Chapter 404: How Did He Suddenly Turn Into a Big Tree?
Bang!
In the chaos, someone fired a shot that blew out the tire of the car on the other side.
The four robbers' vehicle instantly lost control and crashed into the glass window of a roadside shop.
"Ah..."
Pedestrians on the street screamed and ran away, especially across from the mall where a group of people who were originally doing promotional activities at the entrance all fled quickly into the mall in fear.
The four robbers got out of the van somewhat awkwardly.
They chose to support their injured companion while carrying the money box, abandoning the vehicle to escape.
After running for a distance, one of the robbers spotted a car parked by the roadside.
He tried to pull the door handle, and it surprisingly opened.
The most exciting thing was that the car was still in a running state.
Heaven is helping us!
This robber excitedly made a hand gesture.
The four immediately got in the car and sped away with a heavy press on the gas pedal.
Pang Longhai and the patrol officer quickly chased after them.
Chen Fan stood behind watching this scene, shaking his head.
What happens next was no longer something he could control.
Although his plan didn't deal with Song Mingjie, it at least reduced casualties.
In his previous life, the shootout at the business hall entrance had resulted in one patrol officer sacrificing his life, one civilian death, and several people seriously injured.
But now, only one patrol officer was injured, with no casualties.
Looking at it this way, his preparation wasn't completely useless.
At least he saved several lives.
Chen Fan glanced at the car the robbers had stolen up ahead.
By now it had started to sway unsteadily, sputtering to a stop.
The four robbers got out of the car in exasperation, directly raising their shotguns to fire at Pang Longhai and his companion who were catching up.
After suppressing the pursuit of the two, the robbers then dragged their injured comrade and turned to enter a nearby alley.
Chen Fan sighed with disappointment.
Originally, according to his plan, he was supposed to lure Song Mingjie into the alley, where the robbers would have just escaped to.
The two parties would meet unexpectedly, and in the chaos, the robbers would surely fire randomly.
Song Mingjie would have been doomed.
But that bastard didn't show up.
Chen Fan felt a wave of frustration.
"Oh no! Old Feng and the others!"
Chen Fan suddenly remembered that Old Feng and his team were still guarding at the intersection.
He had to warn them immediately.
Chen Fan turned and sprinted in the opposite direction.
While running, he took out his phone to call Feng Pojun.
After a mad dash, he finally arrived at the next intersection. Chen Fan, regardless of his panting, walked directly towards Feng Pojun's van.
"Haha, Chen Fan!"
Suddenly, a triumphant laugh came from behind.
Chen Fan was startled and turned to look back.
He saw Song Mingjie leading a group of his underlings, swaggering along the road towards him.
Song Mingjie pointed at Chen Fan with a smug expression.
"Hey, you little punk, are you scared and trying to run away?"
Just as he finished speaking, four men wearing black masks darted out from the alley nearby, rushing directly in front of Song Mingjie's group.
Chen Fan: "..."
Song Mingjie was also stunned for a moment, then seemed to realize something and sneered.
"Damn, I knew there was a trick!"
"You bastard said you wanted to meet me to beg for mercy and negotiate, but it was actually to lure me here for an ambush."
"Luckily I'm one step ahead and brought more men with me."
He didn't forget to cast a disdainful look at the four masked men in front of him.
"You brought just these four guys to try and ambush me? Naive."
"Trying to escape? Stop them!"
Song Mingjie waved his hand.
But in the next second, one of the robbers turned to look at him, simultaneously raising the shotgun in his hand.
Bang!
Accompanied by a puff of smoke.
Song Mingjie's entire body was almost turned into a sieve, falling to the ground immediately and spitting blood non-stop.
Chen Fan in the distance: "..."
"Ah... They're shooting!"
Song Mingjie's underlings were startled, instantly screaming and scattering in all directions.
At this moment, Pang Longhai and the patrol officer chased out from the alley.
They raised their guns and pulled the triggers.
One of the robbers was shot in the back and fell to the ground.
Seeing this, the other three immediately abandoned their companion and started to flee.
They were out of bullets!
Chen Fan suddenly reacted, quickly turning around and waving his hand at the van behind him.
"Quick! Catch them!"
Old Feng opened the van door and jumped out with a team of security guards.
The three robbers were dumbfounded.
They watched helplessly as a van full of "bread men" got out of the vehicle in front of them.
It's the plainclothes police!
Damn it!
Was the plan leaked from the very beginning?
Before they could complain, a group of burly security guards had already rushed over with punches and kicks, instantly pinning the three to the road.
...
Half an hour later, Chen Fan sat in the police station office, still feeling that everything was somewhat unreal.
Today's plot development didn't entirely follow his expectations. But the final result somehow matched up by chance.
One could only say that this Young Master Song's luck was really... a bit too miserable.
Bang.
The office door was pushed open, and Pang Longhai walked in with an excited expression.
"Chief Pang."
Chen Fan stood up.
"Sit! Sit!"
Pang Longhai could hardly hide the excitement on his face as he raised his hand to pat Chen Fan's shoulder.
"Didn't I tell you? There's no need to be so formal between us. Just call me Big Brother from now on."
"Big Brother Pang." Chen Fan immediately corrected himself.
"That's more like it."
Pang Longhai laughed heartily, looking at Chen Fan with an increasingly strange expression.
He suddenly realized that this kid Chen Fan was simply his lucky charm.
Ever since he met this kid, he had been on a straight path to success, with one achievement after another.
Just like today, he merely went to chat with him, but ended up accidentally picking up a huge merit.
A major bank robbery case.
And with firearms involved.
What a big case.
If this gets reported, it might not be long before the word "Deputy" could be directly removed from his title.
Promoted to full position in less than a year.
Goodness!
He wouldn't even dare to dream of it.
Pang Longhai's gaze towards Chen Fan became more and more satisfied.
In the future, he must maintain a good relationship with this kid, who might bring him even more surprises.
"Big Brother Pang, can you please not look at me like that."
Chen Fan felt a bit uncomfortable, "I'm not interested in men."
Pang Longhai laughed heartily, not taking offense.
"I was worried you might be left with psychological trauma, but now I see, you're not ordinary at all. You've just experienced a shootout, yet you're not scared at all."
Chen Fan immediately offered a flattering comment.
"What is there to be afraid of with Big Brother Pang around?"
"By the way, about today's incident... there won't be any repercussions, right?"
Pang Longhai knew what Chen Fan was concerned about and waved his hand with a laugh.
"Don't worry. Nothing's going to happen."
"Little Brother Chen, we've done a great service with this case today."
"Apart from that patrol officer suffering some minor injuries, there were no casualties at all. This was a major armed robbery case with four robbers, yet we managed to resolve it so easily."
The smile on Pang Longhai's face could no longer be contained.
"If we tell others about this, they probably won't believe it. Old Pang here finally has something to brag about for the rest of his life."
Chen Fan smiled and cupped his hands.
"Then I'll congratulate Big Brother Pang in advance. It seems this great achievement will surely bring you a commendation."
"Haha, let's celebrate together."
Chen Fan casually asked, "By the way, that Song Mingjie... how is he?"
"Him?" Pang Longhai's smile faded.
"Although he was rushed to the hospital in time, he was hit by a shotgun at close range, with multiple parts of his body badly damaged. I guess..."
Pang Longhai suddenly paused, took out his phone to look at a message he just received, then looked up at Chen Fan.
"I just got the news that Song Mingjie's life has been barely saved, but there's a high chance he'll become a vegetative person for the rest of his life."
Chen Fan was stunned, then shook his head with regret and sighed.
"Ah! Life is so unpredictable."
"How did a perfectly fine person suddenly turn into a big tree?"
