Chapter 223 Calling the Director of Public Security for Help
He moved quickly; it seems Chen Zhihu isn't a complete waste after all.
Qi Tongwei wanted to see what kind of disgusting face Wu Yong had. He spent a prostitute's money to finish college, could he really do something like murder to cover it up?
"Let's go, to the criminal investigation team right away."
"Yes, Qizhi."
Qi Tongwei, along with Lan Ying and Wu Dali, immediately rushed to the Municipal Bureau.
Upon arriving at the criminal investigation team, Chen Zhihu, radiating arrogance, demanded, "What are you doing here?"
Qi Tongwei retorted directly, "What do you think I'm here for?"
Chen Zhihu pointed at Qi Tongwei angrily, "How the hell should I know what you're here for?"
Qi Tongwei grabbed Chen Zhihu's fingers again, yelling, "What the hell are you doing? How dare you talk to me like that?"
Chen Zhihu was incredibly stupid. While others learn from their mistakes, he never learned his lesson and immediately knelt before Qi Tongwei in the same way, in pain.
"Fuck your mother, let me go!"
This scene was all too familiar; it was happening again, and everyone was stunned.
Lan Ying couldn't understand Qi Tongwei. Yesterday, he was flexible and assertive when he came to the Municipal Bureau, but today he was only assertive and not flexible.
Qi Tongwei kicked Chen Zhihu to the ground, yelling, "You fucking got this straight, this nightclub case falls under the provincial department's jurisdiction. I'm here today to interrogate the suspect."
"Team Leader Chen"
"Team Leader Chen"
Two criminal police officers quickly helped Chen Zhihu up. Chen Zhihu was so angry that he reached for his gun again, but he forgot that he had it on him. He became furious and embarrassed.
"Arrest him!"
Qi Tongwei remained unfazed, giving a disdainful smile. "Arrest me? You fucking aren't qualified."
The criminal police officers were furious. This was too arrogant. This was the municipal bureau, not the provincial department.
Wu Dali was full of questions. "Brother, didn't you say you were here to see the suspect? Why does it look like you're here to fight? If it's going to be a fight, then call more people over."
Having been beaten up at the criminal investigation team, Chen Zhihu would be utterly ashamed if word got out. Of course, he had long since lost all face in front of Qi Tongwei.
"Captain Chen, don't act rashly, don't act rashly!"
A detective quickly protected his service weapon; if Chen Zhihu used his gun to kill someone, he could forget about being a policeman.
Upon seeing Chen Zhihu's attempt to seize the gun, the criminal police officers quickly retreated, protecting their service weapons.
"Captain Chen, calm down, calm down."
Old Li quickly grabbed Chen Zhihu, since he wasn't carrying a gun anyway.
Chen Zhihu shoved Lao Li aside, shouting, "Qi Tongwei, I'm going to kill you today!"
Qi Tongwei looked at Chen Zhihu like a clown, thinking, "Damn it, I'm not someone to be trifled with."
"Chen Zhihu, stop your fucking nonsense. If you were to shoot and kill a policeman in a police station, the country wouldn't allow it. If you want to kill me, you'll have plenty of opportunities after work. It's just a matter of whether you can seize them."
Old Li is a reliable person, but he's truly dedicated when it comes to matters. After Chen Zhihu shook him off, he quickly grabbed him back. As a veteran criminal investigator, he knew that when young people get impulsive, they're really willing to fire a gun, let alone someone with Chen Zhihu's powerful background, who is even more reckless.
"Captain Chen, don't act rashly, don't act rashly!"
What are you doing?
Chen Wenru shouted loudly, and Chen Zhihu calmed down a bit when he saw his aunt.
The criminal investigation team also breathed a sigh of relief; apart from Chen Wenru, there really was no one who could dissuade Chen Zhihu.
Chen Wenru looked at Qi Tongwei, her eyes filled with undisguised contempt, "Comrade Qi Tongwei, what are you doing here again?"
"Director Chen, the criminal investigation team has apprehended the murderer, so of course I'm here to interrogate him."
Qi Tongwei's tone was very firm, completely in a businesslike manner.
Chen Wenru suppressed her anger and maintained her authority as a leader. "The criminal investigation team just apprehended the suspect, and the provincial department wants to take him away. Is that reasonable?"
The criminal investigation team was furious. "Damn it, this guy's just here to steal the credit, shameless!"
Qi Tongwei retorted forcefully, "Director Chen, the provincial department isn't so shameless as to try and steal the credit from the municipal department. This case is under the provincial department's jurisdiction. Since the criminal investigation team has apprehended the murderer, we can keep him, but he must be subject to the provincial department's supervision. What if the criminal investigation team resorts to torture to extract confessions?"
The criminal police team was furious, but there was also something strange on everyone's face, because Qi Tongwei guessed right. They did indeed use methods on Wu Yong, such as tying him up with ropes and shocking him with electric batons. Wu Yong was tortured all night and lost control of his bladder and bowels. It was still unknown whether his little brother could regain his virility.
Chen Wenru was also a smart woman, and she quickly noticed the changes in the faces of everyone in the criminal investigation team. The longer the case dragged on, the more trouble the provincial department would cause to the Golden Phoenix Nightclub. Therefore, Chen Zhihu needed to help Qiu Jinkun solve the case as soon as possible.
"Comrade Qi Tongwei, please don't talk nonsense and spout rubbish. The criminal investigation team worked day and night to catch the suspect. You are slandering them."
Qi Tongwei stood his ground, "Director Chen, I'm also a police officer. When it comes to solving cases, emotions can run high. I was just reminding everyone to always remember Party discipline and national laws; I didn't mean to slander anyone."
Chen Zhihu couldn't stand it anymore. What right did Qi Tongwei, an outsider, have to come to Tianhe City and boss people around?
"Qi Tongwei, you fucking get the hell out of here! This case has nothing to do with you!"
"Chen Zhihu, your boss is here, so shut the hell up and go play somewhere else."
Qi Tongwei showed no respect for Chen Wenru, scolding her nephew like he was training a dog.
Chen Wenru's face darkened. She now wholeheartedly supported the people of Chenjiazhai in throwing Qi Tongwei into the Lingdingyang. Damn it, they were too arrogant. Did they really not know who was in charge of Tianhe City?
"Comrade Qi Tongwei, the criminal investigation team's handling of cases is naturally supervised by the procuratorate. I believe that given your current emotional state, it is not suitable for you to take on this case."
It seems that I won't be able to see the suspect today unless I use my connections.
Qi Tongwei was also straightforward; he took out his mobile phone from his bag and called Ye Xingguo directly.
"Director Ye, the criminal investigation team has apprehended the suspect in the nightclub hostess murder case. I came to interrogate him, but the team has been obstructing me. I suspect they may have used torture to extract a confession from the suspect. Please provide your instructions."
Ye Xingguo coughed a few times. He had heard early in the morning that Qi Tongwei had shut down the Golden Phoenix Nightclub last night and was now fighting with someone at the Municipal Bureau. He was a real headache.
"I'm calling Director Dai right now, don't be impulsive."
"Yes, Director Ye, I will certainly not be afraid of powerful figures and will resolutely complete the mission."
Ye Xingguo was speechless. This kid just knew how to play innocent and talk big.
Chen Wenru's face turned green. This kid really had no political awareness at all, daring to complain to the leader right in front of her.
The criminal investigation team members looked at each other in disbelief. Just who was this kid? He managed to get a call all the way to the Director of the Public Security Bureau—something they never even dared to dream of.
Chen Zhihu is usually very arrogant and domineering, but he doesn't have the guts to confront the Director of the Public Security Bureau head-on.
Wu Dali was envious. His older brother was really awesome; he could make a phone call to the director of the Public Security Bureau whenever he wanted.
Lan Ying wanted to give Qi Tongwei a thumbs up. Although his behavior seemed impulsive, it was really satisfying. If her father had had the support of such a high-ranking leader when he was handling cases, he wouldn't have sacrificed himself in vain.
After receiving Ye Xingguo's call, the city bureau chief Dai Chunsheng rushed over, nearly losing his life in the process. These young juniors had no sense of martial ethics whatsoever; they could even alarm the provincial public security chief while investigating a case.
