Chapter 279: Chapter 278 Yanbei Provincial Committee is Very Passive_1

Asking for identification is something that had never happened before for police officers like Captain Zhang.

Ordinary civilians seeing a police officer would be like mice seeing a cat. Their powerful aura and uniform were enough to intimidate them. There was no need to check their IDs.

At most, they’d just show their police badge. But Captain Zhang, who had seen a lot of ups and downs and dealt with leaders, felt a strange sense of authority from the young man standing in front of him. He felt as if he was facing his chief.

When he thought of Yao Kang standing next to him, he was no ordinary figure. His father was a member of the Zhuang City Municipal Committee and the Executive Deputy Mayor of the city government. It was said that his grandfather was a retired leader of the Yanbei Provincial Committee. No wonder Captain Zhang tried so hard to ingratiate himself with Yao Kang.

A good word from Young Master Yao could help Captain Zhang the next time he negotiates with Yao’s father. It could do more for him than any deeds.

Soon, Captain Zhang took out his ID from his pocket and handed it to Nie Zhenbang. With a cold smile he said, “It’s clear enough. This ID is real. If you don’t believe it, you can commend it to Ministry of Public Security for verification.”

He then turned stern and asked, “What’s your relationship with these people? If there’s anything inappropriate about it, I would have to ask you to come with me to the police station for a questionning.”

In this era, the credibility of the government and the police was incredibly strong. This was clear from the reactions of the onlookers.

Nie Zhenbang thought for a moment, then nodded and said, “Okay, we will go with you to the station.”

Nie Ziyu picked up his clothes, and the group left the Walmart. At this moment, Nie Zhenbang and the others were naturally heading towards their car.

On the other hand, Yao Kang was upset. The moment Nie Zhenbang agreed to go to the police station, a look of brutality flashed across Yao Kang’s face. He said, “What are you guys planning to do? Run away? Just as I thought, you bunch of craps aren’t any good. Kid, don’t be arrogant just because you have a little money. There’s a lot in this world that money can’t solve.”

At this moment, the idiot Yao Kang misinterpreted Nie Zhenbang’s cooperation as fear and spoke without restraint. Nie Zhenbang just gave Yao Kang a cold look and said, “Kid, watch your mouth. Don’t just bark at every single thing. Troubles start with careless words.”

At this moment, Captain Zhang was still maintaining a professional demeanor. He was a solid cop, and his demeanor was part of the reason why Nie Zhenbang was willing to cooperate. As for trying to curry favor? Nie Zhenbang understood that was normal as long as it didn’t cross any lines and principles.

“Comrades, I don’t think that’s appropriate. If you drive your own car, wouldn’t that be inconvenient? Let’s have my men drive you instead,” Captain Zhang suggested again.

The moment they saw the Land Rover vehicle and the military license plate, both Yao Kang and Captain Zhang’s expressions changed. Yao Kang even jumped up and exclaimed, “Good, you guys have some nerve, impersonating a military vehicle! Captain Zhang, we should take these lawless people more seriously.”

However, Captain Zhang was taken aback. As a professional police officer, he had previously worked in the traffic department and knew a thing or two about military license plates. Judging by the type of vehicle and the plate number, this might just be a real military plate.

Immediately, Captain Zhang leaned over to Yao Kang and whispered: “Brother Kang, these people seem to be not simple. The military vehicle might just be real.”

Yao Kang’s expression also changed. After a while, he said firmly: “Old Zhang, I won’t say much. I don’t care whether they belong to a military background. On the territory of Zhuang City, my grandfather is here, what do you have to fear? It’s necessary to teach these people a lesson. Captain Zhang, I heard that there is going to be a promotion of a vice chief in the city’s public security bureau today, Captain Zhang, you are very likely to get it.”

The implication was clear and had a threatening tone – if Captain Zhang acted according to his wishes, he’d help fight for the vice chief position. If he did not, then that position was not guaranteed.

Caught between his own future prospects and an unknown influential figure, Captain Zhang ultimately chose the former. However, he intentionally ignored the military vehicle. That way, if anything went wrong, he could claim he was unaware of it.

Immediately, Captain Zhang put on a serious face and said, “Xiao Wang, Xiao Qin, take all these people and put them in the police car. We need to make a record when we get back.”

The car soon drove into the office building of the Zhuang City Public Security Bureau. As soon as they entered the building, Captain Zhang’s demeanor changed. He was no longer the upright man he appeared to be at first. He turned to Nie Zhenbang and his group, his face revealing a hint of a smile as he ordered in a deep voice: “Xiao Qin, take the women to the interrogation room. And Xiao Wang, take this man to the second interrogation room.”

Nie Zhenbang himself was gutsy and bold, without any fear, but he was a bit worried about Nie Ziyu and their party. His face turned stern and he furrowed his brows, “What’s going on, Captain Zhang?”

“Don’t you realize what’s happening, kid? After I take care of you, it will be their turn. If you want to blame anyone, blame yourselves for crossing me.” At this moment, Yao Kang walked in from outside, looking extremely pleased with himself.

Nie Zhenbang’s countenance turned even grimmer, his eyebrows twitching in anger. This was a habit of his whenever he was furious.

There’s a limit to what one can endure. Yao Kang’s consecutive insults sparked rage in Nie Zhenbang. He retorted, “Wonderful, just wonderful. I’d like to see how you’re going to handle me.”

With that, Nie Zhenbang walked into the interrogation room. The officers and Yao Kang followed, and they shackled Nie Zhenbang. Yao Kang then approached with a stun gun, its electrodes sizzling.

Up until now, everything had been tolerable. But Yao Kang, who was neither a policeman nor anything of the sort, was carrying out his own form of justice. Nie Zhenbang knew this wasn’t right. The handcuffs were insignificant to him. He had the military training from his time in the Tiger Group, and with a flick of his wrist, the handcuffs came off.

Nie Zhenbang sprang into action, lunging through the air and kicking Yao Kang square in the chest, sending him sprawling to the ground. His expression dark, he turned to the other officers in the room and growled, “You receive your livelihood from the people, yet you fail to distinguish right from wrong and serve the wicked. This is unforgivable!”

His attack on the two officers was even more ruthless, and they were knocked to the ground in seconds. Seeing this, the last officer hightailed it out of the room and locked the door from the outside. He began shouting: “Help, someone help! Young Master Kang and Officer Wang have been taken hostage! Request immediate backup!”

The moment his cries filled the air, all the officers sprung into action. How audacious, causing a ruckus even in the Public Security Team. Officers swiftly began to converge on the scene.

Standing in the doorway of the deputy commander’s office, a middle-aged man watched everything unfold with a smirk. ‘What a bunch of fools,’ he thought. ‘Anyone willing to cause havoc in a police station has to be a desperado or someone powerful.’

This young man was brought in by Captain Zhang and Yao Kang; this wasn’t clearly a major incident, or else the Criminal Investigation Department would have taken over. It was apparent that this was someone with a powerful background. Now, it remained to be seen just how influential this person was.

Meanwhile, startled by the commotion outside, Dong Wan and the other three girls knew they had to act. Dong Wan pulled out her cell phone and dialed a number: “Brother, I’m in Zhuang City, and I’ve been taken to the Public Security Team at the local police station. Come and save us.”

Upon hearing Dong Wan’s words, Yang Anna also picked up her phone and dialed her father: “Dad, come and save me. I’m being bullied in Zhuang City and they’ve locked me up at the Public Security Team. Please send someone, or you’ll never see me again.”

At the same time, Nie Zhenbang also dialed his father, Nie Guowei. Once he heard his father’s voice, he said in a grim tone, “Dad, it’s me. Today, Ziyu, and I had a run-in with the son of a certain Mayor Yao in Zhuang City. We were taken to the local station by the commanding officer of the Public Security Team. They were acting on Mayor Yao’s personal vendetta against us. His son decided to take matters into his own hands and retaliate against me, but I’ve overpowered him. Are you familiar with Mayor Yao?”

Nie Zhenbang’s words contained a hidden message, and Nie Guowei instantly understood what he was implying. If Mayor Yao were a close ally, part of their inner circle, Nie Zhenbang would handle the situation tactfully. Internal problems should be dealt internally. However, if Yao was part of an opposing faction, then this could be an opportunity.

“Zhenbang, wait there for a minute, I’m coming right away. As long as we have the moral high ground, we have nothing to fear,” Nie Guowei calmly replied. This confirmed that Mayor Yao was not part of their group. As long as they were in the right, they could escalate the situation.

Meanwhile, at Jingcheng City Military District, Dong Zhihua, the commander of a mechanized infantry brigade in Langzhou City, immediately instructed, “Adjutant Zhang, issue my command. Order the helicopter squadron and a contingent of special forces to rush to Zhuang City Public Security Bureau, Public Security Team, and ensure the rescue of a girl named Dong Wan.” After the order, Dong Zhihua rushed to the general headquarters to report.

Within ten minutes, Fang Dabao, the commander of Yanbei Military Region, received a call from the commander of the army group. He was informed that Old Dong’s granddaughter was being held in Zhuang City. Fang Dabao immediately asked his secretary to prepare the car because he needed to go to the Provincial Committee headquarters.

At this moment, Secretary Qin of the Yanbei Provincial Committee was in shock. He had just received a call from Yang Shengli, the Minister of Transport, explaining that his daughter had been detained in Zhuang City Public Security Team and was in danger. If anything happened to her, it would shake up the upper ranks of Yanbei province.

As he was getting up, Nie Guowei, the Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee and Governor, walked in with a grave look on his face. “Secretary Qin, I have to report to you. Just now, I received a call from my son, Nie Zhenbang. Both he and my daughter have been detained by the Zhuang City Public Security Team. Based on my son’s account, Yao Kang, the son of Yao Linshan, the deputy mayor of Zhuang City, is suspected of abusing his power for personal gain. I implore the Provincial Committee to take serious action. Of course, this is only one side of the story. If the problem lies with my son and daughter, I am willing to face disciplinary action from the organization!”
