111: Come out in full force!
"Guo Li Steel Factory!"
The operator's eyes widened in shock.
Two Police Inspectors, who had just picked up their car keys and were about to drive off, also stopped in their tracks, looking over with grave expressions.
"Is... is there a problem?"
The Intern Police Officer looked puzzled.
He didn't understand why everyone looked so serious. Could there be some secret about this place?
"Did that person explain the specific situation to you?"
The operator asked the Intern seriously.
"No, she just said that some people, armed with weapons, had surrounded them."
The Intern replied truthfully.
"Are people causing trouble at Guo Li Steel Factory?"
The operator couldn't help but guess.
He remembered the previous meeting.
Director Yu had specifically mentioned Guo Li Steel Factory, urging them to maintain normal order at the Steel Factory.
Once anyone was found causing trouble at the Steel Factory,
they were to act immediately, arrest the troublemakers, and ensure that production at the Steel Factory was not affected.
Regarding Director Yu's words,
he hadn't fully understood them at the time.
It wasn't until he saw the National Daily's weekly publication that he understood why Director Yu had issued such an order.
This unassuming Steel Factory
had surprisingly developed a Numerical Control Machine Tool, breaking the Western countries' technological blockade on Numerical Control Machine Tools!
How important was the Numerical Control Machine Tool?
With this thing, it meant that the time required for Rabbit Country's modernization would be directly cut in half!
What's more,
the Numerical Control Machine Tool developed by this Steel Factory had an accuracy far exceeding the machines the country had purchased at great expense.
Just from this, one could imagine how important this factory was to the country!
At the meeting,
two out of every three sentences from Director Yu emphasized protecting the public order of this area, especially the public order of the Steel Factory.
It must have been emphasized to Director Yu by the higher-ups.
Otherwise,
Director Yu would certainly not have repeatedly stressed it to them during the meeting.
Thinking of this,
the operator couldn't help but shout to his colleagues: "Everyone to Guo Li Steel Factory! Someone is causing trouble there!"
Upon hearing this,
the Police Inspectors working in the bureau immediately put down their work and stood up.
"Kid, you come with us too."
An Old Police Officer shouted to the Intern.
"Master, are you sure I should go too?"
The Intern pointed at himself, his face full of disbelief.
He had only recently arrived at the Police Inspector Bureau.
Logically, he shouldn't be assigned to respond to calls.
The Old Police Officer didn't mind.
"Don't you want to go? I'm telling you, if this matter is handled well, it'll be a great achievement, and your promotion to full-time will be practically a sure thing! But... if you don't want to go, then forget it."
Upon hearing this,
the Intern looked astonished.
Just by going once, his promotion would be a sure thing? Was there such a good thing in the world?
"I'll go, I'll go."
Coming back to his senses,
he excitedly agreed.
...
"Master, we're all going to the Steel Factory. What if something happens later and someone calls the police, but there's no police force to respond?"
In the police car,
the Intern asked the Old Police Officer with concern.
"You're just an Intern, why are you worried about that? If something happens, we'll take responsibility. What's more... protecting the production order of the Steel Factory, that's an order personally issued by Director Yu. Why do you think Director Yu attaches so much importance to it?"
The Old Police Officer smiled faintly, pulled out a cigarette, put it in the corner of his mouth, lit it, and took a puff.
"An order from Director Yu?"
The Intern felt a little surprised.
It was truly rare for an enterprise to be so highly valued by the Director of a County Police Inspector Bureau.
As for the Old Police Officer's question,
the Intern only thought for a moment before blurting out:
"Is it the intention of the leaders above?"
The Old Police Officer smiled without speaking, just quietly smoking his cigarette, exhaling white smoke.
Seeing this,
the Intern's eyes were full of surprise.
He naturally understood the meaning of his master's action; if he didn't deny it, it meant implicit affirmation.
What kind of existence was this enterprise, which even the leaders above valued?
Police cars sped through the streets, surprising pedestrians.
"The police cars are driving so fast today!"
"What's going on? Has someone died? Otherwise, why are they driving so fast?"
"Driving so fast, is something big happening?"
"Several police cars, all full of people. What kind of event warrants such a large-scale response?"
"That direction, it seems to be that dilapidated Steel Factory."
...
At the same time,
in front of the gate of Guo Li Steel Factory.
The three-person group, surrounded by a crowd of workers, now had faces as pale as paper.
Facing the aggressive crowd, the three besieged individuals no longer spoke any arrogant words.
A wise man adapts to circumstances.
Although the Foreign man didn't know this saying, he deeply understood the principle.
At this moment,
apart from the woman, the other two men's faces were covered with several overlapping palm prints.
"You were so arrogant! Weren't you very arrogant just now? Why aren't you continuing?"
"Foreigners' faces are just thick; my hand hurts from slapping him."
"He even dared to insult the boss; I think he simply didn't put us in his eyes!"
After venting,
most of the anger in everyone's hearts had dissipated.
The three people in the field, under the verbal criticism of the crowd, appeared timid and unsure whether to stand or sit.
Just then,
a dark figure suddenly darted out from inside the factory.
"Stop!"
Everyone looked back and saw Li Mubai rushing towards them at an extremely fast speed.
"Boss."
"Boss."
"..."
Everyone's faces showed respect as they called out.
"Where are they?"
Li Mubai didn't waste words and immediately asked.
Upon hearing this,
the crowd, who had formed a circle around the three, automatically parted, creating a path.
Li Mubai looked along this small path.
He saw the three standing timidly in the center of the field, two of whom had blue eyes and brown hair, clearly Foreign men.
If so,
the Foreign man's face also had red handprints.
It was obvious he had been beaten.
"You!"
Li Mubai looked at the employees reproachfully, wanting to say some words of reprimand, but couldn't bring himself to do so.
After all,
these people had also acted because they heard he had been insulted.
Finally,
Li Mubai just said, in a tone of disappointment: "Why don't you all hurry back to work!"
To be beaten like this, although there was no life-threatening danger and no blood, the palm prints on their faces were clearly visible.
If the Police Inspector came, how could they explain it clearly?
Seeing this,
everyone could only sullenly return to the factory building.
Seeing the crowd leave,
the fear in the Foreign man's heart finally subsided by more than half, and a trace of arrogance once again emerged from his eyes.
He sized up Li Mubai: "Are you the person in charge here? (german)"
Li Mubai frowned.
He knew the other party was speaking german, but he didn't know the language.
"Sir, are you the person in charge of this factory area?"
A voice sounded.
Li Mubai looked and realized it was the Chinese man wearing sunglasses.
Although the other party spoke with confidence, the shattered lens of his sunglasses still made him look a bit disheveled.
"I am."
Li Mubai nodded.
The man in sunglasses translated this to the Foreign man.
Immediately,
a roar came from the Foreign man's mouth:
"Kid, you're finished! You actually dared to have people beat us up! I'm going to report you to the embassy; just wait for the sanctions! (german)"
