Chapter 260 Arrest Operation
The bureau's arrangement for Chen Chuan was just an assessment, but the matter was not entirely placed on him. In order to ensure that Xiong Jianyi could be captured, a team was also dispatched at the same time, which was also the original capture team.
This team has been keeping an eye on this person since they received the news that Xiong Jianyi was about to return to Dashun.
However, the team members were not satisfied with the fact that a newcomer was arranged to carry out the arrest this time.
Although this kind of thing is considered a common practice in the bureau, no one wants to actually encounter it, because newcomers mean lack of experience, unreliability, and too many uncertainties.
Moreover, of the students supported by the Bureau over the years, almost none of them performed well right from the start. It wasn't because they were incapable, but because many of them were very careful about their own safety and wouldn't rush into danger.
This is actually a smart choice, but it won't be highly praised.
So when they heard the news, many team members complained, saying that they had to be nannies again, but they were skillfully calmed down by team leader Li Fusheng.
"Captain Li!"
A team member hurried over and handed Li Fusheng a telegram. "We've received news that Xiong Jianyi will arrive at Jiyang Port on Gong's 'True Treasure' cruise ship."
"Gong family?"
Captain Li frowned, very surprised: "Why is Xiong Jianyi on Gong's ship?"
He glanced at the telegram. According to it, the Zaiyuan ferry that Xiong Jianyi was on encountered a breakdown halfway through the journey. All the passengers had to drift across the sea and send telegrams for help.
The closest ship to them was the Gong family's "Zhenbao" cruise ship, which happened to be passing by. It took everyone on board and headed towards the port. It seemed that the Gong family was planning to change their original itinerary to Weinan Road and sent a telegram in advance, preparing to discuss a business deal with the Yuan'an Company.
Judging from the time, it will arrive tomorrow morning.
After Captain Li finished reading it, he immediately instructed, "Go get Gong's chart."
After a while, a route map was transmitted to his interface. From this map, it could be seen that Gong's cruise ship had indeed passed by there during that time period. It really seemed like just a coincidence.
He couldn't help but recall the background of the Gong family. In the old days, the Gong family was a royal family recognized by the islands in the sea. They were also canonized during the Dashun Empire. After the establishment of the Dashun Republic, they were given an honorary title because they took the initiative to approach them. They still have a high reputation on the overseas islands.
In addition, the Gong family has shares in various major companies, weaving a huge network of contacts and having a huge influence.
However, the owner of this cruise ship, Gong Zhanyi, is not the heir of this generation, but an important member of the Gong family. He often represents the Gong family to visit various countries and negotiate business with various companies.
The Gong family also has a relatively large influence in the Yinglu District of the central city. Since they have come to the central city of Jibei Road, the target they want to capture, Xiong Jianyi, is likely to use the influence of the Gong family to cover for himself. If so, things will become complicated, especially when the Gong family still has to discuss business with Yuan'an Company.
A team member asked, "Captain Li, what should we do?"
Captain Li thought for a moment and said, "For now, the action remains unchanged."
The team members immediately became happy and high-fived each other.
Their thinking was simple. Why bother? They were a large island nation, so why should Dashun consider their reputation? We were arresting criminals, so what did it have to do with you? I arrested them when I should. Oh, I offended you? Then who told you to bring the criminals with you?
Captain Li thought more about it and felt that this matter seemed a little complicated, but he would not panic before seeing the exact and specific situation.
In the dormitory of Xuangong Building, Chen Chuan is making preparations step by step.
At 10 p.m. on February 2nd, Ni Qianqian contacted him and told him, "We received news that the tourists on the Zaiyuan ferry have been transferred to Gong's cruise ship. Things may change."
"Gong family?"
Ni Qianqian explained Gong's background to him and added, "Judging from Xiong Jianyi's past, he seems cruel and cunning. Since he's on Gong's ship, he's likely blending in with the Gong team to provide cover for himself."
Chen Chuan asked, "I have a question. Since he is a wanted criminal of the Dashun clan, and the Gong clan is a royal family of the islands, there should be no connection between the two parties. So why didn't they inform the Gong clan in advance and keep them away from this matter?"
“Well, how should I put it…” Ni Qianqian thought for a moment and said, “Arresting combat criminals is only the responsibility of our processing bureau, but dealing with the Gong family is the responsibility of the Foreign Affairs Bureau.
If we want to deal with the Gong family, we need to go through the Foreign Affairs Bureau, and it may not go as we wish. Xiong Jianyi seems to be a vicious wanted criminal in our bureau, but in the eyes of the Foreign Affairs Bureau, it may be just a trivial matter that does not need to be paid attention to. They may even blame us for being nosy and ask us to stop the action.
But...is this really just a small matter?"
Chen Chuan said slowly: "Not really."
He had read the case files. After Xiong Jianyi committed the crime, some people suspected that he had functional disorder syndrome.
However, it was later discovered that this was not the case. Hidden in his room were more than a dozen disassembled and arranged corpses, with religious symbols carved on them. It was speculated that this was probably an ancient bloody ritual popular on the outer islands, a clear cult behavior.
This is just what they know. Judging from the situation in the central city, there is probably much more that they don’t know.
"That's not the case. Brother Chen, whether or not we can bring this man to justice tomorrow depends on your actions. The bureau's opinion is to execute him on the spot. We don't need to take him alive, otherwise there's a chance he might survive."
Chen Chuan understood. If such a person were allowed to go through the legal process, he might actually survive, or even have a good chance of being acquitted. He said slowly, "The student union will do its best."
On February 3, a luxury cruise ship arrived at Jiyang Port. It was a team of 120 people, 39 of whom were from the Gong family, and the rest were drivers and security personnel.
After coming out of the checkpoint, the group got on the car that had come to pick them up in advance and drove towards the Ferris Wheel Company’s headquarters in Yinglu District.
Gong Zhanyi is less than 30 years old and has a healthy wheat-colored skin. Although he is not a pure fighter, members of large families like him have to undergo combat training, so he looks very energetic.
He then asked, "Is anyone still there?"
The steward beside him replied respectfully, "He's in the seventh car at the back. Our people are with him. Dashun shouldn't be able to hide the news, but we've already informed the Foreign Affairs Bureau."
Gong Zhanyi asked, "Were his previous actions normal?"
"Normal. However, when he was leaving the port, someone from the Tianshu Gang came over and contacted him. We checked and found that person was his senior brother Wei Wusheng."
Gong Zhanyi hummed, and after a moment, he gave a brief instruction: "Make arrangements, and don't make any mistakes."
The steward said yes respectfully.
At the same time, on a section of road leading from Jiyang District to Yinglu District, Chen Chuan had already arrived at a three-story house on the roadside in advance. This was the point arranged by the processing bureau.
The processing bureau has determined that Xiong Jian will leave the port with Gong's convoy in a while, so they have set up obstacles at other intersections, forcing the convoy to pass through here. There are several bends on this section of road, and the convoy will definitely slow down when passing through. That will be the opportunity.
Chen Chuan checked his surroundings and contacted Ni Qianqian, saying, "I've arrived at the designated location."
Ni Qianqian said, "Their convoy is less than ten kilometers away from here. You'll see them in twenty minutes at most. The technicians have checked. They should be in the seventh car behind. However, there are two security guards and an accompanying person on board. How are you going to deal with this?"
Chen Chuan thought for a moment and asked, "Will I be responsible for the damage to the vehicle?"
Ni Qianqian giggled. One could imagine she must have been rolling on the floor with laughter behind Jie Ping. Her sense of humor was indeed quite low, but she quickly fell silent and said, "It's good enough that they didn't pursue them for harboring a wanted criminal. They even want us to compensate for the car? Dream on! As long as we deal with the criminal, the rest will just be a verbal battle with the Foreign Affairs Bureau. We don't have to worry about that."
Chen Chuan said, "Then I have no problem."
"That's good, classmate Chen, it's up to you."
Chen Chuan ended the call with her and immediately contacted Wu Bei again, "Brother Wu, how are you doing?"
Wu Bei said, "It's good to have a public boundary point. I can see clearly from here that the convoy is coming towards you. It will take...sixteen minutes to get there.
It's just that the other team might have some skilled players, so there might be some interference. But it won't be easy for them to use the boundary point. This time, I'm back on home turf, so I'm not afraid of them."
Chen Chuan could tell he was excited; this was a good state to be in. He checked his belongings again and waited another ten minutes. A long convoy appeared in sight ahead.
At the nearest outpost of the processing bureau, Captain Li was watching the progress of the convoy through the interface. From the moment the people got off the cruise ship to now, the entire process was under the monitoring of technical personnel.
Originally, the technical staff's support for them was also limited, but because the matter suddenly involved the Gong family, the bureau temporarily strengthened their technical support, but they were only responsible for monitoring and could not do much.
Seeing that they were about to reach the designated section of the road, he contacted all team members, "Are you ready?" All members immediately responded with full energy.
Captain Li nodded, his expression very serious. The situation this time was more complicated. If the arrest of Chen Chuan was not successful, his men would step up immediately.
He stared at the convoy in the light curtain, but just as they were getting closer to the arrest site, their world suddenly became dark, and the members around him were cursing.
"What's going on?"
Captain Li immediately withdrew from the boundary.
"Captain Li," the technician immediately reported, "We are experiencing field interference."
Captain Li's expression changed. This wasn't a foreign affairs meeting period. How could the Gong family use field interference within the central city area? This was a clear violation of regulations.
"Something's wrong. Immediately send Student Chen first..." He suddenly realized that Jie Ping couldn't pass on the message, and hurriedly said, "Shao Heng, take a team to the front to meet Student Chen immediately. Hurry!"
"yes!"
A sturdy team member immediately responded and ran out with his men.
Captain Li stared at the intersection, feeling a little uneasy. He hoped nothing would go wrong...
At the same time, here at Chen Chuan's place, the world suddenly darkened, and his contact with Wu Bei was suddenly cut off. Not only Wu Bei, but all his contact with the outside world was cut off.
He immediately realized that this was field interference.
If there is interference, it means that the other party may have known their actions. Even if they don’t know, consciously interfering means they are prepared. So should they continue with the mission?
He looked at the convoy coming from the opposite direction, and in accordance with the emergency regulations for field missions of the Bureau... he raised the Xuejun Knife in his hand.
The first car passed by, and soon the second, the third...
He slowly pulled out the blade, and the law enforcer, without receiving any orders or emergency notifications... the fourth, fifth, and sixth cars drove past.
Then... let's act according to the established plan!
He suddenly pushed the scabbard to the side, and as the blade came out of the sheath, he leaped forward, jumped down from the balcony, raised the long sword high in both hands, and slashed at the car below!
