"Pah, pah, pah... What bad luck!" Li Yang spat a few times and quickly disappeared. He flashed past a jianbing (Chinese crepe) stall, then headed straight for the entrance of the hotel he had just been at.
Sure enough, police lights flashed at the entrance, and officers stormed into the hotel, making a scene as they announced a raid on prostitution. Screw you!
A jianbing (Chinese crepe) stand. The owner glared and yelled, "Damn it, where are they? Who stole them? Who stole them?" Then he suddenly stopped. A hundred-yuan bill was fluttering in the wind on his stall, enough to buy all his jianbing...
"Wow... this business is really good, a few more rounds, please!" The boss excitedly collected the money, muttering to himself, "Could it be fake?" He rubbed it vigorously with his fingers, it was real, but still not convinced, he took out the money detector and carefully checked it again, confirming that it was not counterfeit, and then he was overjoyed.
Li Yang hid outside the hotel entrance, calmly watching the scene unfold inside. The hotel lobby manager was almost in tears. "My God, my business! With this blatant crackdown on prostitution, who will dare book a room here anymore? It's consensual, isn't it? You're meddling in such trivial matters, with so many corrupt officials doing nothing..."
Damn it, don't do this! It's that bastard Liu Ziheng again! He's not only eating and playing for free here, but he's also ruining my business! This is so unethical! Damn it, trying to reason with government officials? I'm so unlucky...
"Director Liu, what's going on here? Can you please not do this? Please be lenient. The hotel operates legally and pays taxes on time. Director Liu, could you please not do this?" The lobby manager hurriedly came up and pleaded repeatedly, while stuffing a red envelope into Director Liu's pocket. Director Liu, a man with a face full of fat and a belly that looked like a pregnant sow seven or eight months along, felt around in his pocket with his short, stubby fingers. It was quite thick, at least over a thousand yuan. But damn it, you think you can get rid of me for a little over a thousand yuan? I'm worthless! I'll have my fill here tonight. But it's not your fault, you're just unlucky. Blame that jinx, who doesn't pick and choose hotels, choosing to stay here!
"Manager, please don't be like this. We're just exercising our law enforcement powers according to the law. We received a report from the public that someone was illegally soliciting prostitutes here. The information is accurate. We are public servants, serving the people. It's our duty to purify the spiritual civilization construction and create a relaxed and clean living and working environment for the people. Manager, please don't be like this. Watch your words and your position..." Liu Ziheng's high-sounding nonsense directly dismissed the hotel manager, who simply said, "Don't worry, it's not targeting you. Even if someone is arrested, you can continue doing business!"
"Upstairs, arrest them!" At Liu Ziheng's command, seven or eight armed police officers rushed in.
The manager was speechless and could only accept his bad luck. But there was a strong smell of alcohol! Aren't police prohibited from drinking during law enforcement? Damn it, so much for promoting moral civilization! You bunch of scum!
Li Yang, carrying a bag of jianbing guozi (Chinese crepes), hid by the door, watching with a smile. He even took one out to eat, but after one bite, he stopped. Damn, it smelled so strongly of chives! I bet even my farts would smell like chives. I decided not to eat it.
Liu Ziheng was the last to go up, his seven- or eight-month-old belly swaying precariously. His arms were exposed, his police cap was askew, and his collar was open, revealing layers of wrinkled fat. That double chin was truly classic—perfect!
The lobby manager kept rolling his eyes. Damn it, I've been feeding you guys for nothing! You're like ungrateful dogs! You didn't even give me a heads-up before grabbing people. This is such a terrible situation, how am I supposed to explain this to the boss? My bonus! My mistress!
Liu Ziheng wandered over to the location, only to find the atmosphere strange and uncoordinated. He immediately frowned and cursed, "Are you all just standing there waiting to get your bonuses?! Damn it, arrest them!"
The deputy director was a fat man with cunning eyes. He came up to him, bowing and scraping, and whispered, "Boss Liu, something's happened."
"Something...something happened?" Liu Ziheng was stunned. Damn it, this was all according to the script, what could possibly happen?
"Yes, there was only one person in the room, a woman. That person isn't here!" the deputy director whispered.
"What?! Damn it, who leaked the information?" Liu Ziheng roared, shoving aside the deputy director and rushing into the room. "Wow, what a beautiful and sexy girl! Where did that idiot K find her? He didn't even let me have a go first? Looks like he hasn't been too lenient with his raids. I'll have to go to Paradise Bar more often. That kid's got some nerve!"
Little did he know, this was a high-class woman hired by K at a hefty price from a club. Her appearance fee alone was tens of thousands, and that was without her actually getting involved in any sexual activity. If she did, K would demand even more money. Of course, he couldn't let Liu Ziheng handle it. Damn it, that would cost tens of thousands! Even if K was stupid, he wouldn't be that foolish, would he?
He knew Li Yang wasn't an ordinary person; he must have seen plenty of women. An ordinary woman wouldn't be able to handle Li Yang, so he gritted his teeth and hired a top-tier mature woman. He never expected this to cause such an unexpected disaster. If she knew Liu Ziheng's thoughts, she'd be so frustrated she'd vomit blood!
Chapter 809: Light a Fire
"Where is he? Where is he? Have you found him?" Liu Ziheng was still in a daze, drooling on the ground. The deputy director hurriedly came over and nudged him. Liu Ziheng immediately snapped out of it and started shouting.
The shout woke the woman up instantly. She groaned and opened her eyes.
"Plop—"
This shout instantly excited everyone, including Liu Ziheng. Damn, that voice was absolutely captivating! Compared to that, their own women were practically trash with a charm rating of 0.1!
The seven or eight police officers who entered first had been eagerly anticipating the sights, but seeing their station chief's lecherous behavior, they all sighed. "Damn it, all the good cabbages have been eaten by pigs..." They were out of luck.
"Miss, where is the person who shared a room with you?" Liu Ziheng forced a gentle smile and asked softly, afraid of scaring her away if he spoke too loudly. But no matter how he tried to hide it, his inherent vulgarity and lechery were undeniable. As a top-tier princess, this beauty had seen countless men; her eyesight was sharp and ruthless. She immediately spotted Liu Ziheng's large intestine—what a piece of crap! A pile of pig dung!
"Get out of the way... What's with all this talk about men? Be careful, or I'll sue you for defamation... Get out of the way!" The beautiful woman knew she had failed, cursed her bad luck under her breath, pushed Liu Ziheng aside, and headed straight out of the room, intending to make a quick getaway.
Liu Ziheng was stunned by the beautiful woman's scolding and forgot to intercept her. If he didn't speak up, the other sober officers didn't dare to act on their own. What if Chief Liu deliberately wanted to release her? If they spoke up, he'd have no choice but to arrest her, and then he'd beat them to death!
The office lady swayed away, her rather unappealing and unstimulating body part twitching as she walked away. Liu Ziheng only realized what had happened a dozen seconds after the woman disappeared into the elevator, and he immediately flew into a rage, yelling, "You bunch of shit-eaters! Why didn't you stop her? She's an important witness!"
"Ah? Yes, Chief Liu!" Seven or eight police officers, including the deputy director, immediately jumped up and were about to rush into the elevator to intercept him, but Chief Liu shouted again, "What are you chasing? They're already gone, what's the point of catching up? Okay, back to base!"
The officers were immediately annoyed, but dared not utter a word of dissent. These were all subordinates personally trained by Liu Ziheng; those who disobeyed were fired and sent to work. These were considered his confidants, and they were involved in any mischievous or immoral acts, including bullying men and women, sharing the spoils. Their orders to Liu Ziheng were to be executed 100%.
"Hey—what are you all doing?" Li Yang, carrying a jianbing guozi (Chinese crepe), stepped out of the elevator and exclaimed in surprise when he saw a group of police officers at the door. He rushed forward and blocked their way.
"Who the hell are you?" Liu Ziheng was already furious and started cursing.
"I'm your grandpa! Who the hell are you? You think you can act all high and mighty just because you're wearing some rubbish? You're like a mouse licking a cat's ass, you're asking for it!" Li Yang wasn't afraid of him at all. He immediately started cursing, his voice a string of curses, much more fluent and satisfying than Liu Ziheng's. Clearly, he had a lot of training.
Everyone was dumbfounded. Who dared to point their finger at Liu Da and curse him? Wasn't it always Liu Da who would point his finger at someone, jumping up and down and spitting as he cursed? For a moment, everyone was stunned and didn't know how to react.
"I, I fucking... who the hell are you? Are you looking for death?" Liu Ziheng's neck suddenly became thicker than three times its normal size, his face turned as red as Guan Yu's, his eyes were almost as big as bull's testicles, and his short, thick fingers pointed at Li Yang's nose.
"Damn it, who are you? Why are you surrounding my door? And you even opened the door to my room? Let me tell you, I have important items in my room, hundreds of thousands of RMB and a lot of gems, diamonds and jewelry. If anything is missing, I will sue you immediately! And this hotel, is this the kind of security they have? What kind of nobody can just walk into my room? Did they feed my money to dogs?" Li Yang, as if he didn't even recognize what the tiger skin was or what its power was, started cursing and swearing, extremely arrogant and disrespectful.
If he's so powerful, then Liu Ziheng isn't so powerful anymore. Huh? Anyone who dares to ignore the power of this tiger skin must be a powerful figure, with a strong backer, like the Four Great Fathers. If they didn't have an incredibly powerful father, would these sons of bitches dare to be so arrogant?
The hotel manager, who had been pointed at and called a monk a bald man and had followed the hotel to check on the situation, was on the verge of tears. "God, who the hell did I offend? I run a hotel honestly, make money honestly, I don't evade taxes, and I don't provide any special services. How did I offend you? I'm more wronged than Dou E!"
"Sir, these are the local police officers, and this is Chief Liu Ziheng!" The lobby manager knew that showing up wouldn't end well; he'd probably get yelled at. Damn it, what can you expect from someone in the service industry? Damn it, we're supposed to serve people. The people who come in are all big shots, and they start swearing at you. We have to put up with it. I've practically become a ninja turtle to get this position. No, I can't get worked up today. I need to shift the blame and make Chief Liu and his team take the fall. Damn it, they're the ones who started this whole thing.
"Director Liu received a tip from an informant that there were illegal activities in your room, so he brought people up here..." With the lobby manager's explanation, damn it, it meant he had nothing to do with it? I'm a victim too! This little firecracker is pretty good.
Liu Ziheng was a complete idiot, his brain neither good nor bad. He barely scraped by after school, hanging around the streets, his mind a complete mess. Before his uncle even graduated from university and rose through the ranks of officialdom, becoming increasingly powerful and eventually transferred to this godforsaken place as district head, he and his mother also became powerful. After all, his uncle was raised single-handedly by his mother. While she might not have been a complete savior, she practically beat him until he was practically naked. His mother lost her husband early, was strong-willed, and had a fierce, shrewish personality, like Sun Erniang (a character from a Chinese folktale known for her fierce temper). She single-handedly raised them both and even put his uncle through university. Unfortunately, while his brother became successful, his son turned out to be a scoundrel. His mother could only sigh and let her son run wild. Fortunately, his brother was filial, treating his sister like a second mother, and his son like a second son, allowing them to thrive in Shuangqiao District, living a life of unparalleled success…
"Yes, sir... I received a report that there's prostitution going on here, it's extremely serious..." Liu Ziheng puffed out his chest and said seriously upon hearing the lobby manager's words. Damn it, no matter how much you puff out your chest, it's still smaller than your belly!
Chapter 810: The Tail Was Burned
"Excuse me, Director. Whose call did you receive? Where is the informant?" Li Yang naturally knew the truth. He had deliberately loitered around Paradise Bar tonight, just to seduce the bar's staff and get them to retaliate. Everything that followed was exactly as he had predicted. Something fishy was definitely going on. Damn it, he hadn't even called for any girls, and they just delivered themselves to his door, and such low-quality ones at that. If he didn't explode, then Li Yang's head was about to blow up.
"Protecting the privacy of whistleblowers is our duty as police officers. I cannot answer your question!" Liu Ziheng's neck was exposed, revealing a thick layer of flesh and a heavy double chin. Damn, that's all public money!
"Alright. So, have you caught the people you claim are involved in prostitution? Have you found anything suspicious?" Li Yang pressed on relentlessly. Damn it, Liu Ziheng, I'll cripple you sooner or later. Daring to be K's protector? Sorry, I'm a professional umbrella repairman, repairing all kinds of umbrellas, big and small!
"Um..." Liu Ziheng was dumbfounded, stammering. Damn, what major discovery? The man wasn't in the room, and the woman was too beautiful; he couldn't resist and let her leave. Now there's no witness either. How am I supposed to answer this?
The deputy director, with his small, narrow eyes, immediately shouted, "Is this room yours?"
