Last ti when Wang Hao had gotten Huang Dingfeng and his lackeys into the police station, it was this plump officer who had caught them.
Therefore, the plump officer knew Wang Hao.
"Was it you who called the police?"
The plump officer, holstering his gun, stepped forward and asked.
"Yes, it was , I was just passing by from the orphanage and slled a strong scent of blood, so I broke in through the back door, discovered there was soone dead, and imdiately called the police."
Having taken Wang Hao’s statent before, and knowing sowhat of his character, the plump officer didn’t suspect him.
"Did you touch anything inside after you ca in?"
The plump officer asked seriously, as per procedure.
"No, it was just like this when I entered, I didn’t touch anything inside."
Wang Hao hurriedly responded.
"All right, you go outside and wait for a bit, don’t leave. We’ll need to take your statent after we’ve processed the scene, please cooperate!"
After speaking, the plump officer asked Wang Hao to exit.
Soon more police officers arrived, swiftly cordoning off the entire scene.
A large number of officers went in to collect evidence and gather samples.
Wang Hao watched the bustling activity of the police inside, but he was very worried.
The mobilization of such a significant force by the police indicated that the capability exceeded that of a small county.
Clearly, the professional detectives and forensic experts from the city had also been called in for assistance, showing they were taking this case very seriously.
With such elaborate arrangents at this mont, what if those criminals realized what was happening? If Xiaowei and Jia Jia were truly in their hands, what if they panicked and hard the two children?
After about an hour more, they had completed examining the entire scene and wrapped the body in a body bag, preparing to take it back for further study. Wang Hao was taken to the station as well.
"Officer, aren’t you afraid of startling the snakes with such a big commotion?"
Sitting in a car with the plump officer, Wang Hao couldn’t help but ask.
"We had no choice. We hurried over here as soon as we received the ergency call, and they followed along. They were sent by the higher-ups; we don’t have control over that!"
The plump officer expressed helplessly.
It seed that even the plump officer was under considerable pressure as the commotion caused by these few criminals was substantial, attracting nationwide attention to the case.
The higher-ups had to take it seriously, but this approach seed sowhat perplexing to Wang Hao.
"It’s not just that now. Not only did they send the detective squad, but the ard police squad has also arrived, strutting around with an air of authority!"
The plump officer appeared quite dissatisfied, speaking with a hint of anger.
As soon as Wang Hao got out of the car, he saw the ard police vehicles parked in the front yard of the police station, exuding a commanding presence.
The ard police were huddled around the vehicles, murmuring about sothing. Seeing the plump officer return, one of them ca over.
"Hey, Captain Pang, did you find anything on your outing today?"
The ard police inquired.
"I’ve told you several tis, my surna is Pang, can you stop calling ’fat’ to avoid making a laughing stock?"
The plump officer said sowhat angrily.
"Alright, alright, Captain Pang, have you found anything on your side?"
The ard police asked sowhat helplessly.
"Nothing!"
Glaring at the ard police, the plump officer said with a side-eye.
"Aren’t you guys from above so amazing? Why do you still need us to share clues with you?"
After speaking, Captain Pang gestured for Wang Hao to leave with him, seemingly quite disdainful of the ard police.
"Captain, it looks like we can’t rely on this fatty. Let’s just investigate on our own!"
Another ard police officer ca over and spoke to the one who had been talking with Captain Pang.
"Exactly, they’re just a minor local police force; we can’t associate with them. We’re better off taking action on our own."
Another ard policeman said.
"What do you an by that?"
The chubby officer, upon hearing this, beca livid with rage, turned around, and glared furiously at the two ard policen.
Fearful that their boss’s impulsiveness would provoke a fight with the ard policen, his subordinates all followed closely behind him.
Seeing this, the ard policen also quickly gathered around, ready for a fight at any mont.
Wang Hao couldn’t help but feel puzzled. What sort of deep hatred did this chubby officer have with the people in the ard police force? Why did he always seem to have an aversion to them?
"What are you trying to do?"
Just as both sides were ready to strike at any mont, the Chief walked over and barked an order, imdiately quieting everyone down.
As soon as they saw it was the Chief, both the chubby officer and the ard policen imdiately lowered their heads.
However, since the ard police were not under the county’s jurisdiction, they still looked arrogant; they rely didn’t want to make a big fuss, so they kept silent.
Seeing this, Wang Hao couldn’t help but chuckle, thinking that the Chief had finally deigned to intervene.
"Have you all finished your quarreling? If you haven’t had enough, take off your uniforms and continue outside. Stop embarrassing here! It’s annoying to listen to!"
The Chief shouted without sparing anyone’s feelings.
Seeing that a few mbers of the ard police still looked unconvinced, the Chief glared sharply at them.
"The city bureau has transferred command of your ard police unit to . If you don’t like it, you can roll back to where you ca from. I am tired of your sulking faces."
"Tell your superiors I said you refuse to follow orders and disrupt discipline. Let’s see whether your stubbornness or my word carries more weight!"
The group from the ard police were sowhat stunned by the Chief’s words. The city bureau had only sent them to assist with catching the criminals; they hadn’t said anything about transferring command to the county Chief, had they?
"I declare that you are all free to use whatever thods you are proficient in to catch the criminals, but there is one rule I need to lay down here," the Chief said as he scanned all those present.
"The rule is simple: do not harm civilians, do not harm your colleagues, and do not let even one criminal escape!"
Having laid down the "three no’s," the Chief added one more thing.
"These ’three no’s,’ if any of you violates even one, don’t bla for being harsh on you."
After finishing, the Chief walked straight out of the police station.
Watching the Chief’s commanding presence, his head held high and striding confidently, it was no wonder that just a few words from him had subdued the ard police sent from the city.
After the Chief had left, the city’s ard police still stood there dumbfounded, as if reflecting on what he had just said.
Not harming civilians showed he cared for the people; not harming colleagues showed his empathy for his subordinates; not letting any criminals escape showed his dedication to his duty.
How could they not respect such a charismatic Chief?
Wang Hao silently took note of these words, thinking that once his own company grew strong, he too could use this principle to manage his employees.
"Officer Pang, did you hear that clearly? Your Chief said we can act independently, so from now on, we won’t interfere with one another," the leader of the ard police team said, looking disdainfully at the chubby officer.
"What do you an by that? You’re not suggesting I’ve been backstabbing you, are you? As if I have nothing better to do!"
Upon hearing this, the chubby officer felt a bitter taste in his mouth and retorted.
"I, Pang Qiao, have always been open and aboveboard in my actions. I made my way here solely on my own abilities, unlike so people who rise through the ranks by tripping up others!"
"Watch your words, Pang Qiao!" the leader of the ard police shouted, seeming particularly incensed by the phrase "tripping up others."
As the flas of war were about to be rekindled between the two, Wang Hao stood by watching with glee.
"Co on, Old Pang, let’s keep this about business, don’t drag personal grudges into it," the ard police leader said, annoyed.
"You’ve done it, and now I can’t even speak up?" the chubby officer replied, with no intention of backing down.
Neither man was willing to concede, and as the situation escalated, their subordinates also began to egg them on, and a fierce shouting match seed about to erupt.
Just then, the Chief walked back into the station, still smoking a cigarette...
