At this moment, Zhang was even more astonished and suspicious. These men and women who had arrived seemed to be extraordinary; their skills were not those of ordinary people. Not to mention the three of them, even if all seven remaining officers from the station were called, they wouldn't be a match for them!
At that moment, another young man in casual clothes, whom Zhou Tao had never met before, dragged him in.
When Zhou Xuan saw his younger brother in that state, his heart ached terribly!
Zhou Tao's left eye was swollen and bruised, and his right cheek was covered in a large black mark. There were still faint traces of blood at the corner of his mouth, and his hands were still tied behind his back.
Normally, ordinary people should not be put in torture devices after being arrested by the police, except for serious offenders.
Is Zhou Tao a repeat offender? There are many obvious shoe prints on his clothes. How many people have beaten him?
Zhou Xuan rushed over and punched the man holding his brother in the face. The man took a step back and shouted, "What are you doing? You want to die?" Seeing that Director Zhang and several colleagues were there, how could he back down after being punched in the face? But then he noticed that the two people lying on the ground crying out were Liu De and Director Zhang's son, Zhang Yong. Director Zhang was standing behind his desk, stunned and afraid to move. Turning his head, he realized that there were two strange men pointing guns at them in the corner!
This was a huge shock, but he didn't have a gun on him.
Achang pointed his gun at him and shouted, "Stand by the opposite wall!"
This man had no choice but to go and stand in a row with Zhang and the others, his eyes fixed on Achang.
Zhou Xuan rushed over again and almost roared, "The key!"
With a wave of his hand, Ah Chang fired a shot that shattered the computer monitor on the table, sending shards of glass scattering across the surface.
This really startled Zhang and his group; this guy actually dared to fire a gun!
Without hesitation, the man took out the key and handed it to Zhou Xuan.
Zhou Xuan took the key and unlocked the door for his younger brother. From behind, he could see that Zhou Tao's hand was covered in a large purplish-black patch, and the spot where the dart had touched his skin was covered in blood.
Zhou Xuan threw the handcuffs he had taken off into the corner and glared at the group of people.
Zhou Tao was clearly still somewhat frightened, and called out in a trembling whisper, "Brother."
Indeed, he was just an ordinary countryman. He would be angry and fight back when his father was beaten. But for someone to be taken to such a place and abused like this, of course he would be afraid. Anyone who isn't afraid wouldn't be an ordinary person.
As the saying goes, "love me, love my dog," Fu Ying also felt sorry for Zhou Tao and took out a box of tissues from her pocket. She took out a tissue and gently wiped the bloodstains on Zhou Tao's wrist, blowing on it to relieve the pain as she did so.
Zhou Xuan glared at Zhang, and asked coldly, "Zhang, how are you going to handle this?"
Zhang did not confront them directly, but simply reminded them: "We will handle this fairly, but what you are doing is illegal."
"Fairness?" Zhou Xuan almost cursed out loud, but held back before continuing, "My brother was beaten, and he was even beaten while being escorted by law enforcement. May I ask, what serious crime did he commit?"
Zhang Suo's eyes darted around, his mind racing. He figured that with such a commotion, people outside would know and be asking for help. Once the county officials arrived, this group would probably be in deep trouble. For now, he had to play it safe; a wise man doesn't fight a losing battle. He'd agree to whatever they said and stall until the officials arrived!
Zhou Xuan glanced at Zhang Suo's expression, then looked out the window, knowing he was waiting for reinforcements. He gritted his teeth; if he was going to do this, he might as well go all the way. So be it; after today's incident, he was determined to move his entire family away, and he wasn't afraid of Zhang Suo's future revenge.
After thinking for a moment, Zhou Xuan said to Achang, "Achang, call Brother Hong and ask him for help with this!"
Ah Chang originally wanted to say that he could handle it himself, but since Zhou Xuan said so, he did as he was told. It would be better and more effective for Brother Hong to step in than for him to do so.
Achang nodded, handed the pistol to Ade, and then went outside to make a phone call. Two minutes later, he came back in, nodded to Zhou Xuan, and said, "Little Zhou, Brother Hong told you not to worry!"
Seeing their pretentious act, Zhang scoffed inwardly. "Pretending is useless," he thought, "what good can come of such a thing?"
Achang took it from Ade; then, turning to Zhou Fu, he said, "Little Zhou," Hong Ge said, "You can ignore everything else, but whatever they did to your family, get your money back from them first!"
Zhou Xuan responded with a "okay," then walked over to Zhang Yong, lifted his head up, and punched him hard in the face several times, making him scream and howl, his eyes turned black, his nose bled, and one of his teeth fell out.
Seeing his son being severely beaten, Zhang felt heartbroken and cried out, "Stop hitting him! Have you thought about the consequences of doing this?"
Zhou Xuan ignored him completely, threw Zhang Yong aside, and kicked Liu De several times. Liu De had all ten fingers broken by Fu Ying and was in excruciating pain. Although Zhou Xuan's kicks hurt, they were nothing compared to the pain in his fingers. After all, the ten fingers are connected to the heart!
Just as they were locked in this standoff, a chaotic cacophony of car horns erupted from the square outside, followed by a flurry of footsteps and even the sound of gun bolts being cocked.
Zhang was overjoyed; the people from the county had finally arrived!
Sure enough, the windowpane shattered instantly, and the muzzles of a dozen or so automatic rifles immediately shot in through the window, while countless dark gun barrels were pointed at the doorway.
Only then did Zhang Suo chuckle coldly. Among the men at the door, a tall, middle-aged man with a gun shouted, "Put down your gun!"
Achang smiled faintly and tossed his pistol onto the table. Ade also slowly placed his gun on the table. Zhang Suo and Xiao Zhang quickly picked up their pistols and pointed them at Achang and Ade.
Achang chuckled and said, "Hindsight is 20/20!"
Zhang Suo reached out to the tall man who rushed in first and said, "Captain Li, you've finally arrived."
Captain Li nodded. The moment A-Chang fired the gun, the police outside already knew and immediately called the county bureau. The county bureau dared not delay after such an incident and immediately dispatched the criminal investigation team, fully armed. Such a thing had never happened before in this place!
Captain Li glanced at Achang and his group, and said in a deep voice, "Sell them all and take them to the county!"
Achang snorted and said, "Wait!"
Unfazed by the dozen or so guns pointed at them as they rushed in, he pointed at Zhang and said, "Wait five minutes, wait for the call!"
Zhang sneered, "Go to the station. What are you waiting for? No phone call will work anyway!"
Achang chuckled and said, "I'm not waiting for the phone call, you're the one waiting for it!"
Zhang Su snorted, somewhat bewildered. Seeing his son still lying on the ground groaning in pain, he quickly went over and helped him up. Zhang Yong grinned and shouted, "Beat them! Break their legs!"
Zhang glanced at Captain Li and gave him a meaningful look. He and Captain Li had some acquaintance, and Captain Li understood his meaning, smiled, and nodded slightly. These people who tried to steal a gun and assault a police officer would definitely not have a good ending. Before coming, he had specifically asked the police officer who called the police, and knew that the Zhou family who reported the case were just ordinary residents of Qianjin Village with no powerful connections. So he knew that in cases like this, the worst sentence would be more than ten years to a suspended death sentence, and the worst would be seven or eight years!
Zhang pulled Captain Li out into the corridor to talk privately, but before he could speak, his phone rang. Zhang took it out, glanced at it, and chuckled, "It's Director Zheng, haha, probably asking about this. Director Zheng cares about my safety, huh? Haha, brother, I'll take this call."
Captain Li nodded with a smile, and his cell phone rang at his waist. He took it out, glanced at it, and chuckled, "What a coincidence, this is Director Zheng's office phone. Hehe, I'll answer the phone too."
Both of them pressed the answer button and put the phone to their ears, but after listening for a few seconds, they suddenly stopped smiling and their expressions changed instantly.
