Special Forces Medic-Chapter 831 - 804: Taking Him Down

"Still detained at the bureau." Who leaked the information? How did this matter reach this old man's ears?

"Police smuggling firearms, that's not a minor charge. As the Director of the Criminal Investigation Section, where's the evidence?" Wu Mian shifted his posture, expressing dissatisfaction with Ji Weihua's hasty approach. "Allowing such a report to be submitted is really embarrassing." The case report thrown on the table completely unravelled Ji Weihua's doubts.

"Director Wu, this report is not yet finished, and the case hasn't been wrapped up; how did it end up in your hands?"

"The district police bureau currently has no director, and among the several candidates, aren't you being a bit too hasty?"

"I absolutely don't mean that. Whoever takes this director position, it's all the same to me, I..."

A brief knock on the door interrupted the two. "Director Wu, I'm Xiao Lin."

"Oh, we have another guest." Wu Mian stood up from his seat and personally went to open the door. What kind of person warrants such treatment from him? Ji Weihua was curious. "Come in and speak."

Welcoming Xiao Lin into the office from outside, he sniffed at the dusty room.

"Director Wu, why choose this environment for work?" Xiao Lin pulled Wu Mian out of the office, his face stern. "I've told you many times before, your nose isn't suited to staying in such a dusty place for long, it's not good for your respiratory system."

"Oh my, you start nagging as soon as you see me. So young yet like a little old man." Despite being reprimanded, he remained cheerful. Ji Weihua was even more intrigued by who this person was, but the voice reminded him of Hua Qingyi's bodyguard.

"If you heed my words, you won't hear me nagging. Find a cleaner place to talk."

"Director Ji, let's go to your office; this place isn't suitable for receiving guests."

"Yes!" Ji Weihua stepped out of the director's office, immediately spotting the tall Xiao Lin standing beside Wu Mian, his hand hooked affectionately around his arm. "Is it you?"

"Yes, it's me!" Xiao Lin nodded and smiled.

"You know each other?"

"Yes, previously I was operating in the northern district under the guise of a bodyguard dispatched by the city committee, didn't greet you beforehand, truly disrespectful."

"I heard about this. Young Master Hua also came?" Wu Mian, without acknowledging Ji Weihua behind him, pulled Xiao Lin along to the criminal investigation section. "I was wondering why I haven't seen you wherever Young Master Hua appears; you two are notorious for being inseparable, hahaha."

"Director Wu is teasing us juniors again. Young Master Hua is still stationed at the outskirts of the northern district, in the military district, and said he'll personally greet you tonight."

"He sure is bold, doesn't even regard me as the director, takes people as he pleases. I bet this idea was yours; such decisiveness is indeed your style."

"Thank you for the compliment, Director. Xiao Lin will continue to work hard."

Ji Weihua felt he could hardly keep up with their conversation. Previously, he suspected Xiao Lin's identity – at most, a wealthy young master who took the Wang family's woman and dealt with them, backed by the Hua family. He didn't think he was so complex, not assuming much as those in Dragon Soul would naturally have high social standing.

"Director Ji, what are you still standing there for?" Wu Mian was already standing at the door of the criminal investigation office.

"Nothing, nothing." Under Xiao Lin's slightly amused gaze, Ji Weihua stiffened his resolve and opened the door.

"Long time no see, Director Ji." Xiao Lin graciously extended his hand, and for Wu Mian's sake, Ji Weihua shook it.

"Both of you sit down first. Xiao Lin, sit to my left."

"Yes!"

The sofa on the left was occupied by Xiao Lin, leaving Ji Weihua to sit on the one near the door, a bit distant from Wu Mian, at a face-to-face angle.

"Director Wu, who is this…"

"As a bodyguard, he naturally doesn't have much to say to you. But as a Dragon Soul major, your rank is far below his." Wu Mian directly revealed Xiao Lin's identity, feeling very satisfied with the twitching on Ji Weihua's face. What's called regret? At this moment, his intestines must be turning green with remorse!

"Major?" Ji Weihua didn't believe it; someone who seemed only twenty years old had already attained the rank of major. Who is he kidding! "Xiao Lin, I hear you brought something for Director Ji to see, go ahead and show it now!" Wu Mian thought Ji Weihua's question was foolish.

A disc was inserted into the Apple device he carried, Wu Mian stopped Xiao Lin's hand, directing towards Ji Weihua. "Director Ji, regarding the northern district, do you have anything else to report to me?"

The last opportunity would quietly vanish before grasped. Ji Weihua felt hesitant, but Xiao Lin didn't give him this chance, gently pushing away Wu Mian's hand, showing a trusting smile. The disc spun a few times in the device before displaying images.

"Director Ji, you can take a good look at these. Feel free to ask me if there are any questions." Pushing the Apple device in front of Ji Weihua, he lazily leaned into the sofa, fingers tapping the armrest, while the room filled with a girl's narration. Following the narration in the footage was a man. Xiao Lin detected the contraction of Ji Weihua's pupils and smirked – this was just the beginning.

The last two people appearing in the footage are a man and a woman, wearing white coats, but their expressions are trembling and fearful, their eyes constantly darting around at the camera.

"Director Ji shouldn't be too unfamiliar with the people in the footage!" Xiao Lin said, closing the computer with a click.

"I, I'm not very sure."

"Oh, it's okay, I can slowly help you recall who they are." Xiao Lin turned to Wu Mian. "Director Wu, starting now or..."

"Start here, right now!"

"What are you going to do?" Before Ji Weihua could react, two people rushed in from outside and took him down. "Director Wu, are you arresting me?"

"Someone testified that you killed Yan Juanjuan, and now you're being charged with murder." Wu Mian's words left Ji Weihua sitting dazed on the sofa. After a while, he suddenly started to struggle frantically, shouting, "No, I didn't kill Yan Juanjuan, I didn't kill her."

Wu Mian waved to the two subordinates holding Ji Weihua, and they withdrew. "Director Ji, do you remember what I just said to you? Opportunities won't keep the door open for you all the time. It's up to you to decide whether to be smart or foolish. It's all in a moment's thought."

Ji Weihua remained silent, always so silent that it was hard to discern his thoughts. "No matter what I say, I can't escape the two words: death."

Wu Mian nodded. "You're a good subordinate. Bring him." Two people walked in from outside and stood behind Ji Weihua. "Take him away."

"Director Wu, you can't arrest me without evidence."

"Weren't those things just now enough? Take him away."

"You can't arrest me, you don't have substantive evidence, you can't arrest a government official." Ji Weihua continued to struggle, but his words had already angered Wu Mian.

"Send him directly to the Sword for custody."

After the person was taken away, Wu Mian pressed his forehead and leaned back on the sofa. "Xiao Lin, this seems like a tough bone to chew, all hopes in the Lord!"

"Uncle Wu, don't worry. It's because the dog hasn't been provoked yet." Perhaps Wu Mian hadn't noticed a detail about Ji Weihua, but Xiao Lin did. When Wu Mian said someone accused him of killing Yan Juanjuan, Ji Weihua's response was, "I didn't kill Yan Juanjuan, I didn't kill her," and at the end of that sentence, he added, "She still..." Although this part wasn't voiced, the mouth shape had already been revealed.

"Yan Juanjuan is still alive." 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

"How can you be so sure?" Yan Juanjuan is a strong piece of evidence for them, but Yao Zheng hid her too well.

"Ji Weihua himself revealed it, I believe we can find Yan Juanjuan soon."

"What mysterious plan are you concocting, don't hide it from this old man." Wu Mian chuckled and scolded, thinking how great it would be if this man could become his son-in-law, but unfortunately, his daughter wasn't that blessed, and someone else had already claimed him. "If you were my son, I'd definitely give you a good spanking."

"Uncle Wu, if I can't be your son-in-law, at least I can be a son, haha!"

"Are you the worm in my stomach? How did you guess this?" Wu Mian's old face blushed, as even his little thoughts couldn't escape this young man's eyes.

"Don't worry, Uncle Wu, Chief Wu will surely find you a good son-in-law."

"Let's hope so, but back to the point, what exactly is your plan?"

"Yao Zheng doesn't trust Ji Weihua. If I'm not mistaken, he might already be working on shifting the criminal evidence onto Ji Weihua. And just at this time, I arrested Ji Weihua, which hit him hard."

"Losing a left arm and then a right arm, he's like a turtle in a jar."

"Not entirely, Yao Zheng still has people he can use. They are just hidden very well. Arresting Ji Weihua is not to get anything out of them but to flush out a few others behind the scenes working. Only then can we catch them all at once."

"Haha, I see now." Wu Mian happily patted Xiao Lin on the back. It's indeed the river's waves pushing forward, one generation surpassing the previous! "Xia Xue is coming too, let's check it out!"

"Aren't you going back today?"

"Secretary Hua means staying for a couple of days. I know you're also worried about his safety, but since you're at Tiger Altar, you're not afraid of Tiger's Nest."

"I'll arrange for someone to protect your safety."

"No need to bother, the people we've brought are enough to handle it. Don't underestimate us old fellas!"

"I wouldn't dare underestimate you. I'm idolizing too much to be late!"
