Chapter 103 Conflict
Zheng Zhongshan and Zeng Qixia rushed out of the dimly lit warehouse and arrived at the front of the battlefield.
The two steadied themselves and quickly looked in the direction of the sounds of fighting.
A fierce battle was taking place at the warehouse entrance.
Su Qian was being relentlessly suppressed by Chu Qi, trapped not far from the warehouse entrance by Chu Qi's relentless attacks, and was in a very difficult situation.
Faced with Chu Qi's fierce offensive, Su Qian was unable to mount an effective counterattack and could only do his best to use the Faiz lightsaber for passive defense.
On the other hand, Ma Mingzhe's situation is equally worrying.
Because the injuries he sustained from being attacked by Chu Qi had not yet healed, he was unable to unleash his full strength.
At this moment, he could only brace himself and rely on his agile movements to dodge left and right, trying to delay Guan Cheng's attack and find an opportunity to launch a counterattack, but with little success.
Seeing the critical situation, Zheng Zhongshan turned around without hesitation and shouted loudly to Zeng Qixia beside him with a serious expression: "Qixia, go and help Captain Ma quickly."
"I'm going to support Su Qian, so please be careful!" Before he could finish speaking and before Zeng Qixia could even reply, Zheng Zhongshan had already gripped the Kaixa bladed spear in his hand and slashed at Chu Qi like an arrow released from a bow.
Upon hearing Zheng Zhongshan's words, Zeng Qixia nodded heavily.
Without the slightest hesitation, he nimbly drew his Deita pistol from his waist, aimed at Guan Cheng's back, and repeatedly pulled the trigger.
Several crisp gunshots rang out, and several light bullets emitting purple light shot towards Guan Cheng like meteors.
Immediately afterwards, Zeng Qixia flashed forward, rushing towards Guan Cheng's back like a nimble cheetah.

Meanwhile, in the spacious and brightly lit conference room of the Special Affairs Bureau base in Harbin, the atmosphere was heavy yet somewhat eerie.
After the other staff of the Special Affairs Bureau had finished their orderly withdrawal, it seemed that only the heads of various departments remained in this conference room in the entire base.
Sitting at the head of the table was Director Zhong, who was leisurely flipping through the various reports laid out in front of him, his expression focused and serious.
Sometimes, he would gently put down the documents in his hand, reach for the teacup beside him, slowly lift the lid, and then elegantly take a sip of the steaming tea, looking relaxed and composed.
However, in stark contrast to Director Zhong were the heads of various departments sitting below.
Their situations were vastly different, clearly distinct.
There are some people who are as anxious as ants on a hot pan, restless and scratching their heads, their eyes revealing anxiety and impatience.
Another group of people were relatively calm, sitting quietly in their seats, but their slightly furrowed brows and occasional clenched fists revealed that they were not as calm as they appeared.
Among these people, the most conspicuous was undoubtedly Minister Ma, the military representative who had previously rebuked Director Zhong.
At this moment, his face was ashen and extremely ugly, and a fine layer of sweat even appeared on his forehead.
He kept raising his left wrist, his eyes fixed on the exquisite watch, as if every passing second was agonizing for him.
After waiting patiently for a while, time seemed to drag on. Minister Ma finally couldn't contain himself any longer and slowly raised his head to look in the direction where Director Zhong was.
However, what came into view was Director Zhong's leisurely and carefree demeanor, showing no intention of letting them go anytime soon.
Seeing this, Minister Ma reluctantly withdrew his gaze, then turned his attention to the person sitting next to him and quickly gave him a wink.
After noticing Minister Ma's signal, the man nodded slightly, indicating that he understood his intention.
After a short while, while everyone was still immersed in this oppressive atmosphere...
Suddenly, a loud bang was heard—it turned out that the man had slammed his hand on the table in front of him, then stood up abruptly and shouted at the top of his lungs, "Director Zhong Guanghua! What exactly do you want?"
"Do you no longer regard the military and the cabinet at all?"
After shouting this, the man paused briefly, then quickly scanned everyone present with a sharp gaze.
He then turned his attention back to Director Zhong, shouting, "All of you here are heads of various departments within the Special Affairs Bureau, and you were personally recommended by several cabinet ministers and the military!"
"You are now imprisoning everyone here so arbitrarily and unreasonably based solely on a so-called cabinet order that may or may not be true. You are simply disregarding the law and wantonly trampling on the rule of law!"
"If you release your colleagues now, you might be able to lessen your punishment. Otherwise... the consequences will be something you can't afford!" The man glared angrily at the person in front of him, his voice booming throughout the conference room.
Upon hearing the man's righteous and righteous denunciation, the previously quiet meeting room erupted in chaos.
People started whispering among themselves, and a cacophony of voices rose and fell.
Immediately afterwards, voices of agreement began to emanate from the conference room, with someone shouting, "That's right! You have no evidence, so you have to let us go!"
"This stalemate is not good for anyone!" For a moment, the situation became somewhat out of control.
Just then, several department heads, who were particularly agitated, could no longer contain their anxiety. They stood up, turned around, and strode towards the conference room door.
However, the Leo cavalrymen waiting at the door reacted quickly, reaching out to stop those trying to leave.
Despite the Leo cavalry's agility, they knew in their hearts that they absolutely could not easily harm these department heads.
After all, these people are key figures in their respective important departments, and if not handled properly, they could trigger a series of serious problems.
Thus, the two sides entered a brief stalemate.
At this moment, everyone's eyes were once again focused on Director Zhong.
The bureau chief, who had remained silent until now, became the focus of everyone's attention, with everyone anxiously awaiting his final statement.
Time seemed to stand still. The conference room was filled with a tense atmosphere, so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
