Chapter 188 What Identity? (1/2)
Nobody could have imagined that things would end up like this. Qin Sheng had wanted to stall time. He thought that by the time the police arrived, Du Jiang's motley crowd would definitely split up immediately. He also thought that this thing would be settled completely when Uncle Zhuang arrives the next day. However, he did not expect Du Jiang to trample on his bottom line even more recklessly. Others may be able to tolerate this, but Qin Sheng could not. Hence, he started to fight back, risking the possibility of being hospitalized for another few months. Yet all of a sudden, two men came in and turned the game around. In just a few minutes, they gained control over Du Jiang and his group of men.
Qin Sheng and Lin Su naturally did not know Gongsun and Ma Fei. They thought that they were most probably sent by Uncle Zhuang to Xiamen to protect them. However, they did not expect the answer to be different. The crowd only understood what was going on when they heard what Qin Changan said.
The staff at Spring Breeze all felt that this uncle who had been coming to them the past two days was not someone ordinary. Judging by his attire and aura, he was obviously a rich man or was once a leader. Their words were now verified when Qin Changan took action.
Qin Changan walked up to Qin Sheng's side and facing Du Jiang and the rest who were lying on the ground, he snorted, ”You guys are so reckless and fearless to cause a nuisance in public space! Xiamen's security standard is no longer like before! I called the police ages ago and they've yet to arrive! This speed that they're dispatching men is not ordinarily slow.”
Gongsun and Ma Fei retreated to Qin Changan's both sides, as if nothing happened. This was too easy a task for them; it was just like eating and shitting.
As soon as he finished talking, police siren could be heard and two police cars stopped by the roadside. Four to five policemen came out of the cars and walked slowly towards the center of the crowd. They shouted, ”What are you guys doing? What's going on?”
”What a coincidental timing to arrive,” Qin Changan joked.
Du Jiang heard the voice of the police and quickly got up on his feet. He cried out, ”Chief Chen, you have to help us! This bunch of people is very suspicious. They've already beaten us until we become like this. You must help us!”
”So you know each other. No wonder,” Gongsun said with a black face. He hated this kind of acting in cahoots the most. If they dared to cause trouble in broad daylight, they probably must have informed the authorities beforehand.
In such a situation, as the leader, Chief Chen had to pretend like he did not know them, even if he did. And as for how he was going to settle it when he returns, he had no idea. Hence, pointing towards Qin Changan and the rest, he ordered the subordinates behind him, ”Bring all of them back!”
Facing such a situation, Qin Changan would definitely not speak up. Gongsun questioned, ”Then what about them?”
”This is not something you should be worried about. You guys beat someone up, of course you're going to come back with us to the station. They will be sent to the hospital for wound inspection first,” Chief Chen said with much conviction.
”You didn't even ask for the full story and just directly make such an objective decision. How did you even become a policeman? You didn't even turn on your body camera. You're so powerful.” Gongsun saw through the whole act. He was obviously one with the team, just like he guessed.
Hearing this, Chief Chen said angrily, ”I dare you to say one more.”
”What? Do you want to fight? There are so many pairs of eyes here. Do you dare?” Gongsun asked disdainfully.
Qin Changan truly did not want to waste time over such a trivial thing. He ordered Gongsun, ”Call their Mayor Huang, let him handle this.”
Qin Changan did business in Xiamen and was friends with a bunch of leaders in the Xiamen Municipal Party Committee, let alone those big shots in the provinces. For this kind of trivial issue, a phone call would suffice.
Chief Chen had thought that the middle-aged man in front of him was not easy. No matter what, he was a Chief, he would have seen a few leaders by now. But this man's temperament made him fear a little. Now that he heard what Qin Changan said, he immediately became alert. What the heck? They barely started and he already mentioned calling Mayor Huang? He was the second most important person in the municipal government. How massive could this middle-aged man's background be? If Mayor Huang were to find out about this, he could only go home and wait for the letter of discharge. Hence, he quickly sucked it up to him and asked, ”You are?”
Gongsun stopped him and snorted, ”You are not qualified to know. Since you don't know how to deal with this, then I'll find someone to teach you how to do it.”
”Don't get anxious! Just now I didn't know clearly what's going on, but now I have a rough idea. I'll take care of it right away, I'll definitely not let you down,” Chief Chen said with a face full of smiles. He was not dumb, his brain switched quicker than anyone else and his attitude changed immediately. Besides, he already knew what was going on right from the start, since Du Jiang had told him beforehand.
Turning back, like a chameleon, Chief Chen became strict again and shouted, ”Bring that bunch of trouble-causing gangsters back to the station! They're getting out of hand!”
The few policemen looked at each other and did not know what just happened. Du Jiang and the rest were even more shocked. He quickly shouted, ”Chief Chen, what's going on? We're the victims!”
”Do you think I don't know what kind of people you are? If you say one more word, I'll punish all of you when we're back at the station! Bring all of them back!” Chief Chen glared at Du Jiang with fiery eyes. His message could not come across any clearer. ”Don't stir up trouble for me, otherwise, you won't have it easy.”
After Du Jiang and the rest were taken away by the police, the chaos came to an end. However, the onlookers were very surprised by how climatic the whole process was.
The main leads, Qin Sheng and Lin Su, became supporting cast at the end. However, Lin Su only cared about Qin Sheng. Everything was good as long as nothing happens to him. Qin Sheng looked towards Qin Changan and said thoughtfully, ”Uncle, thanks a lot.”
