Chapter 471 - 220: The Power Behind the Scenes (Part 3)
One of the thugs still attempted to make a run for it.
But a police officer shouted something, and he immediately got scared and dropped to the ground.
Lang Shaobo explained at length in Japanese, and only then did a young officer with thick eyebrows press the radio to verify with the command center.
"Don’t worry, Mr. Gu, I’ve already explained the general situation to them. We’re pursuing these gang members with Officer Jingshang’s approval, and taking action against these thugs was also in self-defense."
As he spoke, he looked down at the henchmen Gu Ji had knocked to the ground and couldn’t help but exclaim excitedly: "Speaking of which, Mr. Gu, your skills are really impressive. So many people attacked you, and you still managed to take down three of them!"
"These bastards just crashed, none of them were thinking straight."
Gu Ji cursed.
Then, a white Mitsubishi off-road vehicle stopped at the crime scene, and as the door opened, Jingshang Gaoming flashed his credentials and hurried over with Gao Bo and Chen Zhiyu.
"Mr. Gu!"
"Gu Ji, are you all okay?"
Gao Bo, Chen Zhiyu, and the others saw the bodies on the ground and the overturned cars, their brows furrowing even more. But seeing Gu Ji standing safely, they finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Gu Ji, what happened? How did that professor die?"
The thugs on the ground wailing in pain were completely ignored by Shi Zhengmin. What worried him now was the fact that someone had died.
Gu Ji explained everything in detail. He initially planned to report the scene to Shi Zhengmin when Shajit died, but the radio had no signal once he got too far, so he had to use the phone.
At that moment, the thugs were about to flee, so he didn’t have time to find a phone and just gave chase.
Hearing that it had nothing to do with Gu Ji, Shi Zhengmin finally relaxed.
After all, they were currently investigating a case on someone else’s turf, and they needed to be cautious to avoid leaving any handle for others to grab onto.
As for the thugs Gu Ji had injured, they had pulled knives, posing a severe threat to the lives of Gu Ji and Lang Shaobo, allowing for unlimited self-defense.
It should be known that although Japan doesn’t ban guns, unlike the United States, its control over firearms and knives is extremely strict.
Designated violent groups are legal gangs, but if thugs bring guns and knives into public, it’s severely illegal. The leader of the Yamaguchi Group was previously arrested for carrying a firearm.
"Are you saying that before the professor died, he mentioned ’Liangben’?"
"Yes."
Zeng Dan muttered thoughtfully a few times and then turned to Jingshang Gaoming, "Officer Jingshang, we’d like to observe the Fusong Gang leaders and gang thugs’ interrogation tomorrow afternoon, is that possible?"
"Regarding that, I need to consult my superiors."
Jingshang Gaoming didn’t agree directly, instead, he deflected tactfully.
At that moment, a stretcher carrying an injured thug passed by him, and Jingshang Gaoming squinted, turning to Gu Ji with a slight smile, as if to say "Your skills aren’t bad."
"Mr. Gu, you and Mr. Lang are the main eyewitnesses in this kidnapping case. I’m afraid I’ll have to trouble you both to come back to the Police Headquarters to give a detailed statement."
"Alright."
Gu Ji nodded.
Once the scene investigation was complete, everyone followed the police car to the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.
On the way, he inquired with Gao Bo and Wu Kang about what happened at Tokyo Metropolitan University.
Upon mentioning this, Gao Bo couldn’t help but start cursing.
The main issue was being empty-handed in Japan, without even handcuffs. Even if they caught the gang thugs, they had no way to control them. If it weren’t for Jingshang Gaoming having a gun, they might not only have let those people get away, but they could have gotten beaten up.
"It’s really fucking frustrating!"
"Not much we can do on someone else’s turf."
Wu Kang also felt powerless.
Gu Ji remained calm. After a moment of thought, he suddenly said, "Zhang Zhong and Mr. Hao mentioned that we can’t carry firearms or controlled knives in Japan, but what about brass knuckles, batons, or pepper spray..."
