Chapter 39: Release Him Immediately

  Han Li glanced at Du Yufei and asked: "Little Du, weren't you transferred to the special case group by the Municipal Bureau? Why are you back?"

  "Reporting to the director, I'm back to get some materials." Du Yufei replied loudly.

  Han Li asked: "Why did you bring the materials and run to the inquiry room?"

  Du Yu Fei said: "Oh, I heard Old Li say that he just brought back someone who is very good at fighting, so I came over to take a look."

  "Huh?" Han Li heard and his eyes rolled, dryly saying: "Little Du, take a look, isn't he from the thieving gang?"

  Recently, a gang of thieves has been committing multiple crimes in Qingyuan City. The municipal bureau has set up a special task force to crack the case with all its might. If they can catch any members of the gang by chance, it will also be considered a meritorious act.

  Du Yufei indeed came back to retrieve materials, after entering the door, she unintentionally heard Old Li and Xiao Wang's discussion mentioning Chu Tian Shu's name, she was shocked, and quickly asked Old Li, who didn't say much, only nodded towards the interrogation room, telling her that Director Han was personally interrogating.

  Du Yu Fei suddenly felt something was off and hastily ran to the interrogation room door, shouting "Report!"

  She walked forward, Du Yufei glanced at Chu Tian Shu with a surprised expression and exclaimed: "Ah, how is it you?"

  Han Li also walked over and asked: "Are you really a member of the theft gang?"

  Du Yu Fei smiled and shook her head, saying: "Director, no, he... is a friend of mine."

  "Your friend?" Han Li stared at Du Yufei with a puzzled gaze, suddenly understanding that this guy had two accomplices who ran away, and Du Yufei might be the reinforcement they brought.

  Du Yufei nodded and smiled: "Director, it's not too serious, is it?"

  Han Li looked at Chu Tian Shu and then at Du Yu Fei, his face stern, saying: "Little Du, don't forget, we are people's police, we can't do things that pervert the law for personal gain."

  Du Yu Fei was suddenly scolded by Han Li, and her face couldn't hold up.

  Han Li continued to persuade: "Little Du, you are a good police officer who knows right from wrong. In this day and age, who doesn't have three or four friends? If everyone speaks up for someone, then our work can't be carried out."

  Chu Tian Shu watched as Han Li pompously lectured Du Yu Fei, and felt a bad taste in his heart. He loudly said: "Forget it, Officer Du, don't ask him for anything, it's useless. I'm the one who provoked Hao Shuang."

  "Hao Shuang?" Du Yufei secretly worried, no wonder Han Li wanted to interrogate him personally. In the jurisdiction of Beihuxian Sub-bureau, who dared to provoke this young master?

  Han Li often helped Hao Shuang wipe his butt, and Du Yufei also knew a thing or two about it.

  Seeing Du Yufei's change in expression, Han Li dryly laughed and asked: "Little Du, what kind of friend is he to you?"

  He means it's clear that he is hinting at Du Yu Fei. Are you worth offending the director for this guy?

  "He... " Du Yu Fei hesitated for a moment, then gritted her teeth and said: "He's my boyfriend."

  Chu Tian Shu was overwhelmed with excitement and emotion.

  "Boyfriend?" Han Li's eyes widened in surprise.

  If Chu Tian Shu is really Du Yu Fei's boyfriend, it would be even more difficult to deal with him, and if they still want to get rid of Chu Tian Shu in a big way, the difficulty will increase greatly, at least not too openly.

  "Du Yufei, even if he's your boyfriend, can't bully others just because of that." Han Li's tone softened, but didn't let go of the implication towards Chu Tian Shu.

  "Director, you're absolutely right. No matter whose friend it is, they can't bully others with their power. Alright, I'll accompany the Director to investigate." After finishing speaking, Du Yufei sat down.

  Han Li angrily said: "Xiao Du, he is your boyfriend, you should avoid him."

  Du Yufei smiled and said: "Director, you're not married yet, so we don't count as relatives. Let's just pretend we don't know each other."

  "No way, since you know him, you must recuse yourself." Han Li said sternly.

  Du Yufei insisted: "Then we all know Hao Shuang, shouldn't we all recuse ourselves?"

  Han Li was speechless for a moment, but then he thought again, no way, Du Yufei was transferred to the special case group before, she had been working at the police station all along, hadn't heard that she had a boyfriend.

  Thinking of this, Han Li no longer tangled with Du Yu Fei, turned his head and asked Chu Tian Shu: "Alright, you said, what's her name?"

  "Du Yu Fei."

  "Date of birth?"

  ……

  "What's your police ID number?"

  ……

  "Address?"

  ……

  "Graduated from which university? ... Time of participation in work? ..."

  A string of questions, Chu Tian Shu couldn't answer any of them.

  Han Li stood up and sneered: "Du Yufei, is this your boyfriend?"

  Du Yu Fei's face turned red and white, she lowered her head and couldn't speak.

  "Du Yufei, do you know what kind of nature this is? This is perjury." Han Li immediately became spirited after catching Du Yufei's lie. He viciously said: "You think he's handsome, right? You're eager to throw yourself into his arms. Honestly, you're going to lose the face of all police officers."

  Chu Tian Shu saw that Du Yu Fei's eyes were shining brightly, and his heart suddenly became anxious. He called out: "What do you have against me? Don't make things difficult for Officer Du."

  Han Li still wouldn't give up and viciously said: "Du Yufei, did you hear that? Go do what you need to do, don't be like a lovesick fool who can't move her legs when she sees a handsome guy."

  Du Yufei was scolded by Han Li like this, and she couldn't bear it anymore. With tears in her eyes, she ran out of the interrogation room.

  Chu Tian Shu's heart felt like it had been stabbed with a knife, and her eyes couldn't help but become moist.

  At this time, a young police officer stood outside the interrogation room and shouted: "Director, phone call, looking for you."

  It was late at night when the phone call came in, probably still trying to persuade Chu Tian Shu.

  Han Li picked up the phone again and said impatiently: "Little Wang, tell him to call back later, I'm still interrogating the prisoner."

  Xiao Wang hastily said: "Director, it's Director Hao calling, he wants you to answer the phone immediately."

  "Director Hao?" Han Li threw the desk lamp in his hand on the table and said: "Xiao Wang, this kid refused to confess honestly, you first put him in handcuffs, I'll finish the phone call and come back to continue the interrogation."

  "Yes." The young officer responded loudly and promptly handcuffed Chu Tian Shu to the chair.

  It's done. Hao Jiancheng even asked about it himself. Chu Tian Shu's heart tightened: whether it was good or bad fortune, if it was bad fortune, he couldn't avoid it and could only grit his teeth and endure.

  "Alas, it seems that Hao Shuang has suffered a great loss." Han Li thought gloomily as he walked out of the interrogation room and ran to his desk to grab the phone. With a respectful face, he said: "Director Hao, hello, what are your instructions?"

  "What the hell. Han Li, I'm asking you, didn't your department just catch someone named Chu Tian Shu?" On the other end of the phone, Hao Jian Cheng sounded like he had eaten explosives, his tone was explosive.

  Han Li was taken aback and immediately said: "Yes, Commissioner Hao, I am interrogating him personally."

  "Release him immediately." Hao Jiancheng said in a commanding tone.

  "Hao Ju, he's involved in a case of injuring someone. We're still investigating and gathering evidence, so we can't release him for now." Han Li didn't know what Hao Jiancheng meant, but wanted to express his loyalty.

  "I know what's going on here. Release him immediately." Hao Jiancheng said bluntly.

  "But, Director Hao, Hao Shuang..."

  "Han Li, I understand your intention, but this time you've caused trouble. To be honest with you, this is an order from the municipal bureau, don't make me unhappy. Release him immediately." After Hao Jiancheng hung up the phone, Han Li's ears were still ringing.

  Han Li thought to himself, no wonder that kid knew there were tigers on the mountain but still insisted on heading towards it. It turns out he has a connection with the municipal government? Hao Jiancheng is not someone I can afford to mess with, why would I provoke him?

  Thinking of this, Han Li called Officer Li in.

  Chu Tian Shu was still lost in thought when the door of the inquiry room opened.

  Officer Li walked in with a smile on his face, saw that Chu Tian Shu had been handcuffed, and then asked the young officer with a serious expression: "Little Wang, what's going on here?"

  "This is the Dean's order."

  "Open it up."

  Xiao Wang shook his head and opened the handcuffs.

  Officer Li smiled and said: "Young man, the matter has been investigated clearly. It was those few kids who caused trouble. Go sign on the mediation letter and you can leave."

  The director had already greeted him, and the matter was not big, so Officer Li quickly closed the case.

  Hao Shuang refused to give up and continued to cause trouble, refusing to sign the mediation agreement. Officer Li was at his wit's end.

  Han Li walked out of the office.

  Hao Shuang couldn't care less that Chu Tian Shu was still there, and ran over, shouting angrily: "Uncle Han, why did you let him go? Does that mean we were beaten by him for nothing?"

  "Go home and ask your dad."

  Hao Shuang was stunned, and had no choice but to sign reluctantly, then left with Bao Ge and the others.

  Han Li stopped Chu Tian Shu, calling him aside alone, wanting to get closer and eliminate misunderstandings. He said: "Little Chu, you are a cultured person, don't be on the same level as those little rascals, earlier I was just joking with you, don't mind it."

  "Director Han, since you mentioned this, I'd like to remind you that as a police officer, you can't just joke around casually. If things go wrong, you might end up locking yourself up." After finishing speaking, Chu Tian Shu threw a glance at Han Li's embarrassed face and walked out of the police station in confusion. Just a few steps outside the door, she saw Ning Xin and Wei Shi Jie standing by the roadside.

  Hao Shuang and a few others were still gesticulating and scolding.

  Suddenly, an olive green military off-road vehicle screeched to a halt at the side of the road.

  This is the Hummer explosion-proof command vehicle, with an extremely fierce appearance, the whole car's shape is powerful, majestic and heroic, absolutely dashing.

  Chu Tian Shu didn't quite understand cars, but seeing its shape and aura, he couldn't help but feel a sense of shock.

  A soldier in his late 20s, with a short haircut, wearing camouflage uniform without a hat, came down from the driver's cabin, with a look of anxiety and anger on his face.

  People are like cars, and cars are like people, equally domineering.

  Close behind him were four young soldiers.

  Ning Xin saw the man leading the team and exclaimed excitedly: "Ma Li, Ma Li, over here, over here."

  Ma Li also saw Ning Xin, and with a wave of his hand, four soldiers rushed over like wolves and surrounded Ning Xin and the others.

  "Are you all right?" Mali asked anxiously, looking Ningxi up and down.

  "I'm fine."

  "Who did it?"

  "It's them!" Ning Xin pointed at Hao Shuang and his gang with her small hand.

  Without waiting for orders, four soldiers rushed forward and blocked Haos' path.
