Yang Yunpeng, upon seeing Wang Shuren's demeanor, knew that things were not good.

Wang Shuren tossed the tablet computer to him, and he hurriedly caught it, then began to check the video surveillance on the tablet. The time and location in the video were indeed inside the headquarters of Hengfa Group, and the footage clearly showed a person beating up a group of security guards. However, the problem lay with the person's face. Hengfa Group put a lot of effort into security, and the surveillance cameras in the building were ultra-high-definition. The footage clearly showed the person's movements and even the pained expressions on the faces of the beaten guards, but the key issue was that the face of the attacker could not be seen clearly. In the footage, the person's head looked like a light bulb, emitting a bright light, showing only a white blur, with nothing discernible.

Seeing this, Yang Yunpeng immediately felt a chill in his heart. He shifted his gaze to Li Xiangdong, who was sitting at the head of the bed. He saw that the boy was also looking at him, but the mocking smile on his lips was extremely unsettling.

He really underestimated this guy!

Li Xiangdong was certainly not a fool. As a police academy student, he knew that if he caused trouble inside the headquarters of Hengfa Group, the people there would definitely seek help from the police. So, he wouldn't let them catch him off guard. As a police academy student, he was well-versed in how to avoid surveillance. By wearing a light-emitting diode, or simply hanging a string of LED lights around his neck, even the most advanced surveillance equipment would be useless, and his face would be unrecognizable. At the scene, as long as he left no fingerprints or DNA evidence, the police would have no way to catch him.

Yang Yunpeng's heart was a mix of emotions. Damn it, that dog-faced guy, didn't he notice the problem with the video before sending it to him? How could he make him look so foolish?

Being embarrassed wasn't a big deal, but failing to set a trap for Wang Shuren would have serious consequences. Yang Yunpeng's concerns were not misplaced. When he looked up, he saw that Wang Shuren was already looking at him with a very different expression.

"Director Wang..."

Yang Yunpeng was about to say something to explain, but Wang Shuren raised his hand.

"Captain Yang, I believe you should be more familiar with how our police system handles cases than I am. First, the complainant can only report the case to the police station in the jurisdiction where the incident occurred. Even if they report it elsewhere, the police in that area cannot handle the case; they must first notify the local police station to handle it. Second, I have also watched the video you gave me. The footage clearly shows a chaotic scene with severe fighting. Just from the video, it is evident that someone was injured, and the financial loss is at least 50,000 yuan, which constitutes a criminal case. I believe you should be more aware than I am that this is not a case for the Public Security Brigade. You are handling a case across jurisdictions and overstepping your authority. I want to ask you, how did you become the captain of the Public Security Brigade? Do you even know the rules for police investigations, or do you just treat them as nonsense!... What times are we in now? I believe you are more aware than I am. If you handle cases like this, does Chief Qin know about it?"

Wang Shuren spoke slowly, but his words carried a significant amount of pressure. In just a few sentences, the previously confident Yang Yunpeng was already breaking out in a cold sweat. If Wang Shuren focused on these points, he would be in deep trouble.

Wang Shuren was right; the current times were strict about the conduct of civil servants, especially police officers. The two mistakes he made would have been nothing two years ago, but now, if they were exposed, he could be expelled from the police force at worst, or at best, receive a major demerit and a demotion, ruining his career.

Yang Yunpeng was already regretting his decision. If he had known this would happen, he wouldn't have cared about that dog-faced guy's life and risked his own future for him.

At the same time, he was silently cursing Wang Shuren. How could you be so obvious in protecting your own? That guy is clearly the main suspect in this case, but you ignore him and focus on my minor mistakes. Are you even a police officer?

Yang Yunpeng was in a state of confusion, and Zhang Lao and Xiao Qiang were trembling uncontrollably, now realizing the severity of the situation.

Wang Shuren didn't even look at them, then took out his phone, dialed a number, and spoke a few words.

He then waved his hand at Yang Yunpeng and the others. "You can go back now. Someone will contact you for a talk later."

Yang Yunpeng and the others left the ward with ashen faces, knowing that they would face severe internal disciplinary action.

As the three left the ward, Hao Runtong asked Wang Shuren.

"Shuren, this boy is Li Xiangdong, the son of Li Xuecheng and the grandson of Li Wanpeng, a descendant of our police system. This incident was actually caused by the people from Hengfa Group bullying someone from our police system..."

Hao Runtong's words were clear; he wanted Wang Shuren to support Li Xiangdong.

Upon hearing about Li Xiangdong's background, Wang Shuren carefully examined him.

"Li Xuecheng's son? You've grown so much!"

Seeing that Wang Shuren seemed to have some connection with his father, Li Xiangdong quickly seized the opportunity.

"Hello, Uncle Wang..."

This "Uncle Wang" made the usually stern Wang Shuren's expression soften considerably.

"Principal, don't worry about this. We've been keeping an eye on Hengfa Group for a long time. We haven't moved against them yet because we wanted to catch them in a bigger operation. Now that they have bullied the children of our police system, this is unacceptable. If we don't take action, they will think they can do whatever they want in Huanghai!"

Hao Runtong nodded in agreement, and Li Xiangdong felt a weight lift off his shoulders. With Wang Shuren's words, he no longer had to worry about Hengfa Group sending people to seek revenge.
