Wind Rises in Dragon City Chapter 137
🕑 Added 2024-11-28 11:46:08 +0000 UTCChapter 137: All Cautious People
In the Dragon City Police Bureau compound, chaos had already broken out as dozens of police vehicles with flashing lights and blaring sirens were coming and going, moving back and forth.
After finishing a meeting upstairs, Wang Daolin hurried downstairs with seven or eight of his men, heading straight for the compound parking lot.
"Check according to normal procedures," Wang Daolin handed the search area records from the meeting to the officer beside him. "Those above are anxious, telling brothers below to put aside all current cases and concentrate on managing their districts."
"Understood!" the officer beside him nodded.
"Two requirements: First, don't provoke the garrison; Second, strictly follow district assignments for setting up checkpoints," Wang Daolin told his people expressionlessly. "Simply put, if it's not your job, don't rush to do it."
With these simple words, his men fully understood Wang Daolin's meaning - do enough for appearances, but unless they personally cornered the bandits, don't get involved in other matters.
After giving instructions, Wang Daolin's department officers left the compound by car to participate in tonight's emergency search operation.
......
After getting into a car himself, Wang Daolin changed into plain clothes inside and used a new phone to call Su Tianyu.
"Hello? Uncle Wang!"
"Where are you?" Wang Daolin asked directly.
Su Tianyu blinked: "I'm in Huadu."
"...Speak human words!"
"I really am in Huadu, I'm high-level, the remote control type," Su Tianyu clarified his position.
"You bastard, you better not offend me," Wang Daolin ground his teeth and cursed. "My case-solving ability is quite good."
Su Tianyu paused: "Then... what do you mean, Uncle Wang?"
"I'm coming to find you, have something to say."
"Come outside the district, to the Second Patrol Brigade, Third Regiment First Company garrison," Su Tianyu paused before saying. "I'll wait for you here."
"Good, I'll call you when I arrive."
"Mm, that's it."
After speaking, they ended the call, and Wang Daolin cursed with a grin: "Damn dog, running so fast, already out of the city. Looks like the garrison is deeply involved."
......
Outside Dragon City, beside the First Company garrison.
Su Tianyu said to Uncle Gang: "I'll leave Nick and his people to you, I won't manage how you handle them."
"Thank you, Brother Yu," Uncle Gang extended his hand. "You helped me fix my mistake, I owe you one."
"Oh come on, we're family, what's this talk of two households!" Su Tianyu replied sweetly. "In the future, we might even eat from the same trough."
Uncle Gang was stunned: "That would depend on the boss's intentions."
"You go first, still taking the Xinaluo route back to Zone One," Su Tianyu looked down at his watch. "I'll do some wrap-up work here."
"Alright, we'll go first then."
"See you in Zone One," Su Tianyu waved to them.
After their communication, Uncle Gang and his men took Nick and the others and left at top speed.
After watching them leave, Su Tianyu immediately called Yu Mingyuan: "I need to meet with Wang Daolin, how much freedom can you give me?"
"What you say counts as what I say," Yu Mingyuan replied decisively. "No limits, handle it as you see fit."
This was exactly what Su Tianyu had been waiting for - he grinned like an idiot.
......
About forty minutes later, the car arrived near the company garrison, but Wang Daolin didn't appear, only sending Su Tianyu a message: "Come find me by the river."
Su Tianyu deliberately annoyed him: "Don't, we're all in the company area, you come here."
Wang Daolin replied irritably: "Come to your mother, hurry up!"
As a police department leader, how could Wang Daolin appear at this time in the "crowded and watched" company area? If he went, wouldn't that completely align him with the Yu family people? Definitely would make him one of tonight's murder planners.
About twenty minutes later, a car stopped by the river. Su Tianyu walked over alone and knocked on Wang Daolin's car window: "Come out, Uncle."
"Just get in and talk!" Wang Daolin glared and shouted.
"Uncle, I heard police cars all have law enforcement recorders that can record video and audio, don't know if that's true," Su Tianyu replied, leaning against the outside of the car.
Wang Daolin was speechless: "You're a cautious one."
"Surviving in the underworld for so many years, it's all thanks to being cowardly," Su Tianyu replied with a smile.
"Slap!"
Wang Daolin swung a hand: "Stand further away!"
Su Tianyu smiled and walked forward along the riverbank.
Wang Daolin got out of the car and followed, asking concisely: "Gu Tongshan...?"
"Wait a moment, Uncle Wang!" Su Tianyu grinned and turned around, extending both hands to frantically pat Wang Daolin's coat pockets, sleeves, and thighs.
"What the fuck are you doing?!" Wang Daolin was getting angry.
"I'm afraid you brought down a law enforcement recorder..."
"Are you sick?! Need to pat the back door too?..."
"Better safe than sorry," Su Tianyu didn't care if the other was angry or not, just kept patting away. Because he knew what they would discuss later, and at this point it wasn't clear whether Wang Daolin could be tied to the Yu family.
A minute later, Wang Daolin stopped struggling: "Done patting?"
"Mm," Su Tianyu nodded.
"Give me a cigarette!" Wang Daolin frowned in reply.
Su Tianyu took out his cigarette pack and gave it to him, helping him light it before asking: "Do you want to pat me too?"
Wang Daolin took a deep drag on his cigarette and replied very seriously: "Yes!"
After another short while, they finished patting each other and walked together along the river.
"Did you people really kill Gu Tongshan?" Wang Daolin asked.
"Gu Tongshan is dead? When did this happen?!" Su Tianyu asked in shock.
Looking at his expression, Wang Daolin immediately waved his hand: "Your acting is very poor! You pay more attention to Gu Tongshan than to your own father - he's been dead this long, how could you not know?"
"Ah, I just remembered..."
"Don't play games with me!" Wang Daolin stared at Su Tianyu: "Did you people really kill him?!"
......
Inside the district, in the Longkou District Hospital morgue.
About twenty dock gang leaders from Longkou District had arrived, over thirty elders from the General Association had come, and lackeys from Zha'nan District had nearly blocked the hospital's parking lot.
As people stood in the corridor frequently talking, Xu Hu pushed his way up, looking at the morgue bed with stunned eyes. After a long silence, he suddenly shouted: "Master!! Master!!"
Xu Hu's crying voice filled the corridor as he stumbled into the room and collapsed beside Gu Tongshan, crying with self-reproach...
