Chapter 552: Cooperation

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“Someone reported that there is a group fight going on in this factory…” Qi Canghai suddenly stopped talking halfway and frowned when he noticed the car that stopped at the gates. “People inside the car, get down now!”

Huang He rolled down the car window.

Qi Canghai was slightly surprised to see him. “Captain Huang?”

When Huang He took over the Captain of the Criminal Investigation Unit in Jin City, Hongjiang District, Qi Canghai was one of his subordinates.

Such a form of address was a reflex.

But when those men heard that, their face became ashen.

Huang He didn’t show much expression. He behaved as if he had met someone familiar. “Old Qi, are you here for work?”

Qi Canghai scrutinized him. “Nothing serious. We received a report that a fight is going on in this factory and that someone got hurt. So I’m here to check it out.”

“I see.” Huang He then pointed outside.

“I still have something going on, I’ll make a move first then?”

Qi Canghai looked at him quietly for a moment and nodded his head. “Sure, see you again.”

Huang He waved at him and rolled up the car window. “Let’s go now!” he commanded, “Drive faster.”

The car left the factory before everyone.

Gou and the tattooed guy shot daggers at Huang He.

Nonetheless, as the police were there, they did not dare to chase after him and didn’t dare to move recklessly as well.

With hands at the back of his head, the tattooed man tried to explain with a smile. “Officer, there’s no fight going on here at all. Just look around, it’s all quiet and peaceful. All of us have good relations with each other…” With that, he put his arm around Gou’s shoulders and grinned at the detectives, showing his teeth. “See? We’re tight.”

Gou also laughed with him.

When the rest of the men saw that, they also laughed along.

“Hehehehehe… Nobody is fighting. It’s true, nobody is fighting.”

“… Hurhurhurhur…”

That was a bunch of strange laughter.

“Let me tell you the truth, the report that we received is not a group fight but that there are illegal drugs hidden in this place.”

He cut straight to the chase and showed them the search warrant that they had already prepared beforehand.

“We’re just doing our job, please cooperate with us!”

Gou and the tattooed guy exchanged glances, their faces had drained of color.

“But, officers… this is just a cement factory that manufactures cement powder. How can there be illegal drugs hidden here?”

Qi Canghai waved his hand. “Search!”

“Wait, wait, wait… Officers, how about this? Please wait for a moment, just a moment. Let me make a call to our boss…” Gou tried to stop the detectives and took out his phone.

What happened that day was unusual.

Huang He was really questionable here…

Gou was a very sensitive person.

He needed to send this information out immediately.

However, when he took out his mobile phone, his eyes suddenly went agape.

There was no signal.

Not even a bar.

“D*mmit!”

His face instantly went paler.

Those few men looked at each other. The tattooed guy clenched his mobile phone for a while and wanted to fight it out with the police when they heard and saw more police cars appeared. From these police cars, it was not these plainclothes detectives but the fully armed special police.

Gou lowered his head.

The tattooed guy was totally floored by the sight.

The entire factory had no signal. It was too late to do anything.

“Search!”

…

When Huang He’s car left the vicinity of the cement factory, he kept the dagger that he had used to point at the driver.

He took a look at the cold sweat on the driver’s head. “Why are you flustered? Drive steadily.”

The driver kept saying yes. He took a piece of tissue to wipe his forehead and he took a glance at Huang He through the rearview mirror. He had the feeling of relief as though he had just escaped death. “That was a close call!”

“…” No one bothered with him.

“Brother Huang, you could have just ordered me and I’ll comply. There was no need to show me the dagger.”

“I’m the outsider,” said Huang He with a straight face, “whereas you’re one of them. I’m afraid that you couldn’t discern the situation and chose to go to hell with them…”

“Heheh.” The young driver laughed and praised him. “But, how did you know that the police are laying an ambush outside?” he asked.

Huang He frowned in displeasure. “You didn’t hear how that detective addressed me?”

The driver was startled for a moment and smiled somewhat uneasily. “You know him?”

“Yeah, I know him very well. And I saw his car earlier.”

This cement factory was a small one. The office was a three-storey building. A large, flat and spacious courtyard was between the building and the gates. From the building to the gates, there was a flat and spacious courtyard where they could see the gates of the cement factory and the road outside in one glance. The driver recalled that he didn’t notice that there were cars outside the factory.

However, he was convinced when Huang He said that he did see the car.

“Brother Huang’s really awesome. I wonder if those brothers at the factory will be alright? Actually, we could have… stopped and tell them that?”

“Do we think we have the time to do that in that situation?” Huang He snorted coldly. “Besides, we have the goods with us. As long as we take the goods away, they will be fine! Of course, if they choose to go head-on with the police, that would be a different story.”

“You’re right.”

As long as the goods were taken away, they would be safe.

The driver thought to himself and he was very impressed with Huang He.

“If we don’t have Brother Huang, we will be in hot soup.”

Huang He had a faint smile on his face but didn’t say anything more.

Tian Danyue, on the other hand, had been quiet all this while.

She glanced at Huang He and asked a question. “Do you think we should give Brother Ying a call?”

Huang He answered indolently, “You do it then. It’s none of my business.”

Tian Danyue wanted to unzip her bag to take out her phone when Huang He continued talking. “Gou and the others will contact Brother Ying. We’re only in charge of taking the goods. Don’t worry about the rest.” As he said that, he suddenly turned to Tian Danyue. “You don’t seem to be yourself for the past two days? In the past, you were never this respectful towards An Ying!”

There was some awkwardness on Tian Danyue’s face. “Is it? Did you think too much over this?”

Huang He’s eyes seemed dark for a moment, then closed his eyes slowly. “If you say so.”

Tian Danyue: “…”

Her hands froze, not sure if she should reach for the phone or not.

At this moment, Huang He’s mobile phone rang.

After picking the call, not sure what the other party had said but Huang He immediately looked grim. “What? D*mn!”

Tian Danyue felt a chill at her back.

“Brother Ying,” Huang He sounded agitated. “You’ve kept this from me again… Tch, if only you had told me that all the goods are inside the factory! You asked me to go to the warehouse in the suburbs then changed to the cement factory where I waited like an idiot for two hours. I really thought that the goods were at the suburbs warehouse which was why I had to wait for so long!”

“…”

“Aye! I was thinking that since there was nothing inside the factory, it was alright for the police to search however they wanted. At the end of the day… it all bottoms down to the fact that you still didn’t trust me.”

“How would I bleeping know? I’m just doing this to ensure the safety of our goods. These measures are in place for anyone whom I assign such missions, it’s not only used on you…” Over at the other end of the phone, An Ying flew into a rage.

“Fine, fine, fine. I won’t say anything more. We’ll talk later when we meet.”

Huang He let out a helpless sigh and hang up the phone.

Tian Danyue quickly inquired, “What happened?”

“D*mn!” Huang He snorted unhappily. “Isn’t this what he had asked for? It’s exactly what I’ve said earlier. Safety measures? Hurhurhurhur, he’s not going to achieve anything great!”

Tian Danyue had a look of concern. “What did Brother Ying say?”

Huang He slowly looked away. His calm gaze was not as worried as he had claimed. If one could see his expression, he even seemed to be smiling.

“All the goods are now gone.”
