The man who was beaten curled up in pain and didn't even have the strength to scream in pain.
The other two saw that Zhou Haidong was so ruthless, and their moans gradually weakened. There was a trace of fear in their eyes.
Although he was ruthless, it didn't mean that he didn't care about his life.
They were paid to eliminate disasters, but no matter how much money they had, it was not as valuable as their lives. They didn't dare to bet whether Li Dong would kill them or not.
Nowadays, rich people were ruthless. It was not uncommon for them to kill a few people and then find someone else to take the blame.
The two looked at each other. Before Li Dong could ask again, one of the men with a crew cut shouted, "I'll talk!"
As soon as he shouted, the man with the crew cut gasped in pain. The ribs that were broken by Cao Hongbing before were hurting again, and he almost cried.
Seeing Li Dong staring at him coldly, the man with the crew cut endured the pain and said, "We are with Brother Fei. This time, Brother Fei asked us to watch you."
"Tell me clearly, who is Brother Fei?" Li Dong frowned.
"Wang Fei, the owner of Feiyang Bar. We usually watch over his bar …"
The man with the buzz cut told Li Dong about their origins, and then explained their purpose under Li Dong's questioning.
They didn't have the guts to kill, but they wanted to invite Li Dong back for a chat.
This was Wang Fei's original words, and Li Dong sneered.
Chat? He didn't even know who Wang Fei was. What was there to talk about?
To put it bluntly, this was a kidnapping!
However, Li Dong still felt that it was not so simple. He was a bar owner, not a real outlaw. How could he do something as stupid as kidnapping me?
After thinking for a moment, Li Dong asked, "Do you know Zhang Qing?"
The two looked confused and shook their heads at the same time.
Li Dong frowned. Could it be that it wasn't Zhang Qing? Or were these small fries not at that level?
Since he knew that someone was following him, the first person Li Dong suspected was Zhang Qing.
After all, during this period of time, he had not offended anyone except Zhang Qing.
After some thought, Li Dong asked again, "Do you know Niu Meng?"
The two nodded quickly. The man with the buzz cut said cautiously, "Boss Niu often comes to our bar. Brother Fei … Wang Fei has a good relationship with him."
Li Dong was relieved. He had guessed that it was Zhang Qing's people who did it.
Although he hadn't verified it yet, Li Dong felt that there was no need to verify it. It was most likely true.
After asking these questions, these guys were useless.
Li Dong pondered for a moment, then took out his phone and called Wu Jianguo.
After picking up the call, Li Dong briefly explained what had happened. He did not mention Wang Fei and Niu Meng. He only said that someone wanted to kidnap him but was caught by his bodyguard. He asked Wu Jianguo to bring some people over to deal with it.
Wu Jianguo heard that Li Dong was in the Southern Suburbs, and his tone was a little awkward. It was troublesome to cross borders to enforce the law.
Li Dong thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll bring some people back to Yaohai. But those people are injured. Should we send them to the hospital?"
Wu Jianguo said indifferently, "As long as they won't die for a while. Bring them directly to the police station."
After hanging up the phone, Li Dong said to Zhou Haidong, "Bring them to the Yaohai Branch."
Zhou Haidong called out to Cao Hongbing. The two of them dragged the three of them to the van outside the warehouse as if they were carrying chickens.
Then Li Dong asked them to take the machetes and daggers. They got in the van and drove to the Yaohai Branch.
…
Yaohai Branch.
In Wu Jianguo's office, Li Dong repeated the matter, this time in more detail.
He even said that he suspected Niu Meng, but he did not mention Zhang Qing.
Niu Meng's father was just an ordinary deputy mayor who had not entered the Standing Committee. His influence could not reach the Yaohai District.
If Niu Meng was mentioned, Wu Jianguo would definitely have some concerns, but not too much.
But if it involved Zhang Qing, Zhang Qing's father was the deputy mayor. Wu Jianguo would definitely not dare to offend him.
As expected, when Li Dong finished speaking, Wu Jianguo began to frown.
After pacing around the office a few times, Wu Jianguo shook his head and sighed, "You were too reckless this time!"
Li Dong understood what he meant. This time, he directly arrested them and even brought them to the Southern Suburbs for questioning. It was indeed a bit reckless.
However, Li Dong did not regret it. If he did not find out who was causing trouble for him, he would not be able to eat or sleep well.
Although Wu Jianguo sighed, Li Dong was his rich man, so he would not ignore him. He thought for a moment and said, "It's fine if we investigate this matter to those guys just now. You don't have to cause any more trouble."
Li Dong raised his eyebrows and asked, "Even Wang Fei can't arrest them?"
It was only Niu Meng's guess. Furthermore, Niu Meng's father was the deputy mayor, so it was certain that he couldn't arrest them. Thus, Li Dong did not expect Wu Jianguo to do anything.
However, even Wang Fei, who was the one who ordered him, couldn't arrest them, which made Li Dong feel somewhat indignant.
Shaking his head, Wu Jianguo replied, "What I meant was to minimize this matter. Wang Fei has a deep foundation in the Viewing District, so it's not appropriate for me to interfere. Furthermore, you're also too deeply involved in this matter. If this matter blows up, I'm afraid that you'll be dragged into it as well. "
One must know that Wang Fei's underlings had yet to make a move, and not only did Li Dong arrest them, he was even suspected of illegal detention and malicious assault.
It was fine if he did not pursue this matter, and Wang Fei and Niu Meng would not cause a ruckus because they would be in trouble if this matter blew up.
However, Wang Fei and Niu Meng would definitely not sit still and wait for their deaths if Li Dong refused to let them go. It would be easy for those underlings to retract their statements, and they might even bite back at Li Dong.
Wu Jianguo understood these things very well, so he knew that this matter would probably be left unsettled after listening to Li Dong's words.
Li Dong furrowed his brows. Were they going to let this matter go just like that?
What was the point of taking care of those underlings? Niu Meng, Zhang Qing, and the rest wouldn't care at all, and this matter wouldn't affect them at all.
However, even though he was indignant, Li Dong knew that Wu Jianguo was right.
The only evidence in this matter was the statements of those underlings, and there was nothing else. It was too difficult to arrest Wang Fei and Niu Meng.
Furthermore, Wu Jianguo wasn't willing to do anything, so Li Dong really couldn't do anything to them.
After thinking about it, Li Dong nodded with a sullen face and didn't say anything else.
Seeing that Li Dong had expressed his stance, Wu Jianguo heaved a sigh of relief. Li Dong was a rich man, and he had to serve him well.
However, Niu Meng's side wasn't easy to deal with either. Although Niu Meng's father couldn't control him, he still had connections as a government official.
If it really went to the end, he might not be able to handle it as a branch bureau chief.
Now that Li Dong wasn't going to pursue the matter, it was easier for him to deal with those underlings. No one could say anything bad about it.
As long as Niu Meng's father wasn't stupid, he wouldn't stand up for these people who he had no connections with.
…
After leaving the police station, Li Dong let out a long breath.
Although he had caught them this time, he didn't gain any advantage. Instead, he felt that he had suffered a loss.
Not to mention that he had been worried for an entire day, Cao Hongbing was even injured, but Niu Meng and Zhang Qing were fine, and they couldn't even deal with a bar owner. This was too frustrating!
Thinking about this, Li Dong was even more eager to find a powerful backer.
If he had a backer, Zhang Qing, Niu Meng, and the rest wouldn't bully him over and over again.
