Time grows increasingly surreal, and a special pre-war atmosphere fills the car. The gaze of Liu Guoliang, like two blazing lamps, pierces everything within his sharp eyes. He glances at his watch again, his expression grave: the exact time is 4:50 PM. If everything goes as planned, the largest drug transaction in Jiangzhou in recent years will take place right before their eyes. Catching drug dealers is no joke. Today's drug dealers are all ruthless and reckless. They often operate with guns and drugs, fierce and cunning. A slight mistake could turn everything into chaos! Therefore, Liu Guoliang cannot afford to take it lightly.
This is a crossroads under the high-rise bridge of the Honghe Residential Area in the southern part of the city. The Honghe Overpass spans across different districts, towering and majestic. At this moment, the setting sun casts a golden glow over everything, and a gentle breeze rustles the leaves. The pedestrians are few and far between. A cluster of new residential buildings, each seven or eight stories tall, surround the area, scattered like stars, peaceful and harmonious. Liu Guoliang and his team are in a Toyota van parked near the crossroads on the south side of the overpass, far from the bridge base. The light brown glass on the car provides excellent cover, allowing them to observe the movements at the crossroads clearly. In the car, apart from the three plainclothes detectives from the Serious Crime Unit, there is also a special "passenger": a young drug dealer named Xu Manjiang, from Xianzhou, who was arrested during the morning anti-drug operation. His hands are cuffed, and he looks a bit weary. The young police officer, Zhao Xiaogang, who is guarding him, has to remind him frequently to stay alert and watch the few cars and pedestrians passing by the crossroads ahead.
"Hey, Captain Liu, take a look at this crossroads under the bridge. Does it seem like a suitable place for a large drug transaction? I just can't shake the feeling that it's not quite right," Chen Dong, the leader of Group A, suddenly breaks the long silence in the car while sitting in the front passenger seat. Liu Guoliang understands Chen Dong's doubts perfectly! His eyes are fixed on the road ahead as he skillfully says, "What's like or not like? Desolate wastelands, abandoned hotels—those are the places that fit! To be honest, drug dealers' transaction locations are always changing. If we don't notice them in advance, they could even conduct transactions right outside our police station, and there's nothing we can do about it; if we spot them in advance, no matter where they choose, it won't be suitable! It's that simple. Watch out, don't let your mind wander at this critical moment!" Chen Dong immediately raises his binoculars, observing the surroundings with a serious expression.
Time is approaching the moment when a drug transaction might—or might not—occur. The crossroads under the bridge remains normal; the action teams, who have been in their designated positions for two hours, show no signs of movement; and the small shops and stores on the streets are also under the control of this secret arrest operation, with no unusual activity. Liu Guoliang, who is in charge of the scene, still feels uneasy. He glances back at the drug dealer and calmly asks, "Xu Manjiang, I'm asking you one last time—are you sure the transaction location is this crossroads?" Xu Manjiang blinks his tired eyes and hesitates for a moment. Zhao Xiaogang forcefully pulls his arm and demands, "Answer truthfully!"
