Just then, the police chief’s phone rang. He took a look at the caller ID, immediately straightened up and respectfully picked up the call. He kept saying “Yes, yes.” when he was answering the call. It had been quite a while before he hung up the call, and he treated Tang Xi and Qiao Liang even more respectfully. He politely asked the two of them to take a seat.
Tang Xi took a look at the police chief in surprise and then sat down on the sofa.
However, Qiao Liang wasn’t surprised at all. He sat down and pointed at the sofa opposite to him, saying, “Take a seat.”
“Mr. Qiao, I didn’t expect you would come to our police station. You can rest assured that I’ll carefully investigate this case. Since that woman hurt Miss Tang and severely injured her, I won’t let her off easily and will definitely have her receive the punishment she deserves.” The police chief said in French. Obviously he was very nervous and kept wiping sweat from his forehead.
“Of course, I’ll have our best policemen to investigate this case. We definitely won’t let you down.”
Qiao Liang smiled. “Okay, I trust you. By the way, no one will know I’ve been here except you and the one who you just talked to on the phone, understood?”
The police chief’s eyes lit up when he heard his words. He looked at Qiao Liang in excitement and kept nodding. “Yes, yes, I know. Mr. Qiao has a distinguished identity and is mysterious. We’ll keep secret of your whereabouts.”
The police chief was wondering who Tang Xi was! For her, Lawrence called Mr. President and even the boss of Long Xiao Group Mr. Q showed up here!
Very few people knew Mr. Q’s name. The only thing they knew about him was that his family name was Qiao. No one had seen how he looked. Except the other two bosses of Long Xiao Group, no one had seen his real face!
He didn’t expect he was so fortunate as to meet the legendary figure here.
Qiao Liang was very satisfied with the police chief’s response. He stood up and nodded. “Okay, then I’ll be going.”
Tang Xi also thanked the police chief who hurriedly stood up and said “It’s my duty”. Then he saw them out personally and Qiao Liang looked back at the police chief and said, “Don’t trouble yourself to come and see us out. I know there are a lot of people who want you to do them a favor, but I think you know how to deal with those concerning this case, right?”
“Mr. Qiao, you can rest assured. We’ll handle the case impartially and absolutely won’t practice favoritism. Nobody can bribe us to release that woman!” The police chief looked at Qiao Liang with a smile and said firmly.
He was not stupid. If he released that woman, he would lose his life, let alone his position! He certainly wouldn’t sacrifice his life for a strange woman.
After Qiao Liang and Tang Xi left, the police chief called all inspectors of the police station to a meeting and told them to handle this case carefully, because the president was very concerned about this case. And he also told them not to leak any information about this case. Otherwise, they would be fired.
All the inspectors looked at the police chief in surprise. Even Mr. President was concerned about this case?! What the heck were the identities of those people involved in this case?!
After the police chief made sure that all the inspectors had been aware of the importance of this case, he concluded the meeting and went back to his office. At the door of his office, his secretary came up to him…
“Mr. Chief, just now a person came here and said he wanted to meet you to know about the airport assault case.” The secretary looked at the police chief respectfully and touched his pocket unconsciously.
He didn’t want to pass on the message at first, but that man gave him ten thousand Euros. Then he happily agreed to do that man this favor.
Hearing his words, the police chief frowned and said coldly, “I don’t have time! Who is he? Why should I make time to meet him? He can go talk with the policemen who are responsible for this case.”
“Yes, Mr. Chief. But he said he could offer you…” The secretary didn’t say the latter part of his words. He knew the police chief well. He could do people favors provided he got what he wanted. That man who gave him ten thousand Euros easily would certainly give more money to the police chief.
The police chief’s face darkened when he heard his secretary’s words. He glared at his secretary and growled, “Do I look like a corrupt official? Cruz, I know you’ve taken that man’s money. Now return the money to him! Otherwise, don’t blame me for being harsh to you! If there is still anyone who wants to see me for this case, just tell them I don’t have time, understood?!”
The secretary was stunned by his words. When did his boss become so upright? He didn’t even want to earn this easy money?!
The police chief surely knew what his secretary was thinking of, but he couldn’t tell him the reason. Which one was more important, money or his life? Of course his life was more important! If he had died, what did he still need money for? To burn it in front of his grave? To pave his path on the road to hell?
No, he wanted to be alive.
He was very happy that he saw the legendary Mr. Qiao and received a call from the president today! That felt so good!
In a good mood, the police chief walked into his office, clasping his hands behind his back and humming a tune.
The secretary had to bitterly take out the cheque he just received and returned it to its former owner…
Grandpa Qin looked at the returned cheque with wide open eyes and stared at his assistant, asking angrily, “What did you say?!”
“The police chief even refused to meet us, let alone accepting our money. And he even had his secretary return us the cheque we gave him. It seems that we can’t count on the police chief to save Miss.”
