903: Chapter 896: Your Son’s Life or Death Is Worthless 903: Chapter 896: Your Son’s Life or Death Is Worthless After learning that Zhu Maode, the top official of the Tianhai police, was murdered, the authorities immediately promoted Jiang Mingchuan, who had been the second in command of the Tianhai police, to Zhu Maode’s position two days ago.
Over the past two days, the forty-two-year-old Jiang Mingchuan was indeed on cloud nine.
However, just five minutes ago, all of Jiang Mingchuan’s joy vanished.
His office phone had nearly exploded with calls in those five minutes, all concerning the terrorist incident at the Tianhui Grand Hotel.
After all, Jiang Yingtian and his wife had invited many of Tianhai’s high society to their sixtieth birthday celebration.
Once these high society individuals sent out messages, their relatives and friends immediately sprang into action.
After fully grasping the situation, Jiang Mingchuan was sweating profusely.
He knew that if he didn’t handle this incident properly, he might quickly be removed from his new post as the top official of the Tianhai police by his superiors, and his future might well be ruined.
Jiang Mingchuan couldn’t help but feel he had the worst luck—barely having taken over the top police role in Tianhai when such a significant terrorist incident occurred.
Of course, Jiang Mingchuan didn’t hesitate to deploy most of Tianhai’s police force, who rushed to the Tianhui Grand Hotel, attempting to resolve the terrorist incident perfectly in the shortest time possible.
While Jiang Mingchuan was deploying the police officers, Shi Xiangyang’s father, Shi Changshan, received a text message from his son.
Originally, Shi Changshan and his wife, Zhong Yuhong, were about to arrive at the Tianhui Grand Hotel.
Upon receiving the message from his son, Shi Changshan, the second in command of the Tianhai military, did not panic but instead called Jiang Mingchuan’s number.
After confirming that everything his son said was true, Shi Changshan’s face showed a look of anger.
At the same time, when Jiang Mingchuan, the top official of the Tianhai police, and Shi Changshan, the second in command of the Tianhai military, learned about the incident at the Tianhui Grand Hotel, Su Ansheng, the top military official in Tianhai and a member of the Ye family faction from Capital City, was still unaware of what had happened at the Tianhui Grand Hotel.
Su Ansheng was a middle-aged man around forty-five or forty-six, currently sitting in his office, holding a newspaper, with a cup of hot tea on his desk.
He was sipping his tea while reading the newspaper.
“Dinglingling!
Dinglingling!”
The ring of the telephone on the desk broke the silence of the office.
Su Ansheng frowned involuntarily, but as soon as he saw the number displayed on the phone, he quickly dropped the newspaper, cleared his throat, and picked up the call, respectfully saying, “Leader, have you called to give me instructions?”
The call was from Ye Zhenhong in Capital City.
Ye Zhenhong and elder officials like Yu Fengnian were always keeping a close watch on Tianhai’s every move.
After the terrorist incident in the Tianhui Grand Hotel, these seniors learned about it immediately, so they were eager to help Ye Chenfeng as much as they could.
“Ansheng, a terrorist incident occurred at the Tianhui Grand Hotel in Tianhai.
Right now, all the people in the hotel are being held hostage, including my grandson, Ye Chenfeng.
Deploy the military immediately and ensure my grandson’s safety,” said Elder Ye straightforwardly.
However, just as Su Ansheng was about to respond, Yu Fengnian’s voice came through the phone, “Su Ansheng, this is Yu Fengnian.
You must ensure the safety of the Ye family boy.
We can credit you with a significant merit.
If you can’t ensure the Ye family boy’s safety, I think you know what the consequences will be.”
As Yu Fengnian’s voice fell, Wu Anguo’s voice followed through the phone, “Su Ansheng, this is Wu Anguo.
No matter what method you use, you must protect Chenfeng’s safety.
We old men will all be grateful to you.”
…
Anyway, the various higher-ups in Capital City all made their earnest instructions to Su Ansheng over the phone.
Ultimately, Su Ansheng didn’t even remember how he hung up, but he did remember who Ye Chenfeng was.
He had the fortune of attending a special forces exchange in Capital City, where he had seen Ye Chenfeng beat the special forces of the Island Nation like a dead dog.
He held a great deal of admiration for the young Ye Chen.
A terrorist incident at the Tianhui Grand Hotel in Tianhai?
Ye Chenfeng was also caught up in it?
And various high-level officials from Capital City were insisting that he ensure Ye Chenfeng’s safety?
This placed Su Ansheng under immense pressure all at once.
From the tones of the various officials, Su Ansheng could discern the implications—should he manage to guarantee Ye Chenfeng’s safety, he would be credited with a great accomplishment; on the other hand, if he failed to ensure Ye Chenfeng’s safety, he might even lose his current position as the head of the Tianhai military department.
So, after grasping the whole situation, Su Ansheng immediately dispatched a military force under his command and personally led them to the Tianhui Grand Hotel in a hurry.
As Su Ansheng led his troops towards the Tianhui Grand Hotel, the entire building was already heavily surrounded by police.
Jiang Mingchuan, the head of Tianhai’s police, and Shi Changshan, the second-in-command at the Tianhai military department, furrowed their brows as they looked at the two young men standing at the entrance of the Tianhui Grand Hotel.
These two youths were subordinates of Xue Ying.
Facing the police, they showed no sign of panic at all.
With their level-ten peak Soul Force, they had no reason to fear these officers.
One of the youths, a muscular figure named Lin Ao, and the other, a more slender one called Hua Tian, showed a contemptuous smile.
Lin Ao spoke loudly, “I told you not to make any rash moves, and yet you still sent people trying to enter from the back door of the hotel, which is simply courting death.”
Lin Ao and Hua Tian fully unleashed their Soul Force, allowing them to clearly perceive everything happening at the hotel’s back door.
Lin Ao walked towards the officers and continued, “It seems that without a proper lesson, you won’t calm down.”
“Fire, fire at will!” commanded Jiang Mingchuan as he saw Lin Ao step out of the hotel.
Upon hearing Jiang Mingchuan’s orders, the police officers didn’t hesitate to pull their triggers.
A volley of gunfire, “bang bang bang bang bang,” rang out continuously as bullets sped towards Lin Ao.
However, all the bullets stopped mid-air a meter away from him—an eerie sight that momentarily made the officers forget to continue firing.
But just then, the bullets suspended in mid-air reversed direction and flew back towards the officers.
In an instant, the area outside the hotel was filled with screams; many officers were hit by the bullets, and some even died on the spot.
Jiang Mingchuan, Shi Changshan, and Zhong Yuhong, Shi Changshan’s wife, also appeared quite disheveled as they were standing at the back.
Fortunately, they ducked behind a vehicle at the critical moment, otherwise, they too might have been hit by the bullets.
“This was just a small lesson.
Now just stay put like good boys,” said Lin Ao leisurely as he walked back to the entrance of the Tianhui Grand Hotel.
Right at that moment, a line of military trucks steadied to a stop not far from the Tianhui Grand Hotel.
Soldiers carrying heavy firepower descended from the trucks, and Su Ansheng, the head of Tianhai’s military department, also stepped down from a military jeep.
Seeing Su Ansheng, Shi Changshan immediately approached him and said, “Ansheng, my son is trapped inside the hotel.
We must quickly find a way to save him!”
Su Ansheng glanced at the agitated Shi Changshan.
His mood was already sour and he retorted sharply, “Shi Changshan, what the hell is the life or death of your son!
Just now, all the old masters from Capital City reminded me that Elder Ye’s grandson is also inside the Tianhui Grand Hotel.
If we can’t ensure the safety of Young Master Ye this time, we might as well prepare to strip off our uniforms and go home to farm!”
