Director Zhou is very good at climbing poles and climbing up, and the two sides have only talked for a few minutes, and he has already called Xu Yan a brother very affectionately, calling Xu Yan a "little brother", and calling himself an "old brother".

Although he knew that the other party was just afraid of the guns in his hand and was playing the old trick of delaying the army with him, the young Xu Yan was still very accustomed to this feeling of being flattered - anyway, the other party was playing a "delaying strategy", so why wasn't he waiting for Wen Xiuzhi to come over? Anyway, his military identity was not fake, Xu Yan was very relieved, and chatted with Director Zhou without saying a word.

The two sides chatted for about ten minutes, and suddenly, the phone rang - it was not Xu Yan's phone, the ringtone was from the policemen - Director Zhou hesitated, took out the mobile phone from his pocket, he looked at Xu Yan, looked quite embarrassed, wanted to answer the phone but did not dare to answer. He asked Xu Yan in a tone of soliciting opinions: "Brother Xu, this is the phone call from the office, I guess there is something to find us." If I don't answer, the other party may be more suspicious...... Well, do you think I'm supposed to answer the call?"

Xu Yan waved his hand, very generous: "It's okay, Zhou Suo, you can take it - it doesn't matter what you say." You can report it!"

"Hehe, the little brother laughed. Zhou Suo laughed embarrassedly, what Xu Yan said, he only thought that the other party was saying the opposite, and forced a smile: "Don't worry, of course I know what to say." ”

As he spoke, Director Zhou began to answer the phone, and in order to prevent Xu Yan from suspecting him of passing on the code to the other party, he also deliberately changed the phone to speakerphone: "Hey, who is looking for me?"

A clear male voice came from the phone: "Deputy Zhou, it's me, Lao Cao!"

Director Zhou was stunned for a moment: "Ah, Cao, hello, hello, aren't you resting at home tonight? Why are you here again?"

On the phone, Cao Suo sighed, and he said helplessly: "No way......" Then. He didn't explain how he couldn't do it, but asked directly: "Deputy Zhou, where are you going to the police?"

Deputy Director Zhou was looking at Xu Yan with his eyes, and replied, "Oh." There was an order from above, telling us to go to the Grand Hyatt Hotel in the jurisdiction to call the police, saying that there was a conflict of civil disputes to be sent to the police, and someone reported that he was injured...... We have found the client and are working with him for mediation...... Cao Suo. What are your instructions?"

"That's right! Deputy Zhou, I came to you for the beating of the LaCrosse Hotel. Come back, the boss has spoken, and we will leave this matter alone. ”

"Ahh......h Belch. The direct order of the city bureau leader...... Which leader said that, why did you let us come back?"

Director Cao's voice was a little annoyed: "Lao Zhou, don't ask, I'll tell you in detail when I come back, this matter is too complicated, let's not mix it in...... Okay, don't talk so much, hurry up and close the team, leave it alone. What's the matter, we'll come back and talk about it, it's an order!"

"Ah, Cao Suo......" Deputy Zhou is still to be said. But Cao Suo had already hung up the phone. Deputy Director Zhou was in a daze with a mobile phone - he really wanted to tell his own leader that it was not that he didn't want to leave, but that his gun had been confiscated and people had been detained, and he couldn't leave if he wanted to!

At this time, the eyes of the policemen looking at Xu Yan changed again: if the eyes just now were mockery and contempt. Now, their eyes looking at Xu Yan have become faintly afraid-although their own director is unknown, but everyone is a smart person, and they can all hear it, it is obvious that Cao Suo's side is also under pressure, and he doesn't dare to take care of this matter.

In just a few minutes, the young man in front of him can put pressure on his own director, and the "fake soldier" surnamed Xu in front of him - whether he is a real soldier or not, his strength and energy are extraordinary.

Director Zhou took the phone and sent it for a long time, and then, he suddenly came to his senses, smiled at Xu Yan flatteringly, and said, "This, little Brother Xu, this, we really misunderstood this...... You have also heard it, and the leaders of the institute have also given us instructions and criticized us...... You look, or else, you give us back the gun, and we'll leave immediately, and tonight, let's treat it as if it didn't happen, and you look at it, and deal with it like this, okay?"

Xu Yan knew that at this time, the police were indeed timid, unlike those perfunctory words before, now he was indeed sincere. Xu Yan also said to Director Zhou very sincerely: "Zhou Suo, there is no way! You went to the police to carry out the orders of the superior leader; on my side, my superior commander also gave me an order to keep you until he arrives - so, Zhou Suo, let's not worry, wait and see!"

Zhou Suo was about to say anything more, but at this time, a series of hurried footsteps suddenly sounded outside, as if many people had hurried to the door, and everyone was shocked.

Someone knocked on the door of the room outside, and there was a continuous "bang, bang", and the knock was very hard.

Xu Yan made a gesture and motioned for a policeman sitting by the door to get up and open the door. The door was opened, and everyone could see clearly, and what appeared outside the door was a group of soldiers wearing steel helmets and camouflage uniforms, all carrying assault rifles, with vigilant expressions.

Seeing a large group of armed soldiers appear at the door, the policemen were all happy, and they all thought: Could it be that the above knew that they had been kidnapped, so they sent armed police to rescue them?

Before they could rejoice, at this time, a major officer with two bars and one star appeared at the door, and the policeman who opened the door said happily: "Ah, comrade armed police, you have finally arrived, come in, grab that guy, be careful of his hand, he has a gun......"

The major officer frowned slightly, as if he was very inexplicable at the joy shown by the policeman. He looked at the policeman and asked, "I'm not an armed police......man!" Is it Major Xu Yan?"

Then, without waiting for the policeman to answer, he shook his head: "No, you are a policeman." Major Xu is a member of the army, he will not wear a police uniform - you get out of the way, don't get in the way, don't get in the way of our mission. ”

With that, the policeman unceremoniously pushed the policeman away, and walked in as if no one was around. Behind him, a group of soldiers with guns also rushed in. After the major entered the door. Seeing a few policemen sitting cramped on the sofa, he frowned slightly, did not greet the policemen, but set his eyes on Xu Yan, the only civilian clothes present. He asked politely, "Excuse me, who is Major Xu Yan here?"

Xu Yan raised his head and replied in a deep voice: "I'm Xu Yan, may I ask, who are you?"

The major looked at Xu Yan for a while. Obviously, I was surprised by Xu Yan's youth. He said politely: "I am from the special operations team of the Ministry of Intelligence, and we have received an order from our superiors to come here to look for you - Major Xu, may I ask, do you have any identification?"

Xu Yan took out the military ID card from his pocket: "This is my ID, Captain Liu, please take a look." ”

Liu Qiang took the certificate and looked at it very seriously, and then he politely handed the certificate back to Xu Yan, standing solemnly. He shouted loudly: "Report!" Major Xu, Liu Qiang, the leader of the Second Squadron of the Special Operations Brigade, has been ordered to come to protect you, please instruct!"

Captain Liu suddenly shouted such a voice, not only Xu Yan himself was startled, but even a few policemen over there were stunned. A policeman who was not very sober could not figure it out, and he shouted: "Comrade officer, don't be fooled, we have checked, the man's documents are fake, he is a liar." Don't be fooled...... Whining...... Woohoo......"

The stupid policeman was about to shout again, but he had already been pressed down by Director Zhou and several policemen next to him to cover his mouth, preventing him from speaking - Director Zhou was much smarter than this stupid man. He knew, now. Xu Yan's identity is no longer a problem. Regardless of whether that document is true or not, whether Xu Yan is a real soldier or not, but the other party can transfer a team of heavily armed soldiers in the capital in a short period of time, and can also put pressure on his own director, which is the ability of the sky!

At this time, how dare Director Zhou dare to "catch fake military liars" again. The only thing he hoped for was that Xu Yan would return the gun to him, and let him leave was Amitabha, but his subordinates had this kind of pig brain, yelling and shouting that the other party was a liar - this team of soldiers was obviously the other party's people, and at this time they also provoked the other party, isn't that looking for death?

Hearing the shout, Captain Liu glanced back at the policemen, he frowned, and said, "Major Xu, the situation here seems to be a bit chaotic...... How come these policemen are here, are they here to protect you?"

Xu Yan shook his head: "This matter is a long story." Captain Liu, let me ask you first, what are you going to do when you receive the order to come over?"

Captain Liu Qiang said without hesitation: "We have received an order to come and protect you, Major Xu!"

It has been instructed above, Major Xu, that you are the person in charge of a major national security project, and now your personal safety is being illegally violated. Therefore, the higher authorities have ordered us to protect you, Major Xu, at all costs -- the chief has instructed us to protect you, and this can be elevated to the level of national security, and if necessary, we can use force, and even shoot you! Major Xu, may I ask who is threatening your safety?"

When Liu Qiang said this, several policemen were stunned when they heard this-if it was before, they might have suspected that Xu Yan was a liar, but now that they heard Major Liu Qiang say this, then there is really no longer any suspicion!

Military uniforms can be bought, documents can be forged, this is nothing, but this group of fierce soldiers, their air of no one else, and the guns on the officers and soldiers - real guns or fake guns, the police still recognize it. If a gang of crooks can come up with a dozen assault rifles, then what kind of crook is he doing? Wouldn't it be faster to rob a bank outright?

Director Zhou's eyes were straight, and cold sweat broke out behind his back -- Captain Liu Qiang's sentence "Protect you well, this is related to national security" frightened him.

Director Zhou has been a police officer for a long time and has seen a lot of the world, and he knows that everything that involves "national security" is not a simple matter -- it is a zone with privileges and transcends all legal boundaries, and it is a field where there is no reason to talk about it or even to be lawless. Don't look at yourself as the deputy director of a police station, you can be regarded as a powerful figure in front of the people, but when you touch the sensitive high-voltage line of "national security," you obviously don't see enough -- your own power can only be used against the people, and if you really want to touch that kind of sensitive area, you will also be the fate of turning into ashes in an instant.

In an instant, Director Zhou's face turned pale, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He looked at Xu Yan and regretted it in his heart -- he was not a close confidant of the Deputy Bureau of Mi and was not a descendant, so why did he bother to wade into this troubled water? He got involved in this matter tonight only because he received a phone call from Deputy Director Mi of the City Bureau when he was on duty. However, looking at the other party's position, if the soldiers can be mobilized to break into the foreign-related five-star hotel with loaded guns and ammunition at will, how much energy the other party has, and whether Deputy Director Mi can withstand it. Deputy Director Zhou really has no bottom.

After listening to Major Liu's questioning, Xu Yan smiled - although the conversation with Director Zhou just now was speculative, Xu Yan was not stupid enough to really treat the other party as a friend, and Xu Yan still remembered the arrogant appearance of Deputy Director Zhou who broke into the door just now. He pointed at Director Zhou and the other policemen lightly, and said with a smile: "It's them -- they broke in, and they had to say who I had beaten and forcibly took me away." I told them that I was an active soldier and that I was not under their control, and that I had shown my ID, but they didn't believe me, saying that I was a fake soldier and that they had to take me away, and they didn't know where they wanted to take me. ”

Major Liu Qiang looked at the several policemen present. He frowned slightly—because Xu Yan was blaming a few policemen, which made him feel a little tricky. But it just feels a little troublesome, and there's nothing to be embarrassed about. Because he is an officer in the army, since the chief has given himself an order to listen to Xu Yan, he can only carry out the order.

Liu Qiang said in a deep voice: "How many of you, which unit are you from?"

Listening to Major Liu's question, several policemen knew that something was wrong. Director Zhou cheered up and replied in a deep voice: "This comrade, we are from the Gaoliang Police Station in Beicheng District. I am the deputy director Zhou Liang. When we came to the police, we were also instructed by the leaders of the city bureau to mediate a civil brawl dispute, so we found Comrade Xu Yan...... Belch. We can apologize for the misunderstanding caused by our attitude and working methods, but I can guarantee that we have no ill will towards Comrade Xu Yan, and this police dispatch also meets the requirements of laws and procedures. It was a normal law enforcement dispatch.

Captain Liu, we are from the public security, you are from the army, and everyone is a family. If there is any misunderstanding, everyone should spread it out and solve it through negotiation. Even if we can't solve it, we can report it to our respective leaders, and the superior department will communicate and negotiate, and I believe that the organization will deal with it. As he spoke, Director Zhou took out the phone in his pocket and made a gesture to dial, while saying, "In this way, I will call our leader and ask him to communicate directly with your leader......

Seeing that Director Zhou was about to make a call, Captain Liu frowned slightly, and he shouted: "Put down the phone, don't call--Director Zhou, you and your subordinates, hand over all the phones, and also hand over the documents! You are all waiting here, waiting for the superior to arrive and then deal with it." ”

Hearing Captain Liu's reprimand, Director Zhou's anger also puffed up, he raised his head, and said in a non-yin and non-yang manner: "Captain Liu, it's not appropriate for you to do this, right? Why do you want to pay my phone number? Not to mention that I am still a policeman, even if I am an ordinary citizen, you can't detain our personal freedom like this, do you understand that this is a crime? Your troops don't seem to have local law enforcement powers, right?"

Also, why did you pay my certificate? My police officer certificate was issued by the Ministry of Public Security, and even if we made any mistakes, we can only get them back by the public security system itself.

Because he usually deals with all kinds of disputes, Director Zhou has also practiced a good mouth, and he said quickly and urgently, and a series of words spewed out "suddenly" like machine gun fire, Captain Liu is obviously a person who only knows how to move his hands and is not used to moving his mouth, and he was really speechless for a while, he looked back at Xu Yan for help, but saw that Xu Yan was also embarrassed - in essence, Xu Yan is just a big otaku, when it comes to law and lip service, where is he the opponent of these experienced grassroots police?

At this embarrassing moment, a leisurely voice came in: "Why should you be arrested? Just because you tried to kidnap important members of the central task force and endanger national security -- according to the National Security Law, you were arrested on this basis, and you were wronged?"

With that voice, a slender figure paced leisurely into the room, and when he saw him, Xu Yan shouted in surprise: "Brother Wen—uh, Director Wen!"

Wen Xiuzhi was wearing a suit, looking a little tired, and he still smelled of alcohol, obviously he had just arrived from an entertainment club. Hearing Xu Yan's greeting, he nodded and smiled, but he didn't speak to Xu Yan, but turned to Major Liu Qiang and nodded: "Xiao Liu, hard work!"

Captain Liu and several soldiers all stood up and saluted: "Hello, Director Wen, what are the orders, please instruct?"

Wen Xiuzhi said unhurriedly: "Don't worry, I'll understand the situation first." He looked at Xu Yan and asked with a smile, "Major Xu, are you okay?" Did they hurt you?"

Before Xu Yan could reply, Director Zhou had already hurriedly answered: "No, no! We have never been rude to Major Xu, we are all very civilized and polite, and we have not done anything!" Director Zhou said while looking at Xu Yan pleadingly--he could see that compared to Xu Yan and Liu Qianglai, this new "Director Wen" was definitely a murderous and ruthless character, and as soon as he entered the door, he quietly detained himself as a "member of the kidnapping task force, endangering national security" Big hat, compared to him, Xu Yan and that Major Liu Qiang can be regarded as harmless and kind little white rabbits.
