Chapter 560: Chapter 206: President Zhang Skyrockets to Hot Search, News Explodes!_3

”Overwhelming power and influence!”

”If this had been before the millennium, he’d definitely be a ’big tiger’ marked for special attention!”

...

And so, the scene descended into a very awkward stalemate.

Zhang Beixing, despite being a criminal, stood there backed by his powerful identity and the endorsement of both Great Xia’s official and military authorities. This meant the Tai Luo Kingdom’s special police dared not do anything to him. They didn’t even dare to touch him, fearing it would invite trouble.

However, these special police couldn’t just let Zhang Beixing go. If they did, they wouldn’t be able to explain themselves upon their return! After all, murder was still murder.

Therefore, they remained in a standoff with Zhang Beixing. When Zhang Beixing moved forward, they followed; when he stepped back, they too retreated, always maintaining a distance.

The scene was so comical that, for a moment, it was hard to tell whether Zhang Beixing was surrounded by these men or if they were being held in check by him.

Fortunately, this situation didn’t last long.

Soon, with the WEE-WOO WEE-WOO of police sirens, several police vehicles arrived and parked by the roadside. Several men in police uniforms emerged from the cars.

Upon seeing the current situation, they were shocked. Recognizing the man surrounded by the special police as Zhang Beixing, they quickly approached.

One of the men found the veteran police chief, produced his credentials, and said in fluent English, ”Hello, I am Zhou Zhenghua, the Interpol officer in charge of this case. The person you are surrounding is involved in an international crime. Please disarm immediately and hand the scene over to us for processing.”

The veteran police chief remained unmoved by these words.

Seeing this, Zhou Zhenghua frowned. He thought the chief was disagreeing and was about to produce the official documentation from the Tai Luo Kingdom when the veteran police chief finally reacted.

He snapped out of it and, looking at Zhou Zhenghua as if seeing a savior, exclaimed, ”You’re finally here! We’ve been waiting for you. I’ll leave the rest to you!”

Without waiting for Zhou Zhenghua to respond, the veteran police chief returned Zhang Beixing’s identification papers to him, then waved his hand and led the special police away as if fleeing the scene.

Only when he was in the car, watching the roadside scenery recede outside the window, did the veteran police chief finally breathe a sigh of relief.

That wasn’t easy, not easy at all!

Finally, I’ve managed to pass off Zhang Beixing, this hot potato!

Recalling the distressing experience after learning Zhang Beixing’s identity, the veteran police chief felt a wave of suffocation.

I’ve never encountered someone so thorny, so difficult to deal with. Can’t kill him, can’t arrest him. It’s truly an impossible situation!

Of course, this was mainly because the Tai Luo Kingdom itself was too insignificant—a small nation bordering Great Xia, plagued by an unstable regime and constant internal strife. If this were a Western country, or some other major sovereign nation, they naturally wouldn’t be so wary of Great Xia’s official backing. But there was no helping it; the Tai Luo Kingdom was just that pathetic.

The veteran police chief cursed under his breath, Damn it, those higher-ups really know how to pick assignments for me. Asking me to arrest someone like him? What’s the difference between that and sending me to my death?

His sentiment was clear: whoever wanted to deal with Zhang Beixing could have at it; he, for one, was washing his hands of the matter.

Meanwhile, Zhou Zhenghua watched the departing vehicles, a bewildered expression on his face.

Seriously? I said I’d take over the case, but did they really need to bolt that quickly? They could have at least done a handover, told me what happened before! What the hell is going on?! What on earth did Zhang Beixing do to you all before I got here to make you react like this?!

Zhou Zhenghua’s mouth twitched; he clearly couldn’t make heads or tails of the situation.

But they had all left by car. Trying to stop them now was unrealistic. Fortunately, Zhang Beixing and his companions were still standing before him, so he could get the information he needed from them.

With this in mind, Zhou Zhenghua took several deep breaths to compose himself, then looked at Zhang Beixing and began to inquire about the specifics of the situation here.

However, there wasn’t much to discuss, as the Great Xia police called shortly thereafter, coordinating directly with Interpol.

And Zhang Beixing, as a result, was able to extricate himself smoothly.

「March 15, 2019.」

It was just after the New Year, and college students had been back at school for less than a month. During this time, a major international news story broke, appearing on all major news outlets in Great Xia.

”SHOCKING! A heinous kidnapping recently occurred in the Tai Luo Kingdom.”

”Tai Luo Kingdom police colluded with a criminal organization, disregarded the law, and brazenly kidnapped residents of our country.”

”Now, with the assistance of a member of the Great Xia Martial Arts Association and Interpol, all suspects involved have been brought to justice.”

”According to reports from the scene, in this case, over forty suspects died, and ten were seriously injured. Our country’s residents have been successfully rescued. The Great Xia Martial Arts Association member is unharmed. All rescued individuals and the association member have been transferred to the Great Xia Embassy and are expected to return to the country today.”
