Xu Bai brought Su Meng to the dance floor on the first floor. At the moment, the lights on the dance floor had been turned off so the entire hall was illuminated by the daylight streaming in through the door and windows.

Xu Bai ignored the waiters and guards lining up on the left. He walked straight to the waitresses and dancers who were gathered together. The waitresses, who were dressed normally, looked at Xu Bai and Su Meng curiously.

Behind the waitress, the dancers, dressed in easy-to-take-off clothes, looked away when they saw Xu Bai and Su Meng. Although attire like that wasn’t illegal, the law around it didn’t explicitly say that it was legal. With this industry, it was basically up to the state’s regulations.

But…in the end, this industry was not very good.

Xu Bai’s target wasn’t the group of people who were avoiding his gaze. With just one glance, Xu Bai found the group of people he was looking for.

“Those six.”

Xu Bai pointed at the six women who were hiding behind a group of dancers with their heads lowered. He said to Su Meng, “Find a few female patrol officers and take them to the hospital for a checkup. Then, bring them back to the station.”

Su Meng looked over and saw a scar on the face of one of the six women. She thought of the whip she had found and nodded at Xu Bai. “I understand, Master.”

Xu Bai nodded.

Xu Bai’s phone rang. He took out his phone and glanced at the number. He walked to the side and picked up the call. It was the team leader.

“You’re at the Night Rose?”

“Yes.”

Xu Bai walked to the door and saw the homeland agent’s car parked outside the cordon. He heard the sound of a bottle cap being unscrewed on the other end of the phone.

“Boss, did the chief call you?”

“Yes, Su Bancheng called the chief. He wants the case.”

“Should I give it to him?”

“You tell me.”

Nero Zhou stood up and left the bedroom with his empty wolfberry cup. He walked to the living room. “Do you think we should give this case to Su Bancheng?”

Xu Bai smiled and said, “I don’t think there’s any use. If I say no and the higher-ups want me to give up the case, there’s nothing I can do.”

Actually, it didn’t matter if he gave it to her. He had just checked the scene. He had not left any traces at the scene. Moreover, it seemed that the witnesses had been replaced.

This included Liu Qiang, who claimed to be the person who reported the case, and his four subordinates. There was no Level indication. They were just ordinary people. It was the same for the group of men and women on the dance floor on the first floor.

It was almost certain that before he and Su Meng arrived, before the patrol officers arrived, all the people with Levels in the Night Rose had basically been transferred away or left.

It was obvious that these people didn’t want to deal with law enforcement either. In that case, now that the case was handed over to Homeland Security, he wasn’t afraid that Homeland Security would find any clues about him. If he gave this case to Homeland Security, it wouldn’t put him in any danger.

“Cut it out, kid. Don’t think that I can’t tell what you’re trying to say. Just tell me if you want this case or not.”

Xu Bai raised his eyebrows.

“Yes.”

“Then investigate. This is Feng City. It’s not up to Homeland Security to make the decisions.”

“…”

The line disconnected. Xu Bai looked at the screen. He stood there and thought for a moment before shaking his head.

Xu Bai seemed to have thought of something. He turned around and happened to see Su Meng and a few female patrol officers walking out with six women who were wrapped in police uniforms and had their heads lowered.

Su Meng walked to Xu Bai’s side. “Master, I’ll go to the hospital first.”

Xu Bai pulled Su Meng back. “Forget it. Come back to the station with me.”

Su Meng was taken aback.

Xu Bai did not explain anything. He pulled Su Meng toward her red sports car that was parked not far away. The phone call made Xu Bai realize something.

According to Mr. Zhou, the person who called the chief was none other than Su Meng’s uncle, Su Bancheng.

But Su Meng was here.

It was not impossible for Su Bancheng to not know. However, if Su Bancheng knew about this place from the beginning, it was unlikely that he would let Su Meng bring him here to get involved in this matter.

After Xu Bai got into the car, he looked at Su Meng in the driver’s seat and frowned. “Did you sneak out on your own?”

Su Meng hung up the vibrating phone in her pocket again. When she heard Xu Bai’s words, she subconsciously froze and turned to look at Xu Bai.

“Your uncle doesn’t know you’re here?”

“…”

Su Meng opened her mouth, then lowered her head and said, “I secretly heard from my uncle on the phone that there was a case here. I snuck out to look for you.”

Of course, Xu Bai thought to himself.

However, he could roughly guess why Su Meng did this.

“Aren’t you worried about the danger? Don’t forget that you’re the one who killed Liu San. Didn’t your uncle say that his brother, Xiao Jingnan, is very dangerous?”

“Don’t worry, Master. I calculated the risk before I came out.”

“What?”

Su Meng took out a card with a faint fragrance from her pocket. Her eyes were slanted like crescent moons. “It’s not dangerous. Besides, I believe Master can protect me.”

Xu Bai opened his mouth but he didn’t know what to say anymore.

Su Meng eavesdropped on her uncle’s phone call at home. Then, she snuck out, found Xu Bai, and brought him over to take over the Night Rose case. Obviously, Su Meng knew from the beginning that the case here was related to the superhumans.

Su Meng knew very well that she had not brought Xu Bai here to die. Therefore, there was only one other possibility.

“You want me to join the Special Disaster Operations Unit?”

“Uh-uh.”

Su Meng’s eyes were like crescent moons as she looked at Xu Bai and nodded repeatedly. “Master, you’re so smart. I haven’t even said anything and you’ve already guessed it.”

Xu Bai rolled his eyes. “Don’t interrupt. Just tell me why.”

Su Meng lowered her head. “I told you, I don’t want to go to the Special Disaster Operations Team unless Master comes with me. I want to stay with Master.”

Xu Bai was speechless when he heard this.

“Didn’t it ever occur to you that your uncle would be angry if he found out?”

“He won’t.”

Su Meng looked up and took out her phone with a smile. “I won’t answer his calls. Isn’t that enough?”

Xu Bai looked at the caller ID on the phone.

“…”
