Chapter 18 is all about the thrill!
Baldy struggled to turn over and send a distress signal to Ji Yunhao.
Ji Yunhao was going all out. He was already on this pirate ship, and there was no way he could get off now, especially since there were important figures protecting him.
"As law enforcement officers, they are breaking the law in broad daylight. Handcuff them all!"
The words "handcuffed" immediately triggered a psychological reaction in Zhao Donglai.
The public security brigade is pretty tough; they even dared to handcuff Qi Tongwei, that living devil. Good luck to him. Anyway, he didn't do anything. I'll do whatever you say, big brother. I'll applaud when you take action.
Qi Tongwei straightened his clothes, took out his prosecutor's badge, flashed it in front of the public security brigade, and prepared to show off again.
"The Public Security Brigade, right? What's your name?"
Ji Yunhao was a little confused. Could someone tell me what was going on?
"My name is Ji Yunhao, what's yours?"
Qi Tongwei took a few steps forward. "My name is Qi Tongwei, and I'm a prosecutor. While I was eating, these thugs came up to the rice noodle shop owner and demanded protection money, claiming they were the ones collecting it all over the street."
"I would like to ask Captain Ji, is the Public Security Brigade aware of this, or are they deliberately turning a blind eye, or even colluding with them?"
This barrage of questions made Ji Yunhao a little flustered.
"Everything requires evidence. If you don't have any evidence, I believe you're engaged in a fight. According to the Public Security Administration Punishment Regulations, you must come with me to the Public Security Brigade for investigation."
Qi Tongwei gave a wicked smile, "Looks like they really are a den of snakes and rats."
Ji Yunhao was furious. "Watch your words, or I can sue you for defamation."
Qi Tongwei pulled out his prosecutor's badge again. "Do you know what the word 'prosecutor' means? In the Ming Dynasty, it would be equivalent to the Embroidered Uniform Guard. What official would dare to embezzle or accept bribes? They would confiscate their property and exterminate their entire family."
"If this were the Tang Dynasty, he'd be an imperial censor, like Wei Zheng, right? Even Emperor Taizong of Tang, one of the greatest emperors in Chinese history, was wary of him. Damn, I must be crazy to be telling this to a bunch of illiterate people like you."
Ji Yunhao's face turned green with anger. "Cuff him! If he dares to resist, treat it as assaulting a police officer."
The security team was called illiterate, and they were all indignant. Of course they knew about the protection money, because they had received plenty of benefits from it. If they didn't take it, they would be ostracized.
Qi Tongwei twisted his neck and clenched his fists, completely ignoring Ji Yunhao's words.
“I think the public security brigade needs a complete overhaul. You guys are no different from these petty thugs, or even worse. The government pays our salaries not to support parasites like you.”
No one in the public security brigade could tolerate being pointed at and cursed like that, but when they saw the thugs lying on the ground, they might not be able to win in a fight unless they used guns.
There has never been a precedent for gunfire between the public security, procuratorate, and judicial authorities in Handong Province. The first one to stick his neck out will surely die a terrible death.
Furthermore, Qi Tongwei had already done this once before at the police station, but escaped unscathed.
Ji Yunhao was the first to not dare to make a move. As the leader of the public security brigade, he naturally had his subordinates rush to the front to block the guns.
He gave a wink to Jin Bo, one of the team members who was usually the best player.
Jinbo gripped the police baton tightly.
"Brothers, I'll be the first one in. I don't believe he'd dare assault a police officer."
Qi Tongwei stared fiercely at Jin Bo, who rushed over and smashed a stick into his head.
Qi Tongwei dodged to the side, and Jin Bo's strike missed its mark. Unfortunately, he only had one chance.
Qi Tongwei grabbed Jin Bo's wrist, twisted it downwards, and then kicked him in the chest, sending him flying. Jin Bo was defeated in one move.
Qi Tongwei, holding the police baton he had snatched from Jin Bo, pointed it at the Public Security Brigade, determined to show off once more.
"Knowing full well that he's throwing his eggs against a rock, he still dares to come and die. I think highly of him."
"You bunch of good-for-nothings, if you have any shame, hurry up and take these thugs back with you!"
"These restaurant owners work so hard, paying taxes to the country just to support a bunch of good-for-nothings like you."
"What kind of behavior is this? It's like eating from the pot and cursing the cook."
Qi Tongwei unleashed another barrage of attacks, and the officers of the Public Security Brigade were itching to tear him apart, but unfortunately, they were powerless to do so.
Ji Yunhao placed his hand on the gun; this was a great disgrace to the Public Security Brigade.
What can be endured and what cannot be endured.
He pulled out his gun without hesitation and pointed it at Qi Tongwei.
Zhao Donglai quickly pulled out his gun and aimed it at Ji Yunhao.
Ji Yunhao completely ignored Zhao Donglai, saying, "Go ahead and say it if you dare, or I'll blow your head off."
"Captain Ji, I advise you not to act impulsively."
Zhao Donglai was very nervous; his heart was pounding from the very first day he was with Qi Tongwei.
Qi Tongwei threw down his baton. "You're a fucking piece of trash, and you won't even let me say that? I'm ashamed of you! Go ahead and shoot, act like a man!"
"Brother, don't provoke him. What if he shoots?"
Zhao Donglai was so anxious that he tried to persuade both sides.
The police officers were all staring at Ji Yunhao, and they were all terrified of him. He was good at bullying small vendors, but Qi Tongwei was a complete desperado.
Ji Yunhao is now in a precarious position; he holds the highest rank here, and no one can offer him a way out.
"Listen to me, everyone."
Ye Xuan bravely stepped forward; Qi Tongwei had gone too far, and she dared not gamble.
"I am a reporter from the provincial television station, and I can testify that the rice noodle shop owner was being extorted and extorted for protection money."
If the provincial TV reporter reports this, it will be troublesome.
Ji Yunhao gritted his teeth and put down his gun.
"Take them back to me."
The situation was beyond their control, so the police quickly arrested the thugs on the ground and sent them to the hospital.
Zhao Donglai patted Qi Tongwei on the shoulder, "Brother, you're really something, are you in a hurry to be reincarnated?"
Qi Tongwei grabbed him by the neck with his other hand, saying, "How could you possibly guess what your brother is thinking?"
Zhao Donglai gripped Qi Tongwei's arm tightly, "Brother, just say what you want to say, why resort to violence? I know you can fight."
Qi Tongwei shoved him aside, "Looks like there are a lot of problems. Lu Peng is probably just someone else's front man."
"Brother, stop worrying about the country and its people. Your arm is bleeding; go to the hospital to get it bandaged."
Qi Tongwei looked and thought, "Damn it, I've stumbled and been slashed by some thugs."
"It's nothing, what's a little blood to a man? Reporter Ye, you were very brave just now."
Ye Xuan was terrified. The police drawing their guns and pointing them at each other was a very serious matter.
"Qi Tongwei, I'm starting to realize you're really sick. Why can't you handle problems more tactfully instead of making everyone so tense?"
"If I don't go to hell, who will? The world will eventually understand my sacrifice."
Qi Tongwei put on an air of profound mystery.
"You're really quite ill. Give me the keys, I'll drive to the hospital."
Ye Xuan snatched the keys and stormed into the car.
Zhao Donglai laughed and said, "Brother, it seems you've really angered Reporter Ye."
"I'm afraid she won't introduce you to the pretty girls on TV."
I will definitely meet my goddess.
Actually, I know where your goddess is.
"Where"
"Far away, yet so close at hand."
I have no issues with reporter Ye.
"An explanation is just a cover-up."
Ye Xuan rolled down the car window, somewhat annoyed, "Are you two ever going to stop? You're both grown men, so indecisive!"
