Dong Xuebing hung up Xie Huilan's call and threw the phone back to them.
The Senior Officer looked at Dong Xuebing. "Chief Dong, you had not eaten lunch. Let's go out for lunch first?"
"Let's go." The skinny officer walked over. "I will release your handcuffs."
Dong Xuebing leaned against the wall and asked coldly. "Go? Where are you going? Didn't you all hear what I said? If you all don't give me an explanation today! I will not go anywhere! Arrest me? Put me in handcuffs? Before I settle this score, I will stay here. I want to show the Provincial leaders what you all are up to! " Dong Xuebing had wanted to create trouble on his own. Now, with Xie Huilan's support and the leader's orders, he was more confident.
The Senior Officer frowned. "Chief Dong, you …"
"Stop talking to him!" The skinny officer stepped forward and took the keys from the Senior Officer. "Do you want to go or not? I will release his handcuffs first! "
Dong Xuebing laughed and looked at him. "It's easy to put the handcuffs on, but it's hard to release them."
The skinny officer shouted. "Cut the crap! Put your hands out! "He grabbed Dong Xuebing's hands and wanted to put the handcuffs on him.
"Ah … you still dare to use force?" Dong Xuebing raised his eyebrows and swung his wrist upwards. Dong Xuebing's fist landed on the skinny officer's chin!
The skinny officer covered his chin. "F * * k! How dare you assault an officer? "
Dong Xuebing laughed. "Don't try to slander me. These are all my leftovers. Oh, you are the one who asked me to put my hands out. I put my hands out. What are you doing? Why are you asking me to put my hands out? "
The Senior Officer grabbed the skinny officer. "Don't hit him! Go back and report to the higher-ups! "
Dong Xuebing said. "Get me a pillow and blanket. I want to spend the winter here."
In the bureau chief's office, two criminal police officers reported the situation to Sun Hai.
But Sun Hai had just received a call, and the Provincial Public Security Leaders and experts will be arriving in a few minutes. He can't be bothered to deal with Dong Xuebing now. He thought for a while and asked the two officers to lock the door. Since Dong Xuebing does not want to come out, they will lock the door until the Provincial Leaders leave. If the reporters arrive, Dong Xuebing might run out and cause a ruckus, and there will be no way to resolve this. Covering the lid — this was Sun Hai's usual method. He was prepared to go all out.
A few minutes later, the provincial leaders and experts arrived.
The reporters who heard the news also flocked to the scene. Sun Hai and a few other city leaders were there to welcome them.
Inside the dark room.
The door closed with a creak and a click. It was locked from the outside.
Dong Xuebing sneered at the small window and sat on the ground. He leaned his head against the wall and waited quietly.
Five minutes …
Ten minutes …
Twenty minutes …
Two policemen passed by the door and were talking to each other.
"The experts seem to have finished their appraisal. The relics are all real."
"Is that so? Haha … our City will be in the limelight this time. "
"That's right. Let's go to the east building. I heard Deputy Chief Huo from the Provincial Public Security is here."
Dong Xuebing's heart turned cold when he heard Zhang Ze City's Public Security Bureau was in a good mood. These relics were supposed to be his, and now, Zhang Ze City had snatched them from him. Damn! No one will be able to take this lying down!
After a while, a black figure flashed past the window.
One second later, the black figure returned and peeked into the room.
Dong Xuebing frowned and looked up. He saw a man's face and did not know who he was. He thought it was the police and was about to ask them to prepare a few blankets when a camera appeared on the window and pointed at Dong Xuebing. The camera moved slightly and seems to be adjusting its position to take a picture. Dong Xuebing was furious. I am already locked up, and you all still dare to take pictures of me? What are you all trying to do? But after a while, Dong Xuebing felt something was wrong. If these people are from Zhang Ze City's Public Security Bureau, why are they taking pictures of him? Why would he be so sneaky?
Reporters!
It's a reporter!
Dong Xuebing got excited. Although he does not understand why all the reporters are here to take pictures of him when they should be focusing on the recovery of the relics, there are only a few possibilities. The first possibility is that they had received news of Dong Xuebing's whereabouts and wanted to use this as a scoop. Secondly, Xie Huilan is a former leader in the Central Publicity Department and has connections. Maybe Sister Xie had sent these people!
Never mind!
Anyway, this is a good thing!
Dong Xuebing's expression immediately changed. He lowered his head and pretended to be angry. He was very into character.
Take the pictures! Hurry up!
Hurry up and take the pictures!
Click, click, the flash flashed a few times in a row, and then the black shadow on the window flashed and disappeared without a trace.
At the same time, Dong Xuebing's angry expression disappeared and turned into a smile.
… …
Yan Tai County.
Mayor's office.
"Mayor, I have received the pictures." Hu Silian, who was sitting in front of the PC, said.
Xie Huilan nodded. "Open it."
Hu Silian clicked on the email and saw Dong Xuebing locked up in a small dark room. It should be a serious picture with handcuffs, but when Hu Silian saw Dong Xuebing's expression, she burst out laughing. She quickly stops laughing and looks at Mayor Xie's expression.
Xie Huilan laughed. "This Xiao Dong!"
Hu Silian knew why the Mayor is laughing. If it was someone who is not familiar with Dong Xuebing, they would think he was wronged. But those who know Dong Xuebing know his expression is too exaggerated and must be an act.
Xie Huilan laughed again. "Not bad. You are even wearing handcuffs. You are a felon."
Hu Silian shivered as she could hear the coldness in Mayor Xie's tone. "Look at this picture …"
"Keep it as a backup." Xie Huilan took out her phone and made a call. "Hello, it's me … Yes. I had seen the pictures, and I will use this to stir up the emotions … Alright. Thank you for your hard work. Can you see the evening papers in the afternoon? I know you are also under pressure. If the higher-ups want to pursue you, you don't need to do anything. I will transfer you to the Central Publicity Department."
Hu Silian's wrist trembled, and she quickly pretended she did not hear anything. She had been Xie Huilan's secretary for some time, but the more she interacted with Mayor Xie, the more she felt she is unpredictable. What kind of place is the Central Publicity Department? It is a powerful department in the Central Government and is not like the Youth League Committee or the Ministry of Science and Technology. How can Mayor Xie transfer me? Even if Xie Huilan had worked in the Central Publicity Department before, it will not make sense!
… …
About an hour later.
Zhang Ze City Public Security Bureau. Everyone had left, and only some Public Security officers remained.
In an office, Provincial Public Security Deputy Director Huo looks at the officers from Zhang Ze City Public Security. "We had arrested the ringleader and recovered the relics. This is a good fight."
Sun Hai laughed. "This is what we should do."
Deputy Director Huo nodded. "We will take over Mr. Wu and the relics, and the rest will be investigated by the Provincial Public Security. Oh, tell me about how you solved the case, and we will report the details to the Provincial Public Security tomorrow." The moment Deputy Director Huo received the news, he rushed over with the experts from the Provincial Public Security. He only knows the case had been solved, but he did not have the time to ask about the details. He had heard rumors that Yan Tai County is involved in this case.
The few officers from Zhang Ze City Public Security looked at each other.
Sun Hai hesitated for a second and smiled. "Two officers from Yan Tai County and Lui An City had participated in this case, and they played a key role in solving the case. When the criminals tried to smuggle on a boat, two officers from Zhang Ze City discovered them and stopped them in time." Sun Hai had only mentioned the general direction of the case and did not mention the details. What he said is true, but there are some discrepancies.
Deputy Director Huo asked. "Where are they?"
"These two officers." Sun Hai looks at Brother Yu and Xiao Wang beside him.
Xiao Wang is very nervous and did not say anything after greeting Deputy Director Huo. Brother Yu, on the other hand, is calm and greeted Deputy Director Huo.
Sun Hai explained. "Xiao Xu was injured when he exchanged fire with the criminals."
Deputy Director Huo said. "Good job. I heard there are more than a dozen criminals, and all of them are armed. Little comrade, hehe, were you scared then? "
Brother Yu replied energetically. "I'm not afraid. I didn't think too much about it. When I found out that the relics were in their hands, I wanted to get them back even if I had to die. I can't let them ship them overseas. If not, I will be a sinner to the country."
"Well said!" Deputy Director Huo looks at Brother Yu. "Rest well, and I will give you all credit!"
Xiao Wang knows what happened. At that time, he and Brother Yu had chickened out. If it weren't for Hou Qing, they would not have gone upstairs. Now, Brother Yu is telling the truth, and Xiao Wang's face turned red. But things had already developed to this stage, and Chief Sun had reminded them not to say anything.
In the end, Deputy Director Huo gave the officers from Zhang Ze City Public Security a few words of encouragement and left with his men.
Sun Hai and the rest of the Bureau leaders looked at each other and smiled. They had gotten this credit.
At the same time, newspapers from all over the country had been placed on the shelves. Normally, the newspapers would be finalized in the morning or the day before, and they would only need to print and deliver it in the afternoon. However, a national case like the museum theft would naturally not be delayed until the next day. They would definitely have to cut the queue. In Beijing dialect, this was called "adding three more". Many newspapers had temporarily added a front-page editor or deputy editor to briefly explain the case solved by the Zhang Ze City Police.
Jianghai Newspaper was a newspaper that did not have a big influence in the province, but it was definitely not a small newspaper. This was because this kind of newspaper was in charge of the local propaganda department. Generally, they would not report any negative news that crossed the line. Jianghai Newspaper was one of the best among them. They were known for following the rules and regulations. Any sensitive news that involved politics had never been reported in the newspaper. Often, they would report things that were peaceful and harmonious.
But today, a piece of news in the newspaper of Jianghai Newspaper made everyone's jaws drop.
"A hero became a criminal?"
This is the headline. It is a headline that makes people want to continue reading!
This article took up almost an entire page, and the opening paragraph did not mention the "criminal". Instead, it was about Chief Dong from Yan Tai County's Public Security Bureau. The article mentioned Dong Xuebing's arrest of the Underground Gambling Gang, how he caught a man jumping off a building with his bare hands, how he risked his life to save the people who were drowned in a landslide, and how he was willing to be a hostage to sneak into a school to save the teachers and students.
Some people had heard of this article before, and some are seeing it for the first time.
But without exception, everyone who read the article took a deep breath!
Everyone had read many articles praising Dong Xuebing. Most of them are about how dedicated they are to their jobs, how they care about the people, and how they work overtime without sleeping. These are all official stories, and there are not many concrete examples. But this article about Dong Xuebing does not use any official language. It only uses the facts and photos of what Dong Xuebing had done in the past.
At the end of the article, it mentions the Provincial Museum burglary case.
To everyone's surprise, the newspaper reported that Dong Xuebing from Yan Tai County is the one who solved the case. This is different from what the other newspapers had reported. When they read further, they saw a picture of Dong Xuebing in a dark room, handcuffs, and an angry and grieving face. Anyone who saw this will frown. Isn't this the treatment of a felon?
What happened? Didn't they say Dong Xuebing had solved the case? How come he was arrested?
The article also did not give a clear answer.
The last paragraph of the article is a rhetorical question.
Why is the hero who solved the case a criminal?
Why is Zhang Ze City's Police the one who solved the case?
At the end of the article, there is a small sentence. According to our reporter, Dong Xuebing is still being held in Zhang Ze City's Public Security Bureau.
He is still being held in custody?
He is still being held in custody?
Although it is not stated clearly, many people can understand the meaning behind the sentence!
When this article was published, it caused an uproar. It might not be a big deal in other Counties, but in Yan Tai County, many people were furious when they read this article. Dong Xuebing might not know this, but Chief Dong has the best reputation among the people in Yan Tai County. He had risked his life several times to save others. Now, when Chief Dong is arrested by Zhang Ze City, many people were furious. Every province has xenophobic sentiments, and the people will protect their own people.
Zhang Ze City's phones were flooded.
Some Yan Tai County's people called Zhang Ze City's Government office and started scolding Dong Xuebing.
Some people called Zhang Ze City's Public Security Bureau, District Branch Bureau, and Police Station, demanding them to release Dong Xuebing immediately!
Many people who were saved by Dong Xuebing in the past, like Nan Liu Primary School's teachers, the students' parents, and the civilians who survived the landslide, contacted each other when they heard Dong Xuebing was locked up. They are going to Zhang Ze City Public Security Bureau to get Dong Xuebing back!
On the internet, many people are denouncing Dong Xuebing.
What can the civilians do to retaliate? There is only one thing they can do. Scold!
No one knows who organized this, but all the important websites in Zhang Ze City are flooded with people's spit!
"F * * k! Release Dong Xuebing immediately! "
"These bastards! Who gave you the right to arrest him? "
"Hand over Chief Dong! Our Yan Tai County is the one who solved this case! "
"These bastards! Are they trying to snatch our credit?! "
Someone else said, "Did that person really commit a crime? If not, why are they arresting him? "
Someone scolded. "F * * k you!"
Someone added. "Ignore that idiot. He must be from Zhang Ze City's Public Security Bureau!"
Yan Tai County's people are not the only ones denouncing Dong Xuebing. Many websites also published articles like [A Hero Becomes a Felon], and the number of clicks is increasing every minute. Zhang Ze City's Public Security Bureau is scolding Dong Xuebing.
No one, including Jianghai News Agency, had expected this incident to cause such a huge commotion.
The person in charge of Jianghai News Agency was in his office, answering calls from his leaders. He was troubled by Mayor Xie, and from the angry tone of those leaders, it seems they want to remove him from his position.
… …
Ring, ring, ring. A phone rang in a car.
Deputy Chief Huo, who was sitting in the back seat, was admiring the scenery outside. He took out his phone and answered. "Chief."
"Old Huo, are you still in Zhang Ze City?"
"Almost. I am almost out of the city."
"Don't come back first. Go to Zhang Ze City Public Security Bureau now!"
Deputy Chief Huo was stunned when he heard Chief Huo's tone. "This …" There is a case?
Chief Huo replied in a deep voice. "You still don't know about Jianghai Evening News? Buy a copy and have a look. Then, investigate this matter immediately! What the hell is going on?! A few leaders from Yan Tai County and Fen Zhou City had told me about this incident, and I thought it was a misunderstanding. How can our own people arrest our own people? Maybe they are not sure of Dong Xuebing's identity. It's been a few hours, and Dong Xuebing is still locked up. He is even handcuffed?! What is he trying to do?! Go and ask Sun Hai what he is trying to do! The case is solved, and the relics are found. This should be a good thing. Why did he make such a mess?! Go and investigate! Investigate from the beginning to the end! "
Deputy Chief Huo knew something must have happened. After hanging up, he asked his men to get the newspapers.
Deputy Director Huo's face changed when he saw Dong Xuebing being handcuffed and locked up in a small dark room!
"Drive!" Deputy Chief Huo shouted. "Return to Zhang Ze City Public Security Bureau!"
This incident had blown up!
Even the Provincial Leaders are alerted!
