Chapter 208 – Slap to the face! (1/2)

Afternoon.

Neighboring Province, County’s Second People’s Hospital.

Scarface had finished an operation, and the bullethead was removed from his leg. Dong Xuebing stood in his ward, staring at him. “Scarface. To be honest, I respect your courage. Let’s talk. Who is the behind the scenes?” Scarface laid on the hospital bed and said. “What do you think?” Dong Xuebing frowned. “No one else is involved? This is impossible. If no one had given you orders, you dare to abduct someone from public security? Ah?”

Scarface was stunned. “What… what do you mean?”

Dong Xuebing looked at him and said. “The woman you abducted this morning is my helper. She lives in the County’s Public Security Family Quarters!”

Scarface took a deep breath in and finally understood why the Police officers were so aggressive and why there were so many roadblocks in the morning. He had touched someone he is not supposed to. He starts to panic and angrily said. I have nothing to do with this… No… I should say your helper’s incident has nothing to do with me. Last night, I received a call and was told to wait along this street. The caller said to me that there will be a pretty woman passing by there and she will surely fetch high prices. Therefore, I waited there… Damn! Someone tried to frame me!”

Dong Xuebing asked coldly. “Who is this person?”

Scarface quickly said. “I don’t know his real name and only know his nickname. Da Tou! He is someone I know from some time back.”

Dong Xuebing continued asking. “What is Da Tao doing now? Where does he live?”

“I don’t know where he lived. He used to be a loan shark, but I think he is doing something else now.”

“Have you heard of Jin Di Mansion?”

Scarface shook his head. “I am not from your province.”

Dong Xuebing asked a few more questions and left the ward. He lit a cigarette in the hospital front yard. It’s what he had expected. Someone knew Yu Meixia’s usual route to the supermarket and made use of someone else to abduct her. Once Yu Meixia is not around, not one will bring up that murder case and, at the same time, give Dong Xuebing a warning. Dong Xuebing can already confirm Jin Di Mansion is behind all these. These bastards are much! You all want to step all over me? Fine! I will settle the score with you all after I get back! If I don’t wipe out you all, I will change my surname!

Qian Sheng, Qian Fei, Hu Yiguo, Zhao Jingsong… Dong Xuebing recited these names in his heart again!

Ring… ring… ring… it was Liang Chengpeng.

“Chief Dong, how is the case?”

“I am just about to report to you. The case is solved. All 4 suspects are arrested, and we rescued the women and children, who were abducted earlier.”

Liang Chengpeng paused for a while and said. “Good job.”

Dong Xuebing suppressed his anger and said. “I also found out that Yu Meixia’s abduction is not a coincidence. Someone had called Scarface to inform him of Yu Meixia’s whereabouts. Someone is purposely trying to harm me, Sister Yu and stop her from reopening her husband’s death case.”

Liang Chengpeng muttered to himself and said. “I know. Bring those criminals back.”

“During the arrest of the criminals, I fired a few shots, and the few criminals were all injured. They had just undergone to remove the bullet heads. Should we bring them back tomorrow?”

“Today. I had contacted the local police, and they will send the criminals back in their vehicles.”

“Ok.”

After hanging up, Liang Chengpeng smiled to himself. Hu Yiguo had handled this case for more than 2 weeks, and there’s no progress at all. After letting Dong Xuebing take over this case in the morning, he solved it in the afternoon. The suspect, Chen Hailiang, in their custody, had not revealed anything, and Dong Xuebing managed to find out where the criminals’ transaction will take place. He even rescued all the victims. No one else in the Bureau has this efficiency and capability!

In the afternoon, a few police cars drove Scarface and his men, along with the victims, to Yan Tai County.

Dong Xuebing had ordered Chu Feng and the 3 officers to escort Scarface and his men in the police vehicles, and only Yu Meixia and himself are traveling in the Buicks. Yu Meixia still has not recovered from her fright and was still trembling as she hugged herself in the front passenger seat.

Dong Xuebing took a glance at her and reached over to hold her hand. “Don’t be afraid. I am around.”

Yu Meixia nodded and wiped her tears.

Dong Xuebing made a promise. “It’s my fault for you to go through this. After we go back, I will arrest the people behind this event. You can rest assured.” The person behind had successfully made Dong Xuebing furious. It’s time to settle the score with Jin Di Mansion!

Yan Tai County, Public Security Family Quarters.

Yu Qianqian cried and ran into Yu Meixia’s arms, the moment she stepped into the house. “Mum! Mum!”

Yu Meixia also burst out crying and hugged her daughter tightly. “Qianqian!”

Yu Meixia had called Yu Qianqian using Dong Xuebing’s phone, and Yu Qianqian had been waiting for her at home. Her mother had finally returned, and she refused to let go of her. “I… Sob… sob… I thought I will not see you again… Sob…sob…”

Yu Meixia wiped her tears. “I am back! I will not leave you again.”

Dong Xuebing had a warm feeling in his heart, and he patted Yu Qianqian’s head. “Let your mother rest early today. She got a fright and needs some rest.”

Yu Qianqian cried. “Big Brother! Thank you!”

Yu Meixia looked at Dong Xuebing. “Chief Dong, thank you! Thank you!” She can’t imagine what would happen to her now without Dong Xuebing.

Dong Xuebing waved his hand. “Alright. Sleep early.”

The next morning.

Dong Xuebing met Hu Silian when he arrived at the Public Security Bureau.

Hu Silian laughed and said. “Chief Dong, congratulations. You solved the case.”

Dong Xuebing laughed. “It’s all luck. Oh, how are the victims?”

Hu Silian said. “They are alright and were sent home last night. Scarface and his men are now under interrogation in the Detention Cells.” News of Chief Dong solving the women and children abduction case had spread in the bureau. Along with this case, everyone in the bureau is also talking about Dong Xuebing’s marksmanship. Hu Silian was deeply impressed with Dong Xuebing now. It seems that he can solve all cases.

Dong Xuebing nodded and was about to enter the building when he heard someone shouting behind him.

“Chief Dong! Chief Dong!” Dong Xuebing turned around and saw an old lady at the bureau’s main entrance. Besides the old lady, it was the student who was rescued yesterday. The old lady was stopped by the guards at the gate and was holding up a banner. “Thank you for saving my daughter! Thank you!”

Dong Xuebing was surprised and walked over quickly. “Don’t mention it. It’s our duties.”

The old lady was crying and kept thanking Dong Xuebing. After passing the banner to Dong Xuebing, she and her daughter kneeled to kowtow.

Dong Xuebing hurriedly helped them up. “Please don’t do this.”

Hu Yiguo arrived at the Bureau and saw Dong Xuebing when he alighted from his car. His face turned black. He had not expected Dong Xuebing to solve this case. When he heard about this yesterday, he was stunned for a few minutes. He wondered what happened. Chen Hailiang did not reveal anything useful, and other than him, there are no other clues. How did Dong Xuebing arrest these criminals?

Back in the office, Hu Yiguo called Qian Fei.

Qian Fei asked in a deep voice. “Chief Hu, where did Dong Xuebing get his information from?”

Hu Yiguo sighed. “I also don’t know. But Scarface had admitted that someone had called him to ask him to abduct Yu Meixia. Dong Xuebing is not an idiot and should suspect you now. I think you should let Jin Di Mansions stop their activities for these few days. At least, the casino must be stopped.”

Qian Fei replied coldly. “Don’t say he does not have evidence. Even if he has evidence, I am not afraid of him. Since Yu Meixia is back, let her be. Let this be a lesson for her and Dong Xuebing. If Dong Xuebing still tries to play other tricks, I will take care of him! Chief Hu, thank you for your help.”

Hu Yiguo narrowed his eyes. “Don’t mention it. Err… this case… how will Director Qian….”

Qian Fei laughed. “I had told my father, and it was settled last night. Just buy a copy of the newspaper later.”

Hu Yiguo smiled. Credit and results are what he needed the most now.

Bureau Chief Office.

Liang Chengpeng called Dong Xuebing into his office. “Haha… I heard the victim’s family member had come to the bureau to give you a banner?”

Dong Xuebing nodded. This is the first time he received a banner.

Liang Chengpeng nodded with approval. “You had done well. Give me a detail report before noon, and I will inform the Publicity Department in the afternoon. You will be in the news soon. Hahaha…” The hacker case Dong Xuebing solved was too sensitive as it concerns the County Government Website, and no one was arrested. That’s why the news did not report on it. But this time is different. What Dong Xuebing did was enough to be the headlines in the County’s newspapers.

Dong Xuebing took out a document. “Chief Liang, the report is ready.”

“Ok. Let me see.”

Dong Xuebing knew Liang Chengpeng will ask him for a detailed report, and he wrote it last night. In the story, Dong Xuebing pointed out his contributions to solving the case. He does not have lots of opportunities to be featured in the papers, and this is not the time to be modest. He needs results, and if his name appeared in the papers, the County Government leaders and Provincial Government leaders might notice him.

After reading the report, Liang Chengpeng nodded. “Alright. I will send this report to the Publicity Department. They will write a newspaper article base on this report.” Most of the time, reporters will go to the Public Security Bureau, or the Public Security leaders send the case files over to the Publicity Department. It’s different if Liang Chengpeng sends this report over personally. This is telling the people at the newspaper agency that this case is of great importance, and the article should be on the front few pages.

Dong Xuebing thanked Liang Chengpeng.

Liang Chengpeng placed the report aside and saw today’s Yan Tai County’s newspaper on his desk. He saw a few words, and he grabbed the papers over. His face changed as he read the article, and he threw it on the desk. “What the hell are the people at the newspaper agency doing?! We still have not sent our report over, and they published this article?!”
