Superintendent Xiang of Wong Tai Sin Police Station is a bit busy tonight...
Lao Xiang never worked overtime, but today when he was about to get off work in the afternoon, he suddenly called his subordinates to his office and asked them to work overtime together in the evening.
Lao Xiang didn't tell them what happened specifically. He just asked them to wait outside with others, and he would notify them when the time comes.
This shocked the few elite men under my command, but they were very obedient and not unhappy at all.
"Let's eat first."
Lao Xiang raised his hand to look at his watch, glanced at the time and signaled them to wait outside: "I've already asked someone to bring dinner over. Let's eat first. When you're full and drunk, smoke a cigarette to get some fresh air. Just wait for me.
.”
"Don't be nervous, just take a little action, okay?"
"YES Sir!"
The two senior inspectors looked at each other, nodded and went out: "Thank you Sir!"
Superintendent Xiang must be forty-five years old this year. He climbed to the position of superintendent when he was forty years old, but basically did not do much after that. It is a bit like retiring in this position, and he has no motivation at work.
I don’t want to climb up any more and just do my job honestly.
But he handles personnel relations very well, and basically all the people under him are brought up by himself. Over the years, he has admired Lao Xiang very much and supports him in everything he does.
I heard that there was something going on tonight at short notice, but no one under his command had any complaints. Plus, he had already ordered dinner for them in advance, so everyone was naturally happier.
After eating, Lao Xiang remained silent for a long time and kept sitting in the office smoking a cigarette, as if waiting for some news.
It wasn't until nine o'clock in the evening that the mobile phone in front of Lao Xiang finally rang. He picked up the phone and answered it. Listening to Cai Yuanqi's voice, he nodded a few times and hung up the phone before coming out with his coat:
"Let's go to the gun room to get the equipment and let's go!"
"YES Sir!"
Everyone responded energetically and followed Superintendent Xiang out. After receiving their equipment, the police car convoy drove out of the police station in a mighty manner.
They walked all the way, and it only took them more than forty minutes to reach their destination, but still no action was taken.
"Sir, what are we going to do?!"
The senior inspector carefully checked the .38 in his hand and looked up at Lao Xiang sitting in the passenger seat: "Everyone is ready."
"smoke!"
Lao Xiang smiled faintly, took out a pack of cigarettes, took one in his mouth, threw it to them sitting behind, lit it, and started puffing away.
"Okay."
Seeing how calm Lao Xiang was, the senior inspector naturally didn't want to talk nonsense. He shrugged and started smoking a cigarette.
"Don't worry."
Lao Xiang lightly sipped the cigarette in his hand, lightly scratched his forehead with his thumb holding the cigarette, and puffed out the smoke and said:
"Don't be anxious about anything, be patient and wait. Put out the fire and let's wait slowly."
Finished.
He squinted at the industrial park in front of him that was silhouetted against the night. Under the bright street lights, the rows of lights in the park were extremely transparent.
Time passed little by little.
Their convoy of five cars parked on the roadside and waited for more than an hour, having smoked most of the pack of cigarettes.
The senior inspector lost his temper and was about to ask another question when suddenly, a gunshot was heard in the industrial park, followed by three more gunshots in succession.
"Depend on!"
The senior inspector suddenly raised his head and looked at the location where the gunfire came from, and then looked at Superintendent Xiang sitting in the passenger seat:
"Sir, it's 1:38. Are there still our people in the park?! Have they started taking action?"
"oh?!"
Lao Xiang raised his eyebrows when he heard this and smiled faintly: "It's not the sound of 38, it's the sound of a pistol? Our people haven't started to take action yet."
"Isn't it?!"
After hearing Lao Xiang's answer, the senior inspector became a little less confident.
"That doesn't sound like it."
Lao Xiang shook his head and pointed to the mobile phone on his waist: "I haven't received the letter yet. Senior Inspector Chen Guozhong is inside. If he wants to take action, he will notify me in advance."
"Okay."
The senior inspector could only shrug.
"It seems like the sound is really 1:38."
After Lao Xiang paused for a few seconds, he couldn't help frowning and looking at the mobile phone on his waist:
"Chen Guozhong and the others have started taking action? Why didn't they notify me in advance?"
"Then let's rush!"
When the senior inspector heard Lao Xiang's affirmation, he took it for granted: "Let me just say, the gunshots I heard just now seemed to be the .38 gunshots."
"Just wait a little longer."
Lao Xiang raised the corners of his mouth slightly and looked at himself in the rearview mirror: "This person must be transparent enough in his conduct and work, especially those like us who work at the grassroots level. We must be more alert when handling cases."
He turned to look at the senior inspector sitting in the back seat: "Use your brain and think about it. Senior Inspector Chen Guozhong called me tonight and asked me to work on this case with him."
"But, he has started to take action now, the gun has been fired, but he hasn't called me yet, what does this mean?!"
The senior inspector subconsciously replied: "Something happened to him?!"
"Go to the street!"
Lao Xiang immediately laughed and shook his head: "You can't let Senior Inspector Chen Guozhong hear what you said for a while. If he heard it, he would have to scold you a few words. They are acting inside. If you curse them, they will beat you.
ah."
"Ahem."
After listening to Lao Xiang's words, the senior inspector hurriedly coughed twice and cleared his throat to cover up his embarrassment, and nodded in agreement:
"Yes to Sir, yes to Sir."
"Chen Guozhong and Chen Sir have already started taking action, but he didn't call me to inform me. That shows one thing."
The expression on Lao Xiang's face was relaxed, and he continued to talk and preach: "That means that the situation inside is all under his control. He is very confident that he can close this case. He wants to
I kept the case in my hands and digested it myself, so he hasn’t notified me yet.”
"Tell me, what are we going to do when we rush in at this time? Are we going to compete with Sir Chen for credit?"
"Forehead"
The senior inspector couldn't help but be speechless after hearing this. After thinking about it, it seemed that this was indeed the case. Chen Guozhong didn't even notify them, which meant that the matter was controllable. If they rushed in on their own initiative, Chen Guozhong would definitely have to think more.
"Have a cigarette."
Lao Xiang bared his teeth and smiled, shook the cigarette case in his hand, lit a cigarette again, and blew out a long puff of smoke:
"Let me ask you another question. You said that since Chen Guozhong asked me to help him with his actions tonight, wouldn't it offend me if he didn't ask me to act? Why would he do this?"
"Forehead"
The senior inspector took a puff of cigarette and still didn't answer the question for a while, not knowing how to reply.
"It's a favor."
Lao Xiang took a puff of smoke, chewed the cigarette and clapped his hands together: "What these bad guys want in society is not just about fighting and killing, but also about human relations."
"Those of us in the police force, although we no longer have to fight and kill, we still pay more attention to human relations and sophistication, do you understand?"
"Chen Guozhong called me here today. Since the scene was under control, he didn't ask us to take action. If we didn't take action in the end, he owed us a favor."
"Come out with me today. Next time I go out to drink tea with them, if I tell them about this, they will be familiar with you. If anything happens, they will definitely support you."
Lao Xiang stretched out his finger out the window and shook the cigarette he held, leisurely and somewhat preaching.
"This is the truth, it's just..."
The senior inspector smoked a cigarette with twinkling eyes, glanced at Lao Xiang and said, "Chen Guozhong is going to retire soon, right? If we help him today, even if he owes us any favors, he won't be able to help us in the future?"
Lao Xiang was an easy-going person and never had any quarrels with his confidants, so the senior inspector said whatever came to his mind.
"Look."
Lao Xiang chuckled again, shook his head disapprovingly, and nodded his head gently with his fingers:
"Look, you are still not experienced enough, right?"
"Let me ask you again, am I familiar with Chan Kwok-chung? He is a senior inspector at the same level as you. I am the superintendent, the biggest figure in Wong Tai Sin Police Station."
"Not familiar."
"Then why did I bring you here tonight? To help Chen Guozhong, a man who will retire in just two months?"
Lao Xiang turned to look at the senior inspector and began to lecture: "I'm not familiar with Chen Guozhong, but Chen Guozhong has a younger brother, Chen Guorong. What rank is Chen Guorong now? Superintendent."
"What we want to arrest tonight is Wang Bao, the leader of the society. Chen Guozhong has been following Wang Bao for a long time but nothing happened. There were many difficulties in the process. Chen Guozhong has a strong personality and is unwilling to seek help from his younger brother Chen Guorong.
"
"So, Superintendent Chen Guorong found me and asked me to help his brother, so I'm here today."
Lao Xiang clapped his hands: "Now, do you understand? It seems that so many of us are helping one Chen Guozhong, but the relationship behind it is Superintendent Chen Guorong."
"You don't have to directly see immediate benefits before doing something. When the time is right, we need to invest in advance, right?"
"Even if we don't take action at the end of tonight, our favor will be reflected when we come. Later, when I mention you in front of Chen Guorong, will you also register with him?"
"Yes yes yes!"
When the senior inspector heard this, he looked like he had been taught something and gave a thumbs up: "It would be better to see Sir more clearly."
This time, he was not anxious at all and waited patiently.
A few minutes later.
The phone on Lao Xiang's waist suddenly rang. Lao Xiang picked up the phone and answered it. After listening to a few words, he hung up.
"Ready for action!"
Lao Xiang stretched out his hand to tighten the bulletproof vest hanging on his body, threw the phone on the seat, and raised his hand to roll down the window.
When the senior inspector heard this, he quickly got out of the car and waved to the guys sitting in the cars behind him.
Suddenly, there was another burst of loud gunfire in the industrial park. The gunfire was loud and dense.
"Shotgun?!"
When the senior inspector heard the gunfire, his hand that was originally resting on the car door suddenly stopped and he looked at Lao Xiang with an uncertain expression: "No way? Such fierce firepower?!"
"A shotgun indeed!"
Lao Xiang nodded, with a thoughtful expression on his face, and his brows wrinkled slightly:
"From the sound, it sounds like it's not weak at all. The firepower configuration is very strong!"
"That"
The senior inspector's eyes flickered and there was a hint of playfulness in his tone: "No wonder he called us at this time to come in. It turns out he has encountered a difficult problem."
He looked at Lao Xiang and asked what he meant.
"action!"
Lao Xiang looked at the senior inspector's expression and very sensibly opened the car door and got out. He waved: "Assemble the team, everyone quickly move towards the park inside!"
It was still some distance away from the location of the gunshot, so driving there was obviously the best option, but Lao Xiang chose to let them run past, which invisibly protected the safety of these guys.
This approach is undoubtedly the most beneficial to them, and many of the clerks will naturally not say anything.
We are here to help, who wants to be on the front line?
"YES Sir!"
Everyone responded and ran forward quickly. The speed of their advance was controlled just right, neither too fast nor too slow.
By the time they arrived, the gunfire had already stopped and the surroundings were silent.
The gate of Yuanhong Precision Park.
Ji Bu came out with Luo Tianhong, Aji, and a ten-person security team who had joined together.
"Da da da"
The footsteps stopped, and the running team stopped with their hands raised.
The two groups met on the street at the entrance of the park, some distance apart.
Lao Xiang saw Ji Bu and the others, and Ji Bu had naturally seen them too. The two groups looked at each other from a distance.
middle.
A car was parked on the side of the road, with a police officer covered in blood lying on the side of the half-open door.
On the hood of the car, Chen Guozhong, covered in blood, looked at the front of the car sitting on the ground, blood staining his whole body red.
"Sir Chen!"
Lao Xiang looked at the blood-stained Chen Guozhong and rushed forward quickly.
He raised his head and looked at Ji Bu and his group across from him, and finally his eyes fell on Ji Bu's face.
He knew Ji Bu.
My goal here today is Ji Bu.
"Sir Chen!"
Lao Xiang had a serious expression, looking at Chen Guozhong who didn't know whether to live or die. He pretended to reach out and patted Chen Guozhong's face, but in fact he was testing Chen Guozhong's breath.
Still angry!
"Don't move!"
Lao Xiang frowned, a cold look flashed in his eyes, and immediately raised his gun and pointed it at Ji Bu and his party:
"Hold your head with your hands and squat down."
behind.
A group of guys raised their point 38 points and pointed them at Ji Bu and his party.
During the conversation.
His finger was on the trigger and he was about to pull the trigger.
He wanted to take advantage of the chaos and kill Ji Bu and the others, while also taking care of Chen Guozhong, and then blame Ji Bu and the others for Chen Guozhong's death. Today's goal would be achieved.
"Don't move!"
Ji Bu stared at Lao Xiang who suddenly appeared, looked at this unfamiliar face, and raised his hand:
"Let go of Chen Guozhong!"
As he raised his hand, the ten security teams behind him all moved in unison, pulling out the shotguns hidden inside their large trench coats, cocking the barrels and pointing them at them.
The distance between the two sides at this time was only about two meters. At close range, the black muzzle of the shotgun was full of pressure.
And there are still ten guns.
"!"
Lao Xiang's eyelids twitched violently and his heart stopped for a moment. He was about to shoot but stopped in vain.
