Binjiang Police Affairs-Chapter 384 - 271: All Captured
Chapter 384: Chapter 271: All Captured
Just past five o’clock, most enterprises and institutions had not yet finished work, and outside it was already pitch black.
The snow kept falling heavier, twirling in the icy wind, and every now and then cars passed by on the road, flattening the snow, leaving the surface full of ruts and extremely muddy. The riverbank on the west side of the road and the farmland on the east were both a vast expanse of white.
Half an hour ago, Han Yu and Wang Xiaoshan quietly slipped into the ditch behind the drainage station, tasked with cutting off the retreat of four targets.
They were too close, initially worried they would be exposed.
After over half an hour of stakeout, they realized that their previous worries were unnecessary.
Their heads and bodies were covered in snow; even their eyelashes had snow on them. There was no way to notice there were people in the ditch unless one walked right up to it.
Wearing gloves and canvas cotton shoes, their hands and feet weren’t very cold.
However, the snowflakes that drifted into their necks melted into water due to body temperature, slowly seeping into their sweaters.
At first, it felt negligible, rather like sweating, just stickily uncomfortable.
As more and more melted snow seeped in, coupled with the bursts of icy winds swooping in, it became extremely cold, and it was a cold that seeped from the inside out.
The baton could not be effectively used, and guns could not be used unless absolutely necessary—the weapons used today were the most ancient of cold weapons—wooden sticks! freёnovelkiss.com
Han Yu was about to look back at the weapons now buried under the snow, when suddenly, car lights appeared to the south.
Following that, a car honked as it drove past.
"Captain Yu..."
"Keep quiet."
Han Yu took several deep breaths, quietly clutching the wooden stick, slowly straightened up, and peered towards the bridge and the drainage station beneath it.
It was too dark to see clearly.
You could only see a car stopped at the head of the bridge, unable to discern the make and model.
The two were contemplating whether it was Gu Datou arriving when the car honked four times. Then, several figures emerged from the drainage station, stumbling along the path towards the bridgehead.
They had been watching closely for nearly half a month, waiting for this moment.
Wang Xiaoshan excitedly said, "Two long, two short, it’s Gu Datou!"
"Don’t move, wait a bit longer."
Just as Han Yu finished talking, the car drove onto the bridge, heading straight north.
Simultaneously, the deputy squad leader of the Armed Police Linghai Company, Kang Kui, fully wrapped and wearing a helmet and gloves, drove towards the bridge in a tricycle he had just learned to drive that afternoon.
A pickaxe handle was hidden where his thigh met the basket, ready to be used against enemies at any moment.
The basket had been urgently modified in the afternoon, having a backrest but no seat.
Yu Zhen Tian, the best-handled investigator of the major crime squad, was curled up inside the basket, and to ensure absolute certainty, his body was also pressed by a sack filled with bedding.
The space was too cramped and the tricycle bumpy; Yu Zhen Tian felt even more uncomfortable than those brothers lying in ambush outside, hoping to reach the destination soon, and hoping that the daring security personnel of the Four Factory Public Security Department would appear quickly.
It was his first time on the road, and he had a person with him.
Kang Kui drove very cautiously, skirting a puddle while observing the bridgehead in front of him, nonchalantly reminding, "Xiao Yu, we’re almost there."
Yu Zhen Tian regained his composure, quickly responded, "Received."
Compared to Han Yu and Kang Kui, Xu Mingyuan, Ma Jintao, Luo Wenjiang, and others were even closer to the target!
Paired into groups of two, they divided into three groups.
One group was lying in ambush in the graveyard at bridge north, using the tombstones as cover, ready to rush onto the highway anytime to prevent the target from escaping north should the situation turn south.
One group was lying in ambush in the withered grass at the west side of the bridge head, choosing to be on the west rather than the east side because there was a gentle slope on the west that allowed them to rush up to the bridgehead in one go.
One group was lying in ambush in a ditch on the south-east side of the bridge, which was not an irrigation ditch but a trench left over from when the road was previously widened.
Huang Yueping had hidden inside the drainage station for a day and a night. Although protected from the wind and snow, it was just as cold inside, and he could only think about finishing the task quickly and leaving. He had no idea that a trap had been laid all around.
"Captain Huang, they’re coming!"
"I see it, that should be him."
"He’s driving really slow, Captain Huang, could there be an ambush?"
Huang Yueping looked around, clutching his stick, said, "With such heavy snow, the ground is all white; you could see a rabbit run by, what ambush could there be."
Zhu Liangui peeked out and laughed, "It’s probably because the road is slippery from the snow, so he doesn’t dare to drive too fast."
"Four against one, rush him, hit Shi with a few muffled blows and leave, no one would know, they wouldn’t even know where to start investigating..."
Huang Yueping thought about it more and became excited, but remembering that this was the time to stay calm, he pulled down his mask and turned back to remind, "Pack your bags properly, don’t leave anything behind."
"I know, I’m carrying it."
"Jianmin, did you check inside the drainage station?"
"Cleaned it up at noon, checked it again just now."
"Did you sweep the ground?"
"Swept it, there won’t be any footprints."
They were dealing with Shi Shengyong, no ordinary person.
He came back extremely cautiously, switched vehicles several times on the way, and after entering the drainage station, they all wore gloves, even going to the bathroom in the river to leave no fingerprints or excrements, giving Shi no traces to follow.
Huang Yueping checked his brothers’ luggage again, confirmed they were all shouldering their bags, turned and looked towards the approaching tricycle, and smiled, "Was worried about leaving footprints before, but this snow is good, covering everything, nothing can be seen."
"Now all that’s left are Gu Datou and those few cowardly bastards."
"Gu Datou has nothing to worry about; he’s now in the same boat as us. Those braggart thugs are also not a concern; their asses aren’t clean anyway. Even if they dare to blab and even if it reaches Shi’s ears, Shi still needs to produce evidence."
"Captain Huang, they’re coming."
"The road is slippery, watch your step."
"Got it."
"Only hit their arms and legs, don’t cause any fatalities."
"Understood."
"Don’t rush, let him get closer."
Huang Yueping stared intently at the approaching tricycle, recalling how Shi Shengyong had publicly slapped him in front of so many people, his eyes full of rage.
In the blink of an eye, the tricycle reached the bridgehead.
"Go!"
Huang Yueping couldn’t and didn’t want to wait any longer, he rushed onto the road with a wooden stick in hand.
Just as he was about to give Shi Shengyong "a taste of his own medicine", "Shi Shengyong" suddenly pressed down on the steering handle and leapt off the vehicle.
He flew backwards!
Huang Yueping was stunned, unable to believe that this old rascal "Shi Shengyong" could perform "Qinggong".
At the moment Kang Kui leapt off the vehicle using momentum, the tricycle lost control, charging straight towards Zhu Liangui who followed Huang Yueping’s rush.
"Ouch..."
Caught off guard, Zhu Liangui screamed as he was knocked to the ground.
With no one accelerating, and having collided with a person, the tricycle stalled.
A sack dropped from the bucket onto the muddy road, and a figure followed, crawling out of the bucket. "Shi Shengyong" then charged forward, pulling a hoe handle from the tricycle and struck Zhou Jianmin violently!
Zhou Jianmin’s hand went numb, and the stick he was holding was knocked away.
"Drop your weapons, don’t move!"
Yu Zhen Tian managed to stand up and stabilize himself, not bothering to fetch the stun gun hidden in the bucket, he directly drew his gun and aimed it as a warning.
Huang Yueping snapped back to reality, realizing there was an ambush, he was about to tell his men to run when "Shi Shengyong" already reached him, swinging the hoe handle, shouting, "Did you hear that, drop your weapons!"
At that moment, seven to eight figures rushed over from all directions.
"Huang Yueping, get down!"
"Zhou Jianmin, you can’t escape!"
"Get down immediately, hands on your head, did you hear!"
...
Time ticked by, and the atmosphere in the meeting room on the second floor of the Dunship grew tenser.
Shi Shengyong couldn’t figure out how the Four Factory Public Security Department, already disbanded, could fight back, nor could he understand what connection Li Shichang had with the Four Factory Public Security Department.
He was both nervous and anxious, not knowing what to say, when the Director’s "brick phone" rang.
Director Yang saw Sun Jiawen looking towards him reflexively and simply picked up the "brick phone" pressing the speaker button.
"Report to Director Yang, four bastards acted according to the plan, caught red-handed by us, all netted, no one injured."
"They really dared to make a move?"
"They not only did make a move, but were also very prepared, each with an iron shovel handle, ready to ambush Director Shi with a surprise attack and then flee. Luckily, we were prepared, otherwise, the consequences would be unthinkable."
Han Yu glanced back at the former combat champion escorting Huang Yueping to the road maintenance office, adding, "Also lucky that Captain Kang from the Armed Police Company reacted quickly and deftly, otherwise capturing them red-handed wouldn’t have been so easy."
Director Yang finally relaxed and said, "Well done, begin the interrogation quickly, we must ascertain if there are any other accomplices or someone behind the scenes."
"Yes!"
"Keep us updated on the situation. If funds are lacking, you advance them. No matter the cost, reimbursement will be based on actual expenses."
"Understood."
It was Salted Fish’s voice, Salted Fish had gone to catch them in the act!
Shi Shengyong realized someone wanted revenge on him, not only had the department sent Salted Fish to secretly protect him, but even requested the most capable fighter from the Armed Police Company, Kang Kui, to help...
"Director Yang, Political Commissioner, what exactly is going on?"
"If it weren’t for Salted Fish and Xu Mingyuan, you’d be in the hospital now."
Director Yang snorted coldly, put down the "brick phone," and picked up a cigarette.
Political Commissioner Sun sighed lightly and said coldly, "Uprooting the Four Factory Public Security Department not only solved the funding issue for the station but also helped the bureau regain control over security jurisdiction for the Four Factory, and even secured a contract for the security company. Plus, we got a Santana vehicle for the bureau, no need to change its license plate, what a great achievement, yet you let it get to your head!"
"Political Commissioner, I haven’t let it get to my head."
"Not?"
"Really not?"
"At a time like this, you still haven’t realized where you went wrong! When working, you must be mindful of methods. Don’t say that you, Shi Shengyong, are just a police station chief, even if you were a city leader, you couldn’t do things this way."
"What did I do..."
"Don’t know what you did? Think hard about how you investigated the bullet incident and how you treated the officers and Economic Police from the Four Factory Public Security Department."
Sun Jiawen knocked on the table, speaking harshly yet regretfully, "To put it nicely, you brought personal emotions into your work; put harshly, you got arrogant! You think everyone’s ass is dirty, suspecting everyone has issues, not treating them like people.
But have you thought, just the day before you started investigating the bullet incident, the Four Factory Public Security Department was on the same level as our Linghai Police Bureau, they too wore uniforms, drove police cars to inspect others, they’re all people who have their pride. There’s a saying, ’Don’t hit the face when beating someone,’ but you, you exactly slapped their face, and did it in front of so many people!"
