Chapter 124: Yang Qingyue is terrible
Since it meant all the upper echelons of this police station had been arrested, a power vacuum was suddenly created.
No one had any idea how to proceed onward and who to obey at this very moment. In accordance with the rules, Yang Qingyue\'s rank was the highest among everyone.
That was also the reason why they still hadn\'t disappeared even after the commotion had finished, waiting for what Yang Qingyue would say next.
Of course, Yang Qingyue was aware of the reason why she received so much attention. "Okay, fellas, do your own job. Until the higher-ups gave any further notice, I\'m temporarily in charge here."
Cai Ning watched her friend appease the crowd of officers to continue their responsibilities.
Perhaps, Yang Qingyue\'s character was well applauded or accepted by most of the police officers, or fear of attracting Yang Qingyue\'s attention, no one raised concerns or objection.
Yang Qingyue sent a message through her phone to the previous police commissioner she met, notifying she had finished her part.
Before she was about to announce today\'s briefing after she filled in the spot the senior officers disappeared, a female officer ran forward and handed an envelope.
Yang Qingyue already knew what was inside after sifting at the address of the sender. Nothing more than her promotion and authorization.
She tore it open and smiled, nodding her head, and requested the previous policewoman. "Please send the message to the commissioner—I understand his message and won\'t let the City N police station down."
The policewoman nodded and went out, preparing to reply the official statement. Yang Qingyue scanned the paper carefully before she transferred it to Cai Ning, who also meticulously read each word.
Yang Qingyue turned her head to the crowds who awaited her statements and said. "I have already received the message from our commissioner, praising our station for withholding justice firmly no matter who the perpetrator is and expecting our fellow officers to keep their will strong. Everyone can read the paper of what it said later."
"Now what I\'ll say is important. The commissioner and the mayor have authorized me as an acting police chief as of now. I\'ll be taking charge from now on. Any questions? Cool. We\'ll have a meeting later on."
Some members who were related to the previous apprehended senior officers or had curried favor to them, so that they would have an easier time in the force, were unhappy.
Their gloomy expressions told the tale. However, a majority of these proportion turned away their head whenever Yang Qingyue looked at them.
In fact, she understood what went inside their head. Using public pressure before to question her integrity for making such an arrest because the process appeared like a coup to the onlookers.
Driving away those in power and Yang Qingyue grabbing the missing power vacuum, they could press her through public pressure.
However, the order which came directly from the higher-up destroyed their plan. So, their guilty conscience heightened their fear of Yang Qingyue.
On top of that, everyone was aware that the senior officers Yang Qingyu arrested were associates of or related to the commissioner.
It was unwritten rules among the officers in the station that they had to tread carefully on the connections.
Yet, Yang Qingyue had them all arrested and the commissioner expressed gratitude, promoting her to a new rank.
They felt fear of Yang Qingyue for the first time, amazed at her resourcefulness and ruthlessness.
Forcing someone to applaud the perpetrator who harmed their family members was horrifying.
Anyone belonging to the senior faction was terrified of Yang Qingyue\'s moves. How did she accomplish such a feat? They didn\'t have the slightest idea.
If they really believed Yang Qingyue\'s deeds were due to her sense of justice and trust in the judicial system, they were most likely idiots.
They understood Yang Qingyue must have checkmated her opponents, giving them no other options except to accept the results.
For those, who worked honestly, they were elated to see this occur. Glad that reform was underway.
Some females among the police officers teared up, delighted that the suppressors had met his end, especially after hearing from Yang Qingyue personally admitting—that she would take control of the police station soon as police chief.
No one was really free from the previous police chief\'s and his associate\'s clutches. Sexual harassment was experienced by nearly everyone.
Most men in the station didn\'t know of the event, simply thinking this was impossible. In fact, these culprits committed without worrying about impunity.
Coercing the female members against their will through various means, these unscrupulous superiors had screwed several women repeatedly.
Until Yang Qingyue\'s arrival, these events reduced and the police work became normal. Back then, Yang Qingyue didn\'t understand the women\'s mindsets of not resisting and looked down on them.
Only after staying together for a long time, she experienced the life of ordinary people who struggled with daily expenses among her colleagues and their narratives of how the events happened.
After Yang Qingyue commanded some of her trusted team members to guard the detained rooms, she called the rest for another mission.
The onlookers discussed fiercely at the event and went quiet after hearing Yang Qingyue\'s outcry.
"Don\'t you have jobs to do?! Or do you like gossiping around? You can listen to my briefing but you must carry on your responsibilities after this."
Yang Qingyue continued speaking: "Now, we\'re gonna make another arrest. This time the criminals violated several women and likely participated in sex trafficking. They might also be related to the gangs."
Yang Qingyue took out the photos from the folder and spread them on the desk. "Here is the son of the previous police chief we arrested. He\'s the main suspect. And here…here."
Yang Qingyue explained the suspect\'s identities and Cai Ning filled up the remaining information.
The other officers couldn\'t close their mouths after seeing Yang Qingyue still preparing to arrest the son.
The policewomen shed tears of joy. Finally, retribution had arrived and justice would return to their side.
Yang Qingyue: "All the suspects are involved in rape and sex trafficking, possibly extending to drugs. We have clear evidence to arrest them. So, you\'ll divide into different groups to make an arrest. I permit the use of deadly force, including firearms, if you meet any resistance. Beware though, do not linger long in those areas.
Immediately retreat after taking control… Ladies and gentlemen, the mission is to snatch and grab. Surprise, speed, and aggression is the key here. Good Luck."
The officers who were preparing for the mission were stunned for a while when Yang Qingyue allowed them to carry firearms and even permitted them to open fire.
The team dispersed to make an arrest while Yang Qingyue summoned several departments for their vital help.
20 minutes later, the station resumed its duty in contrast to the previous dumbfounded stage. Yang Qingyue stood in the police control room, overseeing her subordinates\' arrest process.
She mobilized a quick reaction force, ready to move at a moment\'s notice, should the situation call for the decision. The entire station remained tense—one side worried about the arrest going on and the other side wondering whether they would be liquidated in the future.
