Chapter 29 Framing and Entrapment

  "Don't move, police!"

  In front of room 502 of the Chengdu South Gate Hotel, Li Mang was held at gunpoint by a machine gun, his muscles tense all over, but he didn't dare to move.

  Two more police officers appeared in his line of sight, bursting through the door and expertly grabbing his wrists from behind.

  "Wait!" Li Mang dodged nimbly and shouted for them to stop.

  "Halt! Don't move!" The armed policeman shouted loudly, his voice full of authority and severity, making people involuntarily obey his command. This was their usual trick, the loud shout could bring a shock to one's soul.

  "You have no right to arrest people at will! Where is your police ID? Where is the arrest warrant? I suspect you are thugs!" Li Meng shouted back.

  This is a tough nut... Several police officers couldn't help but think, but Li Meng's questioning was reasonable and they could only passively show their police ID, along with an arrest warrant. The procedure seemed to be in order. However, the content of this arrest warrant was quite ambiguous.

  "After investigation, it was found that Li Meng, a resident of room 502 at Chengdu Hotel, has exceptional personal strength and is likely to have injured others. It is highly possible that he is a member of a terrorist organization who has received special training..."

  "Hah!" Li Meng couldn't help but laugh at this, but then he looked at the several police officers with a mocking expression: "Officer, do you really think I'm some kind of ignorant country bumpkin? Alright, I did hit someone, but must you resort to using weapons? Not only are you pointing guns at me, but you're also fabricating some trumped-up charge against me? Who gave you the right to do this?"

  Several police officers looked at each other in dismay, they were just executing orders from above and didn't know the specific situation either.

  "Take him away and talk about it later!" A stern voice came from outside.

  "Sir, cooperate!" The two police officers said, grabbing Li Mang's arm again.

  "Wait!" Li Mang dodged and sidestepped, saying before they could get angry: "I'll go back with you, but don't lay a hand on me, or you'll definitely regret it!"

  "......Alright!" The people outside agreed.

  "I'm going to go get something!" Li Meng didn't care whether they allowed it or not, and directly returned to the room to retrieve his safe. This safe was configured by Yan Huang, identical to the one that followed the old general on his overseas visits, made of the same materials and structure, used to store important documents, ensuring that the two words "Yan Huang" would never appear before the eyes of the world.

  Unless you have control over the complex password and fingerprint, others will find it difficult to open it. The explosive device inside will explode instantly if forced to dismantle, blowing the data inside to smithereens.

  "Hold it!" A police officer stopped Li Mang's action, because this leather briefcase looked suspicious and similar to the boxes that stored explosive devices in science fiction movies.

  Several police officers in the room also tightened their nerves, especially the one holding the gun, whose finger was again placed on the trigger, ready to fire.

  "What? Afraid it's a bomb?" Li Mang sneered and laughed, opening the box with a few clicks, rummaging through its contents quickly before closing and locking it again.

  Inside were some documents, a satellite phone, and no gun or explosives as imagined. It turned out to be a false alarm, a group of police officers escorted Li Mang out of the hotel, and the motorcade rushed back to the police station with sirens blaring.

  "What's your name?"

  Li Meng

  "How old?"

  “22。”……

  The scene and the TV show are the same, Li Mang's information was quickly asked out, and the questions were very detailed. They didn't ask about the previous fight incident, but everything about Li Mang's identity information, it seems to be investigating the background.

  "Li Meng, a rural man from the south, his family is engaged in agriculture and has no special background. He graduated from Yanda University a year ago and worked for half a year at a state-owned enterprise in Yanjing as an office secretary. Later, he was dismissed due to disciplinary violations and there are no other records."

  "Yan University graduate? …… Where has he been for the past six months?"

  "After inquiring with him, he said that for half a year he has been working at a small enterprise in Yenching and the purpose of this trip to Chengdu is tourism."

  "Can it be verified?"

  "They have contacted the Beijing public security and confirmed that what he said is true."

  "Yan Da is nothing but a country bumpkin! ... Proceed with the next plan!"

  It is...

  In the detention house, Li Meng's face was gloomy as dead water. He wasn't a fledgling who had just entered society, so he could see that someone wanted to frame him. This was no longer a general case of bending the law for personal gain, but rather a deliberate attempt to set him up.

  "You're good, Wulong! After completing this task, I'll have to settle the score with you!" Li Mang was furious and amused at the same time. If he wasn't worried about alarming others, he could have just shown one of the documents in his suitcase and left, why bother with such humiliation.

  But that might disturb the Chen family, so Li Meng could only wait for Yan Huang's arranged rescue. Yang Fan also agreed with his idea and was arranging the ransom work. However, Li Meng didn't know that this time the Wu family wasn't just trying to deal with him, but wanted to kill him and silence him!

  "Crack!"

  The iron gate in front was suddenly opened, and two middle-aged police officers with square faces walked in, holding police batons, one of whom also wore gloves.

  "We suspect that there is invisible evidence of a crime hidden in this suitcase of yours. Please cooperate and let us inspect it!" one of them said seriously.

  "... Li Meng felt that something was off, and his heart grew a little more cautious, but on the surface he remained calm and said: "It's just an ordinary fight, you have no right to detain me!"

  "Is this what you call an ordinary fight? Five people, four with broken legs and one nearly crippled, all still lying in the hospital. Is this what you call an ordinary fight?" Another middle-aged policeman shouted loudly, his face stern with justice.

  Li Mang's eyes narrowed as he looked at them, his heart not calm. From their reaction, what they said seemed to be true. But Li Mang was clear about his own actions, it was impossible for him to break someone's bones, let alone cripple them, which meant that this was a thorough frame-up, and those few people's injuries were probably real too.

  Such a sinister and crazy setup, I'm afraid the other party's purpose is not simple, they want him to go to jail? This kind of behavior really chills people to the bone.

  "Let me reiterate, we suspect that there is incriminating evidence hidden in your luggage that cannot be seen by the human eye. Please produce it for us to inspect, otherwise we will take more stringent control measures against you!"

  "My lawyer is on his way here, let's talk after he arrives." Li Mang was too lazy to bother with them, anyway what he said now would be useless.

  Are you a lawyer? The two of them exchanged a glance, both with a look of urgency in their eyes. Then, they tacitly approached Li Meng and shouted: "You can't be so reckless here!"

  "What do you want to do? Interrogate me violently?" Li Mang glared at them with his eyes tightly shut.

  Li Meng's gaze made the two men's hearts tighten, but their movements didn't stop because of that. They reached out to grab the suitcase. Li Meng naturally wouldn't allow it and stood up to resist.

  Who would have thought that the policeman wearing gloves had an incredible reaction, suddenly pulling out a handgun and shoving it into Li Meng's hand, and then using the muzzle to point at his own shoulder and pull the trigger - "Bang!"

  "Ah!" This wasn't a fake gun. The middle-aged man let out a miserable cry and crouched down on the ground, covering his wound with his hand. His palm was instantly filled with blood.

  "Attack the police!" Another policeman was shocked and quickly pulled out his own pistol to shoot Li Meng.

  Li Meng had been cautious from the start, but he really hadn't expected the other side to play so big. As he saw the policeman pull out his gun, his instincts kicked in and he aimed his own gun at the opponent, pulling the trigger - "Bang!"

  However, this time it was not the shoulder but the chest. The middle-aged policeman may have never thought that Li Meng's reaction would be so agile. He spat out blood from the corner of his mouth and fell to the ground, dying on the spot!

  The policeman who was hit on the shoulder may not have expected things to develop in this direction either. Fear made him retreat while shouting loudly: "Murder! Murder!"
