Chapter 539: Chapter 446 Please Come With Us_1
Upon hearing Tang Qing’s words.
Sai Yi came to a halt, his mind, like the surrounding onlookers, felt a bit perplexed. What did Tang Qing mean by his previous words? If taken literally, it means he (Sai Yi) must offer an explanation before he can leave here. This was clearly a questioning tone.
A young brat questioning him.
Could he accept that?
Clearly, he couldn’t.
He feared Hua Dongfang, but he wasn’t afraid of a young kid like Tang Qing. The call he received only mentioned three young people causing trouble, it didn’t say anything about Hua Dongfang, so he had assumed Hua Dongfang was just here as a bystander.
He had already shown some respect to Hua Dongfang, but the fact that this young man would not let it go was not his fault. He wasn’t someone to be taken lightly.
Sai Yi turned around.
He looked at Tang Qing, his face gloomy and said somewhat unpleasantly: "Young man, were you just talking to me?"
Tang Qing promptly admitted: "I was. Not only has this man been forcing sales several times, he’s even caused people from the tour group to waste a lot of money. Therefore, I think you owe me an explanation, otherwise, you can’t leave."
Hearing this, Sai Yi was seething.
Damn it, who the hell is the cop here? I didn’t even detain you and yet you dare hold me back. Hua Dongfang, it’s not that I won’t give you face, it’s just that this young man doesn’t want to give you any. Besides, forcing people to buy things actually increases local income, the higher-ups usually ignored such things. Why would they care about it anyway?
"It seems like you really want to visit the police station with me, alright, come with me. Once we’re at the station, I’ll explain it to you properly." Sai Yi said, staring menacingly at Tang Qing.
Do you think you can scare me with that look? Can you glare me to death?
Definitely not.
Tang Qing smirked.
Not at all intimidated.
"Police Inspector Sai Yi, I don’t want to go to the police station. It seems you’ve firmly chosen to stand by that tour guide. If that’s the case, we need to find someone else to deal with this." Tang Qing said lightly.
At least in a place like Bangkok, against clearly ’minor cameo’ role of the Thai police, how does it matter if he’s a little arrogant? If this was in a more developed era where smartphones were ubiquitous and anyone could record videos, he wouldn’t stir up trouble so recklessly. After all, ending up on the internet wasn’t a good thing.
Of course, with the team of robots constantly monitoring the entire internet in the command room, anyone wanting to upload photos of him, let alone videos, it would immediately be detected and destroyed.
"This is my jurisdiction, I’m the boss here." Sai Yi clearly got angry this time, get someone else? That’s quite a mouth you’ve got there.
Seeing all of this, even Tang Kai and Hua Dongfang were a bit confused. Saying Tang Qing wasn’t afraid of stirring up trouble was an understatement, this was no more just being unafraid, he was practically playing with fire. What did he mean by getting someone else to handle this? Hua Dongfang couldn’t make such a rash statement either.
Tang Kai just shook his head with a bitter smile. It seems he would have to use some of his connections to calm this situation, otherwise Tang Qing would not be able to manage it. But he didn’t blame Tang Qing, being the older one, he had spent his lifetime working hard to attain wealth and power. Wasn’t it all to provide a better life for his family and to uphold their dignity? Even bigger than that, it was to benefit the people and make a change in the world.
Though it was tricky, it wasn’t a big problem. Even without using his connections with Wangsa, he had his own contacts as well.
"Oh? You’re the boss, then what about your chief?" Tang Qing said, half-smiling. He already knew that the command room had taken some form of action.
"Hmph, stop playing with words, come with me." Sai Yi snorted coldly.
Saying this, Sai Yi took out another pair of handcuffs, intending to handcuff Tang Qing as well. How could he tolerate a Chinese man acting so arrogantly on Thai soil? Once at the station, no one would stand up for this Chinese man.
However, before he could take two steps, he suddenly felt as if two mountains were looming in front of him. Not in terms of size, but aura. The intimidating aura that overwhelmed him made him step back in fright.
He wore a surprised and puzzled expression on his face.
Upon a closer look, these two looked like bodyguards in suits and sunglasses, watching him vigilantly. Although he couldn’t see their eyes, their posture was clearly one of defense.
Could this young man have a significant background?
Sai Yi thought to himself.
These two were of course fighters, and they were the ones accompanying Tang Kai. When someone tried to handcuff their commander, the fighters naturally did not hesitate to step forward, standing in front of Tang Qing, waiting for his commands.
Upon seeing the two bodyguards who were originally behind him swiftly moving in front of Tang Qing, Tang Kai was surprised momentarily, but he soon regained his calm. After all, these bodyguards were also his friends of Tang Qing. Of course, they would help Tang Qing.
"What are you guys doing?! I’m a Thai police officer. Don’t obstruct me from arresting suspects!" Sai Yi questioned loudly, hoping to assert his lawful identity.
"When did I become a suspect?" Tang Qing laughed coldly.
Hearing this, before Sai Yi could come up with a reason to pin the blame on him, Tang Qing didn’t give him the chance to retort. Because he had noticed that the ones handling the aftermath were already here, he waved and said: "Police Inspector Sai Yi, until we meet again. I hope you watch out for yourself."
"Until we meet again? You can’t just..." Before Sai Yi could finish his sentence, two Thai police officers squeezed their way through the crowd and stood in front of him.
"Police Inspector Sai Yi, we’re from the Sub-bureau Police Inspection Department. You’re suspected of illegally receiving kickbacks. You have been suspended by orders from the sub-bureau. Please accompany us for an investigation." A man with a distinctively different uniform from typical Thai police officers said.
"I...you..."
Before he could finish, Sai Yi was escorted away by the two officers.
When it was over.
The two fighters also returned to be behind Tang Kai.
Another Thai police officer then quietly took the guide away. Tang Qing could perceive that he was a fighter.
Meanwhile, another Thai police officer announced loudly: "Alright, those in the tour group guided by this guide please gather here. We’ll immediately notify the travel agency to send a new guide. You all should be prepared to write an incident report. If this guide did indeed accept kickbacks, we’ll find a way to recover the money."
Two more Thai police officers entered the shop which was known to cheat tourists, looking like they were going to close it down for rectification. The shop was immediately thrown into chaos.
The incident had evolved to this point.
After a series of twists and turns.
The onlookers still hadn’t snapped back to reality, looking lost.
Is it really over?
Such a dramatic turn of events wasn’t expected.
This development is quite different from what they anticipated.
The crowd, with their ghost-like expressions, didn’t draw any attention.
"Uncle, let’s go. We’re lucky today. I didn’t expect this guy to get in trouble." Tang Qing told Tang Kai with a smile, very ’innocent’, quite different from the assertiveness he showed earlier.
"Ah, okay, .." Tang Kai, a bit surprised, looked at the sunny boy.
You didn’t expect it?
Lucky?
You think we’re deaf? We understand Thai. The words that Tang Qing spoke earlier weren’t unexpected. It was clear, Tang Qing knew it well in advance, or.. was it his arrangement?
Thinking of this, Tang Kai was filled with horror.
Soon afterwards, a puzzled Tang Kai and Tang Qing left the ’scene of controversy’, and no one stopped them.
As soon as Tang Qing left.
The spectators immediately stirred up discussions.
Pointing at Tang Qing’s group that only had their backs visible.
They only just realized that the person who even Sai Yi feared was actually with Tang Qing. No wonder, they could confirm that Tang Qing’s identity was not simple. A Chinese man in a foreign land, who managed to swiftly put a Thai police officer in jail, was absolutely extraordinary.
"Grandpa, what did that guy and the Thai police officer say just now?"
The old man, looking at Tang Qing’s departing silhouette, said: "He said, fend for yourself."
"Did he know this man would be arrested?"
"What do you think?" chuckled the old man.
The little girl covered her mouth, restraining her exclamation.
The onlookers could figure it out.
How could Tang Kai and Hua Dongfang not figure it out? But they didn’t question Tang Qing. Hua Dongfang thought it was Tang Kai’s effort and couldn’t help but see him in a new light. To be able to quickly connect with the Thai police, his network is impressive.
Tang Kai assumed it was Tang Qing’s friend who came to rescue, but he did not know what connections were used to have such power in Thailand, to instantly dismiss a Thai police officer..
Was it a coincidence?
Ha, there are not many coincidences in the world, someone must be operating behind the scenes.
Soon after, the owner of this shop hurriedly rushed over after hearing the news. He learned that his business had to be shut down for rectification, and was trying to use all his connections, but all in vain. No one dared to defy the law during these tense times.
The newly appointed deputy director of Bangkok City police station was quite tough. Through interrogating the more than a hundred people arrested, many big cases had been solved recently, involving many people.
Those who weren’t arrested were busy covering their tracks. Who had time for these trivial matters?
The travel agency also received a temporary business suspension notice. During the review period, it was prohibited from bringing any new tour groups to Thailand. As for the tour guide, he had become the ’scapegoat’ for the entire incident and can no longer work in the tourism sector in Thailand.
Elsewhere.
On their way back to Hua Dongfang’s shop.
"Old Tang, what did you say back there? I didn’t understand a word." Li Kai was still confused, not understanding what was said. He was initially worried, but then... nothing happened.
The situation was eerily strange.
Only Feng Sen looked at Tang Qing thoughtfully, as if he understood something.
Tang Qing explained with a smile, "Nothing much, I just told them that I wouldn’t bow to power. If they didn’t act impartially, I would complain. Then he got angry and wanted to arrest me. I was scared at that moment, fearing the worst, but I didn’t expect that he would dig his own grave and get caught by their internal affairs department."
Tang Qing was spewing nonsense, causing both Tang Kai and Hua Dongfang’s mouths to twitch.
Really good at lying.
Scared?
As if someone would believe that.
You definitely did it.
No doubt about it.
"Really?" Li Kai was still a bit skeptical.
"Of course, do I have any reason to lie to you?" Tang Qing said softly.
"Well... yeah." Li Kai nodded, he had no choice but to believe him.
"..."
