Xiuxiu said with disdain, "How pure you claim to be. I found Durex in your wallet back in our sophomore year of high school. Hmph."
"You little brat, I'll tear you apart!" Nana instantly became furious with embarrassment and pounced on her.
Once again, the room erupted into a playful scuffle.
A few days later, the four girls flew to Sanya for a vacation. Traveling on someone else's dime was wonderfully delightful, while the few thousand yuan they received from their families were sneakily stashed into their personal accounts.
June 10th.
It was an ordinary day with the scorching sun, very hot weather, reaching up to 30 degrees.
Lin Chuan was driving that antique classic car without an air conditioning system, making it very stuffy inside. He contemplated installing an electric fan in the car for comfort as he drove towards the City Committee.
However, he encountered a police checkpoint on the way.
About twenty or thirty police officers had set up three or four checkpoints along the Huai Mountain South Road. The scene looked quite imposing. Many cars were stopped, and then inspected by the police officers or police dogs.
"Stop the car!" A police officer stopped Lin Chuan's vehicle.
"What's the problem?" Lin Chuan replied irritably.
"Get out and submit to the check." The police officer glanced at Lin Chuan and said, "Today is a city-wide safety inspection initiated by the City Committee and City Government. Every vehicle must be inspected before proceeding."
Zhang Wenhui hurried over, smiling, "Come on out, a quick check won't cost you an arm."
Lin Chuan reluctantly turned off the engine and jumped out of the car.
Song Hao approached in his police uniform, a faint smile appearing at the corner of his mouth, "Pay special attention to this car during the inspection."
"Yes!" Five or six police officers immediately began a meticulous search, and a police officer with a police dog also joined in the inspection.
As the police dog approached the vehicle, its ears perked up immediately. It quickly moved towards the trunk of the car, sniffing forcefully, and then started barking madly, "Woof, woof, woof... "
"There's something here." The police officer holding the dog said urgently.
"Open the trunk." Song Hao immediately commanded.
Lin Chuan frowned, a bad premonition rising within him.
Actually, the trunk of Lin Chuan's beat-up car couldn't be locked at all. He walked over, gently tugged with his hand, gave a forceful lift, and the trunk popped open.
Several police officers immediately commenced a thorough search of the trunk.
In no time, a police officer unearthed a bag of powdery substance from a storage compartment.
"Captain, an unknown object has been found," the officer hastily reported, suspecting them to be drugs.
Zhang Wenhui was stunned, and his expression became grave as he hurried over. He opened the transparent bag and took a whiff. Zhang Wenhui's expression grew dark as he declared, "It's drugs, heroin!"
"Whoa!" An outcry erupted at the scene.
The onlookers were utterly shocked by this discovery. The bag of drugs far exceeded fifty grams, which, according to national law, meant a death sentence. This bag of white powder weighed probably close to one pound, which is more than ten times the amount required for the death penalty—you could be executed ten times over for that amount.
Rustling...
More than a dozen police officers at the scene immediately drew their guns and surrounded Lin Chuan.
"Lin Chuan, what the hell is going on?" Zhang Wenhui looked at Lin Chuan with shock.
"Captain Zhang, if I say I don't know where this came from, would you believe me?" Lin Chuan was neither nervous nor afraid.
"Lin Chuan, who do you think you're fooling?" Song Hao sneered, "The stuff was found in your car. If it's not yours, then whose is it?"
"The child coming from your wife's belly might not even be yours, let alone drugs found in my car." Lin Chuan retorted without hesitation.
Ha ha...
The crowd watching the scene burst into laughter.
You have to say, Lin Chuan really didn't lose his composure in the face of danger. If it were anyone else, they'd probably be scared stiff by now—with so much drugs, enough for ten death sentences, who would still have the courage to argue with the police?
Song Hao was seething with anger, grinding his teeth, "Take him back for investigation first. And the car too—make sure the evidence isn't lost."
"Yes!" Several police officers nodded in response.
As they spoke, several police officers were preparing to step forward to arrest Lin Chuan.
"Who dares to touch me." Lin Chuan's eyes flashed, exuding an aura of authority that made the officers step back, intimidated by his presence. Who would dare to make the arrest now?
"Useless bunch; you're armed, what are you afraid of?" Song Hao yelled, "Take him back for a thorough investigation."
The police officers had no choice but to move forward and make the arrest.
Zhang Wenhui hurried over, saying, "Lin Chuan, please cooperate with us. If this thing isn't yours, we will certainly see that justice is done for you."
"Alright, since Captain Zhang has spoken, I have nothing more to say." Lin Chuan nodded.
After speaking, Lin Chuan got into Zhang Wenhui's police car on his own. No handcuffs were applied.
Zhang Wenhui glanced at the others and said, "Continue with the search; I will take him back for questioning first."
"Zhang Wenhui, I'm the one who found him, why should you take him in?" Song Hao said discontentedly, "You are openly snatching credit."
"I'm not interested in any credit," Zhang Wenhui said with a glance at Song Hao, "I just don't want to see chaos."
Having said that, Zhang Wenhui immediately drove away.
Song Hao was furious and instantly called Song Jianguo.
Then, Song Jianguo, together with Song Hao and others, headed straight to the Huai Mountain South Road police station.
In the office, Zhang Wenhui poured a cup of water for Lin Chuan.
"Actually, I don't really believe that thing is yours," Zhang Wenhui sighed and said, "but it was found in your car. It's like getting mud in your pants; not crap, but it's as good as."
"It seems someone is trying to frame me," Lin Chuan said with a laugh.
"Who?" Zhang Wenhui asked, puzzled.
"Who else could it be?" Lin Chuan said disdainfully, "Who benefits the most from my death; also, who is the most zealous in dealing with this matter."
"Are you talking about the Northeast Tiger and Song Hao?" Zhang Wenhui's eyes widened in amazement.
"Who else but them?" Lin Chuan chuckled, "A kilogram of 'white powder', not something one can easily lay hands on. Jiangbei City isn't that big, yet they managed to get so much 'white powder'. They really think highly of me."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Wenhui's expression immediately darkened, "If that's really the case, you should be very careful."
"Some things you just can't guard against, no matter how hard you try," Lin Chuan said, taking a puff of his cigarette.
Bang...
At that moment, the door to Zhang Wenhui's office was kicked open.
Chen Jianjun led Song Hao and others in, bristling with aggressive momentum. Chen Jianjun scoffed and said, "Captain Zhang, what's the meaning of this? Sitting here having tea and chatting about life with a drug trafficking suspect, are you?"
Zhang Wenhui looked up at Chen Jianjun and said, "Deputy Director Chen, I wouldn't dare."
"Cut the crap; Song Hao is the one who found the suspect, the case should be transferred to him," Chen Jianjun said with a glance at Zhang Wenhui, "Please hand him over immediately."
"Whether to teach him a lesson isn't up to him to decide," Lin Chuan said leisurely as he stood up, smiling, "You should also ask if I agree to it."
"What a joke," Song Hao said, his face contorted with anger as he took out handcuffs, "You are now a major suspect in drug trafficking, come with us."
As he spoke, Song Hao prepared to handcuff Lin Chuan.
Suddenly, Lin Chuan's hand twitched, ready to make a move.
"Don't do anything foolish, Lin Chuan," Chen Jianjun warned as he looked at Lin Chuan, "I'm warning you, Song Hao is the son of Deputy Secretary Song; don't mess around, it won't end well for you."
Lin Chuan glanced at the several officers drawing their guns and said, "I hate it when people point guns at me."
Overwhelmed by his imposing manner, several officers were frightened into holstering their firearms.
"You useless bunch," Chen Jianjun roared, "Take him into custody immediately."
The police officers looked troubled, but they reluctantly proceeded due to Chen Jianjun's authority. This time, Zhang Wenhui couldn't be bothered to intervene anymore. Let Chen Jianjun make a fuss; making a big deal out of it would be bad for everyone.
At that moment, Li Jiangping hurried in.
