Ye Haoxuan took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down—now was not the time to act rashly. The most urgent task was to raid the two secret outposts, seize the smuggled goods, capture the assassins inside, prevent the trail from going cold, and at the same time prevent the goods from entering the market and causing even greater harm.
“We can’t wait any longer,” Ye Haoxuan said firmly, and immediately made arrangements. “Mobilize the police force now, split into two groups, and simultaneously raid the two strongholds in Tsim Sha Tsui and Mong Kok. Once the operation is launched, it must be swift and decisive to avoid alerting the enemy, and we must not give the assassins in the strongholds a chance to destroy evidence or break through and escape.”
“I agree,” Sandy nodded, fully approving of Ye Haoxuan’s plan. “The two strongholds are not far apart, but a simultaneous attack will prevent them from supporting each other. However, with your arm injured, it’s not advisable for you to personally lead the charge. Just stay at the police station to command.”
Ye Haoxuan shook his head, his eyes resolute, showing no sign of backing down: "No, these two strongholds are crucial, I must go personally. Don't worry, it's just a minor injury, it won't affect the operation. Besides, the assassins in the strongholds are all top experts from the Black Blade Group, they are ruthless, only I can ensure the operation goes smoothly if I lead the team myself."
He knew that although his arm was injured, as an inspector, he had to be at the forefront in such a critical operation to encourage his officers and better control the situation on the scene and deal with emergencies.
Sandy, seeing the determination in Ye Haoxuan's eyes, knew his mind was made up and there was no point in trying to persuade him further. She could only nod and admonish him, "Then you must be careful and never push yourself. During the operation, you must prioritize your own safety. The assassins in the stronghold are skilled at ambushes, so remember not to underestimate them."
“I understand,” Ye Haoxuan smiled and gently patted Sandy’s shoulder. “The interrogation is your responsibility. Continue interrogating Sato Ichiro and see if you can uncover more clues about Miyamoto Musashi, as well as the specific details of the Black Blade Group’s smuggling route. Also, arrange for people to closely monitor the area around the two bases. Report to me immediately if anything unusual is found.”
“Don’t worry, leave it to me,” Sandy nodded, her tone firm. “I will continue interrogating Sato Ichiro and will not let any clue slip by. I will also arrange for people to cooperate with your operation throughout and pass on information at any time.”
Ye Haoxuan nodded, and without further delay, immediately picked up his phone and dialed the number of the police station's action team captain. His tone was serious and firm: "Notify all members of the action team to assemble immediately, take your weapons and equipment, and assemble in the police station compound in five minutes. There is an emergency operation. Also, dispatch two police vans to Tsim Sha Tsui and Mong Kok respectively. Do not fail to do so."
"Yes, Inspector Ye! I guarantee the mission will be completed!" The efficient and firm voice of the action team leader came from the other end of the phone.
After hanging up, Ye Haoxuan dialed Moon's number again, his tone urgent: "Moon, immediately arrange for your men to go to the old building on Haiphong Road in Tsim Sha Tsui and the abandoned warehouse on Dundas Street in Mong Kok to secretly surround the two locations, monitor the activity inside the strongholds, and prevent anyone from entering or leaving. Once you see the police moving, immediately cooperate with us to block all escape routes to prevent the assassins from escaping."
“Received, Haoxuan,” A-MOON’s voice came immediately, tinged with seriousness. “I will arrange for manpower to arrive at the designated location within ten minutes to surround and monitor the area, ensuring that no assassin escapes. In addition, the protection of Sato Ichiro’s family has been arranged. The manpower is in place and will be secretly guarding them throughout the entire process, without any mishaps.”
“Good, well done,” Ye Haoxuan breathed a sigh of relief. “Thank you for your hard work, MOON. Keep communications open during the operation, and report to me immediately if anything happens.”
"understand!"
After hanging up the phone, Ye Haoxuan picked up his police cap from the table, put it on, and checked his sidearm to make sure everything was in order. Then, he glanced at his injured arm, moved it slightly, and although it was still a little painful, it was enough to handle the situation.
“I’m off,” Ye Haoxuan said to Sandy, his tone firm. “Call me immediately if there’s any progress in the interrogation.”
“Go ahead without worry,” Sandy nodded, her eyes filled with worry yet also with complete trust. “Be careful, I’ll be waiting for your good news.”
Ye Haoxuan nodded, then turned and walked out of the office without lingering.
At this moment, all the officers of the action team had assembled in the police station compound. Dressed in neat uniforms and carrying pistols, batons, and other weapons, they stood tall and straight, their eyes resolute, awaiting Ye Haoxuan's orders. Two armored vehicles were already running, lights flashing, ready to depart at any moment.
Ye Haoxuan strode up to the officers, his sharp gaze sweeping over everyone present. His tone was serious and firm: "Brothers, we have an urgent operation. The Black Blade Group has two secret smuggling hideouts in Tsim Sha Tsui and Mong Kok, containing large quantities of drugs, specially made weapons, and several ruthless assassins. We're splitting into two groups to raid both hideouts simultaneously, seize the smuggled goods, capture all the assassins, and ensure that no one escapes!"
"Yes, sir!" all the officers responded in unison, their voices loud and clear, echoing throughout the police station compound, filled with fighting spirit and determination.
“Very good,” Ye Haoxuan nodded and continued to deploy, “The first team, led by me, will travel in a police van to the old building on Haiphong Road in Tsim Sha Tsui to raid the secret base in Tsim Sha Tsui. The second team, led by Captain Li of the action team, will travel in another police van to the abandoned warehouse on Dundas Street in Mong Kok to raid the secret base in Mong Kok.”
