26: Call people
At this point, how could Qin Yang not understand what was going on? Second Bao clearly had a backer in the police station, which was why he was so brazen!
Immediately, Qin Yang stated that he wanted to make a phone call.
"Make a call? What call? Do you know that your current behavior is gathering a crowd to commit a crime and injuring others? Just stay in the station for now!" a young officer taking Qin Yang's statement said disdainfully.
However, Qin Yang was not to be intimidated. He immediately took out his phone and said, "I'm definitely making this call. Stop me if you dare. If officials and thugs are in cahoots, I refuse to believe there's nowhere left to find justice!"
Hearing Qin Yang's words, the young officer was stunned for a moment, then became furious. He wanted to step forward and snatch Qin Yang's phone, but Wang Chao and the others were no pushovers; they quickly stood in front of Qin Yang and blocked him back.
At this moment, another officer who sensed something was wrong finally pulled the young officer back and whispered, "This man is completely unfazed; his background is likely not simple. This is a fight between immortals now—why are you rushing in to be cannon fodder?"
Hearing his colleague's advice, the young officer was suddenly startled, and the overbearing momentum he had just shown instantly weakened.
Seeing this, Qin Yang glanced at the man, picked up his phone, and began to dial. The first person Qin Yang called was naturally Zhao Zhi. Currently, Zhao Zhi was authorized by Qin Yang to handle all of his properties with full power. For a high-level talent like him, doing these things was like a fish in water.
"Hello! Boss!" Zhao Zhi answered the phone on the other end.
"Zhao Zhi, I'm currently at the North District Police Station. I've run into some trouble here. Right now, go and contact some reporters in the city as well as some of the more famous lawyers to come over," Qin Yang replied.
"Understood, Boss. I'll get right on it!" Zhao Zhi didn't ask why, because Qin Yang's words were like an imperial decree to the Death Warriors. If it was easy to do, it must be done; if it was hard to do, it still must be done!
Next, Qin Yang called High Official Hu. High Official Hu was a gourmet. After meeting through Wei Liang, High Official Hu had visited Hongbin Tower many times for its culinary craftsmanship. Over time, the relationship between Qin Yang and High Official Hu had grown much closer. Now that official backgrounds were involved, Qin Yang didn't ask High Official Hu to side with him, but he sought fair treatment; he believed the man would give him that much face.
Sure enough, as Qin Yang expected, after he narrated the events, High Official Hu was also beyond furious. To any discerning eye, the death of Qin Yang's Maternal Uncle was suspicious. At this time, the other party was even using official power to suppress people—this was simply a total disregard for the law!
"This is truly lawless! President Qin, look, don't be in a hurry to find reporters for now. Since you can trust me with this matter, please rest assured, I will definitely give you an explanation!" High Official Hu said very solemnly over the phone.
"Alright, High Official Hu, I trust you. I won't let the reporters expose this matter for the time being." Qin Yang understood the other's meaning and took a step back.
In today's internet age, information spreads particularly fast. Once news of collusion between officials and thugs and the disregard for human life in H City was truly leaked, the impact of public opinion would be massive. It would even have a certain impact on someone of High Official Hu's level. As for whether the information would spread, High Official Hu believed that with Qin Yang's ability, making it big would be very easy. One should not underestimate the power of the wealthy; as of now, Qin Yang had also crossed into the ranks of the rich!
High Official Hu's actions were very swift. Within a few minutes, an officer with a rank clearly higher than the other officers walked into the statement room. When this fellow entered, he was still panting heavily; it seemed he had run a considerable distance.
After entering the door, the high-ranking officer asked, "Which one is President Qin Yang?"
Qin Yang stood up, looked at the man, and said, "I am. And who are you?"
"Hello, President Qin. My name is Deng Jun, and I am the Chief of this police station. High Official Hu has already told me about your request. Please rest assured, President Qin, as officers who maintain public order, we will definitely enforce the law impartially. We will not wrong a good person, nor will we let a bad person go."
After listening, Qin Yang looked deeply at Deng Jun and said, "I hope you can do as you say! How do you plan to handle the current situation?"
"Regarding the matter of your Maternal Uncle, on behalf of the North District Police Station, I express my deep condolences. We have already opened a case for investigation into your Maternal Uncle's death. I expect news will be back soon."
"Since you've already started the investigation, I have nothing more to say and won't delay your handling of the case. But from now on, I will wait right here. The suspect, Second Bao, is currently in your police station. I think it shouldn't be too difficult to find out the truth, don't you think, Chief Deng?" Qin Yang replied.
"This... President Qin, this isn't in accordance with the rules!" Deng Jun said with a look of difficulty.
"Heh, then was it in accordance with the rules for these subordinates of yours to treat us like criminals during interrogation just now?! Of course, I don't want to dwell on that now. I only want the truth!! I want to seek justice for my Maternal Uncle!" Qin Yang replied, his eyes fixed on Deng Jun.
Deng Jun looked at Qin Yang with a bit of a guilty conscience and said, "Alright then. You guys, take good care of the victim's family!"
While agreeing, Deng Jun gave instructions to several of his subordinates.
Deng Jun then left.
After Deng Jun left, the young officer from before looked at Qin Yang, his toes curling in embarrassment. He had relied on experience; seeing that Qin Yang and the others were young and not wearing any big brands, he thought they were ordinary people who were easy to push around. Who would have thought that they actually had a real background? With a few phone calls, even the station Chief had to come running to receive them. One must know that the rank of the North District station was not low; someone who could command Deng Jun was definitely a big shot in H City.
The young officer then looked gratefully at the colleague who had stopped him earlier.
At this time, that colleague was smiling and saying to Qin Yang, "President Qin, how about this? You see, this statement room is a bit small, and it's a bit crowded for all of you to stay here. It just so happens we have a mediation room here with more space, and we provide hot water and instant noodles. Why don't we change locations to wait?"
Qin Yang looked at this person with appreciation. He had a deep impression of this man; it was this person who had stopped that hotheaded youth earlier. Although his words now seemed a bit fawning, they weren't annoying. After all, who doesn't like hearing pleasant words?
"You're not bad. May I ask your name?" Qin Yang replied.
"President Qin is too kind. My humble surname is Zhang, and my full name is Zhang Zhenlin. You can just call me Little Zhang." Seeing that he had piqued Qin Yang's interest, Zhang Zhenlin became even more humble.
"Officer Zhang is too polite. Then I'll follow Officer Zhang's suggestion and go to the mediation room." Qin Yang also felt the statement room was a bit small; with so many people staying together, it was indeed very stuffy.
"Good, good, good. President Qin, follow me!" Zhang Zhenlin hurriedly led the way.
