"Chief Wu, what are you …"
Wu Shian asked cautiously as he looked at Director Wu's pale face. He had a bad feeling about this.
"I'm Wu Zhengwen. Greetings, Inspector."
But Chief Wu ignored him. He cupped his hands and bowed deeply to Ding Ning while trembling, not even daring to raise his head.
"I'm Zhang Jingshan. Greetings, Inspector."
"I'm Li Molu. Greetings, Inspector."
"I'm Gao Weixiong. Greetings …"
…
As Chief Wu bowed, the four members of the Seventeenth Department immediately put away their rune guns and handcuffs, bowed respectfully, and did not even dare to breathe heavily.
What a joke! Ding Ning was holding the symbol of the highest power in the National Warrior's Mansion — the Wushuang Token.
Moreover, it was the Wushuang Token of the Country-guarding Martial Marquis, which was equivalent to Xiahou Weiyang coming in person. Seeing the token was like seeing Xiahou Weiyang, so they did not dare to show any disrespect.
The scene fell into a dead silence. People were dumbfounded and looked at the tall figure that attracted everyone's attention. They did not know who he was. He just showed the token and made the members of the special department, who were regarded as Wu Shian's trump card, lower their arrogant heads.
"Wu Zhengwen, do you know your crime?"
Ding Ning was slightly stunned. He did not expect Xiahou Weiyang's token to be so useful. He was secretly happy, but he did not show it on his face. He stared at Wu Zhengwen, who was sweating profusely, and shouted.
"I … I know my crime."
Wu Zhengwen trembled all over and did not even dare to refute. He lowered his head and replied with a trembling voice.
"Since you know your crime, I now announce that you will be suspended from the position of director. You will be punished after the investigation. Do you have any objection?"
Ding Ning said with a poker face, but he was a little uncertain in his heart. He did not know whether this inspector had this authority or not.
"I … I have no objection."
Wu Zhengwen's face was ashen, and he answered weakly as if he had been drained of all his strength.
He knew that he was finished. He had colluded with the Wu Family over the years and had done a lot of immoral things. Once he was found out, it would be a light punishment to be removed from the position of director. If he did not get his cultivation abolished and be put in jail, he would pray for Amitabha.
"You, immediately call the two deputy directors of the Shudu City Seventeenth Department."
Ding Ning pointed at a member of the Seventeenth Department and ordered.
"Yes, Lord Inspector."
The member of the Seventeenth Division who was called was like an eggplant that had been hit by frost. They were all Wu Zhengwen's trusted subordinates. If Wu Zhengwen was dismissed, they wouldn't have a good time either. However, since the Patrol had called out his name, he didn't dare to refuse. He quickly took out his phone and called the two deputy bureau chiefs.
Wu Shian's face was cloudy. He did not expect that Ding Ning had such a background. Even Wu Zhengwen was removed from the position of director by him. The strong sense of crisis that the building was about to collapse made him extremely uneasy. While others were not paying attention, he secretly sent a text message to Wu Shixun and asked him how it was going.
Because he could see that no matter what kind of official identity Ding Ning had, he was obviously standing up for Pan Xianglong. In this case, as long as he could control Pan Xianglong's parents, it would be his biggest bargaining chip.
As long as he could get through this, he would think about the future later. Even if Ding Ning was a senior member of the National Warrior's Mansion, he was not afraid. He still had his elder brother, who was the chief instructor of the Yulin Guards.
Unfortunately, no one knew where his elder brother was secretly training the Yulin Guards, so he could not get through to him. Otherwise, if he asked his elder brother to put pressure on the National Warrior's Mansion, this matter would be easily solved.
The Shudu Branch had three directors, one director and two deputy directors. As the director, Wu Zhengwen was arbitrary and had exclusive power. He had been suppressing and excluding them, making them depressed and unable to achieve their goals.
In fact, the two deputy directors were mingling in the crowd at the moment to watch the fun. Less than two minutes after the phone was connected, they appeared in front of Ding Ning and bowed with their hands folded in a very respectful manner. "I'm Han Tiesheng (Gu Yuming), the deputy director of the Shudu Branch. Greetings, Lord Inspector."
"Get up."
Ding Ning looked at him and found that Han Tiesheng's face was full of righteousness. He was neither servile nor overbearing, while Gu Yuming's eyes were burning with vague expectation. Ding Ning immediately made a decision and casually ordered, "From now on, Han Tiesheng will temporarily take over the position of the director of the Seventeenth Division and preside over all the affairs of the Seventeenth Division. After the investigation of Wu Zhengwen's violation of the law, the higher-ups will make new arrangements."
"Yes, Lord Inspector."
Han Tiesheng and Gu Yuming cupped their hands and said respectfully at the same time. However, Han Tiesheng was not surprised, but Gu Yuming's eyes showed a hint of unwillingness.
Ding Ning saw all of this, but he did not point it out. Who didn't have ambition? It was reasonable for Gu Yuming to want to be the director. There was nothing to criticize.
However, if he wanted to be the director, it would depend on whether he had the ability or not. He appointed Han Tiesheng as the acting director, but it did not mean that he would definitely be the director. In the end, who could sit on the throne of the director depended on their respective performance.
"Now, you guys work on the spot and come up with a plan as soon as possible on how to deal with today's matter."
After Ding Ning arranged it, he became a hands-off boss again. He pulled Pan Xianglong and Jiang Jing to sit beside him and drank with Long Luo and the others as if there was no one else around.
Because the identity of Dragon King and the others should not be exposed for the time being, Ding Ning did not intend to introduce them to each other. However, Pan Xianglong still politely toasted them one by one. He did not dare to show the slightest disrespect to his sister, the friend of his mysterious friend.
Jiang Jing was very flattered, she seemed very reserved. Fortunately, whether it was Kong Lei or Diba, both of them were women with very high EQ. With just a few words, they had narrowed the distance between them. Soon, they made her relax. They even volunteered to be their guide tomorrow and take them to taste the delicious food in Shu Du city.
Jiang Tiesheng's parents watched this scene from a distance. They had mixed feelings in their hearts. They did not know what they were feeling. They were happy that their daughter had escaped a disaster, but they also felt ashamed that they had abandoned their daughter in order not to get into trouble.
Han Tiesheng did things swiftly and decisively. After becoming the acting director, his first order was to pull up the surveillance footage of the restaurant and understand the details of the matter.
After confirming that Wu Ling had ignored the law and provoked Pan Xianglong, Han Tiesheng did not hesitate to have Wu Ling restrained and temporarily detained. He would deal with him after the investigation of the situation was completed.
This caused Wu Shian to be strongly dissatisfied. He questioned why the Seventeenth Department did not arrest Pan Xianglong, the culprit, on the grounds that Pan Xianglong had violated the rule that warriors were not allowed to attack ordinary people.
Han Tiesheng, however, said coldly, "Warriors are not allowed to attack ordinary people, provided that the ordinary people did not provoke the warriors. Wu Ling recklessly provoked Pan Xianglong and even wanted to take away his girlfriend in front of him. As a warrior, should Pan Xianglong be indifferent when his girlfriend was humiliated?"
Han Tiesheng's words made Wu Shian speechless. It was true that warriors were not allowed to attack ordinary people, but it was not absolute. When ordinary people provoked warriors, warriors had the right to teach them a lesson. Although Pan Xianglong had injured Wu Ling, he had shown mercy and did not kill him, which did not violate the rules of the Seventeenth Department.
However, Wu Shian, who was unwilling to give up, pointed at Eighth Hu, Wei Mingyu, Second Senior Brother, Wu Song, and the others. He said emotionally that Pan Xianglong was so vicious, especially Wu Song, who had become a cripple. Such a cruel and heartless person must be punished severely by the Seventeenth Department.
Han Tiesheng laughed coldly and looked at Wu Shian from the corner of his eyes. He said, "They were standing up for Wu Ling. Swords have no eyes. In a fight between warriors, it is normal to be injured or disabled. If they want to blame someone, they can only blame themselves for not being skilled enough. There is no one else to blame."
Wu Shian was so angry that his lungs were about to explode. Han Tiesheng was obviously siding with Pan Xianglong, but he had reason and evidence. Everything Pan Xianglong did was within the rules of the Seventeenth Department. He couldn't find any fault with it even if he wanted to.
But the most infuriating thing was that Han Tiesheng did not intend to let Wu Shian go. He slowly said that Wu Song had brazenly used the Martial Gate's name to take revenge, and even boasted shamelessly that he would kill Pan Xianglong in public. His unscrupulous behavior had seriously damaged the harmony and stability of society.
He had reason to suspect that Wu Song was a member of an organized criminal gang. He would use the name of the Seventeenth Department's Chief to report to the police and investigate Wu Song, A Gui, and Ma Tou.
In the past, the Martial Gate was the pride of the Wu Family, but now, it had been determined by Han Tiesheng to be a criminal gang. Once the higher-ups took it seriously, at this critical juncture of fighting against the underworld, the Martial Gate's shameful actions could very well bring disaster to the Wu Family. Even the Wu Group would be affected.
This made him realize that the Wu Family's arrogant and despotic behavior in the past had already sown the seeds of disaster for the Wu Family's destruction. He had to immediately use the Wu Family's connections and find connections from the higher-ups to put pressure on Han Tiesheng.
Otherwise, the Wu Family would be in imminent danger.
What made him most uneasy was that he had sent a text message to Wu Shixun to ask about the kidnapping of Pan Weiguo and his wife, but he had not received a reply. This made him realize that some unknown changes had occurred. Otherwise, Wu Shixun would definitely have replied to his message.
Thinking about this, Wu Shian could no longer sit still. He couldn't care less about Wu Ling, who was crying and begging him for help. He brought Wu Hongying and the bodyguards away with ashen faces.
He had to find out what had happened to Wu Shixun as soon as possible, so that he could make timely remedial measures to deal with this trouble perfectly.
That's right, it was trouble. From his point of view, although the current situation seemed to be a little bad, he thought that it was only a small problem.
After all, the Wu Family had stood tall for so many years. With his connections and background, even if he couldn't contact his eldest brother for the time being, it was enough to deal with this trouble.
At the worst, he would let Pan Xianglong go for now. After solving this problem in front of him, it would not be too late to slowly deal with the Pan Family.
Unfortunately, what he didn't know was that a video on the Internet had already exploded. It had just been uploaded, and in a short period of time, it had already been viewed more than three million times. The number of reposts had also reached more than six thousand, and this number was still increasing crazily. It had become the hottest topic on the Internet.
"Breaking the law? In Shu Du, the Wu Family is the law. If you want to blame someone, blame that bastard of yours. Of all people, he dared to offend the Wu Family. Take them away. "
And the scene of Wu Shixun forcibly breaking into the Pan Family's house, that arrogant and despotic look, and that insufferably arrogant words instantly aroused public anger. It also became the focus of heated discussion on the Internet.
"What kind of existence is the Shu Du Martial Sect? How dare they be so arrogant? "
"Now is the time to fight against the underworld. What kind of backing does the Shu Du Martial Sect have? How dare they commit crimes against the public and say such arrogant words. They must have a backer behind them. I strongly recommend the relevant departments to intervene and investigate. "
"The Shu Du Martial Sect actually broke into a private house and carried out a violent kidnapping. Who is acting as their bodyguard?
Bodyguard?
Umbrella? Who let them be so unscrupulous? "
"I didn't expect that there would be such a rampant underworld in the city of food. I was planning to take advantage of the May Day holiday to travel to Shu Du Martial Sect. But now, I am seriously worried about my personal safety. I am considering whether I should give up this trip or not."
