Chapter 128 A desperate gamble, killing to silence witnesses



Director Wang looked at the corner of the corridor, a quiet corner, just like the one he saw every day.

On the other side of the corner was a row of detention cells. The people they brought back for investigation would be held in this row of detention cells, but recently there were not many people to investigate, only Cheng Xiao Kui.

He snorted and said, "Look at your cowardice! You must have been drinking last night and your eyes were playing tricks on you, that's why you saw some zombie."

I told you all a long time ago, no drinking while on duty, no drinking! But you all ignored me!

Old Ma was being berated by Director Wang. He stammered, "Director... I did drink a little last night, but only a little. How could half an ounce of wine make me drunk? With my alcohol tolerance, I can drink at least a pound!"

Besides, what if I'm drunk and my vision is blurry? What about Xiao Zhang and Xiao Li? They've been missing all night.

Director Wang then remembered Xiao Zhang and Xiao Li, and he looked around.

Because of the zombie incident last night, Old Ma woke up everyone from the Investigation Bureau in the middle of the night.

However, although nobody believed in zombies, the thought still sent chills down their spines, so they decided to return to the station at dawn.

However, Xiao Zhang and Xiao Li were not among the people around...

Thinking of this, Director Wang's expression changed slightly, and suddenly he realized something.

He exclaimed urgently, "Oh no! Something's happened! Everyone, come with me!"

He took the lead and ran ahead.

When everyone saw the bureau chief running forward, they immediately followed. If the bureau chief wasn't afraid, what were they afraid of with so many of them?

There were about seventy or eighty of them in total!

Director Wang rushed to the corner of the corridor. The corridor was quiet, without a sound.

He slowed his pace and walked towards Cheng Xiaokui's room.

When he arrived at Cheng Xiao Kui's room, he was surprised to see Cheng Xiao Kui standing in front of the iron gate, waving at him.

Cheng Xiaokui smiled sweetly and said, "Director Wang, we meet again! How did you sleep last night?"

When Director Wang saw Cheng Xiao Kui in full view, his gloomy expression softened slightly.

He didn't believe in zombies or ghosts!

He had just thought someone was pretending to be a zombie and had rescued Cheng Xiao Kui!

If Cheng Xiao Kui gets lost, he will bear a huge responsibility!

Now that Cheng Xiaokui was standing safely in front of him, inside the iron bars of the detention cell, his heart finally settled down.

He asked, "You didn't run away?! What about the zombies last night?"

Cheng Xiao Kui said, "It's fine here, why would I run away? If I run away, won't I become a fugitive?!"

Director Wang snorted coldly, then suddenly he thought of something else.

Cold sweat instantly broke out on his forehead. He turned back and asked, "You're still alive... Where are Xiao Zhang and Xiao Li?"

Last night, their plan was for Xiao Zhang and Xiao Li to put a heart-inducing powder in Cheng Xiao Kui's food.

The powdered medicine is undetectable once dissolved, but if ingested, it can trigger heart disease.

Even if Cheng Xiao Kui had a strong heart, it was useless.

If Cheng Xiao Kui doesn't eat or take the medication that triggers her heart attack, then Xiao Zhang and Xiao Li will be responsible for sending Cheng Xiao Kui on her way.

But clearly, everything is different from what was planned last night...

Even if Cheng Xiao Kui survives by accident, what about Xiao Zhang and Xiao Li?

Cheng Xiao Kui smiled and said, "You mean Xiao Zhang and Xiao Li? They're right here!"

She darted to the side, avoiding the iron gate, so that Director Wang could see inside.

Director Wang immediately spotted Xiao Zhang and Xiao Zhang sitting on the ground.

The two men had their arms tied and their mouths stuffed with rags; their faces were filled with tears.

The veins on Director Wang's forehead bulged instantly. "You...you have some nerve! You dare to arrest people from our Investigation Bureau!"

He yanked hard on the iron gate, an action intended to provoke anger, but to everyone's surprise, the gate was pulled open!

He looked with surprise at the iron gate he had just ripped open, and the next second he rushed into the room.

He shouted to the people behind him, "Come in with me! Seize Cheng Xiao Kui! Cheng Xiao Kui has committed an act of insubordination, daring to kidnap an officer from the Investigation Bureau!!"

As he raised his arm and shouted, the people behind him rushed into the room just like him.

However, just as he took a step forward, his arm was suddenly grabbed and twisted behind his back.

Director Wang cried out in pain, "My arm, my arm is twisted! If you twist it any more, my arm will fall off!"

Cheng Xiao Kui stood at the doorway and said to the people outside, "Your bureau chief is in my hands! All of you, get back!"

No one dared to charge forward; everyone retreated in unison.

Director Wang shouted, "Who dares to kidnap me? I'm the director!"

Si Muyang said with a sneer, "You've got this straight, is this kidnapping? This is called apprehending a criminal!"

Chief Wang, Xiao Li and Xiao Zhang both confessed last night! In a little while, in front of the higher-ups, the two of them will be escorting Chief Zhang and you!

Are you trying to confess, or are you trying to face severe punishment?! It wasn't easy for you to get to this position of bureau chief, was it? And you actually helped Chief Zhang commit murder! Murder is a capital offense!

Cold sweat instantly broke out on Director Wang's forehead. No matter how much he tried to remain calm, he couldn't stay composed.

He didn't expect that both Xiao Zhang and Xiao Li would confess!

Suddenly, a fierce glint appeared in his eyes, and he said, "Don't forget where you are! This is the Investigation Bureau! You think you can leave here alive?!"

Men! Charge! Arrest them both!

Si Muyang knowingly broke the law; he stormed into the investigation bureau trying to rescue the criminal Cheng Xiao Kui! Both of them are guilty of a capital offense!

"Guards! Break in, seize them, and kill them without mercy! Leave no survivors!"

Cheng Xiao Kui immediately kicked the iron gate shut, and the locked iron gate blocked the people outside.

She said with a sneer, "Director Wang, you have quite the nerve, even trying to kill Si Muyang."

Director Wang said coldly, "What Si Muyang? Who is he? All I know is that criminals have broken in and are trying to rescue the prisoners!"

You two are guilty of a capital offense, you're doomed! You'll never leave the Investigation Bureau, not even in death.

Look how many people are in my Investigation Bureau! You two think you can escape? Hahaha!

He knew very well what he had done, and that Xiao Zhang and Xiao Li could expose them and help them atone for their crimes.

Even if he exposes more crimes, he will not be able to atone for his crimes through meritorious service.

The bureau chief is definitely incompetent, and he should be dead by now!

Rather than this, we might as well fight to the death!

As long as Cheng Xiao Kui and Si Mu Yang are both dead, he can make up whatever story he wants, like saying that Si Mu Yang broke into the Investigation Bureau to rescue Cheng Xiao Kui.

Their comrades from the Investigation Bureau fought Si Muyang to the death, but unfortunately, these two were extremely wicked and wanted to kill their Investigation Bureau members. In the end, they were bravely killed by their comrades from the Investigation Bureau!

If such a story were fabricated, the most his superiors would do is criticize his subordinates for not leaving any survivors and give him a major demerit.

But he kept his position as bureau chief, as well as his life and fortune.
