Chapter 85: In Hiding
“Ha ha, Nie Zhenbang, do you think this place is the Nie family’s territory? If I lay a hand on you, what can you do? Do you think you can even walk out of here?” The police officer who stood up ready to take action burst into mockery after hearing Nie Zhenbang’s words.
Nie Zhenbang sneered coldly, and a chill emerged in his eyes. In this life, Nie
Zhenbang had never experienced such rage. Staring at the police officer, Nie
Zhenbang slowly threatened, “Let’s see if you have the guts to try. I, Nie Zhenbang, am making myself clear today. If you dare lay a finger on me, as long as I don’t die, I swear I will annihilate your whole family!”
Dominating and confident, that’s Nie Zhenbang. Just now, amidst the dark circumstances, Nie Zhenbang carefully reconsidered the so-called three major sins. As for the so-called crime of embezzlement of national assets, it’s totally unfounded. Nie Zhenbang’s shipment, although it does not have legal import and export procedures, does not exist in the domestic arms list either. So there is no issue of selling national assets.
As for smuggling, it could barely be counted, except, currently, there is no trade between Huaxia and the Soviet Union, so there’s no question of taxation. It’s a gray area as to how to levy taxes on trade with countries that are diplomatically severed. When it comes to exporting, he had used the channel of Huaxia Arms Trading Company and followed standard customs procedures.
There’s no smuggling involved.
The last crime, secretly having foreign connections, could perhaps hold during the time of ‘The Great Revolution’ amid the fervent atmosphere. But now? Nie Zhenbang possesses complete legal documents, including a visa issued by the Iraqi ambassador. Visiting a country that has officially established diplomatic relations with Huaxia is perfectly normal.
So, at this moment, Nie Zhenbang is completely unafraid. Moreover, he has realized that these people are clearly targeting him. Despite Nie Zhenbang avoiding trouble, that doesn’t imply he’s afraid of any. Having experienced pain in his past life, Nie Zhenbang isn’t willing to go through it again. This time, whoever stands in his way will be swiftly dealt with.
As Nie Zhenbang’s words fell, the police officer about to attack leaped up, his face revealing a ferocious frightening expression. He roared, “Wipe out my whole family? I’ll wipe you off first. Let’s see how you are going to annihilate my family.”
The officer was already rushing towards Nie Zhenbang. They knew very well that Nie Zhenbang is skilled in martial arts, hence why they had handcuffed him to the interrogation chair, immobilizing his arms. But, he had forgotten that Nie Zhenbang’s legs were still free. As the officer approached the door intending to strike Nie Zhenbang’s chest, Nie Zhenbang’s leg had already kicked him. Two solid kicks struck the man, propelling him back several meters onto the floor.
Nie Zhenbang’s leg strength isn’t something ordinary. His long-practiced martial arts, specifically Shape-Intent Fist, emphasizes explosive power. Those kicks left the man speechless for a long moment. Meanwhile, another man at the desk rose and ran to his co-worker, helping him regain his breath after some massaging.
Staggeringly standing up and seeing Nie Zhenbang still smiling, the officer was furious. He roared, “I will have you shot!” Then, he pulled out a Type 64 pistol from his holster and pointed it at Nie Zhenbang.
This action shocked the other officers. Immediately, one of them rushed over and grabbed his agitated colleague, “Old Chen, Old Chen, calm down. We can’t kill him, not yet. We should focus on the important things.”
Before he could finish, suddenly a loud clamor erupted outside, and a group of fully armed soldiers carrying submachine guns stormed in with an aggressive aura.
Upon entering the room, seeing the man with the weapon, at least five submachine guns were pointed at him. Then, an officer-looking man walked in. He glanced around, his gaze eventually landing on the man with the weapon. He casually said, “You dare to draw your gun? Handcuff him and take him away.”
Nie Zhenbang, whose handcuffs had already been removed by the soldiers who stormed in, stretched his hands which had been marked red by the cuffs and walked towards the two policemen.
With two crisp thuds, two men were knocked to the ground by a couple of slaps from Nie Zhenbang. The leading officer, clutching his face, stood up and looked at the group of soldiers around him, saying, “Who are you people, barging into the Public Security Department’s base like this? Are you staging a rebellion?”
Before Nie Zhenbang could answer, the leading officer stepped forward toward the police and said in a deep voice, “Rebellion? Where is your proof? I would like to ask you why you would secretly arrest active soldiers without notifying the military. Furthermore, you even pointed guns at us. Were you planning to shoot to kill? Who gave you such authority?”
As he said this, the officer took out two small green booklets from his pocket and tossed them onto the table. The bright red August 1st military emblem on the cover was strikingly conspicuous.
The officer then introduced himself, “Allow me to introduce myself, we are from the 29th Group Army of the Jingcheng City Military District, specifically the Wolf Team. I am Liu Weibing, the battalion commander of the Wolf Team. The Comrade Nie Zhenbang whom you arrested is our 29th Group Army staff officer. He was assigned by the army to visit Iraq and investigate the Iran-Iraq War situation in order to adapt our army to new forms of warfare. Do you understand now? If you don’t, feel free to report me to the Jingcheng City Military District. I am always at your disposal.”
Inside the Xuri Comrade’s office at the Red Wall compound, the instant Nie Zhenbang was taken away, Xuri’s secretary received a phone call.
After hanging up the call, the secretary stepped into Xuri Comrade’s office and respectfully said to Xuri who was reading some documents, “Leader, we have news. Nie Zhenbang was taken away by the military.”
Upon hearing this, Xuri Comrade sprung up from his seat, “What?”
The secretary repeated what he said, which darkened Xuri Comrade’s expression. After a pause, he said gravely, “Get the car ready. We’re going to the Head of State’s residence.’
With Nie Zhenbang’s removal, at this moment, the bigwigs gathered at Mei
Xiang Park could finally breathe a sigh of relief upon learning that Nie Zhenbang had safely left without leaving any written evidence or giving any testimony, including the Head of State himself.
At their side, Elder Yang even joked lightheartedly, “Elder Nie, Leader, this grandson of yours is really something! Elder Nie, Zhenbang’s got your swagger.”
The Head of State just furrowed his brow at this moment, looking at Elder Nie, he said: “Old friend, it looks like Comrade Xuri’s mindset has indeed changed. It appears that troublesome times are upon us again…”
Just then, the Head of State’s secretary knocked on the door and entered the room, looking at the group of bigwigs, and whispered, “Leader, Comrade Xuri has arrived.”
Upon hearing this, everyone’s faces changed slightly. The Head of State had also risen to his feet and told the secretary, “Arrange for the meeting in the West Hall.”
For nearly an hour, no one knew exactly what the Head of State and Comrade Xuri had discussed. Comrade Xuri left with a grim expression on his face.
At this moment, the Head of State returned to the study room and spoke to Elder Nie, who was still waiting there, “Old friend, judging from the current situation, I’m afraid we’ll have to inconvenience Zhenbang by having him stay in the military for a while..”
