After spending the whole afternoon talking to Su Jiang individually, the group hadn’t done much else.
Now, they were all still hungry and ready to go eat together.
“What’s going on with this…”
A detective from the Inspectorate grumbled as he walked to the door, intending to push open the Inspectorate’s door and go out for a meal.
He tried to push the door open, but it wouldn’t budge.
“Hey, who locked the door?”
Turning back in annoyance, he shouted. His mood was already not great after being bothered by Su Jiang all day, and now encountering this prank.
Upon hearing his shout, several people stepped forward to push the door, but it remained firmly shut.
One of them immediately sensed something was wrong, carefully observed, and exclaimed in surprise, “The door was locked from the outside!”
“Who’s playing this trick? I don’t have time to play with you, hurry up and open the door!”
“Yeah, we’re all busy eating!”
As everyone shouted and panicked, a bullet tore through the air and pierced a window of the Inspectorate with a loud “crack!”
The shattered glass scattered on the ground, and everyone immediately became alert, seeking cover at the first opportunity.
Darn it! There’s an assassin!
“Old Xu, there’s a sniper, call for help!”
“Call for help? Aren’t we the police ourselves?”
The person paused, realizing that indeed, the Inspectorate was part of the police force, and their ability to handle incidents was even higher than the regular police.
Just as the group was still trying to process the situation, the Inspectorate’s broadcast suddenly crackled to life with a “zzz” sound.
“Hey hey hey, can you all hear me?”
Inside the office, Su Jiang locked the door, grabbed the microphone, and used a voice-changing method to speak.
After a brief lesson from Li Cai, Su Jiang quickly learned a voice-changing method and started using it. Of course, he made sure not to sound like a woman.
At the same time, Yang Ming thoughtfully synchronized the surveillance footage on his computer, allowing Su to monitor their every move.
“Ahem, let me introduce myself. I’m the Cold Noodle King, the one that just shot at someone from your group is called Handsome Guy with a Toy Gun.”
“So, if any of you were injured by that bullet earlier, don’t come looking for revenge at me, go find him.”
After Su Jiang finished speaking, he heard Li Cai’s angry voice through the earpiece.
But Su Jiang ignored it and continued:
“Now, all of you, you’re surrounded by me.”
“You can’t leave, and it’s best not to act recklessly, because our Handsome Guy with a Toy Gun is a sharpshooter, with a perfect aim every time.”
“A sharpshooter, can take down your type in a minute.”
The people at the Inspectorate frowned upon hearing the broadcast, especially when they heard the two individuals’ code names. They wanted to criticize, but held their tongues.
Now was not the time for criticism.
The Inspectorate detective known as Old Xu was the first to regain his composure from the chaos. He quietly said to his companion beside him:
“Later, sneak into the broadcast room and see if there’s anyone there. We’ll cover for you!”
Old Xu took a step forward after speaking.
“Bang!”
Another bullet, different from the previous one, this time Li Cai aimed precisely a few centimeters in front of Old Xu’s toes.
“I said not to act recklessly, why didn’t you listen?”
Su Jiang chuckled lightly. Li Cai couldn’t see the entire situation inside the Inspectorate, but Su Jiang could.
Just now, Su Jiang saw through the surveillance footage that Old Xu was making a move, so without hesitation, Li Cai swiftly fired a bullet in response.
With this action, the people at the Inspectorate no longer dared to act recklessly. Li Cai’s shot made it clear to them that the other party was truly a sniper expert.
Old Xu took a deep breath. He knew that at this moment, someone needed to step up and engage with the other party.
Therefore, he slowly lowered his gun, looked up at the position of the speaker, and spoke:
“What do you want?”
Su Jiang raised an eyebrow. It seemed that not everyone at the Inspectorate was useless; there were still a few brave enough to step forward.
“Hehehe, what do I want?”
“I believe all of you here received my threatening letter this morning, right?”
The faces of the people immediately changed. That thing was sent by this mysterious Cold Noodle King?
But… a threatening letter?
They hadn’t realized it was a threatening letter until now.
It seems like the threatening letter was written in a particular way.
Then, Su Jiang continued, “Don’t worry, as long as everyone follows my instructions, I won’t harm any of you.”
Old Xu, with a grim expression, asked, “So, what do you want to do then?”
“I want you to do something very simple.”
Su Jiang paused and said slowly, “I hope that all of you…”
“I hope that all of you can resign from your positions at the Inspectorate in Jiangdu City, leading to the complete dissolution of the Inspectorate!”
“Nonsense!”
Old Xu didn’t even hesitate to speak out. Dissolve the Inspectorate? That was absolutely impossible.
Moreover, if they lost their jobs, what would they eat and drink?
At that moment, not only Old Xu but also the rest of the Inspectorate personnel became emotionally stirred, shouting together, all expressing that they would not resign from the Inspectorate.
Su Jiang watched them and directly signaled for Li Cai to fire another shot, silencing the crowd.
“I believe there might be some misunderstanding among you?”
“Asking you to resign from the Inspectorate is a notification, not a negotiation.”
“And today is just the beginning. The fact that I can send you threatening letters means that your information is completely transparent to me. I can strike at you anytime.”
“Even if you’re not afraid, what about your families?”
As Su Jiang’s words fell, the expressions on the faces of the Inspectorate personnel began to change continuously.
Undoubtedly, this was a threat, a blatant and naked threat.
Using their families’ lives to threaten them to resign from the Inspectorate.
The group fell into silence, weighing their options in their hearts.
Some remained angry, some started to hesitate, some clenched their teeth with resentment in their eyes, and some…
“I… I’ll resign!”
A slightly frail-looking man timidly raised his hand, ignoring the astonished gazes around him, trembling as he said:
“My… my child has just been born. Please, don’t harm my wife and child.”
“If you say so, I’ll do it. I’ll leave the Inspectorate today and never come back!”
Su Jiang quietly watched the man, glanced at the list on the table, and matched the photos. He quickly identified the man’s information.
“Very well, your name is Shi Guan, right?”
“Since you’ve done as I said, I won’t harm your wife and child.”
“Anyone else?”
The crowd was extremely surprised. Su Jiang actually called out Shi Guan’s name so easily, indicating that he truly had all their information.
One by one, more people raised their hands.
“I’ll resign!”
“I, I’ll resign too!”
“…”
Those who chose to resign now all had family ties, with only a very few being genuinely afraid for their lives.
Yang Ming, adjusting his glasses, silently stood in a corner watching the scene unfold, sighing inwardly.
Perhaps, this was also a blessing in disguise.
With family ties, the work at the Inspectorate was no longer suitable for them.
Since they couldn’t have it both ways, resigning at this moment might be for the best.
Even though he thought so, Yang Ming’s heart still felt uneasy.
