Chapter 76 Dogs Fighting, One Howl

"The Political Department is showing off, huh?"

Jin Dazui and the others glared angrily at the arrogant political department agent in front of them.

"Sorry, our Political Department is just that big!"

Lu Ming glanced at the detective's badge: Zhou Wenjian, SB Detective, Sergeant.

Damn, you're a sheriff and you're so arrogant!

He raised an eyebrow, curled his lip, and said, "An idiot is an idiot, truly impressive."

Special Branch, abbreviated as SB, is the English name for the Special Branch. Special Branch agents refer to themselves as SB when they need to identify themselves.

In this era, when ordinary civilians or police officers encounter political agents who have identified themselves, their first reaction is to avoid them to prevent unnecessary trouble.

"Sorry, that's just how we idiots are."

Zhou Wenjian was arrogant and conceited, a confidence instilled in him by the SB agents.

Lu Ming looked at Zhou Wenjian, who was beaming with pride, with a strange expression. This guy is such a big idiot.

"When did the demolition team arrive? Have them investigate the scene immediately."

Zhou Wenjian took over the reins and immediately issued the order: "At the same time, gather all the people who were at the scene at the time. I want to question them about this case."

Wang Wang!

The large wolfhound that Li Jie was leading seemed to sense Zhou Wenjian's hostility and barked incessantly at him.

"Wangcai, be quiet!"

Li Jie glanced at Zhou Wenjian and the other political officers, and emphasized again, "Sir, I have already checked the scene, and there are no other explosives."

"Who are you?"

Zhou Wenjian frowned and looked at Li Jie.

"I am Longwei's bodyguard."

Zhou Wenjian snorted coldly, "How can an inspection by a bodyguard like you count?"

"I have a professional background, and the big wolfhound I'm walking is a special breed of dog that I've trained as a military dog. It's extremely sensitive to the smell of gunpowder, and it can quickly find explosives as long as they're within its olfactory range."

Li Jie said seriously, "I just patrolled the entire scene with the big wolfhound, and we found nothing else. Moreover, I was at the scene when the bombing happened, and I can confirm that the perpetrators only planted one landmine."

"A professional?"

Zhou Wenjian narrowed his eyes slightly and carefully examined Li Jie. Seeing that Li Jie's temperament was very different from that of ordinary people, a sense of suspicion arose in his heart.

Lu Ming shook his head inwardly. The Political Department was originally an intelligence agency established by MI5 on Hong Kong Island, specifically to investigate spies and intelligence personnel active on Hong Kong Island.

Li Jie's identity as someone from mainland China is already very sensitive. Being targeted by the Political Department will only bring him more trouble. Once something is dug up, he'll be in big trouble.

Zhou Wenjian withdrew his scrutinizing gaze. Now was not the time to worry about that. Their political department's primary objective was to uncover the terrorists. "Where is Long Wei? We need to question him as usual."

Wang Wang!

The large wolfhound barked at Zhou Wenjian. Li Jie tightened the rope to quiet the wolfhound down. He then said to Zhou Wenjian and the others, "Big Brother was frightened by the bombing and is resting in the lounge. If you have any questions, sir, you can go to the lounge."

"Lead the way."

Zhou Wenjian glanced at the large wolfhound with disgust and impatiently told Li Jie to lead the way.

During this period, their political department has been actively investigating the whereabouts of the group of international terrorists who infiltrated Hong Kong Island. Their superiors have given them orders to deal with the terrorists before things escalate, or else their political department will be in deep trouble.

With their future at stake, these political operatives dared not overlook even the slightest clue about terrorists.

Upon receiving intelligence that a massive explosion had occurred on the set of martial arts superstar Lung Wai, potentially involving terrorists, they immediately rushed over and forcefully snatched the case from the Central Police Station.

At this point, they no longer cared about the attitude of the Central Police Station.

"Please wait a moment, officers. I'll go in and tell my brother."

Li Jie led everyone to the lounge and casually tied the large wolfhound to the steel railing. The wolfhound barked wildly at Zhou Wenjian and the other political department agents, making Zhou Wenjian very upset.

"Wangcai, stop howling!"

Lu Ming's eyes flickered slightly as he called out to the large wolfhound, then stepped forward and patted its head. The wolfhound indeed quieted down, wagging its tail at Lu Ming, a stark contrast to its attitude towards Zhou Wenjian.

"A beast is a beast; it even knows how to read people's faces!"

Zhou Wenjian grumbled and cursed.

Wang Wang!

Just then, the large wolfhound seemed to hear Zhou Wenjian's insults and immediately began barking wildly again.

Lu Ming shook his head, quickly muttered a few words in a low voice, then got up and walked away, saying sarcastically, "Zhou sir, it seems you're a bit of a hated person."

Chen Jiaju and Jin Dazui immediately understood and chuckled.

"What do you mean I'm universally hated?"

Zhou Wenjian's face darkened. He wasn't stupid; of course he could understand good and bad words. Lu Ming's words clearly meant that he was not only annoying to people, but even dogs hated him.

He admitted that many people disliked him as a political agent, but that's not a reason for you to say it so openly.

Wang Wang!

However, the next moment, the large wolfhound's barking directly proved this point.

Jin Da Zui grinned widely, "Zhou sir, I can tell that Wang Cai really hates you."

"Do I need it to like?"

Zhou Wenjian, his face dark, glared at the barking wolfhound and yelled, "You beast, if you bark again, I'll slaughter you and stew you!"

As he spoke, he cursed and stepped forward, kicking the large wolfhound with his pointed leather shoe. The wolfhound, which was tied up, whimpered and retreated to avoid the attack. Then Zhou Wenjian shouted again.

"Damn it, you beast, do you really think I'm made of clay?"

Enraged, Zhou Wenjian rushed forward, intending to kick the large wolfhound away. Suddenly, the wolfhound dodged to the side, then leaped at Zhou Wenjian, biting his calf and causing him to howl in pain.

"You beast, loosen your grip, loosen your grip!"

Zhou Wenjian screamed and yelled at the other political department agents, "Are you all dead? Come and help me!"

"Oh, oh, oh!"

The political officers snapped out of their daze and rushed over to try to separate Zhou Wenjian from the large wolfhound. However, the wolfhound held on tightly, and in the struggle, Zhou Wenjian screamed in agony.

"Fire! Fire!"

Zhou Wenjian screamed in pain.

Upon hearing this, Lu Ming immediately stepped forward, grabbed the large wolfhound, and shouted, "You two dogs, stop fighting! Stop fighting!" With his command, the large wolfhound finally released its grip, its sharp canines already stained with blood, and arched its back to Zhou Wenjian, baring its teeth.

As soon as Zhou Wenjian was free, he staggered backward away from the large wolfhound, his face slightly pale. "Take me to the hospital quickly." He was very afraid of catching rabies, so he asked the other political officers to take him to the hospital for a vaccination.

"Inspector Zhou, this case—"

The other political officers hesitated slightly, but Zhou Wenjian said with a pained expression, "Have two people drive me to the hospital, and the rest of you stay behind for questioning."

"Yes, sir!"

"This person is so annoying, even dogs don't like him."

Chen Jiaju looked at the busy political department detectives, a hint of dissatisfaction flashing across his face.

"That's how the dogs in the Political Department are," Lu Ming said with a smile.

"It's like dogs fighting, howling all the way!" Jin Dazui chuckled. "This Zhou sir is so arrogant, he deserves to be bitten by a dog."

"Sir, what's going on here?"

When Li Jie led Long Wei and the others out, he was stunned to see the messy lounge and the flustered political department agents.
