Chapter 408 - An extremely packed police station! (1/2)
It was the first day of the new year.
The sound of firecrackers had awoken quite a lot of people this morning.
With his head moving, Zhang Ye got up from the table. While yawning and rubbing his stiff face, he looked outside, but could not see anything. The tiny window revealed a little of the morning sun, and the sound of firecrackers could be heard through it. He could hear the sounds of festivity outside, but he could not embrace the new year mood inside the detainment cell. The room was too silent. He got up and stretched his limbs. He was thirsty and also hungry.
”Where is everyone?”
”Anyone there?”
”Hey bros, give me something to eat?”
”If there's no breakfast, at least give me some warm water?”
Zhang Ye shouted outside, but no one bothered with him. He felt helpless, but did not complain. He sat down once again. Since he was under the roof of others, he had to make do.
It was a bit noisy outside.
It wasn't the sound of firecrackers, but voices. He did not know what was going on.
Police station.
On the first floor of a large lobby.
The policeman on duty looked at the large crowds squeezing in from outside the door and were quite stunned. They even felt a s.h.i.+ver for they had really been frightened out of their wits. Holy sh*t, why were so many people here? What are they all here for? There were times of trouble recently, don't tell me they were here to chop people to death? No, that's not right. This was Beijing. It was one of the most lawful and orderly places in the country. How could these people be so bold?
Eh?
There are even children?
Wait a moment, why are there old grannies and grandpas?
An old policeman from the side also turned frightened. He got a policeman to watch over the situation as he rushed back to make a phone call. ”h.e.l.lo, Superintendent Yang, hurry over quickly!”
Yang Jie was still sleeping in the dormitories of the police station. ”What's wrong? Isn't it early!? I was busy late into the night last night. I'll be going in later in the day.”
The old policeman hurriedly said, ”Many people are here at the station. The entrance is completely blocked. Little w.a.n.g and I can't handle it at all! I think it's best you come over quickly. If not, get Old Wu and Old Zhao too?” Under normal circ.u.mstances, the police station enjoyed peace and quiet during the new year. There were not many matters or cases, so only two or three people were left manning the station. The rest would be on break as they took s.h.i.+fts.
However, today's situation was a bit different!
Yang Jie was stunned, How many people came?”
The old policeman said, ”There's about three hundred. And that's the number that squeezed in. It seems like there's more outside. As for how many in total, I can't even count, there's too many!”
Yang Jie turned nervous. ”What's going on?”
”I don't know. I got Little w.a.n.g to watch the place outside!” The old policeman said.
Yang Jie hurriedly said, ”I'll be there in three minutes! The both of you must hold on until then!”
”Alright, alright, alright.” After hanging up the phone, the old policeman bolstered up his courage to walk back out.
The dormitory was probably quite close to the police station, so in about three minutes, Yang Jie had grabbed a few policemen and rushed to the police station. These people were on break, but due to extenuating circ.u.mstances, Yang Jie got all of them activated. A few Deputy Superintendents were also informed, so they would be here soon.
”What's the matter?” Yang Jie wanted to be fierce, so as to control the crowd that were here to cause a mess. However, when he saw about 500-600 people packed around the police station, he lacked the confidence. Holy sh*t, what were they here for!? Yang Jie subconsciously placed his hand behind him and touched the gun by his waist and felt a bit more rea.s.sured. However, he and the other policemen also knew that if these people wanted to do something, then just their few guns would be meaningless. Hence, someone had already informed other branches and the special forces for backup support.
The police station was facing a monstrosity, so they had to be on full alert!
Yang Jie bit the bullet before walking forward and said, ”I'm this police station's Superintendent Yang Jie. If you have anything, you can tell me? It's the new year, so everyone, please don't be rash. If there's anything, we will try to solve it. You must trust your government, the police, and the law!” He said in an earnest manner.
No one spoke.
The old policeman said with a trembling voice, ”All...All of you, is there something?”
A youth stepped forward, ”I'm here to surrender!”
The policemen that numbered about eight were stunned, ”Surrender? Surrender for what?”
The youth stretched his hands out in front of him, ”Hurry up and cuff me! The matter with Lee Anson being beaten at midnight, it wasn't done by Teacher Zhang Ye, it was done by me!”
”And me too!”
”Me too!”
”I was involved!”
”I was also involved!”
”Cuff me!”
Immediately, more than a hundred voices cried out. It was tumultuous and thundering. Their voices echoed throughout the entire police station, even drowning out the sounds of the firecrackers outside!
Yang Jie was dumbfounded!
The policemen were also stunned with widened eyes!
”All...All of you are here to surrender?” Yang Jie felt faint. The thing that happened at night only involved about a dozen or two people in the brawl. How could there be so many people? Impossible! If there were really hundreds of people beating Lee Anson, would Lee Anson be slightly injured? He would have been beaten to a f**king pulp!
A man fiercely slammed the police station's reception counter. ”Hurry and take my statement! Lee Anson was beaten by me! Let Teacher Zhang out!”
”I'm here to surrender too. He was beaten by me!” A woman also stepped forward!
A young policeman wiped the sweat from his forehead, ”Superintendent Yang! What should we do about this!”
Yang Jie also did not expect this to happen. Anyone with a clear mind knew it was impossible so many people were involved in the brawl. However, with so many of them surrendering themselves, they could not do anything about it. They had to go in accordance with procedure and take statements. They had to do them one at a time!
The police station's policemen was immediately thrown into chaos. They were here to surrender, and the policemen could not chase them out. They could only get them to line up. It turned out that these people were very well-mannered and did not cause much trouble. They lined up to have their statements taken. It was rather orderly, causing the policemen to freeze!?
What should they do?
