After that, there were more than a dozen girls.
They were all very young, in their teens or twenties, and looked very pretty, except that their left hands were bare.
Because the policewoman had to help them pack, they came out very slowly. When they emerged, they were all utterly dejected, their eyes devoid of any light.
Shen Yanming, who was guarding the perimeter, couldn't bear to watch the tragedy, so he turned his gaze elsewhere and discovered several shadowy figures lurking around.
His eyes flashed, and he whispered something to the guard beside him. The guard nodded and waved, and several guards chased after the people who had fled.
Shen Yanming originally wanted to chase after them himself, but his strength was average, and he wasn't sure he could take them down. Since that was the case, he decided to let the more capable person handle it.
At that moment, a commotion broke out in the stronghold, with gunshots and women's screams rang out.
The people waiting outside were in a panic, and some of those who were arrested even had ulterior motives, wanting to sneak away while everyone's attention was diverted.
However, they underestimated the professionalism of the guards, and they were subdued by the guards as soon as they showed any signs of aggression.
However, the fighting inside grew louder and louder, as did the woman's cries. Mu Shaorong, the commander on the outer perimeter, was worried and sent half of his men to provide support.
The operation was swift; the group entered the hideout and quickly engaged in a fight with the suspects, relieving the pressure on the police and security guards inside.
At the risk of injury, they fought bravely and managed to subdue the thugs who were armed with daggers or guns.
Outside, after the guards left, the subdued suspects became restless. They exchanged a glance, then rose and rushed towards the gap between the guards.
Having finally caught them, letting them go would mean all their efforts were wasted. Mu Shaorong made a decisive move, ordering his guards to take them down.
The guards went all out, dislocating a person's arm or breaking their leg.
The naked men had intended to escape in the chaos, but seeing how brutal the attack was, they suppressed their thoughts.
They thought that since a little punishment would have been enough to settle things, they shouldn't make a fuss and end up losing their lives.
Ever since he was attacked and hospitalized, Shen Yanming had been practicing his martial arts diligently. He didn't have much trouble dealing with three or five unarmed ordinary people.
When the ground was filled with cries of "Ouch, ouch," the people inside started to come out one after another.
A dozen or so women dressed in tattered clothes, and a dozen or so men with their arms removed and fierce expressions.
Finally, there were the police escorts.
There were still some injuries; at least Li Gangtie had to be carried out.
He always felt guilty, believing that Hara Yoshitsugu's death was his fault. Therefore, he was extremely fierce when facing thugs.
No one expected that these organizers would have so many firearms. The initial success made them lower their guard.
Just as a man raised his gun, preparing to ambush a police officer, Li Gangtie lunged forward and blocked the bullet with his back.
Seeing blood, everyone's hearts turned heavy, and they struck even harder. However, these desperate people were not to be trifled with; driven to the brink, they would take as many as they could with them.
So even the girls were implicated, and many were even taken hostage.
It was Mu Shaorong's men who attacked from the side and pinned the arrogant criminal suspects to the ground.
Overall, the operation was a success.
Wen Chaohui ordered his men to take the suspects back for questioning. As for the victims, they were to be taken to a hotel to be cleaned up first, and then to the police station to give statements. Female police officers and security guards were arranged to accompany them, and they were left alone for the time being.
Wen Mengguan was so angry at the perpetrator of the violence that Bai Tiaotiao committed that he ordered his guards to escort him back to the police station.
Although it was a winter night, the commotion was so loud that a crowd quickly gathered. Feeling uncomfortable under their gaze, some crouched on the ground covering their heads, while others stood up and covered their faces; they all still had some sense of shame.
But there are a few who don't recognize their place and are yelling about human rights with Wen Chao, demanding that they also wear cotton-padded clothes and ride in cars.
Wen Mengguan ignored him and kicked him, yelling, "You better behave yourself!"
"Hey, who are you? Do you know who I am? My dad is Qi Daxun, the second-in-command of Haishi. If you dare to treat me like this, I'll have my dad kill you!" Qi Guanglin was all bark and no bite, thinking that the other party would let him off the hook because of his father.
Would the Alliance Official be afraid? Of course not! Not only was he not afraid, but he was even more furious upon hearing this!
The son of an official, how could he have no concept of the rule of law in the face of such a crime, instead aiding and abetting the perpetrator? How heartbreaking is that?
If he had chosen to report it to the police when he discovered it, wouldn't these victims have been able to escape their suffering sooner?
Or, would there be fewer young girls in their prime who have their arms cut off and are forced into prostitution?
Pests! What a failure of education!
"Get his father here to take him away. I want to know how Qi Daxun raised his son!" Wen Chaohui left angrily and arranged for someone to investigate whether the high-ranking official Qi was clean or not.
Although the apocalypse will be chaotic, he really didn't believe that someone would dare to make such a big move while the social system was still functioning normally; they must have some powerful backing. Who knows, the person behind it all might be that guy surnamed Qi.
Although Wen Chaohui was furious, he wouldn't say anything that could damage the other party's reputation and career without evidence. However, with such a troublesome son, his official career was effectively over.
The official in charge of the alliance didn't give them any face, and those "IOUs" felt desperate, but dared not show it.
Many of them were brought by Qi Guanglin. They originally thought that he had a powerful background and that even if something happened, they would be fine. But they didn't expect that they would run into a tough opponent before they had even come twice.
Sigh, I should have just stayed home and behaved myself. Now I can only pray that they'll be punished according to public order regulations.
Little did they know that Wen Chao would secretly impose harsher sentences on them.
Although the transaction was illegal but not criminal, none of the girls present were there voluntarily, so it could still be prosecuted as rape.
They're all a bunch of troublemakers. Let's send them out for reformation and let them repent for their stupidity.
Wen Mengguan didn't take a car; he just walked behind a pile of IOUs, observing their predicament. At the same time, he thought that there were some things he really needed to discuss with his superiors.
The group walked for a long time before arriving at the police station, where officers who had arrived earlier had already begun interrogating the suspect.
These people, suddenly exposed to the warm environment, couldn't help but sneeze. No one pitied them, nor did they give them clothes; they were simply thrown into the interrogation room.
Being naked is fine, it's better than being out in the freezing cold. Just confess honestly and get your family to redeem you as soon as possible.
These people thought to themselves, but their words were perfectly cooperative. Without being asked much, they readily revealed everything they knew.
