Chapter 391 I am a serious businessman
Hu Xiaoxiao's words made the staff in the store suddenly nervous. Several team members surrounded Steven and protected him, with their guns pointed at Hu Xiaoxiao.
Hu Xiaoxiao stood in the middle of the stairs and pointed toward the corner of the door. "Aren't those guns? They're all piled in that box."
In an inconspicuous corner under the rolling shutter door, there were several large boxes piled up. The boxes were half-closed, and something that looked like a gun barrel was vaguely visible.
An officer immediately rushed over and opened the box. It was indeed full of guns, filling three large boxes.
Chu Ying saw this and laughed out loud, "I told you, you hid a gun here, the evidence is irrefutable, you will go to jail with me!"
Once he's in jail, we'll see how he kills them!
While Chu Ying was laughing triumphantly, the sir had already taken out a gun from the box, weighed it, and threw it on the ground. Then he picked up a few more guns, looked at them, and threw them on the ground again.
The sound of the plastic falling to the ground was so different from the sound of the metal falling to the ground that the officers seemed to understand something and went over to check.
"Sir Wang, these are toy guns."
After checking the three large boxes, the team leader came over to report to Steven.
"Toy gun?" Chu Ying's heart skipped a beat. She dragged her legs and half ran over, staring at the toy gun on the ground. She stepped on it and found it was broken. It was made of plastic.
His mind seemed to explode.
Fell into a trap!
He was fooled!
Chu Ying stared at Hu Xiaoxiao and angrily asked, "Did you lie to me?"
"Why would I lie to you?" Hu Xiaoxiao walked to the first floor and asked contemptuously, "Who are you? Do I know you?"
Chu Ying was furious: "You're not lying to me, why are there so many toy guns here?"
Were these the guns that the convenience store owner saw at the time?
Yes, they deliberately let the convenience store owner see it. Also, they already knew that the convenience store owner was a member of the Changxing Society, so they set a trap on purpose.
Hu Xiaoxiao looked puzzled and said, "Our store plans to sell some toys, so isn't it normal to import some toy guns?"
Hu Xiaoxiao walked back to the counter and took out a few receipts, handing them to the clerk in front of her. "These are the receipts and payment receipts for this batch of toy guns. Take a look. We bought them from a toy factory in Baogang. It's a legal business and we've paid taxes. Also, our business license also lists toys as a business."
Steven looked around the store and asked, "Do you sell toys in this store?"
Hu Xiaoxiao explained honestly, "This store has three floors. We plan to sell toys and stationery on the second floor, books on the third floor, and audio-visual products on the first floor."
Hu Xiaoxiao said to Dong Peiyu, "Take off the sign and show it to the officers."
Dong Peiyu took a long stick and walked outside the shop to uncover the red cloth.
Several officers shone their flashlights on it and saw the words "Shengshi Book and Audio-visual Store" written in large letters, with small words below indicating the items sold: VCDs, videotapes, books, stationery, and toys.
Hu Xiaoxiao opened a box nearby and took out a few VCDs. He said to Steven, "Sir, take a look at these VCDs. They're new, and they're very popular these days. Our store not only sells VCDs, we also have VCD players. Since we're opening a new store, we can play VCDs. Why don't you buy one?"
Hu Xiaoxiao was trying to drum up business for the store. "If you buy a lot, we'll give you posters. We have posters signed by me, but the quantity is limited, so it's on a first-come, first-served basis."
After saying that, Hu Xiaoxiao took out a poster placed under the counter and gave it to Steven.
Steven took it and unfolded it. It was the poster of Hu Xiaoxiao in "The Queen of Hong Kong", a signed poster.
In the poster, Hu Xiaoxiao is wearing a police uniform and looks heroic.
Steven curled his lips, rolled up the poster, held it in his hand, turned to face Chu Ying, and asked seriously, "Do you have anything else to say?"
Chu Ying said angrily, "They did it on purpose! Otherwise, why didn't they come out earlier?"
Hu Xiaoxiao looked at him like he was idiot and said, "It's like a war outside. Anyone with a bit of common sense would stay home. Why don't you ask the people nearby why they're hiding upstairs instead of opening their doors to see what's going on? Do you think everyone is as stupid as you?"
That word "stupid" made Chu Ying's eyes red with anger, "Where's Huang Yuliang? Call him out! Huang Yuliang! Don't hide in there like a turtle, come out!"
After he finished speaking, Huang Yuliang came down from upstairs with a few of his men, carrying things.
Huang Yuliang wore a white shirt with his sleeves rolled up. Perhaps because he was working, his bangs were a little messy, not as neatly combed as usual. But the messy bangs did not detract from his handsomeness, but instead added a touch of casualness.
Huang Yuliang was carrying a VCD, and several of his subordinates were carrying things behind him. One was carrying shelf boards, another was carrying a fan, and another was holding a mop and a broom...
Huang Yuliang put the things on the first floor, wiped his hands clean, walked over, and extended his hand to Steven, "I'm sorry, sir, our store is in a hurry to open, so we restocked and cleaned it overnight."
Steven reached out and shook Huang Yuliang's hand, saying, "Because someone spread a rumor that there were lethal weapons here, we had to break into the store out of urgency. I hope the boss will forgive us."
Huang Yuliang released his hand and spoke frankly, "We are honest businessmen and fully support the officer's investigation. He is also working to protect the personal safety of our citizens and deserves respect. Since someone has spread rumors, in order to prove his innocence and to prevent him from being accused of dereliction of duty, please have someone search the entire third floor of our store."
"Thank you for the boss's cooperation. On behalf of the Hong Kong government, I would like to express my gratitude." Steven asked two team leaders to take people up to check the second and third floors, and he personally inspected the first floor.
The store hadn't opened yet, so many of the goods hadn't been put up, and neither had the store decorations. So apart from the stacked boxes, almost nothing was visible at a glance.
The team leader led the others to turn over the boxes and take a look. The third floor was full of books, the second floor was full of stationery and toys, not to mention the first floor, the boxes were all filled with VCDs, and they were checked very easily.
Chu Ying's face had long since turned from white to blue, and then to purple. He stared at Huang Yuliang, gritting his teeth and saying, "Huang Yuliang, you're fine!"
"Thank you for the compliment," Huang Yuliang said modestly. "I've always been a very kind person, but I think you're not feeling well. You've lost so much blood, and even if you recover, you'll still be deficient in Qi and blood. Also, your blood has stained the floor of our shop, and cleaning it up will cost a fortune. I'll hire a lawyer to collect the sanitation fees from you. Also, I'll have my lawyer sue you in court for slandering me."
