Chapter 436 On Duty
The mainland police uncovered criminal leads related to the Jin Yongde Group.
To monopolize the flour and ensure his own safety, Chen Changmin murdered Jin Yongde first, then Zhang Chen.
Liu Hao looked at Gao Jianxiang, feeling that it was somewhat unbelievable.
Gao Jianxiang said, "Trust me."
Liu Hao nodded and said, "Of course I believe you. Looking at you, you're even nervous about collecting protection money. How could you have the guts to do something so big?"
Gao Jianxiang handed the accident report to Liu Hao: "Hand me over. I don't want to run away anymore."
Liu Hao took the accident report and tore it to shreds.
"Gao Jianxiang, is this your first day as a cop? Don't you understand the importance of team unity?"
Gao Jianxiang looked at Liu Hao in disbelief. Liu Hao continued, "Do you think you can beat Chen Changmin? If we hand you over, you'll be the only one who dies."
Liu Hao lit a cigarette and took a deep drag.
Gao Jianxiang covered his face, utterly exhausted: "What else can I do?"
Liu Hao took an envelope off the sun visor. "This was just received today. With this money, I'll bring my family and set off for Hong Kong."
Gao Jianxiang tried to take out the money, but Liu Hao held him down firmly.
Gao Jianxiang said, "Are you crazy? How could I leave this mess for you?"
Liu Hao said, "If something really happens, what will happen to Xiaoye? What will happen to Weiwei? I'm all alone now, so just think of it as a vacation. I'll handle Zhang Chen's situation."
Jingle bell—jingle bell—
Just as the two of them were silent, Gao Jianxin's phone suddenly rang.
"It's Chen Changmin." Gao Jianxiang now gets a bit of PTSD whenever he sees Chen Changmin.
Liu Hao said, "Let's hear what he has to say."
Gao Jianxiang answered the phone. The voice on the other end said: "Hello, Officer Gao, good evening. Did you miss me? Please get out of the car now. I need to ask you for a favor. I can't make the decision myself, so I want to discuss it with you. Please get out of the car quickly. You hit and killed someone, so you should at least come down and check on it."
Liu Hao nodded at him.
Gao Jianxiang opened the car door and got out, looking around, but he didn't see a single ghost.
Gao Jianxiang asked into his phone, "Where are you?"
Phone call: I'm right in front of you, just walk ten steps forward.
Gao Jianxiang did as instructed and took ten steps forward.
Chen Changmin: Oh, I remembered wrong, it's twenty steps. You'll see me if you walk another twenty steps.
Gao Jianxiang walked twenty steps and asked, "I'm here. Where are you?"
Chen Changmin said, "Me? I'm behind you."
Gao Jianxiang heard a sharp whistling sound tearing through the air above him, and he turned around abruptly—
A huge heavy truck cab suddenly fell from the sky.
The deafening roar of twisting steel was painful to the ears. Liu Hao's car collapsed instantly, like a soda can crushed by a giant. The windshield shattered into countless fragments with a "bang," scattering in the moonlight.
The ear-piercing sound of the car's metal being squeezed continued until the front of the heavy truck finally crushed the sedan completely into the ground.
After the dull thud of the tire bursting, thick engine oil mixed with an unknown liquid gushed out from under the disc-like wreckage, gleaming eerily in the moonlight.
Gao Jianxiang's flashlight beam trembled as it shone on the pile of scrap metal. A twisted and deformed steering wheel protruded from the gap, with half a seatbelt still hanging on it, swaying gently in the night wind.
Gao Jianxiang found that his legs seemed to be rooted to the spot.
Cold sweat streamed down his back, sticking his shirt firmly to his skin.
Gao Jianxiang was completely stunned. The enormous shock made it impossible for him to accept the fact that his friend had been crushed to death.
Gao Jianxiang gripped his hair tightly, his mouth open, but no sound came out.
On the phone: "Gao Jianxiang, the driver's skills are really good."
Gao Jianxiang yelled into the phone, "Damn it, you step forward! Stop hiding in the back, you bastard!"
Chen Changmin's voice on the phone was sneer: I wasn't hiding. Just hand over Zhang Chen's body and everything will be fine. You always like to complicate simple things.
Gao Jianxiang, with tears streaming down his face, said, "I'm reporting you right now, you'll get your comeuppance!"
On the phone: Oh, no no no, I'm so scared. Impulsiveness won't make you a good policeman, nor will it make you a good father. Listen to the following voice and see who it relates to.
"Excuse me, is this the 6th floor of No. 147 Chaosheng Road?"
The sound of a door opening came from the phone: Yes, who are you?
Gao Jianxiang roared, "Don't touch my family!"
On the phone: I'm your dad's colleague. Is he home?
"Dad is on duty and hasn't come back yet."
Chen Changmin: But it's okay, I brought you a gift.
Lin Xiaoye's voice came from the bedroom: Weiwei, who is it?
Weiwei: She's Dad's colleague.
Chen Changmin said, "Hurry up and prepare the body for me. Don't make a simple thing so complicated, right, Weiwei? May I use your toilet?"
Gao Jianxiang was completely disoriented, and his legs felt weak.
. . . . . .
Inside Gao Jianxiang's residence.
While exercising, Li Jian received another call from Yang Zhen: "Hey, Brother Jian, Gao Jianxiang is driving home."
Upon hearing this, Li Jian calmly replied, "I understand. How much longer until he can go home?"
Yang Zhen said, "It takes at least half an hour to get from Mong Kok to Chau Shing Road."
Li Jian glanced at Lin Xiaoye and couldn't help but speed up.
Half an hour, give it your all.
ding dong -- ding dong --
Just as Li Jian was preparing to finish the fight in half an hour, the doorbell rang.
Li Jian's body stiffened instantly. "Damn it, Lao Yang's information is wrong. He'll be home in just a few minutes."
Lin Xiaoye was quite nervous at first, but she quickly relaxed: "It's not my husband, he has the key."
Li Jian came to his senses.
What man rings the doorbell when he gets home? "But who would knock on the door so late at night?"
Lin Xiaoye pushed Li Jian away and quickly put on her clothes.
With a click, Vivi's voice rang out: "Who are you?"
Lin Xiaoye became even more anxious upon hearing this: "I've told Weiwei so many times not to open the door to strangers, but she just won't listen."
Li Jian poked Lin Xiaoye's lower back: "Let Weiwei ask who the other party is."
Lin Xiaoye craned her neck and called out, "Weiwei, who is that?"
Vivi replied, "He's Dad's colleague."
Upon hearing this, Lin Xiaoye wanted to get out of bed immediately, but before she could sit up straight, Li Jian hugged her from behind: "What's the rush? He's just a colleague."
Lin Xiaoye forcefully pried Li Jian's hand away: "Stop fooling around, we're doomed if we're found out."
Li Jian calmly released his hand and said, "Alright, go and see what's going on outside."
Lin Xiaoye asked, "And what about you?"
