I really don't want to be an official if I transmigrate into Qi Tongwei's life.

Chapter 102 Sacrificing Family for the Righteous

Arriving at Mr. Shen's compound, one finds a detached villa, a cultural collision between the villas of Shanghai and the courtyards of Beijing.

Old Shen is 80 years old this year. He came from the revolutionary era, and there is a kind of murderous intent in his eyes that he cannot hide. He sits on the mahogany chair, exuding an imposing presence without anger.

Tang Guozhong and Tian Xiaobing followed behind, feeling both admiration and trepidation in the presence of these revolutionary predecessors.

Qi Tongwei saluted respectfully, "Reporting, sir, my name is Qi Tongwei. Sorry to bother you."

Old Shen stared at Qi Tongwei for a few seconds and found that the young man had some courage and did not show any fear.

"Tell me, what is it that needs to bother me?"

Qi Tongwei appeared very serious. "Reporting to the commander, a few days ago, an officer from the anti-smuggling bureau was brutally murdered by a smuggling gang simply because he had previously sabotaged their shipment of smuggled goods worth 50 million yuan."

"Back then, you and countless revolutionary martyrs sacrificed your lives to drive out the imperialists and reclaim our customs ownership."

"Nowadays, a bunch of parasites have even extended their reach to customs. Smuggling harms the interests of the country and the people. It is undermining the foundation of the Chinese nation, yet it only enriches a small group of criminals. I believe that cracking down on smuggling is imperative and must be dealt with severely and swiftly. Otherwise, if the country's economy continues on the fast track of rapid development, there will be endless troubles in the future."

"Our municipal bureau has busted a stolen goods distribution den called Jinxin 4S Store. The legal representative is your son, Shen Guoqing. I hope to bring him back for questioning."

"Brilliant! First courtesy, then force!" Tang Guozhong couldn't help but want to applaud Qi Tongwei.

Tian Xiaobing was completely dumbfounded. "How come I never thought of these words?"

Old Shen relaxed a little. The young man's words touched him. Thousands upon thousands of revolutionary martyrs died for their belief in communism. He was lucky to have survived. He must not forget his roots.

"Go check out the film studio."

Old Shen made a difficult decision: to put the greater good before family ties.

"Thank you for your support, Mr. Shen. I won't bother you any longer."

Qi Tongwei, along with Tang Guozhong and Tian Xiaobing, immediately left and headed to the film studio.

Grandma Shen came out, her face full of worry. "Old man, you did the right thing. Guoqing made a mistake and should be punished. That child was right; the interests of the country must always come before personal interests."

Old Shen closed his eyes, deeply saddened. "I've raised such a son; I'm so sorry to all the comrades who sacrificed their lives."

Shanghai Film City.

After getting off the bus, Qi Tongwei ordered Tang Guozhong and Tian Xiaobing to split up and search.

Shen Guoqing is currently flirting with an actress on set.

Qin Ge, a female producer and actress, walked over and said, "Shen Guoqing, you still have the mind to play around here? I heard the city police are coming to arrest you."

Shen Guoqing is 30 years old this year. He played rock and roll and was rebellious in college. He studied abroad for two years and was impacted by liberalism. Now he is unrestrained and loves freedom. He was lucky to go abroad in 83, otherwise he would definitely have been charged with hooliganism.

"Jin Xin 4S store has absolutely nothing to do with me, why are they arresting me? I don't know anything about it. I'll go to the Municipal Public Security Bureau in a couple of days to explain, and that'll be fine."

Shen Guoqing didn't care at all. His older brother and sister could handle this little matter without the old man having to step in. It was all because he was born into a good family.

Qin Ge grabbed his ear. The two were the same age and had grown up together. Their fathers even wanted to arrange a marriage between them, but both parties strongly opposed it. Qin Ge disliked Shen Guoqing for being useless, while Shen Guoqing disliked Qin Ge for being domineering and not gentle.

Qin Ge's daughter is now five years old, but they have been divorced for a year.

"Shen Guoqing, can't you use your brain for once? Smuggling is a capital offense."

Shen Guoqing quickly stood up, covered his ears, and grimaced in pain. This woman was still so ruthless.

"Qin Ge, stop trying to scare me. The 4S store has nothing to do with me. I'm just helping a friend out by being listed as the legal representative."

"Did you take the money?"

"Why would I accept money for helping a friend? Do I look like that kind of person? You know I love freedom and consider money dirt. A worldly person like you will never understand."

Qin Ge wanted to slap him. He was still the same as when he was a child. He couldn't win a fight, but he just wouldn't admit defeat.

With the blessing of an incredibly lucky system, Qi Tongwei searched around the film set and soon spotted Shen Guoqing.

"Shen Guoqing, this is Qi Tongwei from the Municipal Public Security Bureau. Please come with me to assist in the investigation."

Shen Guoqing pretended to straighten his suit. "Kid, let me see your ID."

Qi Tongwei showed his identification. "Can we leave now?"

Shen Guoqing chuckled, "Kid, are you kidding me? Since when did the Municipal Bureau have an investigator position? I suspect you're a fraud."

Qi Tongwei said with a serious face, "Shen Guoqing, I'm not joking with you. Old Shen told me you're at the film studio, so please cooperate, otherwise I won't tolerate you."

Suddenly, a group of martial arts performers wearing Japanese flags came over to watch the spectacle; they were filming a period drama set in the Republican era.

Even on set, Qi Tongwei still felt uncomfortable seeing the Japanese flag, because this was on Chinese soil.

Shen Guoqing laughed, "Kid, you really don't know your place. Brothers, I'm buying you drinks tonight. Hold this kid down with me, I'm going to personally take this swindler to the police station."

Qin Ge did not stop them. Even if it was a policeman, she didn't take a small policeman seriously. Shen Guoqing was not someone that could be bullied by just anyone.

Qi Tongwei clenched his fists, making a cracking sound. "Shen Guoqing, if you won't listen to reason, then I'll play along."

Shen Guoqing laughed heartily, "Brothers, what are you all standing there for? This kid's mocking you! Have some self-control, don't really hurt him!"

The martial arts instructors were all eager to get started. Shen Guoqing usually treated them well; he truly didn't care about money, as long as he was happy.

"Young Master Shen, don't worry, we are professionals and won't hurt that kid."

"Young Master Shen, could you get me a few bottles of Moutai tonight?"

"No problem, it's just Moutai."

Shen Guoqing waved his hand generously, showing great generosity.

Qi Tongwei looked at Qin Ge, who had a calm expression. The woman was wearing a cheongsam, and she was graceful and elegant, exuding the charm of a mature woman. She was the kind of woman that any man would find irresistible.

"Madam, if I'm not mistaken, you must be a producer. Your men are obstructing the police. If I injure them and delay the filming schedule, you can't blame me."

Arrogant! Qin Ge never expected that Qi Tongwei would dare to threaten a group of martial arts masters all by himself.

"If you beat them, I'll cast you as the male lead in my next film."

Qin Ge looked amused; this kid's looks were more than enough to make him an actor.

Qi Tongwei glanced around. "I have no interest in being an actor. I'll say it again: this is a police investigation. Anyone who dares to obstruct law enforcement will face consequences."

Shen Guoqing clapped his hands. "Brothers, what are we waiting for? Let's teach this kid a lesson!"

"Young Master Shen, watch me demonstrate a Tongbei Fist for you."

The martial arts master took off his shirt, revealing his well-defined muscles, and delivered a few powerful, rapid-fire punches.

Qi Tongwei laughed. Luckily, he hadn't run into the Nine Gates Admiral who was looking down on people.
