A little over ten minutes later, a convoy of armored patrol cars rolled into Lakefront Park. After a thorough inspection, they confiscated all the firearms and equipment left at the scene and loaded the bodies onto a hauler.
A Patrol Officer approached the lead captain, saluted, and said, "Captain Qian, we've confirmed that all the deceased individuals at the scene were armed assailants."
Captain Qian grunted in acknowledgment and asked impassively, "Have their identities been confirmed?"
"Preliminary identification indicates they were a mercenary group from out of town. The leader is a man named Suo Pingtou, who has a prior criminal record. I've cross-referenced the records, sir. The entire crew is here, not a single one missing."
Captain Qian sighed. "The younger generation is truly formidable. Captain Nian... Captain Nian is a lucky man." He then added, "Remember to set aside a copy of the report for Captain Nian after you've processed everything."
