Chapter 121: They've Checked, But I Haven't (Part One)
After Xu Cheng was full, Li Chao, who had been staring at him all this time, finally asked, “Are we going to wake up tonight?”
Xu Cheng nodded. “Tell everyone, go to Terminal F at the East Gate port and make an ambush there. Tonight at 6 o'clock, a ship is anchored and carrying a large amount of cash.”
Li Chao nodded. Then, he hurriedly packed everything out of Xu Cheng's car and drove his own car back to the police station. Xu Cheng held his drink and looked at Chang Qing's villa, smiling faintly.
So what if you pay attention to the police system? I can see through you all.
After Chang Qing contacted Hetian, he called his other three brothers. Now, he wasn't sure if the other three had been stalked by the police, but he also didn't trust the others enough.
After the call finally connected to Vermilion Bird's Second Brother, Chang Qing anxiously asked, “What happened on your side?”
“We're fine here, there's no police around watching us, we've checked. Sis, what happened?”
Chang Qing's face turned grim. “Someone may have leaked the plan, and we were unable to transfer the funds in time when the police raided the casino. Now the client and his money are on hold.”
“That's 1.5 billion yuan dark money, what should we do?”
“Huh, Hetian, that Wei farmer, actually wants to burn the bridge and let us handle ourselves those two big clients. Thankfully we keep details of our transactions and can threaten them with it. Now, he temporarily lent us 1.5 billion yuan, but we have to give something as collateral first. Now I don't trust anyone at the West Gate, and the police are already watching me so I can't move without being caught. The three of you go and tell the East Gate that we're going to borrow their port tonight. Exactly at 6 pm, leave for Terminal F and wait for the Hetian ship that will dock there to deliver cash. Then, we will use that cash and pay back our clients first through the underground money house.”
“Where did you put the transaction book?”
“In the safe in our old house.”
“OK, we are running out of time, I will arrange everything soon.” After Vermillion Bird hung up the phone, he immediately went with the other two brothers to their old house. Their old house was basically a nest where they used to live, and it was a village house.
After obtaining the items, the three of them brought about 20 or so Western Gate gangsters and arrived at the East Gate port. The attendant at the gate immediately stopped them and came with some East Gate workers at the port, smiled and greeted them, “Three Master, can we help you?”
From the car, Vermilion Bird lowered the car window and handed out a check. “Help us.”
The manager smiled bitterly. “Not that I don't want to, but you also know that the police are watching the West Gate very closely at the moment, and our East Gate is not completely clean either. Please don't spread the fire to us too.”
Vermilion Bird looked at his watch. There's still 20 minutes until the ship arrives. Immediately, his face showed a hint of displeasure. “Sanpi, we are on the same boat. No need to explain it to You, You and Your boss probably know what will happen to You if the West Gate is destroyed.”
Right now, the Black Tortoise got out of the car and said to the manager, with a little impatience, “How about directly calling your boss for us? Little boy, did your boss not teach you manners?”
Sanpi also became a little angry. “Then I will deliver the message that my boss wants me to convey to you. We can help you, but East Gate should be a shareholder of one of your casinos.”
The Black Tortoise immediately grabbed the man's collar furiously. “Do you have the guts to say that again?”
He directly showed his domineering attitude and sense of superiority, but Sanpi also seemed to have great courage, not being afraid of the three men who had once been legends in this underground world. He still gritted his teeth and said, “If the West Gate collapses, then the East Gate might be lifted.”
“West Gate will not collapse even if East Gate falls!” The Black Tortoise pushed him away and gave him a sharp look. "Wait and just look."
Chapter 121: They've Checked, But I Haven't (Part Two)
“If your boss wants a piece of cake, then he should come and talk to us himself. But for now, let's go in first,” Vermilion Bird looked at Sanpi and said.
Sanpi learns that once she delivers the message, the rest is up to top-level management. So, he stared at his men, and the gate finally opened so they could pass.
Many sedans drove to the port one by one and headed for Terminal F. Not far away, a cargo ship was approaching the dock.
Outside the harbor, Xu Cheng looked at his watch, then he sent his message to the coast guard division that he had previously requested cooperation. "Ready?"
"Ready!"
Then, he gestured and said to the officer who was ambushing with him, “Let's go!”
Suddenly, Sanpi and the others saw more than a dozen police cars appear and go straight through the gate before they closed it. Seeing the heavily armed officers, the faces of the people from the East Gate paled. Just when he thought he should do something, Wu Gang had already put a gun to his head. “Do not move!”
Xu Cheng and the others directly passed through the gate and went to Terminal F, seeing the third car of “Raja” West Gate and his men. The men immediately got off the ship, which tried to leave immediately. But, who would have thought there was a speed boat coast guard who surrounded them until forced to dock.
The three old men behind the West Gate also did not know what else to do and just stayed in the car.
Xu Cheng got out of his car. All the police had taken control of the entire scene, and he immediately went to the sedan carrying the three old men and knocked on the window.
All three looked very calm. They lowered the window and asked, “Officers, what are you doing?”
“I heard you guys made a transaction involving dark money,” Xu Cheng smiled widely and said.
“Who did you hear it from? Are you sure? You can't be too liberal with that mouth, it's a crime,” Vermilion Bird said, being a little impatient.
Xu Cheng laughed. “If you guys didn't commit a crime, why would I have to send this much police force to try to arrest you?”
White Tiger: “You mean dark money, so where is it?”
Xu Cheng pointed to Li Chao. “Go search boat.”
Li Chao nodded, and he boarded the ship with the team to search. Inside the car, the three elders all looked very serious. Just now, they had almost become scared enough to throw all that money into the sea, but Mr. Hetian's men on the ship said it was unnecessary. They have been transporting illicit money and doing smuggling work for years, the ship was specially modified to hide goods. They sounded very confident, but the three bosses behind the West Gate were still not so sure and quite worried.
After waiting for about half an hour, Li Chao came out of the deck and said, with a little sadness, “Bos, we did not find any large amount of cash.”
At that time, Sanpi who was carried sneered and said in an annoyed tone, “What are the police doing right now? Why should there be a major operation if you have no evidence? We all run legal business here.”
Xu Cheng looked at him. “Smuggling and transporting dark money is illegal.”
Sanpi: “I've never seen you before, You're from which criminal investigation team?”
Xu Cheng: “You don't need to know which team. Tonight, we received a report that these people were involved in illicit money transactions. You're in charge of this port, aren't you? What do you want to say?”
Sanpi replied in a dismissive tone, “What are the benefits of your words? Officer, you can't just accuse us of breaking the law. These people are my clients. What you're doing tonight is going to ruin our business relationship. Are you saying our entire port transportation company is also operating illegally?”
Xu Cheng looked at Sanpi. “So you mean, they both trade here today arranged by you? You say these people are your clients, so that means your transportation company has a hand in this too?”
Sanpi thought the police had found nothing, so she could only provide free help to the West Gate if she admitted it. What harm?
“Yes, we always do legitimate business. You also see the boat, which contains electronic products from the opposite shore. We'll report it to Customs. Since you have already done the search, please do not disturb us in running the business. At this hour, we also want to go home from work. Just go away or it will be troublesome if someone else finds out about this police raid and mistakenly thinks that our transport port is doing some obscure business or something.”
Xu Cheng smiled. “They've checked it, but I haven't done it.”
Chapter 122: Confident! (Part one)
The three bosses behind the West Gate, Sanpi, and the others all frowned, all of them looking impatient.
Xu Cheng's men had already examined him, so what was the point of him checking himself out?
Xu Cheng did not say anything, but he walked up to the deck of the ship and said to Wu Gang, “Go and look for the axe.”
Although Wu Gang was confused, he still found the axe from the nearby toolbox on the ship.
“Bos, what should I do?” She asked.
Xu Cheng looked towards the captain, seeing that the man had no expression on his face. Xu Cheng came up to him and said, “I asked again, where did you hide the money?”
The ship captain nonchalantly said, “I don't understand what you're talking about. Do you all police officers like to force people to confess?”
Xu Cheng's eyes swept over everyone, including the three bosses behind the West Gate. “You still survive?”
Right after, he shouted, “Li Chao, Wu Gang!”
"Yes sir!"
Xu Cheng: “Go to the bottom floor of this ship, in the bedroom.”
Both nodded and entered with axes. It was a luxurious bedroom, but they had just searched for it from the inside out.
“Bos, we are here,” shouted them from the window on the side of the ship.
Xu Cheng: “Oke, feel his bed.”
The two looked in bed but found nothing wrong. “Bos, nothing.”
Xu Cheng looked at the captain of the ship as he said to Wu Gang and Li Chao, “The mattress is about 20 centimeters thick, split it and check the inside.
Li Chao immediately went to the kitchen of the ship, took out a knife, and stabbed the mattress, then forcefully tore it apart. Soon, a large amount of cash was spilled. Wu Gang, Li Chao, and the other officers were overjoyed as they shouted, “Bos! The money! The money!"
Xu Cheng looked at the captain with a smile and said, “Is there anything you want to say yourself?”
The captain is still trying to be tough. “We travel to many places by boat and rarely get to the beach, so we prefer to keep our money on board rather than in the bank. Moreover, the cash would not be safe if we kept it in a safe, so we obviously had to hide it somewhere. Not much, just a few million.”
"Ah, really?" Xu Cheng looked at him from the corner of his eyes, then he continued to shout at Li Chao and the others below. “Check the wooden board under your feet, there is a layer of glue sealing it from the water. Destroy the board, use all your strength!”
Just as he said that, the captain of the ship suddenly bumped into an officer on the street and wanted to jump into the water, but Xu Cheng did not even notice when he pulled out his gun and shot him in the leg. Then, the captain fell to the floor as other criminal investigation officers immediately subdued him.
“Fear now?” Xu Cheng sheathed his weapon, and he looked at the captain, half smiling mockingly.
On the other hand, Sanpi and her three bosses were all pale-faced. Seeing how the captain of the ship was trying to escape, they learned the money was hidden there.
Sure enough, not too long later, Li Chao shouted in spirit, “Bos! All the money is under the floorboards! There's an awful lot, at least 5 billion yuan in cash!
The police officers and the coast guard took a deep breath after hearing that.
The three West Gate bosses instantly shouted, “We are here just to get electronic products, we know nothing about money!”
Xu Cheng sneered. “If you have anything to say, just say it in court. Catch them all!”
"Yes sir!"
Criminal police officers immediately began handcuffing people and putting them in cars. Li Chao, Wu Gang, and the others were busy packing money and trying to count. Xu Cheng met the captain of the ship, crouched down, and asked him, “Send those items, and I can alleviate some of your crimes. You are in charge of this ship, so you probably know that there is enough dark money on board to get you sentenced to death.”
Chapter 122: Confident! (Second part)
The captain of the ship was still breathing because of the pain, and he was not stupid either. He knew he still had a certain value, and the thing this attendant asked about was probably the books that the three heads of the West Gate had brought.
“You can take the money. Let me go, I can also give you those books,” he said.
Xu Cheng was completely fed up with people like him who would sell his teammates, and on the battlefield, he would finish him off with a single bullet and definitely did not have the patience to ask.
“You think I can't find it? I gave you one last chance, you don't need to take it,” Xu Cheng narrowed his eyes and said.
The killing intent he had unleashed from his eyes gave the back of the captain of this ship goosebumps. “This... is on the top shelf in the fridge..”.
"Bring him back." Xu Cheng emotionlessly ordered the officers to take him to the police car.
Xu Cheng went to the fridge at the front of the ship and found the archive bag. Then, the team left the harbor.
On that day, the Police Chief was very busy. All the other teams and departments were looking at the people from Team 2 going in and out and handing over all sorts of evidence. They had already heard that they managed to confiscate a large amount of dark money from the underground money house and also closed one of the largest casinos in the city. It was the largest that the West Gate had, and it was equivalent to pulling out a tiger tooth.
Looking at the small Team 2 office, they knew things would not be the same anymore. Team 2 was always silent, but as they moved, they managed to catch a big fish.
They heard that at least 10 billion yuan of unrecorded cash was seized at the casino, and then they also confiscated another 10 billion yuan at the port. This is essentially the biggest money laundering case they have seen in recent years.
Li Chao, Wu Gang, and the other members of Team 2 were very busy today, but they were enjoying the pain. They were very happy to see how the other comrades in the headquarters looked at them. In the past, they have always seen other teams like that.
After all, the higher-ups were very happy with this operation, and it was rumored that the director was basically hovering above the clouds when he went to the provincial meeting. Last time, after taking care of the North Gate, the mayor launched a city development project, and it was rumored that some real estate businesses invested more than tens of billions of yuan into the project. All of these are great achievements! Then, this time, they confiscated an unrecorded amount of dark money, the director immediately gave Xu Cheng considerable strength so that he could follow up on the case.
Now, even idiots know that this time, Team 2 not only took hot potatoes, they did an amazing job. They have just made an incredible comeback, especially the captain of Team 2. From this lightning-fast operation, it was seen how capable this captain was. From today onwards, it seemed like no one else could underestimate him.
After submitting some reports, he returned to the cramped Team 2 Office. Right after he entered the room, he saw Li Chao and the others standing there and saluting him.
“What do you smoke?” Xu Cheng was confused.
Wu Gang said excitedly, “Bos, this time we are 100% sure to be your follower!”
The others nodded.
Putting down the document, Xu Cheng placed his hand on the table and said, “Listen, this case is not finished yet, you might still have to be busy for a few more days. But you can trust me.”
“We all trust you!”
Chapter 123: You Scared Me (Part one)
Just as Xu Cheng was preparing to talk about his next move, their office door was opened. It was Li Dazhuang. The person angrily came to Xu Cheng, deepened his voice, and demanded from Xu Cheng with an interrogative attitude, “Give me an explanation.”
Xu Cheng raised his eyebrows and looked at him from the corner of his eyes. “What explanation?”
“Everything is going well and for the joint operation, our special police unit is supposed to cooperate with you, but why did you suddenly choose to cooperate with another criminal investigation unit and not tell us?” Li Dazhuang asked angrily.
Xu Cheng replied, “I think you guys will be very busy and tired after seizing one big casino, so I ask others to help me in the operation of the port.”
Li Dazhuang narrowed his eyes. “Xu Cheng, let me tell you, we may have a personal grudge and you can directly come to me only, but you said that we will cooperate for this mission, We will, but now you're basically giving glory to another unit. I'm not going to let this happen if you can't give me a decent explanation today. I do this not for me, but our entire dedicated police department.”
Xu Cheng looked at him and said in a deep voice, “You don't need to make yourself sound so great and selfless, what kind of explanation do you want? Can you get out first? My office. If you want to argue, go and argue outside. If you want to cause trouble here, maybe we can talk at the Ministry of Justice?”
In addition, the ten members of Team 2 who had just pledged their support towards Xu Cheng were also dissatisfied with the way their boss was treated, so they all surrounded Li Dazhuang. "What do you want to do?"
Li Dazhuang directly raised his eyebrows and looked at the other ten officers. “You're all irrelevant, get out of my sight.”
“You came to Team 2's office to make a fuss, and you still said that we are irrelevant?” Li Chao and the others were furious, how could this fellow dare to throw a tantrum in their territory?
Outside the door, Li Dazhuang's subordinates, who initially did not want to follow him to interrogate Xu Cheng, immediately rushed in as well after seeing how Team 2 was gangbanging on their boss. “According to you, what are you doing!”
Xu Cheng's face was grim. He let the two sides shout and pushed each other, while coldly staring at Li Dazhuang and saying, “If you want to fight, let's go now. If anyone wants to fight me, just get out. Don't talk much.”
As he said that, the 5 people on Li Dazhuang's side instantly shut up.
Li Dazhuang snorted, “In short, you have to give us an explanation to get around in our department to get reinforcement.”
“What exactly is this commotion?” At that moment, the director of the Criminal Investigation Department appeared, and seeing how both sides were in a stalemate, he loudly shouted, “You think you're a gangster?”
Both sides immediately withdrew. The director of the department entered, looked at Li Dazhuang and his men and asked, “Li Dazhuang, what are you doing in the office of Team 2?”
Li Dazhuang said, looking very unhappy, “Master, I just want to ask Captain Xu about why they are cooperating with the criminal police unit rather than the special police force for this port operation. If the reason is due to a personal grudge between me and him, then I think Captain Xu is unprofessional and needs to be punished.”
The director observed Li Dazhuang deeper and said, “Oh? What punishment do you think he should accept? The entire operation was directed by him, and was very successful. Although there are still suspects who have not been caught, the amount of cash seized is incredible. Do you know what this level of achievement is?”
Li Dazhuang was still unwilling to give up. “I know, but during the operation, we from the special forces unit do not feel respected, whereas personally I am fine.”
Chapter 123: You Scared Me (Part two)
Li Dazhuang suddenly felt a little guilty, but he still tried to display the image of a tough man. “I just want to know if Captain Xu did not ask us because of my personal grudge against him.”
Director: “Then let me tell you, the decision to temporarily call the criminal investigation unit to strengthen Xu Cheng instead of calling the special police unit is also my decision!”
Li Dazhuang's eyes immediately became bigger. "What's? D-Director, is that your decision? But why?"
"You want to know why?" The director observed the officers of the special forces unit as if he was interrogating them, and he said in a deeper voice, “Since from the previous operation, we found a mole in our headquarters! And this mole comes from a special forces unit.”
The special forces officers were stunned, and someone immediately said, “That's impossible, right?”
The director replied, “In our initial plan, we were able to trace them all the way to the underground money house, but during the process, someone leaked our operation, causing the operation to eventually fall apart.”
At this moment, the director glanced at Li Dazhuang's people with another meaning and coldly said, “If I find out who the mole is, I don't think I need to remind you of all the consequences. Your Director has already got my report, so you guys should go back to your department and check yourself first.”
Since the director had already talked about this, Li Dazhuang and the others had no face to stay here any longer.
After they left, Li Dazhuang's men saw that Li Dazhuang's face did not look good.
“You go first, I have to go to the restroom first.” After saying that to his subordinates, Li Dazhuang went to the restroom, and he immediately pulled out his phone to erase his call history. But, he still felt uncomfortable about it. Even if he were to remove it, the other party still had it! The other end should remove it too!
Previously, the reason he had gone to Team 2's office to look for trouble was only so that Xu Cheng could compromise and possibly leak the details of their next operation, let him tell the West Gate beforehand. However, who would have thought the director of the department would come. From what the director had told him and his people, could it be that they had already suspected him of being the culprit?
Li Dazhuang felt a crisis.
That's right, he's the mole! In the past, when Team 5 was handling the West Gate case, he used the reason he liked Ran Jing and was close to Team 5 to get a lot of information about their operation. He could tell the West Gate in advance at any time, and that was why Team 5 had never succeeded in the case of the West Gate!
After Xu Cheng and Team 2 took over, the reason the West Gate was caught off guard was also because of what Li Dazhuang had said. However, Li Dazhuang had no idea Xu Cheng would be this powerful; all of his plans were truly godlike.
If the West Gate could be given a second chance, they would definitely not underestimate Team 2. Now, the West Gate only wanted to curse at Li Dazhuang: You son of a bitch! You screwed us! What is the meaning of the incapable Team 2 you are talking about? How about “routine inspection” with tax bureau? What's going on now? Shit, hit the fan!
After Li Dazhuang came out of the bathroom, he saw Xu Cheng.
"What are you doing?" Xu Cheng looked at him as if he was smiling.
“Can't you see? I was leaking it.” Li Dazhuang tried to make a louder voice to cover up his guilt. Then, he walked past Xu Cheng, but he heard Xu Cheng indifferently say, “Is that you?”
With his back facing Xu Cheng, Li Dazhuang's eyelids twitched. Then, he turned around and asked Xu Cheng with a serious face, looking into his eyes.
“A-What do you mean?”
Xu Cheng pointed to a stall inside the bathroom. “Are you not flushing?”
Li Dazhuang almost died choking on his own saliva.
Chapter 124: Are You Looking For This? (Part one)
This time, the special police team involved in cooperation with Team 2 were all investigated. Everyone stopped the existing work, and they had to hand over all communication equipment for inspection.
Standing and waiting outside the door, Li Dazhuang looked at the special police officers who were all being examined. He was standing there alone smoking. He really wanted to leave, but his superior gave the order that no one in this department should leave in the next few days, at least until the examination was completed.
But that was fine, as currently only his subordinates were being investigated, and it seemed like he, as an instructor, did not need to be examined.
When his colleagues came out, he asked, “What happened, have they found the mole?”
His colleagues shook their heads. “We still don't know. Almost everyone has checked, and this will be over soon.”
Li Dazhuang sighed in relief. Just at that moment, the inspector suddenly saw him at the doorstep and said, “Li Dazhuang, give me your phone.”
Li Dazhuang's heart was pounding, and he immediately said, “I'm not even involved in this operation.”
Inspector: “But you are involved in the planning of tactical and operational placements, so you should be checked.”
Li Dazhuang was a bit hesitant. “What do you want to check?”
Inspector: “Give your phone to me, we need to do regular check.”
Li Dazhuang: “Is it necessary?”
Inspector said very seriously, “This is an order, please cooperate with us. Even though you are a special police department instructor, you remain part of the team and need to be checked.”
After a while the two adult men looked at each other, Li Dazhuang finally handed over his office phone registered at the police bureau.
The inspector turned around and gave it to the technician.
It was an office phone, so there was obviously no problem with that phone so he was not afraid to check it out. He threw the other phone into the toilet.
The inspector looked at him and asked again, “Do you have another mobile number used?”
Li Dazhuang instantly became furious. "Whatchu mean? You suspect I'm the mole?”
Inspector: “Do not be nervous, I just ask.”
After the examination was over, Li Dazhuang put his phone back in his pocket and left the police headquarters. He drove straight to the public phone booth far from the headquarters and dialed the number to Chang Qing.
"Hello?"
“It's me, Li Dazhuang.”
On the other end of the phone, Chang Qing exclaimed in a hoarse voice, “Save me!”
Li Dazhuang narrowed his eyes. “How do I save you? Hurry up, almost all of your men are captured, and if you are captured as well, then I too will be cursed. I'll arrange for you to exit this country.”
Chang Qing: “No! I cannot leave this country! I would have died sooner had I not been in Huaxia! The power of the underground money house is spread all over the world, and the drug lords of South Asia also have money for me. I need you to help me, and I will be safe only if I stay in the countryside.”
Li Dazhuang immediately shouted, “Keep azzku! The police are watching you, how do you want me to help you?”
Chang Qing: “I have not been proven guilty, and they are just monitoring my villa and can't do anything about it. But, my time is not much anymore. If I can't pay back the money, I probably won't live more than 24 hours. Aren't you afraid I'll expose you as a mole? Just help me, and I will destroy all the evidence and records of our calls and text messages.”
Li Dazhuang's face sank. “What do you want me to do?”
Chang Qing: “Come catch me. Just take me to jail on any charges, and I will arrange for my lawyer to sell all my possessions to save me. After that, I will take care of myself.”
A killing intent flashed in Li Dazhuang's eyes.
"Where are you?"
“Di vyakan.”
“I'll be waiting for you at the back door of your villa.” After hanging up the phone, Li Dazhuang got into his car, and he immediately drove towards where Chang Qing was. When he went around the alley to get to the back door of Chang Qing's villa, he was a little surprised to find a sedan already waiting there.
Chapter 124: Are You Looking For This? (Second part)
He honked but was surprised to see the person who got out of the car was none other than Xu Cheng.
Xu Cheng got out of the car and lit a cigarette. After smoking, he looked at Li Dazhuang and asked, “Where are you going?”
Li Dazhuang's face sank as he looked towards Xu Cheng, trying to make himself feel calmer. "That's none of your business. Get out of my face."
Xu Cheng: “Are you here to pick up Chang Qing?”
Li Dazhuang: “I'm here to catch him. I've got proof of his crime, so don't get in my way.”
Xu Cheng: “What if I say no?”
Li Dazhuang immediately felt cold. “Xu Cheng, I have tolerated you too long, you know that?”
Xu Cheng: “Yes, I know, that's why I'm here waiting for you.”
Li Dazhuang ignored him and directly retreated from the valley with his car. When he reached the front door, he saw that Chang Qing had been brought into the police car by Wu Gang and the others. Li Dazhuang immediately became anxious, and he approached to ask Chang Qing, “Did you leave something in your house.”
Chang Qing gave him a meaningful look as he said, “Yes, it's under my bed.”
Li Dazhuang immediately turned around and walked into Chang Qing's villa, heading straight for his bedroom. When he nervously flipped the wooden frame, he found nothing underneath. Then, he immediately opened the mattress to search for their contact records.
As he was rummaging through the mess, Xu Cheng indifferently walked over and asked, “Are you looking for this?”
Li Dazhuang was shocked. He turned around and saw Xu Cheng holding a small book. His eyes narrowed as a cold light flashed.
Xu Cheng casually opened the book and said, “This phone note shows that Chang Qing is often in contact with one particular number. I became very curious, so I couldn't help but investigate. It turned out that the owner of the strange number calling with Chang Qing sounded very similar to you. That day, I was a bit confused, we were just on our way trailing Chang Qing and nearly finished off the entire underground money house, he said, but who would have thought they would realize that they were being followed and immediately go home. I know it's you, but I'm pretty curious, why didn't you tell them before I confiscated their casino?”
Li Dazhuang did not bother to hide it anymore. He looked at Xu Cheng and said, “How can I? From start to finish, you don't even tell your subordinates in advance what happened. To be honest, I underestimated you, and this was probably because I always underestimated you. I originally thought that no matter how hard you and Team 2 tried, you and those useless people would find nothing in your surprise attack. But who would have thought it turns out you are not as simple as it looks. But, do you think you can charge me with just a random number that doesn't have a real name listed?”
Xu Cheng: “What if Chang Qing testifies against you?”
Li Dazhuang laughed. “He won't do it.”
Xu Cheng also laughed. “Why are you so confident?”
Li Dazhuang replied, “Let me tell you, I've been a police officer longer than you. You think you can destroy me with just a few tricks? I can only say that you are still a beginner.”
Xu Cheng: “Just because you all thought I was a beginner, that's why you're all going to jail now.”
Chapter 125: Bait (Part one)
Li Dazhuang snorted and said, “I let my guard down. If I was careful at first and told the West Gate first, you wouldn't be where you are at the moment.”
Xu Cheng: “Did you not reveal my plans?”
Then, he continued, “Since I took over the West Gate case from Team 5, the West Gate instantly knew about it. That kind of speed just means they're keeping an eye on our backline, but I don't know who it is. So, before I could confirm it, I told Team 2 to work in secret, and the retarded action plan I submitted was only a cover. I think another reason why you're off guard is because of those action plans, right? So, not only you, the West Gate also does not take me seriously and it makes my job much easier.”
Li Dazhuang looked at him, curious. “Then how did you know I was his mole?”
Xu Cheng smiled. “At first I didn't know, but when we called the special police unit as an aid to raid the underground money house, the, one could leak the plan to Chang Qing in no time while he was heading there. That means there must be at least one spy inside a special police unit. Your great captain is definitely not a captain because of his past history and achievements, so I can only suspect you and the other team captains. I Don't know it's you until you make one move that exposes yourself.”
Just then, Xu Cheng looked at Li Dazhuang, who at that moment looked like an idiot. “I deliberately stopped cooperation with special police forces and worked with other teams in the criminal investigation unit. I knew Chang Qing would be the most anxious person at the time, and he would definitely call the mole rat to tell him that he had to figure out what my next move would be. At that moment, you jumped out and came to interrogate me with such grandiose excuses. I know you don't really care about the special police force sharing the award, but you really want to unite our units so that you can convey my next move to Chang Qing in time. So, you revealed yourself back then, and in my opinion, it was a beginner's move for an experienced self-proclaimed cop.”
Li Dazhuang gritted his teeth. “You're fine. I'm a mole in the police force, but other than Chang Qing, you don't have any solid evidence to file charges against me.”
Xu Cheng: “Chang Qing is enough, and he will testify. If you don't believe me, just wait and see.”
After saying that, Xu Cheng turned around and left.
Li Dazhuang directly took out his weapon and pointed it at Xu Cheng's back, but he wasn't stupid. There were so many police officers outside, and they would definitely attack after hearing the sound of gunfire. At that time, he will definitely go to jail. Seeing how Xu Cheng walked away like a victor, he angrily gritted his teeth, feeling like he had been played with by Xu Cheng from start to finish. What a horrible feeling to not be able to reciprocate. Even at that moment, he was desperate to kill Xu Cheng, but Xu Cheng still predicted that he would not have the guts to shoot.
Li Dazhuang became so angry that he put his gun back in his scabbard and kicked the sofa inside the bedroom.
Not long after, Li Chao and Wu Gang walked in and said to him, “You are accused of colluding with the West Gate, please come back with us and accept the investigation.”
As Li Chao said this, he took out a pair of handcuffs, but Li Dazhuang immediately glared back and snorted, “Wait until the charges are proven first! I am a police officer, no one dared to handcuff me.”
Then, he left the villa and got into the police car.
At the headquarters, inside the interrogation room, Xu Cheng said to Chang Qing who was sitting opposite him, “There is not enough evidence to bring charges against you, so you are free to go.”
Chang Qing thought he heard wrong and he immediately looked up and asked, “I can go?”
Xu Cheng nodded.
Chapter 125: Bait (Part two)
Chang Qing shook his head and directly said, “No, no, no, no, no, I can't leave. I'm guilty."
He came intentionally. If he wanders outside the police headquarters, who knows what those South Asian gangsters will do to him! Those people are all professional killers!
Xu Cheng's assistant Wu Gang, who was sitting beside Xu Cheng, looked at him strangely. This was the first time he had heard someone say they were guilty and wanted to remain in prison.
“Do not interfere with our fair assessment. You are innocent, so you are free to go,” Xu Cheng said again.
Chang Qing instantly got up and shouted, “Are you not thinking of taking me to court every day? I'm here! Why declare me innocent after accepting me? Why put so many officers around my villa to keep an eye on me? Let me tell you, I am the hidden boss behind the West Gate, and I am inseparable with the development that the West Gate has been able to achieve over the years. Didn't you always want to know who is behind the giant kingdom that is the West Gate? It's me!"
"You?" Wu Gang acted as if he did not believe a word the man said, and he even sneered, “Only you? Come on, just fantasize somewhere else. Quickly, you can go now.”
Then, Xu Cheng got up, packed up, and left. Wu Gang also followed him out.
Then, someone walked in, opened Chang Qing's handcuffs for her, and said to her, “The door is there, you can leave now.”
Chang Qing was just sitting there, as if he really did not want to leave. “How much does it cost to stay here per night?”
The officer thought he heard wrong. “Has your head hit somewhere? Hurry up, we are fair and just, and we will not hold someone here if they do not commit a crime.”
"Yes!" Chang Qing immediately said.
The officer felt this person must have gone mad, so he ignored him and left.
When Chang Qing came out and entered the corridor, he saw the officers walking past him, busy with a heavy workload lately. Suddenly, he took out a matchstick from his pocket and threw it at one of the chief officers. The officer was immediately furious and immediately approached, wanting to beat him up.
“Did you attack an officer? Do you know where you are? You still dare to hit the officer at the Police Headquarters? You think I won't catch you right away?”
Chang Qing nodded. “Yes, I deliberately attacked you. How many days are you gonna arrest me?”
The attendant was furious, and when he wanted to handcuff him and take him behind bars, Li Chao immediately walked over and said, “This guy has a mental problem, just let him go. He constantly fantasizes about being arrested, maybe even contacting the hospital.”
The officer who was shot in the head paused for a moment. If he was truly someone with a mental illness, then they would not be able to bring charges against him.
Li Chao directly dragged Chang Qing towards the door, exited the gate, and then had the security guards expel him.
Chang Qing felt extremely anxious. Since he could not hide in the prison, he could only escape and hide first.
After he left, near the window on the third floor, Xu Cheng said to Wu Gang, “Show him well.”
Wu Gang nodded. “Bos, since this guy is an accomplice of three other old men, why not catch him too?”
Xu Cheng replied, “We only have this big bait left, so we will make good use of it. The transfer agreement seized today at the port was the guarantee he gave to borrow money from the underground money house. If those people not only lost 1.5 billion but also did not get a transfer agreement, then they would come and look for it. If we want to capture people from the underground money house, we can only use Chang Qing as bait.”
