Ke Jin's nickname was Xiao Jin, but it was generally only those in the underworld who called him that. Lin Qianqian, as the representative of the police station in the southern part of Shangjing, naturally addressed him by his full name.
This also highlighted the difference in their relationship. The onlookers on the side gathered more and more, almost forgetting that the police station was still in charge in Shangjing. At this moment, they even hoped for a confrontation between the two sides.
Was a fight about to break out?
The eyes of the passersby sparkled with excitement. Even though they knew there was a possibility of a shootout, not a single person left!
After Ke Jin ensured his subordinates had left safely, he continued with a grim expression.
"This isn't over today."
With that, Ke Jin turned to leave. Lin Qianqian had only intended to stop him from causing trouble, but with so many ordinary citizens watching, she found herself in a difficult position. She could only call out again.
"Stop!"
Ke Jin paused and slowly turned around. His previously grim expression had turned cold.
"Director Lin, don't push your luck."
Ke Jin was genuinely angered at this moment. In this area, he had always had the final say, practically ruling with an iron fist.
If Lin Qianqian had the pressure of being a police officer watched by ordinary citizens, how could he, as the local power broker, not have it?
As the saying goes, a man fights for his dignity, and a Buddha fights for incense. Ke Jin, being a man of the underworld, valued face even more. Lin Qianqian's obstruction had clearly touched his bottom line!
He was merely a police flower! If it weren't for him being from the headquarters, he would have already made a move. Eliminating police personnel for safety was not something he hadn't done before.
Therefore, at this moment, facing Lin Qianqian's obstruction, Ke Jin's face showed a hint of killing intent.
However, what he didn't know was that Lin Qianqian was different from those who got ahead through connections or purely through their own efforts; she had both hard work and solid connections!
His thoughts were also Lin Qianqian's thoughts.
He was just a top thug for a gang. If he let him go like this today, wouldn't it be an embarrassment to the entire Shangjing headquarters?
Therefore, facing the killing intent on Ke Jin's face, Lin Qianqian did not back down at all.
Instead, she said more forcefully, "Anyone can leave today, but you can't! If you don't want to cause any more trouble, go back to the police station with me honestly!"
Hearing this, many of the surrounding onlookers secretly gave a thumbs-up, and their faces showed a sense of satisfaction.
At this moment, their feeling could be described by one word: exhilarating!
If they had to use two words, it would be: cathartic!
Some even applauded and cheered. However, when Ke Jin looked at them with cold eyes, they immediately turned and ran without hesitation.
Li Chonglou, standing at the entrance, sensed the mood of the crowd and immediately realized the situation here.
The underground forces might have already infiltrated the police force. Here, perhaps the underground's influence that day...
Yian was in the southern district of Shangjing. The location where everyone was now was the junction of the southern and eastern districts. Half of this area belonged to the southern district and half to the eastern district.
It was an area jointly managed by the two districts, so Li Chonglou was not surprised by this situation.
But this did not mean he would stand by and do nothing.
Seeing that Ke Jin's killing intent had been aroused, Li Chonglou quickly reminded Yue Hai.
"Be careful."
"Don't worry, Brother Li."
Yue Hai understood and immediately stepped between them.
It was only then that Lin Qianqian noticed Li Chonglou's presence, and surprise rose to her face.
"Why are you here too?"
Li Chonglou said calmly, "Resolving some personal matters."
After speaking, Li Chonglou also warned Ke Jin, "If you don't want to die, I advise you not to act rashly."
At this moment, he was still holding Chen Jiji. Although the latter felt ashamed, his survival instinct made him dare not resist at all, only lowering his head and not daring to look up.
Holding a living person in his hand, the scene was quite imposing. Ke Jin's killing intent disappeared for a moment.
One Yue Hai, one unknown figure, and a representative from the headquarters – this lineup was enough for him to take seriously.
However, facing Li Chonglou's words, Ke Jin still replied coldly, "Are you threatening me?"
"So what?"
Ke Jin's eyes immediately narrowed. Lin Qianqian, realizing something was wrong, quickly shouted, "Don't do anything rash! Come back to the police station with me first!"
The police officers who were being ignored by the side gripped their guns tightly, watching their every move.
The scene suddenly froze.
Ke Jin stared coldly at Li Chonglou, and Li Chonglou met his gaze calmly. Yue Hai, on the other hand, stared intently at Ke Jin, waiting for his actions or Li Chonglou's command.
As for Lin Qianqian and her officers, they had inadvertently become supporting characters.
As more and more people gathered around, Lin Qianqian finally couldn't stand it and immediately raised her gun and fired a shot into the air.
Bang!
The loud gunshot startled the surrounding onlookers. Lin Qianqian, however, whispered, "Take them all away!"
Several police officers nervously stepped forward with their guns. Fortunately, Ke Jin did not resist due to the threat from Yue Hai and Li Chonglou. After the guns were pressed against their backs, the police officers finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Thus, all four were put into the police car.
Li Chonglou was deliberately placed in a separate car, with Lin Qianqian sitting with him in the back.
Only after the police car started did Lin Qianqian couldn't help but ask doubtfully, "Didn't I ask you to solve a case? Why did you come here!"
Li Chonglou said calmly, "I should be asking you that. Why are you here too? Is it another big case?"
Lin Qianqian immediately rolled her eyes. "You have the nerve to say that. You almost messed up our plan. Do you know who this Ke Jin is?"
Li Chonglou's expression froze. He had only asked casually, and unexpectedly, it had really involved a major case!
For a moment, a look of confusion appeared on his face.
Lin Qianqian continued, "Let me tell you first, no matter what conflict you have, you cannot touch him during this period. This Ke Jin is another major clue we are following, and it is crucial."
By the end, Lin Qianqian's expression had become extremely serious.
Li Chonglou's brows immediately furrowed.
"Is it that international criminal group you mentioned before?"
Lin Qianqian nodded seriously.
Li Chonglou immediately fell into thought.
Ke Jin was also related to whether he could take over Gao Baisong's convoy, which was equally important to him.
However, he did not want to get involved in Lin Qianqian's major case anymore, so he had to think of a compromise.
As for the case Lin Qianqian mentioned, he had already handed it over to Hei Dao. It was originally a small case, and with Hei Dao's abilities, it should not be a problem to solve it alone.
