Tang Hao and Captain Zhou were immediately on alert when they heard someone calling for help.
Captain Zhou stepped forward and rammed down the door, then everyone rushed into the room.
The room was shrouded in a heavy fog of cigarette smoke. Seven or eight young men and women were seated all around. One of the men was sitting on top of a girl in her late teens. His hands were all over the place, his perverse intentions clearly seen by everyone.
The young girl was in a panic. She struggled with all her might and kept on calling for help.
Meanwhile, the people seated all around them acted as though they were watching a movie. Some of them laughed when they saw the scene, and some even took out their phones to take photos and videos.
“Stop!” Captain Zhou’s eyes were almost bursting out of their sockets when they saw that.
The man instinctively stopped moving when he heard the command. He sat up and turned around to look, then smirked disdainfully. “Oh, it’s the police! Is something the matter?
“If there’s nothing, then get lost! You’re distracting me!”
After he said that, the man bent over again and continued with his exploration of the girl’s body.
“Save me!” The girl was struggling with all her might.
“Stop moving, you filthy b*tch! I’ll slap you if you keep moving! Hmph! What a piece of trash. You’re already out here enjoying with us yet you don’t want to let loose? I’m sure you’ve slept with many men before!” The man cursed ferociously.
He then turned to glance at Captain Zhou. “Why are you still here? It’s none of your business that I’m f*cking my girl. Don’t you know who I am? Do you believe if I say that I can end your career if I make a phone call now?”
Captain Zhou’s face darkened completely. His body was trembling slightly.
His anger was at his limit. In his years of being a police officer, he had never seen such a brazen, shameless person. No, he did not deserve to be called a person!
“You’re under arrest, Cheng Zhijie!” Captain Zhou said each syllable through gritted teeth.
The room went silent after he said that.
Then, the people burst out in laughter.
“Hahaha! Mr. Officer, you know that his name is Cheng Zhijie, right? Then you should know who his father is! Do you think you can arrest him? What a joke!”
Cheng Zhijie was momentarily stunned, after which he broke into laughter.
He sat up, straightened his clothes, and looked at Captain Zhou with a sinister gaze.
“What’s your name?” He regarded Captain Zhou coldly.
“My name is Zhou Bin, a squad captain of the Criminal Division!” Captain Zhou replied coldly.
“Oh, a squad captain, too!” Cheng Zhijie smiled. “Unfortunately, a squad captain like you is just a small fry in my eyes. I don’t think you’d dare lay a finger on me.”
As he was speaking, the young girl next to her abruptly ran away from him.
“Stupid b*tch, still trying to escape?”
Cheng Zhijie’s eyes flashed with malice. He lunged forward and attempted to grab the girl.
Tang Hao saw that. With a big step, he stepped forward and hugged the girl, then reached out with his left hand to grab Cheng Zhijie’s wrist.
“You… Who the hell are you? How dare you stop me? Are you sick of living?”
Cheng Zhijie’s eyes were bulging and his face displayed a vicious expression.
Tang Hao narrowed his eyes. “You’re worse than an animal!” He said coldly.
Cheng Zhijie was furious. “F*ck you, do you want to die so much? Do you know who I am? My dad is the district mayor. Do you know what the district mayor is? He can crush a lowly peasant like you with a finger.
“And you too, you filthy b*tch. It’s an honor to be f*cked by me. You don’t know what’s good for you.” Cheng Zhijie pointed a finger at the girl and yelled at her.
The young girl was trembling as she clung to Tang Hao’s arm.
She lifted her head and looked at Tang Hao, then suddenly said, “I… I know you. You’re Yan’er’s boyfriend.”
Tang Hao was a little taken aback. He looked at her with surprise.
“I’m Yan’er’s classmate. A very good friend,” the young girl said, “I saw you at school back then!”
Cheng Zhijie smiled. “Oh, so you’re the boyfriend of that innocent and pure beauty queen! I’ve seen her before. She’s pretty. It must feel nice to f*ck her.”
Perversion flashed in his eyes as he spoke.
Tang Hao’s face darkened. His eyes flashed with extreme coldness and he increased the grip strength on his left hand.
Cheng Zhijie screamed in pain. “Dammit, why aren’t you letting go? I’ll kill you! And that chick… Motherf*cker! Let go of me!”
Cheng Zhijie was furious even though he was screaming in pain.
He had been the bully in Westridge District. Never had he been on the receiving end of bullying.
Viciousness flashed across his face. He picked up a beer bottle from the table and smashed it on Tang Hao’s head.
Tang Hao did not bother to dodge.
Smash!
The beer bottle landed squarely on his head. Glass shards flew everywhere.
The young girl shrieked, and so did Captain Zhou. “Are you OK, Brother Tang?”
“Haha, serves you right for meddling!” Cheng Zhijie laughed maniacally.
Tang Hao did not even flinch. In fact, he did not feel any pain at all. With his current level of cultivation, the glass bottle did not hurt him one bit.
He turned around to face Captain Zhou and the police officers and said, “See that? He’s the one who struck first!”
“So I did. What can you possibly do to me? I’ll kill you today!” Cheng Zhijie roared with brazen anger. He lifted the broken beer bottle and stabbed it toward Tang Hao.
Tang Hao dodged the attack with a sidestep and kicked.
Bam!
His leg connected with Cheng Zhijie’s stomach. Cheng Zhijie’s body folded inward and his face was contorted. Then, his body flew backward like a cannonball and landed heavily on the wall.
The room instantly descended into a deathly silence.
The people sitting around the room were dumbfounded. Their eyes bulged with fear.
Even Captain Zhou was dumbstruck.
Cheng Zhijie slid down the wall and onto the floor. He was curled in the fetal position, clutching his stomach and moaning in pain.
“You bastard, how dare you kick me…” Cheng Zhijie cursed loudly. His eyes were full of hatred as he lifted his head and looked at Tang Hao.
Tang Hao’s face was vacant. He stepped forward and delivered another kick to his stomach. “I’m kicking you again. What are you going to do about it? Aren’t you arrogant? I’ll be more arrogant than you,” he said coldly.
He then crouched down in front of Cheng Zhijie, grabbed his hair, then delivered several punches onto his face.
Cheng Zhijie’s handsome face was already swollen black and blue. Blood oozed out of his nostrils and mouth. He looked especially pathetic.
“You’re… You’re dead meat! My dad won’t forgive you. You’re dead meat, I tell you!” Cheng Zhijie roared.
“Is that so?” Tang Hao smirked. He grabbed his head by the hair and slammed it onto the floor.
Everyone around them looked on with fear in their eyes. They could not believe that someone would treat Cheng Zhijie like that in Westridge District.
“Haha! You’re dead meat! And all you police officers too!” Someone started laughing.
Captain Zhou frowned. He turned to order the police officers at his left and right. “Arrest that guy, and all these other people too. Bring them back to the police station.”
“Yes, Captain Zhou!”
The police officers were already raring to make their move. Once they received their orders, they pounced onto the young men and women like tigers and wolves and cuffed up each one of them.
“You… You can’t do that to us. Do you know who we are? You all are just small fry and you dare cuff us?” Someone shouted.
“Shut up! I don’t care who you are now. You might be the king of heaven, and I’ll still cuff you up. When we came into the room, all of you were witnesses to a rape scene and you did nothing to stop it. To a certain extent, you all are accomplices.” Captain Zhou roared.
Then, he turned to speak to Tang Hao, “That’s enough, Brother Tang. You’d be letting him off easy if you kill him.”
Tang Hao nodded and let go.
“Cheng Zhijie, do you remember a girl named Zhou Lingxue from five years ago?: Captain Zhou said as he stepped forward, producing a pair of handcuffs. “She’s also a student from First High. It’s been so many years, but you haven’t changed!”
Cheng Zhijie was stunned. His face displayed panic.
“Cheng Zhijie, you are now under arrest for kidnapping, rape, and murder!” Captain Zhou spoke as he slapped the handcuffs on Cheng Zhijie’s wrists.
Cheng Zhijie smirked. “Arrest me all you want. I’d like to see how you’d convict me of anything! My dad will settle everything, and you’ll be the one getting in trouble.”
“Stop talking nonsense and start walking!” Captain Zhou said as he escorted him outside.
