Chapter 2486: Chapter 2,550: Which Unit Are You From?
He couldn’t figure it out, but it didn’t matter, because Wang Gang had no way back. He sneered and said, "I’ll deal with you when I return!"
"Pathetic!" Li Yifei shook his head, slowly stood up, and as he did, an aura suddenly erupted. The surrounding SWAT officers felt a tremendous pressure. It was an indescribable feeling, instinctively making them want to step back a little. However, a few seconds later, Li Yifei pushed the chair aside and walked towards Wang Gang.
"What are you doing?" Wang Gang shouted, instinctively feeling flustered. After all, his subordinates weren’t listening to him anymore. Wang Gang was aware of the opponent’s combat abilities, so he instinctively felt a sense of panic.
Li Yifei approached slowly, each step like a heavy drum beat, pounding on Wang Gang’s heart. He didn’t understand why this was happening, so he nervously swallowed and his gaze started to evade. As seasoned individuals, both the instructor and the armed officer were very familiar with Li Yifei’s routine; he was going to make a move.
My god, is he going to beat up a sub-bureau chief in front of more than twenty police officers? What is going on, has this person become this arrogant? There’s really no need to guess how arrogant Li Yifei can be, because the proof is about to unfold.
With a playful smile, Li Yifei took step by step, each one treading on Wang Gang’s heart. Seeing that they were only ten steps apart, Wang Gang finally couldn’t hold back and shouted at the people on both sides, "Are you all blind? Can’t you see he’s about to attack me? Damn you, if I make it out okay, I’ll make trouble for each of you!"
At life’s desperate moments, many things get exposed. All grace and composure become useless. Li Yifei had only taken a few steps when Wang Gang was already on the brink of collapse.
"Director Wang, people often say ’don’t court death and you won’t die.’ I’m curious, how do you interpret this phrase?" Li Yifei took very slow steps, giving Wang Gang plenty of time to answer. He gritted his teeth and said, "Don’t think you can scare me, you thug. I’m telling you, if you dare lay a hand on me, I’ll guarantee you and your family will suffer greatly. I’ll use my power to madly retaliate against you!"
"There are more than twenty people around, over forty ears. Director Wang, to threaten an ordinary citizen like this—oh, a victim indeed—you’re quite the hero. Is this what serving the public looks like? It’s refreshing." Li Yifei chuckled lightly, nonchalantly speaking.
This was really too much. Many officers couldn’t help but purse their lips, although their disdain was directed at Wang Gang, not Li Yifei. In meetings and daily affairs, Wang Gang always portrayed the image of a chief officer; not like now, utterly panicked, spouting nonsense.
Looking at it this way, Director Wang isn’t so special, no extra hand or leg, aside from some impressive flattering skills which are indeed hard for them to match.
"I...you’re talking nonsense, give me the gun! If you come closer, I’ll shoot you!" Wang Gang took two steps back, reaching for the gun in the SWAT captain’s hand. The latter swung his arm to avoid, saying, "Chief Wang, calm down, doing this will cause trouble!"
"Trouble? Damn your trouble, you too! See how I get back at you all after today!" Wang Gang said frantically.
The SWAT captain frowned, shifted a few steps to the side, which looked like he was making way for Li Yifei, as the latter continued approaching.
"Damn it, you’re all vicious!" Wang Gang cursed, just about to say a wise man knows to avoid immediate losses, preparing to leave. But who would have thought all his subordinates would suddenly betray him, turning their faces immediately, causing him great anger.
"You might not be able to leave!" Li Yifei finished speaking, hooked a chair with his hand, which flew straight out, hitting Wang Gang’s back as he turned to run and took two steps. This guy, besides exercising in bed, hadn’t had any physical activity as chief. Already running slow, he couldn’t dodge the chair; with a thud, it hit his back, sending Director Wang flying, crashing to the ground.
The police were shocked, mouths agape, except for the instructor and the disarmed officer next to him who weren’t surprised. After all, they knew once Li Yifei stood up, Wang Gang couldn’t escape. This guy is the leader, and with this attitude, he was bound to get beaten, suddenly bringing a sense of balance to the two. Everybody is getting beat up; no one should call anyone else disgraceful.
The SWAT captain’s expression slightly changed. He hadn’t figured out what to do when Li Yifei already made his move, striking Wang Gang down, who now lay on the ground moaning in pain, right under his watch. This seemed a bit excessive.
Li Yifei didn’t care, as if he hadn’t done it, casually saying, "Still pretty solid."
Damn, of course, it’s solid. This is a substantial chair; not only is it sturdy, it’s also heavy. Wang Gang felt as if he’d been stabbed in the back with a knife, muscles convulsing in one spot, hurting so much he almost fainted.
If he had indeed fainted, that might have been better, but the real hardship was the sharp pain without losing consciousness.
Li Yifei looked at Wang Gang’s miserable state, faintly smiled, walked over, squatted in front of him, and said, "Director Wang, we haven’t finished talking, you can’t just run. Now, this is retribution, isn’t it?"
"You... cough cough, you deserve to die, all of you deserve to die, are you even police?" Wang Gang cursed through gritted teeth. As soon as he moved, his back hurt even more, and he couldn’t help but grimace and bare his teeth again.
Li Yifei laughed and said, "Of course they are police, and they are police with a bit of conscience and a bottom line. But I’m sorry, Director Wang, you’re not. Not only do you lack conscience and a bottom line, I can guarantee that you’ll be a cripple in the future. If you have other crimes, you’ll spend the rest of your life in prison. Oh, and if the circumstances are severe, you might even face a firing squad."
"Fuck you..." Wang Gang had just started to curse when he was hit hard on the head. It was that chair again, and Li Yifei smashed it directly onto his head, his expression turning somewhat brutal as he coldly said, "If I were you, I would just play dead right now, rather than curse. You see, this is the cost of cursing. I’ve seen plenty of tough guys, so it doesn’t work on me."
That blow left Wang Gang dizzy, and for a long time, he didn’t make a sound. He just occasionally twitched, indicating that he was still alive. Uh, maybe not necessarily alive, because body twitching can also be a neural reflex just after death...
The SWAT captain couldn’t bear to watch anymore. Although Wang Gang was abhorrent and had a bad reputation, you couldn’t just beat him like this in front of them. If this got out, they would also be criticized.
As he walked over, Li Yifei looked up, smiled at him, and said, "You’re alright, a good comrade. Which unit were you in before?"
Uh... why does he seem older than me... The SWAT captain was taken aback, not knowing how to respond for a moment, but he still said his unit number.
Li Yifei immediately recalled which unit it was, nodded, and praised, "No wonder you still have a soldier’s aura after all these years. Not bad, though it was a pity that unit was reorganized later, and its number was canceled. Your Special Warfare Team was merged into other units, and it hasn’t been as sharp since."
"You even know that?" Although this seemed inappropriate to ask, the SWAT captain couldn’t help but ask. He didn’t expect this ordinary-looking person to know about his unit, especially since he had been retired for almost twenty years, and the unit from back then indeed no longer existed.
Li Yifei chuckled and said, "Not only do I know, but there’s also some connection."
This doesn’t sound like what an ordinary soldier would say, and the tone is not right, plus some connection... The SWAT captain scratched his head, standing next to Li Yifei, and asked, "I wonder which unit you were in?"
Many people in the SWAT team were veterans, and when they heard that the boss and that arrogant man were chatting, and seemed to be comrades, they got interested. Many of the police officers were also veterans, so they were intrigued too. This guy was so fierce, he must have a significant background.
Li Yifei looked up, grinned, and asked, "Which unit do you think I came from?"
The SWAT captain thought for a moment and shook his head. Li Yifei hadn’t shown any special abilities, and he hadn’t seen the earlier actions, so he couldn’t guess. Although he had kept up with the military over the years, he was a military enthusiast.
Li Yifei continued to ask, "Which special forces unit do you think is the most powerful now?"
As soon as this question was asked, the others also started to think. Many had a sacred answer in their hearts, but none spoke up, especially the SWAT captain. He too thought of that name but instinctively shook his head, then mentioned another unit, which was the second most powerful besides that one. It had been second place in the military district exercises for the past two years. Although there was a significant gap with the first, its strength was a bit ahead of the others.
Li Yifei shook his head and said, "Not that unit, and I don’t think it’s the strongest unit."
"You wouldn’t be from..." The SWAT captain’s eyes lit up. Since the second strongest was ruled out, could it be that Li Yifei was from the strongest special forces unit? It was possible, and only those from that unit would be so tough and formidable."
Other police officers’ eyes also sparkled as they looked at Li Yifei, waiting for him to reveal the answer.
Seeing so many comrades, Li Yifei didn’t hide it anymore and said, "Yes, I was from the Flying Hawk Squad, but I’m retired now."
"Damn!" Those who understood the significance of those four words exclaimed immediately, staring wide-eyed at Li Yifei, feeling the more they looked, the more it made sense. No wonder he was so skilled, so ruthless, and even dared to hit the district sub-bureau chief. Only someone from that unit would be so audacious and daring. Everyone couldn’t help but admire him in their hearts.
