Chapter 171 Dismount
Chapter 171 Dismount
That evening, Li Mu and Da Zhuang proceeded as planned, parking their car in the alley behind the municipal canteen.
The two quietly went to the back of the cafeteria, hid behind a big tree, and quietly observed the movements.
A short while later, a small truck pulled up and stopped at the back door of the cafeteria. Several people got out of the truck and walked furtively toward the back door.
Li Mu gave Da Zhuang a wink, and the two of them quietly followed.
The group of people arrived at the back door of the cafeteria, looked around, and then began moving things.
When Li Mu and Da Zhuang saw this, they were immediately furious. These guys really were here to steal the goods!
They approached stealthily, and when those guys had almost finished moving the things, suddenly, Li Mu shouted, "Stop!"
Upon hearing this, the men were startled and turned around to see Li Mu and Da Zhuang standing behind them, glaring angrily.
They panicked immediately, and one of the leaders said, "Who are you? Why are you meddling in other people's business?"
"Who am I? Just ask Chef Sun!"
Upon hearing this, the leader's expression immediately changed. He quickly took out his phone, intending to call Chef Sun to warn him.
Li Mu reacted quickly, snatched the phone from him, and smashed it to the ground, shattering it into pieces.
The leader immediately panicked upon seeing this: "You...you dare to smash my phone!"
Li Mu grabbed his collar and said fiercely, "So what if I smashed your phone? You think you're in the right for stealing? Today, I'm going to teach you a lesson!"
After saying that, Li Mu threw a punch, and the man's nose immediately bled profusely.
The others were terrified when they saw this and tried to run away.
Da Zhuang saw this and quickly stopped them: "Trying to run? Not so easy!"
After saying that, he started hitting and kicking, yelling, "Fuck your mother! You stole our goods! You bastards, we're being lenient by not killing you!"
The other group, having been slapped a few times, also got angry. They threw down their goods and started fighting with Li Mu and Da Zhuang.
"There are only two of them! What are you afraid of?! Brothers, get them! Give them a good beating!"
At the leader's command, the group of thieves pounced on Li Mu and Da Zhuang.
Although Li Mu and Da Zhuang were brave, they were no match for four hands, and gradually they began to lose ground.
Just then, the security guards on duty heard the fighting and rushed over. They were stunned when they saw the scene; they never expected that there would be a fight here in the middle of the night.
The security captain quickly took out his walkie-talkie and called for backup: "Hello, hello, this is the security office. There's a fight going on at the back door of the cafeteria. Requesting backup!"
"Hey! What are you all doing here!"
"A gang fight is taking place here!" the security captain shouted sternly.
When the group of thieves saw the security guards arrive, they panicked and tried to run away.
Li Mu and Da Zhuang took the opportunity to break free and retreat to the side.
The security guards quickly surrounded the group of thieves and pinned them to the ground one by one.
The security captain walked up to Li Mu and Da Zhuang and asked, "What happened between you two? Why were you fighting with them?"
Li Mu briefly recounted what had happened, and the security captain immediately understood.
He glared at the group of thieves and said, "This is outrageous! How dare you steal things here! Come on, let's go to the security room!"
The group of thieves hung their heads and obediently followed the security guard.
Li Mu and Da Zhuang exchanged a smile, feeling a surge of joy in their hearts.
Tonight's battle was truly exhilarating!
Just as the two were about to leave, Chef Sun suddenly ran out of the cafeteria.
When he saw that Li Mu and Da Zhuang were still there, his expression immediately changed.
"You...you haven't left yet?" Chef Sun stammered.
Li Mu looked at him and sneered, "What? Chef Sun is reluctant to part with us?"
Chef Sun's face turned pale and then red, but he tried to remain calm: "I...I came to check if they had damaged my things."
Li Mu didn't expose him, and said, "Oh? Is that so? Then Chef Sun should check it carefully, lest we say we broke your things again."
Chef Sun gave an awkward laugh and quickly ran in the direction the thieves had been taken away.
Li Mu and Da Zhuang watched his retreating figure, feeling a surge of disdain in their hearts.
This Chef Sun is a coward who bullies the weak and fears the strong. Now he's scared? Where was he before?
Neither of them wanted to stay there any longer. Li Mu followed to keep an eye on the people, while Da Zhuang went to find the police to report the incident.
After a while, the police arrived at the scene.
They handcuffed the group of thieves one by one and put them in the police car.
Manager Sun hurriedly stopped him, saying, "Officer, this is a misunderstanding! It's just our family joking around, there's no need to bother you, is there?"
The police officer looked at Chef Sun and said seriously, "Misunderstanding? We received a report that there was a group fight here and people were stealing things. What's going on?"
Upon hearing this, Chef Sun immediately panicked: "No, officer, please listen to me, it's all a misunderstanding. Those people, they are... they came to help me move my things."
The policeman looked at him with suspicion in his eyes: "Moving things? Helping you move things in the middle of the night? Do you think we're three-year-olds?"
Chef Sun was speechless; he didn't know how to convince the police.
At this moment, Li Mu walked over.
“Officer, here’s what happened. We found this group stealing from the municipal canteen, so we tried to stop them, and then they started fighting with us. Later, the security guards came and arrested them. As for this Chef Sun, he… he’s the head chef here, but I don’t know why he’s here and why he’s siding with those thieves.”
After listening to Li Mu's words, the police nodded and then said to Chef Sun, "Come back to the police station with us and explain the situation."
Upon hearing this, Chef Sun felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.
He knew he had failed this time.
Manager Liu received a phone call in the middle of the night while he was in bed. He rushed to the police station to find out what had happened. He exchanged a glance with Li Mu and then confessed about Manager Sun's affair.
"This head chef has done a lot of bad things at the municipal canteen. He embezzled and accepted bribes, lined his own pockets, and even colluded with thieves to steal goods from the canteen. There are surveillance cameras in the warehouse; you can find out as soon as you check."
The police officer's expression turned serious: "If the situation is true, we will definitely deal with it seriously."
They interrogated Chef Sun, who initially tried to deny his crimes, but faced with overwhelming evidence, he had no choice but to confess.
He wept bitterly, begging the police to be lenient with him.
Manager Liu handed Li Mu a cigarette: "Brother, we owe you a lot this time. If he hadn't been greedy, we wouldn't have been able to catch him red-handed."
Li Mu took the cigarette, lit it, and took a deep drag: "This is what he deserved. Here's your recording pen back."
Manager Liu took the recorder, a ruthless glint in his eyes: "This kind of person should be removed from office! Brother, you've really helped me a lot this time. If you need anything in the future, just let me know!"
"Brother, you're too kind."
The news of Chef Sun's misdeeds quickly spread throughout the municipal canteen, and he was immediately fired and forced to pack his things and leave.
Manager Liu rehired a head chef, and the cafeteria's operations gradually returned to normal.
