Courtyard House: My Wife is Xu Huizhen

Page 514

Such violence startled all the thugs, who all cooperated and obediently lay on the ground. In the blink of an eye, the alley was filled with members of Class 3.

Every soldier trained by Zhang Guangming is highly professional, and with He Yuzhu personally leading the team today, everyone knows it's their time to shine.

Following the technical points taught by Zhang Guangming, all the thugs' arms were tied behind their backs, bound from both above and below. Then, their coats were lifted up from behind and placed over their heads to cover their eyes.

This method makes it difficult for the opponent to exert any strength, making it hard to break free. In addition, the obstructed view greatly reduces the chance of escape.

Once they were sure they were safe, the team members split up and searched the perpetrators one by one, finding knives, iron bars, and other items on them. The items were then collected and managed together.

Sun Tie and An Zhibiao stood on either side of He Yuzhu, witnessing the smooth, fluid movements of the militiamen in the 3rd squad.

Sun Tie laughed and said, "How did you train all this? You're even more professional than the officers at our police station."

An Zhibiao also said, "Yes, and look at how lazy and irresponsible everyone in our police station is, there's really no comparison."

He Yuzhu only said a few words of modesty and didn't say anything at all, because the security department had always been under Zhang Guangming's leadership.

He's a professional who came from the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics training base; these are just ordinary subjects.

All the criminals outside have been apprehended, and the bad guys on the second floor have even less chance of escaping.

The group of 20 big men from Class 1 and Class 2 rushed up and quickly captured all the people upstairs.

The two class monitors exchanged a bitter glance, their faces showing resentment. The spotlight had been stolen by Class 3 today.

Who would have thought these people were so reckless, jumping from the second-floor windows? The remaining three classes managed to catch most of them, while only three were caught up from upstairs.

He Yuzhu turned his head and looked at the three people upstairs. They didn't see the two leaders. They were all relatively young and probably nobodies.

He immediately jumped off the building, which surprised Sun Tie, who shouted "Watch out!"

This was only the second floor, so it was no problem for He Yuzhu. He waved his hand, and seeing that He was alright, Sun Tie didn't say anything more.

The students in Class 3 felt a lot of pressure. They gathered everyone together, and the class monitor loudly reported:

"Reporting to the battalion commander, we have captured six criminals, and none of them escaped."

"Very good, comrades, you've worked hard," He Yuzhu said.

"Battalion Commander, you've worked hard serving the people."

He Yuzhu praised them a few times with satisfaction, and then began to look at the six thugs who had been arrested in front of him.

Song Laosan, who only had nine fingers, was easily found. His left little finger had been chopped off, leaving a very unsightly scar.

According to He Yushui and Yu Haitang, it was this Song Laosan who touched He Yushui's face, touched Yu Haitang's chest, and patted her buttocks.

He Yuzhu was furious. Who was Yu Haitang? She was almost his wife. Xu Damao, that scoundrel, had married Yu Haitang in his previous life, making him Yan Jiecheng's brother-in-law.

He Yuzhu was sizing up a young man next to him who was begging for mercy:

"Officer, we are all good people. We are Master Qing's men."

"Third Master Qing?"

"Yes, yes, yes, that's right. Master Qing is all-powerful here, he has connections in both the legitimate and criminal worlds. Even if you arrest us, he can just say a word and we'll be released."

He Yuzhu didn't think much of what was said. There were many people in the class, and besides, many of the people in the public security system were left over from the previous dynasty. They were all brought in at the same time.

As long as they turn over a new leaf and have no criminal record, they can all continue to serve. Many of the veteran comrades in the grassroots police stations are police officers from before the liberation.

These words sounded extremely harsh to An Zhibiao. He said that the Qianmen Police Station had a very poor deterrent effect on these people because it was not doing its job and had condoned these bad guys.

Sun Tie was somewhat surprised. Although there were some people forming gangs in Dongcheng District, the public security was much better there. There were no such organized groups threatening and intimidating people in broad daylight, leading to such vicious incidents.

It turns out that the security situation in Qianmen Street is so dirty and chaotic, with these criminals still running rampant on the streets.

He patted An Zhibiao on the shoulder with some sympathy and gave him a comforting smile.

He Yuzhu chuckled twice and asked, "Do you think Qing Laosan has a lot of face? You're all going to be arrested today. Even if Qing Laosan came, it wouldn't make a difference. I'm telling you."

Before the other person could say anything more, they saw An Zhibiao not far away and their expression turned ugly.

Master Qing is very influential, but he can only ensure that he himself is not arrested by the police station and cannot get all his subordinates out of the police station.

He Yuzhu chuckled and then asked Na Jie, who only had nine fingers, who was the leader.

"You've got some nerve, kid. You actually came to our intersection to threaten my family. I can only say you're really brave and daring. Wash your neck and get ready to be shot."

Na Jie looked very upset and said, "Comrade, you've arrested the wrong person. None of us went to Jiaodaokou today."

"Yes, yes, we didn't go. We just had a meal here."

"Heh, I have plenty of ways to make you admit to the crimes you've committed."

"Take them all and send them to the machinery factory."

Na Jie struggled and shouted, "No, we want to go to the Qianmen Police Station. We are all from Qianmen Street, we don't want to go to any machinery factory."

Chapter 363 Lü Xiaomi is lying through her teeth

If you go to the police station, you can use your connections to smooth things over and easily get things settled.

But if you go to a machinery factory, that's not your territory anymore. At that point, your life or death will be up to fate, and you won't be able to control it at all.

He Yuzhu, of course, ignored their shouts and ordered the men of 3rd Squad to put all six men back into the jeep.

The guards were all very tough, and their actions became somewhat rough.

"Ouch, be gentle, be gentle."

"It hurts me."

"My feet are swollen, can I go see a doctor first?"

The team members completely ignored them, two of them supporting one person and dragging them forward.

He kicked the two men who were lying on the ground and refused to leave a couple of times, and they immediately became obedient. He then led them to the main street ahead.

The commotion had already attracted attention, and many people were watching from the surrounding area, especially the 11 jeeps, which were particularly conspicuous at that moment.

Moreover, the security team members of the machinery factory wore uniforms of the same standard, except that they did not have the police insignia.

Such a grand display of force, arresting a group of people, has sparked a great deal of discussion among everyone.

The group led by Na Jie were familiar faces to everyone; many residents knew them, and when they saw them being arrested, they whispered among themselves.

"Na Jie is really something. Which police station managed to arrest them?"

"Yes, these people should have been shot long ago."

"Keep your voice down, don't let his people hear you, or you'll be in trouble later."

"He's already been arrested, what am I afraid of him for?"

"Who knows if you'll be released in a few days? Do you still want to live here?"

He Yuzhu didn't care about any of that. He watched as Zhang Guangming arranged for one criminal to be placed in each car, with his own men sitting on both sides to prevent the criminals from jumping out.

Just then, a middle-aged man in a long gown walked over and asked, "Comrade, what unit are you from?"

He Yuzhu asked, "What's the matter?"

"Hello comrade, I am Zhuo Chengqiang, the official manager of Lao Zhengxing Restaurant. I don't care if you arrest people, but some tables, chairs, benches, furniture and tableware have been damaged. Who will compensate for these losses?"

He Yuzhu said, "You should compile a list of all the losses and submit it to the police station or the neighborhood committee. We will then provide compensation."

"Comrade, aren't you from the police station? What right do you have to arrest people here?"

"Whether I can arrest someone here or not is none of my business. If you just want compensation, you can follow the procedures. We will not shortchange you on any of your losses."

He Yuzhu's expression suddenly changed: "However, if you try to interfere with our arrest operation, don't blame us for being impolite."

Zhuo Chengqiang saw two comrades suddenly appear behind He Yuzhu, pointing guns at him, and forced a smile:

"Comrade, you've misunderstood. I absolutely did not mean to interfere with your arrest. I just wanted to know what unit you belong to, so I could explain to my superiors later."

He Yuzhu did not answer directly, but looked Zhuo Chengqiang up and down, wondering if he wanted to confirm with him which unit it was before reporting to Qing Laosan.

"Comrade, I'm a good person, I'm the company manager here..."

Zhuo Chengqiang wanted to explain further, but He Yuzhu waved his hand and said, "Two men, take him away."

"Why are you arresting me?"

He Yuzhu said, "I suspect you are in cahoots. Why did these bandits eat at your restaurant after committing the crime?"

"Huh? What are you saying, comrade? We run a restaurant, and we can't refuse to serve anyone who comes to eat, can we?"

"What you're saying makes no sense. You'd better come with us. We'll investigate carefully, and once we're sure you're not one of them, we'll release you."

He Yuzhu's words made him break out in a cold sweat. Master Qing was the local tyrant, and that Jie and Song Laosan's gang were probably Master Qing's lackeys.

I was just trying to curry favor with Master Qing, using the opportunity of demanding compensation to find out what kind of organization the other party was, and then report back to Master Qing.

However, He Yuzhu suspected that he should be arrested as well. Although he was not in Qing Sanye's group, he was to be tortured into confessing and falsely accused of being an accomplice. Who would he then be able to reason with?

This group of people did not look like ordinary police officers. They were not wearing police uniforms, and the fact that they owned more than 10 jeeps and could bring out more than 30 highly skilled soldiers indicated that they were someone of great importance.

Although he was the general manager of Lao Zhengxing Restaurant, he was ultimately just an ordinary cadre in the neighborhood.

When that time comes, who will be in charge of things for me?

Zhuo Chengqiang was immediately frightened and shouted, "Comrade, I was confused and misspoke. You are a magnanimous person, please don't hold it against me."

He Yuzhu asked, "Which sentence was wrong?"
