were standing, speaking with great respect.Although this Manager Liu didn't recognize Xiao Yu, he knew Liu Hao! Liu Hao could be considered a local bully here, and even had some fame throughout the en...Chapter 793: Breaking Out of the Divine Prohibition Domain (Grand Finale)
"How is Governor Wu's reputation" After hearing Zhang Yin's words, Xiao Yu pondered for a moment and slowly asked.
Hearing Xiao Yu's question, Fang Yulong and Zhang Yin were inexplicably alarmed, looking at Xiao Yu in surprise. They wondered what his purpose was by asking such a question, but Xiao Yu’s expression remained calm throughout, showing no signs of disturbance.
"Governor Wu's reputation is average. Although he hasn't achieved any significant political accomplishments, he has always been cautious and careful, without any major blunders. However, there might be some issues economically..."
Hearing Xiao Yu’s question, Zhang Yin did not dare to conceal anything, knowing that even if Xiao Yu were to investigate himself, it would still come to light. Besides, he didn't know Wu Jianshe personally, so he was speaking from a neutral standpoint. As for the economic issues, they were common among officials, and unless they were severe problems, few people paid much attention.
After hearing Zhang Yin’s response, Xiao Yu thought for a moment before nodding his head. He then said to Zhang Yin, "Just make sure that my friends are safe recently, let everything else develop freely."
"Understood! We will certainly fulfill the task!" Upon hearing Xiao Yu's words, Zhang Yin saluted him and replied straightforwardly.
After seeing them off, Xiao Yu returned to Wang Chengzhi’s villa.
In the living room of the villa, Wang Chengzhi and his family were sitting on the sofa. When they saw Xiao Yu enter, their eyes followed him, finding it hard to believe that someone like Fang Yulong and Zhang Yin would visit them.
"Fourth Brother, how do you know these two" Upon seeing Xiao Yu come closer, Wang Chengzhi asked curiously.
Hearing Wang Chengzhi’s question, Xiao Yu smiled bitterly. "I don't know them personally; I merely saved a few soldiers from the military in the past. They were on another boat yesterday and remembered me after spotting me today, wanting to express their gratitude."
Upon hearing Xiao Yu's explanation, Wang Chengzhi’s family nodded thoughtfully. It was likely true given that Xiao Yu’s medical skills were well-known; it wouldn’t be surprising if he had saved someone before.
So soon, the Wang family stopped worrying about these matters. After Xiao Yu and his companions finished their breakfast, Liu Yong came to take Wang Jun to work, while Wang Chengzhi also needed to go to work. However, today Xiao Yu planned to visit West Lake; that massive creature from last night had been on his mind.
When searching through Zhong Kui's memories last night, he discovered that the massive creature carried a presence of Buddha energy, meaning it possessed merit power.
This was why Xiao Yu decided to go back to West Lake again. Although the massive creature had merit power on its person, having such an entity in a bustling area indeed caused some concern.
After leaving Wang Chengzhi's villa, Xiao Yu hailed a taxi heading towards West Lake, but before he could travel far, several police officers from a parked patrol car walked down and stopped him. "Hello! There’s a case of intentional assault that requires your assistance for an investigation."
Hearing these policemen, Xiao Yu paused momentarily. Suddenly, turning around, he looked towards a corner, only to see a figure there disappear.
Though the figure had quickly moved away, it was clearly seen by Xiao Yu. When he spotted this figure, a cold smile formed at his lips.
The figure that had just dodged him was Wu Ting. After such a humiliation last night, with his vindictive nature, how could he leave things as they were Although he couldn’t do anything to Wang Chengzhi for now, it didn't mean he couldn’t act against Xiao Yu.
Wu Ting didn’t believe that the Wang family would risk their relationships by defending someone who was unimportant. Furthermore, Xiao Yu had truly committed an assault last night, which couldn't be covered up; this meant that if Wang Jun were to show favoritism and bend the law, his father could have no doubt in securing the position of governor.
"Haha!" After spotting the figure, Xiao Yu turned around and lightly chuckled at the policemen.
Seeing Xiao Yu's smile sent a chill down these policemen’s spines. However, they quickly recovered and said, "Let's go."
"I hope you won’t regret bringing me back," replied Xiao Yu with a slight smile after hearing them speak, then he entered the police car.
When he saw Wu Ting, he knew that these policemen had been called by him.
Xiao Yu was injured last night, but part of it is due to the grudges in the martial arts world, and another part was for Gu Liang's revenge. Although what he did broke the law, sometimes such things don't matter to certain people.
If Xiao Yu should be arrested, Wu Ting and his group wouldn't escape either. Besides, these matters are all within the martial arts community, where legal constraints have little effect because the martial arts world has its own set of rules.
Moreover, it was clearly Wu Ting's operation; although that middle-aged man injured him, he wouldn’t report to the police. If he did so after being hurt by a martial artist, he would no longer be able to face others in the martial arts world.
Wang Wei wouldn't report either; he first arranged for someone to cripple Gu Liang, and if investigated deeply, he couldn’t escape either. Although his family is wealthy, so is the Gu family.
After getting into a police car, Xiao Yu wasn’t taken to any city-level Public Security Bureau but was brought straight to Zhejiang Provincial Department of Public Security's Criminal Investigation Corps.
It turned out that since Wang Chengzhi’s father is the secretary of the Municipal Committee in Hangzhou City and controls all the public security bureaus, Wu Ting went directly to the provincial department. After all, his father is a deputy governor, so he has more influence in the Provincial Department compared to the city-level Public Security Bureau. Besides, there are also people loyal to his father within the department.
Xiao Yu was taken by these police officers into an interrogation room.
Sitting on the chair in the interrogation room, Xiao Yu calmly looked at the few police officers sitting opposite him.
"Where were you at 11:30 last night" The police officers slightly frowned when they saw Xiao Yu's calm expression and asked. His current behavior is quite strange; if he was a habitual offender, it might make sense, but after their investigation, this Xiao Yu has never been to the Public Security Bureau before.
In their experience, people who come into the bureau so calmly are either extremely confident or regular troublemakers in the system.
But clearly, the person in front of them is not a troublemaker. Does he have some kind of background that allows him to disregard them But according to his records, he's just someone living in a small county in northern China; such a person shouldn't act like this! Knowing that even those who haven’t committed any crime will be extremely nervous on their first visit to the Public Security Bureau, let alone coming straight into the Provincial Department of Public Security's Criminal Investigation Corps.
"Hehe, I was having dinner on a boat in West Lake!" Xiao Yu didn't hide anything when he heard the police officers' question and said with a laugh.
The moment Xiao Yu's words were spoken, the policemen involuntarily held their breath. They knew about the West Lake boat tours; in all the years they had worked at the Provincial Public Security Department, they had only gone there once for a celebration banquet when their old leader was promoted to Deputy Director. To get access to such places wasn't easy—people without sufficient status could even be asked to leave.
So rather than going somewhere and embarrassing themselves, it would be better to stick to places they knew well, where they could be treated like kings while eating, drinking, playing, and having fun.
"Who were you with Who can vouch for that" The policeman hadn't intended to ask such questions. He was just going to question Xiao Yu about injuring someone near West Lake. If Xiao Yu admitted it, great; if not, he had his ways of making him confess. However, after hearing Xiao Yu mention the boat tours at West Lake where he had eaten, they couldn’t help but ask.
After all, sometimes even high-ranking officials could get involved in conflicts that would drag others into trouble. Now they understood why Wu Ting said they were attacked near West Lake—someone who could hurt Wu Ting was definitely someone he needed to rely on to vent his frustrations against. This implied something.
Although this was an order from a Deputy Director, and the one requesting their help was Governor Wu’s son, these policemen still wanted to understand more. After all, they were provincial-level police officers who had seen and understood much more than those at the precinct level.
If it was a precinct-level policeman, seeing the governor's son request their assistance, they would have rushed off immediately without caring about who the other party was. But these men were different—they often witnessed high-ranking officials’ sons engaging in power struggles and knew that such individuals weren't to be trifled with.
"Ahem... Just a few friends—Mayor Liu Yong of Hangzhou City's Municipal Party Committee Office, Wang Secretary’s son, Wang Chengzhi. Oh, right, I remember now—there was also General Fang Yulong from the Provincial Military Region and Captain Zhang Yin from the Provincial Riot Control Unit!"
Hearing the policeman’s questions, Xiao Yu chuckled slightly before answering them calmly.
"Sss..." The policemen drew in their breath after hearing this. Now they were even more concerned—they were glad that they had asked earlier; if it was only Liu Yong and Wang Chengzhi, things would have been better. But now it involved Fang Yulong and Zhang Yin—these two men wielded real power and couldn't be compared to second-generation elites at all. Moreover, the military system didn’t mix with local authorities.
A moment later, these policemen exchanged a few whispers before leaving.
The policemen went outside and looked at each other. One of them, who was in his forties, said, "Keep an eye on him—I'll make a phone call to our superiors."
After saying this, the policeman left for another office because dealing with this situation had exceeded their authority. To avoid inviting trouble upon themselves, they needed to report it upwards.y! I'll definitely get you there!" He then drove off from the airport.The taxi gradually entered Zhonghai, a bustling financial hub city. The architecture of Zhonghai was markedly different from that...
