Chapter 1102: Chapter 1102

"What method?" Ye Qing asked quickly.

Su Kaicheng replied in a deep voice, "The army!"

"The army?" Ye Qing was stunned. Is this the method Su Kaicheng was talking about?

Su Kaicheng said, "The police in Liaoshen City can't be mobilized. To control the situation, we can only ask the army to intervene."

"Will the army intervene?" Ye Qing asked hesitantly. He was also from a military background, so he understood many taboos in the military. Although the army possesses absolute military power, they are not allowed to interfere in local affairs. Moreover, matters like anti-drug operations are the responsibility of the police. If the army handles it, it would be considered overstepping their authority. Thus, the military absolutely wouldn't handle such matters.

"Hehe..." Su Kaicheng chuckled, saying, "To get the military to do something, only the top military officials can make it happen. The military and the government are separate; even my father can't mobilize military personnel."

"Then what do we do?" Ye Qing was even more surprised. Su Kaicheng wouldn't be so idle as to mention something impossible, right?

"However, there's an exception to everything." Su Kaicheng smiled and said, "For the military, this is actually a simple matter. As long as the high-ranking officers in the Liaodong Province military are willing to help, with just a word, they can mobilize the troops in Liaoshen City to arrest people."

Of course, Ye Qing knew this, but the problem was, would the high command in the Liaodong Province Military Region be willing to help?

Su Kaicheng smiled again and continued, "Feng Guoxing, the Chief Political Commissar of the Liaodong Province Military Region, is from the same hometown as Commander Zhou Bolong of the Eastern Province Military Region, and they are from the same unit as Director Liu Changping. As long as Commander Zhou is willing to speak up, this matter will be very easy to handle!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Qing understood Su Kaicheng's implication. To leverage the military's power, he would have to find Zhou Bolong. However, this matter wasn't difficult. Zhou Bolong has always been someone who dislikes evil and is very supportive of Ye Qing's endeavors. As long as Ye Qing gives him a call, he would certainly help.

"As for Commander Zhou, that's up to you," Su Kaicheng laughed. "I heard you have a good relationship with him, so calling him shouldn't be a problem, right? I can't help you with this; our department doesn't handle these matters."

"No problem!" Ye Qing stated. "In that case, I'll call Commander Zhou now."

"Alright." Su Kaicheng paused, then said, "By the way, when are you coming back to Shenchuan City? The project in the Capital has been approved, and soon someone will go to Shenchuan City to conduct an on-site evaluation of your orphanage, followed by the introduction of support policies. Rest assured, my father has secured a lot of support for you. After all, this is the first private orphanage in Huaxia, and it's the direction we want to develop in the future."

"Really?" Ye Qing couldn't help but feel delighted. Since Huangfu Ziyu was kidnapped, this was the best news he'd heard in days.

Su Kaicheng replied, "Of course, hurry back. The evaluation team from the Capital is probably about to head over. As the person in charge of the orphanage, you must be present!"

Ye Qing shouted, "Don't worry, I'll return in a couple of days!"

Putting down the phone, Ye Qing felt a surge of excitement. The fat man next to him glanced at him and said, "Buddy, just now... just now you said you wanted to mobilize the army to arrest people, is that true?"

"Any doubts?" Ye Qing countered.

"No, no, I... I was just asking..." The fat man chuckled awkwardly. It was clear that the way he looked at Ye Qing had changed.

Previously, he thought that Ye Qing's attempt to go against Li Changyuan was like hitting a rock with an egg, because he knew that almost all the police in Liaoshen City were under Li Changyuan's control. How could Ye Qing possibly get the police to arrest Li Changyuan? But now, hearing that Ye Qing was going to mobilize the army to arrest Li Changyuan, his attitude changed immediately. The fat man wasn't stupid; he obviously knew that if someone could mobilize the army to arrest people, that person surely had a remarkable background. At the very least, dealing with Li Changyuan shouldn't be a problem!

Ye Qing didn't pay attention to the fat man and directly called Zhou Bolong. The old commander certainly supported Ye Qing completely, and upon hearing the situation, agreed immediately without a second thought and called Feng Guoxing.

After Ye Qing hung up the phone, within less than ten minutes, a call came from an unfamiliar number. Ye Qing answered, and a solemn voice came from the other end, "Hello, I am Wei Yongnan, commander of the Infantry 951 Battalion of the Second Military Region in Liaoshen City. I just received an order from the Provincial Military Region to assist you in completing your mission. The entire 951 Battalion is ready and can depart at any time!"

Ye Qing didn't expect Feng Guoxing to work so efficiently. It had only been ten minutes, and everything was already arranged. It seemed that Zhou Bolong's phone call was indeed highly effective. Feng Guoxing was one of the few high-ranking officers in the Liaodong Province Military Region, and with just a word from him, such matters were very simple.

The strength of an entire battalion was enough to deal with the Li Family people, and Ye Qing felt much more at ease. He first instructed Wei Yongnan to stand by for the moment. He planned to wait until tomorrow, after Ao Yangrong entered the Li Family, before taking action to arrest people. First, they could capture Li Changyuan and others in one fell swoop, and second, they could also use it as a deterrent against Ao Yangrong and Northern Martial Zen, letting them know the Li Family still had a solid background.

The fat man listened to Ye Qing's entire phone call and became even more in awe of Ye Qing. He had already realized that Ye Qing had genuinely mobilized the army. And this time, Li Changyuan and others were truly doomed.

After arranging this matter properly, Ye Qing and the others returned to the hotel in the city. Ye Qing brought the fat man back to the hotel and happened to bring those two people along as well. However, he opened one more room and locked the three inside.

Upon returning to the hotel, Ye Qing woke up the bodyguard and the driver. The two had been hit at the coma acupoint and had been asleep for so long that they didn't know what had happened. This time upon waking up, the two were clearly a bit confused, still unsure how they ended up here.

Ye Qing prepared some food to fill the three persons' stomachs. The bodyguard and driver tried several times to ask the fat man what had happened, but were glared back by the fat man's eyes. The fat man previously had some other thoughts, but seeing Ye Qing's capability now, he didn't dare harbor any malicious ideas anymore; he just wanted to cling to Ye Qing, at least to reduce his sentence somewhat.

Watching the three finish eating, Ye Qing then tapped the coma acupoints on the three and made them fall asleep in this room. Of course, to prevent any accidents, Ye Qing tied the three altogether to avoid them waking up suddenly and escaping.

After dealing with the three, Ye Qing returned to his room. This time, as before, there were clear signs indicating someone had opened the room. That is to say, during the time Ye Qing was out, someone had entered his room again.

Ye Qing frowned slightly. It appears that someone in Liaoshen City had been watching his every move. But who exactly was watching him? Who dared to break into his room twice?

Ye Qing didn't make a fuss; he returned to the room, changed clothes, and left the room again. After going out, Ye Qing hailed a taxi and left directly.

Ye Qing had just left for less than twenty minutes when the door of the room opposite suddenly opened, and a fat man, weighing about two hundred pounds but less than 1.7 meters tall, came out from the room. This fat man, round and stocky, looked like a ball.

Though the fat man was round, he moved quite deftly. He walked out of the room, quietly looked around, and confirmed no one was nearby before he went directly to Ye Qing's door. He took out a card from his pocket, inserted it into the door gap, swiped it, and the door opened immediately.

If anyone had seen this, they would certainly be shocked. This fat man was actually a lock-picking expert.

The fat man entered the room, closed the door casually, glanced around inside for a while, and his eyes fixed on the box Ye Qing left on the table.

"Hmph, I said it, can you carry this thing with you forever?" The fat man muttered, walked over, picked up the box, and opened it to take a look.

Inside the box wasn't anything else; it was indeed Ye Qing's Seven-Star Ancient Sword.

"Looks like an artifact, but can this thing sell for billions?" The fat man held the Seven-Star Ancient Sword in his hand, shook it casually a few times, and said, "That old guy wouldn't be deceiving Fat Lord, right?"

Clearly, the fat man had no clue about the true value of the Seven-Star Ancient Sword. He came to steal the sword just for money. This is entirely different from others, because others seek the Seven-Star Ancient Sword for the Heaven Earth Man Three Gates.

"Forget it, let's take it away first. Even if it can't sell for billions, at least it can sell for hundreds of thousands, enough for Fat Lord to eat for a while!" The fat man muttered, packed the Seven-Star Ancient Sword back into the box, picked up the whole box, and was about to leave.

At this moment, a voice suddenly echoed in the room: "Friend, taking my things isn't quite appropriate, is it?"

The room was empty, and this sudden voice scared the fat man, causing him to drop the box in his hand onto the ground.

The fat man looked around, there was no one in the room, his expression became more frightened, and he said tremblingly: "You... you... are you human or ghost?"

Not seeing anyone but hearing a voice would certainly make one think they've seen a ghost; that's exactly the fat man's thought now.

"Of course, I'm human!" With these words, the cabinet door in the room opened, and Ye Qing stepped out.

The fat man's eyes almost bulged out, seeing Ye Qing come out from the cabinet, knowing the other was indeed human. But he couldn't believe Ye Qing was still in the room.

"You... you... didn't you leave?" The fat man with his mouth wide open said: "I saw you get into the taxi and saw you leave."

Ye Qing replied: "I got into the taxi, but I came back!"

"How... how did you come back?" The fat man's eyes were about to pop out and said: "I... I didn't see you come back, did I? I have been observing here; how come I didn't see you come over and open the door?"
