At this moment,the bald- headed Captain Wang and Wyman Han looked at the uniformed officers in front of them. They were dumbfounded, as the officers who had arrived were not the members of his security task force, but a real police officer. This was Officer Zhang of the police bureau.
In an instant, both their foreheads oozed a thin layer of sweat. They were completely flabbergasted and could not move.
"Officer Zhang, why are you here?"
"Officer Zhang, I was just joking. Just speaking in jest."
Officer Zhang snorted loudly and said, "Are you kidding me? This doesn't seem like a joke!"
After that, Officer Zhang made a gesture with his hand and shouted, "Arrest them all!"
Immediately, the police officers rushed over and arrested Captain Wang, Wyman Han, Department Head Liu, Brett Han,the village head and their cohorts.
"Officer Zhang, what crime did I commit? Why am I under arrest?" Wyman Han protested his
innocence.
Officer Zhang bellowed in a cold tone, "What crime? Didn't you order some gangsters to beat people up and smash their cars in the village?"
At this time, the village head also protested, "Officer Zhang, I was forced to make a trip here. I have nothing to do with this matter!"
"You misused your power in the matter of the land acquisition. Do I need to spell it out for you?" Officer Zhang replied in anger. The village head was completely frightened and did not dare to protest anymore.
Captain Wang and Department Head Liu also wanted to defend themselves,but Officer Zhang did not allow them to speak. He snorted and said, " You don't need to say anything else. It's a great offense to use public funds and your official power for corrupt purposes."
After he had finished speaking, Officer Zhang turned around to face Fade. He said in a respectful tone, "Mr. Chen, we await your instructions."
At this sight, Wyman Han and the others were completely stunned. They didn't expect Officer Zhang to be so polite towards Fade Chen. And observing his behavior, this was not just good manners, but even respect and deference. He gave the impression that he was speaking to someone of a much higher status than him.
For a moment, their hearts sank, and they kept asking themselves, "Who is this fellow really?"
On the other hand, Fade declined with a gesture of his hand and said without emotion, "My instructions aren't necessary in this situation, you can just abide by the law and deal with them impartially."
Officer Zhang nodded. He looked at Xenia Xu and her mother, and said, "The land acquisition by the Xu family, to construct a farm, has been authorized by the mayor of the town. I made a phone call just now. He will support the business and approve the corresponding tax deductions."
"That is great news indeed!" Xenia and her mother were surprised and overjoyed.
Wyman Han and his cohorts were even more shocked when they heard about this turn of events. Not only was Officer Zhang on Fade's side, but even the mayor was favoring him. What kind of background did that fellow come from, in order to wield such great influence over these leaders?
The situation at hand seemed under control, therefore, Fade proceeded to leave with the others.
As he walked to the door, Fade suddenly remembered something. He turned his head and stood still, saying, "I almost forgot, Officer Zhang. I heard that those gangsters are actually workers at Mr. Han's quarry. In that case, we have to investigate the quarry thoroughly as well."
Officer Zhang nodded quickly and said, "Mr. Chen, no worries at all. I will investigate the matter thoroughly." He then accompanied Fade and his companions out of the hotel. After he had respectfully sent them off, he turned around and walked back into the room.
Officer Zhang looked sternly at Wyman Han and his cohorts. He gestured with his hand and said, "Take them away!"
Wyman Han quickly said, "Officer Zhang, this matter is really just a misunderstanding!"
Captain Wang also spoke up quickly, "Officer Zhang, this is just a small matter, why be up in arms over it?"
