Chapter 368: Resisting Arrest
Chapter 368: Resisting Arrest
In the classroom.
Yin Zhaotang was dazed and said with a dizzy head: "What's the matter, sir?"
The day before yesterday, I was interrogated for fatigue and had not slept for more than thirty hours. The moment I lay down, I had a big dream. I slept for a total of thirteen hours. It was the early morning of the third day in the ICAC.
The ICAC clerk in charge of the detention room helped him remove his shackles and said politely, "Mr. Yin, the investigation is over."
"Pick, release me?"
Yin Zhaotang stood up, stood in the classroom, and moved his shoulders left and right, but was not in a hurry to go out.
An ICAC clerk who came to pick up the person, still holding documents in his hand, said politely: "Mr. Yin, you are joking. This is just an investigation. It is not an arrest. It is not a release. It is just the end of the investigation."
"Congratulations, Yin Sheng, for walking out cleanly."
Yin Zhaotang glanced at the ICAC officer in front of him, slapped his hand away, and said, "No need to shake hands. You were one of the guys who tortured me the day before yesterday."
"Street boy!"
Lian Ji's investigation director looked embarrassed and explained, "It's just work."
Yin Zhaotang pointed at his nose and said, "I have never been embarrassed by a small character. Buy me some breakfast. I am a little hungry."
"No problem, Mr. Yin, do you like Chinese or Western food?" The investigation director was very polite.
Yin Zhaotang said: "Hong Kong style, crazy line!"
After Du Zihua finished the formalities, he came to the waiting area with his briefcase and pulled out a chair: "Brother Tang, you can go now."
"Let's talk about it after we finish eating the wontons." Yin Zhaotang changed into a brand new blue suit and was sitting at the table, eating wonton noodles with his head down.
Hu Bochao and He Junhong came out of the detention room one after another and greeted them with joy: "Mr. Yin, good morning."
"Mr. Yin."
Yin Zhaotang put down the spoon, stood up, patted the two on the shoulders, and apologized, "I'm sorry for dragging everyone down."
"The ICAC officials said it was a misunderstanding and it's okay!" said Hu Bochao.
Ho Kwan-hung smiled, raised his hand to look at his watch, and said, "I'll go back to the police force first. We'll talk again when we have time."
"Goodbye." Yin Zhaotang nodded.
He Junhong left in a hurry, not showing too much closeness with the two. Zhuang Zhuoyan saw this and sneered: "Pretend!"
Hu Bochao lowered his voice and asked, "Have you dealt with the matter outside?"
"nailed it."
Yin Zhaotang nodded, took out two cigars, one for each of them, lit them up and took two puffs, then asked, "Mr. Hu, are you ready?"
"Let's go." Hu Bochao nodded.
Yin Zhaotang held up his cigar and walked out of the ICAC. Zhuang Zhuoyan stood at the door in a suit and tie, his arms folded across his chest, and said loudly, "Mr. Yin, have a safe trip."
Yin Zhaotang brushed past him and responded softly: "Thank you for your care!"
Niu Qiang, Hua Pi, Sha Hui and more than a dozen brothers from the Xing Hall had been guarding the gate of the ICAC. When the boss and Councillor Hu appeared, they immediately raised their umbrellas to cover the expressions of the two men and then used their bodies to protect the two bosses.
Many reporters from newspapers who had received the gossip had already been waiting at the door with their cameras. As soon as the two came out, the flash lights were so bright that it was hard to open your eyes, and all kinds of questions were as noisy as a vegetable market.
Everyone is asking whether Zhongyitang is related to the gang fight on Qingfeng Street. It seems that the fact that Yin Zhaotang is the leader of the triad organization has become a consensus of the whole society.
Yin Zhaotang and Hu Bochao certainly kept silent and did not give any answer. But that did not stop the reporters from chasing them all the way to the blue Rolls-Royce.
Until the two of them got into a luxury car and left the Murray Road car park building where the ICAC headquarters was located, escorted by five Mercedes-Benz cars.
The building has an ICAC sign on its facade, commonly known as the ICAC Building. The site was formerly a parking lot, hence the name "Parking Lot Building".
The top floor is the ICAC headquarters executive office, the tenth floor is part of the Legislative Council office, and the eighth floor is the West District Council office. It is not a public property owned by the ICAC, but a leased commercial property. The real ICAC building has not yet been approved for construction, except for the Murray Road headquarters.
The ICAC has many offices scattered in commercial buildings in various districts. The motorcade had just shaken off the reporters and arrived at Gloucester Road, intending to return to Tsim Sha Tsui East via Hung Hom.
Niu Qiang sat in the passenger seat and reported the situation of the society to the boss in detail. Yin Zhaotang was enjoying the street breeze and tasting a cigar. He was not in a hurry to go to Tuodi and decided to go back home to rest for a day.
Just as the convoy stopped at the entrance of the Red Tunnel, Niu Qiang took out a stack of tunnel tickets tied with rubber bands from the armrest box and decided to use the tunnel tickets to pay the toll.
The doors of two cars that had been parked early next to the Red Tunnel toll booth opened, and five S4 police officers from the Special Branch, wearing suits and with guns on their waists, followed Atou and walked hurriedly towards the convoy.
Chang Shixiu was smoking a cigarette and leading the way with big strides. He had a sharp look in his eyes, staring straight at the car window.
Yin Zhaotang glared back without any fear, biting his cigar, and said to Hu Bochao who was in the same car with him: "Sorry, Mr. Hu, I have to trouble you to take a taxi back to Kowloon."
Hu Bochao's face was dark as he cursed, "You son of a bitch, the Hong Kong government is using spies to rule Hong Kong! You just left Lian Ji and now you're in the Political Department?"
If Governor MacLehose were still in office, he would never allow the Special Branch to run a grand event. Although secret police rule is useful, it is full of internal friction and cannot develop. Over time, it will directly destroy the people's hearts.
However, Acting Governor-General Sir John Smith did not care about government affairs at all. The special power vacuum period gave the Political Department an opportunity to expand its power.
Unlike other functional departments such as the Police Force and the ICAC, the Political Department has no practical role in public security.
All functions serve the rule.
Everyone in the system will instinctively seize the opportunity to stir up trouble during periods of turmoil, prove their role, and win the support of the next governor.
Niu Qiang received the boss's eye hint in the rearview mirror, silently put down the tunnel ticket, and took out a Black Star pistol from the bottom of the box: "Boss, leave it to me later, and take Shahui's car to go."
Yin Zhaotang exhaled and said in a deep voice: "Find a place to hide and wait for the club to arrange a boat for you."
"Don't worry, I know." Niu Qiang had quietly turned on the safety, and his younger brother Da Qi, who was sitting in the passenger seat, also flicked away the cigarette butt and put his hand in the gap between the seats.
Chang Shixiu stopped in front of the car window, threw the cigarette butt on the ground, crushed it with the tip of his shoe, raised his hand and knocked on the window with contempt, and said arrogantly: "Mr. Yin, there is no need for me to introduce myself, get out of the car and cooperate with the investigation, thank you."
Yin Zhaotang raised a light smile and said, "Sir, which department are you from? Show me your ID."
"Political Department, Senior Inspector Chang Shixiu of the S4 Local Threat Group!" Chang Shixiu took off the ID card on his chest and reached directly into the half-open window, almost touching Yin Zhaotang's nose, forcing him to see more clearly.
Yin Zhaotang let out a breath, and his playful expression suddenly turned fierce. He stretched out his left hand, chopped inward with his right hand, and pressed his body down, directly breaking Chang Shixiu's arm that was reaching into the car.
The cigar was also extinguished on the body of the street fighter, causing Chang Shixiu to lose his facial features due to the pain. He screamed in pain: "Ah!!!"
The five special police officers around him seemed surprised that someone dared to resist arrest violently, and they quickly drew their guns. However, they did not even unfasten their gun bags in advance, and before they could aim their guns, the officer was pushed directly into the car window with his head and body half of his body.
The police officer held the .38 rifle in both hands, aiming left and right, but did not dare to pull the trigger.
At the same time, Yin Zhaotang had already pinned Chang Shixiu under his arms in the car, and kept elbowing him, hitting him from behind the neck. After he had knocked Chang Shixiu out of his strength, he clamped his head with his elbows and pulled it, cursing, "You bastard, you're still trying to do something dirty, fuck you."
The Police Force and the ICAC are both Hong Kong government agencies. They have to consider the future political direction and no one will go to extremes.
Entering the classrooms of these two departments, there is still room for negotiation and each department can show its own strengths. But the Political Department is a secret service department. They just lost a hand in the game and they personally went to the scene to arrest people. It is clear that they have no dignity. How can they survive if they go in?
A gentleman should not stand under a dangerous wall, and a man's life should not be controlled by others. After the battle on Qingfeng Street, Lao Zhong only fought off a group of thugs, and the location of the surname Cai has not been found.
If Lao Zhong doesn't fight back, his reputation will be damaged. If he wants to have a beautiful ending, he must rely on Yin Zhaotang to take charge of the situation.
I would rather be a wanted criminal outside than join the Political Department.
"Bang bang bang!" Niu Qiang, Da Qi, Hua Pi and others saw the boss taking action so brazenly, they pushed open the car door, pulled out their guns and shot at the police officers from the Political Department.
The five police officers from the Political Department were so used to being so powerful that they did not even have a careful plan to arrest an important target. The six of them dared to mention someone in front of a dozen gunmen.
They were suddenly surrounded and shot at, and had almost no power to resist. They only fired a few shots as a demonstration, and then each of them was hit by several bullets, with blood gushing out of their eyes, and died tragically at the entrance of the Red Tunnel.
