Chapter 086 In the Name of the Sun
The students who were beaten up by Qin Ranlong did indeed have some backing, otherwise they wouldn’t have dared to be so rampant around the university town.
Director Wang’s real name was Wang Zhongjian. An hour ago, he was in an apartment he had bought for his mistress, preparing to roll around in bed with her after a shower when he received a phone call.
Seeing the caller ID, the Deputy Director Wang, who had been spirited and ready to charge into battle for a special three-minute session, immediately became timid!
What happened?
Because this call came from Zhang Yuanxing, the Deputy Director of Ninghai City Police Department! Wang Zhongjian’s direct superior!
The college student Zhang Zhenyang, who was beaten up by Qin Ranlong tonight, was none other than Deputy Director Zhang Yuanxing’s son!
Upon hearing that the deputy director’s son had been beaten up in his jurisdiction, Wang Zhongjian broke out in a cold sweat all over! Ignoring his mistress who was naked on the bed, he hurriedly put on his clothes and rushed out!
With his son beaten so badly that he couldn’t get out of bed for three months, Director Zhang was determined to severely punish the perpetrator! Even the accomplices would not be spared!
If this matter wasn’t handled properly, Wang Zhongjian’s career would never advance further! The possibility of being promoted from the district branch to the city bureau would be almost impossible!
“Who is so damned bold to cause trouble in my district and beat the leader’s son so badly? You’re dead!” Wang Zhongjian was furiously making threats. Currently, they were working on creating a safe jurisdiction. It was said that if they could rank among the top three, the branch leaders would receive bonus points, and it would even be used as a very important indicator for assessment and future promotion reference!
Thinking about this, Wang Zhongjian felt the situation was even more serious. He had to personally handle this matter and give City Bureau Deputy Director Zhang a satisfactory explanation. Otherwise, during the year-end assessment, if Deputy Director Zhang expressed even the slightest dissatisfaction with him, everything would be ruined!
However, what Wang Zhongjian didn’t know was that just as he had left his mistress’s apartment and before he could start his car, his stripped-naked mistress had already taken out her phone. She didn’t show any dissatisfaction but instead revealed a sly smile.
“Hey, that guy went to work again. He probably won’t be back tonight. Come over quickly.” The mistress was making a phone call in bed while rubbing her legs together, looking extremely restless.
Twenty minutes later, the door of the apartment was opened from outside, and a fat man tiptoed in!
If Su Rui were here, he would definitely recognize that this fat man was Zhang Qibing, from whom he had forcibly taken several properties!
Wasn’t this guy already penniless after being forced by Su Rui? How did he suddenly appear here?
“Come quickly, don’t waste time.”
Wang Zhongjian’s mistress jumped out of the covers, completely naked, and hugged Zhang Qibing, saying coquettishly: “I’ve been missing you. How does it feel to mess around with the deputy director’s mistress? Isn’t it exciting?”
“Hehe, exciting, extremely exciting. But why are you in such a hurry? I’ll make you feel good right away.” After saying this, Zhang Qibing pressed the mistress under him, and his thick lips kissed her body!
…
“Interrogate them overnight, no water, no sleep, we must investigate all the details within twenty-four hours!”
Ye Binglan was slightly stunned. Although these methods were commonly used by police, was it appropriate for a district deputy director to say such things in front of outsiders?
Could it be that those injured students really had some formidable background, making Deputy Director Wang so cautious?
Wang Zhongjian pointed at Su Rui and said, “You’d better behave yourself and cooperate with the investigation, otherwise, you’ll suffer the consequences!”
Su Rui looked at Wang Zhongjian, not angry at all, but instead showed an indifferent smile.
Looking carefully, this smile seemed to carry a hint of mockery!
“What are you smiling at?”
Seeing Su Rui’s smile, Wang Zhongjian became even more angry because he felt Su Rui was mocking him! His eyes were full of contempt!
“Why am I smiling? It’s simple.” A hint of coldness suddenly appeared in Su Rui’s smile: “I’m smiling at your failure to enforce the law impartially, I’m smiling at how you’re betraying that police uniform and the badge on your head!”
“Police need to be fair, just, and transparent. If you as law enforcement can’t position yourself correctly, then wearing that uniform loses its meaning. To use an inappropriate metaphor, you’re just a wolf in human skin.”
A wolf in human skin!
Actually, Su Rui’s mood today was generally good, except for being a bit angry when hearing about Ke Ning’s news, but he had already adjusted. Especially after seeing Ye Binglan and the justice-minded Officer Liu at the police station, his mood improved even more. However, whenever Su Rui was in a good mood, someone would always come along to ruin it.
In today’s society, people with passion and righteousness are rare. Many people allow their blood to cool and then go with the flow, heading towards the direction of maximum benefit. They only think about tempting profits but forget about the principles that should exist in their bones.
The vast majority of police are righteous, but there are always one or two bad apples that spoil the whole batch, because these bad apples might hold high positions, and those below them are forced to listen due to pressure—just like Officer Liu who is currently silent.
Therefore, when he saw Wang Zhongjian reprimanding two justice-filled police officers for personal gain, trying to distort facts and deliberately guide the case in another direction, Su Rui’s anger rose uncontrollably.
Even in the Western dark world where absolute profit is supreme, without rules to follow or principles to speak of, the brave and battle-skilled Sun God Apollo was an anomaly. He had no rules in his eyes, but he had his own standards of right and wrong. As long as he believed certain things or people seriously violated his moral standards, he would punish them severely.
What many people didn’t expect was that the trend started by the Sun God Apollo gained respect from many people and gradually spread. Several of the twelve gods began to subtly change their ways of doing things.
Because of the existence of an anomaly like Su Rui, the Western dark world subtly revealed a glimmer of light! It must be said that this was the most wonderful thing that had happened in the Western dark world that had existed for thousands of years!
From this perspective, Comrade Apollo was truly a good young man who spread positive energy everywhere and was full of righteousness.
Hearing Su Rui’s words, Officer Liu’s face showed shame. Although he was a young police officer full of justice, when facing a clear choice between right and wrong, when facing criticism from a senior leader, he still chose silence.
Therefore, Officer Liu now felt his face burning, and even his heart seemed to be on fire.
Ye Binglan looked at Su Rui with surprise. This man who liked to joke and solve problems with violence actually said such words, which couldn’t help but surprise her.
Su Rui’s words deeply touched Ye Binglan. She couldn’t help but think about her original intention when joining the criminal police team and the oath she took when graduating in front of the police badge. Wearing a police uniform but doing illegal things was no different from being a wolf in human skin!
Ye Binglan was obviously lost in thought, but Su Rui’s words clearly had no effect on Wang Zhongjian.
Deputy Director Wang also smiled coldly: “I’ve been a police officer for almost thirty years. I don’t need you to teach me how to do my job. There were many eyewitnesses at the scene. You seriously injured people, which constitutes a crime, and must receive appropriate punishment.”
“But so many eyewitnesses testified that I didn’t lay a hand on anyone. If Deputy Director Wang thinks I did, did you see it with your own eyes or hear it with your own ears? If you neither saw nor heard it, why can you assert so definitely that I seriously injured someone? Are all the people present blind? Or is Deputy Director Wang making things up?”
Su Rui smiled slightly, his smile full of coldness: “Deputy Director Wang, I can tell you the truth. If I wanted to leave now, none of you could stop me. If I haven’t left, it means I’m staying voluntarily.”
After a pause, Su Rui’s words were filled with threatening implications: “And my voluntary stay is definitely not good news for you.”
“I really don’t know where your confidence comes from! Let’s see if you can still speak so boldly after a few hours!” With his mind set on giving his superior Deputy Director Zhang Yuanxing a satisfactory explanation, Wang Zhongjian didn’t take Su Rui’s words to heart.
After saying this, Wang Zhongjian turned to Ye Binglan and said: “Binglan, you take the lead on this matter. We must fight a beautiful battle! Complete the task assigned by the superior leaders! I leave this to you. I’m going to check another interrogation room.”
With that, Wang Zhongjian turned and left, giving Ye Binglan no chance to speak.
Su Rui looked at this beautiful female police officer, showing a comfortable smile: “Although you wear a police uniform, I have to admit, you’re not the same kind of person as him.”
Hearing this, Ye Binglan’s smile was somewhat bitter, seemingly not much relieved by Su Rui’s praising words: “Although I’m happy to hear you say that, but…”
Su Rui shook his head: “There are no ‘buts’. My staying might put you in a dilemma, but you should understand that this is not targeting you. I’m just addressing this common phenomenon to seek justice for myself.”
“I understand what you’re saying.”
Su Rui’s performance tonight seemed to have given Ye Binglan a new understanding of this person. If before today, Su Rui was just an ordinary passerby in her life with no necessity for further interaction, then after today, they had the foundation to become friends.
In this city where she had lived for only a few years, it was the first time Ye Binglan felt something in her heart being stimulated, bringing out resonance. At this moment, there was something different in her eyes when she looked at Su Rui.
“You should go,” Ye Binglan suddenly said.
