Upon learning Lin Yu's identity, Chen Peng immediately cowered.
What is the identity of the young marshal of Fengfu?
Can a mere police headquarters compare?
They're worlds apart!
The commanders-in-chief of each state in the Great Xia Dynasty were, without exaggeration, the Ten Kings of Hell.
If Lin Yu is Yama, then he's nothing more than a ox-headed and horse-faced demon, utterly unworthy of respect.
"Oh, young marshal, it's you! I'm so sorry!"
Chen Peng's attitude changed completely, and he said with a forced smile, "Young Marshal, I didn't mean any harm. I just thought, how could such a small case trouble you to handle it personally!"
Lin Yu snorted, "If I didn't interrogate him personally, wouldn't you have taken him back to Yandu and released him without charge in a few days? Wouldn't that be right?"
"Uh..." Chen Peng was momentarily speechless, then laughed awkwardly, "How could this be... We are public servants, enforcers of the law, how could we allow such a thing to happen!"
Lin Yu said coldly, "I'm not going to waste my breath on you! You can't handle this matter. Tell your nephew that I'll personally handle this case, and tell him not to get himself into trouble!"
Snap!
Lin Yu hung up the phone immediately after speaking.
Chen Peng looked very unwell. After thinking for a moment, he quickly called his nephew.
Zhang Hongxing answered the phone and asked with a smile, "Uncle, is everything settled?"
"What the hell! Do you even know who the Sun family father and son have offended?" Chen Peng said angrily.
Zhang Hongxing was taken aback for a moment, then frowned and said, "Isn't he just a minor section chief in Guanzhong?"
"A mere section chief?" Chen Peng sneered, saying irritably, "Let me tell you the truth, that section chief is nothing but someone else's dog! He's backed by the young marshal of Feng Prefecture!"
"What?" Zhang Hongxing was shocked.
Chen Peng snorted coldly and reminded him, "I'm warning you, these are turbulent times. The relationship between the Feng family and the Wu family is very delicate, and the war situation in the Northeast is even more important to the overall stability. You absolutely cannot offend Lin Yu. Don't stir up trouble, understand?"
"Uncle..."
"Alright! That's all I have to say. You know what I mean. Bye!" Chen Peng said, hanging up the phone.
Zhang Hongxing's expression became unpredictable.
Inside the private room, a group of elegantly dressed men and women with distinguished bearing sat in a circle.
They all noticed that something was wrong with Zhang Hongxing, and their voices gradually quieted down.
"Red Star, what's wrong?"
A woman with an air of a wealthy young lady standing nearby asked, "Isn't he just a minor section chief from Guanzhong? You couldn't even handle him?"
Zhang Hongxing made a phone call earlier without hiding it from them, so they all guessed what was going on.
Another young man with sword-like eyebrows couldn't help but say, "Hongxing, what's wrong? Just tell me. I made quite a few connections while I was patrolling Guanzhong. I can help you!"
Zhang Hongxing glanced up at him and said irritably, "Isn't it all because of your good brother!"
"You mean... Lin Yu?" Lin Chuang frowned, his face turning grim.
Although he had been in Yandu for some time, he had never forgotten his hatred for Lin Yu.
The hatred for killing one's mother is irreconcilable!
He said fiercely, "Hongxing, you've misunderstood. He's not my brother. He's just a bastard. Sooner or later, I will fight my way back to Fengtian, twist off his head, and make it into an oil lamp to offer as a sacrifice to my mother!!"
His maternal grandfather, Wu Tiande, had promised him that once the covert war ended, he would discard Lin Yuanlong after he had served his purpose and find a way to take back Lin Yuanlong's military power, so that he could return to Fengtian as the commander-in-chief!
He is the future King of Northeast China!
Several scions of prominent families were present, and they were all very familiar with Lin Chuang's affairs.
They all knew that Lin Chuang's younger brother was now holding an important position in the Fengtian Army, holding the title of Young Marshal, and was at the height of his power.
"Hmph, just a smug little man. Brother Chuang will surely kill this brat one day!"
"How can the son of a mere commander compare to the scions of noble families like us?"
"The higher you're lifted up, the harder you fall. A wild brat with no real foundation will eventually become dust beneath the feet of our noble families!"
Several people spoke with disdain.
At this moment, the woman beside her comforted her, "Hongxing, it's just the Sun family, isn't it? Just leave it alone this time. It's just a small aristocratic family; let them fend for themselves!"
Zhang Hongxing shook his head.
His relationship with the Sun family was actually quite unusual.
The Sun family's support in business would be beneficial for him in his bid for the position of family head.
Among his advisors, the Sun family were considered key figures.
If he can't even protect his own trusted advisors, what will his families who follow him think of him?
Where should Young Master Zhang put his face?
In addition, he has shares in some of the Sun family's businesses, which are essentially his money bags!
Thinking of this, Zhang Hongxing picked up the phone again and said to the woman next to him, "It's okay! I'll make a call myself. I'm sure if I tell him who I am, this country bumpkin will give me some face!"
"That's right! Who is Young Master Zhang? How dare a mere young marshal from Feng Prefecture not give him face?"
"Exactly! Calling him is already giving him a huge favor!"
"He'd probably love to come and fawn over our young master!"
Everyone started flattering him.
Zhang Hongxing let out a smug sneer, thinking that everyone was right. After all, he, Zhang Hongxing, was the head of the Four Young Masters of Yandu! His reputation was well-known!
When this guy receives his call, he'll definitely give him some face.
So he immediately dialed the phone number of the Sun family father and son. He even put it on speakerphone.
However, at this moment, at the Guanzhong Police Station, Sun Deqi and his son knelt on the ground, trembling, with cold sweat pouring down their faces.
The father and son, Lin Yu and Chen Peng, had overheard the entire conversation.
