Hong Kong Variety Show: From Little Brother to Big Boss
Chapter 294 Abnormal Case
Hearing Bruce's words, the robbers who originally thought they had found a savior were instantly horrified. Chen Zhongshan even hurriedly explained:
"Sir, Mr. Liu's brother's disappearance has nothing to do with us!"
Liu Xu also nodded and looked towards Building B opposite again:
"According to our speculation, this incident was probably done by a resident in Building B." Having said this, he sighed deeply, as if the grief in his heart was beyond words.
He was my closest brother, a dear relative who, after listening to my idea of police-civilian cooperation, patted his chest and volunteered to me. But now, he..."
Liu Xu did not continue speaking, but slowly turned his gaze to Mike, the meaning of which was self-evident.
Mike felt Liu Xu's gaze and understood the deep meaning in his eyes. He nodded slightly, with a hint of unquestionable firmness in his tone:
"Do you want to handle this yourself, or should we do it?"
Liu Xu put away his sad expression and tone, and said with a hint of expectation: "If possible, I still hope to find my missing brother myself."
Mike nodded slightly to show his understanding after hearing this, and then he looked at Bruce beside him.
As the head of the Organized Crime and Triads, Bruce is mainly responsible for investigating criminal incidents such as triads, while robbery cases fall within the jurisdiction of the serious crime team.
Although he has been following the case, it was more for the purpose of getting a piece of the pie.
Bruce received Mike's gaze and patted Liu Xu on the shoulder, his tone filled with sincerity and sympathy: "I understand your sadness, as long as no one complains, you can do whatever you want."
After saying that, Bruce thought that the head of the Complaints Department was his good friend, and added: "It doesn't matter if there are complaints. The British will not embarrass the British."
As soon as Bruce finished speaking, a look of satisfaction flashed across Liu Xu's eyes.
After all, his little brother was robbed because of the robbery. If Mike and Bruce are not helpful, then after this matter is over, he will directly consider cooperating with Xinghan or Windsor.
Liu Xu waved to the people behind him, and Feng Yuxiu, Tian Yangsheng and others immediately understood and quickly came over.
"Ah Xiu, Ah Sheng, and Ah Yi, the three of you choose two from the ten brothers downstairs."
He ordered calmly, "Your mission is to knock on every door in Building B one by one. If you encounter someone who resists opening the door, break in directly. Find out if the missing person is among them."
Upon hearing this, Feng Yuxiu, Tian Yangsheng and Tian Yangyi nodded without hesitation, then turned around, selected two men from downstairs, and advanced towards the old residential building, Building B, together.
The structure of Building B is basically the same as Building A. It also has twelve floors, with twelve households on each floor, accommodating a total of one hundred and forty-four households.
Accompanied by a deafening "bang", Tian Yangsheng kicked open the door of the first household with a fierce kick, marking the official start of the search operation.
Perhaps the initial act of violence had a deterrent effect on subsequent residents, whether they were grandmothers in their sixties or children of seven or eight years old.
When there was a knock on the door, they all opened the door obediently and allowed Feng Yuxiu and others to enter the house and conduct a thorough search.
During the entire process, no one dared to stand up and stop it, no one dared to express dissatisfaction, and no one even dared to call the police.
They were not blind, and they had already seen clearly the indifferent attitude of the inspectors downstairs.
Li Wenbin stood beside Bruce, brows furrowed, his eyes occasionally looking towards Building B. The knocking and shouting sounds coming from there made him worried.
"Sir, should we remind them to slow down a bit?" he asked tentatively.
Bruce turned his head and looked at Liu Xu who was whispering with Mike, then slowly shook his head and rejected Li Wenbin's suggestion.
Although the robber's location information provided by Liu Xu at the beginning did not directly help solve the case, he did deliver the real robber to them.
Liu Xu has already demonstrated his ability and value, so Bruce naturally doesn't want his friendship with Liu Xu to be affected by such a trivial matter, nor does he want to create any unnecessary rifts or estrangements.
Seeing this, Li Wenbin glanced helplessly at Liu Xu who was having a heated conversation with Mike not far away, sighed silently in his heart, and had to give up.
According to common sense, the meeting place between the head of Organized Crime and Triad Bureau and the gangster boss should be a secret place such as a detention room or prison, but at this moment it happened openly in front of everyone.
This scene not only made Li Wenbin feel deeply moved, but also made him feel a little wary of Liu Xu.
In his opinion, those uneducated thugs are not scary. What is really scary are those gangsters who are both educated and scheming.
As the search team advanced methodically floor by floor, when they finally reached the eighth floor, there was a sudden loud "bang" from kicking the door, echoing in the corridor like thunder.
Then came the crisp and chaotic sound of wine bottles tipping and rolling, interweaving into an ominous prelude.
The sudden noise interrupted the in-depth conversation between Liu Xu and Mike. He politely said, "Sorry, I have to excuse myself for a moment."
Then, with brisk and firm steps, he arrived at the door of Room 802 on the eighth floor, right next to the stairs, almost instantly.
Before he stepped over the threshold, a strong, almost suffocating smell of blood rushed towards him, like an invisible wave, impacting Liu Xu's senses.
When I pushed open the door, what came into view was a dishevelled, ruddy-faced man curled up on the ground, groaning faintly, as if he was telling of endless pain and despair.
Liu Xu cast a doubtful look at Feng Yuxiu beside him, but Feng Yuxiu remained silent and led him into the bathroom.
There, a foul odor mixed with feces and urine hit the nose, making people want to vomit. In this small and dark space, three people were locked tightly with thick iron chains, curled up helplessly.
A man, his face as pale as paper, had fainted on the ground, his body covered with crisscross wounds, each of which seemed to tell of the cruel torture he had suffered;
A woman, thin and pretty, but with torn and disheveled clothes that revealed the long-term abuse she had suffered;
There was another child, skinny and bony, with eyes full of fear and helplessness, and his purple and blue skin silently telling of the abuse and suffering he had endured.
Relying on his rich experience, Liu Xu quickly determined that these three people were not only the owners of the house, but also a family that had suffered misfortune.
Not far from the child, there lay a man with purple lips and dying.
At the suggestion of Scorpion Tail, Liu Xu suddenly realized that this was the "one of his own" who had caused him to make such a big fuss tonight.
He didn't care about the dirt and stench on the ground. He took a few steps forward and personally checked the other person's carotid artery. He said in a deep voice, "Although the pulse is weak, the person can still be saved.
"After saying that, he stepped aside. Upon seeing this, Tian Yangyi hurriedly and carefully picked up the injured person and sent him to Queen Elizabeth Hospital for emergency treatment.
As for the remaining three people, Liu Xu thought for a while and decided to leave them to Mike and others.
After all, in this society, women and children always attract more attention and sympathy.
He solved a "serial robbery case" and a "perverted imprisonment case" overnight. He believes that Mike's background and ability are enough to allow him to go further in this year's election.
