Qi Tongwei: Can I be young again?

"Wu Laosan's daughter, Wu Zhenzhen, was sexually assaulted by that bald man named Yan Wang!"

Qi Tongwei was struck dumb.

Chapter Sixty-Eight: Resisting Arrest, Assaulting a Police Officer, Seeking Death

Upon hearing that Wu Zhenzhen had been sexually assaulted, Qi Tongwei's mind went completely blank.

His home and Wu Laosan's home are not far apart.

They were also familiar with Wu Zhenzhen.

She was a cheerful yet shy girl. Qi Tongwei remembered that when he was in college, Wu Zhenzhen went to Beijing with her bag, saying she wanted to see the big city.

Unexpectedly...

After taking several deep breaths, Qi Tongwei told Zhao Dong to keep an eye on the girl, then pulled Li Dakang into the car and floored the accelerator on the bumpy, muddy road.

"Tongwei, what...what's wrong?" Li Dakang realized something was wrong, grabbed the car handrail, and asked nervously.

Do you know Yan Wang?

"I recognize him. He's a big bald guy, I think he's one of Zhao Ruihu's men."

"It's good that we know each other." Qi Tongwei tried to calm himself down. "This guy sexually assaulted a girl in the village!"

"What!" Li Dakang's lips twitched.

"Wasn't I clear enough?" Qi Tongwei squinted and said seriously, "Secretary Dakang, this matter has blown up. Whether it's Wu Wang or Zhao Ruihu, they are both people from the paper mill. I can tell you clearly now... Jinshan County does not welcome such scum!"

Seeing Qi Tongwei's bloodshot eyes, Li Dakang dared not argue any further.

After half an hour.

Wu Laosan's family.

A crowd had gathered at the entrance. When Wu Laosan saw Qi Tongwei, he knelt down without saying a word.

"Tongwei, you have to stand up for us! My Zhenzhen, she...she...she's been wronged!"

"That's a beast, a beast!"

"Get justice for us!" Wu Laosan gritted his teeth. "Tongwei, you must get justice for us!"

Qi Tongwei looked at Zhao Donglai and asked, "What exactly happened? How could such a young woman be sexually assaulted?"

"Hey……"

Zhao Donglai sighed and recounted what had happened.

This morning, Wu Zhenzhen, who had been staying in Beijing, returned to her village early for the Lunar New Year. However, upon hearing that the fish and shrimp in her home had died and that her father had been beaten, she couldn't sit still any longer. So, after lunch, she went to the paper mill to demand an explanation.

The accident happened at that moment.

Yan, who was Zhao Ruihu's henchman, drank a lot of alcohol at noon and had bad intentions when he saw Wu Zhenzhen, who had a good figure!

He lured Wu Zhenzhen to the security room under the pretext of solving a problem, and then sexually assaulted her using violence and intimidation.

After the matter was settled, he even threw away a hundred yuan.

After leaving the paper mill, Wu Zhenzhen was distraught. After wandering aimlessly for a while, she attempted suicide by jumping into the river, but fortunately, she met Zhao Donglai and was rescued.

"Tongwei, you're the county head now, you can't ignore this. We're not asking for much, just to make that beast pay the price according to the law!" The old Party Secretary leaned on his cane, quite agitated. "And that paper mill, not only has it ruined our Jinniu River, but it's also ruined the girls in our village. It can't be allowed to stay, absolutely not."

Upon hearing the old Party Secretary's words, Li Dakang moved his lips but chose to remain silent.

The matter has escalated beyond his control.

This achievement has suddenly become a hot potato; if not handled properly, the people of Jinshan County may not accept it.

"Old Party Secretary, Uncle Wu, I, Qi Tongwei, promise you that I will give you a satisfactory answer to this matter!"

After saying that, he looked at Zhao Donglai and said, "What are you waiting for? Arrest them!"

"I'll go right away."

"I'll go with you!" Qi Tongwei turned to Li Dakang, "Secretary Dakang, don't just stand there, let's go!"

Li Dakang nodded and got into the car.

Sitting in the car, his heart was pounding, and he felt very uneasy.

"Tongwei, I think we should avoid acting impulsively."

"Was I impulsive?" Qi Tongwei turned his head. "Li Dakang, you know everything about this. What? You still want to cover it up?"

“I didn’t intend to cover it up, but the sexual assault was Yan Wang’s personal behavior and had nothing to do with Zhao Ruihu or the paper mill.”

"Heh." Qi Tongwei sneered, "Li Dakang, let me ask you, where did the sexual assault happen? Why did Wu Zhenzhen run to the paper mill? To put it bluntly, it was the paper mill that caused the trouble! You saw the villagers' attitude just now. Even if I agree to keep the paper mill, the people of Jinshan County will not agree! If you insist on doing this for the sake of political achievements, don't blame me for turning against you."

after an hour.

After receiving a notification from Zhao Donglai, criminal police officers from the Municipal Public Security Bureau had already arrived at the entrance of the paper mill.

These people were all Qi Tongwei's former colleagues.

I also heard what happened from Zhao Dong. He said that as long as Qi Tongwei said one word, they would rush into the paper mill and arrest the person.

After getting out of the car, Qi Tongwei glanced at everyone, nodded, and said nothing; their tacit understanding remained unchanged.

They then headed towards the security booth.

Where is Yan Wang?

The young security guard panicked upon seeing so many police officers and stammered, "Are you talking about our Captain Yama?"

"It's him, Yama."

"He seems to be in his office. Should I call him over?"

"No need!" Qi Tongwei waved his hand, instructing the two veteran detectives and Li Dakang to guard the gate, then said to the young security guard, "Where's the office? Take us there!"

"it is good."

The security guard was also from Jinshan County. He heard the commotion when Wu Zhenzhen was sexually assaulted at noon, but he didn't dare to make a sound.

To put it bluntly, he's a coward!

Now that the police have arrived, he started to feel scared and stopped halfway through his journey.

"Officers, are you here to arrest Captain Yama because of what happened at noon?"

"What? You know about what happened at noon too?"

The security guard nodded. "It was my shift at noon today, but before I even got to the security room, I heard a woman screaming for help. I knocked on the door, but Captain Yan Wang yelled at me and told me to leave."

"What's your name?"

"Zhou Junye!"

"Zhou Junye, you heard someone shouting for help, why didn't you call the police?"

"I wouldn't dare." Zhou Junye swallowed hard and said nervously, "Yan Wang is a gangster and has killed people before. I'm afraid he'll retaliate."

"Judging from your accent, you're also from Jinshan County?"

“Yes.” Zhou Junye nodded. “Jinshan County, Zhou’s hometown.”

"Do you know that the girl who was raped by Yama was also from Jinshan County? Not far from your village."

"I don't know." Zhou Junye became even more nervous. "Officer, I'm sorry, I was too scared at the time."

"If you were asked to testify in court, would you dare?"

"dare!"

"Not scared anymore?"

"I'm scared!" Zhou Junye said honestly, "However, I can testify!"

"it is good!"

Qi Tongwei patted him on the shoulder.

Security office.

Still reeking of alcohol, Yan Wang was playing mahjong with three other security guards, a cigarette dangling from his lips.

Unlike Zhou Junye, these three security guards were brought over from Luzhou by Zhao Ruihu. Like Yan Wang, they were called security personnel, but in reality, they were more like thugs.

The four men played mahjong, chatting and laughing.

Yan Wang, in particular, was shameless and even revealed the sexual assault, which made the other three laugh out loud.

"boom!"

Just as they were having a pleasant conversation, the office door was kicked open.

A group of police officers rushed in.

Qi Tongwei recognized Yan Wang at a glance; his shiny bald head was too obvious.

"Are you Yan Wang?"

"I am!" Yan Wang looked at Qi Tongwei with a nonchalant air. "And who are you? Do you know where this place is?"

Qi Tongwei didn't say anything, but gave Zhao Donglai a wink.
