Chapter 401: Chapter 387: Surprise Inspection_1
Huang Ma Zi’s words darkened the faces of all the officials, and Liu Weijun, especially, exclaimed loudly, “This is lawless, absolutely lawless.”

Nie Zhenbang had a glacial expression. These people, with no regard for the law and rampant in their attitudes, infuriated Zhenbang. It was not their verbal assault per se that frustrated him, but rather what their recklessness indicated. Such audacity was not cultivated in a day or two. One could imagine how domineering this Tiger and his minion Huang Ma Zi must be here.

The term “Black Forces” suddenly flashed into Nie Zhenbang’s mind. While he was stunned, Yang Qingshan and the other drivers had already moved to the front, and various secretaries also stepped up, gearing up to sacrifice everything for their leaders.

Even though everyone understood there was no threat to their lives, the attitudes of the leaders towards their drivers and secretaries had fundamentally changed.

“Brother Gao, at this time, you can’t back down. There will be immediate support from the city’s Public Security Bureau. Now, you guys have to unite to block these thugs,” Yang Qingshan said to Gao Zhihua.

Yang Qingshan’s performance won Nie Zhenbang’s admiration for his composure and meticulousness in a crisis. After some grooming, he would make a capable officer.

Seeing that these people not only did not back down or fear him, but also confronted him, Huang Ma Zi felt his authority being challenged.

He was the sky and the ‘Local Emperor’ of Gaojia Town. With Tiger backing him up, even the officials of Gaojia Town had to greet him with a smile. People usually looked up to Huang Ma Zi. This was a provocation.

Huang Ma Zi scowled, shouting angrily. “Dammit, are you lot deaf or dumb, can’t you understand me? Move, take them down. I’ll take the consequences.”

These young people were all full of youthful energy and easily influenced by Hong Kong and Taiwan gangster films. The boss’s commanding presence in the films, and the scenes portraying brotherhood deeply influenced them. Riled up by Huang Ma Zi’s words, they all charged forward, yelling.

Yang Qingshan had moved forward to face one of the thugs carrying an iron rod. Dodging the attack, he grabbed the rod and jerked it out of the thug’s hands, tossing it back while saying, “Brother Gao, arm your men.”

Yang Qingshan’s words were precise. All the drivers and workers present were past soldiers and were more agile than the average person.

Yang Qingshan himself was a former scout with excellent combative skills. Within five minutes he’d seized several weapons. For a moment, Yang Qingshan and his group were holding the upper hand.

Just then, the harsh sound of a police siren rang out from the distance. A modified police minivan drove in their direction. The car stopped and six or seven police officers got out.

Seeing the police officers arrive, Huang Ma Zi sneered and said to Nie Zhenbang and the others, “You guys are quick to call the police. But even if you’ve called the cops, whatever Tiger wants, he gets.”

As soon as the policemen got out of the car, they moved forward. Scanning the crowd, they directed their attention at Huang Ma Zi, “Huang Wenbiao, you are stirring up trouble in public and resorting to violence.”

Huang Ma Zi’s previously smug face froze a little, and he said awkwardly, “Brother Yu, I was just joking. This Gao Zhihua was singled out by Tiger. He needs a beating. Our boss has given the order, Brother Yu, you see. Otherwise, it would be hard for me to explain.”

The leading policeman replied seriously, “Huang Wenbiao, stop toadying up to me. I don’t care about your boss. Now, disperse immediately, or we’ll arrest all of you.”

Nie Zhenbang watched and scoffed internally. This kind of thing was not uncommon at the grassroots level. The relationship between the local police and the hooligans was complicated, interdependent and exploitative. It was all too common.

It seemed like the city bureau had put pressure on these policemen, otherwise, they wouldn’t be acting in this professional manner.

Huang Ma Zi also sensed the anomaly at this moment, his eyes swept over everyone, stopping on Gao Zhihua, “Gao Zhihua, you got lucky today. But we’ll meet again. This isn’t over. Guys, let’s go.”

Seeing these people acting so brazenly, the police officers remained indifferent. Zhang Keqiang couldn’t contain himself. With the presence of the police, he plucked up the courage to step forward and said, “Which department are you from? How can you let these people who openly carry weapons, threaten and intimidate the public, go free? Why don’t you arrest them?”
