Chapter 1260: Who Should Have the Credit?

Translator: Exodus Tales  Editor: Exodus Tales

Xia Xue sighed secretly. Yang Ming is indeed more decisive than I am. He immediately takes action after making his judgment.

“What’s wrong? Why are you sighing?” Yang Ming saw that Xia Xue’s mood seemed to be a bit low. She didn’t seem happy as she made her meritorious deed, so he was baffled.

“Including this credit… it is also given to me by you.” Xia Xue’s voice was very low; she seemed to be sorry.

“Are you still thinking about these things?” Yang Ming listened to Xia Xue’s words, and he knew that she had not gotten over it because he had given her the credit every time. This couldn’t be solved just by a few words. So, after Yang Ming tried to persuade her before, he couldn’t keep persuading her.

“Yang Ming, if you were not there, wouldn’t this drug dealer have run away?” Xia Xue glanced at the drug dealer who was handcuffed and fainted on the ground.

“Xia Xue, I am different from you.” Yang Ming could only say this. “So, some things can’t be forced. The toll collector and the traffic police on duty were just doubting. When the drug dealer suddenly turned around and escaped, they were surprised too. Therefore, you don’t need to have any psychological burden about it. I hope you can understand this.”

Xia Xue listened to Yang Ming’s words and nodded silently. Indeed, Xia Xue felt better after listening to Yang Ming’s words, but it took a certain amount of time to digest it completely.

While they were talking, there was a rush of sirens and high-pitched horns in the distance. It seemed that a large number of police cars pincered them from both sides.

The traffic police and the toll collector of the expressway highway exit apparently realized that things were unusual, and they immediately called for reinforcements, so a large number of police cars arrived.

They heard the screeching of brakes; many heavily armed policemen quickly jumped out of the police cars with guns, shouting loudly at Yang Ming and Xia Xue with a megaphone, “The people inside listen. You are already surrounded; please don’t resist, or we will shoot.”

Yang Ming and Xia Xue looked at each other and smiled bitterly. However, Xia Xue felt awkward instead. This was the consistent style of their police. After coming to the scene, they must first control the situation.

Yang Ming didn’t feel that it was inappropriate. After all, it was a situation where one couldn’t differentiate between an enemy and ally so it was a must to control the scene first.

Yang Ming and Xia Xue both stood there and did nothing, and the police came together.

These policemen were from Donghai. They didn’t know Xia Xue. They were stunned when they saw Xia Xue and Yang Ming standing on the spot, and a person handcuffed on the ground.

The police officer in front said, “What is going on here? Who is on the ground?”

Xia Xue just wanted to answer, but at this time, the police car coming from the opposite side also arrived! The Santana was bumped by Yang Ming into the ditch not long after he ran away from the toll booth. The car sent by Song Jiang to intercept just arrived even though it was driving fast because it was coming from far away.

The police movement on Song Jiang’s side was exactly the same as that on Donghai. After getting off, they were also aiming their guns and preparing to shout. However, the police saw that the Donghai police had already arrived, so they did not continue to shout.

However, the police on Song Jiang’s side looked at the middle of the encirclement, and they were suddenly shocked. “Deputy Captain Xia, why are you here?”

Song Jiang’s police naturally knew Xia Xue. The leader who brought the team was Deputy Captain Li of the Criminal Investigation Team. After seeing Xia Xue, he was unexpectedly surprised.

“Old Li?” Xia Xue also saw the police who came.

“This is the Deputy Captain Xia of the Criminal Investigation Team of our Song Jiang Police Department. You all put down your guns!” Old Li said to the Donghai police.

“Old Li? This is your new Captain Xia?” At the back of the other team, a middle-aged man came out. He apparently knew Deputy Captain Li.

“Captain Yang, you come in person?” Old Li was surprised when he saw the person. The other party was from the Criminal Investigation Team of the Donghai Police Department. Old Li had business contacts with him.

“I was in the process of checking the security work in this area. I received a report from here that said a Santana car refused inspection and turned around. I thought the matter may not be so simple and may involve a criminal case, so I came over personally. I didn’t expect…” When Captain Yang spoke until here, he looked at Xia Xue. “I didn’t expect Deputy Captain Xia to be one step ahead of me, but we have seen Deputy Captain Xia, and we almost had a misunderstanding.”

Xia Xue’s promotion to the deputy captain and the captain of the team was only a matter of a year ago. During this time, there were no business dealings with Donghai, so it was reasonable for them not to know each other.

Concerning Xia Xue, Captain Yang also heard that she solved a smuggling case, and even assisted the Supernatural Investigation Bureau in arresting a mysterious character a while ago. She was a female hero.

Now that Captain Yang saw that Xia Xue was only about twenty years old or so, he inevitably felt a little contempt. He saw Xia Xue wearing casual dress and standing together with an unfamiliar man, and from the unfamiliar man’s license plate number, he could see that this person must be a rich second generation. When he saw Xia Xue being with such a person, he felt that Xia Xue was just so-so.

His good impression of Xia Xue from before he saw her was reduced.

The face of the Santana’s driver was revealed after the blood on his face was wiped.

“Why is he so familiar?!” Xia Xue, Captain Yang, and Old Li almost cried at the same time.

Xia Xue was traveling in a casual outfit. She didn’t bring her police PDA, so she couldn’t directly connect to the Internet and check his identity. However, both Old Li and Captain Yang had taken out their PDAs to inquire about the driver’s identity.

“Er Luokang?” Captain Yang and Old Li almost unanimously said the name of this Santana driver.

Xia Xue immediately responded after hearing the name Er Luokang. This person was an A-level wanted criminal. He was a drug lord in the Yunnan area. He often traveled to northern cities to supply underground drugs.

“Bring him back!” After Captain Yang confirmed the person’s identity in front of him, his heart could not help but be a little excited. This was a great achievement. If he could search according to this lead, he could find a higher-level behind-the-scenes character. It would be a great merit.

Old Li heard Captain Yang said this, and he was somewhat unhappy. “He was caught by our Deputy Captain Xia. He is supposed to be brought back to our Song Jiang Police Department. Why are you bringing him back to Donghai?”

Arresting Er Luokang was great merit. Old Li certainly didn’t want this credit to be snatched by others.

“This is the border of Donghai. Of course, he should be brought to Donghai first,” said Captain Yang. “As for where will he be escorted in the end, we can only make a decision after we report to the province.”

What Captain Yang said was reasonable. Old Li couldn’t refute for a while. Indeed, this was Donghai’s territory, not Song Jiang. Now it could only depend on Xia Xue’s attitude.

“I am the one who drove, and I am the one who hit the person. Don’t you have to ask me if you want to take him away?” Yang Ming said indifferently at this time.

Yang Ming could accept giving the credit to Xia Xue. Aside from his relationship with Xia Xue, Xia Xue was also involved in arresting Er Luokang. However, Yang Ming wasn’t happy to give the credit to someone else.

Seeing that Yang Ming hadn’t said anything yet, the two sides were already fighting for the credit. Yang Ming was a bit unhappy immediately. Although both sides were reasonable, and Yang Ming understood their feelings, he was in charge of this matter!

Captain Yang was suddenly astounded hearing Yang Ming speak. He thought that Yang Ming was just a rich second generation and had nothing to do with the police. Maybe he was just Xia Xue’s boyfriend. But listening to Yang Ming at this moment, it seemed that arresting Er Luokang was Yang Ming’s effort.

“It is the duty of every citizen to assist the police in handling the case. Of course, since you have assisted us in catching Er Luokang, we will also give you a certain degree of reward, but the prisoner still has to be handed over to our police.” Captain Yang thought Yang Ming said this to give Xia Xue the credit, so he explained it to Yang Ming.

In fact, the merit of arresting Er Luokang undoubtedly belonged to Xia Xue. The dispute between the two sides was actually regarding the first-hand statement of Er Luokang. The merit that they were fighting for was to catch the person behind Er Luokang.

Yang Ming looked at Captain Yang and smiled a little. Then he stepped forward and pulled the sleeve of Captain Yang. “You come with me.”

Captain Yang was slightly stunned by Yang Ming’s inexplicable movement, but he still followed Yang Ming. Yang Ming could drive a luxury car with this license which also explained his economic status and social status. He was also Xia Xue’s boyfriend, so Captain Yang had to give Yang Ming face. If he didn’t follow Yang Ming, he would seem stingy or fearful instead.

“This is my ID card. You should look at it first.” As Yang Ming said this, he took a small book from his jacket pocket and handed it to Captain Yang.

ID? Captain Yang was even more inexplicable at that moment. Why is Yang Ming suddenly showing me his ID? Captain Yang took the small book that Yang Ming handed him with doubt. He was surprised by just looking at the cover of the book.

He naturally knew some secrets at his level, just like Chen Fei of Song Jiang, so Yang Ming only showed him the ID. Yang Ming wasn’t afraid that he would tell others.

When he opened the book, he saw Yang Ming’s photo and the strong steel stamp; Captain Yang’s face suddenly changed.

Yang Ming had already expected that he would have this look. Anyone would be surprised to see Yang Ming’s ID. Yang Ming took the ID from Captain Yang and put it back in his pocket. “Captain Yang, this person will be escorted to Song Jiang.”

At this time, how could Captain Yang not listen to Yang Ming’s words? Since the Supernatural Investigation Bureau was taking this person, they could only cooperate. Therefore, when he learned about Yang Ming’s identity, he didn’t want to fight for this merit anymore. This person was arrested by Yang Ming. Captain Yang couldn’t determine why the Supernatural Investigation Bureau was involved in this case. However, Yang Ming wouldn’t tell him even if he asked Yang Ming because this was his work discipline. Captain Yang wouldn’t ask either.
