As the enforcement squad arrived, Zhang Yu, Bai Zhenzhen, and Yue Jincheng all ceased their actions, even raising their hands to show their lack of intent to continue fighting.

Around them, blades of sword light weaved and darted.

These sword lights resembled bolts of lightning surging through the air, their frigid sword intent causing a stinging sensation on Zhang Yu’s hands and face.

Zhang Yu thought to himself, “Are these military-grade flying swords?”

He knew that unlike the civilian-grade flying swords he had seen before, these military-grade flying swords, used by the enforcement squad, could manifest sword qi into rainbows, forming sword light that could expand and contract at will!

Zhang Yu mused, “If these military-grade flying swords were to unleash their full power, they could probably slice us three like melons and vegetables!”

Simultaneously, four individuals clad in enforcement squad combat uniforms stood above Zhang Yu and the others!

With a quick glance, Zhang Yu could feel waves of surging qi and blood emanating from them, as if four great furnaces were hovering overhead!

“It must be a military-grade combat art!”

Zhang Yu thought to himself, “Military-grade flying swords, coupled with military-grade combat arts… even a Qi Refinement Realm Peak cultivator with decades of experience like Teacher Lei Jun or Teacher Wang Hai would likely be routed instantly, dying in a single exchange!”

And Zhang Yu knew that this was merely the armed strength of the Patrol Department, one of the eight major departments under the Celestial Court, located in the suburban Songyang City on the first level of Kunxu!

He sighed inwardly, “It is precisely because the Ten Great Sects strictly control military-grade and above cultivation arts, Dharma skeletons, and magical treasures that so many high school students, college students, corporate dogs, and even the wealthy abide by the rules set by the Ten Great Sects!”

“Ultimately, force is one of the most fundamental cornerstones behind all social rules!”

Meanwhile, Yue Jincheng on the other side remained utterly obedient, not daring to make any movements!

After becoming a security team member for the company, the first lesson Yue Jincheng learned in his onboarding training was to avoid any armed conflicts with any government or divine departments!

Especially with armed personnel, whose military-grade power was far beyond what corporate employees could withstand!

Getting injured or even killed in the process would result in no compensation, and the company would not provide any condolence money.

Therefore, Yue Jincheng was being cautious at this moment, avoiding any action that could be misconstrued!

He had heard stories of people simply raising a hand or reaching into a pocket, only to be suspected of attempting to retaliate and then instantly being riddled with flying swords!

The next moment, Zhang Yu and the others felt a silver beam of light sweep over them from the eyes of one of the armed personnel!

Then, that person looked at Zhang Yu and said, “Was it you who used the Thunderclap Talisman?”

Zhang Yu quickly pointed at Yue Jincheng and said, “He stole it from me!”

The person waved his hand, “I’m not asking you about that. We’ll discuss the details of the case later. I’m just asking you to settle the calling fee first!”

“Huh?”

“What do you mean?”

Reporting a crime and having to pay the bill before enforcement?

Even after living in Kunxu for a year, Zhang Yu felt shocked at this moment!

The person, named Gong Zhe, scoffed upon hearing this, “What ‘huh’? If you can’t even afford the calling fee, we’ll turn around and leave right away! You can call the constables yourself and wait slowly!”

Ever since the incident where the informant had insufficient funds after the enforcement squad took action, resulting in unpaid fees for the Thunderclap Talisman’s premium enforcement service, the Patrol Department had required payment before enforcement every time they were dispatched by a Thunderclap Talisman!

Hearing this, Yue Jincheng looked at Zhang Yu hopefully, secretly praying that he couldn’t afford it!

Yue Jincheng thought to himself, “This Zhang Yu is a penniless wretch. What if he really can’t afford it?”

Under everyone’s gaze, Zhang Yu took out his phone and said, “I’ll pay!”

The minimum cost for a Thunderclap Talisman dispatch was a 10,000 yuan calling fee, which Zhang Yu was naturally prepared for, and he obediently took out his phone to pay the bill!

Seeing the 10,000 yuan calling fee arrive, Gong Zhe nodded in satisfaction, his gaze towards Zhang Yu immediately filled with goodwill!

And whether it was Zhang Yu’s imagination or not, he felt that after he paid, the four armed personnel in the sky seemed even more energetic and valiant!

Gong Zhe puffed out his chest, looked at Zhang Yu, and said, “Honorable Thunderclap Talisman premium customer, greetings from Gong Zhe, a member of the Seventh District Patrol Team of Songyang City!”

“Please describe the specific details of the case!”

At this moment, Gong Zhe and the other three team members were looking at Zhang Yu with anticipation and excitement, thinking, “Kidnapping? Murder? Commercial dispute? Hopefully, there’s a tax evasion case!”

“How long has it been since the brothers have had a big one?”

“Ideally, something with a value of tens of millions or more!”

It wasn’t Gong Zhe and his team’s fault for being so hungry and eager. As armed personnel of the Patrol Team, their income had been declining year by year!

Gong Zhe often sighed inwardly, “Alas, public security is getting better and better. Everyone likes to play dirty tricks and doesn’t like to use knives. How can we combat personnel create our own performance? Eight hours of work, clocking out on time every day, and there’s no overtime even if we want to. We can only do logistics and write materials for other departments to earn some extra money and barely make a living!”

At this moment, Gong Zhe and his team were looking at Zhang Yu, hoping that he could give them a big case!

Zhang Yu pointed at Yue Jincheng and said, “He wanted to steal my phone. After I discovered him, he tried to run away. My classmate and I tried to stop him, but he hit us instead!”

Gong Zhe was silent for a moment before asking again, “That’s it?”

You used a Thunderclap Talisman to call everyone here for such a small matter?

In that instant, the spirits of Gong Zhe and his team, which had just been high, immediately slumped again!

Gong Zhe said indifferently, “Settle the bill first!”

Looking at the 8,000 yuan fee on the bill, Zhang Yu couldn’t help but ask, “Why is it 8,000 yuan? You just flew over here and didn’t even fight, right?”

Gong Zhe glanced at him and said indifferently, “This is a protected area. Do we not need an entrance ticket, breathing fees, or exhalation fees to enter?

And later, taking you back to handle the case, collecting statements, and investigating evidence… Don’t these require labor hours and workload?”

Zhang Yu helplessly paid 5,000 yuan and then said to Bai Zhenzhen, “Zhenzhen, I’m out of money. Can you pay another 3,000 yuan for me?”

Seeing this scene, Gong Zhe and his team became even more disappointed, “How can he be so poor and still use a Thunderclap Talisman? Shouldn’t he just call the constables obediently?”

After receiving the money, Gong Zhe said, “Alright, the three of you come with us!” A moment later, Zhang Yu and the others arrived at a patrol station in the distant suburbs of Songyang!

As the informants, Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen were taken to an office in the case handling area!

Gong Zhe said indifferently, “Wait here. Someone will come to talk to you later to understand the situation!”

Zhang Yu said, “Oh, by the way, that person had an accomplice who ran away before you arrived. Maybe you can check the nearby surveillance cameras and ticket purchase records to find him!”

Gong Zhe frowned and interrupted, “Alright, we have our own ways of handling the case. You don’t need to teach us!”

Gong Zhe really couldn’t muster any interest in such a phone snatching case. With this time, he would rather do a part-time job to earn more!

After Gong Zhe left, Bai Zhenzhen glanced at the camera in the office and didn’t speak to Zhang Yu!

Zhang Yu opened his phone and informed the Four Directional Wandering Deity, Deng Bingding, about the matter!

Of course, unlike the simple phone theft incident he told Gong Zhe and the others, Zhang Yu added his own speculation in his conversation with Deng Bingding!

For example, he suspected that the other party had been following him recently, secretly filming his practice scenes, and investigating his plans to participate in the Foundation Establishment Examination!

After all, Zhang Yu couldn’t tell the Patrol Team about information related to the Foundation Establishment Examination! In response to Zhang Yu’s message, Deng Bingding only replied with three thumbs up!

Zhang Yu wondered, “What does she mean? Is she going to help or not?”

Fox Fairy chuckled and said in Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen’s minds, “According to my understanding of the Righteous Gods, three thumbs up is a relatively high evaluation. Anything higher than that would be three salutes!”

“These are all insider terms of the Righteous Gods. You’ll understand naturally as you see them more often!”

Then, Zhang Yu also sent a message to Yun Ni, describing the process of his phone being stolen and being taken to the Patrol Bureau. Yun Ni replied, “Which Patrol Bureau?

Yun Ni: I’ll find a familiar person for you! By the way, have you had a medical examination?

Yun Ni: If it’s mediation, what’s your bottom-line price?”

Looking at the lines of text sent by Yun Ni, Zhang Yu knew that Yun Ni was treating the case as an ordinary theft and assault, teaching him how to get more compensation from the other party!

About ten minutes later, while Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen were waiting and cultivating, Gong Zhe returned to the office again, but this time Gong Zhe had a smile on his face: “If your Captain Yun hadn’t contacted me, I wouldn’t have known that you two are also from the Patrol Team. Why didn’t you say so earlier? I’m very familiar with your Captain Yun. We even had dinner together last month!”

After being greeted by Yun Ni, Gong Zhe’s gaze towards Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen seemed to be tinged with a hint of warmth.

He said, “Don’t worry, you two are completely victims in this matter! I’ll ask someone to come over and take your statement in a moment, and then you can leave.

As for that guy, he’s really daring, daring to attack a Divine Assistant in broad daylight. He’s going to have to pay dearly this time!”

After speaking, Gong Zhe left again!

His performance surprised Zhang Yu a bit, who thought to himself, “It seems that Yun Ni has quite a bit of face in Songyang City.”

But Gong Zhe didn’t return for a full half hour!

Zhang Yu became impatient, couldn’t help but want to go out and inquire about the situation, but found that the door to the office had been locked. At the same time, Bai Zhenzhen said, “Yu, look!”

Zhang Yu followed the direction pointed by Bai Zhenzhen, and through the glass window of the office, he could see Yue Jincheng walking out of the reception area swaggeringly, accompanied by several patrol team members!

Bai Zhenzhen said in surprise, “He’s going to be released just like that?”

And as if seeing Bai Zhenzhen and Zhang Yu looking over from behind the window, Yue Jincheng smiled slightly at the two of them, and then turned and left!
