If you want to be a good person, find Huadi
Chapter 273 Huang Zhicheng's Inner Monologue 1
Huang Zhicheng's capture seemed simple, but it was actually full of drama. It all started with He Shangsheng's accidental eavesdropping. He happened to overhear Huang Zhicheng's phone call that day, which made him suspicious of Huang Zhicheng's actions.
However, what really brought the matter to light was a key piece of information provided by Chen Yongren. This information was crucial to the entire case, but interestingly, He Shangsheng also overheard the conversation between Chen Yongren and Huang Zhicheng.
Chen Yongren's confession reassured Huadi that his efforts and kindness had paid off. Huang Zhicheng had made several phone calls before his arrest, one of which was to Chen Yongren. During this call, Huang Zhicheng inquired about the status of Ni Kun's bodyguards and learned that they were not currently under suspicion. After speaking with Huang Zhicheng, Chen Yongren unhesitatingly informed Huadi of this situation.
Upon hearing this news, Wah Di was overwhelmed with joy. He knew that Chen Yongren had finally understood his good intentions. Ever since their last in-depth discussion, Chen Yongren had realized that Wah Di truly had his best interests at heart. After much deliberation, Chen Yongren finally decided to give up his undercover work, convinced that Wah Di's arrangements were the wisest choice.
Therefore, when Huang Zhicheng called to inquire about Ni Kun's bodyguard, Chen Yongren told Huadi about Huang Zhicheng's abnormal behavior without hesitation, providing important clues for the investigation of the case.
Chen Yongren couldn't simply be defined as a betrayal of Huang Zhicheng. He was no longer Huang Zhicheng's undercover agent, but had switched to Huadi's employ. According to the undercover code of conduct, he was obligated to promptly report all relevant developments to his contact, who was Huadi.
In addition, Chen Yongren and Huang Zhicheng had only known each other for a short time, and their friendship was not particularly deep. Moreover, after a period of contact, he found that the Ni family treated him quite well, which made him want to get out of this complicated situation.
After receiving feedback from He Shangsheng and Chen Yongren, Huadi quickly demonstrated his keen insight and decisive decision-making ability. Based on this information, he quickly deduced Huang Zhicheng's next move. Thus, Huadi acted decisively and, together with He Shangsheng, meticulously planned a capture operation.
This operation not only successfully captured Huang Zhicheng, but also captured Ni Kun's bodyguard, who was bribed by Sister Marry. It can be said that this was a very perfect operation, which not only eliminated the potential threat, but also allowed all the clues to be gathered.
At this moment, Huang Zhicheng and Lu Qichang sat across from each other, a stifling silence filling the room. Huang Zhicheng's face was expressionless, his lips tightly shut, as if lost in thought. Lu Qichang, on the other hand, frowned, his gaze fixed on Huang Zhicheng, as if trying to penetrate his calm exterior and discern his true inner thoughts.
As time passed, the silence between them grew thicker. Lu Qichang pondered to himself that he knew Huang Zhicheng inside and out, yet the man sitting before him felt incredibly unfamiliar. When he learned that Huadi had captured Huang Zhicheng, his emotions spiraled out of control, and anger surged like a tide. He couldn't accept this, and at one point, he considered confronting Huadi and giving him a beating, believing his actions were purely personal and an act of revenge.
However, after listening to Huang Zhicheng's phone recording and reviewing the surveillance footage brought back by He Shangsheng, Lu Qichang's inner world completely collapsed. The evidence revealed a shocking truth: Huang Zhicheng had betrayed the honor of the police and violated their beliefs. This old friend who had once worked side by side with him had now become the person he least wanted to face.
Lu Qichang clenched his fists, his nails digging deep into his palms. He wanted to rush over and give Huang Zhicheng a beating to vent his anger. But just as he was about to strike, he suddenly felt weak. He realized that violence alone wouldn't solve the problem. He wanted to know what had led Huang Zhicheng down this path of no return.
Huang Zhicheng's cigarette burned out in a haze of smoke. He stared at the butt in silence, as if it symbolized something deep within him. Lu Qichuang, sitting across from him, remained equally silent, silently lighting another cigarette for him.
Huang Zhicheng took the cigarette, took a deep breath, the smoke swirling in his throat, and then slowly exhaled. His eyes remained on Lu Qichuang, as if waiting for something. However, Lu Qichuang just sat quietly, without any movement or words.
Huang Zhicheng chain-smoked, his heart growing increasingly restless. Finally, after finishing his third cigarette, he could no longer endure the silence. He suddenly raised his head and shouted at Lu Qichuang, "Why don't you just give me a good beating? Why?"
His voice was filled with despair and pain, as if he was on the verge of collapse. Lu Qichang still looked at him quietly, without the slightest fluctuation, and said lightly: "I am a policeman, I cannot beat the suspect."
When Huang Zhicheng heard this, it felt as if the whole world collapsed. His body trembled violently, as if struck by lightning. His face turned pale as paper, and he forced a wry smile. "Yes, you're a good cop, and now I'm a suspect." This laugh was filled with endless helplessness and self-deprecation, as if he had seen through the impermanence of life and the tricks of fate.
Huang Zhicheng silently looked at the cigarette in Lu Qichuang's hand. This was the fourth one he had offered him. However, this time, he shook his head without hesitation and refused the cigarette. He knew that he could no longer avoid it. It was time to face reality and let go of his inner entanglement.
Seeing Huang Zhicheng refuse the cigarette, Lu Qichang stood up and prepared to turn off the recording device. However, just as his hand was about to touch the switch, Huang Zhicheng suddenly stopped him and said, "Wait!"
Huang Zhicheng's voice, though quiet, revealed a firmness and resolve. He took a deep breath and continued, "I was wrong, I cannot deny that. But I'm still a police officer, and the force hasn't officially expelled me. So, I must abide by the rules and continue recording. I hope more officers can learn from my mistakes and take them as a warning. This is my last deed for the police force."
"You know when I joined the police force," Huang Zhicheng said slowly, taking a deep breath. "That was a major turning point in my life. I threw myself into this challenging profession with great enthusiasm and anticipation."
His voice was a little deep, as if the memory of that experience still left him with a lingering fear. "You know, on my first day on patrol, my companion was beaten to death." He paused, then continued, "And the reason he was beaten to death was very simple. We happened to run into them trafficking drugs."
Huang Zhicheng stared into the distance, seemingly seeing the scene replay before his eyes. "My companion simply raised his gun subconsciously. He didn't even have time to react before he died next to me," he said, his voice trembling slightly. "I was terrified and completely lost. Facing the gun, I flinched. I was afraid."
He laughed self-deprecatingly, his laughter revealing endless bitterness and helplessness. "Just like that, I watched helplessly as those drug busters ran away." He shook his head. "I know I should have bravely rushed forward to fight them, or at least prevented them from escaping. But I didn't. I was consumed by fear."
Huang Zhicheng was silent for a moment, then continued, "This incident has always been a deep humiliation in my heart. Although I have told this to many people, I have never been as frank as I am today." He raised his head and looked at the other person, a glint of determination in his eyes. "Yes, frankly. Every time I recounted this incident before, my heart was filled with hatred. I always talked about the cruelty of those drug busters, but never about my own cowardice."
