Everyone turned around and saw a group of fully armed soldiers, led by two officers, quickly surrounding them.
The two young officers, one in front and one behind, swept their cold gazes over the crowd before shouting at Liu Datong, "What's going on? Liu Datong, you still can't even bring up a single prisoner. Can't you even handle such a small matter?"
One sentence shocked everyone around him. These soldiers were clearly well-trained and exuded a murderous aura, making Director Tang feel a tightness in his chest and a sense of foreboding.
This Liu Datou is really acting under orders; he clearly has powerful backers. No wonder he's so confident. Oh no, could these soldiers really be from that military intelligence agency?
Liu Datong immediately perked up, straightened his back, raised his head high, and looked at the others with disdain. He ran a few steps to Ning Zhiheng, saluted, and said, "Reporting to Commander Ning. I was ordered to take the prisoner away, but someone is obstructing me. They even dared to block me with a gun and said they would skin me alive and lock me up too."
"Such a thing exists?" Ning Zhiheng looked surprised, glancing at Director Tang and Wang Maocai. He said loudly, "There are actually people who have the audacity to obstruct the Military Intelligence Department's investigation?"
Finally fixing his gaze on Director Tang, he asked, "Who are you?"
Director Tang quickly put on a smiling face and stepped forward, saying, "I am Tang Xiaoshan, the director of the police branch. May I ask who you are?"
Ning Zhiheng immediately pulled out his military officer's identification and handed it over, saying coldly, "I am Ning Zhiheng, the action captain of the Military Intelligence Investigation Division. Half a month ago, I arrested two criminals and temporarily handed them over to you for detention. We have already reported this matter."
Director Tang, you know the authority of our Military Intelligence Division. When we're handling cases, your police force must unconditionally obey and cooperate. You know that, right? So now you need to give me an explanation: why did someone dare to obstruct us?
Upon receiving the officer's identification, Director Tang immediately noticed the words "Investigation Department of Military Intelligence," and his last shred of hope vanished.
Before he could reply, Liu Datong stepped forward and blurted out, "Reporting to Commander Ning, these two prisoners were forcibly interrogated and severely tortured by Police Chief Wang Maocai during their detention. We couldn't stop them."
"What? How could this happen?" Ning Zhiheng was furious upon hearing this and shouted angrily, "These two criminals are important witnesses in a major espionage case. I only temporarily placed them under your custody. Who gave you the right to interrogate them? Do you know that any of their statements are confidential?"
Who is it? Who is so bold as to contact the criminal without authorization? The serious consequences of this are something none of you can afford to bear!
I will report this matter; it's a serious case of dereliction of duty and leak of secrets! Who exactly is this Wang Maocai? Come out and reveal yourself!
