Chapter 143 Confrontation with the Kidnappers
Waaaaaah!
"Tagore, we're doomed, the police have us surrounded."
"Useless trash, what's the panic? Keep a close eye on that kid."
Tago pulled out a pistol from his waist, went out of the cabin to observe the situation outside, and found that police were everywhere and they had no way to escape.
Qi Tongwei, holding a megaphone, shouted, "Listen up, everyone inside! You are surrounded. Giving up resistance and surrendering is your best option. Making futile resistance will only lead to your death!"
The kidnappers were in a panic, and when Young Master Long heard that the police had arrived, he was so excited that he almost shouted out loud.
"What do we do? There are police everywhere outside, we can't escape."
"What are we afraid of? We'll fight the police. The worst that can happen is we die."
The short guy is quite brave; he has a small body but great energy. I wonder if he can withstand a punch from Qi Tongwei.
Tago returned from his reconnaissance mission. He couldn't afford to be caught; if he were, he would be dead.
"Tager, how's it going?" the short man asked.
Tago pulled out a magazine, checked the gun, and said, "Damn it, we've been betrayed. There are cops everywhere outside. If we rush out, we're all going to die. You three go out and surrender. At worst, you'll get a few years in prison. I'll take that kid and fight the cops by myself."
"Brother Ta, we'll share the good times and the bad. I'll go with you."
The short guy was very loyal. He was an orphan whose parents had died long ago. There was no point in living, so he might as well make a big splash and be reincarnated sooner.
The other two kidnappers had parents at home, so they didn't dare to fight back.
"Tagore, are you really letting us go?"
Right now, the kidnappers are afraid that Tag will use them as a shield.
"You two get out of here right now. Once you're outside, keep your hands up high and don't lower them, otherwise the police might mistakenly think you're going to shoot them."
"Thank you, Brother Ta. We will definitely help you take care of your parents."
"Go, go."
The two kidnappers walked out cautiously with their hands raised, constantly looking back, afraid that Ta Ge might shoot them in the back.
"Captain Qi, two kidnappers have come out with their hands up," Tian Xiaobing said.
Qi Tongwei, holding the walkie-talkie, immediately gave the order: "SWAT team, be on alert! If the kidnappers show any intention to fire, shoot them dead immediately!"
We surrender.
We surrender.
The two kidnappers shouted loudly, their legs trembling with fear.
Soon after, the police apprehended the two kidnappers.
Immediately, Tagore slowly walked out, pointing a gun at Long Shao's head.
"Listen up, I need a car with a full tank of gas to get out of our way and let us go, or I'll shoot him in the head."
Qi Tongwei picked up the megaphone and said, "Don't be impulsive. You can make any other requests you have."
"You police are not allowed to chase him. I'll release him once I'm in a safe place. If you dare to pursue me, I'll still shoot him in the head."
Damn it, you're dreaming.
"Okay, I promise you. I'll get a car ready for you right now. Don't harm the hostages."
Tago pulled Long Shao back slowly.
Qi Tongwei handed the megaphone to Tian Xiaobing, then picked up the walkie-talkie and spoke, "Special police, pay attention! When the kidnappers come out with the hostages, shoot them decisively if there's a good opportunity. No need to ask for permission."
Luo Xiong was very dissatisfied. His superiors had ordered Qi Tongwei to take command of the scene. "Qi Tongwei, are you crazy? What if you hit a hostage?"
Qi Tongwei could obviously see that Luo Xiong was dissatisfied with him, but he didn't care.
"Captain Luo, are you deaf? I meant there's a good opportunity, but a good opportunity can be fleeting. If I ask for permission, the opportunity will be gone."
"Qi Tongwei, I think you're clearly using this to settle personal scores."
Qi Tongwei was speechless. "Captain Luo, you're a police officer. You need to handle things professionally. Don't let personal feelings get in the way. Did Huang Liansheng give you any benefits?"
Luo Xiong was so angry he wanted to curse, "Qi Tongwei, if anything happens to Huang Yuanlong, you'll be fully responsible!"
Qi Tongwei chuckled, "I've done nothing wrong, so what's there to be afraid of? You accuse me of using my position for personal revenge, but it's as if I wasn't the one who suffered a loss between me and Huang Yuanlong."
Qi Tongwei was in charge of command at the scene, and there was no point in Luo Xiong saying anything more. He could only quickly call his superiors to report the situation.
A policeman ran over, "Captain Qi, the car is ready."
"it is good"
Qi Tongwei picked up the megaphone and announced, "Listen up, everyone inside, the cars are ready. You can come out now."
He immediately switched to the walkie-talkie and shouted, "SWAT officers, listen up! I'm repeating this: if you have the chance, take decisive action to kill the kidnappers. No need to ask for permission! No need to ask for permission! No need to ask for permission!"
Suddenly the phone rang; it was Han Weiping calling.
"Qi Tongwei, what are you doing? Someone has complained that you're disregarding the lives of the hostages and giving reckless orders."
Qi Tongwei glanced at Luo Xiong and thought, "Damn it, is he a three-year-old kid, tattling on me?"
"Chief Han, the kidnappers were armed. I only instructed the SWAT team to shoot them decisively if they had the chance. What was wrong with that?"
"Why didn't you let the SWAT team ask for instructions? Are you afraid of taking responsibility?"
"Director Han, I'm innocent! I said those words in front of everyone. If something goes wrong, I'll definitely take responsibility. Why would I be afraid to take responsibility? It's that bastard who's been gossiping about you again."
"You better be serious. Even if you have a grudge against Huang Yuanlong, don't act impulsively."
Heavens above! Qi Tongwei felt like he couldn't clear his name even if he jumped into the Yellow River.
"Chief Han, I'm a police officer. I understand that human life is at stake."
"I am now ordering you that SWAT teams must request permission before firing. Understand?"
Qi Tongwei understood perfectly well that Han Weiping was protecting him; once the gunshot rang out, no one knew what would happen.
"Yes, Director Han, I will rescind the order immediately."
After hanging up the phone, Qi Tongwei picked up the walkie-talkie again. "Special police, listen up. I'm retracting my previous order. You must ask for my permission before firing. I repeat, ask for permission before firing. Do not fire without authorization."
Luo Xiong showed a smug expression, but he still failed to regain command.
Immediately, Brother Ta slowly led Young Master Long out, the short man holding up his hands.
"All you police officers, step back! Where's the car?"
Qi Tongwei picked up the megaphone and shouted, "Everyone back up! Look to your right, that black car is the one you're looking for!"
Tago said fiercely, "Don't try anything funny. I'm just a worthless life; I'll take someone down with me when I die."
Qi Tongwei advised, "Brother, it's not that bad. You didn't succeed, you'll be released in three years at most."
Tago cautiously looked around. "I'm having my brother inspect the car now; nobody's allowed to touch it."
"Brother, you can rest assured that we won't move."
Qi Tongwei picked up the walkie-talkie and asked in a low voice, "Is there a suitable opportunity?"
A voice came through the earpiece, "Reporting to Captain Qi, the kidnappers are cunning, hiding behind the hostages. We're not entirely confident we can win."
"Then let's continue to observe."
The short man ran to the unlicensed car with his hands raised, got in, started the car, and checked it out.
"Tagore, everything's fine, we can go now."
Ta Ge slowly led Long Shao closer to the black car. Long Shao's legs were weak, and he didn't have the strength to walk.
"Help, help, help"
Tago immediately stopped. "Say another word and I'll shoot you dead."
With the cold muzzle of a gun pressed against Long Shao's neck, the kidnapper's words terrified him so much that he could no longer move.
