You went on a blind date and presented an A-level wanted criminal as a meeting gift?
Chapter 12 Detention Center Overcrowded! Deputy Captain Li, does your face hurt?
Outside the Jin Di Bath Center, the sharp sound of police sirens tore through the decadent night of Jiangcheng, growing louder and more piercing as it approached.
Several black SWAT vehicles, accompanied by the screeching sound of tires, drifted and precisely blocked the entrance.
The red and blue flashing lights of the police cars illuminated the astonished faces of the onlookers, their lights flickering in and out.
The car door slammed open, and the burly, menacing-looking SWAT captain led his fully armed team into the lobby.
"Don't move! Cover your head and squat down!"
The roar was deafening, filled with murderous intent.
Then, he froze.
The anticipated scenes of armed standoffs, fierce fighting, and even gun battles did not materialize at all.
The magnificent hall was packed with people squatting with their heads in their hands.
From the "elites" in suits to the "employees" in technician uniforms, they all looked dejected and as obedient as children being punished in kindergarten.
In the center of this mess and frustration, the instigator, who had been urgently reported by the dispatch center as having "stirred up a hornet's nest," was leisurely sitting on a velvet sofa.
Lin Chen held a bottle of chilled cola covered in water droplets, tilting his head back and gulping it down with great relish.
The SWAT captain abruptly stopped his tactical steps, his tactical boots screeching on the floor.
His teammates behind him, also holding guns, looked at each other, unsure of where to point their weapons.
Old Wang stood next to Lin Chen like a puppet, holding a crumpled piece of paper in his hand.
That was the list of criminals he had just hastily jotted down with trembling hands, based on Lin Chen's roll call.
At this moment, Old Wang's eyes were vacant and his expression was blank, as if the shock just now had taken away two or six of his souls.
The SWAT team leader strode forward and patted Old Wang on the shoulder.
"Old Wang? What's going on? Where's the suspect?"
Old Wang seemed to be electrocuted, his whole body jolted, and he stammered as he pointed to the people squatting all over the ground.
"They're all...all here..."
The captain frowned.
"I'm asking about a suspect! A wanted criminal! A drug dealer!"
"It's...it's them..."
Old Wang handed over the list in his hand, his movements so stiff it was as if he were handing over a will.
The SWAT captain took the list with a puzzled look and glanced at it under the glow of the crystal chandelier in the lobby.
The next second, his sharp, hawk-like eyes widened suddenly.
Zhang Kui, a Class A wanted criminal, known as the "Rainy Night Butcher"...
[Sun Li, drug dealer, 500 grams...]
Zhao Wu, a key member of the North Korean fraud ring...
Wang Mazi, a rapist on the run...
……
The list was short and the handwriting was messy, but every name and every crime on it was like a heavy hammer blow to his head.
Drug trafficking, murder, fraud, rape...
This is not a crackdown on prostitution!
This is clearly a case of taking down all twenty of the most wanted people on Jiangcheng's wanted list!
The captain's breathing instantly became heavy, and his chest heaved violently.
He suddenly looked up and stared intently at the young man who was still drinking cola, as if he were looking at a monster.
Lin Chen noticed his gaze, put down the Coke bottle, and let out a loud burp.
He smiled warmly at the captain and even raised the bottle in his hand as a greeting.
The extradition operation commenced immediately.
Then, a new problem arose.
There aren't nearly enough police cars!
Several riot police vehicles were packed to the brim, with people crowding even the aisles, and the trunks were almost full of people.
However, most of the suspects who were squatting with their heads in their hands in the lobby had not moved.
"Captain, there's no more room!"
"This...this is too much."
The team members came to complain.
The SWAT captain looked at the spectacular scene, his temples throbbing. Finally, he gritted his teeth and squeezed out a sentence.
"Call the bus company! Urgently request a bus to come over!"
Half an hour later.
A No. 66 bus slowly pulled up in front of the Jin Di Bath Center amidst countless flashes of light and the gaze of onlookers.
A group of normally ruthless criminals were now lined up and escorted one by one onto a bus by heavily armed special police officers.
The scene was both comical and shocking.
If you didn't know better, you'd think it was a company organizing a team-building trip.
……
Late at night, the city's criminal investigation team was brightly lit.
When that oddly styled bus slowly drove into the compound with sirens blaring.
All the police officers who were still working overtime thought they were hallucinating, so they all dropped what they were doing and ran out of the office to see what was going on.
"laugh--"
The air brakes screech, and the car door opened.
The suspects were escorted off the vehicle one by one, and with their hands behind their heads, they squatted in a row in the open space in the center of the yard.
One, two, ten, twenty...
Soon, a dark mass of people filled the entire courtyard.
The entire criminal investigation team instantly transformed into a bustling marketplace, filled with noise, shouts, and calls from walkie-talkies.
"The detention cells are full! Section A is full!"
"Even Section B is overflowing! People are practically piled up on top of each other!"
"Quick! Contact the West Branch of the Public Security Bureau next door and ask if they have any vacancies! We need to borrow a cell!"
In the duty room, the police officer in charge of guarding the area gripped the telephone receiver and let out a desperate cry.
"Stop sending them! There's really no room left! If you send any more, I'll just have to let them squat on my head!"
The entire municipal bureau was in an uproar because of this unprecedented mass arrest.
At that moment, Li Mingyu had just finished processing the last document he had on hand.
He stretched, picked up his teacup, took a leisurely sip, and a cold smile curled at the corner of his mouth.
Judging by the time, Lin Chen's "routine inspection" should be over by now.
He could already picture the arrogant young auxiliary police officer returning dejectedly to write his report after being humiliated in that kind of den of iniquity.
He wanted to show Lin Chen that the police force was not a place he could mess around in.
The kind of work that cracks down on prostitution wears down his arrogant and self-important spirit.
Li Mingyu stood up in a good mood, picked up his teacup, and strolled out of the office, ready to greet the "good news" at the door and see Lin Chen make a fool of himself.
One step, two steps...
As he reached the entrance to the hall, his steps suddenly froze.
The sight before him caused his mind to go blank for a moment.
The courtyard was packed with a sea of people; the scene was even more exaggerated than a police mobilization meeting.
The air was thick with a tense and ominous atmosphere.
His dazed gaze fell upon several familiar faces that had been on the internal wanted list for years!
"What...what's going on?!"
Li Mingyu's voice trembled as he grabbed a young police officer who was running and panting heavily.
When the police officer saw it was Li Mingyu, he was breathless and his face flushed with excitement as he reported to his superior:
"Captain Li! Old Wang from the Public Security Bureau... no, it's our new auxiliary police officer Lin Chen. He raided the Jin Di Prostitution Ring and busted a thief's den! He even caught an A-level wanted criminal!"
Lin Chen?
Crackdown on prostitution?
Did they raid the thieves' den?
Li Mingyu felt as if his brain was filled with cement. He could understand each word individually, but when put together, he couldn't comprehend them at all.
The enamel cup slipped from his fingers.
With a "crack," it fell to the ground and shattered into pieces.
The scalding hot tea splashed all over his trouser leg, but he was completely unaware of it.
Just then, the crowd automatically parted to make way.
The figure that he hated so much walked out unhurriedly.
Lin Chen was still holding the half-empty bottle of cola in his hand. He dusted off non-existent dust from his body and walked straight up to Li Mingyu, who was dumbfounded.
He glanced at the mess on the ground, then at Li Mingyu's face, which had turned from white to red, then from red to green, and spoke softly.
The sound wasn't loud, but it clearly reached the ears of every officer who was listening intently.
"Deputy Captain Li, what do you think..."
Lin Chen paused, a playful smile curving his lips.
"Is cracking down on prostitution considered a technically demanding job?"
Li Mingyu's lips trembled violently, but he couldn't utter a single word.
He felt as if an invisible hand had slapped his cheeks repeatedly, more than a dozen times.
It hurts like fire!
