The way Qin Fang spoke was quite impressive, not at all like he was pretending.

Xiao Dao and the others were slightly stunned, then they remembered that when Qin Fang had rescued them, it seemed that his men had once thrown some minister into a ravine and beaten him up.

As a result, they were rescued, and now Qin Fang was sitting here completely intact, dining, drinking, chatting, and shooting the breeze with them…

What did this indicate?

Qin Fang must also have a pretty powerful background!

Although university students were still in their ivory towers, they were already half-stepping into society, especially in a place like Capital City. With so many officials' and rich second generations around, they naturally understood these social intricacies better than those from smaller cities.

Now that they thought about it, and heard Qin Fang say so, Xiao Dao and the others finally put their hearts at ease…

Qin Fang's words naturally weren't only heard by Xiao Dao and his group; the beautiful teacher, Chen Pangzi, and Xiao Chuan also heard them, but each reacted differently.

"Hmph, just you wait…"

For instance, Chen Pangzi gave Qin Fang a disdainful look, his jowls quivering as if he were quite displeased, but he also didn't believe that Qin Fang really had any background.

Xiao Chuan was the timid type; he was scared by Qin Fang. Initially, seeing Chen Pangzi could rely on something, he felt smug for a moment, but seeing Qin Fang's fearless attitude, he was no longer sure and just had to squat obediently on the side.

The most intense reaction belonged to the beautiful teacher who was unaware, sitting right next to Su Yuan, and at this moment, the two of them were also discussing softly.

"Su Yuan, is he… really okay?"

Chu Beauty asked Su Yuan in a very low voice. They had chatted quietly for a while, and she also found out that Qin Fang was not a student at Capital City University, which made her feel much relieved.

But seeing Chen Pangzi calling the police to arrest someone, she became somewhat worried, taking out a cellphone from her purse as if she wanted to call someone.

While she was hesitating, she heard the conversation between Qin Fang and Xiao Dao. While admiring Xiao Dao's loyalty and righteousness, she was also sweating for Qin Fang.

Not being from Capital City, but offending the local bullies in Capital City, if his connections weren't strong enough, he could suffer a great deal, especially since Qin Fang might be formidable in a fight, but that's not much use against the police, who could easily frame him for assaulting an officer…

And everyone knows, the police in Celestial Empire don't carry a good reputation. Once caught in the station, with Chen Pangzi pulling strings in the background, a beating could be severe, and worse, it could turn into another tragedy of "hide and seek"!

"It's okay, don't worry..."

Su Yuan was no longer the naive girl who didn't know anything. She had stayed several days in the Chang'an Club, enjoying the extremely satisfying services and heard quite a few rumors about this club…

Although she still hadn't figured out exactly what Qin Fang's background was, she knew it must be very impressive, as some "servers" in the Chang'an Club would say—"Anyone who could stay in the Jiazi Building is a bigshot who can traverse Capital City unhindered!"

Just these things, she knew herself but didn't share much with others, not even with Li Yuerong who she had gotten along with quite happily these last few days. She only revealed a little bit.

As for the current beautiful teacher, they had only just met; they weren't familiar to that extent yet, so of course, she wouldn't say much, just hinting at the end…

Speaking of which, the police response time in Celestial Empire has always been a major grievance among the public, truly frustrating. It might be days without any information from today's report… Even if asked again, they could easily excuse it with "too many cases" or "lack of personnel".

After all, what really happened, only the police themselves knew; how would ordinary people know…

But if the case involved officials, wealthy merchants, privileged young masters, and so on, then the response time was incredibly fast. For example, as soon as Director Xing borrowed Chen Pangzi's phone, he immediately arranged for personnel to be dispatched.

He promised five minutes, but in less than four minutes, the sound of police sirens was heard outside the hotel, and then they saw five or six policemen in uniform rushing in swiftly…

"Director Xing, here…"

Chen Pangzi, seeing the police arrive, led by the familiar Director Xing, immediately shouted over, and a group of policemen quickly came over.

Director Xing was a middle-aged policeman in his forties. At this age and still just a head of a small police station, his life was basically set; it wasn't likely to make any further breakthroughs.

At least from the people he curried favor, it was clear: others would curry favor with government officials or corporate executives, but he curried favor with school leaders. Even with Chen Pangzi's department-level rank, he couldn't help him get promoted…

Of course, everyone has their ambitions, and Qin Fang was merely expressing his thoughts internally, as he wouldn't dare to say too much out loud, which was ultimately meaningless.

Director Xing initially whispered with Chen Pangzi at the side, and Chen Pangzi pointed at Qin Fang, who was sitting in the main seat, clearly targeting him primarily.

Afterward, Director Xing did not rush to arrest anyone; instead, he arranged for helpers to assist Tanaka to his feet. The ambulance had already arrived, so they took him to the hospital for treatment first.

Then, the officers under his command also recorded the accounts of several witnesses and summarized them to Director Xing, giving him a general understanding of the entire case.

Director Xing did not seem to be the kind of person who only flattered others. In the short time since his arrival, he had already inquired about the general situation.

Perhaps it was the Japanese who initiated the conflict, but now Tanaka was lying motionless on the ground, seemingly having passed out, with foam still at the corner of his mouth... He appeared quite pitiful.

In contrast, Qin Fang had not a single scratch and was still freely holding a beauty and drinking wine... This scene immediately made Director Xing frown.

People say that the police are mighty and can arrest anyone they choose... That's just what ordinary folks think, but many policemen feel quite miserable, especially those in the Capital City, who are truly the fighters among the miserable, the absolute scapegoats!

It's because there are so many influential people in the Capital City, especially the younger generation, who tend to be impulsive and come from powerful families. This marks the beginning of the hardships for the police.

Seeing Qin Fang's demeanor, Director Xing noted it, although his clothes looked simple, Qin Fang seemed to have an air of arrogance, similar to those privileged young masters and sons of officials he had encountered.

Unfortunately, the Haidian District, where Capital City University is located, is the most densely populated area of universities in Capital City. With more universities, there are more beauties, and these young masters and privileged sons like to flock to this area, chasing girls and often causing trouble. That's why Director Xing, at the age of forty, was still just a low-ranking station chief: having been the scapegoat several times and standing on the wrong side didn't give him a chance for promotion...

"Sir, you are suspected of assaulting a foreign visitor, please come with us!"

Regardless, now that Qin Fang had been involved in an incident, and it also involved Chen Pangzi, Director Xing had no choice but to intervene... This was not because he wanted to ingratiate himself with Chen Pangzi, but because Chen Pangzi wouldn't have reached his position by himself; he had connections, and this was why Director Xing came to assist...

"Arrest me? On what grounds..."

Qin Fang still sat there calmly, seemingly completely ignoring the group of police officers facing him...

"Many people at the scene can prove that he hit someone; please cooperate with us..."

Director Xing spoke in a tone that was neither humble nor arrogant.

"Of course, I am very cooperative with your work, so I have prepared a bit too!"

On this note, Qin Fang actually found this man to be quite decent. Although his tone was still somewhat forceful, it was obviously much more polite than the way he treated Chen Pangzi.

During this conversation, Qin Fang finally took out his mobile phone, leisurely looking for a phone number, mumbling under his breath in a voice too low for the others to hear.

"Director Xing, what's the use of talking so much? Just take him away quickly..."

Chen Pangzi had no patience to wait for Qin Fang to dally there; seeing Director Xing hesitating to make the arrest, he couldn't wait and burst out shouting.

"I'll do it myself; give me the handcuffs..."

Unexpectedly, Chen Pangzi was not just arrogantly blustering. He actually snatched a pair of handcuffs from a nearby police officer and was ready to cuff Qin Fang's hand that was holding the phone...

"Wait..."

Just then, Qin Fang had found the number he needed and saw Chen Pangzi hurriedly approaching with the handcuffs, his eyes flickering with an indiscernible hint of color.

This was truly a case of natural disasters being more forgivable than manmade ones...

Originally, Qin Fang was annoyed by Chen Pangzi, but he couldn't do much about him. However, this act of his merely provided Qin Fang with an excuse to deal with him.

"You should think carefully now. The police handcuffing me, whether I really committed a crime or not, at least they have the authority... But who are you to have any right to handcuff me?"

With such a perfect opportunity, how could Qin Fang let it slip?

So while it seemed like Qin Fang was resisting, almost every statement he made was provoking Chen Pangzi, urging him to act and cuff him, which would make things much easier afterward.

"Damn it, I'll just handcuff you. What about it?"

Chen Pangzi was clearly infuriated by Qin Fang, who had not only disregarded him entirely before, beaten up his guest, but even ignored his presence. He had even pulled away the lady teacher Chen Pangzi had arranged, and now topped it off with a "who do you think you are," making Chen Pangzi utterly furious.(To be continued.
