Seeing Wu Shouye's appearance, the bald man was startled and thought to himself, could this person really be a police officer

The police officers here were all known to him, and there wasn't such a person! Then he remembered their backing, and secretly cursed himself for being so timid. Why would a small-time cop frighten him

"Slap......... Damn it, mistaken identity, mistaken identity my ass!"

Thinking this, the bald man turned around to look at his hundred-plus brothers; these people were all looking at him, and suddenly he felt a surge of blood rise up in his heart. He raised his hand and slapped Wu Shouye across the face, then said arrogantly.

"Boss is awesome........."

"Boss is really tough, damn it, hitting cops!"

The gangsters outside and inside the room cheered when they saw what the bald man did. Hearing this hundred people's cheers made the bald man feel a sudden sense of elation.

Originally, the boss here thought that Xiao Yu had brought some bigwig here; he didn't expect these people to even dare hit police officers. What else wouldn't they dare do

The slap from this bald gangster made not only Xiao Yu and his group stunned but also Zhang Shaohua and Wu Shouye who was slapped.

After Xiao Yu's group recovered, they glanced at the still stunned Wu Shouye. Then with a look of pity in their eyes, they stared back at this bald gangster and the other hoodlums outside. Originally, Xiao Yu wanted to step forward and teach these gangsters a lesson, but it seems that there was no need now; he believed Wu Shouye would not let this go easily.

At this moment, hearing these small-time gangsters' cheers, Wu Shouye finally came back to his senses. He touched the side of his face and saw that his complexion had turned red with a hint of black.

'Embarrassing! So embarrassing!' This was all Wu Shouye could think of right now; as an executive deputy director of the Public Security Bureau, he actually got slapped by these small-time gangsters. He wished he could find an underground cave to hide himself in right then and there.

Wu Shouye glanced at this bald gangster and the hoodlums inside and outside the room, gritting his teeth as he said,

"Still dare look at me What Want another slap"

The bald man saw Wu Shouye still daring to glare back at him. He raised his hand towards Wu Shouye, gesturing.

Seeing the bald man raise his hand, Wu Shouye instinctively dodged, immediately causing the gangsters present to burst into laughter.

Tonight was a big embarrassment for Wu Shouye. If he didn't take care of these gangsters properly today, there would be no point in him being a deputy director anymore; who would listen to him then Thus, Wu Shouye also became angry. Regardless of the background behind them, he intended to see this through to the end.

Especially since these small-time gangsters had plenty of cases on their hands and some might even be involved in homicides. Only because no one reported it before did they get away with it. If investigated thoroughly now, these people would not necessarily serve life sentences but wouldn’t be out for at least ten years.

"Alright... Alright... Show some guts and don't run; we'll see who can last longer!" Wu Shouye said to the bald man as he took out his phone and dialed a number. He was now infuriated.

"Calling for backup Haha, brother, I’ll wait and see what kind of people you can call," the bald man smirked at Wu Shouye when he saw him taking out his phone.

After saying that, this bald man walked over to a table in the restaurant and sat down. He had an air about him as if he was waiting for Wu Shouye to call whoever he wanted while showing no sign of backing down. The other gangsters also found seats and displayed indifferent attitudes.

They were here today to assert their authority. All that the bald man did was meant for the merchants and residents nearby to see, so they would know that even police could not scare them, let alone ordinary citizens.

The boss of Dingtian had told him that if he could get these people to leave with a compensation of 100,000 yuan, he would receive three million as his share. For this sum, he was willing to risk it all.

Seeing the situation, Xiao Yu’s family couldn't help but feel overwhelmed and bewildered. What was going on Why had everything changed so suddenly, with Wu Shouye now facing off against these gangsters while they were completely sidelined

Zhang Shaohua also went to a corner and called Chu Guoqing to report what happened here truthfully. Zhang Shaohua saw the situation unfold just now; these gangsters didn't even take this police officer seriously, let alone ordinary citizens. If things continued like this, something big was bound to happen sooner or later.

As the head of Shenzhen, no matter what happened, Chu Guoqing would have a significant share of responsibility.

Especially since Zhang Sining and Mayor Cao Jingmin were on the same side. Chu Guoqing only managed to secure himself as the vice mayor in charge of daily operations, but not having control over the Public Security Bureau worried him immensely.

The saying “pull out a radish and bring up a mud” came true with Dingtian Group being that radish in Chu Guoqing’s eyes.

"Zhang, tell Wu Shouye to request for support from the People's Armed Police if necessary!"

Hearing Zhang Shaohua’s account of the events, Chu Guoqing instructed him. Since he didn’t have control over the entire Public Security Bureau, calling regular police wouldn't be effective as these people would likely get wind and leave before anything could be done. Although Chu Guoqing did not fully control the Public Security Bureau, he had good relations with the People's Armed Police.

However, if the captain of the armed police was just an ordinary person, then Chu Guoqing could call on him for help by phone; but now Zhang Dahai was in charge. Even Chu Guoqing wouldn't want to offend Zhang Dahai easily due to his hidden background.

This is why he needs to maintain a good relationship with Zhang Dahan.

Wu Shouye hung up the phone in anger; his own people were out on a mission, and the captain of the Criminal Investigation Brigade wasn't under his command, making it impossible for him to give orders.

The person he had just called, Gao Yue, was still on her way. However, Gao Yue was merely an associate director, bringing only five or six people with her; Wu Shouye couldn’t give them orders either.

Upon receiving the call from Wu Shouye, Gao Yue had already started mobilizing personnel from lower-level police stations but this required time.

This was undoubtedly a sad situation for Wu Shouye. As an executive deputy director, he could barely command anyone effectively, which also illustrated how tightly Zhang Sining controlled the Public Security Bureau—almost to the point of being unbreakable.

That's why Wu Shouye would go to extreme lengths to seize power and accumulate benefits; in such a forceful department as the Public Security Bureau, having no subordinates means nobody respects you.

"Heh heh, keep calling! Didn't you call for help"

The bald man saw Wu Shouye's angry expression and knew that his phone calls had not been effective. Thus, he looked at Wu Shouye arrogantly.

"You can’t leave here today until I’ve dealt with all of you! If you do, consider yourself my son!"

Seeing the thugs' attitude, Wu Shouye's veins were bulging; this was his most humiliating day. If he didn't handle things properly and deal with these thugs today, no one would follow him in the future.

Zhang Shaohua walked up to Wu Shouye and whispered that Secretary Chu had instructed them to request assistance from the People's Armed Police; after all, Wu Shouye was someone Secretary Chu had brought into the bureau through compromise and negotiation. Zhang Shaohua naturally wouldn't let him fall.

Wu Shouye went to a corner of the room to make a phone call and returned shortly afterward.

The look on his face was much calmer; he had arranged for武警 (People's Armed Police) support, and today was going to establish his authority, even if it meant risking his official position. Only in this way would people see hope and have more confidence following him.

Wu Shouye sat down by the seat and waited for the武警's arrival. Seeing Wu Shouye's calm demeanor, the bald man was startled and thought, "Does he really have someone"

However, he quickly reassured himself; his background was a major figure in Deep Sea City, who could arrest him but would ultimately be compelled to release him. With this thought, his heart settled, and he looked at Wu Shouye with mockery.

The bald man had already forgotten about avenging those few thugs today; earning millions for himself was much more important than revenge. Today's encounter with the inexperienced police officer was a golden opportunity to intimidate other merchants; future chances like this wouldn't come again.

"Director Wu, look at what's happening................."

Xiao Yu said to Wu Shouye. He hadn't expected the situation to escalate to this point, so he felt a bit guilty towards Wu Shouye. Today was an unexpected misfortune for Wu Shouye, although these were matters that fell within the police's responsibilities.

"It has nothing to do with you, Doctor Xiao. This bunch of gangsters is too outrageous! We must put them in their place or else they won't know who’s boss around here!"

Wu Shouye waved his hand and said. Although he was quite upset today, after making a phone call to the armed police, his mood improved. He hadn’t expected that the armed police would give him such face and almost effortlessly resolve the issue.

He could now use this opportunity of the armed police coming as an occasion to demonstrate his power. Maybe turning misfortune into good fortune, so when he heard Xiao Yu's words, he didn't harbor any resentment towards Xiao Yu.

In fact, Wu Shouye was unaware that if it weren’t for Xiao Yu and his team being here, a deputy director who had been sidelined like him would never have been able to mobilize the armed police.

Those with keen eyesight might notice that three snipers were already in position on the rooftop across from the restaurant. If those thugs dared to lay hands on Xiao Yu and his family, their orders were to shoot them dead on the spot.

This was Zhang Dahai sending soldiers to protect Xiao Yu and his family. They had just reported this matter to Zhang Dahai, which is why Wu Shouye could so easily mobilize the armed police.

"Boss, Boss! The cops are here!"

At this moment, a small thug pushed through the crowd and walked up to Baldy to say.

"How many of them" Upon hearing that the police were coming, Baldy asked in surprise.

"Just one car with about five or six people!"

“Haha, no problem then! Let them come! Who says we can't rest here” Hearing there were only five or six policemen, Baldy laughed and said nonchalantly.

"Ah, sir!" The thug responded and walked away.

A moment later, five police officers entered. Leading the group was a policeman in his forties.
