Chapter 27: The Rain Is Coming and the Wind is Full of Buildings

The sound of a metal door sliding open echoed through the room, allowing the natural light from outside to illuminate the previously dim space.

"Detainee Chu Tiannan, get up and move!" accompanied by a cold reminder, Chu Tiannan, who was sitting on a wooden bed, suddenly opened his eyes.

Those sharp eyes, profound and inscrutable as a blade's edge.

"Are you pretending to be a martial artist now that you're in prison?" Seeing Chu Tiannan like this, the prison guard sneered disdainfully.

After all, every prisoner locked up in a prison does the same. They hope to one day become a martial artist, hoping to redeem themselves through their achievements.

But it's better than wasting their lives here!

Chu Tiannan walked through the prison corridor in his prison uniform, looking calmly at the young prison warden coming towards him. Meanwhile, the warden's gaze fell on Chu Tiannan, his expression pensive.

The two passed each other in silence, without a word exchanged.

"Is this person Chu Tiannan?" After passing Chu Tiannan, the warden turned and asked his subordinate.

"Yes, warden, do you have any orders?" a prison guard nodded.

"Have the people in the cell check on him, but don't cause any fatalities!"

"Yes!"

South China Base City, South District Police Station

At this moment, the hall was unusually lively. Captain Yuan, who was on duty today, walked out and frowned.

"What's all the fuss about?"

"Captain Yuan, you're here. The director is not in, and only you can handle this matter now," said a sweating young officer.

Obviously, the situation was not as simple as they had imagined.

"What's causing such a commotion?" Captain Yuan furrowed his brows lightly. Despite this being a police station, he walked directly into the hall.

A stunningly beautiful young woman in a yellow dress was standing at the police station's front desk, accompanied by two middle-aged men.

"Are you three here to report a case to my South District Police Station?" Captain Yuan, seeing the clear and beautiful face of the young woman, couldn't help but sigh inwardly, but his expression remained calm.

"We're here to pick up someone!" At this point, one of the middle-aged men beside the yellow-dressed young woman stepped forward and said.

"Was there a young man named Chu Tiannan who was detained here a few days ago?"

"Yes, there was a young man by that name, and he has been transferred to a nearby prison," Captain Yuan said, furrowing his brows. "After all, this Chu Tiannan is being charged with intentional injury, and the injured party, Luo Jizheng, is preparing to sue him!"

"Do you know that the person you are detaining is a martial artist?" However, the next words from the middle-aged man caught Captain Yuan off guard and caused him to spit out the water from his mouth in surprise, exclaiming, "A martial artist?"

"It's impossible. We've checked his information; he was one of the survivors from the original East China Base City and just a senior student at the Martial Arts Academy. How could he be a martial artist?"

After all, for the public security organs, a simple check of identity information would reveal the truth immediately. So, although Captain Yuan didn't believe it, he couldn't help but feel doubtful.

After all, the identity of a martial artist is not something that can be faked, yet the other party spoke so seriously.

There must be something fishy going on.

"Uncle Wang," seeing Captain Yuan's hesitation, the young woman in yellow dress whispered to the middle-aged man behind her.

The latter directly handed over the identity information in his hand. After Captain Yuan took a look, he was shocked.

Wang Jinhai, instructor at the Eastern District Martial Arts Academy!

And there was also a document confirming his advanced martial artist status!

"This... this," Captain Yuan was completely dumbfounded, but then, at that moment, he suddenly comprehended and asked the police officer next to him.

"Quickly check which prison this Chu Tiannan is in!"

Seeing that things were not right, the police officer verified the information and came back to report.

"Captain Yuan, because all the prisoners in the South District prison are sentenced to death, this Chu Tiannan is in the East District prison!"

"Dispatch a team to pick him up!" Captain Yuan didn't hesitate, stood up, and said solemnly.

"But Captain Yuan, Chu Tiannan is being charged with intentional injury. Just picking him up like this might upset the East District prison..." the police officer hesitated.

"Don't worry about the East District prison's face; people from the Eastern District Martial Arts Academy are involved. This case is no longer under our jurisdiction." Captain Yuan shook his head and urged.

"Hurry!"

"Yes, Captain!"

Seeing the swift action, Luo'Er also walked out of the police station and thanked Uncle Wang beside her.

"Uncle Wang, I'm counting on you this time."

"This is a small matter. In the future, you won't have to run to your family. In the Eastern District, as long as this kid does have martial artist abilities, I can handle it." The middle-aged man smiled.

It was clear from his demeanor and physique that he was extraordinary.

However, Captain Yuan and Luo'Er were not aware that in the South District Police Station, at the same time they were feeling anxious, something major was about to unfold in the East District prison.
