Wang Huaping was on duty nearby and rushed over immediately after receiving Feng Changming's message. Having been involved with both legitimate and criminal circles for so long on Pingjiang territory (sweat, this is also a forbidden word; the book uses symbols to separate forbidden words, hoping everyone can understand), he naturally had good relationships with people from both sides, including with Feng Changming, who was once the head of Pingjiang's underworld. Even when Feng gradually fell into obscurity later on, Wang Huaping still maintained excellent relations with him.

After all, entertainment venues like Ginza need someone like Wang to come and 'help' maintain order. If not for Wang Huaping, how could Feng Changming dare to openly engage in drug trafficking or provide prostitution services

Naturally, the Ginza KTV would also offer many benefits annually to the Criminal Investigation Unit; just Wang Huaping alone could receive a half million yuan "management fee" from Ginza each year. This money Wang Huaping accepted with peace of mind, as he wasn't someone who only took money and did nothing.

Seeing Ginza in such a mess after being smashed up, Wang Huaping knew something was wrong immediately. The ground was littered with shards of glass bottles and spilled liquor, the smell of alcohol overwhelming; guests had long fled, even those 'princesses' from private rooms didn't bother putting on coats as they ran out half-dressed, afraid that the battle might involve them.

Who dared to smash up Feng Changming's place Doesn't this person want to continue doing business in Pingjiang

When Wang Huaping received a phone call from someone sent by Feng Changming, he didn't think it was particularly serious at first. He assumed it was just a typical gang fight that Feng would be able to handle with his capabilities; however, now it looked like the situation wasn't so simple. With so many security guards lying on the ground crying out in pain, clearly their opponents were highly skilled.

Wang Huaping's temper was currently very short; any slight setback could instantly ignite a small flame of anger within him into an uncontrollable inferno with just one touch, making him prone to sudden rage. Therefore, his recent interpersonal relationships at the police station weren't good; who would want to work alongside someone that could explode anytime

Seeing someone smash up Ginza in his jurisdiction like this made Wang Huaping's anger flare instantly.

The annual protection fee he received from Ginza was half a million yuan. With Ginza smashed up like this, it would take months to recover and the year-end dividends were bound to decrease significantly; how could Wang Huaping not be furious

"Where's Feng Changming" Wang Huaping shouted loudly.

Wang Zheng heard this and smiled as he released his grip on Feng Changming's neck.

A hint of joy flashed across Feng Changming's face as he endured the pain in his abdomen and yelled, "Captain Wang! I'm here!"

"Let's go over there," Wang Huaping waved his hand and led a squad of police officers over.

Feng Changming glared fiercely at Wang Zheng; now that Wang Huaping was here, let's see how this guy would dare to be arrogant. He couldn't possibly hit the police, could he

"What happened Why is it like this" Seeing Feng Changming clutching his stomach, a look of surprise flashed across Wang Huaping's face: "Brother Feng, what's wrong with you"

Wang Zheng stood to one side with a half-smile on his face, watching the scene where law enforcement and criminals appeared friendly towards each other; a glint of sharpness shone in his eyes, as if he was contemplating something.

After Wang Huaping led the detective team to arrive, he only acknowledged his relatives and showed no interest in the cause of the incident, which was clearly not what a competent police officer should do.

"Captain Wang, this time, Ginza has suffered huge losses!" Feng Changming pointed at the chaotic hall and those security personnel lying on the ground unable to stand up, wearing an expression full of pain. He then pointed at Wang Zheng and said, "Captain Wang, you have to uphold justice for Ginza! These damages were caused by this one person!"

"Caused by a single individual A single person could be that capable" Wang Huaping was somewhat surprised and angry. Shifting his tone, he said, "However, no matter how capable an individual is, can they really place themselves above the law"

Wang Zheng watched all this with a cold face without uttering a word.

"Rest assured, I will handle this fairly and impartially. I won’t favor any side." Wang Huaping stood up, glaring coldly at Wang Zheng as he asked, "Is it true that you’re the one who caused this mess"

Wang Zheng’s face was hidden in shadow; he said with a smile, "It's me. What do you think Can you still arrest me"

Now, Wang Huaping was like a powder keg ready to explode at any moment: “Arrest him, I naturally would! Guards, come here and handcuff him!”

Wang Zheng stepped out of the shadows with a smile on his face and said, "Wang Huaping, are you sure"

"Of course……I am ……sure…" staring at Wang Zheng, Wang Huaping suddenly became somewhat stammering. This familiar-looking face was nagging at him.

He recalled it now; this man was the one who had dinner with the commander’s daughter and could summon a special forces unit of direct command from the military district headquarters with just a phone call!

The last time that new rising star in Beijing's police force, Deputy Chief Qin Changqing, came for an inspection, he held this man in awe and even threatened him without hesitation because of him!

A person who could befriend the commander of the military district headquarters and make Qin Changqing feel fear, just what kind of person was that

Wang Huaping suddenly felt his legs trembling. Every time he encountered this fellow, something bad would happen, and this guy definitely had a powerful background and was someone who couldn’t be provoked.

Seeing Wang Zheng’s face showing no fear at all, Wang Huaping’s expression became unpredictable.

Wang Huaping knew clearly that Li Gang and Meng Dili, two notorious hoodlums in Pingjiang District, had been severely disciplined by this person. Thus, it shouldn’t be a big deal to discipline the old thug Feng Changming one more time, right

This guy really was an extremely unlucky star! Ever since he met him, his career and life went downhill, and wherever he went, there were troubles. Wang Huaping suddenly felt very aggrieved in his heart.

I can't provoke him, but I can avoid him!

At this moment, two police officers had already walked up to Wang Zheng and were about to handcuff him. Suddenly, they heard Wang Huaping shout, "Wait a minute, I need to take a call!"

The two police officers froze in place, looking at the captain who seemed unusually agitated.

Wang Huaping took out his phone and put it to his ear. After listening for a moment, he said seriously, "Hello, yes, Chief, please rest assured, I'll take my team there right away."

Hanging up the call, Wang Huaping's expression turned solemn as he announced gravely, "A criminal case has occurred in Xueyuan Community of Pingjiang District. We must leave immediately; everyone get into the car now."

"Then Captain, do we still need to handcuff this guy" asked a police officer, his handcuffs already out.

"We'll deal with him later. Let's head to Xueyuan Community first."

Glancing at the stunned Feng Changming, Wang Huaping said apologetically, "Brother Feng, there's a murder case over there; I need to leave right away. Why don't you hail a taxi and go to the hospital for treatment first Then see if we can resolve things with this young man"

Feng Changming stared wide-eyed as though he hadn’t quite grasped what had just happened.

Without waiting for Feng Changming’s response, Wang Huaping hurriedly led his team out of the room, leaving Feng Changming in bewilderment.

However, Wang Zheng's next words made Wang Huaping stop dead in his tracks!

"I can cure your explosive temper, Wang Captain. If you want to be completely cured, bring two million yuan to the main building of Jirong International Group tomorrow and find me."

Two million yuan!

The police officers looked at each other in confusion, unsure what was going on.

A flicker of a strange light flashed across Wang Huaping's eyes; he shook his head and sighed, then walked out.

At this point, half of Wang Huaping believed in what Wang Zheng had said.

Suddenly, his temper became so irritable that he couldn't even control it on purpose. Clearly, someone had done something to him behind the scenes. However, after much consideration, Wang Huaping could only think of Wang Zheng as a suspect.

Ever since Wang Zheng appeared, his temper had become extremely irritable. This was now the only clue he had.

Although two million yuan was quite a sum, for Wang Huaping, who had been collecting black money for so many years, it wasn't an unaffordable amount. Nevertheless, within such a short period of time, Wang Huaping had made up his mind that no matter what, he would try to get in touch with Wang Zheng. If Wang Zheng indeed turned out to be a mastermind, then even if it meant losing face, he would definitely seek him out.

Wang Zheng watched as the back of Wang Huaping's head disappeared into the distance. He smiled and patted Feng Changming on the shoulder, saying, "I see, Mr. Feng, haven't you figured out the situation yet I bet that tomorrow morning, Wang Huaping will come to Jirong with two million yuan."

Feng Changming's half-drunk mind finally understood that this person who dared to single-handedly smash his venue was actually someone whom even Wang Huaping wouldn't dare provoke. As for Wang Huaping himself, he truly disappointed Feng Changming immensely. A friend of many years' acquaintance had fled in the moment of crisis, which couldn't be described as a lack of loyalty.

Feng Changming looked at his venue, smashed into a mess and sighed heavily with some disappointment.

Wang Zheng patted Feng Changming's shoulder again and said, "Don’t feel down. I’m giving you time to think about your decision. When I come back next time, it will be when you have made up your mind."

"Why choose me Is it because Ginza is like a cash cow" Feng Changming asked in puzzlement. "I believe that investing in Li Gang or Meng Dili would be more profitable."

Wang Zheng shook his head and said, "You have something I need, but I can’t tell you what it is at the moment."

Wang Zheng glanced around with a smile and uttered a statement that left Feng Changming completely bewildered: "Ginza truly is a great place!"

Feng Changming sighed. "With your ruckus, I don’t know how long it will take for me to recover."

Wang Zheng ignored him and smiled slightly as he stepped over the glass shards on the ground outside Ginza KTV.

...

Walking down the streets of Beijing at night, Wang Zheng looked up at the brilliantly lit city and let out a sigh.

After scrolling through his phone for quite some time, he sighed again as if making up his mind to do something. He walked into a public telephone booth, inserted a coin, and dialed an unusual five-digit number.

In China, city telephone numbers had generally been upgraded to eight digits. Such a five-digit number could either be an outdated and invalid one or專線屬於國家重要部門的電話號碼！

A line dedicated to a national important department!on Don't think too highly of yourself! In Fuzhou for decades, no one has been able to force me into surrendering the Black Hand Society with such petty tricks. If you want to fight against me, come an...
