Xiao Bing was handcuffed. But he did not resist. After all, they were all public servants. No matter how powerful Xiao Bing was, he could not go against the government. Besides, Xiao Bing even worked for them once.
Luo Hao struggled to his feet and found one-third of his teeth gone. The right side of his face was very swollen. He felt dizzy and had double vision. Xiao Bing wondered if he had a concussion.
Even though Xiao Bing was arrested, Luo Hao found this man still smiling at him. The image terrified him and he regretted having offended this rascal.
A formidable momentum suddenly erupted from Red Rose when she saw Xiao Bing being arrested. All the mirrors in the shop were shattered, which startled the police. Luo Hao almost peed in his pants. It was not until then that he realized how powerful this woman was. He even felt that Xiao Bing was not as powerful as this woman, let alone his bodyguards.
Luo Hao’s guards’ anger suddenly turned into fear. They helped Luo Hao up, lowered their heads and pretended nothing had happened.
Xiao Bing looked back at Red Rose and said calmly in Language R, “Don’t worry, I’m fine. I suppose you already know that they are not powerful masters at all. Come with me and we will go home soon.”
The sharp momentum Red Rose was giving out dissipated gradually, after she heard what Xiao Bing said, which was a relief to those terrified policemen. Zhang Jianxun cast Xiao Bing a glance of gratitude. Though he did not understand Language R, he knew that it was Xiao Bing who managed to ease this woman’s anger. Otherwise, he could not imagine what would happen. He knew that this woman was a powerful master. He even guessed that she was a legendary master of concealing-strength or clear-strength. Powerful organizations would love to hire masters like her. And he believed the man beside her was not much less powerful than her.
It was evident that Xiao Bing was not a villain, since he did not resist, while being handcuffed. Since the director had demanded that Xiao Bing be taken to the police station, one could only wait for the outcome now.
Red Rose followed Xiao Bing. Zhang Jianxun did not stop her. When Xiao Bing was leaving, Luo Hao had intended to say something to threaten Xiao Bing. But Xiao Bing suddenly looked fiercely at him, which made him swallow the words he wanted to say.
After Xiao Bing was taken to the police car, Zhang Jianxun gave an order, “Uncuff him.”
The policemen uncuffed Xiao Bing without any hesitation. Red Rose got into the car without saying a word. Some policemen shot Zhang Jianxun a baffled glance. Zhang Jianxun nodded his consent. Then they felt relieved. After all, they did not want to offend this woman now.
Xiao Bing sat next to Red Rose, and then the car left, with its siren blaring away.
Red Rose asked, “Xiao Bing, can you tell me what happened just now?”
Xiao Bing then told her what happened in detail. Red Rose said, “You are living in a complicated world too.”
Xiao Bing managed a wry smile, “That’s true. Are you disappointed?”
“Not really. It’s not as bad as my hometown. The strong prey on the weak there. If I were you, I would have killed them.”
Xiao Bing smiled bitterly, “You can’t do things like that in this world. Things will become complicated if you do that. I will talk to you about it during the next few days.”
“Okay.” Red Rose’s eyes brightened when she heard that Xiao Bing was going to give her some lessons. “I want to get to know this world better.” She said jauntily.
Red Rose and Xiao Bing were talking and laughing, seemingly not worried about what would happen to them at the police station. Actually they did not have to worry, considering how powerful they were.
After they arrived, Xiao Bing and Red Rose got out of the car and walked into the police station. Out came a stout policeman. He cast a glance at Xiao Bing and asked, “He’s the one who beat up Luo Hao?”
Zhang Jianxun said, “Yes. But there’s a reason. It’s because…”
It turned out that this stout man was Zhou Qingshan, the director of this police station.
Zhou Qingshan said icily, “Mr. Luo just called me. He’s very unsatisfied with our service. You can’t be lenient with him just because he is so youthful. Everyone is equal before the law. Let me handle this man. Lock him up first in cell 7.”
Zhang Jianxun said, “Mr. Zhou, there’s not even an interrogation. Isn’t that inappropriate? And the men in that cell are not decent people…”
Zhou Qingshan glared at him and said, “Are you the director or am I?”
Zhang Jianxun’s face changed. Then he stopped talking.
Zhou Qingshan said, “Now go and lock him up. Who is this woman? Kick her out!”
Zhou Qingshan cast Red Rose a lascivious glance as he said this.
Smiling, Xiao Bing looked at Zhou Qingshan and said, “Are you sure that you’re going to lock me in a cell. It’s easy to lock me up, but it’s hard to let me go.”
“Nonsense! Do you think you can threaten us? We are doing it for the good citizens of this city. The people you attacked suffered serious injuries. It’s enough to prove that you’re guilty of causing intentional harm. You will spend dozens of years in prison, at least.”
Zhang Jianxun’s face changed again. It was obvious that Zhou Qingshan had been bribed by Luo Hao. 15 days’ of custody was the usual sentencing for a crime like this. But the director was sure that Xiao Bing would be in jail for dozens of years. He surmised that Xiao Bing would even be forced to confess.
Zhang Jianxun was not that afraid anymore. He straightened his body and said, “Mr. Zhou, since I am the one who arrested this man, I think it will be better if you let me handle this case, including deciding which cell he should be locked up in, who should be his cellmate and his interrogator. Indeed he did hit some people, but that doesn’t mean he committed a felony.”
Zhou Qingshan sounded irritated, “If I tell you to leave it to me, then you should just leave it. I can handle this myself. Are you the director of this police station or am I?”
Zhang Jianxun was determined. “If you insist on it, I will report this to the superiors. I have a strong feeling that you are playing favorites”.
Silence fell throughout the building. Though everyone knew that there was something going on between Zhang Jianxun and Zhou Qingshan, they did not think that they would quarrel because of Xiao Bing.
Xiao Bing watched them quarrelling the whole time. Zhou Qingshan scowled in anger, “How dare you!”
Zhang Jianxun said, “You tried to force me to give up my right of interrogating him, and excluded me from this case. My suspicion is well founded.”
Zhou Qingshan sneered angrily and said, “Zhang Jianxun, it seems that this position is of no interest to you. The superiors were very unhappy about your performance, but I put in a good word for you. Now, it seems that I need to advise them to find another vice-director.”
That was Luo Hao’s doing. He asked their boss to do this. And Zhou Qingshan would never praise Zhang Jianxun in front of their superiors. If he had the opportunity, he would definitely demote Zhang Jianxun. Though Zhang Jianxun was only the vice-director of the police station, he was often too straight-headed and righteous. That was why they could not work in harmony all this time. Today they finally brought this problem to the surface.
Zhang Jianxun felt irritated today, because he found it hard to be a good vice-director. He had intended to bring them all the police station. But now it was only Xiao Bing. He knew that Luo Hao had bribed them, and Zhou Qingshan would definitely make things difficult for Xiao Bing in the detention house. He just could not let that happen.
Zhang Jianxun bellowed angrily, “Say whatever you want to say. I will tell them about what you have been doing all these years, even if it will make me lose this job. I don’t have proof, but they will send men here to check it out.”
Zhou Qingshan was stunned and terrified. “You won’t dare to do that!” He scowled.
“Of course he dares.” Smiling, Xiao Bing looked at Zhou Qingshan. Then he looked at Zhang Jianxun and asked, “Can I make a call?”
Zhang Jianxun suddenly realized that Xiao Bing might not be as simple as he seemed. Otherwise he would not have hit Luo Hao in front of him and agreed to be handcuffed, without resisting. He wanted this issue to get bigger and bigger. “Of course you can.”
“Alright.” Xiao Bing then took out his cellphone and dialed a number. He smiled after the call was connected, “Monitor, I’m having a little problem here…”
Xiao Bing briefly told Monitor what happened. Monitor said he knew what to do, then he hung up. Xiao Bing knew the problem would be resolved soon, so he stood there and smiled as he waited.
Zhou Qingshan thought Xiao Bing was just bluffing. He sneered, “I can tell you that no one will be able to save you today. You called someone, right? I’d like to see how that guy will get you out of here. Zhang Jianxun, you made your threats and I also want to see how you are going to report to me. If both of you fail, this boy will be in prison for dozens of years and you, Zhang Jianxun, will be removed from duty!”
Xiao Bing looked Zhou Qingshan as if he was staring at a fool. Zhou Qingshan felt exasperated by Xiao Bing’s gaze. While he intended to sneer at Xiao Bing, he suddenly got a call. It was Director Jia. He cast a complacent look at Zhang Jianxun and said, “It’s from Director Jia. He must have decided that this problem has to be taken very seriously. You are nothing more than a vice-director. I wonder how you’re going to defy him.”
Zhang Jianxun’s face looked terrible when he heard it was Director Jia’s call. He knew how small he seemed in front of this man. The accusation he had used to threaten Zhou Qingshan were vague, because he did not even have proof of Zhou Qing’s corruption. It seemed that not only could he not protect Xiao Bing, but he would lose his job too.
While he worried about it, Zhou Qingshan took the call with a mocking smile. But the voice on the other side was not its customary calm tones. Instead, it was loud and grumpy. “Zhou Qingshan, what the hell are you doing? Who told you to bring the man into custody without a proper reason?”
