Chapter 215 The Brothel Girl
Qi Tongwei saw Wu Dali clutching his head and his hands covered in blood, and asked with concern:
"Wu Dali, what happened? Are you alright?"
"It's alright, Qi Zhi, that bastard's like a mad dog."
Wu Dali was very unhappy. If it weren't for his status as a police officer, he would have given the troublemakers a good beating.
This arrogant troublemaker is Kang Haitao, the son of Kang Yaozong, the founder of Kangyao Company. Kang Yaozong was among the first to take the plunge after China's reform and opening up, starting his business through speculation and profiteering. He did whatever made money, truly embodying the saying "It doesn't matter whether a cat is black or white, as long as it catches mice." Now he is quite wealthy.
Kang Haitao had been a troublemaker since childhood, and after his family became rich, he became even more arrogant and domineering.
A head injury is no small matter. Qi Tongwei wasn't a harsh person who would force someone to die for their country. "Go to the hospital to get it treated first."
"Qi Zhi, I'm really alright. Look, the bleeding has stopped."
"Stop talking nonsense, there's no need for you here."
Qi Tongwei retorted directly, and Wu Dali felt a chill in his heart. "Brother, you don't need me anymore?" He could only obediently go to the nearby hospital to treat his wound.
"Let me go, you fucking deaf can't you hear me?"
Kang Haitao was indignant. When had he ever suffered such humiliation? Besides, he hadn't broken the law. What was wrong with not cooperating with the police? He was having a great time with the prostitute, so why was she taken away? This was such a slap in the face and a spoilsport.
"What are you all standing there for? Grab this bastard and take him back for a proper interrogation."
Qi Tongwei was furious. "Damn it, he thinks he's all that after drinking some horse piss."
"My dad is Kang Yaozong! What right do you have to arrest me? I want to see your bureau chief! I want to see your bureau chief!"
Kang Haitao shouted and yelled all the way, and two policemen dragged him away. What is Kang Yaozong? We can mobilize our living devil, the armed police.
This little incident made Lu Jin realize that this young policeman seemed to have some connections, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to arrest Young Master Kang so easily.
In Tianhe City's business circles, apart from Chen Wenxiong from Chenjiazhai, everyone else respectfully addresses Kang Yaozong as "General Manager Kang."
Suddenly, one after another, the nightclub girls came down from the second floor, like a fashion show. Each of them was tall and slender, striking seductive poses. Their long legs in black stockings made even the heroic police officer a little confused, and the old cadre couldn't withstand such a test.
There were over a hundred girls at the nightclub, standing there in rows, a veritable feast for the eyes. Lan Ying couldn't help but wonder if Qi Tongwei wanted to see them and had done it on purpose. Even regular customers wouldn't see so many girls at once.
The security guards and thugs present were dumbfounded. The police officer really knew how to have fun. They also got to feast their eyes on the show.
Those customers who fled in panic must be regretting it now. They should have stayed to look at the beauties and just told them their numbers next time.
The most wronged was Wu Dali; his head was split open, and he didn't even get to see the beautiful woman—a lifelong regret.
Qi Tongwei raised his pistol and chambered a bullet. This dangerous action terrified the girls, who screamed and trembled in fear.
The security guards and thugs present all unconsciously backed away.
The police were also incredulous. Was the living devil about to put on another show?
Lu Jin was glad he had listened to Yu Haichao's words earlier; it seemed this young policeman was really willing to fire a gun.
Qi Tongwei walked up to the women, holding a gun in his hand, which was quite intimidating.
"Ladies, don't be nervous or afraid. I'm not here to make things difficult for you. Bai Jie was your colleague, and she has now tragically died. As a police officer, I must find out the truth and bring justice to the victim."
"Our Chinese nation values respect for the deceased. Regardless of any past conflicts you ladies may have had with Bai Jie, she is gone now. I hope you will cooperate fully with the police and tell them everything you know so that the murderer can be caught as soon as possible."
"I'm sure you won't have peace of mind until the murderer is caught. Maybe the murderer is targeting pretty girls like you. You earn your money through hard work, and it would be such a tragedy if you were cheated out of your money and your virtue by a heartless scumbag and ended up like Bai Jie."
"Think about it carefully, am I right?"
This immediately caused a stir. Qi Tongwei's words resonated with the women, especially his repeated use of "pretty girl," which made them feel respected. They all wanted to sleep with him for free; the more they looked at this handsome policeman, the more they liked him.
The single policeman looked at Qi Tongwei as if he were a relationship guru. "If I had his eloquence, I wouldn't have to worry about finding a girlfriend."
Manager Dong wanted to give Qi Tongwei a thumbs up. If this kid were to work in the nightclub industry, he wouldn't stand a chance. He could easily trick any beautiful woman from all over the country into working at the nightclub and making money for him.
Lu Jin was somewhat dazed. He was sure this was the young policeman who had just hit him. Damn it, he was just a pimp. Pah, shameless.
If Lan Ying hadn't heard Qi Tongwei say that he had a very beautiful girlfriend, she would have thought that Qi Tongwei was a playboy who changed girlfriends every day.
Seeing that the young ladies had finished their discussion, Qi Tongwei raised his hand to quiet them down.
"Ladies, please cooperate with my colleague for a moment. I hope that Bai Jie's best friend will step forward."
The girls looked at each other, unsure of who would dare to step forward at this moment, or even consider leaving the business.
Unexpectedly, a young woman raised her hand and stepped forward. "Officer, my name is Hua Mudan, and I'm Bai Jie's best friend."
Hua Mudan is very beautiful and has the best popularity in the nightclub. Despite being in the world of prostitution, she still maintains her innocence.
She lost her mother at the age of three and her father at the age of five. She was raised by her grandparents. Every time she went home, she saw that her grandparents worked hard in the fields all year round and lived a very hard and tiring life. They could not eat meat even once a month. So she voluntarily became a prostitute.
Her goal in earning money was to ensure her grandparents could have meat at every meal, but unfortunately, they weren't blessed with that; they both passed away after only a year of enjoying such a good life.
The passing of her grandparents did not defeat her. From then on, she decided to live for herself and enjoy every day. Although those men were ugly, their money was sweet; they could afford to let her live in a big house and buy beautiful clothes.
Qi Tongwei didn't judge people based on prejudice. Everyone has their own way of living, as long as it's not murder or arson, and there's a basic moral standard. "Thank you for your cooperation. Please come with me outside for a moment."
"Yes, officer."
Hua Mudan followed Qi Tongwei out of the nightclub, and the girls were all extremely envious. Being so close to the water tower meant getting the moon first; they could even get such a handsome policeman for free.
Lu Jin glared at Hua Mudan fiercely, warning her not to talk nonsense.
Hua Mudan was not afraid. Death held no fear for her. She had witnessed both the splendor and ugliness of the world and had come to terms with it.
Lan Ying was taking a statement while Qi Tongwei was conducting the questioning. The ladies in the lobby were all cooperative and had a proper attitude. As for whether they were telling the truth, who knows?
Hua Mudan felt a pang of sadness thinking of Bai Jie, who was somewhat foolish and simple-minded. She asked, "Officer, do you have a cigarette?"
