Wicked Soldier King

Chapter 92

THE SO-CALLED UNDERWORLD

This was comparatively a rather deeply serious and deeply silent atmosphere. Qin Wan’er hadn’t thought that Ma PingHai’s death would have such a big impact on the police department. Having said that, the criminal truly didn’t put the police in his eyes, or else he wouldn’t have done such a provocative thing.

“I will declare here that the special investigation team is disbanded.” Chen Wei’s words came too suddenly – not just Qin Wan’er felt surprised, everyone on the scene looked at Chief Chen confused.

Chen Wei felt annoyed from his own mistakes. In the very beginning he had a.s.sessed the strength of HeDong’s police, and he had no choice but to admit that he had overestimated the strength of his own people, honestly underestimating this S-rank criminal. If he had known earlier, from the very beginning he should’ve went to higher leadership to ask for help to send true elites over to help.

Qin Wan’er felt a bit unresigned. If it was her before she would’ve already questioned Chief Chen’s decision, but now she already could realize and understand Chief Chen’s thinking. Perhaps everything Chief Chen and Xu Yun had said was all correct – with the police’s strength right now, they fundamentally were not a match for the opposing side.

“This case is already something we can’t control.” Chen Wei’s way of doing things was decisive. In order to avoid unnecessary sacrifices, he directly gave the order to disband the special investigations unit. “Little Qin, come with me down to the office.”

The rest of the workers handled the work of the aftermath and investigating the scene of the crime, while Chen Wei directly with Qin Wan’er went back inside of the bureau chief’s office.

Chen Wei’s face was grave. Like his state of mind was unsettled he said, “Little Qin, I understand your personality, you’re someone that doesn’t give up easily, or else you wouldn’t have given powerful criminal factions in HeDong City a hard knock. But this matter and those are not the same, I hope you can let go. From the moment you brought Ma PingHai back, I was already sure you had someone else helping you at your side. I hope you can say this to the person helping you that this affair doesn’t need hands to stick in.”

“Mmh, I understand.” Qin Wan’er nodded, her expression serious; but Xu Yun already stuck his hands in. Right now that person injured him and Qiu Yan, how could he let go of that guy?

Chen Wei saw Qin Wan’er’s face was unsightly, and then lightly smiled saying, “Even though I disbanded the special investigations team, but that doesn’t at all mean I will give up and let the criminals go free beyond the law. For handling this kind of culprit, I will go above to my superior leadership to apply for the deployment of Special Units to settle it.”

“Special Units?” Qin Wan’er suddenly curiously widened her eyes.

“Mmh.” Chen Wei smiled, to Qin Wan’er he said, “At your rank you have no way of coming into contact with a few cla.s.sified things, but I believe in your work ethic. I also believe you are an accomplished police officer, and sooner or later, one day you will be in my place or even higher than me, so telling you is no matter.”

Qin Wan’er said with a face full of surprise, “There’s a distinction between Special Units and special police?”

Chen Wei nodded his head, “Those are the true best of the best. It’s hard to say if the famous ones in special police have the ability to enter the true Special Units.”

Qin Wan’er’s mouth slightly opened, and unable to contain her curiosity she asked, “Then just what kind of unit is it?”

Chen Wei shook his head. “I can only know these things. As far as details, that is above what someone at my rank can know. Hehe, Little Qin, if you’re curious then do your work well. I believe one day you will definitely know more than me by far. Young people, their limits cannot be estimated.”

“Chief Chen, can they really catch Crimson Scorpion?” Qin Wan’er felt disturbed, and didn’t believe in the so-called Special Unit that much.

Once he heard Qin Wan’er’s words, Chen Wei’s gaze suddenly flashed like electricity, and his tone suddenly became grim again. “How would you know this t.i.tle Crimson Scorpion!?”

From the very beginning on the arrest orders, to all of the meetings, higher leadership and Chen Wei all hadn’t announced the name Crimson Scorpion, because this was a t.i.tle of the Underworld. And this person wasn’t the same as that little character Goshawk Gong You from before – a person belonging to a mysterious level, Crimson Scorpion’s t.i.tle was something only high levels of police knew, and always had not been announced.

If they announced this t.i.tle of Crimson Scorpion, it may cause chaos in the Underworld.

Affairs of the Underworld wasn’t something everyone working in the police world could come into contact with. Chen Wei as well, only after becoming a bureau chief five years ago did he come across information from the Underworld aspect.

Crimson Scorpion this t.i.tle, in HeDong City’s police world, only he alone should know. How would it come out of Qin Wan’er’s mouth?!

Qin Wan’er had been stared by Chen Wei into confusion. Because Xu Yun and Qiu Yan would also call Hao Kai like this, so she unconsciously called out this Crimson Scorpion name.

“Little Qin, was it that chef living in your panacea restaurant that told you this name Crimson Scorpion?” Chen Wei truly could not resist.

Qin Wan’er froze. “Chief Chen, did you have someone investigate me?”

Chen Wei didn’t deny it. “Right, but I had no bad intentions. All of it was needed for work, I hope you can understand.”

Qin Wan’er helplessly laughed, no wonder Xu Yun always said he hated working with the cops. It seemed like she should’ve long already known the police would have someone investigate her. This guy was truly something, and didn’t mention it her at all.

“Little Qin, I hope you won’t mind.” Chen Wei continued saying, “I want to tell you that someone that can know about Crimson Scorpion’s name is perhaps an elite affiliated with the Underworld. This person is also extremely dangerous, I don’t want for you to incur some kind of trouble or perhaps have some kind of incident.”

Qin Wan’er lightly smiled, “Chief Chen, I in fact hadn’t thought that you would investigate me. I don’t want to accept this fact, but I still want to ask you, you said Underworld, just what is that? I completely don’t understand.”

Chen Wei frowned his brow. With Qin Wan’er’s position, she shouldn’t be able to access this side of the matter, but because there the existence of an elite of the Underworld at her side, Chen Wei still made the decision to explain. “It’s another layer of our society. The Underworld has no laws, no discipline; the weak’s flesh is eaten by the strong. It is a world for the strong! A world where elites are as common as clouds!”

“Elites?” Qin Wan’er frowned her brow. “Chief Chen, why is it that the more I hear the less I understand? What kind of person is considered an elite?”

Chen Wei let out a breath. “Crimson Scorpion is an elite. All of those elites have broken through the limits of the human body. They can shatter stone and break wood; their abilities are difficult for us ordinary people to imagine. Also the Goshawk that you caught before was also an elite of the Underworld.”

Qin Wan’er bitterly laughed, “If so, Chief Chen, back then you could absolutely be sure Goshawk absolutely couldn’t have been caught by me right?”

“Right.” Chen Wei nodded his head. “If it was said that you alone could flip over the Four Wolves Gang and the Blade Axe Crew, I could think that your luck was truly good. But if it was said that you could catch an elite of the Underworld, of course I know that’s a fantasy out of the Arabian Nights.”

“Then back then why didn’t you directly expose me? And rewarded me?” Qin Wan’er asked.

Chen Wei’s reply was very calm. “Because I knew that the person that helped you had no ill intentions, so I hoped he would always secretly help you. This would also be considered a way of helping the police. Back then I couldn’t determine whether he was a person of the Underworld or not. Because the t.i.tle of Goshawk is known by many people, perhaps an elite hidden among the people could handle him.”

Qin Wan’er raised her thumb, “So that’s why the whole while you didn’t expose me?” Hehe, then this time how could you be sure the person at my side wasn’t an elite among the people, and rather an elite of the Underworld?”

“Because Crimson Scorpion’s t.i.tle is something only people of the Underworld know.” Chen Wei’s response was especially straightforward.

“……” Qin Wan’er spoke no further.

Chen Wei looked at her for a long time. “Little Qin, I don’t want you to be endangered.”

“Chief Chen, please don’t worry. Everyone at my side is good and honest.” Qin Wan’er said especially seriously, “If you have the energy to investigate them, it would be better to use this energy to put it in handling Crimson Scorpion.”

Chen Wei was shocked for a bit, after a long while he spoke, “I have no ill intentions, I just hope that you won’t be in danger. You’re HeDong’s police world’s future hope.”

Qin Wan’er’s white teeth bit down hard on her lower lip, “Chief Chen, thank you. But I don’t accept this kind of investigation carrying a suspicious nature. Since the special investigation team has been disbanded, I think I should also head back to my own station. I’ll use my personal integrity to guarantee that the person at my side absolutely isn’t the kind of dangerous person you say.”

After throwing these words out, Qin Wan’er then directly left the police bureau. Her heart was like a tangled mess. Even though she had constantly strongly told herself she didn’t acknowledge what Chen Wei said, but she had no way of persuading herself. Could it be Xu Yun was really someone from the Underworld? That he came out of kind of lawless, the ‘flesh of the weak are eaten by the strong’ world?

Qin Wan’er’s heart was like a shattered five-spice powder bottle. After she returned to the panacea restaurant, she wanted to ask Qiu Yan, but seeing Qiu Yan still had a weakened body, she really hadn’t spoken up and asked.

“Today at noon how do you have time to come back?” Ruan QingShuang faintly smiled, “Are you on holiday?”

“No, just a bit tired.” Qin Wan’er’s mood wouldn’t appear in front Ruan QingShuang. She smiled, “I’ll change my clothes and come down to help.”

Ruan QingShuang felt bad and said, “Wan’er, if you’re tired then rest for a while. Qiu Yan and I can manage.”

Qin Wan’er shook her head, “Better to let Qiu Yan rest for a bit.”

Ruan QingShuang was puzzled the whole morning. “Right, Qiu Yan what’s wrong? It seems like you aren’t doing very well.”

Qiu Yan didn’t know how to explain, only staying silent without a word.

“Maybe yesterday when she ate out she got food poisoning.” Qin Wan’er made up an excuse in her place. “Last night she wasn’t feeling very well, today it’s better to rest for a bit.”

Qiu Yan glanced at Qin Wan’er. Before she didn’t have any positive feelings towards Qin Wan’er, now that kind of feeling was already becoming more and more dull. “Wan’er, I’m fine.”

Qin Wan’er heard Qiu Yan addressing her especially warmly. Last night truly wasn’t taking care of her in vain. “Are you really okay? In a bit if you aren’t feeling well, don’t blame us for not telling you to take care of your body.”

“Mmh.” The toxins in Qiu Yan’s body had in fact already been extracted out by Xu Yun. Her weakness now was because she used too much internal energy yesterday during the battle between her and Crimson Scorpion.

Suddenly a red Golf parked at the entrance. GuoGuo was the first one to open the door and get out, pulling Su XiaoRan she ran into the panacea restaurant. To everyone she said, “Hey hey, today we have a guest!”

“Teacher Su you came! Hehe, quick, please have a seat!” Ruan QingShuang of course was very happy GuoGuo’s cla.s.s advisor could come here as a guest.

Qin Wan’er widened her eyes, “XiaoRan, how did you get pulled over here by GuoGuo?”

Xu Yun closely followed behind and pushed the door open to enter. “GuoGuo invited Teacher Su to try out my skills.”

Once she saw Xu Yun, Qin Wan’er had no more thoughts. Instantly thinking of Chief Chen’s words, she directly went forward and grabbed Xu Yun. “First come with me upstairs to explain!”

Qin Wan’er’s change from the norm made everyone that saw confused.

GuoGuo’s explanation couldn’t help but to seem plausible. “Aiya, could it be that Wan’er-jiejie is jealous of Teacher Su? Eh, this is too complicated, the one who should be jealous is mommy….”
