"What's going on! Police!" Su Xiaoxiao finally realized that armed police officers and special police units emerged from several doorways, their dark gun barrels pointed at Shao Kun's forehead, making him only know to retreat and dare not make any other moves.
The informant in the corner burst into tears. "My dear police officer, you're too late, but at least I'm saved!"
Splash...
A flurry of footsteps approached quickly, and a group of police officers in crisp uniforms and gleaming epaulets rushed in. They were stunned by the scene before them. "Damn, are they here to arrest criminals or to clean up trash?"
Li Yang, with Su Xiaoxiao in his arms, hid to one side, pretending to be innocent, while Daozi and Fu Jun continued their life-or-death struggle, ignoring the police who rushed in.
Li Yang glanced at the informant squatting in the corner and found it amusing. Fu Jun's move had scared him so much that he was now squatting in the corner. He guessed that the police chief must be so angry that he was having internal bleeding.
They specifically asked him to bring a camera to record evidence, but instead, he lay down on the ground and started filming—was he filming ants mating?
However, Li Yang had already considered all of this. He wouldn't dare to take action unless he destroyed the informant's camera. Even if the footage of him hitting and injuring people was recorded and deemed legitimate self-defense, there would still be people behind his back accusing him of excessive self-defense.
Damn it, wouldn't that lead to his tragedy? It's better this way, doing good deeds anonymously!
Chapter 126: He's lying
"Stop!" a man shouted, parting the crowd as two senior police officers walked in; they were none other than Zhao Yunlong and Zheng Guo.
Zhao Yunlong led the way, his eyes scanning the surroundings like lightning. Zheng Guo, however, followed like a lackey, slightly bent over, cautiously peering around.
"What's going on? Who did this?" Zhao Yunlong was furious. What was going on?
Li Yang certainly wouldn't be foolish enough to come forward and confess; he hid to the side like an honest, unassuming laborer. Su Xiaoxiao, following his lead, naturally wouldn't say a word.
Knife wanted to back down, after all, showing off in front of so many gunmen would be suicide, and besides, he had already thrown all his throwing knives.
Fu Jun was also quite helpless. Before the two of them could separate, several special police officers rushed up and ruthlessly pinned them to the ground. The dark muzzles of their guns were pointed coldly at their heads, their eyes cold and sharp. If they dared to make any move, they would be shot dead immediately!
"Did you take down all these people?" Zhao Yunlong strode up to Daozi on the ground, squatted down, and asked. He recognized Daozi; he was a famous person.
"No." Knife isn't your average idiot, of course he won't admit it. You didn't catch me red-handed. Besides, his movements were swift and sharp, and there was no blood splattered on him. Even if you find out that the throwing knife might be mine, there's no direct evidence. I was very careful when I threw the knife, and there were no fingerprints left.
"Who else could it be but you? Speak up! But even if you don't, there are so many people here, all witnesses. Do you think you can escape?" Zhao Yunlong launched a psychological offensive, trying to disarm Dao Zhi.
This behavior almost made Li Yang burst out laughing. Damn, if you can break down Daozi's psychological defenses, you'll be incredibly awesome!
Sure enough, Daozi turned her head away and ignored him.
"I know who did it. Can you lessen my crime?" Fu Jun suddenly spoke in a despicable manner.
“I know, I know. I’m an informant, I have priority. And Director Zheng said that as long as I do a good job in this informant operation, I can clear my criminal record and restore my innocence!” The informant on the side rushed out like a mad dog and pounced on Zhao Yunlong and Zheng Guo.
Fu Jun was so angry he almost vomited blood. This guy was a complete scoundrel; seeing that he could get a lighter sentence, he actually dared to steal the credit. Fu Jun glared fiercely at the informant. If the police hadn't been holding him down, he would have definitely pulled out his scalpel and chopped him into eighteen pieces, then ripped out all his organs and fed them to the dogs!
"You're an informant? Whose informant?" Zhao Yunlong asked knowingly, staring at the informant. He was furious. Damn it, you're supposed to be an informant, and this is how you do it? So unprofessional! You haven't provided any useful information.
"I...I'm Director Zheng's informant. Director Zheng, you can testify for me!" the man said, looking at Zheng Guo with pleading eyes.
Zheng Guo coughed awkwardly. Others might not be able to hear the anger in Zhao Yunlong's words, but he could. He glared at the informant and said, "Stop talking nonsense and get out of here."
The informant panicked. What was going on? Were they going to discard him after he had served his purpose?
"No, Director Zheng, I know who did this. It wasn't just Knife alone. There was also... there was also... him!" His eyes darted around frantically. No matter how many Li Yangs there were, damn it, the underground space was only so big, and he didn't know how to walk through walls. He still managed to find them.
All eyes instantly turned to Li Yang like searchlights, burning with intense pressure.
Li Yang was speechless. You idiot, being an informant is stupid enough, but now you're trying to bite me. You're asking for a really ugly death!
"No. There's no such person." Before Li Yang could even speak in his defense, Su Xiaoxiao stepped forward to block him.
"And who are you? Stop talking nonsense if I didn't ask you!" Zhao Yunlong had obviously seen Li Yang long ago, but he didn't take the initiative to cause trouble for Li Yang. After all, in his opinion, Li Yang was just a high school student. However, the Meng Pozi who came with Daozi, the one whose bones were broken, and the other people were all the work of Daozi alone.
So he was very surprised to hear such words.
"What evidence do you have for saying that?" Zhao Yunlong frowned as he looked at Li Yang.
The informant excitedly got up, pointed at Li Yang and shouted, "It's him! He's the one who just revealed my identity, which is why I was exposed. Otherwise, I could have taken more useful photos, and I could have captured evidence of their crimes."
Li Yang rolled his eyes. "Damn it, you idiot, what's the point of saying all this?"
Sure enough, Zhao Yunlong's face darkened, and Zheng Guo wished he could kick him away. Zheng Guo felt insulted by hiring someone like him as an informant.
"Zheng Guo, you're not staying here. Go and supervise the escort of those girls." Zhao Yunlong waved Zheng Guo away. Zheng Guo immediately agreed and went to direct the other police officers and special police to escort the girls who were being held there.
"Are you sure he leaked your identity? How did he know your identity? What is your relationship with him?" Zhao Yunlong dismissed Zheng Guo and showed no mercy to this informant, questioning him sharply.
"I... how would I know? He kept staring at me as soon as he came in, and then he suddenly shouted that I was a mole, and then they attacked me, and then he attacked, and then they all stood up, and then this is what happened here..." The informant was nervous and incoherent, and he probably couldn't even understand what he was saying.
Zhao Yunlong frowned and said in a low voice, "Stop talking nonsense and stand aside."
"I can also testify that he was the one who chopped these people up, I can testify!" Fu Jun suddenly stared at Li Yang with a cold expression. It could be said that Li Yang was responsible for almost all of their downfall, and that all their recent misfortunes were related to him. In any case, he was very clear about his crimes, and being executed ten times would be too few.
Why not drag someone down with you? Li Yang would be perfect!
Zhao Yunlong's expression turned serious. If both of them said that Li Yang was a major criminal and that he had taken care of all the people lying in pools of blood here, then he was definitely a vicious and ruthless guy, and they had to be treated with extreme caution.
Li Yang felt a sharp pain in his groin. "Damn it, are you guys targeting me?" He grabbed Su Xiaoxiao's hand, signaling her not to get agitated. Getting agitated wasn't good; when people get agitated, they tend to speak their minds, and speaking one's mind isn't a good habit.
"Director Zhao, they are criminals, and their words are not credible. Their character and morality are not to be respected and should be greatly compromised. Moreover, there is no evidence to support their claims. Besides, I am just a student. I was only with Brother Daozi to save my girlfriend. How could I have done such terrible things? Look at my hands. Such tender hands are the kind of hands that hold a pen and write, right?"
"How could I possibly wield a knife? Besides, you can ask those girls who were being escorted, am I that kind of person?" Li Yang's reasoning was logical and well-founded, which made Zhao Yunlong nod in approval. Even Daozi was astonished, witnessing Li Yang's sophistry once again. It seemed that he had convinced Master Song with just this kind of talk, right? Sigh, the gap between him and Li Yang was really quite large.
"No...he's lying, lying!" The informant shouted almost simultaneously with Fu Jun, inwardly cursing, "How despicable!"
