"Furthermore, given his current physical condition and the severity of his injuries, he is extremely weak and cannot withstand surgery. Even if a liver donor is found, there is little hope..."

Listening to the doctor's words, Wang Gang, who had been sitting there struggling for a long time, gritted his teeth and suddenly said, "Doctor, is there really no hope? If a liver transplant can cure him, I am his son, I... I am willing to donate."

Amidst the surprised gazes of the others, Wang Gang said with a determined look, "I'm willing to give it a try. I've heard that the liver has a strong regenerative ability; even if 50% or 60% is removed, it can grow back. I'm still young, so it won't be a problem."

The doctor looked at him with surprise, thought for a moment, and then shook his head: "His current physical condition is too weak to withstand a major surgery like a liver transplant."

He hesitated for a moment before adding, "I'll discuss this with the experts at the hospital later to see if there's any hope. But you family members need to be prepared."

After saying that, he turned around and left.

……

Time flies, and a week passed in the blink of an eye. Wang Jianguo ultimately succumbed to liver failure and died.

Although the primary cause of death was liver failure, the injuries sustained on the body were also a contributing factor. The fact that the beating resulted in death further aggravated the charges against the Sun family.

The second daughter of the Sun family approached Wang Gang, offering a large sum of compensation and trying to get him to sign a settlement agreement. However, Wang Gang hesitated for a long time and ultimately did not sign.

According to him, he and Wang Jianguo have severed their father-son relationship, and he neither wants to sign nor can he sign.

Ultimately, Sun Jia'an's daughter approached Wang Gang's mother and persuaded her. After some hesitation, Wang's mother was convinced and signed the settlement agreement. Amid Wang Gang's confusion and opposition, the compensation money was used to buy a house for his only grandson.

According to Wang's mother, Wang Jianguo had wronged his family his whole life. Being able to use the compensation to buy a house for his grandson was a way for him, as a grandfather, to make up for his past neglect of the family.

Chapter 371 A near miss

After the matter between the Wang and Sun families ended, some time passed.

That morning, Xia Jie said to Cheng Hao, "Master, the child of the prostitution suspect has been sent to the welfare home by community workers. They want us to ask if the child has any other family members."

Cheng Hao said, "Okay, I'll ask my colleagues at the bureau."

Xia Jie said happily, "Okay, thank you, Master."

Cheng Hao glanced at her: "Xia Jie, did the community workers tell you to ask this?"

Xia Jie hesitated for a moment: "It was my idea... If he has other relatives, it's always better for him to grow up with them."

Cheng Hao said solemnly, "Xia Jie, as someone who's been there, I have to remind you, when you're a police officer, don't let too much personal emotion get in the way."

Xia Jie nodded hesitantly: "Yes, I understand, Master."

Li Mu happened to pass by and chimed in, "Xia Jie, Chief Cheng is saying this for your own good. However, your sense of responsibility is commendable and rare, which shows that you are a responsible and good police officer."

Xia Jie smiled and said, "Thank you, Director Li!"

After chatting for a few minutes, Cheng Hao received a notice from the bureau to attend a meeting. More than half an hour later, Zhang Zhijie walked over looking energetic.

Just then, Li Dawei brewed a cup of goji berry tea and handed it to Chen Xincheng: "Master, have some tea!"

Chen Xincheng glanced at him without saying a word, but couldn't hide the smile on his face. As they spent more time together, he gradually came to accept this apprentice.

Zhang Zhijie happened to be passing by and saw Li Dawei fawning over Chen Xincheng. He laughed and said, "Old Chen, not bad! You've trained your apprentice well. Since you've trained him so well, can I borrow your beloved apprentice today?"

Chen Xincheng gave Li Dawei a haughty look: "My beloved disciple? What beloved disciple? Don't scare me. If you want to use him, take him away quickly and use him however you like."

Zhang Zhijie laughed: "Then it's settled."

Li Dawei looked at Chen Xincheng with a wronged expression: "Master, I'm so hurt by what you said. You lend your apprentice to someone else, but aren't you afraid of sending me on some dangerous mission?"

Chen Xincheng glared at him: "You think you can carry out dangerous missions? You're not qualified to carry out dangerous missions yet?"

Li Dawei was speechless.

Zhang Zhijie laughed heartily: "Dawei, you don't actually believe me, do you?"

Li Dawei said, "Brother Zhang, I'm really taking this seriously. You have to let me carry out the mission later, or I'll try to extort you."

Zhang Zhijie laughed and said, "Okay, you'll definitely be there later."

After watching Zhang Zhijie walk away, Li Dawei asked curiously, "Master, what is he doing? Is there some kind of operation going on at the station?"

Chen Xincheng narrowed his eyes: "It should be. Zhijie has definitely set his sights on a big fish."

Li Dawei was somewhat excited: "It must be a big case!"

Chen Xincheng asked, "How did you know?"

Li Dawei said, "Officer Zhang handled the small case himself. I just saw him go to the station leader's place. The case must be quite big, and they don't have enough manpower, so they need to report to the station leader."

Chen Xincheng pointed at him: "You, you always think you're so clever, do you really think you're making a heroic epic?"

Li Dawei was completely confused: "What do you mean? Can you explain it to me?"

Chen Xincheng said, "There is a tradition in the station that when a case is encountered, whether it is the police officer in charge or the team leader, they will consult with the deputy director to check the case and prevent any oversights or uncertainties."

Li Dawei suddenly realized and said, "Oh! In case something happens, there's a tall guy to take the blame, right?"

Chen Xincheng glared at him.

Li Dawei quickly shut his mouth, then smiled after a moment and said, "Master, would veteran police officers like you and Officer Cao also consult with the station leadership?"

Chen Xincheng countered, "Why not? This is called a unified effort across the entire station. No matter how big or small the case, it could be a matter of life and death, so we must be extremely cautious and ensure that the allocation of police resources is foolproof. You should do the same in the future, don't be so carefree and ignorant all the time."

Li Dawei said, "I've remembered it, Master. Your disciple will keep your teachings in mind."

At this point, Li Dawei's eyes darted around: "Master, you mean... Officer Zhang just told me that I've also been reassigned?"

Chen Xincheng glared at him: "Stop aiming so high all the time. What business is it of yours? Do you really think you're useful?"

Li Dawei was a little confused: "So he said he wanted to lend it to me?"

Chen Xincheng said dismissively, "He's just showing off!"

Li Dawei was even more bewildered: "Show off? Show off what?"

Chen Xincheng was exasperated: "Are you pretending to be smart or are you really stupid? Didn't you just say that he must have caught a big fish? Community police officers only catch a big fish once a year, they should be showing off!"

Li Dawei looked bewildered: "Oh... I see!" He still didn't quite understand.

……

Today, Director Wang Shouyi and Deputy Director Chen Hao went to the bureau to attend a meeting, while Deputy Director Gao Chao is cooperating with the district criminal police team to investigate a case.

The only leaders in the institute were the instructor and Li Mu, the deputy director.

The instructor is in charge of internal affairs and household registration, while Li Mu is responsible for police intelligence and field operations.

Zhang Zhijie came to Li Mu's office: "Chief Li, I have a case to report to you."

Li Mu looked up and stood up: "Old Zhang, don't be so polite, sit down... sit down and let's talk."

Zhang Zhijie said, "Chief Li, recently, during my visits to our jurisdiction, I discovered that a small underground casino was hidden inside a residential building."

Li Mu asked solemnly, "Really?"

Zhang Zhijie said, "It's true! This small casino has been around for a while, and I've been keeping an eye on it to figure it out. I only recently found some clues."

"Coincidentally, they gathered another group of people today and started operating."

"I think this is a rare opportunity, and we should dispatch the police immediately to try to catch them all in one fell swoop."

Li Mu was silent for a few seconds, then slammed his hand on the table and stood up, saying, "Alright, let's not delay, let's act immediately."

"Get ready and immediately notify the senior staff members in the station to come to the conference room for a meeting to discuss and plan the arrest operation."

Zhang Zhijie stood up and said, "Okay, Director Li, I'll go and inform them right away."

Half an hour later, after discussing the specific steps and details of the operation, a group of more than ten police officers and more than twenty auxiliary police officers, under the command of Li Mu, boarded five or six police cars and two buses and headed to their destination.

……

The group arrived at the location and discreetly parked the car on the side of the road. Zhang Zhijie picked up the walkie-talkie and said, "Chief Li, Chief Li... we're here."

Li Mu replied, "Okay, stay put. Group Four, Group Four, where are you?"

Group Four responded: "Group Four will arrive at the designated location in three minutes."

Li Mu continued, "Group Three, Group Three, where are you?"

The three teams responded: "The three teams will arrive at the designated location in one minute."

Li Mu asked, "Second Group, Second Group, where are you?"

Group Two replied, "Group Two has arrived at the designated location. Please provide further instructions."

Li Mu said, "Alright, stay put and await orders."

A moment later, voices came through the walkie-talkie: "Group three in position...Group four in position!"

Li Mu immediately gave the order: "Alright, each group, proceed according to the original plan. When you see someone leading me to the door, everyone rush in!"

"Received! Received..."

Listening to the voice coming from the walkie-talkie, Li Mu led seven or eight policemen, guided by an informant, to the outside of the house where the gambling was taking place.

"action!"

At Li Mu's command, all the police officers rushed forward and broke down the door: "Don't move! Police! Everyone, put your hands on your heads and squat down!"

The room was filled with smoke and there were seven or eight tables, each surrounded by a number of people. When they saw the police arrive, they were terrified, and many of them immediately squatted down with their heads in their hands in panic.

Among these people was an old man, huddled in the corner of the bathroom, his back to everyone.

Li Dawei had just brought a gambler to the vicinity when he suddenly felt that the figure looked familiar. After taking a few more steps, he felt increasingly uneasy. He handed the gambler over to an auxiliary police officer and went over again.
