From "Wenji Pawnshop" using iron to press for debts, to monopolizing the building materials and fish and meat markets, he completed primitive accumulation with blood. After a severe crackdown in 1999, he escaped from his shell. Little did he know that the book of blood and tears that the victim Xu Jianguo gave to his young daughter Xu Wei had laid the foundation for revenge thirty years later. With the aura of "Vice President of the Chamber of Commerce", he used "Hengfeng Pawn" as a shell to build a three-level criminal pyramid. Soft violence has become a new art, and 120 million illegal deposits are circulating in the fragrance of Maotai liquor between him and the umbrella. He exploited legal loopholes, and the disguise of "economic disputes" caused the police to repeatedly fail. In the autumn of 2020, an anonymous letter ripped open the mask. The leader of the task force, Xiang Feng, resisted the pressure to trace the source of the crime, pulled out the "white gloves" from 20,000 capital chains, and spelled out the truth from the trembling memories of more than a hundred victims. Xu Wei, who has become an elite accountant, finally handed over the yin and yang contract and account book that his father guarded with his life - on the yellowed pages, blood stains and numbers intertwined to form ironclad evidence. 23 Arrest teams closed the net at the same time, and 17 real estate deeds and address books filled with protective umbrellas were exposed to the sun. From hard violence on the streets to soft violence in underworld enterprises, the "black gold empire" established by Xiao Changwen in thirty years finally collapsed under the rule of law in the new era.

After that, they intentionally directed the police's investigation to Zuo San, the boss of another gang. The police thus began an arduous struggle against gangs and evil, which lasted for five months. Not only did they destroy the Zuo San gang, they also followed the "bloody misguided path" of Yang Zhengxiong, the gang boss who was incompatible with Zuo San, and wiped out the "Eight Drifters in Jiangnan" gang headed by Yang Zhengxiong in one fell swoop, bringing all eight criminals to justice. The work is cut from the perspective of police investigation and details the entire process of the case from clue identification, secret investigation to the joint closing of the network by multiple police types: the investigators overcame difficulties such as the gang's strong anti-investigation capabilities and dispersed members, and gradually figured out the gang's organizational structure and criminal context; in the end, under careful deployment, they successfully destroyed the criminal den and captured the core members. The book not only reveals the arrogant behavior and cunning methods of gangs, but also demonstrates the police's firm responsibility to maintain social stability and protect the safety of the masses.

The stories of these four books are both relatively independent and related to each other. They are thrilling and suspenseful stories, even with a hint of supernatural horror. But they are clearly real, they are life-like suspense and civilian-like thrillers. Stripping away the shell of suspense and horror, what we see is them and their own real, complex, difficult and confusing lives. Yiling's campus suspense works have the charm of advancing with the times. They reflect the living conditions of current college students at a specific age, involving issues such as friendship, love, employment, values, etc., And describe their confusion and struggles in detail. The plots are cleverly conceived, and each story is thought-provoking and instructive. The stories of these fancy girls are also a microcosm of the entire era and society. I believe you will read what you want from them.
