Zhou Xiaoqiang asked reluctantly, “Who the hell is this man, this identity, and how did he come to this place?”
Even though their voices were small, I could still hear them.
The prison guard hurriedly said, “Yes, it’s possible, it could be the Chen family who invited him to clean him up. This kid has made such a big mess, we have to hire someone with weight to hold down the scene.”
“Yeah, do you think he might be here for Zhang Chao.”
The man first glanced back at Zhou Xiaoqiang and the prison guard behind him, gesturing for the director to get these two out first. The chief hated to rip these two men’s faces off and immediately gestured to his men.
I stood up straight, a full head taller than this man, but under his solemn gaze, I always felt I was still a new recruit in training.
I couldn’t salute, I could only stand at attention.
“Old Chief!”
“Chief is chief, don’t add the word old.”
I could clearly feel that the jaws of the top bra*s of the police department following him were about to drop to the floor.
For a full five seconds, it was Chief Zhang who reacted quickly and had his men unlock my handcuffs.
I gave a proper military salute, moved beyond words in my heart.
I knew someone would come to my rescue, Han Kun would come, but I could never have imagined that the old chief, would fly from the southwest to here for me!
After the military salute, the old chief opened his arms and hugged me.
“All right, sit down.”
The chief turned his head and asked Chief Zhang, “How are your police handling the torture to extract a confession now?”
“Old …… Chief, your instructions.”
“The military and the police are two systems, how can I direct your work. This time, I am instructing to take an old leader, to be close, Zhang Chao and I lived and died together on the battlefield, it is not too much to say that we are father and son, I am visiting him in this capacity, but I can’t go against the law and use my authority indiscriminately. It is better for Chief Zhang to instruct.”
Despite the fact that not a single powerful word was said in these words, Chief Zhang’s sweat was dripping down to his heels.
The four words of father-son love were sheepish and more oppressive than any intimidating words.
Just ask, who would dare to lay a hand on a man who was in a father-son relationship with the old chief?
At this moment, Director Zhang could not wait to get this guy Zhou Xiaoqiang to death and said through gritted teeth, “Dismissed!”
Zhou Xiaoqiang, he could never have imagined that his career, just like that, would be ruined.
“Go deal with it, you people go out for a while, Zhang Chao and I have a few words to say, what I came over today, must be kept secret!”
“Old man!”
I quickly caught up with the old chief, put my arm around his shoulders and shamelessly dripped up to him.
“I’ve told you many times, it’s okay to call you chief, not old man.”
My heart burst with joy, “I really didn’t expect to see you in Tongcheng, I’ll be the host today, let me treat you to a good meal!”
I didn’t expect the old head’s face to snap up and he pushed me, “Go, you’ve forgotten the discipline in the army. I can’t eat your treat!”
I went up to help him, and he pushed again in anger.
“You think I’m really so old that I can’t walk? It’s a good thing you’re not a soldier under me anymore, or I’d have to make you a charge of disrespecting your superiors.”
I laughed out loud, when a small man next to me shouted enthusiastically, “Team Zhang!”
“Little Cai! You’ve come with us too!”
“The chief said he was coming to Tong City, so I made a fuss and came along. Zhang right, we haven’t seen each other for a long time! You didn’t say anything about going back to Snow Leopard for a look!”
I really didn’t expect to meet so many of my teammates here, these familiar and reliable comrades!
It’s been so long since I left the army, and they are the ones I can’t forget. Those days when I fought side by side, despite the artillery fire, I wasn’t scared at all because I had them behind me.
I wanted to invite them both to dinner, no matter what I said, but the chief refused.
“Old man, you’re being ungenerous like that. You’ve come to Tong City for a long time and you still won’t let me treat you to a meal. If you’re not hungry, isn’t Cai hungry?”
Just as I finished speaking, Xiao Cai smiled nervously at me, “Team Zhang, I’m not hungry.”
I rubbed his head, “Silly boy.”
The chief half-smiled and said, “You really want to treat yourself, I’ve brought a platoon over, so you can treat them all.”
I counted the number of people and without thinking much about it at all, I patted my chest and said, “Sure, Chief, lend me your phone and I’ll make the arrangements.”
My phone was taken over by the guardhouse.
Xiao Cai looked at me again in the rearview mirror and smiled nervously, “Team Zhang, how expensive that must be. Only the two of us, the old head and I, came over without a platoon.”
The chief glanced at me and said, “This kid is rich now, calling you Zhang Half City is not an exaggeration, right? Tell me, how did you, the son of the richest man, end up in such a state? Your Zhang family doesn’t care about you?”
I scratched the back of my head, so I had to tell them everything that had happened since I returned to Tong City.
I would not hide anything at all from the chief and Xiao Cai, these two were the people I trusted the most, and I could be sure that the two of them would never betray me.
After hearing me out, the old chief nodded: “You know how to hide your identity, you don’t seem to be complacent. I’ve come to the right place to find you.”
“Old man, you didn’t come here to bail me out?” I froze.
The old chief laughed, “Have you been caught by terrorists or captured by the enemy, and you need me to replace you? The soldiers under my command are capable of suffering, suffering, and suffering, so you can afford to suffer.”
I was so depressed that I muttered, “This is a real aggravation.”
Xiao Cai smiled and came up, “Team Zhang, don’t listen to the chief. We’ve come to see you this time for something important. What do you think it is?”
He pulled out a pistol from his pocket and threw it to me.
I padded it and the more I looked at it, the more familiar it looked. I lifted it up and took aim, and the outrageous off-center aim made me remember what it was all about at once.
“I’ve got one just like it there.”
“What?!” This time it was the old chief and Xiao Cai who were surprised.
“A few days ago, a Thai a*sa*sin tried to a*sa*sinate me with this kind of gun, but I took it down.”
“You can be sure it was this kind of gun? You won’t be mistaken?”
“There’s no way I could be mistaken. It’s a heavy gun, obviously homemade, with no rifling and a horribly skewed aim, it’s definitely the same batch.” The old man had been guarding the southwest border with his special forces, he would never have come this far for such a gun, so I added, “Is it a gun smuggled from outside the country?”
The old chief nodded, “That’s right. We’ve been watching this smuggled arms shipment for a long time, but unfortunately, we lost it and the last lead was broken in Tong City.”
“This matter should be dealt with the police.” I said.
The old chief frowned and waved his hand, “It’s not as simple as you think.”
I stared at the gun for a moment and thought about it before I understood the old chief’s concern.
This batch of guns, which Snow Leopard had been watching for so long, had finally been lost in Tongcheng. This meant that someone in Tongcheng had “laundered” the guns.
To launder such a hot batch of goods, ordinary people couldn’t do it.
“You’re worried, there’s a black man among these cops.”
The old chief nodded in silence.
Xiao Cai said, “Originally, we also planned to operate jointly with the police, but after your incident, we had to adjust our plan.”
The old chief smiled coldly and said, “I’m afraid this Tong City is even more black than I imagined.”
“Do you want me to investigate?”
“We don’t know the city well, and we can’t trust the police. I’m afraid that the black ones will wake up before we can start our operation.”
This was the subtext in our force, meaning that the black police in the police would then be aware of our movements.
