Married the Tough Guy After Transmigrating-Chapter 404 - 405 Captain Liu is Captured

Several public security officers had just stripped Third Uncle Zhou’s upper clothing off when they revealed a back full of scars. One of them, somewhat uneasy, asked, "Captain, this man’s body is covered in scars, and it looks like there are even gunshot wounds."

Captain Liu hurried over, took a glance, then lifted his head with a smirk full of pride, "What are you hesitating for? Get on with the torture. I don’t think this guy is any good. With so many wounds, he’s probably committed some heinous crime. He could even be a spy sent by another country. Don’t just stand there, get moving, and interrogate this ’enemy agent’ thoroughly."

"You bunch, stop spouting nonsense. My uncle is a soldier, and all these injuries were sustained on the battlefield defending our country. He’s not the ’enemy agent’ you’re talking about, and you have no right to interrogate my uncle," Zhou Zhe Yuan yelled furiously.

Hearing this, several junior officers began to hesitate.

One of them, a young public security officer who had long harbored dissatisfaction with Captain Liu, confronted him with a darkened face, "Captain, this man is from the military, we can’t just interrogate him at will. What if the higher-ups hold us accountable?" he hinted cautiously.

A flicker of panic crossed Captain Liu’s eyes, but it disappeared instantly. When he thought about the affairs of Liu Village, if this man truly had significant status and they started to investigate Liu Village, wouldn’t their secrets be exposed?

By then, he’d certainly get arrested, so no matter what, he had to pin down the charges on these people and cover up the incident.

Captain Liu, with a cold commanding tone, addressed his subordinates, "What are you waiting for? Get to it. Even if he’s from the military, if he has committed a crime, we have the right to investigate them."

The young man was still reluctant. Initially, he had joined the public security with the aspiration to protect the citizens, to seek justice for the people, to catch criminals, and to give justice back to the innocent.

But after more than a year, not many bad people were caught; instead, they often intimidated innocent people.

He was fed up with such a life. Looking at Captain Liu, he mustered the courage to speak up directly, "Captain Liu, we are public security. Our duty is to uphold national security, maintain public order, protect the personal safety, liberty, and legal property of citizens. We’re not to flaunt our authority to threaten or intimidate the citizens."

At his words, the faces of a few young officers around him changed again and again.

They quickly pulled him aside, "Xiao Sun, what nonsense are you talking about? Hurry up and apologize to Captain Liu, let’s end this matter."

The young man shook his head resolutely with a defiant face, "I won’t. If it comes to it, I’ll just quit."

He made to leave when Captain Liu blocked his path, slapping him across the face, "You little wretch, do you think the Public Security Bureau is a place you can come and go as you please? Arrest him too. Charge him with insubordination to superiors, insulting the public security, and assaulting the police like the other three."

At these words, the young public security officer’s face immediately turned beet red.

Just as he opened his mouth to retort, Captain Liu reached for a large branding iron, pressing it toward the young man.

"Stop!"

"Stop." An angry shout came from outside, followed by a loud crash as the door was kicked open. A man with somewhat grey hair and a face full of fierceness walked into the room.

"Stop, stop, who the hell do you think you are, telling me to stop?" Captain Liu was full of pent-up rage.

But when he turned his head and clearly saw the person behind the older man, his eyes bulged, and his mouth gaped open as if he could fit an egg inside. Shaking, he stammered out a call, "Dir, Director, what brings you here?"

The man addressed as Director Bai followed behind the elderly man, head hanging low, looking as though he had been scolded. His face full of fury when he looked at Captain Liu, "Liu Zhanyou, as a captain, to think you would commit such an act. ƒreewebηoveℓ.com

"I am truly disappointed in you. Someone, take the captain away and interrogate him thoroughly. Also, we must thoroughly investigate the situation in Liu Village."

It was over, all over. He often didn’t know about such big issues, and moreover, they were done in collusion under his watch.

The worst part was that the old chief knew about it, which meant this matter was absolutely finished.

Once those words were spoken, Captain Liu became instantly flustered. His face turned pale, and in his panic, he stammered, "Director, I didn’t do this, it was—"

"Liu Zhanyou, you must answer this matter clearly. If you dare to conceal anything, it won’t just be your own mistake, but you’ll also implicate a bunch of people behind you." The man said as he moved closer to Liu Zhanyou.

In a lower voice: "You had better think carefully about what you should and shouldn’t say. If you’re locked up, Caiju is my own sister, and your son is my own nephew.

I will naturally take good care of them, ensuring they lack for nothing for the rest of their lives. But if you drag me into this, both our families will be ruined.

Think about your wife and your sons, how they would live out their remaining years. Caiju has never suffered since she was young, how would she support those two little ones?"

Liu Zhanyou’s eyes reddened slightly, still hesitating when he was taken away by some people.

Third Uncle Zhou and others were untied. He moved his limbs around a bit, then stood up looking towards the elder with full respect, "Uncle Wu."

After he finished speaking, he turned around to introduce Old Sir Wu to Huo Chen and Zhou Zheyuan, "This is my former superior, just call him Grandpa Wu."

Huo Chen and Zhou Zheyuan immediately changed their address courteously.

Old Sir Wu looked at Third Uncle Zhou with a face full of joy at the reunion, "You scamp, you came but didn’t tell me. If it weren’t for Guo Hui informing me, I wouldn’t have known that such a big incident had occurred right under my nose."

He said this and snorted coldly, huffing with anger, and glared at Director Bai standing with his head bowed beside him. The walking stick in his hands tapped the ground thump, thump, thump, expressing his inner dissatisfaction.

The middle-aged man beside him shrank with his head bowed, not a trace of a director’s demeanor left.

Third Uncle Zhou looked at the old man with self-reproach, "Uncle Wu, I’ve troubled you today."

He finished speaking and glared at Wu Guohui who stood to the side. Even Uncle Wu had been alarmed by this incident.

Uncle Wu was of such an advanced age and it was inconvenient for him to move about, let alone to come this far. What if his health couldn’t take it?

Old Sir Wu naturally saw the concern in Third Uncle Zhou’s eyes. He cheerfully slapped his chest and said with a laugh, "I wanted to come.

My body is still in good shape, not as frail as you think.

This is your younger sister’s son?" Old Sir Wu finished speaking and looked at Huo Chen with astonishment.

The resemblance was uncanny.

Back in the day, the Zhou family was also a major household, and Zhou Yuelian was the only daughter of the Zhou family, a treasure held in the palms of the Zhou family members.

She was the envy of many young girls, a pity that she died so young and beautiful.

As Old Sir Wu’s trusted lieutenant, Third Uncle Zhou naturally knew much about the matter.

"Wasn’t your sister’s son lost to a difficult labor? What’s going on here?"

Third Uncle Zhou’s face was filled with self-blame as he brought up the topic, "If only I had been there to look over things, perhaps my little sister might not have died..."

He narrated how during his sister’s difficult labor, the midwife suddenly appeared, and how the nephew who was presumed dead was actually alive, telling Old Sir Wu the entire story.

Once Old Sir Wu heard the story, he immediately understood the trickery involved.
