91: Turning against someone faster than flipping through a book

"Which lawless individual dares to cause trouble here, to commit robbery in broad daylight?"

Sure enough, about ten minutes later, Qin Shou heard a low voice outside Zhao's Gold Shop.

Qin Shou's eyebrows twitched slightly; the voice sounded somewhat familiar, yet he couldn't recall where he had heard it before.

"Brother Jiang, that kid is incredibly bold. Not only does he not run, but he also sits inside nonchalantly, completely disregarding everyone! You must uphold justice for my brother!"

Another voice chimed in obsequiously.

Indeed, Qin Shou also found this voice somewhat familiar.

"Oh my, Officer Jiang, big brother, you've finally arrived!"

As soon as Zhao Gang heard that his powerful backer had arrived, he immediately put on a fawning smile and bowed obsequiously as he went out to greet them.

"Speak, who dares to rob here?"

The leading Police officer asked sternly, deliberately raising his voice and putting on an act.

"Officer, the person is sitting right inside, even threatening to wait for the Police to arrive. He's utterly arrogant! This is a society governed by law, yet there's still such anArrogant person. You must teach him a good lesson!"

Zhao Gang said with a face full of smiles, pointing at Qin Shou, who was sitting in the corner, looking down at his phone.

"Hmph! Absolutely lawless! Boss Zhao, don't worry, I will enforce the law impartially and show no leniency! I will take him back to the station now for a thorough interrogation to see what he still has to say!"

Officer Jiang said righteously, then strode into the shop.

Qin Shou sat upright, pretending to play on his phone, but in reality, he was observing the commotion outside with the corner of his eye.

When he saw the Police officer walk in, Qin Shou couldn't help but smile, thinking, "Interesting, interesting. I didn't expect this guy to still be in the Police force."

It really was an old acquaintance; Qin Shou never expected the person to be Jiang Fei!

Qin Shou had thought this guy had long been fired, but he never expected to see him again today.

Qin Shou, of course, didn't know that Jiang Fei's family had considerable influence in the City, deeply entrenched, so how could he simply be fired?

Therefore, what Wang Mingrui said about firing him that day was just a show for Ren Jing. Afterward, Jiang Fei was only transferred to a sub-bureau, which, although a demotion, still kept him in the Police force.

Even more coincidentally, Zhao Gang's elder brother was also an old acquaintance of Qin Shou's, his former boss, and Yan Yourong's ex-husband—Zhao Ruilong!

"Kid, is it you? How dare you come here to rob Boss Zhao's gold in broad daylight?"

Jiang Fei walked arrogantly, swaggering up to Qin Shou, looking down at him with an impatient expression.

However, as he got closer to Qin Shou, he couldn't help but feel a little nervous, always feeling that the person in front of him looked familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere before.

"Yes! It's me!"

Qin Shou's lips curved slightly into a smile. He slowly raised his head, his eyes fixed on Jiang Fei with interest.

"It—it—! It's—you!"

When Jiang Fei clearly saw that the person in front of him was Qin Shou, he was instantly scared out of his wits, instinctively stepping back two paces, stammering, unable to utter a complete sentence for a long time.

"What a coincidence! Officer Jiang, we meet again. I remember you were fired, weren't you? What, do you want to take me to the station again for another round of torture and forced confession?"

Qin Shou stared at Jiang Fei with a playful smile, a hint of mockery in his tone.

"Cough, cough—a misunderstanding, hehe, it must be a misunderstanding, Brother Qin, you're looking well!"

Jiang Fei coughed twice, immediately smiling and changing his demeanor, his attitude becoming incredibly obsequious, completely forgetting that he had just been aggressively trying to arrest Qin Shou.

"You son of a bitch!"

Before Jiang Fei finished speaking, Zhao Ruilong suddenly exploded like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. He was furious, yelling at Qin Shou with all his might, stretching out his finger, almost poking Qin Shou's nose.

"What, it's me! So what? Didn't I satisfy you enough last time? Still looking for trouble?"

Qin Shou remained composed, his eyebrows twitching slightly, a hint of provocation in his eyes.

"Officer Jiang, this bastard, he not only robbed my brother's gold shop, he also... he also..."

Zhao Ruilong was so angry when he saw Qin Shou that he became incoherent, somewhat breathless.

"What else did I do? Hehe, Zhao Ruilong, I have to say, little Rongrong is really, really 'very—moist—indeed!'"

When he said the words "very moist," Qin Shou deliberately emphasized his tone, as if fearing Zhao Ruilong hadn't heard clearly.

"You—you—, Officer Jiang, you must help me kill this son of a bitch."

Zhao Ruilong was already stomping his feet in anger, completely losing his mind, acting like a madman, wishing he could tear Qin Shou to pieces immediately.

"Presumptuous!"

However, to Zhao Ruilong's utter surprise, Jiang Fei suddenly turned his head and roared at him, "Zhao Ruilong, what do you think you are? We Police handle cases according to procedure and law! You say kill whoever you want? You simply disregard the law!"

"This—what does this mean? Officer Jiang, we agreed before we came..."

"Shut up! Who agreed with you?"

Jiang Fei's heart jumped. Fearing Zhao Ruilong would blurt out too much, he didn't wait for Zhao Ruilong to finish speaking. He suddenly raised his hand and slapped Zhao Ruilong hard across the face.

With a crisp "slap," a purplish-red handprint immediately appeared on Zhao Ruilong's face, with five clear finger marks.

Zhao Ruilong covered his face, completely stunned, his mind blank, unable to believe what was happening before his eyes.

Zhao Gang, who was beside him, was also dumbfounded, his mouth wide open, his jaw almost hitting the floor.

Zhao Ruilong's business could grow so large partly because many of his ventures were somewhat illicit. He could be said to be deeply involved with several corrupt officers in this Police precinct, colluding and working together. He had never seen Jiang Fei turn hostile so quickly, like turning a page in a book, almost as if he were a completely different person.

"Zhao Gang, what exactly is going on? Get me the surveillance footage; I want to see how the incident unfolded!"

Jiang Fei, abandoning his usual image of shielding and indulging, suddenly spoke to Zhao Gang with a serious and stern tone, leaving no room for doubt.

"This—Officer Jiang, why do we need to check surveillance? Have you misunderstood something? We were the ones who reported it first!"

Zhao Gang immediately panicked. He completely failed to understand the current situation; the turn of events had completely exceeded his expectations, leaving him somewhat caught off guard.

"Brother, what are they doing? Why are they all acting so crazy!"

Nuo Nuo, innocent and naive, blinked her big, watery eyes, watching the dramatic changes before her, her face full of confusion, and asked Qin Shou curiously.

"Hehe, them! They're acting. Nuo Nuo, be good, watch the show, and when it's over, big brother will take you to eat something delicious."

Qin Shou smiled and pinched Nuo Nuo's little cheek.

"Hehe, thank you, big brother. This show is good, Nuo Nuo likes to watch it."

Nuo Nuo nodded obediently, a sweet smile on her face.
