jun thought he probably wasn’t part of the Earth Dragon, so he decided to take a gamble.

After all, time was short, and the matter would be exposed sooner or later. If this uncle was indeed part of the Earth Dragon, there wasn’t much he could do — they already knew he had escaped, and they’d probably catch him soon enough.

"Alright, I did escape from there. I’m a cop; I went undercover. Time is tight, and I urgently need a phone." With determination, Li Jun said.

"Really?"

"Really, true as can be."

Seeing the uncle’s excited expression, Li Jun was convinced he was a good person, so he quickly added, "Uncle, I really am a cop, but I don’t have my ID with me. Please believe me."

"Okay, sure."

The driver didn’t say much more; it was clear he believed Li Jun. He took a phone out of his pocket and handed it to Li Jun, saying respectfully, "Here you go, officer. Make sure to take down the Earth Dragon Organization. Good luck."

Seeing the uncle’s adorable demeanor, Li Jun couldn’t help but smile wryly, but he didn’t waste much time and directly dialed Zhao Bing’s number.

L Town Police Station.

Zhao Bing had just returned with some items from a hotel and was about to enter the police station when his phone suddenly rang in his pocket. He was initially startled, but then quickly realized the situation.

In a scenario like this, there were only two possibilities for someone to call him: one was if something big had happened in South Sea City, with a call from Xiaoliang, his assistant. The other was if Chen Tianlong or Zhang Yufei had succeeded.

Either way, Zhao Bing felt very anxious. If something happened in South Sea City and he couldn’t leave, it would be even more troubling.

If it was a call from Chen Tianlong or Zhang Yufei, it would be very exciting, because that would mean the time was ripe to strike against the Earth Dragon.

With this in mind, Zhao Bing immediately picked up the call and brought the phone to his ear, softly saying, "Hello, who am I speaking to?"

"Is this the Director? It’s me, Li Jun."

Li Jun finally heard Zhao Bing’s voice, and at this moment, he was so excited that he almost cried.

You must know, these days had been incredibly tough, constantly feeling the impulse to give up. If it weren’t for Chen Tianlong going in, they really would have had no hope.

Having lost contact with the outside world and with the evidence being moved, and unable to escape, the only option left was to wait for death.

"Ah? Li Jun, how can you be calling? Does that mean you’ve escaped?" Zhao Bing, being a smart man, knew that if Li Jun was able to make a call, he must not be inside the Earth Dragon anymore.

"Yes, Director, it was Chen Tianlong who helped me escape. But time is pressing; Director, quickly give the order to storm the Earth Dragon. There’s only half an hour left. Chen Tianlong and Zhang Yufei have already found the location of the goods," Li Jun urgently reminded, recalling the task at hand.

"Wow... they found it? That’s great; I knew they could do it."

Zhao Bing was so excited that his hands were shaking as he quickly said, "Alright, I’ll send a team over right away. Won’t you come straight to the L Town police station, and we can head over together?"

"I can’t. I’ll just wait for you on the road. There’s still over ten minutes left to get there, not much time. I’m afraid Chen Tianlong and the others can’t hold out any longer," Li Jun said hastily.

"Well... alright then, I’ll meet you on the road; I’m coming over right now."

With those words, Zhao Bing hung up the phone and quickly dashed into the police station. At the time, Director Qu was discussing something with colleagues, and seeing Zhao Bing rush in, he quickly got up.

"Old Hong, what’s up? Is there any news?" Director Qu asked.

"Yes, Old Qu, hurry, we need to head out now. Our people have found their secret stash of drugs, but we must arrive in time. I’m afraid if we’re late, it will be too late," Zhao Bing, aware of the seriousness of the situation, answered, knowing there was less than half an hour left.

"Ah? Alright, let’s head out now."

Director Qu responded; their team had been ready for a while, just waiting for the right moment to move.

He then turned to the nearby team leaders and said, "Attention, team leaders, we’ve found the evidence. Go straight into the Earth Dragon, leave no one standing, move out!"

"Yes!"

The five squad commanders responded in unison and quickly headed out.

Zhao Bing didn’t linger either, joining the team as they marched forth to the vehicles and headed toward their destination.

They were only fifteen minutes away from the Earth Dragon’s headquarters, so barring any unforeseen events, they should be able to reach safely in time.
