Chapter 230: Chapter 230-Good Guy, Complain?

Su Xuan was reported.

The reporters were none other than the family members of the victims.

“What are you police officers even doing?” one of them, a woman in a floral blouse with glasses, berated the policewoman at the front desk. “This scum is dead, he’s just an animal! Besides, what does his death have to do with my daughter? My daughter is the victim here! Your officers came to my house and harassed my daughter. Do you think my daughter killed him?”

A policewoman, sitting behind the desk, watched the woman who had suddenly rushed in and blocked their police station’s service counter in astonishment. It took her a while to respond.

“Ma’am,” she said calmly, “please calm down. If there’s anything you want to discuss, you can talk to me directly. If it’s an issue with our station’s officers…”

Before she could finish her sentence, the woman’s eyes widened, and she stared at the policewoman in shock.

“What’s this? If it’s not an issue with your station’s officers, then whose issue is it? If it’s not your station’s officers, why am I here? You’ve got to be kidding me! You police officers are always bullying people! Get that guy named Su Xuan out here for me!”

As she spoke, several other men and women around her joined in. They all demanded that the policewoman call Su Xuan.

“And that guy named Zhou Qiang too!”

“Can’t you even remember people’s names?”

“Get both of them out here! Who are these people, coming to my house and making my daughter say she was… she was…”

“You police officers are accomplices to these scumbags!”

“You…”

Several men and women argued with the policewoman, effectively surrounding the service counter.

The policewoman’s attempts to persuade them were in vain. She finally made a phone call to Su Xuan’s office.

As luck would have it, Su Xuan wasn’t in his office at the moment. Meanwhile, the agitated family members of the victims were nearing their breaking point. It looked as though they might dismantle the service counter.

The policewoman took a deep breath and decided to call her superior. However, her superior was also unavailable. She dialed the phone number of the deputy station chief, Lin Can.

“Hmm?” Lin Can answered the phone. “What did you say? Someone is complaining about Su Xuan? A large group of people came to complain directly?”

When Lin Can received the call, he almost thought his ears were playing tricks on him. It was rare for someone to complain about one of his subordinates.

“Yes, Deputy Chief Lin,” the policewoman said, relieved to have finally reached someone. She gestured towards the family members who were pounding the counter and inching closer. “They want to speak with Officer Su, but I called his office earlier, and he happened to be out on duty. What should I do now?”

The voice on the other end of the line sounded a bit distorted.

Lin Can raised his head and looked at Chief Old Mai, who happened to be in his office.

Old Mai nodded and said, “Escort them to the conference room. I’ll talk to them myself.”

This meant that Old Mai was ready to handle the situation personally.

Lin Can couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow and silently sympathized with Su Xuan. Whatever he had done, it had managed to escalate to Chief Old Mai’s attention. It seemed like Su Xuan was in for some trouble.

“What should you do…” Lin Can relayed the message to the policewoman on the phone, “Escort them to the third-floor conference room, and I’ll come over now.”

With someone ready to take charge, the policewoman nodded vigorously in the midst of the group of frustrated individuals. “Alright, Deputy Chief Lin! I’ll go right away!”

After Lin Can hung up the phone, Chief Old Mai wore a sinister smile on his face.

“Complaints?” he repeated the word, his voice laced with curiosity. “What has he done to trigger so many complaints?”

“Where is Su Xuan?” he asked. “What kind of duty is he on today?”

“Tell him to come to me right now,” Chief Old Mai ordered. “Let’s see if I should dock his pay!”

As he spoke, Chief Old Mai stood up and headed towards the door. Lin Can had just hung up the phone and looked up to see Chief Old Mai already on his way out.

He couldn’t help but twitch his mouth. Chief Old Mai was certainly ruthless in his words. If you’re so good at handling this, why don’t you stay out of it?

Instead of immediately following him, Lin Can first made a call to Su Xuan’s office. He needed to find out where Su Xuan had gone.

At this moment, Su Xuan was in the deceased’s home.

“His secret room was well hidden, so it’s understandable that you didn’t find it before,” Su Xuan remarked as he showed Zhou Qiang around. “These photos… most of them were taken when the girls were unconscious. It’s clear what kind of person this deceased was.”

“When we visited the places the girls had been before, did you notice their conditions?” Su Xuan asked.

With Su Xuan leading the way, Zhou Qiang followed him into the secret room of the deceased streamer. He watched in astonishment as Su Xuan located a half-meter-long cabinet door hidden within a wall, squeezed through it, and entered a room they had never seen before.

Hearing Su Xuan’s voice, Zhou Qiang looked up and was shocked.

“Whoa!” Zhou Qiang couldn’t help but curse loudly. “Su Xuan, this is… This guy is a real monster!”

Zhou Qiang felt a shiver down his spine. In this room, there were not only various explicit photos but also torn stockings and various tools… If Zhou Qiang didn’t have a strong mentality, he might have vomited on the spot.

“Ugh…” Well, he couldn’t hold it in.

Zhou Qiang turned and leaned against the wall, retching a couple of times.

On the side, Su Xuan cast a disgusted glance at him and then averted his gaze.

“Can’t you handle this better?” Su Xuan commented. “With your reaction, I could take on five of you single-handedly.”

Zhou Qiang:…

It wasn’t because of the disgusting items in the room; it was because of the depravity of human nature. How could someone’s wickedness reach such depths?

“In this situation…” Zhou Qiang sighed deeply. “Since I’ve seen it, I can’t pretend I haven’t. We have to report this.”

To this, Su Xuan sighed as well. “I think even if we don’t report it, the department probably already knows about it.”

Zhou Qiang raised an eyebrow. “What do you mean by that?”

“Don’t you think that after all our running around, the families of those girls won’t take any action?” Su Xuan explained. “I bet they’re on their way to our unit right now.”

“Keep an eye on the news,” Su Xuan advised. “If they call us back to the unit, it’s probably bad news.”

Zhou Qiang:… What the heck!

As it turned out, Su Xuan’s guess was correct. It didn’t take long before Su Xuan’s radio crackled with activity on the dedicated channel.

Following that, a furious voice, belonging to Old Mai, came through the radio.

“Su Xuan!”

“You punk, where are you right now?”

“Get your ass back to the unit immediately!”

Hearing the voice, Zhou Qiang instinctively raised an eyebrow, looking at Su Xuan inquisitively.

Su Xuan:…

After all the calculations, he didn’t expect that it would be him they’d come looking for first.

So, what could Su Xuan do?

“Yes, yes, yes…”

“We’re still investigating at the deceased’s residence, and we’ve uncovered significant information…”

Old Mai had already heard about the situation from the families, and now that Su Xuan confirmed it, he immediately shouted, “Get back to the unit right now!”

Su Xuan:…

“Alright!”

“Chief Mai, I’ll be back soon..”
