"Duan Zhang's older brother is called Coconut Meat; he dealt in heroin and was quite a notorious wrecker. We had our eyes on him since a year ago and about six months back, we pooled together various forces to wipe out Coconut Meat and several other wreckers, including their associated members, in one fell swoop. Coconut Meat took hostages and was killed on the spot."
Shi Zhonglong from the Narcotics Brigade gave a rough overview, leaving Jiang Yuan and the others looking at each other in bewilderment.
"Coconut Meat is dead, Duan Zhang's life or death is uncertain, and several of his minions have fled…" Cui Qishan summed up the situation and couldn't help asking, "So, does this mean our case is closed?"
"Pretty much. The line with Coconut Meat is essentially dead," Shi Zhonglong said.
"What about the level above? What about Coconut Meat's boss?" Jiang Yuan pressed.
"He doesn't have a boss anymore."
