Chapter 343 Not Seeking Merit
With a loud shout, Changmao Xiong kicked backward and charged towards Li Jian.
Longhair Xiong knew this well.
Only by capturing Li Jian can he live!
Although Li Jian still had a gun tucked into his waistband, Changmao Xiong was confident that he could subdue the other man before he could draw his gun!
Seven steps away, gun fast!
Within seven steps, it's his home turf!
As his hand drew closer and closer to Li Jian's neck, the long-haired man's lips curled into a smile.
"You filthy cop, when I catch you, I'll make you suffer!"
puff-
Just when Longhair Xiong thought victory was assured, he suddenly felt a pain in his lower back.
It felt as if all the strength in my body had been drained away.
Long-haired Xiong fell to the ground and turned around in disbelief.
But all they saw was Sunny's hands covered in blood, and she was holding a fruit knife.
In contrast, Li Jian did not make a single change from beginning to end.
It was as if he really was just a spectator.
Blood trickled from the corner of the long-haired man's mouth, his face contorted in pain: "Why?!"
Sunny didn't say anything, and stabbed him twice more.
Long-haired Xiong, filled with endless grief and confusion, lay dead in a pool of blood, his eyes wide open.
Li Jian said calmly, "What, you're still holding a knife, are you planning to kill me too?"
Sunny was startled by these words and quickly threw away the fruit knife. He lowered his head and said, "I wouldn't dare!"
For a fleeting moment, Sunny genuinely wanted to kill Li Jian.
But when I think of Li Jian's ghostly speed and his calm and composed demeanor...
Sunny always felt that the other party could crush her without lifting a finger.
After weighing the two options, Sunny decided to throw away the fruit knife.
Li Jian got up and made a call to Fei Sha: "Bring two brothers over; we've caught a murderer."
Sunny knelt dejectedly in the cabin.
Although you won't be punished for committing murder in Hong Kong, you'll still serve your full sentence in jail.
This time it will take at least a decade or more.
Li Jian said, "Why are you looking so sad? It's just jail time, not eating peanuts. As long as you admit your mistakes and cooperate with the prosecution, you'll get a maximum of fifteen years."
"If he behaves well in prison, it's not impossible for his sentence to be reduced to ten years."
ten years?
How many decades are there in life?
Sunny gave a wry smile.
soon.
Fei Sha arrived with two of his men and boarded the ship to take a look.
Fei Sha was shocked: "Isn't this Long-Haired Xiong? I used to deal with him a lot when I was fighting the underworld. I never thought he would die here. It's really..."
Li Jian said, "Take care of the aftermath. This case is yours."
Fei Sha stood at attention and saluted: "Yes, sir!"
With a murder case under his belt, Li Jian no longer needs such minor cases to embellish his resume.
Instead of wasting time, it's better to do a favor and make your subordinates' resumes look better.
Some leaders take all the credit for themselves, while making their subordinates take the blame for everything.
They want all the benefits, but won't do any work.
Li Jian had encountered this type of person before and deeply abhorred them.
It's impossible to expect a horse to run well without feeding it.
There is another reason.
Li Jian is currently on vacation, and he doesn't want to waste this hard-earned holiday.
That's life.
Work is important, but life is more important.
Life requires work, but work is also for a better life.
We must not put the cart before the horse.
After obtaining the location of Sunny's hidden database, Li Jian brought this good news to Mong Kok.
Fang Jing is still recovering.
When Lei Zhigang saw these databases, his old face beamed with a smile like a chrysanthemum.
"Inspector Li is truly resourceful; he obtained the information so quickly. He's a genius!"
"But this sunny..."
Li Jian laughed and said, "Sunny has been arrested by my colleagues on suspicion of intentional homicide, so I'm afraid she can't go back north with you."
"This..." Lei Zhigang hesitated.
The task assigned from above is to obtain both people and supplies.
After all, who knows if Sunny has backed up these things? What if something unexpected happens again?
Li Jian said, "Captain Lei, I have done my best in this matter. You have already obtained the items. I am only doing this because of Captain Lei and Miss Fang."
As for the people, you really can't take them with you."
As soon as Li Jian finished speaking, Fang Jing came out of the inner room.
"You promised to hand Sunny over to us, why are you going back on your word?"
Li Jian glanced at her and asked, "How are you feeling? Are you still in pain?"
Pooh!
Fang Jing's pretty face instantly turned as red as blood, like a boiling boiler.
Lei Zhigang and the others felt as if their ears had been severely injured, and they all looked to the side to distract themselves.
Fang Jing gritted her teeth, wishing she could tear a few pieces of flesh off Li Jian.
"You don't have to worry about it!"
"You promised me you'd hand Sunny over to us, but now you've gone back on your word! You're breaking your promise!"
Fang Jing was overcome with sorrow when she thought about how she had already handed it in but hadn't completed the task.
The little pearls kept falling down.
Upon seeing this situation, Lei Zhigang immediately gave the others a meaningful look.
“Inspector Li, I suddenly realized I haven’t had breakfast yet. Let’s go downstairs for breakfast, and you can talk slowly.”
"We're done talking, let's go downstairs and have breakfast together!"
Li Jian glanced at the wall clock.
It's already past 2 PM, what's the point of eating breakfast?
After Lei Zhigang left, only Li Jian and Fang Jing remained in the room.
Fang Jing was losing a lot of her pearls, but Li Jian didn't say anything to comfort her.
He turned around and lifted Fang Jing up in his arms.
Fang Jing was shocked and pounded on his shoulder with her small hands: "What are you doing?"
Half an hour later.
Fang Jing looked utterly dejected, and stopped dropping the little pearls.
Her voice was a little hoarse as she said, "You bastard, all you do is bully me! I don't want to live anymore!"
Li Jian lit a cigarette and said, "Are you stupid? Didn't you see that Captain Lei agreed? And you're still jumping around in the back."
Fang Jing stopped making a fuss and stared at him with her big, expressive eyes, asking, "When did our captain agree?"
Li Jian exhaled a smoke ring and said, "When your Captain Lei heard me say that Sunny couldn't be taken away, he didn't explicitly state his position, which is tantamount to tacit agreement."
Fang Jing's eyes widened even more. Could it be interpreted that way?
Fang Jing, stroking her chin, said, "But our superiors assigned us the task of obtaining the information and bringing Sunny back. If we fail to complete the mission..."
Li Jian suddenly interjected, "What does failing the mission have to do with you? Who are you?"
"I..." Fang Jing opened her mouth.
He was full of profound truths, but at that moment he couldn't utter a single one.
Li Jian said, "Actually, this business trip of yours was to be carried out in secret. If you do well, the credit will go to Captain Lei. If you don't do well, it doesn't matter, since it can't be made public."
You've spent a long time in the north, don't you know their work style?
Seek only to avoid mistakes, not to achieve merit.
