Chapter 1163 - Chapter 1163 Chapter 1163 Things Have Become Troublesome

Chapter 1163: Chapter 1163: Things Have Become Troublesome Chapter 1163: Chapter 1163: Things Have Become Troublesome Lin Lan once again displayed her identification and told the approaching officers of some rank that these individuals might have intentionally attacked them.

Lin Lan referred to Luo Ziling as her comrade, explaining that they had been on a mission today when they saw thieves and intervened, only to be unexpectedly attacked by the group.

These people were acting on someone else’s orders, intending to kill them.

However, Lin Lan didn’t wish to take these people in; she merely instructed the officers that the case must be thoroughly investigated.

The person behind the attack also had to be uncovered, or else she would complain to superiors.

Upon examining Lin Lan’s credentials and hearing her report, the senior officers were sweating profusely.

They knew that today’s issue was troublesome.

Involving a special department meant that even a small matter could become problematic.

If anything happened to these two from the special departments, it would spell trouble for them.

Not to mention that there had been a shooting, targeting these special department individuals by thieves who should not be exposed.

They naturally understood that the “thieves” possessing firearms were definitely more than just simple thieves.

How could one have firearms without a solid background? Without a powerful backer, how could they be so bold? They would have been wiped out long ago.

The matter could not be hidden and had to be handled swiftly and decisively.

Of course, they also hoped not to amplify the situation any further; not disturbing higher levels of leadership would be ideal.

Therefore, the highest-ranking officer on site cautiously asked Lin Lan how she wanted to handle the situation.

Lin Lan bluntly made her demands, “Trace the mastermind behind them, no matter who it is, it must be thoroughly investigated; also, I want to know why these petty thieves have firearms? Why do they dare act so boldly, threatening righteous interveners, even ready to brawl on the streets after being caught stealing?”

“Yes, yes, we will investigate thoroughly and ensure all issues are clarified,” the officer repeatedly assured, then softly added a request, “Comrade, we will definitely clear this up, but please don’t report this to higher-ups, it would put us under great pressure and in a difficult position.”

The officer’s ability to read expressions was quite good, and with years of criminal investigation experience, he paid close attention to details. The fact that Lin Lan was willing to explain so much without a non-negotiable attitude made him feel that neither of them wanted to escalate the situation.

Hence, he made such a request.

After learning that the person opposite was the head of the local precinct, Lin Lan agreed to his request.

She promised not to report the matter to superiors or add pressure to the police but hoped the police would thoroughly investigate the matter.

She would keep an eye on the investigation of the case and, when it closed, they must inform her of the final investigative and handling details.

Lin Lan being so agreeable, naturally, the precinct head breathed a sigh of relief, again assuring that he would conduct a thorough investigation of the case.

He would take personal responsibility for the case’s investigation, extracting the mastermind behind the scene to account to Luo Ziling and Lin Lan.

Lin Lan said nothing more, signaling Luo Ziling, and they left.

After Luo Ziling and Lin Lan had departed, every officer there breathed a sigh of relief.

“Chief Wu, this man’s hand has been shattered, should we send him to the hospital?” After Lin Lan and Luo Ziling left, an officer examining the scene ran to the chief’s side and quietly reported, “The injury is severe; I think his hand is done for.”

“Send him to the hospital immediately, assign two people to watch, and no one is allowed to approach. After treatment, take his statement as soon as possible,” the Chief Wu calmly ordered, then added, “Don’t let the situation leak yet, handle it discreetly.”

“Yes!” Having received the order, the officer went to make arrangements.

At that moment, the deputy chief on duty tonight approached, handed a cigarette to Chief Wu, and asked in a low voice, “Chief Wu, what do you think of this situation?”

“It’s hard to assess the specifics, but the situation shouldn’t be too severe,” Chief Wu took the cigarette, lit it, and after a deep inhale, continued, “I’ll personally oversee this case; we must clarify things quickly, or we’ll all be in trouble.”

The deputy chief hesitated but eventually did not voice his concerns, switching the topic instead, “Chief Wu, who exactly are these two individuals?”

“People we’ve never dealt with before, from special units,” Chief Wu sighed, aware of Dragon Rise’s situation only because a comrade had complained to him after being weeded out from their tough training program.

Even if not from Dragon Rise, dealing with members from any special forces was tricky.

They were exceptionally formidable soldiers, and their leaders were highly protective, not allowing their subordinates to be mistreated.

He just hoped that this was a regular public security case, where the thieves had sought revenge after being caught, only to pick the wrong targets.

If someone had directed the thieves like this, employing firearms, then the trouble became exceedingly severe.

“I hope we can resolve this case within our jurisdiction,” Chief Wu patted his deputy’s shoulder and walked towards the unfortunate one with a smashed hand.

If they couldn’t handle it, they’d have to report the situation upwards.

Of course, Chief Wu was furious about having such an audacious group of thieves in his jurisdiction.

And he could even guess that someone with authority among his subordinates might be involved with the gang.

But for now, his biggest concern was Lin Lan and Luo Ziling; if they were to report the situation to the leadership of Dragon Rise, who could then exert pressure on their superiors, they would be in a passive position.

Even without clarifying the case, he could possibly be dismissed or held accountable.

Right now, Chief Wu felt that the only thing he could do was to clarify the situation as soon as possible and provide an explanation to Dragon Rise.

Other matters would have to wait until later!

After leaving the scene, neither Luo Ziling nor Lin Lan had the interest to continue shopping.

“Let’s go back,” Lin Lan suggested to Luo Ziling.

“Why did you dare to shoot?” Luo Ziling asked Lin Lan.

“Because they had firearms, posing a threat to our lives.”

“Could you face disciplinary action?” Luo Ziling asked again, “If so, let me take the responsibility. I’m an external member anyway, so disciplinary action won’t matter.”

Lin Lan, surprised by Luo Ziling’s willingness to take responsibility, shook her head, “No problem, if I dared to shoot, then I’m not worried about disciplinary action. What I’m worried about now is who wants you dead, so this case must be clarified.”

Luo Ziling shuddered, “Are you planning to approach Chen Jiahai and Wang Qimin?”

“I’m free these days!” Lin Lan raised the clothes in her hand to indicate, “You’ve given me a gift, so I have to return the favor!”
