Chapter 386 The ruthless bandit is involved in an old case
Qi Tongwei braked suddenly, and the seatbelt squeezed his breasts so hard they felt a sharp pain, but thankfully it wasn't too bad.
Holding an automatic rifle in one hand and casually pushing open the car door with the other, he was about to light a cigarette to show off when he suddenly realized that he was a police officer. This wasn't a Hong Kong movie, so Chow Yun-fat shouldn't try to imitate that.
The thug's car overturned, Ah Dong was dead, and the dying thug Gao Jun was dragged out by Qi Tongwei. He pulled off the black hood, and lo and behold, there was an unexpected discovery. This man was the same thug who robbed the Guangdong Bank in Tianhe City 7 years ago, and was also the suspect in the murder of Lan Ying's father, Lan Weiguo.
Qi Tongwei patted Gao Jun, a ruthless bandit whose face was covered in blood, and said, "Wake up, wake up, still sleeping? We're here to take you all."
Gao Jun groggily opened his eyes and saw Qi Tongwei's face up close. He felt like he could eat him alive, but unfortunately, he was powerless to do so.
Waaaaaah!
A police siren sounded, and Criminal Investigation Captain Zhang Zheng led the police to the scene. The police were terrified by what they saw. As long as Qi Tongwei made a move, the criminals would most likely be either killed or injured. His motto was to kill without mercy.
"Tongwei, are you alright?"
Qi Tongwei stood up and laughed, "Captain Zhang, you're a step too late. I've already stolen the credit."
Zhao Donglai immediately gave a thumbs up, saying it was better to address him by his title when there were outsiders present, "Director Qi is impressive."
Qi Tongwei stomped on Gao Jun's face, "Captain Zhang, take a look, isn't this Gao Jun, the notorious bandit who has committed crimes in multiple provinces?"
Zhang Zheng was overjoyed and immediately squatted down to check. Defeating Gao Jun's robbery gang was a service to the people.
"Very similar, indeed very similar. Judging from the method of robbing the bank, it should be Gao Jun."
The police officers present were also shocked. They had heard about Gao Jun's gang committing crimes for many years and had witnessed their downfall firsthand. They could brag about it to others now.
Soon after, Gao Jun was taken to the hospital by ambulance for emergency treatment. Qi Tongwei was called to the Municipal Bureau by He Aijun for praise. This kid solved such a big case for him as soon as he arrived, and he was able to benefit from it again.
"You're really something, fighting off a ruthless thug with your bare hands. Even movies wouldn't dare to depict something like that."
Qi Tongwei sat down and took a sip of the water that He Aijun had personally poured for him. "Director He, I am now a people's police officer. Preventing crime is my inescapable responsibility."
"You're so modest, I hardly recognize you anymore. Stop pretending in front of me."
Oh no, oh no, that arrogant and confrontational persona from the beginning is killing me! Now that I'm Director Qi, I need to tone it down a bit, be more humble, and of course, serving the people requires being more amiable.
"Director He, please don't make fun of me. I do have a request."
He Aijun jokingly said, "Don't bother asking, just make a request."
"Fine, the boss wants me to play myself," Qi Tongwei said, not bothering to hold back. "Director He, I damaged a taxi. The city bureau has to reimburse me for the damages, so I'll pay for it first. I can't let it affect the taxi driver's livelihood."
Mentioning money, He Aijun frowned, took a tactical sip of tea, and said, "You did a good job, kid. You understand how difficult life is for ordinary people. Tell the taxi driver to keep the repair invoice safe. Bring it to me later, and I'll handle it for you."
Qi Tongwei suddenly felt like he'd thrown a meat bun to a dog. "Director He, capturing the notorious bandit Gao Jun is a great achievement for me. Can't you make an exception for me?"
He Aijun put down his teacup, smiling warmly and amiably, "If you're short of money, I can lend you three or five hundred, but that's all."
Wow, are all leaders this stingy? They can't even afford a plane ticket from Jingzhou to Tianhe for three or five hundred yuan.
"Director He, I think I understand now. This money will probably be waiting forever."
"Hey kid, you're not short of money, why are you in such a hurry?"
Forget it, forget it. He damaged the car himself, so Qi Tongwei decided not to dwell on it. He'd just consider it a way of paying for his own service to the people.
"Director He, let's put the money aside for now. I have another request. The notorious gangster Gao Jun is suspected of murdering a policeman in eastern Guangdong. Could you let me participate in the interrogation?"
As long as money wasn't mentioned, everything was easy to discuss, and He Aijun had no reason to refuse. "Alright, I'll grant you special permission to participate in this case."
"Thank you, Director He."
After leaving, Qi Tongwei quickly made a phone call to Ye Xingguo.
"Director Ye, Gao Jun, the notorious bandit who robbed the Guangdong Bank seven years ago, has been caught in Jingzhou."
Ye Xingguo was somewhat incredulous, "You mean you captured the notorious bandit Gao Jun?"
"Yes, Director Ye, I happened to run into Gao Jun robbing me while I was depositing money at the bank, so I intervened slightly."
Ye Xingguo laughed heartily, "You're really blowing your own horn. I'll give you three more days off. You absolutely must find out whether Gao Jun actually murdered Detective Captain Lan Weiguo back then."
"Yes, Director Ye, mission accomplished."
Suddenly, Qi Tongwei had an idea. Guangdong was richer than Handong. Why not go back and ask Ye Xingguo to reimburse the taxi fare? He was such a genius.
After emergency treatment, the notorious bandit Gao Jun was saved, but his injuries were severe and he was still in critical condition. The other bandit, A Guang, had his left leg amputated. The shotgun was too lethal, so the doctors could only try to save his life first.
Qi Tongwei's attack resulted in three deaths and two serious injuries. When the leaders of Handong heard about it, they all shook their heads. This kid was too bloodthirsty, and just thinking about it made them wary.
The Provincial Party Committee compound.
Ji Changming was flattering his old leader Chen Yanshi again. The two of them chatted and laughed as they weeded the vegetables and radishes in the yard. Chen Yanshi used this large vegetable garden to recall those glorious years and remind himself never to forget the millions of ordinary people who suffered hardship.
"Xiao Ji, I heard that kid solved a major bank robbery case as soon as he got back. He's got real talent!"
Ji Changming knew that Chen Yanshi had some issues with Qi Tongwei. "Old leader, that kid took leave to come back and visit his parents. He said that while depositing money, he accidentally stumbled upon the ruthless bandit Gao Jun robbing a bank. He single-handedly took on the robber; he's quite bold."
Chen Yanshi straightened up; his back ached from bending over for a while as he got older. "Catching Gao Jun's gang, who had been committing crimes in multiple provinces for years, is indeed a great achievement. However, their methods were a bit too extreme. Racing with ruthless criminals in the street could easily have caused accidental injuries or deaths among civilians. We should be cautious about individual heroism."
"Old boss, you're right. That kid is still too young and impulsive. Luckily, he was lucky this time."
Ji Changming had no choice but to agree. He would never do anything that would offend his superiors, and that was the secret to his rapid rise through the ranks.
Chen Yanshi then launched into his leader's earnest admonition, "Xiao Ji, you must never rely on luck when doing things. We are public servants who serve the people, and every citizen's life is precious and cannot withstand any accident."
Ji Changming could tell that Chen Yanshi was indirectly blaming Qi Tongwei, because ultimately it was because that kid had been too arrogant and offended too many people.
Even the most selfless person has personal preferences. If they like someone, a mistake is a minor matter; if they dislike someone, a mistake is a huge deal.
