Yang Yan chuckled and explained:

"Sorry, sorry! The reason I didn't tell you all in advance is actually because I know those things aren't harmful without someone controlling them."

"They would instinctively move towards their bodies. If it weren't for the fear of frightening others outside, we wouldn't even need to bother."

At this moment, Wei Kingdom also walked over, frowning and asked:

"What are those things exactly? Did the higher-ups know what was happening here all along?"

Yang Yan thought for a moment and said somewhat helplessly:

"How should I explain it to you all? These things are classified, top-tier secrets. If you want to know, you can ask your superior directly."

"Of course, whether he knows or whether he will tell you, I don't know."

Wei Kingdom clearly frowned; such an answer was obviously not satisfying to him.

Unfortunately, Yang Yan had no intention of explaining further. He clapped his hands and instructed:

"Alright, you've worked hard. Let's consider this matter concluded. Clean up here and then go take a rest!"

"Is it really over?"

Liu Jun asked in disbelief.

"That's right, this time it truly is over. This kind of thing won't happen again. You should all go back and rest; it's been a long night."

After saying this, Yang Yan was the first to sit in the police car and then closed his eyes to relax.

"Everyone, clean up the battlefield."

Although Wei Kingdom still had many questions, seeing Yang Yan unwilling to elaborate, he quickly gave orders to his troops.

Though many had been sitting on the ground just now, this unit was well-trained and disciplined; they immediately started to get busy.

By this time, Xia Bing also got into the car.

She didn't know what Yang Yan had experienced up there, but he seemed to be in good spirits and uninjured.

The only thing she couldn't quite grasp was that he seemed to have something on his mind.

"What's wrong? Encountered something tricky?"

Xia Bing asked cautiously.

"I didn't expect Captain Xia to be quite attentive."

Yang Yan said with a bitter smile.

"Can you tell me what it is? Maybe I can help."

Xia Bing said with a smile.

Yang Yan lightly shook his head:

"I've figured out some things, but new problems have arisen, which makes me a bit vexed."

"It seems you're not planning to tell me. However, since you can't figure it out, just don't think about it for now. You've worked hard all night, let me take you home to rest early!"

Xia Bing showed her considerate side.

"Let's wait a bit! I'll go back when they're done cleaning. After all, this matter can't be spread carelessly. Also, there are some things I need to explain to you all specifically."

Yang Yan waved his hand and said.

The troops cleaned up the battlefield quickly, and soon this place was almost tidied up.

Ordinary people would, of course, never know that there had been a fierce battle here.

Wei Kingdom, who had been cleaning up the battlefield with the soldiers, also came to Yang Yan's side, and asked with a troubled expression:

"Mr. Yang, how am I supposed to report this to the higher-ups? I can't draft this report!"

"Don't worry, your superiors won't require you to write a report. For this matter, you just need to impose a gag order on the soldiers involved today."

Yang Yan said with a grin.

"Using so many bullets, how can the higher-ups not investigate?"

Wei Kingdom asked in confusion.

Although they were on a mission and had received the highest command, after all, they weren't out here for war.

Using this many bullets at once, according to usual practice, would require a report.

Wei Kingdom truly didn't know how to write this report.

If he told the truth, those above who didn't know the inside details would certainly think he was an idiot.

"Just put your mind at ease! I guarantee that your superiors won't inquire, and no colleagues will question you. You just take your men back and remember to impose a gag order—nothing more to worry about."

Yang Yan patted his shoulder, reassuringly.

After hearing Yang Yan's assurance, Wei Kingdom didn't question further.

That seemed to make sense.

He had orders from above to fully obey Yang Yan's commands, and since the main person involved was sending him back, it was likely that those above would come to communicate with Yang Yan.

He was just an executor, and the higher-ups wouldn't be bothered with such a minor character.

As Wei Kingdom led his soldiers away from the scene, the officers who had started investigating this with Yang Yan also gathered.

Yang Yan glanced at them and said in a deep voice:

"I know the events of these past two days have been hard to accept, and you've been quite frightened, but it's not that you've gained nothing."

"In the upcoming period, you'll gain a windfall that might exceed your expectations. But no matter the money, it's best to use more than two-thirds for charity."

"As for the remainder, spend it however you want. And it's best to distribute it quickly since windfall and unexpected wealth are hard to retain; be careful of disaster following joy."

Originally, they thought Yang Yan had something serious to discuss, but didn't expect him to remind them of this instead.

Though they had heard that after seeing Black and White Impermanence, one might encounter unexpected financial gains, the way Yang Yan talked, the amount wouldn't be small.

"Alright, as the saying goes, fortune and disaster are intertwined. After all the fright you've been through, consider the money as a consolation. Remember, money not earned through work—it's best to donate two-thirds for good causes! Don't be greedy; excess leads to misfortune!"

Yang Yan emphasized earnestly once more.

Although Liu Jun and the others had only known Yang Yan for a short time, they had endless trust in this mysterious young man.

Everyone felt that listening to him wouldn't lead them astray, so they all nodded sincerely, promising to do what Yang Yan advised.

"Alright, remember to keep these past few days a secret, and go back to rest."

After saying that, Yang Yan closed his eyes again and stopped talking.

Seeing this, Xia Bing suddenly announced:

"Go rest, everyone! Remember Yang Yan's words and it's best to follow his advice. Also, you don't need to come to work for the next few days. I'm giving you a break, so go home!"

Upon hearing Xia Bing say this, everyone cheered and headed off in different directions in their vehicles.

"I'll give you a ride home. Is it Prosperous Court or the apartment?"

Xia Bing asked with a smile.

"To Prosperous Court! At this hour, going back to the apartment might disturb them. They'll ask a lot of questions, and it'll be quite a hassle!"

Yang Yan said with a wry smile.

Though there weren't many cars on the road, Xia Bing drove very slowly.

This was not like her usual self.

Yang Yan glanced at Xia Bing and said with a smile:

"If you have questions, just ask! Drive a bit faster, please. It's been a long day, and I want to get back soon."

Xia Bing bit her lip lightly and cautiously asked:

"What exactly is that shadow? I'm really curious! You actually referred to it as 'Your Majesty'."
