Moyong Xing's Outburst

Mo Yongxing's arrogant words made the police officers wide-eyed. Who was this fool who didn't give face even when the director personally apologized and unlocked the handcuffs? Even if he had connections with the county mayor, it was still disrespectful. However, three people present were not surprised: Qin Yu, Deputy Director Liang, and Wang Ming. Qin Yu knew that the Mo family had some background, while the other two thought that knowing the big boss made it normal to ignore a county police director. They hoped for the situation to escalate further. If the director managed to settle things quietly, their efforts would be in vain.

Director Zhang's old face showed a hint of embarrassment. How could he, as a director, be so powerless? But he was nearing retirement, and although he had connections with the county mayor, Ren Yuangpeng was the trusted confidant of the county party secretary. Caught in the middle, he became a punching bag.

"County Mayor Hao is here!"

Just as Zhang More Liang and Mo Yongxing were at a standoff, commotion arose at the door. The crowd voluntarily made way for a dignified man who walked in swiftly. It was Hao Jianguo, with Secretary Wang by his side.

When Hao Jianguo saw Qin Yu, a look of apology flashed across his face. His gaze then fell on the handcuffs on the table, and his expression turned grave. He bypassed Ren Yuangpeng and Deputy Director Liang, reaching out to shake Qin Yu's hand, sincerely saying, "Mr. Qin, I'm truly sorry for the inconvenience caused to you. I will make sure to address this matter properly."

"I don't mind personally, but I was unjustly arrested without evidence and labeled as an arsonist, not to mention the charge of assaulting an officer. Is the police station under the control of someone in particular?"

Hao Jianguo's face completely darkened upon hearing this. He turned around, seeing Zhang More Liang still holding the keys without moving, and reprimanded him, "Zhang More Liang, how can you, as a director, behave like this? Arresting someone without evidence and treating them like a criminal. Is the police station a bandit's den?"

"County Mayor, I am already handling this matter. I will definitely provide Mr. Qin with an explanation," Zhang More Liang, his forehead already sweating, replied. Being a retiring director caught between two powerful figures in the county was an immense pressure. Ren Yuangpeng's actions were truly frustrating. Couldn't he let him retire in peace before stirring up trouble? Now he had to bear the county mayor's anger.

Seeing the displeased look from Zhang More Liang, Ren Yuangpeng felt helpless. He knew that Zhang More Liang wouldn't shield him from the county mayor's wrath. Moreover, they did assault the officers in the police station, and if both sides insisted on their positions, no one would benefit from it. Reluctantly, he spoke up, "County Mayor, I was wrong in this matter. I brought them in for investigation without evidence, but it is a fact that they assaulted the officers at the police station."

Ren Yuangpeng had no choice but to speak. He knew that Zhang More Liang wouldn't take the county mayor's anger for him. Fortunately, the other side had also assaulted officers. If both sides stubbornly refused to back down, it wouldn't benefit anyone.

"Hehe, assaulting an officer? Let me tell you, forget about assaulting an officer. I can even dismantle this police station. What can you do to me?"

Mo Yongxing finally erupted, without hesitation this time, immediately dialing a phone number on his mobile.

"Hello, Uncle Li, it's Mo Yongxing. I'm at the police station, and they want to charge me with assaulting an officer!"

After making this phone call, all eyes once again turned to Mo Yongxing. Previously, everyone thought that Qin Yu had the highest backing in this situation. However, judging by Mo Yongxing's attitude and boldness in front of the county mayor and the police chief, it seemed that he also had influential connections.

"Mr. Qin, who is this person?" Hao Jianguo asked Qin Yu softly. Qin Yu whispered in his ear, "He's a friend of mine from a prominent family."

Hearing Qin Yu's response, Hao Jianguo maintained a calm expression, but his mind was already spinning. He had limited control over the police station, with few of his own people, and the county party secretary exerting strong influence. Ren Yuangpeng often acted against his instructions. If the young man who just made the phone call truly had significant connections, this incident could become an opportunity for him to gain control over the police station.

Ring, ring!

While everyone was contemplating the content of Mo Yongxing's phone call, two mobile phones rang simultaneously. Zhang More Liang and Hao Jianguo both took out their phones.

"Secretary Liu, yes, I'm currently at the police station. Okay, understood. I will handle it."

"Hello, Director Wei, it's me. Yes, yes, I know what to do now."

Compared to Hao Jianguo's tone during the phone call, Zhang More Liang appeared almost hunched over, answering the phone with a flattering tone. The only thing they had in common was the slight trace of awe in their eyes as they looked at Mo Yongxing.

"County Mayor, Director Wei from the Municipal Bureau just called. He has delegated full authority to the county to handle today's incident."

"Well, Secretary Liu also called me just now. He expressed strong anger over some comrades in our police station arbitrarily arresting people without evidence. He entrusted me to represent the county in expressing our stance. This matter must be dealt with seriously. Those comrades who disregard rules and regulations in their work must be severely punished and not tolerated."

As Hao Jianguo spoke, Ren Yuangpeng's face turned ashen, no longer displaying his previous attitude. Being the deputy director of the Public Security Bureau, he had a keen political sense. The instructions from Director Wei of the Municipal Bureau and the statement from the county party secretary indicated that he had gotten involved with someone he shouldn't have provoked.

"Sir, rest assured, we will handle this matter seriously. How about we remove the handcuffs first?"

Zhang More Liang no longer paid any attention to Ren Yuangpeng. With the director of the Municipal Bureau and the county party secretary personally intervening, Ren Yuangpeng was in trouble this time. The most important thing now was to appease the anger of the man in front of him, or else the county bureau would likely face a storm.

"No need to remove them. I'm waiting for Director Wei to come and see for himself!"

Mo Yongxing's temper flared up, refusing to give anyone face. Zhang More Liang had no choice but to seek help from Hao Jianguo. However, Hao Jianguo was also in a dilemma. The other party might not give him face either. If he was refused in front of so many people, it would damage his reputation as the county mayor.

Qin Yu glanced at the expressions of the people present and understood the situation. Ren Yuangpeng was truly in trouble this time. Sometimes, it was scary when leaders became serious. Qin Yu didn't expect the influence of Mo Yongxing's family to be so strong that a single phone call could sway the county mayor and the director of the Municipal Bureau. However, at present, there was no need to continue the commotion when the purpose had already been achieved. After all, County Mayor Hao came to help him.

"Qin Yu, let me tell you, I, Mo Yongxing, have never been humiliated like this before. This matter won't be resolved so easily."

Mo Yongxing saw Qin Yu approaching and directly placed his hands behind his back, blocking any further conversation.

"Director Zhang, come over here."

Qin Yu ignored Mo Yongxing and whispered something in Zhang More Liang's ear. The latter initially showed a frustrated expression on his face but soon glanced at Mo Yongxing, realizing something.

"Please rest assured, I will handle this matter seriously. We will directly dismiss such troublemakers from the police station."

Zhang More Liang guaranteed with a pat on his chest.

"Alright, I already told Director Zhang that someone assaulted you in the car earlier, and he assured me that it will be dealt with seriously."

Qin Yu came to Mo Yongxing's side and spoke softly.

His words hit home for Mo Yongxing. As a young master of the Mo family, who dared to slap him on the back of his head besides his own grandfather? Mo Yongxing felt aggrieved, but he couldn't express it openly. He couldn't afford to lose face.

"Give me some face and remove these handcuffs. Otherwise, it won't look good for the illustrious young master of the Mo family to be wearing handcuffs in the police station."

"Qin Yu, this time I'm giving you face. Otherwise, I'll wait for Director Wei to personally unlock these handcuffs."

Mo Yongxing's eyes shifted, but in the end, he agreed to have the handcuffs removed. With that, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. If they had really waited for Director Wei to arrive, the county bureau would have caused quite a stir.

However, the attention of some police officers had already shifted to Ren Yuangpeng, filled with sympathy. Some astute individuals discreetly distanced themselves from Ren Yuangpeng and sided with Deputy Director Liang instead.

The current situation indicated that Deputy Director Ren was in trouble. Once he fell, Deputy Director Liang was the most qualified to take over as the bureau chief. Moreover, in today's incident, Deputy Director Liang had taken the right position. Some scheming individuals were already considering whether to visit Deputy Director Liang's home tonight. During this period, they had neglected Deputy Director Liang due to the arrival of Deputy Director Ren, so now they hurried to make amends. Perhaps there was still time.

Deputy Director Liang couldn't hide his joy on his face at this moment. He had made the right gamble. This young man indeed had significant background. A single phone call alerted the county's top official and the director of the Municipal Bureau. There was no way Ren Yuangpeng could turn the situation around. Wang Ming beside him also showed excitement on his face. Seeing the envious looks from his colleagues, he felt a sense of satisfaction. When he handed the phone to Qin Yu earlier, many people looked at him as if he were a fool. But now, the facts proved that his choice was correct.
