Upon hearing Chen Yanqing's words, the team members beside him were startled. They glanced at Chen Yanqing and saw his grim expression, realizing that he was not joking. Without saying a word, they ran off to report.
The others were also startled. Just a moment ago, Chen Yanqing was speaking softly and affectionately to that delicate woman with a look of admiration, but his face turned so ugly the moment he turned around!
One of the policemen nearby realized what was happening and whispered, "What are we waiting for? It's just a woman. We could have just grabbed her already. Why do we need to report to our superior?"
Chen Yanqing glared and hissed, "Shut up! Use your brains! There must be accomplices. This woman isn't the original head of household. The head of household has definitely been kidnapped by her accomplices. Don't make any rash moves. Report to Commander Ning before making a decision!"
After saying that, he turned around and looked at the tightly closed courtyard gate, a hint of anxiety showing in his eyes!
Ning Zhiheng quickly received a report from the action team members and led the team over.
"Where is the culprit?" Ning Zhiheng asked as soon as he saw Chen Yanqing.
"It's right here in this courtyard!" Chen Yanqing said, pointing to the gate not far away. "The woman who opened the gate just now wasn't the original owner of the house. I know the owner of this house!"
"You know him!" Ning Zhiheng looked at Chen Yanqing with surprise, but he didn't delay any longer and turned to Shi Hong, saying, "Surround this compound completely and bring everyone here! Prepare to make the arrests!"
Shi Hong agreed and immediately dispatched manpower. The action team members spread out in all directions and surrounded the courtyard tightly!
Seeing this situation, Chen Yanqing quickly said to Ning Zhiheng, "Commander Ning, the criminal has taken hostages! You can't act rashly!"
Ning Zhiheng's face turned cold, his eyes narrowed, and he said in a cold voice, "Are you telling me how to do things?"
The hint of coldness in his tone instantly cleared Chen Yanqing's head. He had been so concerned that he had forgotten that the person in front of him was by no means a soft-hearted person!
"No, no, that's not what I meant!" Chen Yanqing was at a loss, not knowing what to say.
"Who is the owner of this house to you?" Ning Zhiheng's expression softened slightly, and his tone was no longer so stern.
In his haste, Chen Yanqing lost his composure and quickly explained, "The head of household is a single woman in her twenties named Guo Ruxue. I only know her by nodding acquaintance. We only met a few times and exchanged a few words when our household registration police came to investigate the household registration and verify the personnel!"
Ning Zhiheng asked in confusion, "Your police station has tens of thousands of households and tens of thousands of citizens in its jurisdiction. How could a household registration officer remember her after only two visits?"
After saying that, he said with a half-smile, "Isn't this Miss Guo very beautiful?"
Chen Yanqing felt a little embarrassed by Ning Zhiheng's words and said in a low voice, "Yes, she is very beautiful and a very nice person!"
I understand now. She's a beautiful and virtuous woman, the object of every gentleman's affections! Chen Yanqing felt admiration for Guo Ruxue after seeing her, but he never confessed his feelings; it was just unrequited love!
Ning Zhiheng somewhat understood Chen Yanqing's feelings, but he didn't have time to deal with these things. He wasn't anyone to Chen Yanqing, and he couldn't possibly hinder the arrest operation for the sake of his sweetheart!
He turned to Sun Jiacheng and said, "The longer we wait, the more things might go wrong. We need to act now. Go knock on the door and take down whoever opens it."
He then instructed Shi Hong and Wang Shucheng: "Brother Hong and Shucheng, each lead a team to advance simultaneously from the rear from two different directions. Be quick and try to leave some alive. If they put up a stubborn resistance, then don't hold back!"
The three nodded in agreement and immediately led their team to their positions.
Ning Zhiheng then said to Chen Yanqing, "Concern leads to confusion! To be honest, if your Miss Guo wasn't an accomplice of the criminal, she's probably doomed by now. I can't let the arrest operation be hampered because of her! It all depends on her luck!"
Chen Yanqing's lips moved, but he ultimately didn't speak. He knew that from Ning Zhiheng's perspective, catching the culprit was the top priority. As for Guo Ruxue's life or death, he was the only one among them who still cared about it. He couldn't help but feel gloomy and could only pray that the woman he admired would be blessed with good fortune and be safe and sound!
Sun Jiacheng arrived at the gate with only one policeman, knocked on the door, and the gate opened shortly afterward.
Zuo Rou came to the courtyard gate again. She looked at Sun Jiacheng with a helpless expression and said, "Sir, this is the third time you've searched. How many more times are you going to search?"
Sun Jiacheng said with a smile, "That's right, there was something I forgot during the investigation just now, and some things were not clear. We need to investigate again."
After saying that, she naturally took a step forward and stepped onto the threshold. Zuo Rou had no choice but to open the courtyard gate wide. She had no choice but to bite the bullet and deal with it again!
Sun Jiacheng took the register from the policeman behind him and asked, "Guo Ruxue?"
Zuo Rou nodded gently in agreement.
"It's like this, this investigation is a bit special. After the investigation is completed, the head of household needs to sign. I forgot earlier, so I'm asking you to sign again!" Sun Jiacheng said, handing over the registration book in his hand.
As Zuo Rou reached out to take the register, she suddenly felt the other party exert force. Just as the register blocked her view, a tremendous force struck her ribs. The powerful impact made her body tremble, and the intense pain made her legs go weak, causing her to collapse to the ground!
Although Zuo Rou had practiced martial arts since childhood and was quite skilled, she was, after all, a woman, and was naturally at a disadvantage in terms of physical strength, especially in close combat. That's why she specifically practiced with a thin-bladed knife to increase its destructive power and lethality in order to make up for her lack of strength.
However, even in a face-to-face fight, she was far inferior to a master like Sun Jiacheng. Moreover, he deliberately caught her off guard, leaving her with almost no time to react before she was struck hard on her weak spot and immediately lost her fighting ability!
