Chapter 7 Confirming the Threat
Zhou Zhengde, who was protecting the ‘important witness’ in the witness protection room of the Public Security Brigade’s headquarters on the 13th floor, was stunned when he heard the news that the team members ran over to report.
What do you mean, one person surrounded and beat up more than a dozen people?
The witness protection room is about the same size as an ordinary single room, so Wei Na naturally heard the shouts of the team members.
Her face was still pale, and she obviously hadn't recovered from the previous shooting. She asked in a low voice: "Did a group of gangsters beat up that Mu Liang?"
"It's still unclear who hit whom. Both sides were seriously injured. They even ran for several streets. Many people are paying attention to it now."
The team member frowned and glanced at Wei Na, and continued to report to Zhou Zhengde: "Captain! There are a few acquaintances of gangsters in the team. The leading gangster is called 'Bad Fish Boy'. He is seriously injured. We are here. There was blood on his clothes and he was sent to the hospital next door for treatment!”
"what happened?"
Zhou Zhengde cleared his throat, put his hands behind his back and said:
"Dr. Wei Na, please continue to rest. The testimony you provided will be of great help to our investigation of this prohibited weapons case. Thank you for your cooperation.
"Let's go take a look at the front!"
Zhou Zhengde turned around and hurried away.
Wei Na shouted: "Could it be related to the Black Fire Gang? They couldn't find me so they went to find Mu Liang?"
"It better not be."
Zhou Zhengde whispered back, and the alloy door of the witness room was slammed shut.
…
The security team headquarters on the 13th floor is located next to the central passage.
There is a circular square here, and more than a dozen official institutions on the 13th floor are compactly arranged around the circular square.
In the center of the square is an elevator shaft wrapped by a thick concrete wall. There are three portals into the central access elevator shaft around it. The long-open main entrance of the elevator room is directly opposite the gate of the security team station.
The fortress official does not prohibit people from using the upper and lower passages, but each use of the central passage costs 10 universal credits. The other passages and dozens of elevators distributed in four directions only cost 2 universal credits each time. This makes the central passage The channel has become an exclusive channel for official personnel.
——Government workers can use the fort’s public facilities free of charge.
——These elevators cannot go directly to the lower city and have complete monitoring and automatic defense systems.
At the same time, the central passage garden is also regarded as a 'luxury green belt' that can only be enjoyed by the 'management class'. Ordinary people rarely come here to stroll around.
Today is different. The circular square on the thirteenth floor is very lively.
Previously, the security team went out in large numbers and arrested a group of young people who were fighting, which also attracted a large number of onlookers.
There is no way, the fortress has limited resources and entertainment is prohibited inside, so it is rare to have new fun.
Wang Jixuan sat on a bench next to the main entrance of the elevator shaft, flanked by two security guards with guns at their waists.
There were a dozen gangsters squatting in front of them, holding their heads. Most of them had bruises on their noses and faces, and their hands were bound by belts;
The worst thing about it was the leading gangster, who was lying on a stretcher covered in blood and was being carried into the thirteenth-floor hospital not far away.
Wang Jixuan believed that his attack was measured and the other party would not bleed to death. This incident should not trigger any official targeting him.
He learned two new words in Mu Liang's memory - self-defense and self-defense counterattack.
Wang Jixuan is also a little unhappy now.
He actually did!
I ran and got lost...
He could only maintain the Divine Movement Spell for about a dozen breaths, and the layout of the passages in each place was very similar. He ran too fast and failed to discern the direction. He turned half a circle and plunged into the circle surrounded by these ruffians.
These gangsters turned out to be much more vicious than he thought. He used the strategy of catching the thief first and captured the bad fish boy, but several people on the other side were not threatened and rushed up to hit him with metal pipes.
If he hadn't used the leading gangster as a shield, he would most likely have been seriously injured.
Infinite That Heavenly Lord!
He is dignified!
Forget it, not to mention the hero's courage in the past, he failed to overcome the disaster after all, and now it is only the initial stage of his comeback.
Just find the Taoist heart later.
At this moment, Captain Zhou, whom Wang Jixuan had only met once, hurried from the side.
Zhou Zhengde frowned and glared at Wang Jixuan and the gangsters on the ground.
"Lock them all up!"
Zhou Zhengde cursed in his powerful baritone: "Idle and idle away from work! Not providing value to the fortress! And disrupting social order! Our thirteenth-floor security station must severely punish these brawlers!"
The onlookers from far and near burst into sparse applause.
Zhou Zhengde walked up to Wang Jixuan and looked at him with a frown. He found that Wang Jixuan had a few large bruises on his body and his clothes were in tatters, but he was still sitting upright.
Zhou Zhengde felt an indescribable sharpness inexplicably.
"Go in and talk."
Immediately, a security team member stepped forward to shackle Wang Jixuan.
"No," Zhou Zhengde glared and cursed, "He is just a victim! Why are he handcuffed? We have to ask people to write reports saying that we are enforcing the law indiscriminately!"
The team members nodded quickly, moved forward to support him, and invited Wang Jixuan into the main entrance of the public security station.
Half an hour later.
Zhou Zhengde leaned on the seat in the single office and raised his hand to rub his forehead.
Wang Jixuan sat on the hard metal bench and looked at the huge photo on the wall.
In the photo, Zhou Zhengde is wearing a crisp light blue uniform, receiving a medal from an old man's hand.
That should be Zhou Zhengde's moment of glory.
"Tsk," Zhou Zhengde ruffled his three-quarter-inch back with his fingers and threw the confession file in his hand on the table, "You're pretty good at it. There are so many of them trying to kill one person, so you won't be hurt much."
"I have secretly practiced free fighting for several years." Wang Jixuan said sincerely.
"This thing of yours."
Zhou Zhengde picked up the thin metal tube placed in the sterilization tray, and the sharpened end was stained with blood.
“This can be considered a prohibited weapon.
"But no wonder you, after being bullied for half a year, you will definitely find a way to resist.
"Seeing as we just helped each other once, I'll help you settle this trouble. Those gangsters also have acquaintances who came to me to intercede. I won't report this incident. Do you think that's okay?"
"Okay," Wang Jixuan nodded and did not ask for anything more from these officials.
He has his own solution.
Zhou Zhengde wondered: "You have such skill, why didn't you resist before?" Testing Pindao?
Wang Jixuan immediately lowered his eyebrows and sighed: "After you choose to retreat once you are bullied, you will never have the chance to resist again."
"It's true," Zhou Zhengde felt the same. "I've seen too many similar things. Your previous self-harm behavior was also related to this, right? However, this time the trouble will be bigger. According to what they said , this time it was the boss of the Black Fire Gang who directly found their boss, Rotten Fishboy, the one who scratched his neck with the metal pole. Fortunately, it was just a skin injury. "
Wang Jixuan was puzzled: "Big boss?"
"The boss generally refers to the top figures in the gang."
Zhou Zhengde tapped his fingers on the table:
"You don't know how powerful the Black Fire Gang is. They are one of the seven major gangs in the lower city. The lower city is very chaotic, but it also has some... some very precious resources. Each of these gangs has a complicated background.
"Wei Na has already told you what the Black Fire Gang does...organ trafficking."
Wang Jixuan asked: "Don't you prohibit this kind of thing?"
"Of course it's prohibited, it's completely prohibited by law!"
Zhou Zhengde curled his lips and spread his hands: "Guess, how many people can afford organ transplants in this fortress? What is the status of some of them?" "As far as I know , there are a few old guys in the Fortress Public Security Bureau who are unclear about the Black Fire Gang.
"The Blackfire Gang is just a black glove."
Wang Jixuan suddenly realized.
Is this what is commonly known as a family of officials and bandits? He also has a lot of experience.
"I actually don't want to get involved."
Zhou Zhengde sighed: "My life is great now. I have a sexually conservative girlfriend, a decent job, and two hundred subordinates who can be transferred directly.
"But Wei Na... you know, Wei Na is my unlucky friend, my best friend.
"The code of conduct of the Lower City gangsters is to never give up until they achieve their goals, otherwise they will feel that they have lost their prestige and their status has been shaken. I have submitted the investigation into the death of the man named Brother Hua to the higher authorities. He must have been in the Black Fire Help the BOSS on his desk.
"Wei Na is self-defense, self-defense in every sense of the word.
"But you and Wei Na will both be the targets of their subsequent revenge.
"That Brother Hua is the younger brother of the big boss of the Black Fire Gang. This is the biggest trouble."
Wang Jixuan thought silently.
Boosi seems to mean the gang leader.
"I can only help you for a while," Zhou Zhengde sighed, "I'll find a safe house for you to live in. Try to wear a hat and a mask when you go out later. If you can't, get a helmet to wear. There are many people in the security team system. I don’t know who you are or not. I’m just a captain who has just been transferred from outside. I can’t guarantee how long you’ll be safe. This is the only thing I can do.”
Wang Jixuan nodded, looked at the tired-looking captain in front of him, nodded and said, "I owe you a favor."
"Tsk! Then I look forward to you returning the favor!"
Zhou Zhengde tried his best not to laugh out loud when he said this:
“It’s not just what I say here that matters.
"I have another suggestion... Although you were in self-defense this time, I can help you classify this conflict as a fight, and you will be sent to the closed room of the security station for two months..."
"That's not necessary."
Wang Jixuan shook his head. He didn't like entering the prison and said with a smile: "I'm going to hide for a while. If I can't hide, I won't talk about the things I can't hide."
"Okay, whatever you want."
Zhou Zheng opened the drawer, took out an alarm the size of a button, and threw it into Wang Jixuan's hands.
"If you encounter danger, press it three times. It will flash red on its own, which means the police have been called. I will send someone there immediately."
"Thank you."
Wang Jixuan habitually agreed.
Zhou Zhengde tilted his head and looked at his gesture, then thought it might be some fashionable quirk among young people, so he didn't pay much attention to it.
The Black Fire Gang has territory, horses, and a large number of firearms in the lower city. No matter how much he warns, it's useless; in order to protect Wei Na, he is already exhausted, and the Black Fire Gang continues to put pressure on him through various relationships.
Zhou Zhengde felt that he had done his best to this young man.
"Owe me a favor?"
Zhou Zhengde smiled nonchalantly.
"Quite a personality."
…
the next day.
Near the central square, in the security team's safe house.
Wang Jixuan took off his cap and mask worth three universal quotas, and placed two large bags of emergency food on the table.
To be on the safe side, he did not go back to his residence to get his clothes. Several groups of ruffians were already looking for him in the area.
The gangsters at all levels are the extension of the gangs in the lower city.
The confidant of Captain Zhou who brought Wang Jixuan here told him that he could stay here for up to two months.
The safe house was no different from an ordinary single room. The only thing that made Wang Jixuan feel uncomfortable was the camera in the corner.
Although it is bad.
Wang Jixuan took off his shirt quickly and threw it accurately on the camera. Then he went to the bathing table and began to wash his body carefully, trying to increase the speed of absorbing spiritual energy as much as possible.
In the mirror, the young man was so thin that his ribs were visible, and most of the bruises on his body had dissipated.
Wang Jixuan let out a breath, then walked to the single bed wearing only his underwear, quickly made seals with his hands, and made a sitting posture with five hearts in the sky.
Although practice here is slow, it is more important to persevere.
‘Pindao’s failure in overcoming the tribulation last time was due to the lack of training in the world of mortals? ’
‘That’s okay. ’
'The Black Fire Gang does evil and harms living beings. The poor Taoist should act on behalf of Heaven and protect the Taoist body! ’
‘But we have to practice first, at least enter the realm of Qi training. ’
