Chapter 33

"What?"

Li Ming was startled awake by the words "The municipal bureau has sent people," and he stopped struggling with Li Dongmei, rushing to open the door of the interrogation room. However, Li Dongmei had completely lost her mind and, with her hands still being held by Li Ming, she opened her mouth wide and bit down on Li Ming's neck.

If she had bitten him, it could have caused a major artery to bleed out, so Li Ming, not daring to take it lightly, quickly pulled his arm back to protect his neck.

"Ah!"

Li Dongmei bit down hard on Li Ming's arm, causing him to shout in pain. The intense pain spurred Li Ming to burst with even greater strength, and he swung his arm, sending Li Dongmei flying backward.

Li Dongmei's head hit the wall with a dull thud, and she slumped over, unconscious.

This was the second time she had fainted today.

"Hisss—"

Li Ming looked at the two rows of tooth marks on his blood-soaked arm, his face dark and terrifying. However, he still understood that this was not Li Dongmei's intention, and the real culprit was Lin Fan!

Thinking of this, Li Ming turned to glare at Lin Fan, his anger so intense that he wanted to kill him. He subtly reached for the gun at his waist.

On the way back, Li Ming had learned from Li Dongmei that Lin Fan was very skilled, so he had brought his service weapon as a precaution.

Now, Li Ming was thoroughly enraged by Lin Fan and had decided to kill him. Since the surveillance had already been turned off, he could shoot Lin Fan without leaving any evidence. He could claim that Lin Fan had tried to grab the gun and escape, and that he had acted in self-defense, which would be easy to explain given the injuries on both him and Li Dongmei.

"Swish!"

Li Ming suddenly raised his head, his eyes bloodshot and filled with unmasked killing intent, especially with his face covered in blood, making him look even more ferocious.

"Heh heh, you want to kill me?" Lin Fan sensed Li Ming's intent to kill but was not afraid at all. He asked calmly.

"That's right! I'll shoot you, and then I'll say you tried to grab my gun and escape. I acted in self-defense." Li Ming licked his lips and said in a low voice, "I think, with my position, it won't be hard to make this stick, right?"

"You're playing with fire." Lin Fan narrowed his eyes and said calmly, pushing Qi Qi behind him.

Facing the疯狂的李铭, 林凡的表情几乎没有变化。如果同样的事情发生在昨天之前，林凡确实没有什么对策，但现在，这都不算什么。

"Ha ha, you're still defiant at the brink of death. I know you're a martial artist, but can you be faster than a bullet? Can your body withstand firearms? Even if you break free from the handcuffs, what can you do with me holding a gun? Die, you bastard!" Li Ming laughed loudly, drew his gun, and aimed it at Lin Fan.

"Bang bang bang!"

At that moment, the police outside the door knocked loudly and shouted, "Chief! Director Gu has come, and he wants to see you!"

"Director Gu?" Li Ming muttered, then suddenly came to his senses. In Longcheng, who else could be called Director Gu? Only the Chief of the Municipal Bureau, Gu Chengyuan!

The Chief of the Municipal Bureau was not someone a mere police station chief could compare to. Even if Li Ming had the nerve, he wouldn't dare do anything foolish under the eyes of such a high-ranking official. So, Li Ming immediately reined in his killing intent, glared at Lin Fan, put the gun back in its holster, straightened his clothes, and opened the door of the interrogation room.

"Chief, Director Gu... " The police officer outside the door, seeing the door open, started to speak but was immediately stunned by Li Ming's blood-covered face. His expression changed drastically, and he quickly supported Li Ming, saying, "Chief! What happened to you?"

Li Ming, in pain, pointed his gun at Lin Fan inside the interrogation room and said through gritted teeth, "This... prisoner tried to grab my gun and escape! I was injured in the struggle, and my sister was also hurt. Call an ambulance and get some people to deal with him! I want him to suffer more than death!"

Li Ming's voice trembled with extreme anger and pain. He hated Lin Fan so much that he wanted to flay him alive, but given the current situation, he couldn't act himself. So, he arranged for his subordinates to torture Lin Fan to vent his anger.

But just as the police officer was about to agree, a cold voice came from the corridor corner:

"Who do you want to suffer more than death?"

Li Ming looked over and saw a middle-aged man in a well-fitted black suit walking out from the corner. The man had a square face, a stern expression, and sharp eyes. He walked with a powerful gait, exuding a strong aura. Behind him was another man in a suit, who was also muscular.

The man was none other than Gu Chengyuan and his driver, Xiao Liu.

As soon as Gu Chengyuan appeared, he immediately overpowered Li Ming's aura. He walked to the door of the interrogation room, glanced inside, and then looked at Li Ming with a stern face, saying harshly, "Li Ming, have you become a tyrant in this Linjiang District Police Station? You talk about making someone suffer more than death. Anyone who knows better knows this is a police station, but those who don't might think they've walked into your private residence! You are lawless and break the law!"

"Director... Director Gu..." Li Ming, seeing the man, broke out in a cold sweat and stammered.

Li Ming didn't meet Gu Chengyuan often, but he had heard about his character. Gu Chengyuan was a real soldier who had been through battles and artillery fire, known for his integrity and ruthlessness, even earning the nickname "Iron-Blooded Chief" from his subordinates. Now that Gu Chengyuan had suddenly come, Li Ming was sure it wasn't for anything good. His heart was in turmoil, unsure of Gu Chengyuan's purpose and whether his actions had reached the ears of this "Iron-Blooded Chief."

Gu Chengyuan sneered and said in a strange tone, "I didn't expect you, Chief Li, to still recognize me. I feel truly honored."

Li Ming, hearing this, broke out in a cold sweat, his fear intensifying. He quickly smiled and said, "Director... Director Gu, what are you saying? You are my superior, and I will always remember your guidance and teachings."

"Slap!"

Gu Chengyuan slapped Li Ming's left cheek, shouting, "Hmph! You talk well, but do you really think no one knows about the despicable things you've done behind closed doors? I tell you, based on your actions over the years, I am going to remove you from your position right now. From this moment on, you are no longer the Chief of the Linjiang District Police Station. You will come with me to face the organization's investigation!"

"Thud!"

Gu Chengyuan's words hit Li Ming like a hammer. The words "remove you from your position" made Li Ming panic. Being in the system, he knew what these words meant for him, but he couldn't understand why the Chief of the Municipal Bureau would suddenly take action against him without any warning!

Despite his fear and uncertainty about Gu Chengyuan's intentions, driven by his survival instinct, Li Ming still asked, "Director Gu, there must be a reason to remove me from my position. I, Li Ming, have not achieved much, but I have at least been diligent in maintaining the local security. Why are you removing me from my position just like that?"

Gu Chengyuan waved to his driver and sneered, "Why? You're not convinced? Alright, Xiao Liu, let Chief Li understand clearly!"

Xiao Liu walked out from behind Gu Chengyuan, holding a file folder, and threw it at Li Ming. Li Ming quickly caught the folder and opened it to look inside.

After just a few seconds, Li Ming was drenched in sweat!
