Chapter 180: Chapter 180 The County Chief Also Arrives

Upon learning that the criminals were at the Northwest Film Theater, all police were called back in the middle of the night for duty.

The police forces from not just Chicheng County but also Zao City were mobilized, creating a massive scene. It was as if they had poured out of their nest, shattering the city’s silence with sirens that filled the air.

In less than half an hour, the entire Northwest Film Theater was surrounded tightly on all sides.

Not only did the police arrive, but even the county leader was there.

"What’s the situation inside now?"

The county leader, in his prime at about forty years old, was robust without the beer belly common among other leaders.

It was, after all, because the county leader had a military background. Having come from the army, he took decisive actions and cared deeply for the people, earning him their affection.

However, his career hadn’t been smooth, leading to his assignment to the remote mountainous region of Chicheng County.

Even though the environment there was tough, the county leader continued to put the welfare of the people first, unchanged from his initial commitment.

Take the introduction of Le Tian Group, for example. The county leader played a significant role in the negotiations, or else Le Tian would have chosen the neighboring county for their location.

Now, with Le Tian Group stationed in Chicheng County, it at least maintained a decent level of economic revenue for the county.

"County leader, the criminals are still inside, but..."

The chief of the police approached the county leader, speaking hesitantly.

"What’s the problem? Speak up, don’t beat around the bush."

The county leader hated it when people didn’t speak their minds fully.

"Zeng Qiang seems to be inside as well!"

After the police chief finished speaking, he constantly watched the county leader’s face. fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com

"Proceed as originally planned, but don’t tell your men he is inside, in case it affects your operation."

At this moment, outside the Northwest Film Theater, the portly police officer and the captain of the armed police had also arrived with their respective teams. If not for the presence of the county leader and the chief, they would have been eager to charge in right away.

Their bet depended on this very moment.

Previously, they had argued so fiercely in the courtyard of the police station that they made a wager.

Whoever caught the criminals and gunned them down first would be declared the winner, and the loser would have to resign.

Both were stubborn and refused to lose, having made their bet in front of so many; even the police chief overheard from the window, so neither could renege.

Therefore, both were desperate to be the first to rush in.

Just then, the chief of police came over, and both men immediately sandwiched him from the left and right.

"Chief, our armed police are better equipped and professionally trained, let us take the lead and scout the situation for you!"

The captain of the armed police hurried to get in first.

"Chief, this is inappropriate. These criminals were caught in our Chicheng County; it should definitely be us going first!"

After saying this, the portly officer whispered something to the chief of police.

"You need to look out for our own comrades. The detectives are going to be coming out soon, and you surely have to let us go first, this credit must not be stolen by others!"

"By what right! Chicheng County is still under Zao City’s jurisdiction. We are dispatched from the city. Why should it be you who go first!"

The captain of the armed police immediately retorted upon hearing this.

"This is territorial jurisdiction! You stand on Chicheng County’s ground, you follow our orders! Go stand aside and obey!"

The portly police officer spoke with bluster and defiance.

"I’m telling you..."

"Have you had enough? Shut up, both of you. After the case is closed, go back and bicker all you want!"

The chief of police, caught in the middle, was in a difficult position, faced with a loyal officer who had served for many years on one side, and the specially dispatched captain of the armed police on the other.

Losing either of them pained the chief of police. So, he deliberately delayed by saying,

"Let’s wait for the detectives to come back and see what the specific situation inside is."

No sooner had he spoken than the officers responsible for reconnaissance came running out.

"What’s the situation inside now, are there any hostages being held, do you need our support to go in?"

Before the police chief could even ask, the armed police captain was already impatiently asking.

"The bandits inside..."

"The bandits are very formidable, aren’t they? No problem, we have a lot of experience in fighting bandits, let me and my men go in first and clean them up!"

The chubby officer didn’t wait for the investigator to finish speaking and eagerly leapt into action, wanting to rush inside with his men.

"No! Listen to me first!"

"So what exactly is the situation inside?"

The chubby officer and the armed police captain asked in unison.

"The bandits inside... have been subdued!"

"What?"

"What?"

The chubby officer and the armed police captain were both stunned, and even the police chief was very surprised.

"What’s the situation now?" freewebnovёl.ƈom

After hearing this, the county head was also greatly shocked and came over with a look of astonishment to ask.

"Inside, one of the four bandits is dead and three are seriously injured, all on the second floor of the cinema, and all have surrendered and disarmed. Eight hostages are dead, two are injured, and two are still unconscious."

The investigator hurriedly answered.

"But who subdued these bandits?"

The armed police captain asked incredulously.

"It was Wang Hao, the one who reported the crime, who subdued them!"

"What? How many people did Wang Hao bring with him, and was anyone injured?"

The chubby officer stepped forward, worriedly asking.

"This... Wang Hao was alone..."

The investigator spoke hesitantly, despite having witnessed Wang Hao subduing the bandits by himself, he was still somewhat unwilling to believe it.

"Alone?"

"He subdued four bandits by himself?"

The eyes of the chubby officer and the armed police captain nearly popped out of their heads in shock.

"This... that’s hardly possible!"

Even the police chief found it hard to believe.

"But the bandits inside were indeed controlled by Wang Hao alone, and even their weapons were confiscated by Wang Hao!"

The investigator hurriedly pulled out the handgun Wang Hao had given him, stunning everyone present all over again.

Wang Hao had single-handedly taken down four armed bandits with his bare hands, a scenario they dared not even imagine.

Under the shock, the police chief quickly led people into the second floor of the cinema.

Upon reaching the second floor, they were stunned by the sight before them; several bandits were kneeling on the ground, hands raised in surrender.

Zeng Qiang’s underlings had all met a gruesome end, and everyone could only think that it was the work of these few bandits; no one would suspect any involvement from Wang Hao.

Hiding in the corner, Zeng Qiang screamed ceaselessly, frightened by the large number of policemen, until a team of medical staff came in and carried him out.

"Wang Hao, was it really you alone who dealt with these four bandits?"

The chubby officer hurriedly walked up to Wang Hao and asked in shock, not quite believing his eyes despite what he had seen.

"These men were famously vicious, and our entire city mobilized thousands of officers and still failed to capture them, and you... you managed it alone..."

The armed police captain was equally dumbfounded, unable to believe what he was seeing.

Everyone looked at Wang Hao with puzzled faces, all eager to know what exactly had happened inside...
