Brother Tyrant drank half a kilogram of white wine, yet his steps remained steady.
He was very happy today; the sons of both the Deputy Governor and the Provincial Development and Reform Commission toasted him personally.
This kind of treatment is not something just anyone can have.
He wants to do the job beautifully and make a good impression in front of the two young gentlemen.
Getting into the car, Brother Tyrant dialed the phone: "Haohao, bring people to Fengmen Building."
Twenty minutes later, the car stopped outside Fengmen Building.
The demolition team arrived with seven people, and when they saw Brother Tyrant's car, they hurried over.
"Brother Tyrant."
Brother Tyrant got out of the car, handed them a cigarette, and said, "Bring your stuff."
They took steel pipes out of the trunk, following Brother Tyrant towards the small shop.
The roads in the old city were muddy and difficult to walk on, with puddles everywhere, and a light rain was falling from the sky. There were no street lamps along the roadside, making visibility extremely low.
The surrounding area was cut off from water and electricity, and there wasn't a single light visible.
Guard Xiao He stood under the eaves of the small shop, his body as straight as a spear.
Chen Songbai asked him to come in, but he refused to enter, determinedly guarding the door outside.
Pei Yuqing's driver, with hunched shoulders, was standing aside, keeping vigil outside the small shop with him.
Suddenly, Xiao He heard footsteps.
He looked towards the sound, only seeing some blurry figures but couldn't make out clearly.
At first he thought they were nearby residents passing by.
But as the figures got closer, Xiao He quickly confirmed they were heading in his direction.
He kept silent.
This was a small shop, maybe the people were coming to buy something.
But then he thought, this area was home to old street neighbors who had lived here for decades, how could they not know the shop's closing hours?
He immediately pressed his hand on his gun and shouted loudly, "Stop!"
Brother Tyrant and his group were already within five meters, and Xiao He could clearly see the steel pipes in their hands.
"Oh? A gatekeeper?"
Brother Tyrant sneered, flicking away the butt of his cigarette, which flew across the distance between them.
Through the weak flares, Xiao He saw their faces full of fleshy features and the vicious gleam in their eyes.
He instantly recognized the danger, and Secretary Yang's instruction flashed through his mind.
He must protect Commander Chen's safety!
There can't be any mistakes!
A rush of hot blood surged into his head, Xiao He immediately raised his gun for a final warning: "Stop, don't move!"
Brother Tyrant saw the dark gun in the other's hand gleaming with metal, and was briefly stunned.
Then, rather than retreating, he shouted, "Yelling at me with a fake gun, hit him!"
"Bang!"
A steel pipe smashed towards him, but Xiao He swiftly dodged and simultaneously pulled the trigger.
Boom!
The gunshot rang out, and someone screamed.
Brother Tyrant's gang's hearts trembled with fear as they realized this was a real gun!
Under normal circumstances, Brother Tyrant would definitely flee, but perhaps due to the alcohol, he not only didn't run but shouted, "Kill him!"
The others immediately surrounded him, swinging steel pipes towards Xiao He.
Just as Xiao He was about to pull the trigger again, a steel pipe struck his arm.
The gun fell to the ground.
"Commander, danger!"
Xiao He shouted, fighting the opponents barehanded.
Driver Xiao Chang stood there dazed.
He was just Pei Yuqing's driver, having never seen a situation like this.
But remembering Secretary Pei's instructions before leaving, thinking about the potential danger to Chief Pei if these people stormed into the small shop, he gathered his courage from somewhere and rushed in to join the fight.
Inside the small shop, three elderly people heard the commotion.
Chen Songbai was the first to come out, seeing the melee, he sneered.
He knew that it was definitely that damned demolition team!
The old leader dared to stand out, so the demolition team was trying to capture him under cover of night!
Although he was old, his martial skills hadn't diminished. He charged in, joining the guard Xiao He in the fight.
In a few moments, they took control of a steel pipe and beat the gang into retreat.
Brother Tyrant's group was driven away, but Xiao He remained unsettled.
The events just now had his adrenaline surging, leaving him extremely excited.
Even the blows and punches he'd taken couldn't be felt.
"Commander, are you alright?"
Xiao He nervously asked Chen Songbai, suddenly noticing blood on his clothes.
Xiao He's mind roared, "Blood, Commander, you're hurt!"
"Not my blood." Chen Songbai waved his hand, observing the footprints littering Xiao He's body and his face showing signs of injury, his brow bone already fractured.
"Come on, get inside."
He grabbed Xiao He and walked him into the house, with driver Xiao Chang also joining them inside.
Inside, after sitting down, Xiao He's emotions gradually calmed.
He casually wiped the blood on his face: "Commander, I'm fine."
Pei Rongguang, who hadn't spoken, angrily said: "These developers are too bold! Forcing demolitions, even attacking people!"
Chen Songbai snorted: "Old leader, don't worry. As long as you don't want to tear down this house, no one can!"
At this moment, Xiao He suddenly panicked: "The gun, the gun is gone!"
He immediately went out and searched around the door but couldn't find it.
It must have been picked up by those punks just now!
Xiao He felt dizzy, standing at the door Chen Songbai said, "Daring to even seize a gun, those Lingjiang people really have courage!"
Xiao He nervously said, "Commander…"
"Call and contact Secretary Yang, report the situation here to him!"
"Roger, Commander!"
Xiao He grabbed his phone, dialed the number and said, "Secretary Yang, we're at Fengmen Building in Lingjiang, there was a group trying to harm the commander. They beat the commander and took my gun…"
On hearing the guard Xiao He's anxious voice, Secretary Xiao Yang, who hadn't gone home, jumped with a start.
Commander Chen has been attacked!
He thought this trip would have no trouble, yet trouble has occurred!
Moreover, the commander was assaulted, and even the gun was snatched by them!
Who were they?
What are they trying to do?
If something happens to Commander Chen, many people's heads will roll.
"Don't hang up, stay in contact, reinforcements are on the way!"
In the office, other colleagues were startled by Secretary Yang's actions, staring at him in surprise, while Secretary Yang calmly said: "Commander Chen was attacked, situation unknown, contact Lingjiang Military District immediately, dispatch reinforcements at once!"
"Yes!" Everyone immediately dropped what they were doing and threw themselves into the tense coordination work.
...
In the aftermath, Pei Yuqing's driver Xiao Chang, after calming down, immediately contacted Secretary Pei Yuqing.
"Secretary Pei, the old commander was attacked…"
"What!"
Pei Yuqing had just lain down, heard the news, and immediately contacted his father's secretary, instructing him to reach out to the local military district.
Meanwhile, he dialed to Nanjiang Province's head Secretary Gao's phone.
...
Song Guanchao lay on his bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep.
He knew what he should do now is nothing, just wait for those developers to start forced demolitions and let the situation escalate.
But he worried those thugs in the demolition team might target Zhong Aimin.
Based on his understanding, if the developers planned to carry out forced demolitions, they would definitely first deal with outspoken troublemakers.
Currently, the biggest troublemaker in the entire Fengmen Building is Zhong Aimin.
The demolition team will certainly find a way to capture him.
Swish!
Song Guanchao threw off the blanket.
He couldn't just ignore it anymore.
He had to bring the old man over and ensure his safety.
