Urban Soldier Young Master

Chapter 743: Putting on the Hat



With a stern face, Mu Lingshan walked to the desk where the suspect was being interrogated, sat down in the chair, and her gaze swept across the room like a knife over several police officers.

"I think we need a reasonable explanation."

Noticing the change in Mu Lingshan's demeanor, Deputy Director Zhou felt a tightness in his heart. Hearing her speak, his heart skipped a beat. It seemed like Miss Mu was clearly going to have a word with him!

"I... a misunderstanding, it's really just a misunderstanding."

"Ha... don't you think those two words are particularly awkward and pale? If I'm not mistaken, you should have been instigated by someone to take this opportunity to smear Secretary Mu, right?"

"I didn't..."

Before Deputy Director Zhou could finish his trembling words, Mu Lingshan's eyebrows arched sharply, and with a stern look, she slammed the table, "You really have some nerve!"

"Thud!"

Deputy Director Zhou's legs gave out, he collapsed to the ground, as pale as a ghost. As soon as his butt hit the ground, he let out a scream.

Immediately after, it was as if he had springs in his legs and he jumped up again, his facial expression distorted, one hand covering his rear, the other supporting the wall, barely letting his limp legs support his body.

Big sister! Auntie! Ancestor! You can't just accuse people without reason, can you? As a mere deputy director of a police station, how much fake liquor would I have to drink to do something so reckless?

Deputy Director Zhou was truly panic-stricken now, his limbs cold, almost scared by Mu Lingshan to the point of wetting his pants.

Seeing Deputy Director Zhou holding his rear, Mu Lingshan's eyelids twitched a little, goosebumps almost rising on her arms. She glanced sideways at Chu Ge, wondering what exactly he had done to him, could it be...

Mu Lingshan's imagination ran wild, and she still got goosebumps, feeling utterly disgusted inside.

"Miss Mu, you can't just randomly accuse people like this, can you? I was just enforcing the law impartially. Before you came here, I didn't even know who you were."

Mu Lingshan regained her composure and gave Deputy Director Zhou a cold smile, "So what you're saying... if I wasn't Secretary Mu's granddaughter, you would have rushed to judgment, accused me and my friend of prostitution? I understand that correctly, right?"

Although that was indeed the situation, how could Deputy Director Zhou possibly admit it? He quickly shook his head like a rattle drum, "No, of course not."

"Oh... so you're saying, I wronged you, the real situation is that you received a report from the public, then barged into my friend's room with your men, and now, after confirming our identities, you realize it was just a misunderstanding, is that right?"

Deputy Director Zhou felt a little relieved, quickly nodded like pounding garlic, "Yes, yes, that's right."

"Oh... do I look easily deceived?"

"Yes, yes..." Deputy Director Zhou continued nodding out of habit, agreeing several times before realizing it was wrong and immediately started shaking his head frantically. "No, no! I'm not lying, what I said is true!"

Mu Lingshan stared at Deputy Director Zhou for a few seconds, suddenly sneered, took out her phone from her handbag, and dialed the number she had just given Deputy Director Zhou.

Before leaving that interrogation room, Mu Lingshan had carefully checked her handbag and taken it back with her.

She might not be particularly cunning, but as a police officer, she naturally wouldn't leave a chance for others to tamper with her bag to frame her.

The call was quickly answered, "Tingting, is your dad home? Mm, there's something going on, someone wants to frame him, I'm not joking with you, yes..."

Hearing these words from Mu Lingshan, the faces of several police officers in the room turned even paler. If they still had a last shred of hope before, Mu Lingshan's call shattered that hope completely!

"This is absolutely not true!" Deputy Director Zhou was almost frantic, shouted loudly, and charged towards Mu Lingshan, targeting the phone in her hand.

However, he had just made two steps when the back of his head was hit hard, falling to the ground in a classic "face plant".

Chu Ge tossed the book "Crime and Punishment" from his hand, watching Deputy Director Zhou fall with a thud, and finally stood up from his chair. Then, gripping the chair's backrest edge, he dragged the chair step by step towards Deputy Director Zhou.

In this oppressive, or rather eerie atmosphere, the sudden sound of the chair legs scraping against the floor was particularly sinister.

"What... what do you want to do?"

Deputy Director Zhou suddenly lifted his head, looking sideways at Chu Ge with a face full of dirt and dust, and despite the two streams of scarlet nosebleed flowing from his nostrils, he did not bother to wipe them.

He shrank his body away from Chu Ge, using both hands and feet, his eyes filled with intense fear. Just a moment ago, he had been tortured miserably by Chu Ge, and with the current situation, it would be strange if he wasn't scared.

Unfortunately, the more he wanted to keep his distance from Chu Ge, the weaker his legs became, and his arms had no strength to support his body. He could only watch helplessly as Chu Ge got closer, listening to the increasingly loud noise of the chair legs echoing in his ears.

Chu Ge walked over to Deputy Director Zhou but didn't even glance at him. He picked up the book directly, continued dragging the chair, and brought it to the door of the interrogation room, sitting down carelessly.

"Alright, just wait here then. It's best to stay quiet; I don't like being disturbed while reading. If you really want to communicate, you can do it with eye contact."

Chu Ge glanced sideways at a few police officers, said absentmindedly, then opened the book and started reading with great interest.

"Thud!" The female police officer who had just been questioning Mu Lingshan fell to the ground.

"Thud!" The black-faced policeman also went down.

"Thud!" Officer Xiao Li followed suit.

They finally realized that this guy intended to block the door, preventing them from leaving the room or having a chance to discuss what to say next!

"Thump, thump, thump..." Glancing at Chu Ge who sat there leisurely, and then looking at Mu Lingshan's frosty face, the officers blocking the door instinctively took a few steps back, exchanged glances for a few seconds, and then scattered like birds and animals.

In less than twenty minutes, a piercing siren sounded outside the police station. A Hongqi car, an Iveco with a siren flashing police lights with the words "SWAT" on its body, and a military jeep roared in together.

Three sharp brake sounds rang out one after another. The three vehicles blocked the police station's gate tightly. As soon as the doors of the police car and the jeep opened, a total of a dozen armed personnel in black and green uniforms, SWAT and armed police respectively, rushed out.

The Hongqi was the first to stop, but its door was the last to open. Immediately, a tall young woman in her twenties with fiery eyebrows and a fiery look strode out.

She was none other than Mu Chongyi's only daughter. Although she was the same age as Mu Lingshan and even a few days younger, in terms of seniority, Mu Lingshan had to call her "cousin," Mu Xiaoting.

When Mu Xiaoting received the call from Mu Lingshan, her first reaction was a bit confused. However, since Mu Lingshan sounded so serious, she immediately reported the matter to her father, Mu Chongyi.

Having been in the political arena for many years, Mu Chongyi certainly wasn't the type to panic at the slightest disturbance. Even with a little thinking, he felt there was something fishy about this.

There were certainly people who wanted to target him, but using such a tactic, wasn't it a bit lacking in sophistication? So, he thought, this must be a misunderstanding.

Misunderstanding or not, this situation certainly wasn't merely a misunderstanding.

Although Mu Chongyi didn't have much contact with his older brother's treasured granddaughter, he prided himself on having some understanding of Mu Lingshan.

Never mind that this girl, Mu Lingshan, was full of zeal at work and passionate about fighting crime, but when it came to her own identity, she was extremely low-key.

Mu Lingshan was nothing like some of the younger generation who, once they have a strong backing, want the whole world to know about it. In fact, regarding their grandfather-granddaughter relationship, she even harbored a bit of resistance, or rather, she didn't take it as a point of pride but of shame.

However... for Mu Lingshan to bring up his name today, that was something worth pondering. There were two possibilities that would make her reveal her identity like this.

First, she encountered a problem she couldn't solve.

Second, someone had the audacity to touch her reversed scale, throwing her into extreme anger.

No matter which of the two it was, Mu Chongyi couldn't just leave her to fend for herself. On his territory, to his elder brother's granddaughter? Did they think he was just a puppet governor?

Moreover, he always felt he owed his elder brother, and from the bottom of his heart, he liked and admired Mu Lingshan. This girl was exactly like his elder brother, so upright and stubborn.

Since he no longer had the chance to earn his elder brother's forgiveness, all he could do was compensate through Mu Lingshan for the mistakes he made in his youth.

But, if he were to involve himself, he had to do so strategically. If he, a dignified governor, personally went to the police station, while it would surely support Mu Lingshan plenty, it wouldn't be quite the right approach, would it?

After pondering for a moment, Mu Chongyi handed the task over to his daughter, "Tingting, you and Xiao Xu should take a trip. Remember, don't make a big scene, but also don't let Lingshan be bullied. In short, keep things in control."

Upon hearing this, Mu Xiaoting knew what to do. As Mu Chongyi's daughter, she naturally understood her father's ways quite well. According to Mu Chongyi's habits, he liked to put significant issues in the back.

For instance, the phrase "don't do this, and also don't do that," meant that the part after "also" was the most important.
