110 yuan? A suspicious takeout order!
"Young Master Xu, why are you delivering takeout again?"
"You were doing matchmaking before. I was even planning to introduce a few clients to you."
Wang Xudong really couldn't keep it together, and the most crucial thing was that he had already anticipated this.
The absurdity of learning that Xu Ning, a designated driver, was actually the young master of a supermarket, was beyond words.
He had even thought that if one day Xu Ning started delivering takeout, he wouldn't find it strange anymore.
But when that day truly arrived, he still found it a bit hard to accept.
Couldn't we just live the life of a rich young master honestly?
Or, how about we switch places?
Xu Ning couldn't explain Wang Xudong's question, so he could only chuckle and say, "I'm just bored."
Wang Xudong nodded silently, thinking, 'That's right, you're just bored, and bored to death.'
"Old Shen, let me introduce you."
"This is Xu Ning, Young Master Xu. He used to be active in our Hanjiang Road Police Station's jurisdiction, so he's had a lot of dealings with me. We're already old acquaintances."
"Do you remember those few cars our Police Station received as donations?"
"They were donated by Young Master Xu!"
Wang Xudong noticed Old Shen's expression and began to introduce him.
Officer Shen's eyes widened instantly; he wasn't even as surprised when he encountered a shocking major case.
What?
This takeout delivery guy is the young master who donated cars to the Hanjiang Road Police Station?
You know, during that period, the Hanjiang Road Police Station receiving donated vehicles from the Residential Complex had caused a huge stir internally.
On one hand, there was surprise, and on the other, envy.
After all, every Police Station, and even every sub-bureau, always had an insufficient number of cars. For the Hanjiang Road Police Station to receive donations was simply a godsend.
Why couldn't such a godsend fall on their own heads!
And now, hearing that this takeout delivery guy in front of him was the one who donated the cars, he couldn't hold back even more.
Those few cars were worth over 1.5 million!
Is delivering takeout that profitable?
Obviously not!
So, he must be very rich himself.
But if you're so rich, why are you still out delivering takeout?
Is this profession so appealing to you?
Just then, the platform assigned Xu Ning another order.
After confirming the order, Xu Ning couldn't chat with them much longer, so he said goodbye and left the Residential Complex.
Only Wang Xudong and Officer Shen were left standing there, looking at each other.
After a good while, they finally suppressed the feeling of absurdity in their hearts.
"Old Shen, Young Master Xu is active in your jurisdiction now, so you should look after him!"
"He seems to have some magical power; all sorts of unexpected things always surround him."
"If you take good care of him... well, that's not quite the right way to put it. Anyway, just make sure you handle things quickly when he calls the Police."
"Maybe Young Master Xu will donate a few cars to you then."
Wang Xudong shared his personal experience.
Even now, whenever he thinks back to continuously receiving Xu Ning's Police calls, he still feels it's absurd.
Officer Shen really wanted to say that their Police Station always dispatched quickly and treated everyone equally without discrimination.
But then he thought of the new cars at the Hanjiang Road Police Station and couldn't help but nod.
It wouldn't be special treatment, but giving him a bit more attention was fine.
However, he never expected that Xu Ning's incident would happen so soon.
Xu Ning had just left less than five minutes ago, and Officer Shen was still talking to Wang Xudong downstairs when his phone rang.
He picked it up and saw it was Xu Ning calling; the number was one he had saved a few minutes earlier.
His expression immediately became incredibly strange; he didn't know why Xu Ning was calling him.
At this moment, Wang Xudong saw the name on the caller ID and immediately reacted.
"Answer it quickly! Young Master Xu must have run into something!" he urged.
He had no doubt about this; Xu Ning used to call him over and over again like this.
Officer Shen immediately answered the phone.
"Officer Shen, I have a suspicious takeout order here!"
"The customer ordered exactly 100 yuan worth of food and then tipped the rider 10 yuan."
"Added together, that's 110 yuan."
"I suspect the customer is in some kind of danger but can't call the Police, so he's using this method to subtly ask for help."
As soon as the call connected, Xu Ning's slightly urgent voice came through.
Hearing Xu Ning's words, Officer Shen also realized something was amiss.
Everyone knew what the number 110 represented.
While it could be a coincidence, it couldn't be truly ignored.
Just like the person who had just ordered Cefazolin and alcohol; if they hadn't insisted on going to their door, the person might not be alive now.
"Where's the address? I'll rush over immediately!" Officer Shen said quickly.
"It's in that same Residential Complex we just left. If you're still walking, just wait there. I'll be there soon!"
Xu Ning hung up after speaking and rode his electric bike back.
Officer Shen was slightly surprised, not expecting it to be the same Residential Complex.
Wang Xudong also realized that something might have happened, so he didn't go home and prepared to follow along.
Soon, Xu Ning arrived carrying a large bag of food.
"Officer Shen, Lao Wang!"
"Look at this."
With that, Xu Ning handed over his phone, showing them the details of the takeout order.
Officer Shen and Wang Xudong both looked serious, confirming that it was indeed as Xu Ning had described.
"Young Master Xu, you can't deliver this time!"
"Take off your clothes and give them to me. I'll pretend to be the takeout delivery guy."
Officer Shen pursed his lips and frowned as he spoke to Xu Ning.
The previous incidents, after all, weren't dangerous; at most, customers were contemplating suicide but wouldn't harm others.
So, it was fine for Xu Ning to deliver them at that time.
But if this time it was truly as they suspected, and the person who ordered takeout was in danger, it wouldn't be appropriate for Xu Ning to deliver.
They couldn't possibly put him in harm's way!
Xu Ning didn't try to be a hero; after all, the Police were definitely more professional in such matters, and if he tried to be a hero, he might inadvertently make things worse.
He took off his clothes, mainly the yellow vest, and handed it to Officer Shen.
Officer Shen took off his Police uniform, threw it to Wang Xudong, and put on Xu Ning's clothes and yellow vest.
Hmm, his demeanor didn't quite match!
Of course, Xu Ning's demeanor didn't resemble a rider either.
But at this point, they couldn't worry about such details. As long as they could get the door open, the subsequent problems would be easy to solve.
Because they were unclear about the situation inside the house, Officer Shen had already called back to the Police Station to request a thermal imager. This instrument could image through obstacles, allowing them to know how many people were inside and their exact positions.
After waiting a few minutes, the equipment from the Police Station arrived, and several more Police Officers also came.
Xu Ning didn't follow them upstairs, mainly because they wouldn't allow him to join the operation.
In roughly less than 10 minutes, the Police Officers were seen escorting a Mentally ill young man out of the unit, followed by a crying girl.
This means... the rescue was successful?
Regardless, Xu Ning finally breathed a sigh of relief.
