Chapter 60

As Wang Xiaoqiang spoke, he took off his shoes and stretched his foot towards the scar-faced man. Then he narrowed his eyes slightly.

The scar-faced man was a formidable figure in the underworld, a big brother level character. Even in prison, others served him; he never served others.

Since being locked up, the four men huddled in the corner had been massaging his feet. Now, suddenly, he had to massage someone else’s feet, which he found very uncomfortable. Moreover, the three brothers who had just been stepped on by Wang Xiaoqiang were still watching. If he, as the big brother, could not avenge his subordinates and instead had to massage the feet of this young man, how could he maintain his authority and command respect?

Thinking about this, a glint of cunning and malice flashed in the scar-faced man’s eyes. He glanced at Wang Xiaoqiang, who had closed his eyes. Biting his lip, he grabbed Wang Xiaoqiang’s foot and ankle with both hands and, without hesitation, tried to twist his ankle. However, as soon as he applied force, he felt two currents of electricity jolt his hands, causing them to be violently shaken off. He felt a mix of pain, numbness, and tingling, which was very unpleasant.

Wang Xiaoqiang opened his eyes and said, "If you don’t want to get beaten, massage my feet properly!"

He had seen skilled martial artists before, but never one as bizarre as this. The scar-faced man looked at Wang Xiaoqiang as if he were a monster, finally giving in. Ignoring the pain in his hands, he began to massage Wang Xiaoqiang’s feet obediently.

Chen Kai had bribed the scar-faced man and his gang through the police, instructing them to teach Wang Xiaoqiang a lesson. By now, he thought Wang Xiaoqiang would have been thoroughly beaten by the scar-faced man. He walked to the window and peered inside. When he saw the scene, his eyes nearly popped out.

The scar-faced man and his gang were notorious bandits, all trained fighters, especially the scar-faced man, who was a formidable fighter. They were far superior to the motorcycle gang. Logically, Wang Xiaoqiang should have been beaten to the ground, but instead, it was the scar-faced man’s three subordinates who were lying on the ground, groaning. More bizarrely, the country bumpkin was actually lying on the bed, receiving a massage from the scar-faced man!

This, this...

Seeing this, Chen Kai felt a wave of frustration, but he had no idea what to do. The only option now was to force Xia Gui Fang to confess. Once Wang Xiaoqiang’s charges were confirmed, the police would deal with him. If he dared to resist, it would be considered assault on a police officer, which would make his crime even more serious.

At this moment, Xu Qingxue drove to the district police station. As the second-in-command, only Chen Tianpeng was above her. The guards naturally did not stop her, but they were curious why Deputy Director Xu would come in the middle of the night.

Xu Qingxue, not only a deputy director but also a beauty, had always been the focus of the police station, the object of men’s admiration. The two guards looked over, seeing Xu Qingxue push open the car door and step out gracefully. Her long, beautiful legs firmly planted on the ground, she walked briskly towards the building with a commanding presence.

Xu Qingxue had worked at the police station for seven years, from a police officer to deputy director, so she knew the building well.

As soon as she entered the building, she headed straight for the duty office. However, before she had taken a few steps, she heard a commotion coming from a nearby office. Frowning, she quickly walked towards the source of the noise. At the door, she saw it was an interrogation room. The door was slightly ajar, and a girl who looked like a country girl was being questioned, her face showing a mix of fear and suppressed anger. On the side, a group of young men who looked like hooligans were interrupting, grinning and laughing.

Seeing this, Xu Qingxue seemed to realize something and stopped to listen.

"Comrade police officer, how many times do I have to tell you? We are the victims. They tried to rape me, and my boyfriend Wang Xiaoqiang couldn’t stand it, so he hit them." Although Xia Gui Fang was very afraid, she refused to provide a statement that would incriminate Wang Xiaoqiang.

The police officer recording the statement looked at Xia Gui Fang and then at the grinning Cui Wei and others. He felt very frustrated. Wearing a police uniform, he did not want to do such a corrupt thing, but the troublemaker was the son of the police chief. What could a small police officer like him do? Could he really rule against Chen Kai and his gang?

"Let me tell you the truth. One of the people your boyfriend hit is the son of our police chief, and the others are also influential people. If you don’t cooperate with us, not only will Wang Xiaoqiang be criminally detained, but you will also be charged with complicity and face criminal detention. Of course, if you are willing to testify against Wang Xiaoqiang, we won’t make things difficult for you." One of the police officers, seeing that Xia Gui Fang was not cooperating, had to threaten and诱导 her with a stern face.

Xia Gui Fang clenched her teeth and refused to frame Wang Xiaoqiang, but the police officer’s threats made her pale and tears welled up in her eyes.

This country girl had never been to a police station before, let alone faced criminal detention. The thought of it made her extremely afraid.

"Is this how you record statements?" Just as Xia Gui Fang was on the verge of tears, Xu Qingxue could no longer hold back. She pushed open the door, her face cold, and her eyes scanning the interrogation room angrily.

"Ah, Director Xu, what are you doing here?"

The two interrogators, seeing Xu Qingxue, were so frightened that they stood up, trembling with guilt.

"Who is this girl, and has a man named Wang Xiaoqiang been brought in?" Although the two interrogators were very scared, Xu Qingxue’s face remained cold, her words like ice chips falling to the ground, making the two men shiver with fear, especially when they heard her mention Wang Xiaoqiang by name.

Could this beautiful director have come here for Wang Xiaoqiang in the middle of the night? Oh, how could that be possible? He was just a farmer, and his girlfriend had already confirmed his identity. How could he possibly know Xu Qingxue? Even if he did, why would she rush here for him in the middle of the night?

Just as the two police officers were panicking and unsure whether Xu Qingxue had come for Wang Xiaoqiang, Xia Gui Fang saw a glimmer of hope in Xu Qingxue and quickly stood up, saying, "Director Xu, I am Wang Xiaoqiang’s girlfriend, Xia Gui Fang. Wang Xiaoqiang is innocent. He hit those people because they were bullying me. Please help him."

Whether Wang Xiaoqiang was a good person, Xu Qingxue knew very well, and no explanation was needed.

"Ah, you are Xiaoqiang’s girlfriend. Don’t worry, the police will handle the case fairly." Xu Qingxue’s expression softened as she comforted Xia Gui Fang, then turned to the two police officers, her face suddenly cold again.

"Are you all mute? Where is Wang Xiaoqiang?" Xu Qingxue asked coldly and angrily.

"In, in the temporary holding area!" One of the police officers said, lowering his head.

Cui Wei and the other motorcycle gang members, who recognized Xu Qingxue, were somewhat uneasy when they saw she had come for Wang Xiaoqiang, but they were not as panicked as the two police officers.

In their view, Xu Qingxue was the deputy director of the district, while Chen Kai’s father, Chen Tianpeng, was the chief of police and a member of the municipal committee. Who was bigger, who was more important? It was obvious, so there was no need to fear her.

What they did not know was that Xu Qingxue’s brother was the secretary of the provincial committee, and her father was the former director of the provincial committee office. If they had known this, they would have been so scared that they would have wet their pants!
