Special Expert of Beauty CEO

Chapter 400: Chapter 402: Arrogance! Rudeness!

Through Cao Guojun’s narrative, Qin Tian finally realized that the man with a disdainful expression, who looked as if he had a sanitary napkin stuck to his face, was Xiao Mao, the deputy director of the Jinshan District Police Bureau, an arrogant fellow who thought too highly of himself.

This man usually carried a serious face and never presented a pleasant expression, but upon hearing that Qin Tian and others were allowed by Cao Guojun to come here to assist the police in capturing criminals, his serious face became even more distorted.

As it turned out, Xiao Mao was not only a colleague of Cao Guojun but also his enemy.

When the position of the chief of the Eastern District Police Bureau became vacant, Xiao Mao was hailed as the most likely candidate to become the new chief.

However, as Cao Guojun gained significant merit in capturing Xu Kun, the position of the chief, which was almost within Xiao Mao’s grasp, was forcibly taken away by Cao Guojun.

When a cooked duck flies away, any regular person would be driven up the wall, let alone a ”zombie face” like Xiao Mao?

Xiao Mao directed the Special Forces and his subordinates to quickly assemble, completely ignoring Qin Tian and his team in the process.

A few minutes later, Xiao Mao’s large troop was ready to march into the mountains.

”Officer Xiao, Zhongyi Hall still has two hostages in their possession, and if you go hunting in the mountains with such a large display, the hostages might be in danger,”

Thinking of Murong Fei and Meng Yao’s safety, Qin Tian still stood up and tried to stop Xiao Mao.

Xiao Mao obviously did not expect Qin Tian to dare to confront him, and he stared at Qin Tian, his lips twitching, ”Yang Cheng, search them, make sure they are not people from Zhongyi Hall!”

After speaking, Xiao Mao’s gaze still fixed on Qin Tian, ”Qin Tian, right? I’m giving you a warning. When we police operate, it’s not your place to point fingers. You’d better stay out of this!”

While Xiao Mao spoke, a police officer, accompanied by several other officers, had already begun to search the bodies of the War Dragon Special Combat Team.

Fortunately, this time Qin Tian and his team hadn’t brought guns. After a thorough search, the officer ’Yang Cheng’ reported back to Xiao Mao, ”Director Xiao, they all have daggers, but no firearms or weapons.”

Hearing this, Xiao Mao gave Qin Tian a cold smirk, ”Consider yourself lucky.”

After finished speaking, he waved his hand and led the police, charging into the mountains with overwhelming momentum.

Watching Xiao Mao and the other officers disappear into the woods, the Wild Boar stepped forward and said, ”Boss, what do we do? With the police stepping in, Miss Murong Fei and Officer Meng Yao might be in danger.”

Qin Tian was well aware of the consequences of this incident, but it was something he simply couldn’t stop.

After thinking, Qin Tian reluctantly used his mustached cellphone to call Zeng Sikui.

After several attempts, someone on the other end finally picked up the phone and then handed it over to Zeng Sikui.

”Zeng Lao Er, I’ve already transferred the money you wanted, now, should you release the hostages?” Qin Tian asked.

”Heh, you think I’d release them for ten million? You’re seriously underestimating me! Qin Tian, the Zhonghai City police have already taken notice of my Zhongyi Hall, huh huh. So, I don’t want your company now, I want money. Give me another 20 million by noon today, heh heh, it must be in my account!”

”If my account is tracked or frozen by the police, I’ll kill a hostage immediately!”

”The last 20 million, if I give it to you, will you release the hostages?” Qin Tian asked.

”Hahaha... I’ve already told you, you’re in no position to negotiate with me. This 20 million will be the ransom for the two hostages’ safety! As for when to release them, hahaha, that’ll depend on how obedient you are...”

Hearing this, Qin Tian scoffed, ”Zeng Lao Er, don’t blame me for not warning you, the police have already sent someone to capture you. I didn’t call the cops; it’s the police themselves who found you.”

”Hahaha... Just those incompetent cops in Zhonghai City, let them come!”

Zeng Sikui did not panic at all when he heard the news that police were coming to arrest him, but instead burst out laughing, ”20 million, send it over by noon, and you just remember that, kid. As for the police... heh heh, I’ll teach them a lesson, no need for you to worry!”

After hanging up the phone, Qin Tian fell into deep thought. This mad dog, could he truly be so insane as to not fear the police?

Thinking further on this was already useless. On one hand, Xiao Mao and the Special Forces with police had already moved into the mountains; on the other hand, since Zeng Sikui had said he was not afraid of the police, that at least meant he would not harm Murong Fei and Meng Yao because of this law enforcement issue.

It made sense—Murong Fei and Meng Yao, as hostages, were exactly the leverage Zeng Sikui might use at a critical moment to save his life or to blackmail the police. How could he possibly harm Murong Fei and Meng Yao? As a well-known figure in the Jinshan District, Zeng Sikui must know who Meng Yao’s father was, right?

”Boss, what are we going to do now?”

After a moment of silence, Wild Boar walked up to Qin Tian and asked.

”Follow them. I’ve got a weird feeling about this Zhongyi Hall, I’m afraid the police might not be able to handle them...”

Qin Tian had a premonition that the arrogant Zeng Sikui was not without a foundation for his arrogance; he probably had an ace up his sleeve that no one knew about.

”Let’s move silently, keep an eye on the police’s movements, and we, like the mantis stalking the cicada, with the oriole behind, will strike at the crucial moment to play a critical role!”

Qin Tian, leading the members of the Special Combat Team, left behind their tents and other bulk items, carrying only water, rations, and daggers among other personal items into the woods.

”Boss, if we see guns later, can we claim them for ourselves? Gee, I always feel like something’s missing without a gun. We’ve all trained with replicas back at the base...”

Along the way, Zhang Hanbin ran up, grinning at Qin Tian.

Qin Tian hesitated for a moment, then nodded, ”Don’t touch the police’s guns, but as for those from Zhongyi Hall, whoever grabs them keeps them. Afterwards, you can keep your favorite one when we hand them in back at the base.”

”Great!”

”Awesome!”

”I’ve always wanted a gun of my own!”

”Guys, don’t fight over them later, the guys from Zhongyi Hall aren’t beauties. We might just scare them by charging up.”

”Hahaha...”

The crowd burst into laughter, but Qin Tian wasn’t able to join them.

It was already eight in the morning, and if they couldn’t rescue Murong Fei and the others by twelve noon, things would become perilous.

After all, under the current circumstances, Zeng Sikui’s demand to send 20 million by 12 o’clock was absolutely unattainable!

”Boss! Boss!”

Less than twenty minutes into their trek through the woods, Qin Tian heard Lin Yu’s voice over his earpiece.

”Boss, we’ve spotted a group, six guys, the way they walk looks like they’re military, they should be from Zhongyi Hall. Should we take them down?” Lin Yu said.

Lin Yu was just like that; no matter how many they were or what weaponry they had, he was all swagger, and never showed fear!
