Xiao Xue is deep in prison, years in prison for her, every day is suffering. The four cold walls, like the relentless shackles of destiny, have tightly encircled her. In this small space, she tried to find even a moment of peace within her heart, but the sins of the past followed her, like a surging tide that kept hitting her fragile spiritual defenses. At the same time, she cooperates fully with the police in their in-depth investigation of the intricate criminal network, trying to find a ray of redemption for the unforgivable crimes she once committed, as if groping for a faint ray of light in the endless darkness.
Xiong Yufang is also struggling in prison, she is always vigilant attention to the situation outside the wind and grass. She knows that her fate is closely intertwined with Xiao Xue, like twin vines, one honor and one loss. And behind that mysterious and unpredictable criminal network, she is keenly aware that there is a huge secret hidden enough to make the whole city shake. This secret is like a super bomb buried deep underground, once detonated, it will destroy everything. In this life-and-death situation, she decides to make a desperate attempt to get more information about the core of the criminal network by using some of the contacts she has quietly made in prison, just like a blind man groping in the dark. She carries a hint of luck in her heart, trying to use this as a bargaining chip, in exchange for the police on her leniency, as if the drowning man clinging to the last straw.
After some twists and turns, Xiong Yufang finally got a vital clue - one of the core figures of the criminal network, a mysterious, only known as Mr. Lin's man, will be in the near future in the edge of the city, an abandoned dock to carry out a huge amount of illegal transactions. This Mr. Lin, like a ghost hidden in the deepest darkness, has been manipulating the precise operation of the entire criminal network, his identity and whereabouts are extremely mysterious, as if wrapped in heavy fog. The police had previously tried to track him down many times by using a lot of manpower, material resources and advanced technology, but all of them were just like a stone sinking into the sea with nothing to show for it. Every time the clues are about to touch him, bizarrely broken, as if there is a pair of invisible hands, in the darkness of these clues will be erased one by one.
Xiong Yufang did not hesitate, as if grasping the last ray of life, this precious and incomparable clues quickly passed to the police. The moment the police received the tip, they were on high alert, as if they were cheetahs smelling their prey. They knew that this could be the perfect opportunity to completely dismantle the criminal network that had been ravaging the city for a long time, just like finally waiting for the dawn in the long dark night, and must not let it slip away easily. The police took immediate action, quickly assembled the most elite police force, set up a special action team and began to carefully plan a seamless arrest operation. They repeatedly studied the terrain of the abandoned wharf, as if studying the battlefield of a key battle, and formulated several sets of programs to deal with various emergencies, with every detail well thought out, striving to be foolproof.
On the night of the deal, the abandoned pier was completely shrouded in darkness, like a forgotten corner of the world. A few yellow street lamps in the sea wind blowing, shaking, flickering light, as if at any time will go out, can only barely cast a weird and twisted shadow in the darkness. The police in advance like a ghost quietly arranged around the pier heavy police force, snipers wearing camouflage clothing, as with the darkness of the ghost warrior, lurking in various hidden corners, their eyes through the sniper's scope, like a falcon locking the prey in general, closely staring at the pier of every movement, standing by, ready to give the criminals a fatal blow at the critical moment.
Mr. Lin led a group of men, like a group of ghosts appearing at the pier on time. They all looked arrogant and confident, not realizing that the shadow of death was approaching. They leisurely talked about the details of the deal in the darkness, as if this wasn't a sinful deal, but an ordinary business negotiation. "After this deal is done, we can call it quits for a while, the police have been watching too closely lately." Mr. Lin's voice was low and hoarse, as if it was a whisper coming from hell, it carried a creepy aura, every note seemed to reverberate in the darkness, sending shivers down one's spine.
Just in the nick of time when the transaction was about to take place, the police, like divine soldiers, suddenly launched a swift attack. The sound of sirens, like sharp arrows, instantly cut through the tranquility of the night sky, breaking the dreams of the criminals. Like tigers descending from the mountain, the policemen rushed towards the criminals with a strong and firm step, and a fearless determination in their eyes. Mr. Lin's men were in a panic, like ants on a hot pan, and they scrambled to pick up their weapons to resist. However, their usual arrogance at the moment under the police's powerful offensive instantly crumbled, where is the well-trained and well-equipped police opponent. In the fierce firefight, the sound of gunfire such as popping beans like a piece of sound, fire flashes in the darkness, criminals such as the wind in the candle, have fallen, the scene is a chaotic, screams and cries intertwined, as if the human inferno.
When Mr. Lin saw the situation, a flash of panic flashed in his eyes, but he was after all a veteran who had been in the dark world for many years, and he instantly reacted and tried to take advantage of the chaos to escape. He was as agile as a cheetah, his body was athletic, dodging left and right amidst the gunfire, and with his familiarity with the terrain, he ran wildly towards a speedboat at the pier. His figure appeared and disappeared in the darkness, as if he was one with the darkness. However, what he didn't know was that his every move was under the tight control of the police, just like a hunter's prey. Just when he was about to board the speedboat in the moment of life and death, a sniper decisively pulled the trigger, and the bullet whizzed out like lightning, accurately hitting his leg. Mr. Lin let out a mournful scream, like a wounded beast, his body lost balance and fell to the ground.
The police quickly rushed up and subdued Mr. Lin like a raging tide. During the arrest, the police accidentally discovered an encrypted hard disk that Mr. Lin was carrying. This hard disk shimmered with a mysterious metallic luster in the darkness, as if hiding countless secrets. The police immediately realized that this hard drive could be the key to unraveling the truth of the entire criminal network, as if it were a treasure. They quickly brought the hard disk back to the police station, and the technicians, like craftsmen facing a supreme treasure, carefully began to crack the work. After some painstaking efforts, the hard disk was finally cracked, the contents of which shocked everyone.
The hard disk recorded in detail the organizational structure of the entire criminal network, like an intricate dark spider web, each node represents a sinful soul; the list of personnel clearly lists the detailed information of each criminal, as if it is a sinful verdict; the evidence of the crime is as solid as a mountain, and one pile and one piece of bloody and brutal crimes are nakedly displayed in front of the crowd, which is shocking to the human eye; Behind the various interests involved is even more intricate and complex, like a mess, involving many forces and characters, involving huge amounts of money, the interests of the entanglement dazzling. More unexpected is that the hard disk also hides a video, the video clearly shows the Xiong Yufang was involved in criminal activities, her every expression, every action is full of sin and greed, as well as her and some government officials collusion with the evidence, those seemingly moral officials in the video and Xiong Yufang in collusion with the video, laughing and joking between the planning of all kinds of sinful activities. All of this shows conclusively that Xiong Yufang in the criminal network plays a more important role than the police imagine, she is not just an innocent victim or forced to participate in, but a deep criminal quagmire, unable to extricate themselves from the central figure.
With this key evidence in hand, the police decided to re-interrogate Xiong Yufang. In the interrogation room, the light is dim and depressing, the moment Xiong Yufang was brought in, her face instantly turned pale, as if she saw the coming of death. In the face of ironclad evidence, Xiong Yufang's psychological defense completely collapsed, her legs are soft, like a puddle of mud, paralyzed in the chair, no longer able to deny. She knew that all her crimes have been exposed in the sun, as being stripped naked in front of the crowd, there is no escape. She had to explain all her crimes, every word is full of remorse and despair. It turned out that Xiong Yufang has been inextricably linked to this criminal network from the very beginning, she is like a cunning spider, carefully weaving a big sinful web, using Xiao Xue's vengeful mentality, skillfully manipulating everything, trying to get more benefits on the road of crime. Not only was she involved in several smuggling, drug trafficking and murder cases, with her hands stained with the blood of innocents, but she also utilized her beauty and intelligence to corrode and pull in some weak-willed government officials like a poisonous snake to provide shelter for criminal activities, thus allowing this criminal network to grow unchecked and grow stronger in the darkness.
At the same time, the police interrogated Xiao Xue. When Xiao Xue was brought to the interrogation room, her heart was full of doubts and uneasiness. When the police placed Xiong Yufang's confession and the newly discovered evidence in front of her, she was struck by lightning and froze instantly, as if time had stopped flowing. She simply could not believe that she has been Xiong Yufang played in the palm of her hand, her hatred and revenge action, in Xiong Yufang's conspiracy and calculation, became so ridiculous and absurd. She recalled her own road to revenge, those who had experienced the pain, struggle and sacrifice, at this moment are like a dream bubble broken, leaving only endless remorse and self-blame. She felt incomparable anger, anger at her own stupidity and blindness, letting herself into such an irreversible situation; she also felt deep remorse, remorse for her own hands stained with blood, but only became a tool for Xiong Yufang's crimes, harming countless innocent people.
Xiao Xue completely collapsed in prison, she was like a puppet that had lost its soul, constantly blaming herself and crying. She clutched her head with both hands, as if this would free her from this horrible reality. Her cries echoed in the silence of the cell, full of despair and pain. She felt deeply guilty for her crime and was willing to accept the severe punishment of the law, even if it meant atoning for it with her own life. She knew that the sins she had committed were too heavy, and she had to pay the price in order to give an explanation to those who had been hurt by her.
As the truth about Xiong Yufang and Xiao Xue was revealed, the whole city was sensationalized. People were shocked at the rampant crime and the darkness of human nature as if they had heard a thunderbolt from a clear sky, as if a huge stone had been thrown into the surface of a calm lake, which set off a shocking wave. They couldn't imagine that so many crimes and conspiracies were hidden underneath this seemingly prosperous city. At the same time, people also expressed their heartfelt respect for the efforts and perseverance of the police, who were like a lighthouse in the darkness, bringing light and hope to the city in the midst of heavy fog. The case became a major event in the city's history, like a heavy bomb that triggered widespread concern and deep reflection in all sectors of society. People began to realize that in the pursuit of wealth and power, they must adhere to the bottom line of morality and law, or else they will fall into an endless abyss and never recover, just like Xiong Yufang and Xiao Xue.
And the police did not let their guard down after successfully smashing this criminal network. They are well aware that dark forces, like tenacious weeds, are inexhaustible by wildfires and grow again in the spring breeze, and may come back at any time. They must always maintain a high degree of vigilance, like guardians of the home, guarding the peace of the city. They continue to investigate deeply, not letting go of any clue that may be related to the crime, even if the clue is as thin as a hair. They are determined to bring all the evils hidden in the darkness to justice, so that the city will no longer be shrouded in darkness, and rejuvenate the light and vitality. Their eyes are firm and persistent, as if proclaiming to the whole dark world: justice will triumph over evil, and light will dispel darkness.
