146: Yang Weiguo's Past

After taking a few breaths of fresh air, Yang Weiguo finally recovered.

He looked down at Geng Long, who was still lying on the ground unconscious, and his face instantly changed to one of shock.

“Geng Long!”

“Brother Yang, you know this person!”

Qin Shou couldn't help but look puzzled, wondering how Yang Weiguo knew a killer from the Ye family.

“Brother Qin, is this person really beaten like this by you?”

Yang Weiguo looked incredulous, his gaze at Qin Shou was as if he was looking at Superman.

“Cough, cough—!”

Qin Shou awkwardly cleared his throat twice, activating his Skill and forcefully pretending to be impressive, saying, “This person indeed has some abilities, but his martial arts are not as good as mine.

I beat him to the ground with a set of Tiger-Crane-Dragon Form Fist.”

Qin Shou thought to himself, 'How can I tell you that I won because of athlete's foot?

If anyone found out, I'd be utterly humiliated.'

“Hahaha! Brother Qin, you’ve helped me a great deal this time!”

Yang Weiguo clapped Qin Shou’s shoulders heavily, brimming with joy.

He didn't doubt Qin Shou's words, as he had witnessed Qin Shou's methods against the zombies last time.

In his opinion, Qin Shou had too many secrets, so it was not surprising that he could capture Geng Long.

“Captain Yang, what exactly is going on here?

How do you know this person?”

Xue Min on the side was still completely confused, totally in the dark.

Yang Weiguo looked at Xue Min, sighed, and explained, “Xiao Min, you know that I, Brother Yang, used to be in the special forces.

These past few years, because of my age and physical condition, I couldn’t keep up with the intensity of the special forces, so I retired and came to the Criminal Police Team.”

“Hmm, yes, I know that, but what does that have to do with you knowing him?”

Xue Min nodded, still looking puzzled.

A hint of grief and indignation suddenly flashed across Yang Weiguo’s face as he sighed, “Do you know that this person was once my comrade?”

“What?

He was Captain Yang, your comrade!”

Xue Min looked surprised.

She knew Yang Weiguo's identity.

Yang Weiguo was the most skilled person in the Criminal Police Team, having retired from a special department.

It was said that he had carried out countless extremely dangerous missions in the past, and because of injuries, he could no longer perform those dangerous tasks, so he was assigned to the Criminal Police Team.

Yang Weiguo nodded, his voice a bit desolate, “That's right, he was not only my comrade, but also the most outstanding person in our team back then, codenamed Black Panther, simply because he was as keen as a panther, and no prey he set his eyes on ever escaped his grasp.”

“Then why would he—!”

Xue Min pointed at Geng Long on the ground, not understanding why such a person would chase Qin Shou.

Yang Weiguo shook his head and said, “I don’t know what grudge he has with Brother Qin.

However, he is no longer my comrade, but a mortal enemy.

When our team was on a special mission in Africa, for some unknown reason, he had a conflict with our team leader, accidentally killing the leader, and also sold our intelligence to the local terrorist organization, causing our team, except for me, to perish.

My chronic illness was also acquired at that time, which is why I had to retire.

I once swore that I would avenge my fallen comrades, but Geng Long was simply too formidable.

Over so many years, despite numerous encirclements, he always managed to escape.”

Saying that, Yang Weiguo once again heavily patted Qin Shou's shoulder, his face full of gratitude, “Brother Qin, for this matter, I, Yang Weiguo, owe you a favor.

I will definitely repay you when I have the chance.”

Qin Shou could see the sincerity in Yang Weiguo's eyes, and Yang Weiguo had a soldier's unique sense of reliability, which suited Qin Shou's taste.

Qin Shou waved his hand, not caring, “Brother Yang, we are all friends, there's no need for such formalities.”

“Understood, but this time, no matter what, I must thank you.

How about this, let’s find a time, and I’ll treat you to a meal, and I also want to ask for your help.”

Yang Weiguo nodded.

“Help, what kind of help?” Qin Shou couldn't help but look puzzled, thinking, 'How can I help you police officers?'

“Hehe, Brother Qin, with your Skill, I want to invite you to be our Criminal Police Team’s combat instructor.”

“Let’s not, Brother Yang, my fighting is just wild brawling, not presentable.

Winning against Geng Long was purely luck.”

Upon hearing this, Qin Shou quickly waved his hand, thinking to himself, 'I only have a set of Wing Chun rewarded by the system, and I don't even get a chance to use it against a real master, relying entirely on athlete's foot in the end.

Is that something I can teach?

Besides, I need to make money, where would I find the time to teach you Criminal Police Officers how to fight?'

Yang Weiguo could tell Qin Shou's reluctance, and he couldn't help but shake his head in disappointment, “Alas, if that’s the case, then I won’t force you.

I hope we’ll still have opportunities to cooperate in the future.”

After speaking, Yang Weiguo suddenly remembered something and continued, “Oh, right, Brother Qin, Nuo Nuo’s identification has been processed.

You can go to the police station to pick it up sometime soon.”

“Okay, I appreciate your trouble with this, Brother Yang.”

Qin Shou nodded.

With Nuo Nuo's identification, many things would be much more convenient.

“Ugh!”

As the two were chatting, they suddenly heard Geng Long's groan from the ground.

Yang Weiguo's expression sharpened, and he became as if facing a formidable enemy, quickly squatting down to handcuff Geng Long.

At the same time, he swiftly searched Geng Long's entire body, disarming all the short knives, steel needles, and various other assassination weapons and blades he carried.

After doing all this, Yang Weiguo still felt uneasy, as ordinary handcuffs couldn't restrain a Xuan-rank Master.

He then casually sealed several of Geng Long's acupuncture points before finally relaxing.

His Skill in acupuncture point sealing would certainly not be understood by an ordinary Criminal Police Officer, but he had, after all, come from a special department and was once a master before his injury, so he knew a few things.

It was clear that Yang Weiguo was indeed extremely wary of Geng Long.

After this series of actions, Geng Long had already woken up.

The moment he saw Yang Weiguo, Geng Long instinctively exclaimed, “Xiao Yang!

It’s actually you.”

“Shut up, you’re not qualified to call me that.”

Yang Weiguo said with a cold expression.

“Heh heh!”

Geng Long sneered, “I’ve done so much for the higher-ups, what good have I gotten?

A body full of injuries.

That mission back then, it was just a few of us, clearly sending us to our deaths.

Why should I go?”

“We are soldiers, it is our duty.

You betrayed us, you betrayed our brothers.” Yang Weiguo roared.

“Bah, to hell with your duty!

All I wanted in this life was to live happily.

That mission, the higher-ups abandoned us.

What's wrong with me seeking a way out for myself?”

Geng Long spat, his face full of disdain.

“Hmph!

I suggest you tell all this to the judge.”

Yang Weiguo snorted coldly, not bothering to argue with Geng Long any further.

“Beep, beep, beep—!”

As the two were arguing, Qin Shou’s phone rang.

Qin Shou picked up his phone and saw that it was Zhang Wei calling.
