Chapter 14

Lin Feng and the troublemaker Li Ergou were taken away in custody. Xia Shiyu also followed to make a statement.

Li Ergou and the police officer Sun Tao shared a police car.

Sun Tao, a small team leader at the Jiangzhou Police Station, was familiar with Li Ergou. Li Ergou, as a small-time thug, often provided Sun Tao with information, such as small-scale gambling and theft activities.

Sun Tao, relying on Li Ergou’s information, accumulated many achievements and was promoted to the position of a small team leader in the area.

“Sun ge, you must help me deal with this guy!” Li Ergou gritted his teeth. He couldn’t believe that Sun Tao was the one responding to the call this time.

Sun Tao remained silent, his face cold. Li Ergou cursed inwardly, “What’s so great about being a small team leader? Without me providing you with information, you’re nothing!”

Sun Tao silently took out his phone and unlocked it.

On his phone wallpaper was a clear picture of Lin Feng.

This was a photo sent down from above. It was instructed that during these days, whoever received a report involving the person in the photo, Lin Feng, should minimize the impact.

Sun Tao recognized Lin Feng the moment he saw him. Using a fabricated charge, he brought Lin Feng back to the police station.

Sun Tao dialed a number.

“Boss, that Lin Feng is now in my hands. How should I handle it?” Sun Tao respectfully inquired.

“Are you sure you didn’t get the wrong person?”

“Don’t worry, Boss. His photo is set as my wallpaper. I dream about his face every day.” Sun Tao confirmed.

A joyful voice came through the phone, “Great! I’ll inform Young Master Chu. Bring him back to the station and let him suffer a bit first.”

“I understand.”

Sun Tao hung up the phone and quickly returned to the police station.

In the interrogation room:

“Lin Feng, Li Ergou and the others have confessed. They said you assaulted them and demanded compensation for medical expenses.” Sun Fan sneered.

“They trespassed into a private residence, attempting to harm a young lady. Moreover, I guess it was the young lady who called the police. How did you collect evidence with those three thugs?” Lin Feng countered.

“Bang!”

Sun Tao slammed the table in anger, stood up, and shouted at Lin Feng, pointing his finger at him, “You, Lin Feng! Since you’re not cooperating with the investigation, don’t blame me for not being polite!”

Without waiting for Lin Feng to explain, two police officers took Lin Feng and escorted him to the detention center.

Lin Feng made no resistance.

Firstly, it was a police station.

Secondly, justice would prevail.

Lin Feng believed that once the Song family learned of his situation, they would certainly find a way to get him out. Even if they couldn’t, with the Song family’s influence, they could escalate the matter.

Once the issue became significant, Sun Tao’s baseless accusations wouldn’t withstand scrutiny.

On the other side, Sun Tao had already called the detention center, “I’m sending someone to you. He offended a leader from above. I remember that Black Dragon is also in the detention center. Put him and Black Dragon in the same cell.”

“Remind Black Dragon not to beat him to death. Just break an arm and a leg will do.” Sun Tao said, his eyes gleaming.

He seemed to see his path to promotion right in front of him.

Especially after the call where the leader mentioned “Young Master Chu,” there was only one person in the entire Jiangzhou who could be Young Master Chu.

Chu Qiu, the young master of Chu International.

The more Sun Tao thought about it, the more excited he became.

In the detention center,

Lin Feng, wearing handcuffs, arrived at the entrance of a cell. The prison guard opened the door, and a pungent smell immediately wafted out, causing Lin Feng to frown.

Inside the cell, a fierce-looking man stood up and glared at the prison guard. “We already have enough people here. Why bring in another one?”

The prison guard glanced at the big man, Black Dragon, and said, “This is Captain Sun’s idea. He’s new here. Take care of him, and don’t bully him!”

After saying that, the prison guard gave Black Dragon a meaningful look.

Black Dragon understood.

The cell door was closed, and the burly Black Dragon lay directly on the bed, knocking his legs together, playfully looking at Lin Feng. “Kid, come over and give Grandpa a foot massage.”

“Are you calling me?” Lin Feng asked in surprise.

“Of course, am I calling a dog?”

“Aren’t you barking like a dog?” Lin Feng retorted.

“What the hell!” Black Dragon roared in anger, standing up abruptly. His henchmen also stood up, and Black Dragon shouted, “Beat him to death!”

The group rushed towards Lin Feng.

Facing the group’s assault, Lin Feng was not afraid at all. He clenched his fists, emitting a powerful aura. With a loud bang, Black Dragon, who was at the forefront, was forcefully sent flying and slammed into the wall.

Outside the door, the prison guard heard the commotion and chuckled.

“Black Dragon handles things well; he’s efficient.”

Inside the cell,

Lin Feng rushed to Black Dragon’s side. He made a few movements with his hands on Black Dragon’s body, and the latter couldn’t make a sound.

Lin Feng also sealed the acupoints of the other assailants.

The cell became quiet. Only the sound of objects hitting the wall could be heard. After ten minutes, the prison guard couldn’t stand it anymore and deliberately walked to a more distant place.

He believed in Black Dragon’s ability; there wouldn’t be a loss of life.

At the police station,

Sun Tao was lounging with his legs crossed, sipping tea contentedly.

“If I handle Young Master Chu’s trouble, I can at least become a deputy bureau chief.” Sun Tao smirked.

The Chu family wanted him to become a deputy bureau chief, which was just a matter of a word. One must know that the Chu family’s words were like policies to the entire Jiangzhou.

Deng, deng, deng—

Suddenly, Sun Tao, who was in the midst of daydreaming, heard hurried footsteps. He couldn’t help but furrow his brows. “What’s going on?”

“Captain Sun, two people are here outside.”

“What kind of people?”

“Higher-ups…” The officer said cautiously.

Hearing that they were “from higher up,” Sun Tao excitedly stood up, thinking, “Young Master Chu is handling things so quickly. He sent people from higher up to appoint him. I might even be able to become a deputy director soon.”

“Hurry, go and welcome them!” Sun Tao urged eagerly.

“No need.”

As Sun Tao’s words fell, a cold female voice echoed from outside. Sun Tao instinctively looked up, only to see Zhao Jing entering. She was dressed in ordinary attire, but her demeanor was elegant and heroic.

“Dragon Pavilion Special Operations Team, Zhao Jing!” Zhao Jing directly revealed her identity.

Dragon Pavilion!

Sun Tao’s body trembled suddenly, excitement showing on his face. He thought to himself, “I never expected the influence of the Chu family to be so immense, even infiltrating the prestigious Great Xia Dragon Pavilion.”

Sun Tao felt as if he had stepped into heaven.

Zhao Jing, unaware of Sun Tao’s inner thoughts, put away her identification card and said coldly, “Sun Tao, did you just arrest someone named Lin Feng?”

“Yes, yes, yes!” Sun Tao nodded repeatedly.

Come on, praise me! I’m going to get promoted and wealthy!

Sun Tao laughed inwardly.

“Sun Tao, you are suspected of favoritism, abuse of power, and dereliction of duty. You are suspended pending investigation,” Zhao Jing said, taking out a suspension notice and looking coldly at Sun Tao.

Bang—

Hearing that he was suspended pending investigation, Sun Tao’s excitement instantly turned into despair and disbelief. He collapsed on the ground, feeling powerless.

Zhao Jing didn’t say anything more.

“Sun Tao, where is Lin Feng now?”

“He’s in… in the detention center.” Sun Tao’s lips trembled, his face turning pale.

Hearing that Lin Feng was in the detention center, Zhao Jing’s expression changed. She seemed to have guessed something. Then, she looked at Sun Tao with cold eyes. “If anything happens to Lin Feng, I guarantee you won’t have to worry about your food and clothing in your next life.”

Sun Tao could hear the sarcasm in Zhao Jing’s words.

Cold sweat dripped from his forehead.

“Sun Tao, aren’t you going to lead us there?” Zhao Jing squinted.

“Captain Zhao, please come this way!” Sun Tao quickly bent over, respectfully leading the way.

If Sun Tao felt like he was in heaven during his daydreams earlier, he now felt like he was in real hell.

Soon, they arrived outside the cell.

“Open the door,” Sun Tao shouted to the prison guard.

The prison guard didn’t hesitate and quickly found the key to the cell where Lin Feng was detained.

At the same time, Sun Tao secretly prayed that Black Dragon had only taught Lin Feng a lesson. If he had really disabled Lin Feng, then Sun Tao’s future was truly over.

He wasn’t a fool; he knew Lin Feng was definitely from the Dragon Pavilion Special Operations Bureau.

“What’s the situation inside?” Zhao Jing asked.

“It’s been very quiet inside,” the prison guard replied.

Very quiet! Sun Tao’s heart trembled. He knew that Black Dragon would definitely teach Lin Feng a lesson, and the prison guard saying it was quiet inside, did it mean Lin Feng was beaten to death?

It’s over… it’s over… Sun Tao’s career was plunged into darkness.

“Click—”

The cell door opened, and the scene that greeted everyone left them dumbfounded.

Lin Feng was lying on the bed, surrounded by four or five burly men massaging his legs and back, just like a group of maids.

Sun Tao couldn’t believe his eyes.

Zhao Jing’s face also turned gloomy. If she had known that Lin Feng was being treated like this in prison, she wouldn’t have exposed her identity to come and rescue him.

Lin Feng, with his eyes closed, was enjoying the moment with an expression of contentment.

Zhao Jing remained silent.

Sun Tao quickly spoke up, “Lin Feng, this is a comrade from the Special Operations Bureau. After an investigation, it was found that Li Ergou and the others framed you. You are now released without any charges.”

“I’m released without any charges?” Lin Feng couldn’t believe it. He had been here for less than half an hour, and his seat hadn’t even warmed up yet. Yet, he was already released.

Zhao Jing glanced coldly at Sun Tao. “You are now suspended pending investigation. You had no right to say those things just now.”

“Captain Zhao is right in disciplining me,” Sun Tao nodded and bowed, ingratiating himself.

Zhao Jing ignored Sun Tao and turned to Lin Feng. “Lin Feng, pack up and come with me.”

“Okay.”

Lin Feng nodded without any pretense.

He followed Zhao Jing out of the police station. Once he got his phone back, he immediately called Xia Shiyu to let her know he was safe and that everything was just a misunderstanding.

Upon hearing that Lin Feng was out, Xia Shiyu breathed a sigh of relief.

Lin Feng got into a car with Zhao Jing, and the two drove towards the outskirts of the city. Along the way, Lin Feng looked at the familiar scenery, raising an eyebrow slightly.

This is the direction to the villa from last night!

The prison is great!

There’s food and drink, a group of people serving him, and most importantly, no overbearing fiancée.

“Cough—”

Sun Tao cleared his throat, signaling Lin Feng to open his eyes.

When Lin Feng opened his eyes, he saw Zhao Jing looking at him with a predatory gaze. Lin Feng jumped up excitedly, looking at Zhao Jing with enthusiasm. “You’re here too?”
