Police officer Chen Shu

Chapter 97 Student Police Xu Lei
Chen Shu, Xiao Qiang, Xu Lei, and local policeman Xiao Yang quietly made their way to the side of Ma Zhongyun's yard.

Chen Shu took out a few loose duck tongues and threw them into different spots in the yard.

Apart from a few slight thuds as packaging bags hit the ground, there was no other reaction in the yard.

Chen Shu was secretly delighted.

No dog!

A good start is half the battle!

He told the three of them to hide in a corner by the roadside, while he tiptoed around the perimeter of Ma Zhongyun's yard and came back.

The four people squatted together with their heads facing inward and their buttocks facing outward.

Chen Shu lowered his voice: "There's a balcony at the back of the house. The other party might jump out of the window, so someone needs to keep watch downstairs."

Xiaoqiang volunteered.

Chen Shu shook his head and turned his gaze to Xiao Yang.

Xiao Qiang, a veteran, is strong enough, but in this kind of one-on-one combat, especially in an unfamiliar place far from home, facing a violent criminal suspect like Ma Zhongyun, he really couldn't suppress him without comprehensive strength and experience.

Most importantly, this job is somewhat dangerous. Xiaoqiang is just a police auxiliary officer earning a little over four thousand yuan a month; this kind of thing shouldn't be his responsibility.

Xiao Yang understood and nodded without saying anything.

Chen Shu glanced at the large Type 54 pistol hanging on the other man's waist and said solemnly, "If he's really desperate, let him get away! Safety should be our top priority."

This comrade from the South doesn't seem to understand us Northerners very well. Xiao Yang smiled kindly.

The two met by chance, but their mutual respect stemmed from their shared navy blue police uniforms.

Seeing this, Chen Shu couldn't help but clasp his hands in a fist and say, "Thanks, brother!"

Chen Shu, Xiao Qiang, and Xu Lei climbed over the wall and hid in the courtyard.

The main door on the first floor was tightly closed, and the entire two-story building was completely dark.

Chen Shu reached the iron gate of the small building and pressed his ear tightly against it, but he couldn't hear a single sound from inside. Through the windows on the first floor, he could only see an empty, messy hall and kitchen.

Not a single person was seen, and not a single sound was heard.

Chen Shu wandered around the courtyard, touching things here and there, trying to find something useful or discover some details.

useless.

He returned to the pile of junk where the others were hiding.

Xiao Qiang, beaming with excitement, lowered his voice and said, "Officer Chen, this is the first time I've ever seen someone arrested like this. When I get back to the station, I'm applying to join the plainclothes team and work with you!"

Chen Shu patted Xiao Qiang on the head: "Shh! Remember this. When they arrive, I'll rush in first, and you follow behind me. As soon as I take them down, hurry over and help pull them away. Be quick."

Xiao Qiang retorted, his neck stiff: "Officer Chen, aren't you looking down on me...?"

"Alright! It's settled then!"

Chen Shu was still a little uneasy, so he turned to look at where Xu Lei was hiding.

Xu Lei sat on a low stool he'd found somewhere, intently staring at his phone. Although it was clear he'd deliberately turned on "night mode," it was still incredibly conspicuous in the pitch-black courtyard!

Ugh! What kind of people have I brought along?!
Chen Shu sighed deeply, moved over gently, and tapped Xu Lei's phone screen with his knuckles.

"Xu Lei, you might think I'm making a mountain out of a molehill, that I don't take this operation seriously. Although Ma Zhongyun isn't a major criminal, danger often arises from these seemingly small things! There have been bloody lessons to be learned from this in the past!"

Xu Lei looked at Chen Shu, who resembled a teacher, with a sullen expression. He even wondered if he had returned to the police academy.

In the small courtyard

Occasionally, scattered footsteps could be heard passing by the courtyard gate, causing the three people huddled in the pile of clutter to get excited several times for nothing.

For a long time afterward, there was no sound coming from the doorway, and Xiaoqiang and Xu Lei almost fell asleep.

"Click, click, click!"

Chen Shu's spirits lifted, and this time the footsteps stopped right at the entrance of the courtyard, followed by the sound of keys clinking together.

He gave each of them an elbow strike, and Xiaoqiang and Xu Lei also squatted down, bracing themselves and ready to strike!
"Squeak."

The old wooden door was pushed open from the outside, and three figures stepped across the threshold one after another. The man in front was tall and burly, vaguely matching the physique of Ma Zhongyun, who was listed as 1.85 meters tall in the records.

The two behind them were extremely thin and hunched over, moving slowly.

It was too dark for Chen Shu to see the three men clearly, but he was certain that the one in the lead was Ma Zhongyun. Based on his past experience apprehending unidentified individuals on Dongzhou Road or in internet cafes, Chen Shu should jump out, shout their names, and then pounce on them depending on their reaction.

However, Chen Shu had the idea of ​​a sneak attack this time, planning to take down Ma Zhongyun and then immediately flee the scene.

Yes, escape!

When he first hid in the corner, he simulated countless scenarios of capturing Ma Zhongyun in his mind.

The moment had arrived when the tall man passed by the pile of debris and exposed his back to Chen Shu.

Chen Shu bent over and pounced on him without hesitation!

"Ma Zhongyun!"

The power of habit was too strong; as he lunged at the tall man's rear leg, he couldn't help but shout!
As soon as the words left his mouth, Chen Shu felt a surge of annoyance, but he couldn't care less about that now.

He grabbed the tall man's knees with both hands and lifted him up forcefully, while simultaneously thrusting his right shoulder forward.

He let out a loud shout.

"fall!"

The tall man lost control of his body and was slammed face down onto the ground.

Chen Shu took a step and pressed down behind the tall man, grabbed one of his hands, turned him around and cuffed it, then grabbed the other hand and flipped his arms behind his back, making a cross with his arms. He then took out handcuffs from his pocket and slammed them down, tightly cuffing him behind his back!

In the blink of an eye, it takes only a few seconds.

Xiao Qiang ran to Chen Shu's side, and the two of them lifted the man up from either side.

"Let's go," Chen said in a low voice.

The tall man, who was dizzy from the fall, didn't react before Xiaoqiang and Chen Shu lifted him up and dragged him outside.

Chen Shu pushed aside the two men who had been following the tall man and shouted, "Police are investigating! Get out of the way!"

Xu Lei followed behind the others, and together they quickly ran out of the courtyard gate.

"Ma Zhongyun! Behave yourself!"

Noticing the tall man struggling, Chen Shu slapped him on the head, and the man immediately fell silent.

Chen Shu knew in his heart that he hadn't arrested the wrong person this time; the tall man was indeed Ma Zhongyun.

At this moment, Xiao Yang, who had been waiting behind the house, also arrived just in time. Without lingering, they met up and ran straight to where they had parked earlier.

Suddenly, several shouts came from behind, their loudness piercing the stillness of the night.

"The police beat someone!"

"The police are abducting someone!"

"Everyone, come quick and save us!"

"Help! Help!"

"This is going to kill someone!"

Chen Shu looked back and saw the two men running out of the courtyard, shouting loudly in all directions as they ran.

He urged, "Hurry! Hurry!"

The car was parked not far away, only about a hundred meters away, and everyone quickly got in.

Zhu Chaoran had already started the car and was waiting for everyone, ready to drive away as soon as everyone arrived.

After getting into the car, Chen Shu quickly scanned the interior and noticed that one person was missing.

"Xu Lei! Where is Xu Lei?!"

No one responded from inside the car!

Chen Shu was greatly alarmed.

He disregarded everything else, hurriedly opened the car door again, jumped out, and ran back the way he came.

After running for several dozen meters, they found Xu Lei trapped on the roadside, held tightly by the two men.

Behind them, a group of villagers charged forward menacingly!
