Orderly tyrant

Late at night.

Xiaoshan District People's Hospital.

When Lin Qing arrived at the door of Teng Feiyu's ward, he found Director Kou, who was slightly overweight, standing at the door, talking to a middle-aged man with a square face and thick eyebrows.

"Lin Qing?" Kou Guoyong looked at Lin Qing, sizing him up. "I heard you encountered an Darkstar Society assassin. Are you alright?"

Lin Qing shook his head and asked, "How is Teng Feiyu?"

"Mainly due to blood loss. He just finished a transfusion and is much better now."

After Kou Guoyong finished speaking, he immediately introduced to the square-faced middle-aged man, "Director Chu, this is Lin Qing, the leader of our seventh team of the branch bureau."

He then said to Lin Qing, "This is Teng Feiyu's father, Director Chu of our Lin'an City Public Security Bureau."

Lin Qing had seen photos of Director Chu of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, so he naturally recognized him long ago.

"Team Leader Lin."

Director Chu looked at Lin Qing and said softly, "I know everything that happened. Thank you for saving Feiyu. I heard him say that if it weren't for you, he would have definitely died back then."

Speaking of this, he took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Great kindness needs no thanks. If you need my help in the future, just say the word."

"He is my team member, so it is right to save him."

Lin Qing didn't decline, "However, I really have something I want to talk to Director Chu about."

"Add me as a friend." Director Chu took out his phone. "Feel free to say anything."

After adding each other as friends, Lin Qing pointed to the ward and asked, "Can I go in and talk to Teng Feiyu alone?"

Director Chu nodded, "Okay, he is much more awake now."

Lin Qing immediately walked into the ward.

Inside the ward, Teng Feiyu was sitting silently on the hospital bed, his face pale, his shoulder wrapped in thick bandages, and an IV drip in his other hand.

"Team Leader..."

Teng Feiyu looked at Lin Qing and subconsciously wanted to sit up, but he touched the wound on his shoulder and couldn't help but frown.

"Just lie down properly."

Lin Qing walked over to the bed and sat down, asking, "How does it feel to be alive?"

Teng Feiyu was silent for a moment, then said sincerely, "Thank you."

Lin Qing shook his head slightly and said, "Maybe some things are really more important than life, but people only have one life after all, so cherish it."

Teng Feiyu was silent again for a long time before whispering, "I'm sorry... I know I implicated you, Team Leader."

"It seems you are indeed awake."

Lin Qing nodded and said, "It's nothing. As far as the result is concerned, you survived a great disaster, Zhao Jiayi is also fine, and I also got a lot of benefits. I should be thanking you."

"But..."

Teng Feiyu lowered his head slightly, "If it weren't for my so-called sense of justice, I wouldn't have put you in such a dangerous situation..."

"You were wrong." Lin Qing shook his head. "But having a sense of justice is not wrong. What's wrong is your method."

Teng Feiyu was slightly stunned.

"Acting rashly is not advisable." Lin Qing said, "Only by living can you have the opportunity to realize your ambitions. This is the simplest truth, right?"

"...I understand." Teng Feiyu took a deep breath.

"It's good that you understand. Just take this as a lesson for you."

Lin Qing glanced in the direction of the door and said, "Did your father ask you why you were targeted by the assassin?"

"No."

Teng Feiyu shook his head. "But he now knows that I am investigating the Iris Red Society's underground boxing arena, so he must have guessed."

"During the days you were investigating the Iris Red Society, did you reveal your identity as the director's son to anyone?" Lin Qing asked.

"No, how could I say that?" Teng Feiyu hesitated for a moment and said, "However, it cannot be ruled out that someone guessed after inquiring."

Lin Qing hummed.

After all, he came from a public security family, so it was impossible not to have this awareness.

"But, Team Leader..."

Teng Feiyu couldn't help but whisper, "Don't you think it's too coincidental? I only took the investigation results to Captain Xiao today to apply for a search warrant, and assassins came to silence me at night. This..."

Lin Qing smiled.

"Didn't you say that Captain Xiao was newly transferred from another district, young and promising, and wouldn't bother doing this kind of dirty work? There's no need to suspect him?"

Teng Feiyu was silent.

Obviously, he couldn't convince himself with this reason either.

"However, he is indeed worthy of suspicion."

Lin Qing nodded. "What you said before was not wrong. According to common sense, it is very unlikely that someone in his situation would be an informant for the Iris Red Society, but it's hard to say. Many things are beyond common sense."

"Team Leader, what should we do?" Teng Feiyu asked in a low voice.

"Don't do anything." Lin Qing said calmly, "Without any evidence, any suspicion is just slander and asking for trouble."

If it were the past, Teng Feiyu would have retorted, but now he also understood the words Lin Qing said.

In the end, it was just suspicion.

"Just wait."

Lin Qing said, "Next time you see Xiao Peidong, just tell him that you need to recuperate and take a long vacation, that you can't go on patrol duty, and that you don't want to worry about other things anymore."

Teng Feiyu was silent for a moment, then nodded.

Lin Qing couldn't help but glance at Teng Feiyu. It seemed that this young man had matured a lot.

Some things can only be endured or avoided if they cannot be resolved.

And the only thing one can do is to continue to improve and then wait for an opportunity.

He was also waiting.

Waiting for the six Third-Class Merits to be in hand, waiting for enough strength.

As long as he had enough strength, as long as he confirmed that it was Xiao Peidong, it didn't matter if there was no evidence.

People killing people don't need evidence.

"Feiyu."

The ward door opened, and Director Chu's voice came from outside the door: "Your branch bureau's Captain Xiao is here to see you."

Teng Feiyu's expression changed slightly, and then he saw Lin Qing shaking his head slightly at him.

He took a deep breath, and his face returned to normal, as if he didn't know anything and nothing had happened.

"Little Teng."

Xiao Peidong, still wearing his patrol officer uniform, walked in quickly from outside the door, frowning slightly, with a worried expression on his face:

"How are you? I was on a mission just now, and I couldn't get here as soon as I received the news, so I asked Director Kou to come and see you first."

"Captain Xiao." Teng Feiyu forced himself to respond calmly.

Lin Qing stood up and said calmly, "Captain Xiao is here too."

"Team Leader Lin, you did a very good job this time."

Xiao Peidong patted Lin Qing's arm with great relief, and praised, "If it weren't for your unexpected performance, I really don't know how I would face your sister and Director Chu this time."

He suddenly said solemnly, "On behalf of the branch bureau, I would like to express my gratitude to you. This time, I will definitely mobilize the entire branch bureau to hold a commendation meeting for you personally!"

"Helping each other is the right thing to do." Lin Qing said, "Fortunately, I'm good at shooting. This time it was also luck, otherwise it would have been really troublesome."

"Thank you for your hard work."

Xiao Peidong sighed and said, "However, this time you were attacked by an Darkstar Society assassin. I guess it was hired by the Iris Red Society, probably because Little Teng's investigation of the Iris Red Society made the Iris Red Society afraid."

He glanced at the two of them and said in a low voice, "Since the Iris Red Society hired an assassin to silence him, it means that what Little Teng found may be true, otherwise they wouldn't be in such a hurry to silence him."

"What does Captain Xiao mean?"

Lin Qing looked at Xiao Peidong.

On the surface, at least he couldn't tell whether this Captain Xiao was acting.

"We must investigate thoroughly!"

Xiao Peidong's face was cold, "If the assassin was really hired by the Iris Red Society, our branch bureau must seek justice for you. I have decided to apply for a Level Two search warrant. After the commendation meeting, I will personally lead the team to thoroughly investigate the Qingtai Hotel and Red Oak Boxing Gym you mentioned!"

He said coldly, "If we really find the Iris Red Society's underground boxing arena, we will join forces with the public security to uproot it!"

Lin Qing was stunned.

Looking at Xiao Peidong's hateful and decisive attitude, he was a little confused for a while. Could it be that he had really wronged a good person?

But recalling that at Xiao Peidong's swearing-in ceremony, Xiao Peidong's attitude immediately changed 180 degrees after discovering that he was a talented person, he was obviously very shameless and had a deep city.

The current acting skills didn't seem to be trustworthy.

As for personally leading the search team?

If Xiao Peidong was really an informant for the Iris Red Society, personally leading the team would be the best way to cover it up!

...

Two days later.

That is, on January 21st.

A not-so-small commendation meeting was held internally in the Xiaoshan District Patrol Branch Bureau. Not only were patrol teams from various groups present, but also various departments participated.

Xiao Peidong gave Lin Qing enough face and praised him highly.

This attitude made Lin Qing feel that if he really confirmed that it was Xiao Peidong in the future, if he took action, he might be soft-hearted.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to not give him a quick death.

After the meeting, his five Third-Class Merits were also awarded, as well as a 400,000 bounty and a 50,000 reward from the bureau.

His rank was also promoted to Level One Patrol Supervisor.

After Lin Qing helped Zhao Jiayi apply for the purchase of high-energy sustained-release liquid through the internal channels of the Patrol Bureau, she also transferred the money and her Third-Class Merit to him as soon as possible.

"Six Third-Class Merits, just enough to learn two battle techniques."

Lin Qing looked at the record of merit changes that had just been confirmed on the phone screen, and couldn't help but look forward to it.

"I'll go learn it today. There are still two days left to pay off the debt for the battle technique 'Agility'. As long as I get started, I can directly pre-order it."
