Logically, when a gang of thugs fails to rob and ends up getting beaten, they would just have to accept their bad luck and would never call the police, as that would be like turning themselves in!
But Cui Shoujing did call the police. Of course, he didn't report the motorcycle gang; instead, he reported Wang Xiaoqiang.
The reason he dared to call the police was that he was well aware of the internal situation of the motorcycle gang. The six members, including his nephew, were not ordinary grassroots people or losers. They all had backgrounds in the provincial capital, with families that were either wealthy or had influential fathers. These young men dropped out of school early and roamed the streets, indulging in a life of debauchery and extravagance. When they ran out of money given by their fathers, they turned to criminal activities, forming the motorcycle gang. Because they all had some background, when they got into trouble and were caught, they were quickly released, or if someone reported them, they would counter-accuse due to insufficient evidence. Now, Cui Shoujing was planning to counter-accuse Wang Xiaoqiang.
Wang Xiaoqiang was completely unharmed, while Cui Wei and Chen Kai were already beaten to a pulp, and the other few were also seriously injured. This was excellent evidence to prove that Wang Xiaoqiang had committed assault. If he was charged with intentional injury, he would have to pay medical expenses. Most importantly, Wang Xiaoqiang had beaten the son of the district police chief, so once he was taken to the police station, they could do whatever they wanted with him.
In Cui Shoujing's view, Wang Xiaoqiang was just a country bumpkin who had come to the provincial capital. What kind of influence could he have here? Although he had some martial arts skills, would he dare to defy the law? Historically, common people never fought against officials, no matter how right they were. A simple farmer couldn't possibly stand up to the district police chief.
"Ah~~ You little punk, if you dare to hit me, ah~~ My dad is the police chief. As long as you don't kill me, I can have you killed in a minute... ah~~" Under Wang Xiaoqiang's assault, Chen Kai clutched his head and screamed, issuing threats.
Wang Xiaoqiang didn't see Cui Shoujing, so he thought this incident was just a group of hooligans who, upon seeing Xia Guifang, had the idea to kidnap her. In a fit of anger, he beat up Cui Wei and Chen Kai, but he didn't expect the hooligan to claim he was the son of the police chief. Wang Xiaoqiang didn't really believe it, but even if he was the son of the police chief, he still beat him up until their heads were tucked into their crotches.
Xia Guifang had never encountered such a situation before. Although Wang Xiaoqiang eventually dealt with the gang, she was still afraid, especially since the hooligan claimed to be the son of the police chief. She pulled Wang Xiaoqiang and said, "Xiaoqiang, let's go, it's over!"
Wang Xiaoqiang turned and saw that Xia Guifang's face was pale, and her body was trembling. He stopped beating the two and warned them, "I hope I never see you again, or it won't be so easy next time!"
With that, Wang Xiaoqiang took Xia Guifang and left.
"Xiaoqiang, you're really that good!" After turning onto a busier street, Xia Guifang relaxed a bit, but she still clung tightly to Wang Xiaoqiang, who held her as they walked forward. "My dad said you could handle four of Guo Biao's gang, and I didn't believe it, but now I do. When did you learn martial arts, and why didn't you tell me?"
"I practiced on my own!" Wang Xiaoqiang replied casually, his eyes scanning the surroundings. Leaving the gang didn't mean they were safe. He had a feeling this wouldn't be over so easily. He had planned to call the police, but he gave up because it was too much trouble.
Xia Guifang, leaning against Wang Xiaoqiang and feeling his strong presence, said happily, "So you're self-taught. By the way, Xiaoqiang, how did you get so good with a slingshot?"
Wang Xiaoqiang said proudly, "Haha, Xiaofang, you forget, I used to love playing with slingshots. I could hit a sparrow in the sky, let alone two people!"
Just as they were about to reach the Yijia Hotel, a police car marked with the word "Police" came roaring from behind, swerved, and screeched to a stop in front of them. It looked more like a gang car than a police car.
Xia Guifang was so scared that she clung tightly to Wang Xiaoqiang's arm.
Wang Xiaoqiang patted her hand to reassure her.
The police car stopped, and two police officers got out, walking aggressively up to Wang Xiaoqiang and Xia Guifang. The taller one showed his badge and said bluntly, "We are from the West District Police Station. You are suspected of intentional injury. Please come with us to the police station for investigation!"
Seeing this, Wang Xiaoqiang began to believe the hooligan's words. It seemed that the hooligan's father was indeed the police chief. Otherwise, they wouldn't have dared to openly kidnap on the street or report the crime.
"Are you going to arrest me?" Wang Xiaoqiang asked coldly, showing a hint of weariness.
The tall police officer smiled with a hint of disdain and amusement. "Not an arrest, just assisting with our investigation. Of course, if you really did assault someone, it won't be just an arrest; you might end up in jail..."
These two were trusted by the district police chief, Chen Tianpeng. They had just received a report that Chen Tianpeng's son, Chen Kai, had been beaten. Though they didn't quite believe it, they couldn't afford to be negligent, so they rushed to the scene. They saw Chen Kai and another young man, Cui Wei, lying on the ground, their faces bruised and swollen. Seeing that the chief's son had indeed been beaten, they immediately took Chen Kai and followed him to find Wang Xiaoqiang.
"Is that so?" Wang Xiaoqiang countered with a cold laugh. "If someone is willing to go to jail, I don't mind being a witness!" As he spoke, he glanced at the police car. As expected, the hooligan who claimed to be the son of the police chief was in the car. Because of his previous experience with Guo Biao, he quickly anticipated this.
Wang Xiaoqiang's composure surprised the two police officers, and his words made them smile strangely. It seemed this country bumpkin was quite tough, but once they got to the police station, he wouldn't be so tough.
"Let's go, we'll talk at the police station." The tall police officer nodded.
Wang Xiaoqiang turned to Xia Guifang and said, "Xiaofang, go back to the hotel. I'll go with them and be back soon..."
"No, I'm going with you!" Xia Guifang clung tightly to Wang Xiaoqiang's arm and said, "I'll be a witness to prove your innocence!"
The two police officers looked at Xia Guifang, their eyes revealing a meaning only men would understand. They thought, "Hmph, you go be a witness, just don't get yourself into trouble."
Chen Kai was known for his lecherous behavior, and many innocent girls had suffered at his hands. Since she wanted to be a witness, they wouldn't stop her. The tall police officer smiled playfully and said, "Then let's all go!"
Wang Xiaoqiang was worried that Xia Guifang might be in danger if she went alone, so he agreed.
Sure enough, once they got in the police car, Wang Xiaoqiang saw the hooligan who claimed to be the son of the police chief, as well as the red-haired hooligan. After Wang Xiaoqiang and Xia Guifang got in, the two hooligans smiled smugly and threatened, "Little punk, you hit someone and think you can run? Run now, how come you can't run? Wait until we get to the police station, and you'll see what's coming."
Looking at Chen Kai's ugly face, Wang Xiaoqiang thought of Guo Biao. The two incidents were too similar, like a cycle. He smiled disdainfully and responded to Chen Kai as he had to Guo Biao, "We'll see who ends up in jail, but I hope you don't regret it."
"I regret it? Ha ha, that's funny. I told you, my dad is the police chief..."
"Enough, both of you, shut up." Chen Kai was interrupted by the tall police officer, who seemed to be reminding him. However, Chen Kai ignored the officer and lowered his voice, saying with a sinister smile, "There's no such word as 'regret' in my dictionary. You'll regret it, but it's too late. Just wait for jail."
Hearing the word "jail," Xia Guifang's body trembled. Wang Xiaoqiang hugged her shoulder to reassure her. At this point, Wang Xiaoqiang believed that the hooligan was indeed the son of the district police chief. It seemed he would be at a disadvantage at the police station, and with Xia Guifang following, he needed to be extra cautious. He took out his phone, found a somewhat unfamiliar number, and called it.
