Chapter 75 - Fate!

Recently, there have been several large-scale clashes between underground factions in Tianhai, which led to a direct order from above demanding that all the police sub-stations in Tianhai effectively manage their jurisdictions.

In the past, at this police station, only a few officers would be left on duty at night, but during these special times, all officers must stay and work overtime.

The chief of the Southern District sub-station was named Zhu Maode, a man whose appearance matched his name, with a fat face and large ears.

As the chief, he naturally had some special privileges, right!

He had just come down from a dinner function, his chubby cheeks flushed, apparently having had a bit to drink, and slightly tipsy.

His barrel-like body was clad in a spacious chief’s uniform that had been specially tailored back in the day! Thɪs chapter is updated by NovᴇlFɪre.nᴇt

It couldn’t be helped!

Our Chief Zhu’s figure really was not much different from a pig’s.

Zhu Maode entered the police station’s office and, seeing his subordinates busy taking statements, immediately waved over an officer and asked, “What are you all doing?

Where’s Captain Yao?”

Mentioning Yao Suman gave Zhu Maode a bit of a headache.

Logically, as a police officer dealing with certain situations, you should turn a blind eye, but Yao Suman was a particularly upright person, causing him, the chief, to lose face on several occasions.

But Zhu Maode couldn’t touch Yao Suman, for once, during a mission, she had saved the mayor’s son, and at that time, the mayor told Yao Suman to come to him if she ever encountered any trouble.

With the mayor backing her, Zhu Maode really didn’t dare to mess with her.

Although Zhu Maode was the chief of one of Tianhai’s district stations, compared to the mayor of Tianhai, he was nothing at all!

Perhaps with a slight effort from the mayor, Zhu Maode could be easily removed from his position as chief.

“Outrageous, truly outrageous,” Zhu Maode, still slightly drunk, roared after the officer had briefly explained the situation.

It was one thing to question someone in the interrogation room, but to turn off the surveillance cameras as well?

What kind of practice was that?

In the interrogation room, Yao Suman’s cheeks were flush with shame, and her backside burned with pain.

“How about it?

Officer Yao, do you now know how to act like a lady?” Ye Chenfeng said with a slight smile.

Yao Suman bit her lip hard, furiously retorted, “Ye Chenfeng, do you know what you’re doing?

This is assault on a police officer.

I have the right to detain you, and you might even go to prison.”

“Officer Yao, you got that wrong.

When did I assault an officer?

I just spanked you a few times, and even if you take it to the Heavenly King, it would be the same story.

Does spanking count as assault now?

Do you really want to pull down your pants in public and ask a judge to check your injuries?” Ye Chenfeng asked indifferently.

Gasping with indignation, Yao Suman stammered, “You, you, you—” but despite “you”-ing for quite a while, she failed to produce a complete sentence.

After a pause.

“Don’t let me catch my chance, or I’ll bust your nuts.” A true female tyrannosaur, even in such circumstances, her words were just as formidable.

“Captain Yao, Captain Yao, open the door for me right now,” Chief Zhu Maode shook the door impatiently from outside the interrogation room.

At times like this, Yao Suman absolutely couldn’t let anyone see her in such a disheveled state—otherwise, how could she continue to face others in the Southern District police station?

Quick to respond, she said, “Chief Zhu, I’m interrogating a suspect right now!

I’ll be out in a bit.”

“Captain Yao, you’re forcing my hand here,” Zhu Maode’s voice was clearly tinged with anger from outside the door.

“Click, click——”

The sound of keys turning in the lock could be heard, followed by the door to the interrogation room swinging open.

Zhu Maode entered and spoke, “Officer Yao, you thought by not opening the door for me, I would just….”

Zhu Maode’s words were cut short halfway through, as he had never imagined the scene before him.

He had thought Yao Suman was using violence and harsh interrogation tactics on the suspect in the room!

But instead….

This was beyond imagination.

Ye Chenfeng let go of Yao Suman’s body.

Due to the numbing lack of strength in her body, Yao Suman’s knees buckled, but fortunately, she managed to steady herself and avoid any embarrassment.

Observing the lingering flush on Yao Suman’s face and her hands reddened by the handcuffs, Zhu Debang, with his hands clasped behind his back in a commanding manner, asked, “Captain Yao, could you please explain to me what’s going on here?”

Yao Suman bit her lip tightly, and after a moment said, “Director, this suspect attacked me in the interrogation room.

I am going to charge him with assaulting an officer.”

Ye Chenfeng looked at Zhu Maode with a calm and collected gaze and asked, “May I have a word with you alone?”

Zhu Maode found Ye Chenfeng oddly familiar but couldn’t place where he had seen him before.

As a director like Zhu Maode, with his belly full of fat and brain full of schemes on how to make money, he had long forgotten about an incident three years ago.

After sizing up Ye Chenfeng with suspicion for a while, Zhu Maode finally said, “Captain Yao, you step outside.

I’ll handle the questioning from here.”

“But Director….”

Before Yao Suman could finish her protest, Zhu Maode interrupted her, “You do remember that I’m the Director, right?

So, shouldn’t you follow my orders?”

“Yes, Director,” Yao Suman said reluctantly as she walked out of the interrogation room, giving Ye Chenfeng a fierce glare as if she wanted to flay him alive!

Once Yao Suman had left, the interrogation room fell silent.

Zhu Maode asked, “Now, tell me what you wanted to say.”

Zhu Maode was an experienced player in the bureaucratic field; he could tell that Ye Chenfeng wasn’t from an ordinary family.

In his line of work, crossing the wrong person could mean the end of one’s career.

“Director Zhu, have you really forgotten the incident from three years ago?

We’ve met once back then, when I accidentally wandered into the women’s changing room at the police station,” Ye Chenfeng reminded.

“It’s you,” Zhu Maode’s eyes widened as his memory slowly became clear, and his chubby face was filled with smiles.

Although he didn’t know that Ye Chenfeng was from the Yes of Capital City, he remembered well that three years ago, the city’s Party Secretary had called the police station to bail Ye Chenfeng out.

Someone like Ye Chenfeng was indeed not someone Zhu Maode could afford to offend!

“After three years, we meet again.

It’s really fate,” Zhu Maode said, his expression brimming with excitement as if he were truly encountering an old friend after many years.
