Chapter 191: I Said, Kneel Down!
The security team members usually trained in grappling and capture, and on this foundation, Li Xuewu had added search and restraint techniques, forming a more professional and meticulous set of arrest protocols.
Having had the action intensity clearly explained by their section chief in the police station courtyard, these security members had no more reservations.
As long as the target showed even a hint of resistance, they would receive a kick to the inner thigh. Once the target was neutralized, their hands were cuffed behind their backs and held over their heads. Their own hats were pulled down over their faces, and their jackets were pulled up from behind to cover their heads. This way, the targets could only be led along, with no possibility of escape or being recognized by others.
This sequence of movements was as smooth as flowing water, leaving Shen Fang and the others dumbfounded. This was too professional; how were they, the professionals, supposed to look at this?
Shen Fang had only conveyed the leadership's instructions for Li Xuewu to train the factory's security forces well. Internally, he hadn't thought much of these factory security members. He had seen what the previous Steel Mill security section was like; it couldn't be called useless, but it was truly inferior to the village militia.
They had been like a flock of sheep. Under the "careful guidance" of the previous security section chief, the Steel Mill security team existed in name only, with no one taking them seriously.
Looking at these members now, they might not have reached the level of the bureau's tactical team, but their movements were swift, their actions decisive, and the results were even better, completely crushing the young men from the station.
As soon as he fired that shot from the window, knowing Shen Fang and the others were following behind, Li Xuewu didn't bother with the three in the room and vaulted over the windowsill to jump down from the second floor.
Standing over 1.8 meters tall, jumping from the second floor didn't really affect him. He landed with a slight spring to absorb the force on his legs, then opened his long strides to chase into the alley.
He ignored the one who had been scared limp by the gunshot on the road; the team members were already handling him, so he charged straight ahead.
The moment the security team members saw the dogs charge out after Li Xuewu fired, they followed. By now, they had run deep into the alley, not knowing how many turns they had taken, but they were getting closer and closer.
These security team members also underwent high-intensity training, with running being their most frequent practice. Chasing these few scoundrels was quite easy for them.
As they were chasing, the security team members saw Li Xuewu catch up...
Parallel...
Overtaking...
The team members sighed inwardly: The Li Kezhang's two long legs are truly not just for show; one of his steps is worth one and a half of theirs.
No matter how fast Li Xuewu ran, he couldn't outrun the four-legged hounds. Before Li Xuewu could even display his "grappling" skills, the two men had been bitten by Blackie and the other hunting dogs.
"Ah!"
"Ah! Damn it! It hurts so much~"
"Get away! Ah~"
Li Xuewu ran up quickly, and saw the ten dogs each biting a part of the two men, constantly tearing at them.
Before the operation, Li Xuewu had ordered the team members to remove the dogs' "muzzles," specifically to allow them to capture criminals in such situations.
At Li Xuewu's signal, the security team members surrounded them and rescued the two.
Seeing the two lying on the ground wailing, Li Xuewu personally demonstrated to the new members how to search, bind, and blindfold them. Finally, ignoring their wails, he used a dagger handed to him by a team member to pry open the areas where the two had been bitten.
Fortunately, it was winter, and both men were wearing thick cotton-padded jackets, so they hadn't been bitten through; only their faces had been scratched by the dogs' claws, drawing blood.
Following Li Xuewu's instructions, the security team members collected the money, tickets, watches, keys, daggers, and other metal objects and valuables from the ground, then hauled the two men up.
Because they were handcuffed, the two men could only face Li Xuewu as they were grabbed by their shoulders and hair.
Li Xuewu looked at the two carefully. One of the most conspicuous ones was the black fatty Li Xue had described, with a scar at the corner of his mouth.
Just as Li Xuewu was sizing up the fatty, the short one beside him wailed for mercy: "Comrade, we are good people. I'm Zhou Laosan from Ju'er Alley. My brother works at the Grain Bureau."
Li Xuewu stared into the triangular eyes of Zhou Laosan and said, "Even if your brother worked in the Heavenly Court, he couldn't save you now. Do you know who I am?"
Zhou Laosan rolled his eyes and said, "I don't know. I don't know you. Why did I offend you? Can I give you money? Can I kneel for you?"
Li Xuewu sneered twice at the two of them, unwilling to bother with them anymore. With only this much skill, they actually dared to come out and earn blood money.
Covering their faces with their hats, the security team members pulled the men's jackets up from behind to cover their heads and escorted them back.
At first, the two didn't cooperate, wailing that they were in pain, that they needed to go to the hospital, claiming they were wronged.
"Ouch, it hurts, it hurts, be gentle, be gentle."
"Which station are you from? I know people."
"Even if you're from the bureau, you have to let us see a doctor first. Being bitten by a dog will kill people. Send us to the hospital, I want to go to the hospital..."
"If you don't take us to the hospital, I'll go to the bureau's front gate and kneel!"
Seeing the two not cooperating, the security team members weren't angry. After all, their Li Kezhang was leading the operation and was right there; they were just worried they wouldn't have a chance to show off. How did Xu Ning from the security squad get promoted?
The opportunity was right in front of them! Two big brothers had delivered it themselves!
Thanks to the big brothers for the opportunity!
"Why go to so much trouble? You want to kneel? Right here, I'll help you."
Little Liao, the shift leader, gave each of them a "cannonball" punch and a "liver strike," and the security members escorting them also kicked the backs of their knees.
This Little Liao was broad-shouldered and thick-waisted, with fists as big as bowls. With just these two moves, the two who had been clamoring to go to the bureau's gate to shout their grievances became obedient, kneeling down with a thud, and it took them a long time to recover, hunching their bodies and letting themselves be led wherever they were told.
When they escorted the three "masked men" back to the entrance of Kaorouji, they saw Shen Fang standing at the entrance with four other "masked men," talking to someone.
Li Xuewu didn't bother with Shen Fang first, and arranged for the seven "masked men" to sit on the back seats of the bicycles, facing backward. This way, the "masked men" had to lean forward to keep their balance, preventing them from moving around or having other ideas.
There was another reason for this: it prevented the criminals from using their handcuffs to strangle the person riding the bike or attacking other parts.
After Li Xuewu finished his arrangements, he walked toward the front gate. As he got closer, he heard the manager of Kaorouji asking Shen Fang for compensation.
Shen Fang said with a troubled face to the public manager who was asking for the bill: "We are performing official duties. We are in a hurry now. Please calculate the losses. We will discuss repairs and replacements later."
"Comrade, this is public property. Damaging it requires compensation. Our losses also include time costs. Besides, you are also public servants; how can you do this? You should have told us if you had an operation!"
Managers of restaurants at this time weren't like those in later generations; they weren't afraid of local units at all, because everyone was serving the people. What made you so special?
Seeing Shen Fang still arguing with him, Li Xuewu stepped forward and shook hands with the manager.
The manager, seeing Li Xuewu's fierce aura, was stunned and "shook hands" with him, hearing the man say: "Thank you for your understanding of our work. We are also performing official duties."
The manager, seeing this person had a fierce look, thought he was targeting him. Now that his hand was being held, he could only nod and say: "This is as it should be. I have already explained to the customers. There is no need for compensation for the disturbance."
Li Xuewu let go of the manager's hand, narrowed his eyes, and asked: "Which parts need compensation?"
The manager pointed to the window with a large hole and said: "Look, the window was knocked out. It needs to be replaced, along with the plates and such."
Li Xuewu nodded and said: "This is as it should be. Damaging public property requires compensation. That's correct."
The manager felt he had finally met a reasonable person, unlike the previous one who kept repeating the same "performing official duties" line. He thought, look how straightforward this comrade is.
Seeing the manager looking at him with disdain, Shen Fang thought, you've met your match today. I originally intended to write a report for you saying it was damaged during official duties, but now that you've met this "reasonable person," it looks like nothing needs to be written.
The manager, feeling he had finally met someone who understood, shook Li Xuewu's hand again and said: "Comrade, you really are a reasonable person. Should you pay us directly, or should you find someone to reinstall the window for us? It won't be much, 35 yuan in total, plus the meal money for these people, 60 yuan."
Li Xuewu was stunned and looked at the manager: "What money? Why should we pay compensation?"
The manager was also stunned. Could they not speak properly? Didn't you just say compensation was required?
The restaurant manager was also anxious, but looking at the soldiers behind this man and his own staff behind him, he tried to show a smile he thought was gentle: "Didn't you just say that damaging public property requires compensation?"
Li Xuewu nodded: "I did say that. I said damaging public property requires compensation, but I didn't damage it."
"Huh???"
The manager really couldn't handle this, no matter how rich his experience and cultivation were. Seeing the police officer who had been arguing with him earlier covering his mouth and turning away, his shoulders shaking, the manager knew he was being mocked, and his tone became less polite.
"Isn't it because you came in to make an arrest that caused..."
Li Xuewu spread his hands and said innocently: "Yes, we were arresting criminals. So the criminals should have stood obediently in place waiting for us to arrest them, right? Why did they jump out the window to escape? The criminals are responsible for damaging your shop's window. Do you think what I said is correct?"
The manager was stunned and nodded: "It's correct... but..."
Li Xuewu pointed at the three criminals and said: "They destroyed your public property, and we helped you catch the people. So shouldn't you thank us instead of asking us for compensation? Do you think what I said is correct?"
The manager nodded affirmatively: "It's correct!"
Li Xuewu shook the manager's hand again and said: "We won't eat the meal you're thanking us with; we have work to do. The losses here will be compensated by these three when they are released. We're leaving now."
The manager looked at the three and said: "Will it be soon?"
Li Xuewu and Shen Fang, who had adjusted his expression, nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, very soon."
The manager shook hands with both of them and said: "Come play often when you have time. I'll treat you next time."
Li Xuewu had no time to come play, and wouldn't come again even if he did! He pushed Shen Fang, who couldn't stop laughing, and went toward the motorcycle.
Seeing this group of people leave in a flash on motorcycles or bicycles, the manager's staff said: "Manager, our window is still empty, and these people didn't pay any money."
The manager looked at the staff member and said: "It wasn't them who broke it, so why should they pay?"
The staff member said anxiously: "But the person who broke the window didn't pay either!"
The manager looked at the staff member as if he were an idiot: "Since the person who broke the window has been caught, how can they pay?"
The staff member said again: "Since they've been caught by the police, the police should pay!"
The manager waved his hand at the staff member: "Why don't you understand? It wasn't the police who broke it, so why should the police pay? Don't worry, I've calculated it clearly. This is correct."
Staff member: "..."
Li Xuewu pulled Shen Fang, who couldn't stop laughing, and hurried away. Once they were far enough, Shen Fang burst into laughter.
Li Xuewu's face also showed a smile because they had caught the people. He was deliberately teasing the manager; it was a way to vent the tension and anger he had been feeling. The manager was also looking for trouble, blaming Shen Fang and the others for not giving notice before entering to make an arrest, and trying to fleece them.
Li Xuewu and Shen Fang arranged for the people to be escorted back to the police station in a formation of bicycles and motorcycles.
Upon entering the police station courtyard, Shen Fang led the police officers to bring all seven people into the main hall.
"Squat down!"
"Hold your heads!"
"Shen Suo, I am..."
Zhou Laosan had long wanted to get close to Shen Fang, but never had the chance. Being blindfolded, he couldn't find Shen Fang's position. Now that he was inside, he wanted to speak, but before he could finish, he was kicked in the back of the leg by a police officer and forced to squat down again.
"Didn't you hear me tell you to hold your heads and squat?"
Old Xing's actions were a bit rough, but this was his consistent style of doing things. He was all smiles to ordinary citizens, a real nice guy, but he had no patience for these thugs. This was why Shen Fang assigned the work of cracking down on evil forces to him.
Li Xuewu took four packs of cigarettes out of his bag and threw them to Liao Chengyuan, telling the security team members to report to the neighborhood and continue their patrol mission.
After sending off the security team members, Li Xuewu asked Shen Fang to wait for him, while he rode the white-painted police motorcycle back home.
When he arrived home, he saw Old Biao and the others standing in the outer courtyard smoking. Seeing Li Xuewu ride the police motorcycle into the courtyard, they all stepped forward to greet him.
"Wu Ge, what exactly happened?"
"Wu Ge, let me go find them. Give me one night, and I'll bring them to you."
Seeing the brothers asking anxiously, Li Xuewu jumped off the bike and patted Old Biao on the shoulder: "Do you think I'm still a small thug on the street? Don't you see this uniform? We have to follow the rules."
Seeing that they stopped clamoring, Li Xuewu said with a smile: "The people have been caught and are at the police station. I'm back to take my brother and sister to identify them. You guys go back to what you were doing; no need to be nervous anymore."
After saying this, he went to the front courtyard. When he arrived, he saw Li Shun sitting in a chair frowning, and the grandmother sitting on the long bench at the door, with that "old antique" beside her. When Li Xuewu entered the room, the whole family looked over.
"What exactly happened?"
Li Shun asked Li Xuewu with a frown.
Li Xuewu saw his brother and sister sitting in the room. Li Xuewu's mood had stabilized by now, and seeing Li Xuewu look over, he lowered his head in embarrassment.
"I'm handling a big case. It's just some dirty tricks by criminals. Those scoundrels have already been caught."
After replying, he said to Li Xuewu and Li Xue: "Put on your coats and come with me to identify them, to see if they are the ones who threatened you."
Li Xue was very straightforward; she went to the inner room to put on her coat as soon as Li Xuewu finished speaking. Li Xuewu, however, was hesitant. Seeing his second brother glaring at him, he explained forcefully: "It's not that... I'm afraid they'll retaliate against me after they get out... can we just forget it?"
These words made everyone in the room frown. Liu Yin scolded: "You coward. These people are like dogs; the more you fear them, the fiercer they get. If you beat them once, they'll go around you next time they see you. Hurry up and put on your coat and go with your second brother. If you don't go today, I'll beat you once a day."
Li Xuewu knew his third brother's personality. Although he wasn't as introverted as the eldest brother, he was timid. This was different from the eldest brother's timidity; the eldest brother was afraid of breaking rules, while the third brother was cowardly in a way that made him act tough but be weak inside. This might have been due to his upbringing, having a strong brother.
Li Xuewu walked up to his brother, who was about the same height as him, and placed his hands on his shoulders: "In this family, the most precious thing is the affection of family members. Similarly, this is what I cherish most. So, you can tell the family about anything. Getting angry or acting out won't solve problems."
"Secondly, about you being beaten, I know you're not a troublemaker. But I can tell you that we don't look for trouble, but we aren't afraid of it either. As long as I'm here, whoever dares to bare their fangs or extend their claws at you, I'll chop off their dog heads."
"I am a People's Police officer; it is my duty to deal with dark forces. They should be the ones afraid of me. I also need the support of my family. If you aren't afraid, then I won't be either, and only then can I have the confidence to fight the evil forces to the end."
Seeing that his second brother didn't hit him but instead reasoned with him and encouraged him, Li Xuewu no longer hesitated. He put on his coat, said goodbye to the family, and followed behind his second brother and sister out of the room.
Leaving behind a worried family, Li Xuewu rode the motorcycle and took his brother and sister back to the police station.
When he arrived, he saw Shen Fang waiting for him in the hall with his men. Li Xuewu jumped off the motorcycle, brought the two into the room, pointed at Shen Fang, and said to his brother and sister: "This is our own brother, surnamed Shen, the deputy chief of our station. Call him brother. If I'm not home in the future, you can come here and find Brother Shen."
When Li Xuewu and Li Xue entered the room, they saw a line of people squatting against the wall, with several police officers watching them. Seeing the male police officer at the door who was clearly a leader, they both called out affectionately: "Brother!"
Shen Fang, although not as fierce-looking as Li Xuewu, also had a fierce face. One could tell from the photos hanging on the wall behind the line of people that all four leaders had fierce expressions.
Someone in the station who liked giving nicknames had given the leadership team a nickname: "The Four Great Villains."
Li Xuewu and Li Xue also saw their brother's photo. Their brother was a leader in the station, and the fear in their hearts had slowly faded, replaced by a constant surge of pride and self-esteem.
Li Xuewu introduced them to Shen Fang: "This is my third brother, Xuecai, a freshman at the Medical College, and this is my younger sister, Li Xue, a sophomore in high school."
Shen Fang smiled and nodded at the two who called him brother: "I am brothers with your brother, so you are my brother and sister. If you have anything, come to the station to find me; don't be polite."
Li Xuewu, who had learned how to handle things, smiled and said to Shen Fang: "I know, Brother Shen. My brother has said at home that there is a good brother in our neighborhood police station."
Why were these words said in the police station hall? It was for those on the street who didn't have eyes to see and hear, so they wouldn't think that what was said here wouldn't reach the outside.
Li Xuewu wasn't afraid of those extremists; they wouldn't bother to take direct action against his family. It was these street thugs who were hateful, using crooked ways. Those rats were afraid of him and didn't dare to take action themselves, so they could only use these people to harass him.
Shen Fang laughed, patted Li Xuewu on the shoulder, pulled him forward, and raised his hand at the police officer on guard.
Old Xing and Wu Zi shouted at the people squatting: "Stand up!"
These people, who were still blindfolded, could only stand up under the pulling of the police officers and face the door.
Old Xing removed the clothes that had been lifted to cover their heads for each of them, and then took off the cotton hats that had been pulled down over their faces.
After these seven people were cleaned up, Shen Fang pointed at them and asked Li Xuewu and Li Xue: "Look, are these the seven people?"
These seven people had been blindfolded, and now, being hit by the lights in the hall, they were a bit unaccustomed and couldn't see who was in front of them. But they all knew in their hearts who had come to find them.
If you don't want people to know, don't do it. They knew what they had done, and today their brothers had kicked an iron plate.
They were beaten and wanted to wipe their faces with their sleeves, but Old Xing shouted: "Stand still! Don't blame me if you make any small moves!"
These people were scared of being beaten, and hearing Old Xing's words, they all endured their tears, closed their eyes, and stood still.
In fact, as soon as these people appeared, Li Xuewu and Li Xue recognized them. Li Xuewu pointed at the triangular-eyed one and said: "He's the one who hit me and said those threatening things to my brother."
Li Xue also pointed at the black fatty and said: "He's the one who threatened me, and also..."
Li Xuewu lit a cigarette for himself and said to the seven: "Every debt has its debtor. I'll give you a chance now. Tell me who ordered you, and where are they?"
These seven people weren't that united. Seeing Li Xuewu ask, they all looked at Zhou Laosan. By now, they had all adapted to the lights and saw who had come to find them.
It really was the thing they had done that afternoon. They thought it was just to scare people, but they didn't expect the other party to take it seriously and bring so many people to make an arrest. It looked professional, and they were all scared, so they were all signaling Zhou Laosan, who knew the inside story, to speak.
Li Xuewu saw that they were all looking at one person, who was still crying injustice, saying it was a misunderstanding.
"Brother Li, Master Li, I didn't recognize you. We were really just talking casually. We saw you were successful and didn't recognize your old brothers, so we said those things."
Hey, this grandson really had the guts. Even now, he was still splashing dirty water on Li Xuewu. Li Xuewu hadn't mixed with these people's ways before, and now this guy was trying to climb into a relationship with him.
Li Xuewu smiled and walked to the front of Zhou Laosan, looked at those triangular eyes, and said: "I really must be blind; I didn't recognize who you were."
Zhou Laosan lifted a bruised triangular eye and said: "We're all mixing on the street. You, Li Er, are successful now, have you forgotten Zhou Dewang? He works at the Grain Bureau; that's my big brother."
Li Xuewu looked at Zhou Laosan reporting his family background and sneered: "I didn't know what you meant by 'mixing on the street.' Which street am I from? And which street are you from?"
Zhou Laosan saw Li Xuewu was unmoved, and seeing the police officers he usually talked to either glaring or avoiding eye contact, he got a bit scared and grinned bitterly: "Master Li, stop joking with me."
Li Xuewu looked at Zhou Laosan with cold eyes: "Oh, joking, didn't you start it first?"
After saying this, he ignored Zhou Laosan and beckoned to Li Xuewu.
Li Xuewu didn't know what his second brother wanted him to do, but seeing his second brother beckon, he walked up.
Li Xuewu patted his brother on the shoulder and said: "How did he hit you before? You hit him back now."
Li Xuewu heard his second brother's words and was stunned. Zhou Laosan and the others were also stunned. Only Shen Fang nodded at Old Xing and the others, and these people either lowered their heads or looked elsewhere.
"Li Xuewu, don't you think this is too much? Aren't you afraid..."
Before Zhou Laosan could finish his sentence, before the content after "aren't you afraid" could be spoken, with a "slap," he received a big ear-slapping from Li Xuewu.
This slap was crisp and loud, stunning Zhou Laosan, but it woke Li Xuewu up.
Seeing his second brother take action, Li Xuewu looked at this person who had bullied him, threatened him, and was still threatening him now. He gritted his teeth, tried to take half a step forward, but seeing Zhou Laosan glaring at him with triangular eyes, he hesitated again.
Just as Zhou Laosan glared at Li Xuewu, Li Xuewu gave him another big ear-slapping.
"Slap!"
This slap was unreasonable and barbaric. Before Zhou Laosan could speak, Li Xuewu raised his hand and slapped him right where his second brother had hit him.
"Slap!"
This Li Xuewu was a good student. When he was young, he and Li Xuewu went to the same school. All the students in the school knew his second brother was Li Xuewu, so no one dared to bully him, and he had never fought before. After entering university, he was even more of a favored child of heaven, and had even less chance to take action.
This was his first time taking action against someone. He had no experience, unlike Li Xuewu who used his fingers to hit people; he used his whole palm to slap.
This kind of slap was fierce, but it also hurt himself. Li Xuewu didn't seem to know pain now, slapping Zhou Laosan one after another.
Seeing his brother acting like he was possessed, Li Xuewu hugged Li Xuewu, who was crying and running out of strength.
"Alright, alright, don't act like a woman. It's not a big deal."
Li Xuewu, however, cried in his brother's arms. He had really suffered too much grievance and fear that afternoon, and at this moment, he vented it all. His emotions were a bit agitated.
Shen Fang beckoned to the internal affairs officer who was looking over from the office door.
It was already past work hours, and there was no one in the corridor. Those who were off work had left, and those on duty were hiding in their offices. Only the fearless curious baby Ji Yuxiu was peeking from the door.
Seeing the deputy chief beckon to her, Ji Yuxiu ran over.
Shen Fang patted Li Xuewu on the shoulder and said to Li Xuewu: "Let Xuewu and Li Xue go with Yuxiu to wash their faces and check their hands."
Li Xuewu then saw that his brother's hand was already swollen, not just the palm, but the wrist as well.
He straightened his brother and said to his brother and sister: "Go, go check your hands. I'll take you home after this is over."
Li Xuewu felt very embarrassed after crying in his second brother's arms. This was the first time his second brother had comforted him and stood up for him, and he felt warm in his heart, completely forgetting who had kicked and hit him that afternoon.
After Ji Yuxiu winked at Li Xuewu and took Li Xuewu and the other two to the internal affairs room, Old Xing and the others turned around and shouted at the people squatting against the wall again: "Stand up!"
These people were pulled up by the police officers and stood facing the door.
Li Xuewu walked up to the black fatty, took off the 56-style rifle, and said to the black fatty who was squatting with his head held: "You, crawl down!"
The black fatty saw Li Xuewu walk over and knew things were going to be bad. The one who had been dealt with just now was the one who bullied his brother; now it was his turn, the one who had bullied his sister.
Seeing Li Xuewu tell him to crawl down, he didn't dare not to listen. Trembling, he stretched out his hands and crawled on the ground.
Li Xuewu stepped on the black fatty's head and said: "Stretch your hands forward."
The black fatty didn't know what Li Xuewu was going to do, but it definitely wasn't anything good. Trembling, he stretched out his hands, and now his whole body was in a prostrate position.
Li Xuewu stepped on the black fatty's head with his left foot, pressed down hard, and made the fatty's face turn toward his front. He held the muzzle of the 56-style rifle with one hand, looked at the black fatty's hands, and asked as if casually: "Are you left-handed?"
The black fatty didn't know why Li Xuewu asked this, was stunned, and said: "No... no."
Before he could finish the word "no," a roar of "Ah~~~!" came out.
This roar made the line of people squatting raise their heads in unison. When they saw what had happened, they lowered them again in unison, lowering them even deeper, holding their heads even tighter, wishing they could hide their heads in their crotches.
It turned out that as soon as the word "no" came out, Li Xuewu grabbed the rifle body with both hands and slammed the butt of the rifle down on the black fatty's right hand.
Li Xuewu's strength had increased significantly since he woke up in the rear hospital. It wasn't obvious usually, but he was faster than others when riding a bike, fiercer than others when hitting people, faster than others when running, and even his stamina was stronger than others when doing that kind of thing.
No one could argue with this; this ability was personally tested by Lou Jie, who had the most say.
Ji Yuxiu, who hadn't reached the internal affairs room with Li Xuewu and Li Xue, looked back at the roar behind her and widened her eyes instantly.
Li Xuewu and Li Xue also looked back, but saw the fierce side of their second brother that had never been shown before. He was completely different from the warm and sunny person he had just been to them. In the brightest hall in the whole corridor, their second brother was swinging his long rifle and slamming it down on the hand on the ground, one blow after another.
Li Xue knew this was her second brother taking revenge for her, so she covered her mouth, but tears streamed down her face.
Ji Yuxiu took a look, frowned, turned Li Xue's head away with her hand, and said to Li Xuewu and the other two: "Don't look, go inside."
Li Xuewu saw that the black fatty had fainted from pain and stopped. The others who were squatting were scared out of their wits by Li Xuewu.
Who said this guy was originally a small thug on the street?
Have you ever seen a small thug use a 56-style rifle to break someone's hand?
Hey! You saw it today!
Li Xuewu ignored the one on the ground, walked to Zhou Laosan, who was trembling with a swollen face and his head buried in his crotch, and asked: "Who ordered you?"
Zhou Laosan still had the stubbornness of the Third Master Zhou of the East City. After all, he had been mixing on the street for so many years and had seen all kinds of storms. Besides, his brother wouldn't stand by and watch him die.
"My brother is Zhou Dewang."
"I'm asking you, who ordered you to threaten my family?"
"My brother is Zhou Dewang."
Li Xuewu slammed the 56-style rifle on the ground, knocked the blood off the butt of the rifle, and said: "Crawl down, stretch out your hands!"
Hearing this "villain" tell him to crawl down, Zhou Laosan's crotch was almost wet. He looked up at the police officers who were admiring the peeling paint on the wall, and then at the pitch-black front door. Why hadn't his brother come yet? Someone was going to die.
"Crawl down! If you don't crawl down, I'll help you."
Zhou Laosan stretched out his hands tremblingly and crawled on the ground. Li Xuewu still followed the same procedure, stepped on Zhou Laosan's head with his left foot, and asked again as if casually: "You're not left-handed, are you?"
Zhou Laosan wanted to curse. You just tricked Wang the Black, and now you're using the same trick on me? Can I believe you?
But Zhou Laosan, being pressed by the foot on his head, had to look toward the ground with his side face, and saw a rifle butt.
It was a rifle butt covered in bits of flesh and blood, so close to him that even the blood dripping down could be seen clearly.
The rifle butt hadn't hit him yet, but his hands already felt the pain.
Li Xuewu saw Zhou Laosan playing dead and said: "Since you can use both hands, I'll cripple both of your hands."
Zhou Laosan was about to cry. Why hadn't his brother come yet!
As if by divine providence, Zhou Laosan's prayer and plea were answered.
A middle-aged man in a cadre's uniform rode a bicycle to the front of the hall, didn't even park the bike, and walked in with big strides, just in time to hear Li Xuewu's words: "I'll cripple both of your hands."
"Who wants to cripple my brother's hand? Is this how you enforce the law? I want to..."
Zhou Laosan, who was under Li Xuewu's foot, couldn't see who had come, but he recognized his brother's voice and wanted to crawl up, but was stepped on by the foot on his face as soon as he tried.
"Brother, it's me, they..."
Before the person who came in could walk through the threshold of the second gate, he saw the person stepping on his brother lift the long rifle, pull the bolt with a "click," and aim it at him.
"Bang!"
This shot scared the person who came in, and although it hit the ground in front of his feet, his face stung from the cement debris kicked up by the bullet.
Zhou Laosan didn't expect the person stepping on his face to really dare to fire. Looking at the shell casing that fell in front of his eyes, he couldn't say anything to appeal to his brother.
Shen Fang and the others didn't expect Li Xuewu to really dare to fire, frowned, waved at the heads peeking out from both sides of the corridor, and then looked at the person at the door.
"Kneel down! Hold your heads!"
The person at the door, although his face had turned white from Li Xuewu's shot, still tried to remain calm: "You must be Li Xuewu. I am Zhou Dewang. I am at the Grain..."
"Kneel down! Didn't you hear me?"
At this time, Shen Fang was also very supportive. He took out the big 54-style pistol from his waist and shouted at the door: "Kneel down! Hold your heads!"
Seeing his station chief take out a gun, the group of police officers also took out their 54-style pistols and pointed them at the door or at the people against the wall.
The Zhou Dewang at the door saw his face turn from white to red, and then to white again because of the 54-style pistols pointed at him.
He was a big shot in this area, managing the food rations for everyone here. Who didn't try to curry favor with him? Even those from the bureau were polite to him. When had he ever suffered such grievances?
Seeing his brother being stepped on, he was both angry and hateful. He knew his brother was doing evil things under his name outside, but this brother was his mother's heart and soul, and he had to clean up his mess every time.
In the past, when his brother caused trouble, he relied on the prestige of the Grain Bureau to either scare people or pay them off. Even this station had been visited a dozen times, but he didn't know what happened this time; the friends he used to call brothers at the station had all become selfless guardians of the people. There was no other way; if he didn't soften his stance, he might really get a hole drilled in him. A real man knows when to bend and when to stretch. He learned from the people against the wall, held his head with both hands, and slowly squatted down.
"Kneel down!"
Seeing Zhou Dewang squatting with his head held, Shen Fang also put away his 54-style pistol, but Li Xuewu, holding the 56-style rifle, still shouted: "I said, kneel down!"
