The Armed Police Department took this matter very seriously.
At first, only Yuan Tianqing came, but by the time Ming Step was being escorted to the car, a dozen or so Secret Guards in black uniforms had appeared around, each with a composed demeanor and sharp eyes like those of an eagle, clearly of extraordinary strength.
They seemed to be from the City Lord's Mansion.
Soon after, the Criminal Investigation Department also dispatched experts for protection.
Although it was just a single assassin, he was being guarded more tightly than the victim, Xu Lingjun.
And it was evident that not just the mere city lord was disturbed by this; unbeknownst to Xu Lingjun, the Administrative Department had swiftly reported the matter to the Imperial Capital.
