Reborn as a Noble's Son

Chapter 721: Chapter 677: Torture for Confession_1
 

Once the middle-aged police officer finished speaking, he shot Qian Dongmao a knowing look behind Nie Zhenbang’s back. Both sides had been long-term partners, so there was an unspoken understanding between them.

In an instant, Qian Dongmao understood his partner’s intention. Regardless of whether it was a fight or an alleged car theft, the objective was the same—arrest and take them to the police station. Once there, they could manipulate the suspects as they wished.

Seeing their behavior, Nie Zhenbang couldn’t help but sneer inwardly. He was not afraid of creating a scene, on the contrary, the bigger the better. Revealing his identity at this point would take the fun out of what was to come.

After all, the Bureau of Official Vehicles only supervises the implementation of official vehicle regulations. If he revealed his identity now, the worst would be overuse of official vehicles or personal use of official vehicles. Add a fight on top of that, and the most anyone would have to do is apologize to Xiong Taishun and cover his medical expenses.

However, such a scenario would have no significant impact on Pengcheng City. Even if he wanted to interfere, he didn’t have the authority.

But if things escalated, it would be a different story. That’s why Nie Zhenbang purposely concealed his identity, hoping that it would spur them into action. The worse their actions, the more severe their disciplinary violations, and the more wronged he was, the easier it would be for him to interfere in the affairs of Pengcheng City and put pressure on Shen Yanshuo.

At this moment, Huang Xudong whispered to Luo Quan, “Luo Quan, follow Director Nie and ensure his safety. I’ll follow you guys from behind. See where you end up.”

Huang Xudong’s words pleased Nie Zhenbang immensely. Huang Xudong was a man who thought things through.

At this time, Qian Dongmao turned around and said to Nie Zhenbang, “Who here can accompany the injured to the station?”

In the end, Nie Zhenbang, Luo Quan, Xiong Taishun, and another worker got into the police car together. To ensure fairness, Wen Long also arranged for two subordinates to get in the police car while he followed behind in his modified Audi.

Pengcheng City, Donghe District, Zihuan Road Police Station

The two police cars entered one after the other. As Nie Zhenbang stepped out of the car, he could feel a change in attitude in the police.

As expected, the moment the car door opened, Qian Dongmao walked into his office with his hands behind his back. A young police officer beside him shouted, “Move. Be obedient!”

Luo Quan was clearly upset. As he got out of the car, he glared at the police officer and said, “What’s with your attitude? We’re not suspects.”

His words made the police officer pause. He looked at Nie Zhenbang and his group, sneered and said, “Just because you say you’re not a suspect, doesn’t make it so. Every suspect we bring in says they’re innocent. We’ll determine your innocence after our investigation.”

At this point, the middle-aged police officer who had been talking to Qian Dongmao came over, looking stern, and said in a deep voice, “Chen, take them to interrogation. Officer Qian and I will be right over.”

Meanwhile, inside Qian Dongmao’s office, Wen Long was sitting casually on the leather couch, smoking a cigarette. He tossed a box onto Qian Dongmao’s desk and said, “Old Qian, I’ll leave this to you. Make sure these idiots suffer.”

In Wen Long’s presence, Qian Dongmao looked as if he was a student meeting his headmaster, his face filled with a gratifying smile. He said, “Master Long, you’re too kind. Don’t worry, I know how to handle this. About the cigarettes, you can take them back. Serving Master Long doesn’t need any reward. It’s as if you’re looking down on me.”

Hearing Qian Dongmao’s words, Wen Long laughed heartily. The arrogance on his face was evident as he said, “Old Qian, take the cigarettes. I have too many at home anyway. These little gifts are nothing. In Pengcheng City, district committee secretaries, mayors, and even police chiefs want to curry favor with me. But you, Old Qian, make things easier for me. Rest assured, I’ve recommended you for the Deputy Chief position at Donghe Branch Bureau.”

Qian Dongmao felt flattered by Wen Long’s words. His face broke into a smile. Seeing such an expression on a middle-aged man’s face was rather nauseating.

Qian Dongmao did not seem to mind, and laughed, “Even Secretary Wen knows me. That’s truly exciting. Thanks to you, Master Long. With Secretary Wen being so busy, how could he find time to care about a small fry like me? Master Long, rest assured, I’ll handle this matter to your satisfaction.”

Wen Long accepted the endless flattery of Qian Dongmao with pleasure. Standing up, he gestured and said, “Old Qian, let’s go together to the interrogation room to see the kid who checked your ID. I’ve been annoyed with him since the beginning. Today, if I don’t teach him a lesson, he won’t know that the city of Pengcheng is ruled by me.”

The police station on Zihuan Road had limited resources, and there was just one interrogation room, where, at that moment, Nie Zhenbang and the other three were detained.

About ten minutes later, the door of the interrogation room opened. At the same time, the bright white light bulbs illuminated the space. The one leading the way was none other than Wen Long. Behind him was Qian Dongmao, followed by two police officers.

Upon entering, Wen Long arrogantly seated himself in front of the interrogation table, crossing his legs and propping his feet on the table, looking disdainfully at Nie Zhenbang and his companions.

“Kid, you understand now how formidable your ‘Master Long’ is.” Wen Long said casually.

Looking at Qian Dongmao, Nie Zhenbang’s face was calm. He said, “Officer Qian, what does this mean? We’re being interviewed, not being treated like criminals. Moreover, who is this man and what qualifies him to participate in the interview? You’re bending the law for personal gain and seeking personal revenge. I’ll make sure this gets reported.”

Qian Dongmao was feeling a little air-headed; given the assurance from Wen Long, he was about to become the deputy director. Although not at the city level, being deputy director of the branch office was also impressive.

While lost in his beautiful dream, he was abruptly interrupted by Nie Zhenbang. Qian Dongmao’s face darkened, and he shouted, “Report this? Who would believe you? I’m telling you, admit your crimes honestly. We’ve gathered ample evidence. You people have been rampantly committing crimes all over the country. A severe punishment by the law awaits you.”

Then, with a nod from Qian Dongmao, two police officers came forward, each carrying a rubber baton. Qian Dongmao continued, “What are your names? Admit honestly how you’ve been running around stealing cars. Explain specific tasks. Don’t leave anything out, speak everything. You’re aware of our policies: leniency for confession, severity in resistance. Don’t resist, there is no benefit in that. Don’t force me to use unconventional means.”

Unconventional means…Nie Zhenbang’s gaze swept over the two police officers on the side, a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes.

He then said in a deep voice, “Qian Dongmao. What are you trying to say, are you suggesting torture to extract a confession? You’re fabricating a confession by torture, you’ll have to bear all the consequences.”

As soon as Nie Zhenbang finished speaking, Wen Long abruptly stood up. A streak of hostility flashed in his gaze, he arrogantly declared, “Consequences, what consequences? Kid, let me tell you. In Pengcheng city, I, Wen Long, make the laws. First consider whether you can get out of here or not. Although you’re on the brink of death, you’re still so stubborn. I want to see exactly how long you can keep up this tenacity.”

With that, Wen Long suddenly launched a side kick right towards Nie Zhenbang. This person was too annoying, feigning pity and condescension as if he was some sort of savior. This irritated Wen Long beyond measure. Today, he was going to make this kid understand who was the real boss of Pengcheng city.

But the scene he anticipated, where he’d sent his opponent flying with a kick, did not occur. He only felt a severe pain in his leg, and the next moment, he fell to the ground, feeling like all his bones had disintegrated.

As he looked up, the detestable man was still watching him with a compassionate expression. This further enraged Wen Long. Struggling, he stood up, picked up a rubber baton, and shouted, “Hit him, hit him to death. These outlanders have the audacity to mess with me. If I don’t beat you to death today, I’ll take your surname.”

As Wen Long finished speaking, Luo Quan rushed in front of Nie Zhenbang and whispered, “Director, be careful, these people are lunatics.”

Nie Zhenbang just slapped Luo Quan’s shoulder lightly, smiled, and said, “They’re not that dangerous.”

After saying this, Nie Zhenbang charged forward. As the most outstanding ‘Soldier King’ of the Tiger Group, his strength couldn’t be compared to these people – it was the difference between heaven and earth. This charge was like a tiger entering a flock of sheep. Bang, bang, bang! Three sharp sounds. Wen Long and the two other police officers were stepped on by Nie Zhenbang.

Witnessing the scene, even if Qian Dongmao was stupid, he knew that things had taken a bad turn. He turned around and ran out. Throughout the police station, Qian Dongmao’s voice could be heard, “Attack on the police, there’s an attack on the police. All officers, immediate assistance required. Bring the guns from the weapons room!”
