Chapter 633: Anyone who dares to move will be shot on the spot
Sun Chengjun's sudden powerful aura frightened everyone.
Basically, these people are just oppressing unarmed commoners. As for shooting and killing, they truly don't have the courage, and they all know that if they really killed someone, they would lose their heads.
But the person holding a gun opposite them is indeed a genuine police officer; describing their behavior as resisting the law is understandable. Moreover, they have never seen someone who exudes killing intent like this from childhood to now. At this moment, setting aside Sun Chengjun's identity, they have ten thousand reasons to believe he would really shoot.
This series of actions left Zhang Zhaoxia dumbfounded, because they only had one plan: no matter what, Sun Chengjun would not be allowed to take anyone away today. For any ordinary person, under their bullying numbers, there was simply nothing to do.
Her reason for coming was not just to account for her own identity; more importantly, it was to step forward at the crucial moment and act as a good person, shouting a couple of times to clear a path for Sun Chengjun to leave.
In that case, even if Sun Chengjun didn't feel grateful to her, he could still have an explanation within the bureau, and might even receive commendation and praise for this move. Killing two birds with one stone, she sometimes feels happy thinking about it; otherwise, she wouldn't have called him directly—he could just take temporary leave and hide in some remote corner without worrying.
"Lao Ding, if anyone dares to move, shoot them dead on the spot—they are now committing violent resistance to the law! We have our duty, we have law enforcement authority; if anything happens, I'll take responsibility!"
As his resounding, powerful, domineering words fell, Lao Ding at that moment finally recovered from his earlier shock.
At this moment, he suddenly felt that this young deputy chief had probably really exchanged gunfire with criminals before, which is why he had such sharp killing intent and methods. Moreover, what's even more valuable is that he completely disregards Geng Miao's retaliation.
Since even a young deputy chief in his twenties has gone all out, what does Lao Ding, a man with unfulfilled ambitions, have to hold back for? He immediately straightened his back: "Alright, rest assured—if they dare to move even a bit, I'll shoot them dead on the spot!"
His shout made that burly volunteer militia member, whose eyes had just been full of shock and fear, also snap to attention; he raised his gun with both hands and aimed at the nearest person.
If anyone from that group dared to step forward, he would definitely fire; at this point he was completely fired up. Naturally young and impulsive, as long as someone backed him up from behind, his courage was no ordinary size.
The security team member being pointed at by a gun instinctively stepped back and then slipped into the crowd. They were used to swaggering, but today even their second brother got beaten, let alone their ilk. No matter whether they could save face afterward, they couldn't withstand these two shots.
"What are you doing? Who gave you the guts to violently resist the law here? All of you, put your hands on your heads and squat down—hear me?"
At this critical moment, Zhang Zhaoxia, who had been behind the crowd, shouted. At this moment, he knew better than anyone that if anyone in that group dared to fire, they would face what kind of consequences.
After his shout, everyone present seemed to have heard a divine command, all putting their hands on their heads and squatting down properly.
"Lao Ding, you drive; if anyone dares to block us, just ram straight through!"
After saying that, he dragged the still pig‑squealing Geng Biao onto the police station's patrol car. There were originally three suspects; adding Geng Biao made them too many for one vehicle, and since they hadn't brought a prisoner transport, they had to use the police station's car.
The people at the police station had been terrified stupid, only reacting after Sun Chengjun got into the vehicle.
"What are you standing there for? Go drive!"
Zhang Zhaoxia shouted from the side, knowing deep down that this matter had already exceeded his control; if he didn't act proactively and try to smooth things over, he might well be disciplined afterward. As soon as the words left his mouth, he himself jumped into the driver's seat, started the engine, and sped off toward the county bureau like the wind.
Behind him, Lao Ding also stomped hard on the accelerator; at this moment he seemed to have returned to his youth, to the time when he first joined the police force, just became a squad leader, full of lofty ambition. At that moment, his vow to become the bane of criminals seemed to be fulfilled again.
"Lao Ding, directly detain these three people at the Shuanggou Town Paichusuo; I believe the comrades there and Director Zhang will surely keep an eye on these three!"
He said via the walkie‑talkie to Lao Ding. Lao Ding first blinked slightly, then drove toward the Shuanggou Town Paichusuo; hearing this, Zhang Zhaoxia, who was driving in the front seat, twitched a little.
Although she is a woman, and although Geng Miao forced her into the police force, after all this time she still has some political savvy.
If they had directly taken these three people to the Lie Shan Public Security Bureau, its director Lin Zhinan would surely have been pressured to release them, causing Sun Chengjun's operation to fall short.
As Lin Zhinan, holding the post of Public Security Bureau Director, if he really let them go he would have various excuses to justify it. But given his special status and the duty of a police station chief, if he actually released them inside the station, that police station chief position would be over for him.
In an instant, he couldn't help but glance sideways through the rearview mirror at this seemingly still‑young deputy chief.
He had originally thought such a person was basically just gilding himself through connections, but he hadn't expected there to be real ability. Earlier he had already reassessed Sun Chengjun's fierce momentum, yet he still felt he had underestimated the enemy, as had Geng Miao and several brothers of the Geng family.
After Sun Chengjun finished speaking, he then said to Zhang Zhaoxia: "Director Zhang, let's first take Geng Biao to the city hospital for surgery."
This again exceeded Zhang Zhaoxia's expectations; for a moment her brows involuntarily knotted together.
Originally he could have completely stayed out of it, just watching how Geng Miao would act—no matter what, it wouldn't affect his role as police station chief. But now, wanting to stay out of it is almost impossible, and if the person were released from their station, he would have no way to explain himself.
As he was thinking, Sun Chengjun continued: "Director Zhang, wouldn't this be troublesome for you? To be frank, I'm also new here; I don't trust a single person in the county bureau—I might bring someone in only to have them let them go right after."
"When the County Party Committee leadership and even the city leaders apply all kinds of pressure, plus Geng Miao's underhanded tactics, they will definitely release the people. But keeping them in your custody puts my mind at ease."
"After all, you yourself are from Shuanggou Town, and I've specifically inquired—you enjoy great prestige around here. Moreover, I trust your character and conduct; I checked these past two days and you have indeed received commendation, absolutely a cadre valued and heavily cultivated by the organization."
Upon hearing these words, Zhang Zhaoxia felt as if her throat were blocked—she could neither admit nor deny it, and certainly could not refuse such trust.
Because Sun Chengjun said the people must first be detained in their police station, this is an order, not a request. As a subordinate unit, she simply had no qualification to refuse.
All she could do was grit her teeth and say: "Thank you, Director Sun, for your trust; I will do everything possible to withstand the pressure and ensure that no problems arise during the detention of those people at our Shuanggou Town Paichusuo."
