Problematic Little Sister Fell In Love With Me Chapter 259 - Concerns

Chapter 259: Chapter 259 Concerns

Lin Zhi must’ve also known that w.a.n.g Jie liked Dong Xiaoye, and he probably also knew w.a.n.g Jie’s temperament. He glanced at me and then frowned at him, “Yes, Mr. Chu is not a policeman, but he still risked his life to help us to take the remote control of the bombs. What he saved is not just those hostages’ lives, but also our lives and the lives of the hostages’ family members too. Those lives are much more important than capturing Xu Heng. Compared to him, what have we done? How can we expect him, a regular civilian, to do more? He has already helped us a lot in saving the faces of the police. . .”

Although Mo Fei didn’t speak, she also gave a cold snort.

w.a.n.g Jie’s face blushed, his bronze skin became darker, and he tried to cover it, “I definitely didn’t mean to blame Mr. Chu. . .”

“What right do you have to blame him?” Mo Fei finally couldn’t help but question him.

Dong Xiaoye also said with a sulky mood, “If you are that component, why couldn’t you take the remote control back? And why couldn’t you arrest Xu Heng?”

“No, Captain Tao, Captain Lin, Xiaoye, Fei Fei, Officer w.a.n.g’s suspicion is not unreasonable,” I was humble on the surface, but in fact I was trying to mock him, “Xu Heng had many chances to kill me, but not only didn’t he do it, but he also tried his best to save my life because he said that he respected me for willing to sacrifice myself to save others. From this, it’s easy for some simpletons to mistake me for one of those gunmen. As for my wound, that could be interpreted as a trick, right? Officer w.a.n.g?”

The police were the most suspicious profession in the world. Even though I had provided them with a lot of clues, w.a.n.g Jie was definitely not the only person who had this kind of suspicion. In this room, probably apart from Mo Fei and Dong Xiaoye, those two people who had absolute trust in me, the rest of the people all felt the same as w.a.n.g Jie more or less.

Hearing my mocking tone, not only w.a.n.g Jie was reduced to silence, but the righteous Captain Tao also didn’t dare to look me in the eyes. Lin Zhi let out an awkward laugh and said, “Mr. Chu, you are thinking too much. Not to mention that you are Xiaoye’s friend, just for the righteous act of helping us catch those gunmen, we will not doubt you. . .”

Dong Xiaoye once said that because of catching Zhou Tian, the police also busted a huge theft ring. Although Dong Xiaoye got all the credits, it was no secret to the police that I also made a huge contribution to it. But w.a.n.g Jie frowned and muttered quietly, “so what if he is Xiaoye’s friend? Can’t we doubt him?”

Although his voice was low, and he was muttering to himself, I could still hear it. Lin Zhi’s face also became very cold. “What did you say?!” He asked angrily.

“I didn’t say anything,” w.a.n.g Jie muttered hurriedly in denial, saying, “I mean, of course, we don’t need to suspect Mr. Chu, but we can’t just ignore what Xu Heng said, right? He said he really admired. . . admired Mr. Chu, so we can’t rule out the possibility that he was lying, right? Maybe he deliberately deceived Mr. Chu.”

When he said the word ‘admire’, a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes. It was understandable why he would feel that way. After all, I also despised myself from time to time, so I didn’t expect others to praise me.

Seeing I smiled indifferently, w.a.n.g Jie was surprised. Then he continued, “Xu Heng said that there were only two live ammunition in every gunman’s pistol. But there is a possibility that he wanted to use Mr. Chu to mislead the police. If they had enough ammunition, but we acted rashly, more people would be injured. At that time, who would take this responsibility? From Mr. Chu’s description of Xu Heng, it is not difficult for us to confirm two things. Firstly, the reason why Xu Heng created such a large-scale crime was not for money, but for huge influence. Based on the location he planned those bombs, this influence is most likely based on a large number of casualties. Considering the ident.i.ty and social status of the hostages inside, we have to be careful. Secondly, if everything Xu Heng said was true, it is normal for him to hate the police. Therefore, I have enough reason to suspect that he wants to deliberately lure us into the manor to provoke the gunmen inside and cause more casualties. In that way, the police would be blamed for all the casualties caused in this crime. This is a trick that will hit two birds with one stone!”

It was undeniable w.a.n.g Jie had enough talent to be a police officer. His a.n.a.lysis was so well-founded that it was impossible to refute it. Even Dong Xiaoye also fell silent.

Like Linzhi, Captain Tao frowned deeply. They seemed to subconsciously s.h.i.+ft their gazes to my face.

My instinct told me that whether it was Captain Tao or Lin Zhi, this old fox, they had thought of this possibility a long time ago. I sighed and said, “So what, if Xu Heng lied to me? If they had enough bullets in their guns, even if the police did not rush in, after they realized that Xu Heng had escaped, would they not kill hostages indiscriminately? There is only one way to avoid casualties, that is, if the police are willing to let them leave safely. . .”

w.a.n.g Jie was dazed. Lin Zhi and Captain Tao glanced at each other and shook their heads and smiled bitterly. Obviously, they would not let go of the gunmen. From their cell phones that had been constantly ringing, it could be seen that they must have instructions and pressure from the higher-ups. So they didn’t expose this “possibility” in front of me, this “outsider”. The first reason was they didn’t think it was necessary. They would have to rush into the manor in the end anyway. The second reason was that they were probably worried that if there were casualties, as a person who provided the ‘false information’, I would bear a heavy psychological burden.

Except for his past, I have never trusted Xu Heng. Therefore, I had already thought of the possibility that he might be deceiving me. However, whatever the police wanted to do was their business. Whether the hostage was dead or alive, it had nothing to do with me. After giving them the remote control and preventing them from being blown up, I felt that I had done more than I should have done. After all, I was neither Superman nor Ultraman. I had no ability and no obligation to ensure everyone’s safety.

I didn’t know whether I wanted to mock them or it was something else, I sighed casually, “Responsibility? What are the responsibilities of the police and the responsibilities they are afraid to take?”

From a legal point of view, regardless of whether they were rich, influential, or ordinary people, they were all citizens of Bei Tian City, however, what dictated the police’s decision was how big of pressure would those people create. I knew the concerns of the police, if the hostages were all ordinary people, they might not reject the strategy of releasing the gunmen to ensure the safety of the hostages. But none of the people inside were ordinary, so they definitely would not let the gunmen leave.

This was not to say that they didn’t care about the lives of the people inside. In fact, it was the complete opposite.

Humans were animals that were accustomed to taking things for granted. Even if those people were saved, you think those influential figures would not want to ask the police for an explanation? Letting go of the gunmen would only make the police a target for their anger and dissatisfaction. At that time, the police would not be able to bear the pressure of public opinion from all quarters.

w.a.n.g Jie’s ‘concerns’ were originally directed at me, but he didn’t realize that the only people who felt troubled were the police themselves.

For a while, the air in the small room seemed to be frozen, and the reason was that I had just pointed out what they were thinking in their mind. It was at this moment, someone suddenly pushed the door in and broke this strange atmosphere. “Captain Lin, the photos provided in the envelope left by Xu Heng have been confirmed by the rescued hostages. Except for Tang Sihai, the gunman nicknamed Green Snake, who couldn’t be confirmed because he was wearing a mask, the other four men in the photos were exactly the rest of the gunmen in the manor. Their information and previous convictions have also been confirmed by the Ministry of Public Security. They are all Cla.s.s-A wanted criminals. The chief is also on the way here. He said that if we can’t persuade them to surrender, we can take them out!”

“Great!” Lin Zhi said decisively. “Time is life now, Captain Tao, let’s just follow the original plan.”

Captain Tao was also full of confidence, “I’ll arrange the men immediately. You can continue to distract them.”

“Okay.”

The two captains completely ignored w.a.n.g Jie’s concerns, making him feel very embarra.s.sed.

When w.a.n.g Jie left the room, he did not forget to turn around and give me with a look that seemed to be jealous and threatening, which made Dong Xiaoye quite angry. Being misunderstood by others, Sister Tiger blushed and felt very embarra.s.sed. She, who originally wanted to join the operation together, was ordered by Lin Zhi to stay to ‘look after’ me. When he said this, the tone he used was quite ambiguous.

“Chu Nan, you have already done everything you can do. There is no need for you to stay here. I will take you to the hospital.” Mo Fei was still worried about my injury. At the same time, she was also scared about what would happen next and didn’t want to see it.

Dong Xiaoye grabbed my blood-stained trousers, stuffed them into a bag, and said, “Yes, thanks to you, I can also finish work early, Mr. Chu, don’t tell me that you want to stay here tonight?”

I didn’t know whether Sister Tiger was dissatisfied with being ordered to take care of me, or dissatisfied that she could not be part of the operation, her words were filled with grievances.

Mo Fei frowned, “Officer Dong, what did Chu Nan do to you, why are you giving him an att.i.tude?”

“What’s wrong with my att.i.tude?” Dong Xiaoye’s eyes suddenly became cold, and she retorted sharply. “However I talked to him is none of your business, right? Besides, he didn’t even say anything, so why are you complaining about it?”

Mo Fei was the princess of Fengchang Group. No one had ever dared to ridicule her like this. She stood up all of a sudden, staring at Dong Xiaoye with cold eyes, “I just don’t like you giving him an att.i.tude!”

Dong Xiaoye also stared fiercely back at her and said a mocking tone, “You don’t like me giving him an att.i.tude? I also don’t like you staying closer to him! Who do you think you are? Cheng Liusu? Miss Mo, do you have any self-respect? Who are you to him? Who gives you the right to complain about me on behalf of him?”

“I. . .” As soon as Liusu was mentioned, Mo Fei immediately lost her confidence, but she still refused to admit defeat and asked back, “Then who are you to him? Who gives you the right to talk to him in this kind of att.i.tude?”
