The Magnificent Son-in-law

Chapter 18: Arrested



In the luxurious private room next to Room 503, Zhou Dong and Shen Tianze were almost going mad from waiting. The former paced back and forth like an ant on a hot pan, while the latter's brow furrowed tighter and tighter.

"What the hell is going on?" Shen Tianze finally lost his patience. "Don't tell me something went wrong."

Zhou Dong was startled and quickly said, "Mr. Shen, please be patient. I'll send someone to check right away."

However, at this moment, screams finally came from the next room.

Zhou Dong and Shen Tianze exchanged glances, both feeling overjoyed; it worked!

Shen Tianze coldly smirked, "As long as we send that bumpkin in, I have a thousand ways to make sure he won't come out alive."

Zhou Dong immediately picked up the walkie-talkie and said, "Bring the people in."

At the same time, the door of Room 503, where Xiao Feng was, was kicked open. The hotel manager, dressed in a suit, rushed in with a dozen security guards.

Upon entering, they saw Chu Mengting curled up naked in a corner, her hair in disarray, covered only by a thin coat, while Xiao Feng sat nonchalantly on a chair.

The hotel manager shouted, "Call the police immediately."

The security guards who rushed in surrounded Xiao Feng, while he simply sat on the table, showing no sign of guilt or intention to escape.

At this moment, a team of police officers burst in, almost following the hotel manager and his people foot by foot, which further confirmed the issue. After all, this wasn't a police station, so there's no reason for the police to appear so quickly.

Xiao Feng remained composed, with a cold smile, he said, "The whole chain of arrangements is quite tight-knit, a full-service package?"

The leading police officer, Zhao Xingfeng, with years of experience handling cases, furrowed his brows and said sternly after hearing Xiao Feng's words, "Shut up! Committing a crime and still so arrogant, you truly are mad."

Several police officers helped Chu Mengting up from the corner, taking her outside to calm her emotions and ask questions.

Zhao Xingfeng stared at Xiao Feng, who was sitting on the table, and harshly demanded, "Confess your crimes honestly, maybe you'll get a reduced sentence."

Xiao Feng shrugged, with an indifferent demeanor, "What is there to confess? Didn't you all just see? Let's go."

This behavior left the police officers and the hotel's security guards in the room staring at each other, feeling a sense of unreality.

Even Zhao Xingfeng, with years of experience, couldn't help but be stunned. He had seen many criminals, but one who remained unfazed facing arrest, and even eager to be caught, was indeed a first.

After a brief silence, Zhao Xingfeng ordered his men to cuff Xiao Feng and take him back for questioning.

However, Xiao Feng shook his head, "Don't bother, even if you cuff me, you won't hold me."

The police couldn't help but chuckle. They've seen arrogant criminals, but this level of arrogance was a bit too much.

A brawny police officer took off the handcuffs from his waist and strode over to Xiao Feng.

Xiao Feng cooperatively offered his hands, yet the expression on his face was a half-smile, which inevitably made one wonder if he really had the ability to open the handcuffs?

"Click, click!"

The handcuffs were already locked onto Xiao Feng's wrists, and the police officers laughed, "Didn't you say you'd break free even if you were cuffed?"

"Yeah, show us how you'll open them."

"Who can't brag? If he really had such skills, would he have been caught by us?"

Just as everyone expressed disdain, Xiao Feng suddenly laughed, "Watch closely, make sure not to blink."

The police and security guards, as if hearing the biggest joke, again erupted into laughter, "Keep bragging, we're dying to see how you'll open the handcuffs."

Yet the next moment, the laughter abruptly stopped, everyone was looking at the handcuffs in Xiao Feng's hands in shock, as if they'd seen a ghost.

"Now, do you believe what I said?" Xiao Feng flicked the handcuffs and securely caught them in his hand, handing them over to the brawny police officer: "Officer, returning your property."

The police officer dumbfoundedly took the handcuffs, his face nearly going blank, because he was the closest to Xiao Feng, also the one who saw the clearest.

But even so, he couldn't understand how Xiao Feng, like performing magic, managed to free his wrists from the handcuffs.

A moment later, another police officer came over, disbelieving as he said, "Let me try, I just won't believe this kid has some supernatural ability?"

As a result, a minute later, all the security guards and police in the room were unsettled because Xiao Feng had once again undone the handcuffs.

If the first time was a fluke, the second time clearly couldn't be explained away as a mere coincidence.

Zhao Xingfeng's expression was as dark as the bottom of a pot, he had never seen anyone with such skills, sure this is a person, not a monster?!

But no matter what, this matter still had to be dealt with, Zhao Xingfeng said with a steely face, "Then without handcuffs it is, just bring him back to the station first."

A group of people grandly surrounded Xiao Feng out of the hotel, put him in the police car, and drove off...

However, outside the hotel entrance, a middle-aged man with graying hair and a beautiful young woman watched the departing police car, both unable to suppress their surprise.

The two were none other than Xiao Feng's second uncle Zhou Jiwen and Zhang Wan, who had come for the banquet.

"What is going on?" Zhou Jiwen said with an ugly expression, starting to feel anxious.

Zhang Wan sighed in her heart; she was still one step too late.

She had accidentally overheard Zhou Dong plotting against Xiao Feng, and she had hurriedly rushed over to warn him to be careful, but unexpectedly the scene she saw upon arriving was Xiao Feng being taken away in the police car.

"Uncle..." Zhang Wan hesitated, wanting to tell Zhou Jiwen that Xiao Feng was taken away because of Zhou Dong's trap.

But she couldn't manage to say it because she lacked solid evidence, and Zhou Jiwen wouldn't believe her just based on her words.

Just at this moment, Zhou Dong rushed out of the hotel, looking urgent, "Dad, why are you here now?"

"What's going on?" Zhou Jiwen asked anxiously, "I just think I saw Xiao Feng being taken away by the police."

"Sigh, you really can't judge a book by its cover." Zhou Dong said excitedly, "When I tell you, you must brace yourself."

"Go on," Zhou Jiwen replied with a stern face.

"Xiao Feng actually raped a female college student in broad daylight, the scene was something you had to see." Zhou Dong said excitedly, "You misjudged him before. Xiao Feng seems upright on the outside, but inside he's completely depraved."

"Are you telling the truth?" Zhou Jiwen couldn't help but confirm.

Zhou Dong immediately replied, "Absolutely true, otherwise why would the police take him away."

Zhou Jiwen fell silent, after a moment he struck the ground with his walking stick and closed his eyes, "How could this child be so muddleheaded?"

Seeing Zhou Jiwen accept his explanation, Zhou Dong laughed inwardly, but outwardly he put on a facade of heartbreak and indignation.

Zhang Wan, watching all this coldly, gritted her teeth, knowing very well the real issue here, but she had no way to prove Xiao Feng's innocence.
