RNP Chapter 85 The Butcher in the Rainy Night
Chapter 85 The Butcher in the Rainy Night
"Don't go too far, a month in the hospital is enough."
"Also, remember to bring some people to crack down on the taxi drivers in Wan Chai during this period."
"We need to let them know that customers are king, and they make a living off us."
After saying these words, Chen Yuan hung up the phone and left the lobby.
As soon as they stepped out of the hall, they saw Huang Bingyao and two men with furrowed brows, as if they were deep in thought.
"What's wrong?"
Chen Yuan asked curiously, glancing at the entrance of the police station as he did so.
"Huh? They've all left?"
Upon hearing the sound, Huang Bingyao turned around abruptly and stared at Chen Yuan's face for two seconds.
"Ah Yuan, come with me to the office."
"You two come along too."
......
Huang Bingyao's office.
Huang Bingyao sat behind his desk, tapping his fingers on the surface.
"Anyway, they've all left."
His tone turned serious as he looked at the two car dealership owners who were standing obediently.
"Do you know why they were arrested?"
The owners of Jinhui Auto Dealership and Zhida Auto Dealership exchanged a glance and shook their heads in unison.
"I don't know, Inspector Wong."
"Not sure?"
Huang Bingyao snorted coldly and looked at Chen Yuan:
"Ah Yuan, you speak."
"One of them is the owner of Jinhui Auto Dealership, and the other is the owner of Zhida Auto Dealership."
Chen Yuan responded and recounted the general outline of the matter, adding a final note.
"Two of the three of them are Jin Hui's drivers, and one is Zhi Da's driver."
The owners of Jinhui Auto Dealership and Zhida Auto Dealership turned pale instantly.
These scoundrels have done this kind of thing all the time, but unfortunately they ran into the police today.
Before they could figure out how to defend themselves, Huang Bingyao slammed his hand on the table with a loud "bang".
"These three people can't escape the charge of extortion; it's just a matter of how many years they'll be sentenced to."
"besides!"
He raised his voice.
"You all better control your own people!"
"If something like this happens again, you're not allowed to fish in Wan Chai!"
"I don't want to hear any more stories of people being ripped off by taxi drivers in Wan Chai, understand?!"
The two car dealership owners immediately pledged their determination and promised to keep their drivers in check when they got back.
Huang Bingyao's expression softened slightly, and he waved for the two to leave.
The two felt as if they had been granted a pardon and quickly retreated.
......
They went downstairs together and arrived at the parking lot.
Before getting into the car, the owner of Jinhui Auto Dealership suddenly said something.
"Old Chen, remember to keep a close eye on your driver, or he'll hold you responsible."
"You're the one who should tell them to keep a low profile in the future. They need to be selective about who they're trying to make money from."
"Damn, they're just unlucky."
He pursed his lips.
"Will they really hold a reorganization meeting after they get back?"
"Open it."
"Um?"
The owner of Zhida Auto Shop shrugged.
"Of course we'll open it; we have to give them face."
"but..."
The two exchanged a glance and simultaneously revealed a knowing smile.
The reason we turn a blind eye to this behavior is because the car dealerships also benefit from it!
The two exchanged a few more words, then got into the car and left.
Clearly, none of them took Huang Bingyao's words to heart.
......
The office fell silent again.
Huang Bingyao stood up, walked over to Chen Yuan, crossed his arms, and looked him up and down with a probing look in his eyes.
"Did you do that just now?"
"what?"
Chen Yuan pretended to be stupid.
"Uncle, what are you saying?"
Huang Bingyao: (¬_¬)
He pointed at Chen Yuan twice, his face clearly saying, "You little brat, are you still pretending with me?"
"You little rascal, you've kept it from even your uncle, haven't you?"
"Uncle, I really don't know what you're talking about."
Chen Yuan continued to play dumb, sticking to his guns and refusing to admit anything.
Huang Bingyao: "..."
"Do whatever you want, just don't kill anyone, and don't go too far."
To be honest, his dissatisfaction with the taxi driver had reached its peak today.
Huang Bingyao did not continue on this topic, but instead turned to the case.
"The Butcher has committed another crime on rainy nights recently. If you have some free time, go and help out with this case."
He looked worried when he talked about the case.
The case initially occurred in the Sha Tin district, and Wong Ping-yiu was unaware of it at first.
Three months later, a citizen discovered shocking human remains on a hillside near Tai Hang Tau.
Next came the third body fragment.
Goodness, because the methods of committing the crimes were the same, they were connected all at once.
The case turned into a series of murders, and the killer was dubbed the "Rainy Night Butcher" by Hong Kong media because he liked to commit the crimes on rainy days and had a perverse method of killing.
That period coincided with Chen Yuan's studies at the police academy, so Huang Bingyao didn't mention it.
He figured that besides Chen Yuan, there were other capable officers in the Wan Chai Police Station, and the case would surely be solved quickly.
But after this investigation, there was no news for several months.
As a result, the Hong Kong Island media launched a barrage of criticism against the Wan Chai Police Station, and the Hong Kong Island Regional Crime Unit took over the case directly.
Huang Bingyao lost face during that period, until Chen Yuan cracked Johnny Wang's arms case and regained some ground.
Then, last night, the Butcher committed another crime in the rainy night, and this time it happened in the same big tunnel on the hillside!
This was intolerable, so Huang Bingyao decided to ask his nephew to take action!
"The Butcher of the Rainy Night?!"
Chen Yuan asked in surprise.
He had some knowledge of this famous case on Hong Kong Island, but not much.
"Who is handling this case now?"
"Hong Kong Island Regional Crime Unit".
Chen Yuan: "..."
"I see."
......
As Chen Yuan left Huang Bingyao's office and went down to the first floor, he was greeted by Zhou Xingxing and Cao Dahua.
Stephen Chow had a smug look on his face.
"Inspector Chen, that guy has admitted defeat!"
"very good."
Zhou Xingxing pressed for an answer.
"What's our next step?"
"Once the evidence is gathered, submit it to the Department of Justice and sue them for extortion."
"Is there anything else?"
"That's it, the case is closed."
Chen Yuan suddenly thought of something.
"Oh, right..."
Stephen Chow immediately became excited and straightened his back.
"Sir Chen, please speak!"
Chen Yuan gave him a strange look.
"Let the driver who was extorted go back. Remember to tell him that the 5000 yuan is for evidence and he can come back to collect it in a while."
"...Yes, sir..."
Chen Yuan looked completely bewildered, turned around and left to call Crow.
Cao Dahua asked in confusion.
"What's wrong with you? Why did you suddenly become weak?"
No, that's not it.
Zhou Xingxing said weakly.
"I'm very energetic."
"Still saying you don't?"
"Why is Inspector Chan taking on such a small case?!"
Stephen Chow finally told the truth, and said with tears in his eyes.
"I thought that if Inspector Chan took action, it must be the prelude to some earth-shattering case..."
"It really turned out to be three taxi drivers extorting money from you!"
"My passion, my gunfights, my high-speed car chases... all gone!"
......
"Thank you, officer."
Meanwhile, driver Ah Kin received the notification, thanked Stephen Chow and Tsao Tat-wah profusely, and walked out of the Wan Chai Police Station.
Standing by the roadside, watching the red taxis coming and going, he felt a chill, but eventually walked towards the bus stop.
After a long and winding journey home, the moment Ah Jian opened the door, he saw his heavily pregnant wife sitting on the sofa, looking at him with an unhappy expression.
"Honey, you said you'd come home early."
"Wife."
He looked terrified.
"You wouldn't believe it, but so much happened to me today!"
