What happened tonight was an extremely heinous kidnapping case.
At this time, not only were newspapers working late into the night to publish their news, but television stations were also broadcasting the news.
Because reporters photographed Nie Zhao leaving the police station in a Rolls-Royce, even though the police knew he left in a Bentley, given the limited surveillance coverage, the fact that only Nie's family was present at the scene of the kidnapping, and that the kidnappers had already been killed, the right to interpret the entire matter belongs to the Nie family. Therefore, the definition of today's sudden case is: the richest man has been kidnapped!
The two senior police sergeants waiting there were Commissioner of Police Lei Shijun and Chief of the Flying Tigers Narcotics and Riot Control Bureau, Huo Qi. They were accompanied by a group of heavily armed officers, waiting to enter the scene.
Logically speaking, people of their level shouldn't be qualified to speak directly with the head of the richest family.
But when the car window rolls down, it means the richest man is going to greet them.
Inspector Lei stepped forward and bowed: "I heard there was a kidnapping. Mr. Nie, are you alright? Are you hurt?"
Nie Zhao seemed to be in a good mood; he smiled and said, "It's alright."
“That’s great. We received a report from someone. Here’s the warrant for assistance in the investigation…” Inspector Lei said, pulling out a search warrant.
Nie Zhao had no intention of greeting these people; he only stopped the car when Chen Rou asked him to.
He frowned and said, "Just hand it over to the person in charge of the dock."
He looked at his wife and saw that she was still looking out the window. Although he didn't know why, he figured it was just stalling for time, so he said, "Thank you all for making the trip in the middle of the night. I'll arrange for someone to deliver supper tonight."
Superintendent Lei was flattered and greeted all the officers with a smile, "Aren't you going to thank Mr. Nie?"
"Thank you, Mr. Nie." All the police officers bowed.
At this moment, Chen Rou turned around and patted the back of the chair. Ram immediately understood, opened the window, and was about to leave.
But another sergeant, Huo Qi Huo Sir, who was still relatively young, actually reached out to block the window: "Mr. Nie, there are witnesses who say that you were not only kidnapped, but also fell off the highway, but you don't seem to be injured."
His question was rather presumptuous, and he was clearly questioning the veracity of Nie Zhao's kidnapping.
This indirectly proves that he is a responsible and highly professional police officer.
But in Hong Kong today, what's needed to be a police officer isn't professional skills, but rather interpersonal skills and being perceptive.
So Lei Sir's expression changed drastically. While trying to stop him, Song Yuanchao, who was already under the car, pried Huo Sir's hand off, turned his head and pointed at Huo Sir as he backed away, glancing at the car out of the corner of his eye. Once he was out of the police's sight, he turned around and jumped into the car.
In the blink of an eye, three luxury cars filed out and sped away.
Poor Huo Sir, who was in the right to uphold justice, ended up getting a cold shoulder for nothing.
I imagine he'll be feeling down for a long time.
...
As the car started moving, Mr. Nie's mood returned to its former beauty.
This time, he wasn't just making conversation; he was keenly aware that Chen Rou had something on her mind and needed to ask her something.
But just as he was about to ask, Chen Rou patted Song Yuanchao: "Brother Song, remember that tall police officer who was standing behind Inspector Lei just now?"
Song Yuanchao turned around and said, "He's about 180cm tall, has a buzz cut, single eyelids, and his police officer number is 00."
Ram gave him a thumbs up, saying his memory was really good.
Chen Rou also said, "Brother Song, you're good. I only kept an eye on the people, but you wrote down all the police badge numbers."
Song Yuanchao tried to salvage his reputation for his poor performance today, saying, "My shooting skills and combat abilities have both declined a bit. I'll practice an extra hour every night from now on to try and catch up."
The reason he was beaten to a pulp by Gui Tou Rong was because he had experienced war, a battle between two armies, which involved teamwork and combat. Gui Tou Rong's style was kung fu, hand-to-hand combat, and it was only effective in the lawless Kowloon.
His reflection was also correct; since he was going to switch from a soldier to a bodyguard, he did need to learn some close-quarters combat skills.
Chen Rou nodded, then patted the back of the seat and said to Ram, "Pull over."
He then spoke to Song Yuanchao in Cantonese, saying, "That police officer was carrying a gun in the protocol team during the day and kept staring at our boss. I just saw him carrying an evidence bag, and if I'm not mistaken, Gui Tou Rong's boss is inside."
Before she could finish speaking, Song Yuanchao immediately said, "I made such a huge mistake today, I actually forgot about Gui Tou Rong's big brother!"
He described it to Ram again in his Chinglish: They forgot a key piece of evidence, the cell phone.
Ram's face darkened upon hearing this, and he turned around to see what Chen Rou had to say.
Unlike their previous operation against Xiang Tiange, this was their first time taking action, so catching the opponent off guard made things much easier.
But today was their second operation, and Gui Tou Rong was already on guard. In addition, his methods were indeed formidable, so Nie Zhao's highly paid subordinates could only barely win. In the cleanup, there were bound to be oversights and omissions.
Song Yuanchao and Ram both thought they had made a mistake and were nervous for a moment.
But Liang Lisheng didn't mention the cell phone, nor did Chen Rou. Afterwards, they both tacitly avoided looking for it, not because they were negligent, but because the case still needed to be investigated.
Yu Zhengrong is the person in all of Hong Kong who most wants Nie Zhao dead, and he is also their strongest rival and their ultimate target.
With Gui Tou Rong knocked out, they are now facing Yu Sir directly.
Chen Rou then said to Song Yuanchao, "Go and follow that police officer later, because he is Yu Zhengrong's confidant. But don't act rashly. Keep an eye on him first. I'll handle when to make a move and how to deal with him."
