"But when I called the police, I reported that hotel staff were attacking a customer. How did it turn into a mob causing trouble at the hotel in the mouths of the police? That's not right. Looks like these cops were waiting outside the hotel all along…"

Jiang Xiuyun scanned the multitude of police officers and suddenly arrived at a vital point: the cops clearly knew ahead of time that something would happen at the hotel today!

"Ah, Little Qi, you came at just the right time. Take these troublemakers back to the station, and I'll interrogate them personally."

Standing next to Zeng Hui, Police Station Chief Wang Zongbang, his hands behind his back, scanned Lin Zhonghua and the others. His face then turned cold as he loudly issued his orders to the police officers.

At these words, Zeng Hui and Zeng Yuhu looked at each other and grinned, satisfied expressions on their faces.

"Who dares!"

Hearing Wang Zongbang's orders, just as the police officers were about to rush forward, two voices shouted in unison. Lin Feng and Luo Yang then stepped forward simultaneously, positioning themselves protectively in front of Lin Zhonghua and his wife.

"You're the chief of the local police station? May I have your name?" Lin Feng asked coldly.

"You're asking me? Haha, my name is Wang Zongbang. What, you disturb public order and now you want to attack a national law enforcement officer? You better think carefully; the charge of assaulting a police officer is not something you can shoulder!" Wang Zongbang glared at Lin Feng and thought, Such an arrogant brat. Wait until we get back to the police station. I'll show him what's what!

"So, Director Wang, right from the start, without asking any questions or investigating further, you and your men rushed to arrest people. Isn't that inappropriate?" Lin Feng boldly questioned Wang Zongbang.

"Inappropriate? Are you teaching me how to do my job? You guys beat the hotel security personnel; I saw it with my own eyes. Are you suggesting that's not true? Hmph! On my turf, people like you must be severely punished!" Wang Zongbang gave Lin Feng a sharp look, grunting arrogantly in reply.

"How dare you! As a public servant, you make unfounded accusations against civilians and throw your weight around. You are simply unfit to be a police officer!"

Just as Wang Zongbang finished speaking, Lin Zhonghua roared. His voice carried an inherent authority, and his sudden shout startled Wang Zongbang.

"Damn it, you're yelling at me?!"

Wang Zongbang stared at Lin Zhonghua, his face filled with rage. In this district, he was a man everyone respected; no one had ever dared to yell at him, especially not in front of his subordinates.

This made Wang Zongbang absolutely livid!

"You dare yell at me? Do you believe I can take you down right here, right now?!" Wang Zongbang stepped forward, glaring fiercely at Lin Zhonghua. "You think you're so tough? In my territory, a dragon must coil, and a tiger must lie down! Chi Ming, this old geezer is threatening a public servant! Treat it as assaulting an officer and cuff him!"

After speaking, Wang Zongbang turned and barked his command at Team Captain Chi Ming.

SLAP!

Before Chi Ming could step out, Lin Feng moved with lightning speed, delivering a hefty slap to Wang Zongbang's face!

A young man actually dared to hit the police station chief!

This stunned even Team Captain Chi Ming. He stared blankly, momentarily lost for words.

Wang Zongbang, the recipient of the slap, touched his plump cheek, fury instantly welling up.

Damn, is Lin Feng this bold? He's digging his own grave. Haha, hitting Director Wang. He's practically walking into the line of fire!

Zeng Hui was startled by the scene. He had always known Lin Feng was gutsy, but he hadn't expected him to go this far. Surrounded by a dozen police officers, he actually had the audacity to hit their chief!

"You fucking dare hit me?!"

Wang Zongbang, already in a foul mood after being questioned by Lin Zhonghua and Lin Feng, now had this brat slap him in front of everyone. He could no longer restrain himself!

He snatched the pistol from Chi Ming's belt, aimed the muzzle at Lin Feng, and roared, "Do you believe I won't shoot you dead?!"

Wang Zongbang drawing his gun instantly escalated the tension in the room!

Lin Zhonghua and Jiang Xiuyun were horrified. Jiang Xiuyun cried out, "No! Don't shoot! We can talk about this..."

As for Lin Zhonghua, his face was already a mask of uncontrollable rage.

"Heh, it'd be best if he shot him. That would save us a lot of trouble..." Zeng Yuhu muttered, exchanging a knowing smile with Bald Qiang.

They hoped for nothing more than for Lin Feng to die on the spot at Wang Zongbang's hand.

However, the one at gunpoint remained composed. He even cracked a faint smile as he looked at Wang Zongbang and said, "Go ahead. Shoot, if you dare."

"You dare threaten me? If I shoot you, who would dare do anything about it?!" Wang Zongbang edged closer, looking as if he was truly about to pull the trigger.

"Young man, don't provoke our chief. This is assaulting an officer. Even if he accidentally shoots you dead, he won't be held accountable," cautioned Chi Ming.

"Accidentally? He aims his gun at my head and then 'accidentally' shoots me dead? If that's an accident, then tell me, what isn't?" Lin Feng said with a faint smile, glancing at Chi Ming.

Chi Ming was rendered speechless. Does this kid really not understand how to read the writing on the wall? he wondered. At a time like this, he's still quibbling over words! Can't he see the situation clearly? The police are here; their only option is to cooperate. Otherwise, the consequences will be dire.

"Kid, apologize to our chief. Admit your mistake. Our chief isn't the type to give a young person a hard time. You need to clearly consider the difference between the charges of disturbing the peace versus assaulting an officer and resisting arrest. Otherwise, once we get back to the station, things could get very ugly for you."

Chi Ming spoke in a tone that was half advisory, half threatening. The situation was completely under their control. He knew that Zeng Hui, owner of the Tianyue Hotel, was in cahoots with Wang Zongbang. These people wanted to deal with Lin Feng's group, and Lin Feng's group had no choice but to take it. The more they resisted, the worse their fate would be.

"Lin Feng, still think you're so tough? Heh, I'm telling you, you're screwed today," Zeng Yuhu said, overjoyed to see Lin Feng doomed.

"Apologize, admit your mistake, and I might be lenient about the other things. We'll deal with you back at the station," Wang Zongbang stared at Lin Feng and sneered.

Watching Wang Zongbang's insufferably arrogant demeanor, Lin Feng felt a blaze of anger surge within him.

"Fatso, I really want to slap you a couple more times!" Lin Feng stared at Wang Zongbang, gritted his teeth, and muttered under his breath.

"You! … Heh, you dare? If you've got the guts, then try it! Hmph, I guarantee you, before your hand even touches me, I'll have already put a bullet in you!"

Hearing Lin Feng's words, Wang Zongbang's anger turned to a sneering laugh. He leaned his face closer to Lin Feng and said with extreme arrogance, "Well? Make a move, why don't you? Go on, hit me! Come on, slap me..."
