Police officer Chen Shu

Chapter 673 Li Meng's Decision

"What a coward! Back in our day, we'd just pin someone down first and ask them questions later. What couldn't we get out of them when we brought them back to the station?"

"Heh, I wonder if the people who came up with this idea had shit for brains or something, how could they come up with such a terrible idea?"

"Sigh, people's hearts have changed. Being a policeman is really boring! Alright, I've finished my business, I'm going to go back and get some sleep."

Qian Tan shook his head and complained, displaying the typical nagging and arrogance of a middle-aged man.

At work, he had to listen to Deputy Captain Li Meng. But he didn't really care that much about Li Meng's attitude. He was a veteran criminal investigator who had been working for half his life, and with his age and seniority, he wouldn't be promoted easily, so he didn't care about his superiors as much as younger people did.

After Qian Tan left, Li Meng frowned and stared intently at the walkie-talkie in her hand without saying a word.

He's in a terrible mood right now.

He felt somewhat suppressed when he received the tracking assignment, because this operation was clearly a favor to the Municipal Public Security Bureau's Criminal Investigation Detachment and Special Police Detachment, while the Zhengming Criminal Investigation Division could only watch from afar.

Unexpectedly, things took a turn for the better. The higher-ups abandoned their plan to lure the people into the ambush by taxi and then kill them, instead choosing to let them go and try to raid their hideout.

Considering that a group of local criminal police officers who are well-versed in the geographical environment are needed for the tracking, the command center immediately mobilized their local criminal police officers after receiving the destination reported by the taxi driver.

This is a good thing, because if you're tracking someone, you have a reason to stay at the scene. Then, you can shamelessly stay there during the follow-up surveillance, and when the raid happens, you can follow the SWAT team in with a small pistol and get half the credit.

Li Meng's distress stemmed from this: he had heard that the special police team conducting the raid would be led by his old classmate, Chen Shu. To be honest, he was only slightly annoyed; his mood wasn't truly terrible. For so many years, he had grown accustomed to working in Chen Shu's shadow.

Upon closer examination, he learned some truly shocking news.

Chen Shu's team was not just a special police unit conducting raids.

Instead, he will lead the entire task force and bear full responsibility for handling the incident.

Abbreviation: On-site command.

how is this possible? ? ?

Absolutely! Inconceivable!
Li Meng simply couldn't imagine how a deputy section chief-level deputy captain of a special police brigade could possibly be in this position. Keep in mind, this operation was of such high caliber that even the city bureau's executive officer had to come to oversee it.

Since graduating from the police academy, everyone has been working diligently within the same system. Apart from a few exceptional individuals with antennae on their heads, most people are striving hard.

Li Meng, as one of the most outstanding members, became a key member of the criminal investigation team at a young age. With her exceptional abilities, outstanding talent, and numerous achievements in solving major cases, plus a bit of luck, she was able to stand out in the workplace.

He became the fastest-promoted and most assertive student in the provincial police academy in recent years.

He became the youngest section-level cadre in the Dongzhou City Public Security System;
He became a rising political star in Dongzhou.

His pride and confidence stem from this.

But then, suddenly, a dark horse emerged from nowhere. This dark horse wasn't stupid; he proved his absolute excellence time and time again with his results. So much so that in the end, everyone's attention was focused on him, while Li Meng, who had been shining all along, was overlooked.

Therefore, Li Meng was not surprised that Chen Shu was able to take the position of commander-in-chief after a brief moment of shock.

But he's just a deputy section chief, isn't he?

I should be the most dazzling young police officer!
Li Meng was not surprised, but felt aggrieved.

Without further hesitation, he made his decision without any doubt.

"Wen Zhao, what do you think of these guys? Are they dangerous?" Li Meng turned her head slightly, looking at Qian Tan's slowly walking figure in the distance.

"Detective Qian's words are unpleasant to hear, and the reason he hasn't been promoted is because of his foul mouth. But I know he has real skills." Wen Zhaowen made a digression, then added with certainty, "Since he said those three were cowards, then he must be right."

Everyone knows how lax the defenses are in a city like Dongzhou. If such a situation, which is bound to cause damage to the city, can be dealt with successfully in the first instance, the resulting achievement will be immense, naturally attracting the attention of high-ranking provincial officials.

At that time, it's possible to rise to the top in one step.

The premise is that the incident is brought under control.

Anyway, the tracking team is now entirely composed of their own people from the Criminal Investigation Department, so this matter can still be handled.

Li Meng clenched his teeth without even realizing it.

"Zizzizi."

A burst of noise came from the walkie-talkie, a sign that someone was about to press the call button.

Li Meng suddenly grabbed the walkie-talkie, held it with both hands, and brought it close to her nose.

Tracking Team, Zhengming Criminal Investigation Department's Dedicated Channel.

"Flying Eagle, Flying Eagle, this is the chick. Three mice have already gone into the hole! I estimate there's still one mouse inside!"

Li Meng didn't speak, the black walkie-talkie in her hand trembling slightly.

"Flying Eagle, Flying Eagle, this is Little Chick. Flying Eagle, Flying Eagle, this is Little Chick." The other side seemed to have sensed something and called out repeatedly.

Sitting in the driver's seat, Wen Zhao also turned his head and looked at Li Meng, who was not speaking, with a puzzled expression.

With a gulp, Li Meng's Adam's apple bobbed, and she said with difficulty, "Flying Eagle, received. Little Chicken, arrange for two people to keep watch at the front and back doors, and everyone else to retreat to position number three."

After a pause, Li Meng seemed to have finally made up her mind, and said quickly with emphasis: "Everyone, move to position number three and wait for me. Please reply if you receive this."

"Chicken received."

"Received, Old Ghost."

"Money received."

"."

For some reason, Li Meng felt that she was being guided by the heavens.

He ordered, "Wen Zhao, drive the car, we're going to find Qian Tan."

"Find Qian Tan? Why would we need him?" Wen Zhao hadn't quite grasped the situation yet and was trying to explain to his superior, "Now that the location is confirmed, we only need two people to keep an eye on things. Why would we need to gather the whole team?"

Li Meng smiled, her tense expression temporarily relaxing.

After setting his goal, he swept away his gloom and regained his former spirit. Moreover, with the long-awaited future waiting for him, and with this achievement, no problem afterward would be a problem.

Otherwise, if you keep it bottled up inside, it will become a knot in your heart, and then it will inevitably cast a shadow over you. In the end, you will be the one who gets hurt.

Therefore, Li Meng made a decision that was completely in line with his personality.

He pointed ahead and said confidently, "Now that everyone's here, let's see if we can take down these three idiots who dared to come to Dongzhou to die in one fell swoop."

Wen Zhao was startled and turned his head in alarm, staring straight at his superior.
