Chapter 8 The Significance of Leveraging Momentum

Zuo Xiaoqing walked over coldly and took the phone from the young officer's hand: "Uncle, it's Xiaoqing!"

Hong Ling was furious with the sycophants of the security department: "This cannot be overlooked. Our bags have been slashed, our belongings have been stolen, and instead of catching the thieves, they have locked us up here. This is outrageous!"

Who do you think you are? Don't you enjoy bullying others? Today, I will let you experience what it feels like to be bullied.

Zhang Yang was unaware of how many grievances his phone call had caused. The atmosphere in the security department of the passenger transport company was tense, with Wang Zhongke insisting on taking Zhang Yang away. Zuo Xiaoqing stood in front of Zhang Yang, saying, "I also want to make a phone call"

Li Changyu had just fallen asleep not long ago when he received a call from Liu Haitao, and he was clearly somewhat displeased. Although Liu Haitao was on the other end of the line, he could sense his dissatisfaction from his tone. While feeling uneasy, he also felt a bit of secret delight. He even imagined that Secretary Li was in the midst of paying his taxes, thinking to himself, "If your people won't let me be at ease, then I won't let you be at ease either; you deserve to be unlucky!" Only in his mind could the driver, Xiao Liu, dare to indulge in such fantasies.

Zuo Xiaoqing widened her eyes in surprise: "Zhang Yang!" A hint of uncontainable joy appeared in her clear, beautiful eyes. Although she did not regard the local bullies at the station, being trapped here still made the two girls somewhat fearful. Seeing Zhang Yang's arrival naturally brought her a sense of reassurance.

Li Changyu fell silent upon hearing about Zhang Yang's situation. This reckless kid, why can't he ever let me have some peace? I've given you the money, and I've tried my best to help you in your official matters. You have to give me some time, right? Can't you show a little patience? Why do you have to get into trouble so quickly? Anger aside, the problem still needs to be addressed. Li Changyu said in a calm tone, "Xiao Liu, did he mention my name?"

Zuo Xiaoqing also looked at him with a cold smile: "If you do not let me make a phone call, I can guarantee that tomorrow you will be dealt with for illegally depriving someone of their personal freedom"

Wang Zhongke's head buzzed loudly; although he was merely a small director, he was aware that the head of the Jiangcheng Public Security Bureau was surnamed Tian. Tian Qinglong's name was well-known as the most prominent figure in the entire Jiangcheng public security system. Everyone knew Tian Qinglong's decisive temperament and his swift, resolute methods. Wang Zhongke did not even doubt the authenticity of the call.

Zhang Yang, firstly, was full, and secondly, he was unwilling to mingle with this group of young children. Moreover, most of them looked at him with disdainful eyes, so why make others uncomfortable? This incident shows that Doctor Zhang has been continuously improving since arriving in this era and has begun to learn to consider the feelings of others

Shao Weijiang did not even glance at Wang Zhongke and quietly asked, "Who is Zhang Yang?"

Director Shao turned his back and revealed a hint of a cold smile, "Who are you threatening, you old hag? Do you think I want to touch you? ... What I have is humanitarianism. I can't help but think of the round backside of the young staff member in the publicity department, and the usually composed Director Shao actually ... stiffened.

Is my third aunt at home? Zuo Xiaoqing did not mention the trouble of the evening, yet the expressions of all the police officers led by Wang Zhongke changed. No one is a fool; everyone could hear that Tian Qinglong is Zuo Xiaoqing's uncle by marriage. Even Hong Ling, who was standing nearby, widened her eyes, unable to conceal the excitement and envy in her gaze. It seems that her information is not comprehensive; Zuo Xiaoqing's background is truly unfathomable. The director of the Jiangcheng Public Security Bureau, Tian Qinglong, is actually her uncle by marriage. Even Hong Ling, who was standing nearby, widened her eyes, unable to conceal the excitement and envy in her gaze. It seems that her information is not comprehensive; Zuo Xiaoqing's background is truly unfathomable. The director of the Jiangcheng Public Security Bureau, Tian Qinglong, is actually her uncle by marriage

Liu Haitao let out a sigh of relief; upon hearing Li Changyu's words, he understood that the county magistrate's anger had indeed been successfully incited by him. A sense of pride welled up within him, feeling somewhat complacent. How dare a mere section chief show off in front of me? I am eager to see how you will end this today

Liu Haitao was taken aback for a moment; his wife's complaint reminded him that he had rashly gone to challenge the young director. Although it was for Secretary Li, doing good deeds should also be acknowledged, shouldn't it? Moreover, this young director seemed to have little regard for him. What if he were to embarrass him in person? The quality of a county party secretary's driver is indeed different; they consider issues more comprehensively than the average person. Liu Haitao quickly made a decision: it would be best to consult Secretary Li's opinion on this matter first.

Han Chuanbao's expression darkened: "Is buying a ticket all there is to it? You are currently gathering in a crowd to create a disturbance, disrupting social order. I will pursue this matter to the end"

Han Chuanbao saw himself getting closer to the furnace, and if he didn't soften his stance soon, this kid would probably treat his face like a pancake: "It was all our work's mistake, we wronged good people... Brother... Sister... I will compensate for your losses..."

Sun Chuanfu was originally someone who relied on the power of others. His confidence had long been completely shaken by Zhang Yang's display of dominance. Moreover, upon seeing Zhang Yang's attire, it was evident that this young man came from a well-off family. Given the small size of Chunyuan County, it was possible he was the child of some government official. With this thought in mind, Sun Chuanfu's tone immediately softened by three points: "We are currently investigating the situation; everything must be thoroughly investigated, right?"

Han Chuanbao nodded slightly and said in a low voice to Sun Chuanfu: "Bring him in!"

"Stop it! Assaulting a state official, do you know this is a crime?"

Li Changyu hung up the phone and immediately dialed the number of the county police chief, Shao Weijiang. Today is the weekend, and Shao Weijiang is busy helping his wife with the household chores. Having had a bit to drink, Comrade Weijiang is in high spirits today, performing at his best level in nearly a year. Just as he is in high spirits, the phone rings. Shao Weijiang has a habit: as soon as he hears the phone ring, he immediately deflates. Seeing the disappointment on his wife's face, Comrade Weijiang is quite irritated, thinking to himself that the timing is truly unfortunate, and he feels compelled to demote the caller.

Han Chuanbao felt a chill from the bottom of his heart due to his laughter, staring at Zhang Yang: "Wasn't it you who asked me to handcuff you just now?"

Sun Chuanfu was also taken aback. Clearly, he had not exerted all his strength with that strike. He was aware that this young man was a student, and if he were to cause any serious injury, it would be difficult to explain. However, he did not expect him to be so fragile; one blow was enough to knock him unconscious.

A person pushed open the door, and Zhang Yang had already seen Zuo Xiaoqing and Hong Ling sitting inside. Zuo Xiaoqing was leaning against the stove, resting on the chair, her pretty face nestled within the collar of her red down jacket, seemingly on the verge of falling asleep, while Hong Ling was arguing angrily.

Zuo Xiaoqing is a bright girl who understands things quickly. With just a couple of sentences, she realizes that this boy with a face full of acne has ulterior motives. Having figured out the situation, Zuo Xiaoqing feels somewhat repulsed: "In that case, let's return to the hospital first; we will not lose a single cent of the ticket price."

Zuo Xiaoqing's delicate and charming face did not reveal any hint of self-satisfaction; it remained as calm as water. She stood beside Zhang Yang and softly asked, "Director Wang, can we go now?"

The young officer in front shouted with great authority: "No!"

While Zhang Yang was on the phone, Wang Zhongke was listening attentively nearby. When he heard the mention of Secretary Li, he couldn't help but tremble inside. In Chunyang County, the first thought that came to mind when mentioning Secretary Li was Li Changyu. However, this thought was fleeting; Zhang Yang appeared to be just a twenty-year-old kid. What connection could he possibly have with Secretary Li? As Wang Zhongke was mulling this over in his mind, Zhang Yang cheerfully raised the phone and asked, "Who is Director Wang?"

Han Chuanbao was both shocked and frightened; his right arm had completely lost its function due to dislocation. It seemed that the other party had indeed not exaggerated. Just as he was contemplating how to soften his stance, the sound of a police siren suddenly echoed from outside. When Zhang Yang had been fighting inside, someone from the security department had secretly called the police. The station's police station was right next to the passenger terminal, and upon receiving the news, they rushed over immediately.

Liu Haitao wore a pained expression, feeling numb; this life was truly unbearable. With a forced smile, he got out of bed, glanced at the unfamiliar number, and still picked up the phone to call back.

Tian Qinglong's hearty laughter resonated, and everyone in the room could hear his laughter; the penetrating power of the city bureau chief's voice is indeed remarkable

The security guard, named Sun Chuanfu, was not officially part of the passenger transport company's staff; he had managed to secure a temporary position here due to family connections. Upon seeing how his voice stunned the group of students, he immediately became arrogant. He pointed at Wang Rui and said, "You! I recognize you. Ha! You even called someone over, quite impressive, huh? Do you believe I can lock you all up?"

Old Shao, I have a nephew named Zhang Yang who has been detained by the police station at the bus station. I am not very clear about the reasons for this incident, but it seems that the child has suffered some grievances. Initially, I intended for Driver Xiao Liu to handle it, but unfortunately, he lacks the capability. Old Shao, I truly apologize for calling you so late and disturbing your rest

Wang Zhongke was momentarily taken aback, but he still walked over to pick up the phone receiver. His heart involuntarily began to race; since the caller had directly reached him, it was either an acquaintance or a superior. Wang Zhongke cautiously said, "Hello".

Liu Haitao was immediately enraged upon hearing the other party hang up the phone. How could a mere small station chief dare to hang up on him? Even the county police chief would not dare to do such a thing. The smaller the figure around a leader, the more they tend to value their face. Liu Haitao felt disregarded, and this disregard precisely touched the bottom line of his patience. He silently got dressed; this matter was no longer just about Zhang Yang. It now equated to this small station chief named Wang Zhongke openly challenging him.

Sun Chuanfu subtly winked at them, indicating that this young man had offended the section chief and would soon receive a good lesson

Wang Ruisheng, fearing that the situation would escalate, rushed over to grab Zhang Yang, and with a smiling face said to Han Chuanbao: "We have brought the money and will pay for the tickets immediately"

The director's wife lay there, damp and disheveled. She had originally planned to continue the fight after Shao Weijiang finished his call, but upon seeing him getting up to dress, she could no longer contain her feelings of grievance and disappointment: "Don't ever touch me again!" Then she covered her head with the blanket.

Wang Zhongke knew that the county party secretary was Li Changyu, but he did not know that his driver was named Liu Haitao. Nevertheless, he still expressed a considerable degree of politeness in his tone: "Oh! Hello!"

The voice of Liu Haitao, who is serious and unsmiling, came through the receiver: "Wang, this is Liu Haitao, the driver of Secretary Li from the County Committee!"

After obtaining permission, Zhang Yang used the phone from the Security Department to send a pager to Secretary Li's driver, Liu Haitao

The officer responsible for making the call felt his right hand trembling as he held the phone. After dialing, a booming voice came through: "Hello, I am Tian Qinglong..." This is the style of Director Tian when answering the phone; his first words are always the same. For an ordinary officer, connecting to the city bureau chief's phone is an indescribable shock. He felt as if he were holding a grenade with a lit fuse, wishing he could throw it away immediately. The officer responsible for making the call felt his right hand trembling as he held the phone.

Sun Chuanfu looked at Zhang Yang with some sympathy, thinking to himself that the young man was in trouble. He reached for the rubber baton tucked into his waist. The interns, seeing that the other party was about to get serious, couldn't help but feel a bit intimidated. Wang Rui nudged Zhang Yang's arm: "Let's leave first"

Wang Zhongke's breathing had also become somewhat labored. The director of the municipal bureau, after all, held the rank of deputy department head, while he was merely a small deputy section chief, rendering him completely powerless in front of him. Wang Zhongke felt a sense of fear; he dared not answer the phone under any circumstances. His gaze turned to Zuo Xiaoqing, but it had now transformed into a plea. He sensed that he had unknowingly fallen into a predicament, and the only person who could rescue him from this dilemma was Zuo Xiaoqing.

Zhang Yang let out a cold laugh

As Wang Zhongke was contemplating taking the opportunity to step down, the sound of police sirens echoed outside, and his unease grew increasingly palpable

Seeing that the situation had truly escalated, the interns who had originally gathered outside the door were frightened and began to disperse. Everyone had a bright future ahead of them; no one wanted to end up in a police station, did they

Wang Zhongke glanced at Han Chuanbao, who was slumped with his shoulders drooping, then looked at Sun Chuanfu, lying on the ground with blood all over his face. His gaze fell on the menacing Zhang Yang, and he couldn't help but be taken aback. This fellow's combat ability was indeed formidable. Setting aside Han Chuanbao, both Sun Chuanfu and another security personnel were robust and strong, being the two most capable fighters under Han Chuanbao. It was unexpected that they had no chance to fight back in front of this young man. This fellow's combat ability was indeed formidable. Setting aside Han Chuanbao, both Sun Chuanfu and another security personnel were robust and strong, being the two most capable fighters under Han Chuanbao. It was unexpected that they had no chance to fight back in front of this young man.

Han Chuanbao, dressed in a grass-green police uniform, pretended to cough twice and said: "I say, comrade, how is it that you still do not realize your mistake regarding the *ticket*? The nature of fare evasion is serious; it is not simply a matter of paying the fare back, it is..."

Han Chuanbao subtly signaled with his eyes, and a security personnel closed the door. Sun Chuanfu, standing behind Zhang Yang, raised a rubber baton and struck down on Zhang Yang's back. In his view, Han Chuanbao's order was akin to a sacred decree

Shao Weijiang slowly put down the phone at the station police station, and a name quickly surfaced in his mind... Wang Zhongke. It must be said that Wang Zhongke is indeed an old police officer, now forty years old, having joined the force just two terms later than Shao Weijiang. Once a person reaches Shao Weijiang's position, the first consideration is not where the fault lies, but rather who is behind the parties involved. Behind Zhang Yang is County Party Secretary Li Changyu, who has clearly indicated his stance to Shao Weijiang. Wang Zhongke, on the other hand, has no backing. Shao Weijiang's only concern is that, after all, they are part of the police system, and he cannot show too much weakness to Li Changyu. However, upon further reflection, it is almost a well-known fact that Li Changyu is about to be promoted to the city. If the outcome of today's handling does not satisfy him, their future relationship may become difficult. Everyone knows that Li Changyu is a person who holds grudges; such a person, even if they cannot become friends, is someone no one wishes to have as an enemy. Shao Weijiang is only forty-one this year, holding the administrative rank of deputy director, and he still hopes to advance further, making his relationship with Li Changyu particularly important.

Liu Haitao pondered for a moment: "Actually, there isn't any. Zhang Yang called me on the pager. Initially, I didn't want to trouble you, but the director of the police station, whose surname is Wang, said that even if the municipal party secretary came, it would be of no use. He insisted on enforcing the law impartially, and then he hung up the phone. After considering it, I thought it would be best to consult Secretary Li's opinion on this matter."

On Sunday evening, the interns returning home gradually made their way back to the dormitory. Zhang Yang arrived at the dormitory, and Chen Guowei was already there, sitting at a table with several classmates from Jiangcheng, drinking together. These individuals came from well-off families and usually formed a small group. Although Zhang Yang shared a dormitory with Chen Guowei, no one was willing to engage with him. However, due to several recent events, Chen Guowei's impression of Zhang Yang had changed, and he took the initiative to invite Zhang Yang to join them at the table.

However, due to several recent events, Chen Guowei's impression of Zhang Yang had changed, and he took the initiative to invite Zhang Yang to join them at the table.

Zuo Xiaoqing took a step forward and stood shoulder to shoulder with Zhang Yang: "You are the police, so you should know whether unlawfully restricting someone’s freedom violates national law"

Thinking calmly, my mother Xu Lihua is indeed pitiful. Following that scoundrel Zhao Tiesheng, she has probably not lived a good life for these decades. Remembering my mother's gray hair and haggard face, Zhang Yang couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart, secretly resolving to bring his mother and sister out to live with him in a few days, completely severing ties with Zhao Tiesheng's family.

Is this Xiao Liu? I am Zhang Yang

A few security personnel outside heard the commotion inside and rushed in one after another in a state of panic

Zuo Xiaoqing knew that Zhang Yang was someone who feared neither heaven nor earth. If she did not step in to advise him, there was no telling what trouble he might cause. In today's society governed by the rule of law, if things escalated, it would not be beneficial for him either. Zuo Xiaoqing walked over and said, "Zhang Yang, just let it go"

Han Chuanbao continued to scold relentlessly: "Damn it, what is this? Dare to show off in front of me, beat him!"

Zuo Xiaoqing let out a terrified scream

On the surface, Han Chuanbao appeared arrogant and domineering, but in reality, he was someone who bullied the weak and feared the strong. When he saw Zhang Yang decisively take down two opponents, he was so frightened that he stood there in a daze. It was only when Zhang Yang charged towards him that he swung his fist at Zhang Yang, but Zhang Yang caught his fist in one swift motion. With a clockwise twist, there was a crack, and Han Chuanbao's right arm was dislocated by Zhang Yang, causing him to scream in agony like a slaughtered pig

More than ten interns arrived at the station's security department, clamoring to get in. A robust and dark-skinned security guard emerged from inside. Judging by his attire, he was likely from the security department. Upon seeing so many students, he immediately became angry and shouted, "What are you doing? Do you want to gather a crowd and cause trouble?" In the early 1990s, the general public was still quite wary of the term 'gathering a crowd to cause trouble.' Although there were quite a few of them, most were inexperienced students. When confronted with such a shout, they all fell silent.

Han Chuanbao widened his eyes and said: "What do you mean by that? Who is retaliating against you? What is your name? I still can't believe it; you are so brazen about evading the fare."

Wang Zhongke was drenched in cold sweat, looking up at Zuo Xiaoqing from a perspective of admiration. This young woman was quite extraordinary. Throughout the entire time, Zuo Xiaoqing had not mentioned anything about the events of the evening. A mere phone call had already revealed her profound connections to Wang Zhongke, and this might only be the tip of the iceberg. She did not pursue Wang Zhongke's intentions, as a mere small station chief was not worthy of her invoking the power of the city police chief. A mere phone call had already revealed her profound connections to Wang Zhongke, and this might only be the tip of the iceberg. She did not pursue Wang Zhongke's intentions, as a mere small station chief was not worthy of her invoking the power of the city police chief.

Wang Zhongke discerned from the number that it should be a phone number from Jiang City. He signaled to a nearby officer, who dialed the number. The officer appeared momentarily stunned and then looked at Wang Zhongke with some confusion: "City Bureau... Director Tian's phone..."

Zhang Yang smiled

Xiaoqing! What brings you to call so late?

Another security personnel sensed the danger and rushed forward with a rubber baton, only to be knocked down to the ground by Zhang Yang with a sweeping kick

Wang Zhongke was taken aback. From the way Zuo Xiaoqing was dressed and spoke, he could tell that this young girl likely did not come from an ordinary family. Having worked in the police system for many years, he possessed an exceptionally keen sense for various cases. He was well aware of Han Chuanbao's character; this young man often wielded his limited authority to dominate the area around the long-distance bus station. Moreover, he had a lecherous tendency, with incidents of harassing female passengers occurring from time to time. Today's incident was likely a result of this behavior. To be honest, Wang Zhongke held a deep-seated disdain for Han Chuanbao, this spoiled rich kid. If it weren't for the favor he owed to Han's father, Wang Zhongke would not have intervened on his behalf.

The security department of the bus station is a room with an inner and outer area. Outside, five staff members are gathered around the stove watching television. They have long been accustomed to such disputes. Upon seeing Zhang Yang enter, two security personnel also stood up.

Hong Ling angrily interrupted him, saying: "How can you be like this? We have just been robbed, and you treat us as targets for retaliation?"

Hong Ling was indeed taken aback as the situation escalated, and her eloquence found no room for expression.

Zhang Yang scoffed and laughed: "Go cool off somewhere else, stop making things uncomfortable for yourself. This brat tried to scheme against me first, so am I supposed to just let him hit me?"

Zuo Xiaoqing and Hong Ling were originally victims, but the trouble arose because Zuo Xiaoqing was beautiful. Upon seeing her, Han Chuanbao immediately had ulterior motives and, under the pretext of ticket evasion, invited the two young girls to the security department of the passenger transport office, where he was currently shamelessly trying to flirt with them

Han Chuanbao's head was getting closer and closer to the stove, and the scorching heat from the charcoal made him sweat profusely. He could even smell the scent of his hair burning, which frightened him so much that his voice changed: "Kid, do you know who I am..."

Shao Weijiang promptly stated that he would immediately look into this matter

Wang Rui was aware of the situation and immediately went to the county people's hospital. Unfortunately, today is Sunday, and most administrative departments are not in operation. The security officer on duty in the security department was also not enthusiastic about the matter concerning the intern, so he had no choice but to return and seek help from his classmates

Liu Haitao was stunned for quite a while before recalling who Zhang Yang was, the one related to his grandmother. How dare you call me Little Liu! Liu Haitao was so angry that he nearly hung up the phone, but he quickly remembered that Secretary Li had a rather special relationship with this Zhang Yang. Although a driver held a lower status than a leader, there were still many considerations to take into account. Liu Haitao suppressed his anger and quietly adjusted his emotions: "Zhang Yang, do you need something from me?"

It is me

Having thoroughly considered the pros and cons of the situation, Shao Weijiang immediately picked up the phone, ready to dial the station's police station. However, he quickly changed his mind. Since he lived not far from the long-distance bus station, and given that Li Changyu had personally made the call, he felt it was necessary to demonstrate sufficient seriousness regarding this matter by going there in person.

Wang Zhongke quietly calculated in his heart that just the charge of assaulting a state worker would be enough to get this kid locked up. He coldly glanced at Zhang Yang, confident in the lethal power of his gaze. Unfortunately, he found no trace of fear in the other party's eyes. Wang Zhongke sternly commanded, "Take him back!"

China has never lacked onlookers; as soon as the commotion began, around twenty to thirty idle spectators had already gathered nearby, most of whom were employees of the agricultural machinery factory. Although Zhang Yang felt indifferent, Zhao Jing was already embarrassed to the point of wanting to disappear, as family shame should not be aired in public. It seems that tonight's incident will once again become the topic of conversation at the agricultural machinery factory for the next few days.

Liu Haitao muttered to himself that even trivial matters required contacting Secretary Li. If Secretary Li were to find out, he would undoubtedly scold him again. He inquired about who was handling the matter and had a plan in mind.

Liu Haitao is indeed unfortunate. After a whole day of busy work on Sunday, he went to bed early after dinner. Just as he was doing warm-up exercises with his wife, the pager started beeping again, which made his wife, Liu Mei, extremely angry, wishing she could throw the pager at him.

A lazy voice suddenly emerged from the crowd: "What the hell do you think you are? Why are you showing off?"

Wang Zhongke's legs were soft and lacked any strength; if this continued, he would likely collapse to the ground with a thud.

Sun Chuanfu became agitated, quickly locating the speaker from the crowd. Zhang Yang separated from his companions and approached, pointing at Sun Chuanfu's nose: "What right does a mere gatekeeper have to control others? Who granted you this authority?"

Zhang Yang had been in this era for several days and had come to understand some of the matters at hand. One thing he could ascertain was that the Security Department had no authority to detain travelers. He impatiently lifted his head and said, "Stop the damn nonsense and release them immediately!" The reason he dared to be so assertive was that he now had confidence; if necessary, he could just call Secretary Li of the County Committee. He truly believed that he could handle this situation.

Zhang Yang stood up with a smile, intuitively sensing that his phone was already having an effect

The sound of Shao Weijiang's reprimand has already come from outside: "What is going on?" No one dared to meet Shao Weijiang's gaze

Zhang Yang claimed he had something to attend to and wanted to go out for a walk. However, just as he reached the door, it was suddenly pushed open with great force. In came Wang Rui, an intern from Jiangcheng Medical University, who exclaimed, "This is bad! Hong Ling and Zuo Xiaoqing have been detained by the station's security department. We need to go check it out quickly." He was also one of Zuo Xiaoqing's many admirers, so he was more anxious than others when something happened to her.

After giving Zhao Lijun a good beating, Zhang Yang felt much lighter in spirit. After parting ways with Zhao Jing, he hummed a little tune, walked back to the dormitory with a spring in his step, and thought to himself that one cannot be too low-key. If you are low-key, people will think you are easy to bully. Even the likes of Zhao Tiesheng and his son, who are nothing but street ruffians, dare to show off in front of him. It's infuriating; such people are everywhere. In the future, when Zhang becomes successful, he will crush all of you bastards.

Just as Zhang Yang was about to lose his temper, Wang Zhongke spoke up: "It is reasonable to let him make a phone call; in such matters, it is essential to first inform the family." Wang Zhongke's display of understanding stemmed from his own reasons. Both Zhang Yang and Zuo Xiaoqing were not from ordinary families, as evidenced by their attire. Zhang Yang's audacity to cause a scene in the security department indicated that he likely had substantial backing. Zuo Xiaoqing and Hong Ling had their belongings stolen on a long-distance bus from Jiangcheng to Chunyang, and it was possible that they were the children of some official from Jiangcheng. Chunyang was merely a county of Jiangcheng, and in Wang Zhongke's view, any official from Jiangcheng held a significant rank. Although he leaned towards Han Chuanbao in his heart, he still had to maintain an appearance of fairness and justice, upholding the esteemed image of law enforcement personnel. Moreover, it was necessary to thoroughly investigate Zhang Yang's true background so that he could consider how to handle the matter.

I saw Zhang Yang dragging Han Chuanbao by the hair towards the stove

Zuo Xiaoqing did not show any fear: "On what basis do you act? Even if you want to arrest someone, you must adhere to legal procedures. Is what you are doing not a violation of the law?"

Zhang Yang pointed at Han Chuanbao's nose and scolded, "You better compensate my friend for the losses immediately, otherwise you can forget about that arm of yours"

Zhang Yang has never been one to act recklessly; he clearly distinguishes the gravity of situations. If he were to act without considering the consequences, the current state of the three individuals in the Security Department would be far more dire. Zhang Yang is also aware of what the golden police badge on his cap signifies. The longer he spends in this era, the deeper his understanding of everything around him becomes, and a faint smile plays on his face: "May I make a phone call to my family first?"

Both individuals were taken aback upon seeing that Zhang Yang had also been brought in

8736928

Wang Zhongke was furious; what on earth happened tonight? Do I look like an easy target? Everyone seems to want to call someone to suppress me. I haven't seen that driver of Secretary Li come over in this little while. Wang Zhongke believed that Zhang Yang was likely deliberately invoking Secretary Li's name to intimidate him. A person's patience has its limits, and our Director Wang is no exception. When he felt that his authority was being continuously challenged by a few juniors, the anger in his heart became uncontrollable. With a stern face, he coldly snorted, "No, take them all back to the police station!" A person's patience has its limits, and our Director Wang is no exception. When he felt that his authority was being continuously challenged by a few juniors, the anger in his heart became uncontrollable. With a stern face, he coldly snorted, "No, take them all back to the police station!"

Zhang Yang was also slightly taken aback. While it was one thing for others to encounter trouble, he could not ignore the situation involving Zuo Xiaoqing. He followed Wang Rui and his group towards the Chunyuan long-distance bus station. The cause of the incident was quite simple. When Zuo Xiaoqing and Hong Ling were returning to Chunyuan by long-distance bus, they ran into some trouble. The two girls were targeted by a thief on the bus and were so engrossed in their conversation that they only realized their wallets were missing when they got off. To make matters worse, they also lost their bus tickets. Naturally, without tickets, they encountered some difficulties at the ticket inspection point. Hong Ling's temper was already somewhat spoiled, and with the loss of their belongings, her mood was extremely poor. She ended up having a loud argument with the ticket inspector, which led to them being taken to the station's security department.

Zhang Yang leaned over and said, "It was me causing trouble, come and handcuff me!"

Upon hearing others speak to this extent, Zuo Xiaoqing quietly advised Zhang Yang once more. Zhang Yang, having regained his face and vented his anger, was just in time to step down the stairs. Although Zhang Shenyi had only recently arrived in modern society, he understood that the feudal era had long since passed. We are now in the primary stage of socialism, and our new China is a society governed by the rule of law. Only then did Zhang Yang release Han Chuanbao's head, who, clutching his right arm and groaning incessantly, hurriedly fled to the side.

The other interns did not possess the same confidence as Zhang Yang. Seeing him come here and still display such assertiveness, they couldn't help but secretly admire him. However, there was also some concern; if Zhang Yang angered someone, this matter would likely become even more difficult to resolve. Nevertheless, most of these interns were young and impassioned, and they began to loudly echo Zhang Yang: "Release him, release him immediately!"

The four police officers who arrived were all acquainted with Han Chuanbao. Due to the jurisdiction they served, they often interacted with each other, and their relationship was more than just familiar. The team leader, Wang Zhongke, the director of the police station, had a particularly close relationship with Han Chuanbao's father, Han Weizheng. Upon hearing that someone was openly assaulting staff at the passenger transport company's security department, Wang Zhongke's anger flared up instantly. This is unacceptable; we are in a society governed by the rule of law. How can anyone dare to assault law enforcement personnel? Do they not respect the law?

Sun Chuanfu found himself in a bit of a dilemma; this matter was not solely up to him to decide. However, he understood that the Security Department indeed did not have the authority to restrict anyone's freedom. It was true that they were somewhat in the wrong regarding this issue. Their head of security, Han Chuanbao, was the beloved son of Han Weizheng, the manager of the passenger transport company. He had been promoted to head of security just three years after returning from the military, which was certainly related to having a powerful father. Nevertheless, this young man had not hesitated to tarnish his father's reputation, as he had become a bully at the bus station, effectively establishing himself as a tyrant at the long-distance bus terminal.

Zhang Yang briefly recounted what had just happened, and finally added, "Xiao Liu, please help me get in touch with Secretary Li."

Sun Chuanfu looked at Zhang Yang lying motionless on the ground, not daring to strike again. He crouched down and reached out to check Zhang Yang's breath, only to find no response at all. His face immediately changed, and he stammered, "Section Chief... he..." Before he could finish his sentence, Zhang Yang suddenly sat up, his forehead aimed directly at Sun Chuanfu's nose, forcefully charging forward. At such a close distance, Sun Chuanfu had no way to evade, and with a scream, he fell to the ground, covering his nose with both hands, blood gushing like a fountain from between his fingers.

The unique intuition of Officer Tian Qinglong made him sense that something was amiss. He lowered his voice and asked, "Xiaoqing, is there something bothering you? Is someone bullying you?"

Wang Zhongke had completely surrendered in his heart, and he held no resentment towards Zuo Xiaoqing; instead, he felt only gratitude. If she wanted to deal with him, all she had to do was reveal a little bit of information, and he could easily imagine his fate. Tian Qinglong was a figure of absolute authority in the police system of Jiangcheng. If he wanted to target Wang, he wouldn't even need to lift a finger.

What is going on? How do you handle these issues? They are just minor matters; why make things difficult for these students? Wang Suo and Zhang Yang are the nephews of Secretary Li. If Secretary Li finds out about this, it might not be good.

Shao Weijiang felt a chill deep within, paralyzed. After all, a leader is a leader. Just look at the eloquence of this person; with a single phrase about youthful exuberance, they completely erased the mistakes of their own relatives. Who would be dealt with severely? It would certainly be that small director who did not give him face. Shao Weijiang was furious inside, yet he dared not express it. He still wanted to say a few good words, but on Li Changyu's side, the call had already been disconnected.

Li Changyu said slowly, "I think this matter might also be Zhang Yang's fault, but he is still a student and inevitably a bit impetuous. Lao Shao, you need to investigate thoroughly. Regardless of who made the mistake, they must be dealt with strictly, do not give me any face"

Han Chuanbao saw the personnel from the police station arriving, and he immediately straightened his back, feeling much more confident. He ran up to Wang Zhongke, covering his injured shoulder, and said: "Director Wang, it was him. Not only did he evade fare, but he also assaulted the security staff. Look... he even broke my arm."

Liu Haitao currently has only one thought in his mind: he wants to meet this arrogant little director and see who exactly is not giving Liu any face.

Threat! Anyone can hear that this is an outright threat, yet Wang Zhongke felt a bit intimidated by Zuo Xiaoqing's words. It is no wonder, as Zuo Xiaoqing's demeanor when she said this was overwhelmingly assertive, and the confidence in her beautiful eyes was impossible to disguise. People have a natural reaction to danger, and the response of a police officer is even more acute than that of others. Wang Zhongke began to sense that the situation was becoming increasingly complicated. However, having reached this point, he could not allow himself to lose face by letting Zuo Xiaoqing make that call. He snorted coldly and said, "Give me the phone number, and I will notify your family!"

Only upon answering the phone did I realize that the person on the other end was my superior. I lacked the ability to demote them, and the resentment I had felt instantly dissipated. With a smile, I said: "So it is Secretary Li. What instructions do you have?"

Li Changyu furrowed his brow. Having fought in the political arena for many years, he immediately detected the exaggeration in Liu Haitao's words; Xiao Liu was deliberately provoking his anger. However, upon further reflection, it was clear that this young director was showing him disrespect; otherwise, why would Xiao Liu invoke his own identity when this matter remained unresolved? It had escalated to the point of requiring his intervention. After a moment of silence, Li Changyu gently said, "You need not concern yourself with this matter; I will handle it"

Fortunately, Zuo Xiaoqing did not reveal everything; she merely said it was nothing and then inquired about Tian Qinglong's high blood pressure before hanging up the phone

Wang Zhongke silently pleaded, hoping that Zuo Xiaoqing would never reveal what happened tonight

Zuo Xiaoqing chuckled softly: "I actually forgot, really, when work gets busy, I forget everything. I suddenly wanted to have a chat with my third aunt, nothing else."

Two police officers strode over, and Luo Xiaoqing bravely stood in front of Zhang Yang: "I will not allow you to take him away!"

The bravery displayed by Zuo Xiaoqing moved Zhang Yang to some extent, while Hong Ling stood by in astonishment. It was the first time she had seen a boy whom the usually gentle and graceful Zuo Xiaoqing would go to such lengths to protect. From her perspective as an observer, she keenly sensed something.

At that moment, the noise from the students outside came in. Han Chuanbao saw that the commotion was growing louder and secretly cursed Sun Chuanfu for being a fool, unable to control even a few students. He cursed under his breath and stepped outside, pointing at the students: "Whoever causes trouble again will be handcuffed!"

Who is Shao Weijiang? The fact that Li Changyu personally made a phone call indicates that their relationship is certainly extraordinary. Does driver Xiao Liu not have this capability? The implication is rather subtle; upon a moment's reflection, Shao Weijiang immediately understands the meaning behind the words. It must be that these short-sighted individuals failed to show proper respect, and now Li Changyu has come to seek accountability.

Sun Chuanfu opened his mouth to speak, but was interrupted by Zhang Yang, who rejected his words: "The police and the security personnel can still be distinguished. I tell you, release our classmates immediately, or you can expect to face the consequences."

Wang Zhongke did not respond to Zuo Xiaoqing's questioning, his brows slightly furrowing: "Take him away!" The tone, devoid of any room for negotiation, clearly indicated his unequivocal support for Han Chuanbao. Even adhering to principles of fairness and justice, it was evident that Han Chuanbao's arm was in trouble, and Sun Chuanfu's nose was still bleeding. If there were signs of a fracture in the nasal bridge, it could be classified as a minor injury, and this young man would have to pay a heavy price for his impulsiveness.

Wang Zhongke saw Shao Weijiang appear, and his mind went blank, paralyzed. What day is it today? Why didn’t I check the calendar before going out? While Wang Zhongke wallowed in self-pity, he also began to resent Han Chuanbao. It was all this bastard's fault. If you didn't have a crush on that pretty girl, could such a big mess have happened? Do you think your father is impressive? Your father is just a manager at a passenger transport company; there are many people with more power than him. If you want to die, go die by yourself. Why drag me into this? It’s all this bastard's fault. If you didn’t have a crush on that pretty girl, could such a big mess have happened? Do you think your father is impressive?

The hatred in Wang Zhongke's heart!

Zhang Yang unexpectedly did not dodge or evade, allowing the blow to strike him, and then his body went limp and fell to the ground

A yellow-haired girl actually dared to teach him a lesson. Wang Zhongke let out a cold laugh and proclaimed with an air of arrogance, "Here, I am the law"

Zhang Yang ignored him, squinting his eyes disdainfully at Sun Chuanfu: "If you want to go in, then go in. Am I supposed to be afraid of you?" He stepped into the security office, and upon seeing that someone had entered, Sun Chuanfu abandoned the thought of using the rubber baton, casting a stern glance at the group of students: "Get away from here, don't hurt yourselves."

"Your third aunt has gone traveling, didn't you know?" Tian Qinglong's loud voice could be heard by everyone.

My wife just got a bit damp, and being suspended in mid-air, naturally, some thoughts crossed her mind. She grabbed a pillow and angrily threw it at Liu Haitao, saying: "If you leave, don't come back. Go sleep with your Secretary Li!"

Han Chuanbao realized that he was facing a tough opponent today. After all, this young man had been in society for many years and understood the principle that a good man does not suffer immediate losses. He said with a trembling voice: "Brother... brother... let's talk things over... is it possible for us to sit down and discuss any issues?"
