Chapter 26: Severe Punishment and Forced Confession

  In the interrogation room of the police station, two policemen were taking notes for Tang Xiaofeng, while Liu Xudong and instructor Li Wei were discussing in the next room.

  "Director, I asked Er Lang earlier and he said that as long as we take care of this kid, the monthly protection fee will increase by 20,000 yuan. He's also prepared your share." Er Lang is a small-time hoodlum in Tengyang City, collecting protection fees from shops on Pedestrian Street, and usually gets along with Li Wei and others. This time, his younger brother got into trouble, and he sent someone to teach Tang Xiaofeng a lesson, but didn't expect it would escalate so much, making him extremely angry.

  "In that case, what else can be said? You go deal with it, this kid is quite bold to dare attack a police officer."

  "But......" Liu Xudong looked embarrassed.

  Li Wei looked at him: "What's wrong, is there something troubling you?"

  Liu Xudong looked at Li Wei and said, "Director, just now a woman ran away. Although we don't know who she is, if someone comes to the police station looking for her later, what should we do? Also, there are still many onlookers at the scene, we..."

  "What are you afraid of? I'm here if anything happens." Li Wei sneered, "Isn't that kid a cop killer? Teach him a lesson and let him roll over, let Er Duan handle it himself outside."

  Li Wei said so, Liu Xudong smiled and walked out of the instructor's office, letting the two interrogated people leave, and he took two trusted men into the interrogation room.

  Arriving at the Nanguan police station, Tang Xiaofeng was very cooperative and quickly finished the written record. However, when Liu Xudong arrived, the first thing he did was tear up all the records they had just made and throw them into the trash can.

  Tang Xiaofeng took one look and knew what was going on, but he wasn't worried because just now he had asked Li Na to call his younger brother and Guo Zhi Cheng, they should be arriving soon.

  As Liu Xudong walked towards him with two subordinates, Tang Xiaofeng smiled and stood up: "What do you want to do? You'd better think carefully, I've already made a record, severe torture is not allowed by law."

  "Hah! Law? ... You're talking to me about law." Looking at Tang Xiaofeng's hands still being cuffed, Liu Xudong sneered and said: "I'll teach you what the law is." Then, he lifted his foot and kicked Tang Xiaofeng's left hand wrapped in gauze.

  Tang Xiao Feng suddenly squatted down, and when Liu Xue Dong's leg was completely lifted up, Tang Xiao Feng rushed forward and used his shoulder to carry Liu Xue Dong's crotch.

  "Ah......" Liu Xudong fell backwards, his hands covering his crotch as he let out a loud wail.

  Tang Xiaofeng took advantage of the momentum to stand up from his squatting position, and with a burst of speed, he rushed to the right side. The policeman on the right was just about to reach for the electric baton in his waist when Tang Xiaofeng's head collided with his chest, sending him flying towards the interrogation table behind him.

  Another police officer had already drawn his electric baton and was approaching Tang Xiaofeng, who took a swift step back to the chair he had been sitting in earlier. With both hands, he lifted the chair and swung it at the officer's arm holding the baton. The officer saw Tang Xiaofeng dodge to the side and raise the chair, but it was too late for him to retract his arm. The chair landed squarely on the officer's arm with a loud "thud", causing the electric baton to drop from his hand. Tang Xiaofeng then stepped forward and struck the officer's collarbone with a knife-hand, knocking him unconscious.

  Tang Xiao Feng swiftly retrieved a set of keys from the man's body and quickly unlocked his handcuffs. The person who had been knocked to the ground by Tang Xiao Feng earlier got up, also holding a chair, and swung it at Tang Xiao Feng. Tang Xiao Feng dodged to the side, and as the police officer rushed past him, he struck the back of the officer's neck with a knife-hand, causing the officer to fall forward limply.

  Li Wei was smoking in the courtyard, humming a tune and thinking about how much he should prepare for this time to squeeze Er Leng. Suddenly, he saw Tang Xiaofeng push open the door of the interrogation room and walk out, with no injuries on his body. He immediately felt that something was not right and hastily shouted: "Come on, quickly catch him."

  All the police officers on duty in the interrogation room rushed out, and at this moment, two police cars with sirens blaring rushed into the Nanguan Police Station. Li Wei took a look at the license plate and saw that it was a car from the Municipal Bureau.

  The car door opened, and Tang Zhengming jumped out of the car. Li Wei hurriedly shouted: "Captain Tang, this kid has ambushed the police twice, you're just in time to help catch..." Li Wei saw the look in Tang Zhengming's eyes and suddenly couldn't continue speaking. That gaze seemed to be murderous! Oh no, it can't be, he wouldn't be here to pick up this kid, would he? Just as Instructor Li Wei was still wondering, Captain Tang had already proven his guess correct with his actions.

  Tang Zhengming strode towards Tang Xiaofeng, "How did your left hand get hurt?" Tang Zhengming asked anxiously as he saw the bandage wrapped around Tang Xiaofeng's left hand. Li Na also quickly got out of the police car and walked over to Tang Xiaofeng, looking at him with concern, asking if he was injured.

  "Never mind that, I was arrested for gathering a crowd to fight with weapons." Tang Xiao Feng said, and Captain Tang immediately understood. With a wave of his hand, four criminal police officers who had been brought along immediately left the group and headed towards the interrogation room.

  In an instant, the four of them walked out, with three people supporting Liu Xudong and other police officers. One person walked in front of Tang Zhengming and whispered a few words to him. As Tang Zhengming listened to the team member's report, his face became increasingly ugly, just as he was about to get angry, suddenly a procuratorate car also drove into the Nanguan Police Station.

  Li Wei's face turned waxen, and he silently cursed Liu Xudong, that bastard, for bringing this jinx. The car door opened and Guo Zhicheng got out with a man around 37 or 38 years old. Guo Zhicheng saw Tang Xiaofeng and rushed over to him.

  The man who got off the car with Guo Zhicheng was Hou Bin, the captain of the procuratorate's judicial police brigade. Before he could figure out what was going on, Guo Zhicheng pulled him out of the procuratorate and said that a friend had something to deal with and needed help, but didn't tell Hou what it was about, and took him to the Nanguan Police Station.

  Hou Bin saw Tang Zhengming, the captain of the criminal police brigade, also at the scene and was taken aback. He thought to himself that he still didn't know what was going on and had been dragged here by Guo Zhicheng before he could even figure out what was happening beforehand.

  Tang Zhengming saw that Hou Bin had also arrived at the Nanguan police station, and he was puzzled. He thought to himself, "When did the judicial police become so powerful?" As he watched Guo Zhicheng approach Tang Xiaofeng, he quickly pulled Tang Xiaofeng behind him and stepped forward to block their path, glaring at Guo Zhicheng and Hou Bin. He thought to himself, "I don't care about your tricks, anyway I have more people now. Let's see what you want to do."

  Kwok Chi-hung saw Tong Zhengming react to him like this, and he couldn't help but stop in his tracks, looking at Tang Xiaofeng thinking that this kid must have offended the criminal police somehow. The woman who called earlier clearly said it was someone from the police station who took away Tang Xiaofeng.

  Tang Xiao Feng saw that his younger brother might have misunderstood, so he hastily pulled on the uniform his younger brother was wearing and walked forward, pulling Guo Zhi Cheng along: "Younger brother, this is my friend." Tang Zheng Ming's face, which had been tense with anger, immediately relaxed, and he smiled as he sized up Guo Zhi Cheng and Hou Bin, especially Hou Bin, who normally didn't get along with people, but now looked so lovable.

  Guo Zhicheng glanced at Tang Zhengming, that skin-deep smile, and quickly turned his face to ask Tang Xiaofeng what was going on. At the same time, Hou Bin also understood the relationship in front of him, stepped forward and shook hands with Tang Zhengming: "This matter, let them handle it themselves?" Tang Zhengming nodded, after all, he didn't want to make a big deal out of it either, just come back and bring people to catch those who made trouble.

  At this time, the director of the Nanguan police station finally arrived at the Nanguan police station. He saw Tang Zhengming busy apologizing and explaining, but Tang Zhengming had lost interest in listening to him. Fortunately, Tang Xiaofeng was fine, otherwise he would have been scolded by Old Man Tang when he got back. Xiaofeng's friend had also called Hou Bin, the head of the judicial police brigade, so someone would handle the matter. Therefore, Tang Zhengming didn't bother asking any more questions and just exchanged polite pleasantries with Hou Bin before they each left.
