3: The driver rushed directly into the police station
As the driver fell silent, the others dared not speak, only glaring at the hooligan.
The hooligan didn't care; in fact, people glaring at him made him even more pleased.
He arrogantly pointed at a few passengers nearby, "Don't you have eyes? Can't you see I'm flirting with a girl? Get to the front!"
Several passengers, intimidated by his lewd power, reluctantly but obediently moved to the front of the bus.
An entire bus full of people was actually subdued by one hooligan; truly, the world was going downhill.
The honest middle-aged Man in shorts, sitting at the back, also wanted to squeeze to the front, but before he could, the hooligan impatiently stood in the middle of the aisle, lewdly teasing the Young woman, blocking his way.
The hooligan wasn't in a hurry; he just kept brushing his hand near the Young woman's body and hair, an almost-there gesture that made the Young woman scream incessantly.
Beast!
Everyone cursed in their hearts! But no one stepped forward to help; they only condemned him mentally.
Only the Man in shorts at the back slowly sat down, placed his backpack on his chest, and quietly reached his right hand into the backpack, nervously fumbling for something.
Just then, the hooligan, who had been molesting the Young woman, suddenly changed his expression, grabbed her, and as she screamed, pushed her towards the front of the bus.
Immediately after, he clenched his right fist, his eyes fixed on the honest Man in shorts at the back, and punched him hard in the face.
While the honest Man in shorts was stunned, the hooligan grabbed his right arm, pulled it back forcefully, yanking his right hand out of the backpack, and then twisted it back hard at the shoulder.
The honest Man in shorts cried out in pain and stood up.
The hooligan kneed him in the abdomen, followed by two heavy punches!
With a smack, he knocked the man to the ground.
This sudden change stunned everyone on the bus.
Wasn't this hooligan teasing the beautiful woman?
How did it turn into a fight?
The Young woman was also bewildered; had her looks faded?
She subconsciously twisted her shoulders, making her curves more prominent, then tilted her head towards the hooligan... Baiyun Police Station.
Xie Changkun, who was about to get a minivan, was chatting with Zheng Yongnian with a fawning smile.
He kept looking at his watch, his face growing darker with worry!
Police officers were supposed to report at 8 AM, but it was already 8:10, and Ye Lin still hadn't arrived!
He was too disorganized and undisciplined.
No wonder he received 5 demerits at the Police Academy.
Zheng Yongnian on the other side also looked helpless; what was Ye Lin doing?
If it weren't for the repeated instructions from his superiors that this was the Ministry of Public Security's talent recruitment plan, the first batch of talents, he would have already erupted.
He quietly glanced at Xie Changkun beside him, worried that this old man might go back on his word!
However, he didn't know that besides being annoyed, Xie Changkun was also wondering if he could get another minivan!
Greedy!
Suddenly, a public bus drove directly into the Police Station's gate.
With a screeching halt, it stopped in front of Xie Changkun and Zheng Yongnian.
The driver flung open the door, jumped out of the driver's seat, and shouted:
"Chief Xie! There's a hooligan, molesting a beautiful woman and assaulting someone in broad daylight!"
This heroic act made passengers give the driver a thumbs-up; they had thought he was a coward, but it turned out he was playing a strategic game, driving directly to the Police Station. Now the hooligan couldn't escape.
Xie Changkun was already fuming, and hearing about a hooligan in broad daylight on his territory, especially with a superior present, was a direct slap in his face.
He waved his hand and immediately led his men to rush forward.
Several police officers rushed up and saw that, sure enough, the hooligan was bullying someone.
The hooligan had his back to them, twisting the honest Man in shorts's hands behind his back, his knee pressed firmly against his neck.
The honest Man in shorts, seeing the police arrive, still tried to struggle.
The hooligan "slapped" him, saying, "Don't you dare move!"
"Stop!" Chief Xie roared.
Too arrogant, absolutely too arrogant!
This was too disrespectful to Xie Changkun; when did such a hooligan appear on their Baiyun Street, daring to act up in front of him!
He glanced at Zheng Yongnian, who was outside the bus; the Branch Bureau Director was now looking at him with a serious expression. If he didn't handle this well, he probably wouldn't even have the nerve to ask for that minivan.
"I am Xie Changkun, the Director of Baiyun Police Station. I order you to release him now, or we will take coercive measures." Xie Changkun swiftly pulled out his police baton.
The hooligan, hearing that the police had arrived, immediately turned to look.
"Ye Lin?"
Xie Changkun was stunned after clearly seeing the hooligan's face.
Wasn't this hooligan Ye Lin, the talent he was getting in exchange for the minivan?
The hooligan grinned, didn't stand up, but continued to press down on the Man in shorts, stylishly shaking his middle-parted hair, "Hello, Chief Xie, trainee officer Ye Lin reporting for duty!"
Xie Changkun frowned and asked, "What's going on?"
"Reporting, Chief Xie, I suspect this person tried to set the bus on fire."
The honest Man in shorts, hearing this, became anxious and shook his chubby face, saying, "I didn't, I didn't do anything."
Ye Lin raised his hand and slapped him, "By the time you 'did' it, it would be too late, people would already be dead."
"Stop! Mind your discipline!" Xie Changkun's face turned green.
Regardless of whether this person was a suspect, he couldn't be beaten in public; there were citizens on the bus and a superior outside, it was inappropriate for anyone to see.
Police officers nowadays were not like in the past; back then, they would beat people first, then question them.
Now it was different; the superiors were talking about civilized law enforcement, and the public had places to report, so no one dared to act recklessly.
This Ye Lin was quite a troublemaker, no wonder he received 5 demerits.
"Chief Xie, have someone get that backpack; it must contain gasoline," Ye Lin called out.
"Release him first, then we'll talk about the rest," Xie Changkun said with a dark expression.
Why wasn't he getting it? He was still holding the person down.
Ye Lin grabbed the Man in shorts's hair and pulled him up directly.
Now, all the passengers erupted.
"The police are hitting people!"
"This is outrageous, breaking the law while enforcing it!"
"Arrest him, such a police officer must be arrested and severely punished."
Several other passengers, who seemed more discerning, immediately ran off the bus to complain to Zheng Yongnian.
Zheng Yongnian glared at Xie Changkun and Ye Lin; he had no choice but to get on the bus to control the situation.
"Hello everyone, I am Zheng Yongnian from the Xishan District Police Department. Please give us some time; we will definitely handle this properly."
Zheng Yongnian patiently explained to the surrounding crowd.
"Control the Man in shorts, then go get that backpack."
Several police officers swarmed forward, taking the Man in shorts from Ye Lin, but as per the Director's instructions, they still firmly restrained the Man in shorts.
The other officers rushed to the back and found the backpack under a seat.
One of them unzipped the backpack and his face changed drastically, "Director Zheng, it's a gasoline bottle!"
With that, he took out a glass bottle filled with gasoline from the backpack.
