Chapter 1620 – So, this is the God of Plagues
“Oh my god! Tow the police cars? You’re going to tow police cars?!”
Upon hearing this, everyone was stunned, completely shocked by Dong Xuebing’s words. Law enforcement officers remained silent, as did the two traffic police officers and the five or six policemen. Even the ordinary people hadn’t quite processed it and thought Dong Xuebing was joking.
But Dong Xuebing seemed calm and very serious. “Generally speaking, congestion caused by law enforcement vehicles during tasks is unavoidable and needs to be understood by society and the public. However, from what I just witnessed, I don’t believe these three police cars were on duty. They were chatting and laughing with the lawbreakers and repeatedly siding with them. This process cannot be recognized as law enforcement. As you can see, the road is congested now, and it became worse when the police cars arrived. Their inaction has had an extremely negative impact on traffic conditions, exacerbating the situation. So, these vehicles cannot avoid punishment just because they are police cars, nor do they have any privileges. Before the law, everyone was equal; even primary school students knew this principle. They caused the roadblock and naturally need to bear the corresponding punishment to ensure the law’s fairness, justice, and transparency.”
A young policeman was furious, “What do you mean by that!”
An old traffic policeman also exclaimed angrily, “Ridiculous! We came here to help solve the problem! And you want to tow our cars? Who are you? You can tow cars just because you say so?”
Dong Xuebing smiled, “But I didn’t see any intention from you to solve the problem from start to finish. You’ve been helping the lawbreakers all along. As for who I am, I’m just an ordinary citizen, a resident here, a commoner whose interests have been harmed. Do I not have the right to make suggestions?”
The people from the City Traffic Management Bureau whispered to each other.
“This…”
“What should we do?”
“Captain Liu? What do you think?”
The leading law enforcement officer was also somewhat speechless. He had been enforcing the law for many years and had never towed a police car. But remembering the director’s repeated emphasis and severe expression, he gritted his teeth slightly. Damn it, do as he pleases. He shouted, “Tow them!”
“Huh?” A young law enforcement officer was stunned.
Captain Liu repeated in a stern voice, “Tow them all!”
“Uh, yes!” The comrades from the City Traffic Management Bureau started to act.
The traffic police and police officers from the western district were furious. Their faces changed utterly. It would be understandable if the cars of several traffic management cadres from their area were towed. After all, these cars didn’t have police license plates and were parked illegally. But their police cars were different. They were official police vehicles, and they were here on legitimate duty. If their cars were towed, it wouldn’t just be embarrassing but humiliating. This was not just losing face; it was a severe blow. Moreover, it was an excessive blow. It was like slapping them and the face of their district’s police system repeatedly with the soles of shoes!
Police cars being towed away? They had never heard of such a thing! If this got out, they would undoubtedly become the laughingstock of the system, indeed infamous—the kind of fame nobody wanted! It was too embarrassing!
Several policemen exploded with anger.
“Who dares to!”
“Are you lawless now?”
“Are you going to tow our cars? What are you up to!”
“You are bullying us!”
These words were initially said by the alley’s residents to those policemen when they were about to apprehend ordinary citizens. However, just over ten minutes later, these words unexpectedly came out of their mouths. The change in the situation was swift!
A conflict broke out between the police and the City Traffic Management Bureau.
Although they didn’t resort to violence, both sides crowded together tightly!
Dong Xuebing was the first to step forward leisurely. His body blocked the path of several policemen. “Don’t obstruct law enforcement. If you have any issues, report them to your superiors. Otherwise, pay the fine tomorrow and reclaim your cars. Don’t come here with this nonsense. Don’t think everyone has to obey your orders just because you’re from Public Security. Are you human beings while others are not? Cut the crap! Your sense of superiority needs to be toned down. You came here not to enforce the law but to help lawbreakers oppress ordinary people. You must bear the consequences of your actions. I’m telling you clearly that this matter is not over. I’ve just taken photos of your police numbers and the license plates of these Audi cars. Remember my words; this matter is far from over. We will settle each aspect of this incident!”
The residents cheered upon hearing this!
“Good!”
“So satisfying!”
“That’s the way to do it!”
“Yes! Tow their cars! Damn it!”
The old neighbors rushed up together, surrounding the policemen, fearing they might get away with their cars.
Click!
Hooked!
As the towing started, the traffic police car was pulled away!
The two traffic police officers in the crowd were almost livid. They tried to rush out, but there were too many residents, and they couldn’t move!
Soon after, a police car was also towed away. It was parked with the handbrake on and suffered the same fate as the Audi. Its tires scraped against the ground, making an ear-piercing noise. It wasn’t as robust as the Audi; it would probably be ruined when it reached its destination!
The police inside were furious, shouting!
“How dare you!”
“Let go of it!”
“Who gave you the right to tow our cars!”
But the towing didn’t stop, and soon, the last police car was lifted in front of several policemen and taken away boldly!
The three Audi drivers were also shocked. They hadn’t expected the other party to act so ruthlessly. This was a severe confrontation. Where did this young man get his confidence from? He even dared to tow police cars?
Many pedestrians and vehicles on the street stopped to stare in astonishment. They were all dumbfounded! Towing police cars? They had never seen such a thing before!
But, this was the God of Plagues!
This was the God of Plagues’ usual style!
