Ace of the Dragon Division

Chapter 379: The Unfortunate Duo

President Li and President Qiang were still squatting in the detention cell. Both of their clothes, phones, and wallets were temporarily taken away by the guards.

They grabbed onto the iron bars with both hands and looked at the phones on the table and said, “We want to make a call!”

The police officer, who was writing the report, casually asked, “What do you need the phone for?”

President Li: “I want to call my lawyer!”

Police Officer: “It’s useless to call, even if your lawyer comes, we will only have a stare down. Just the charges of you instigating thugs to fight is enough to keep you guys here for a while, and your lawyer won’t be able to do a thing. The evidence is conclusive. As for the other charges, we will be checking them slowly.”

President Qiang: “Give me my phone, I’m going to call my friend over. That must be okay, right?”

Police Officer: “Are either of your parents an official?”

President Qiang shook his head. “No.”

Officer: “Then there’s no need to call.”

President Li: “I’m a first-generation rich!”
Officer: “Not useful.”

President Qiang: “I’m a second-generation rich, my dad has a lot of money. Bro, let us go, and in the future we will treat you to anything you like.”

The officer shook his head. “Not useful.

President Li was furious. “What do you mean? Are you purposely making it difficult for us? You really think I don’t have any connections? Let me tell you, when I get out, the first one I will take care of is you, do you believe it or not? If you have what it takes, just don’t give me my phone, and don’t let me go out. Otherwise, I will definitely make you suffer!”

The officer looked at him. “Even if you do that, I still can’t let you out. I want to sincerely ask you two, how did you manage to survive until today?”

President Li and President Qiang were confused. “What do you mean?”

Officer: “Earth is a very dangerous place, and Huaxia’s no exception, especially Yanjing. It’s so dangerous that no mercenaries in the world would dare to set foot in this city. There are all kinds of monster-like existences here. You might be powerful, but there will always be someone more powerful. Since you guys aren’t the sons of officials, I’m surprised that you would dare act all high and mighty in Yanjing, the capital of Huaxia. If there’s no one who dares to punish you two, then this place wouldn’t be Yanjing, got it?”
President Qiang shouted angrily, “You think we haven’t seen much? What kind of officials and powerful characters haven’t we seen before? Even if they don’t know us, we know them, and we also know the princelings that we cannot offend. We indeed don’t know who those guys we saw today are, but we are sure that those people aren’t as capable as us. Give me my phone, I will prove it to you right now.”

The officer gave them back a phone, with the intention of seeing a good show unfold.

President Qiang directly dialed one of his friends.

“Hello? Qiang? I just heard that you guys got beat up, what happened?! You weren’t even picking up your calls too, what do you need right now? Just give me your word, and I will definitely help out wherever I can!” One of his bros on the other line probably drank a bit so he sounded like a hero ready to fight the injustice for his brother-in-arms.

“I’m at the police station!” President Qiang was very touched hearing this and he said.

“What? Which one? Actually, just give the phone to the guard, I will talk to him!”

President Qiang looked at the guard and said arrogantly, “He wants to talk to you!”

The guard took over the phone and impatiently answered, “Hello?”

“Which station are you at?”

“How about this, just do me a favor and let my friend go, and I won’t give a call to your superior. If your superior asks about it in the future, just tell him the son of Director Wang of the municipal bureau invites him to have some tea together some day.”

Officer: “My higher-ups aren’t working tonight, they don’t know about this.”

“Hey, can you not understand my language?” The other end sounded pretty pissed. “Do you really want me to give them a call?”

Officer: “I don’t know who you are, nor do I know what background you have, but I know what your friends are here for.”

“I don’t care what they are here for, just give me your word, are you letting them go or not? If you don’t let them go, I will call your higher-ups right now and teach you how to survive in this city!”

Officer: “Sure, you gods can fight. Mortals like me won’t get involved. Let me just tell you this, the person your two friends offended is the grandson of the old commander! One of the few that can be referred to as “Young Master” in Yanjing!”

“Wh-what did you say?” the other end of the call sounded like he was frightened. He swallowed his spittle and said, “The old commander’s family?”

Those that were referred to as “old commanders” were all fearless generals of the old days when the world was at war! In Yanjing, a place crowded with the second-generation of officials and wealthy families, not just anyone could be referred to as a “young master”!

“What’s his last name?” He was still feeling that the guard might just be bluffing.

Officer: “Ye! Our captain calls him Young Master Ye, and those two friends of yours were indeed beaten up like pigs by him.”
The grandson of the Old Commander Ye indeed could fight!

On the other end of the call, the guy swallowed his spittle and slowly said, with his tone taking a complete 180-degree turn. “Brother, sorry, I’m a little drunk and I almost didn’t brake in time. I will treat you to a massage with a happy ending when you are free, just forget whatever I said!”

The police officer faintly smiled. “You are not going to give us more trouble?’

“No more.”

Officer: “What about those two friends of yours?”

“Just let them follow the protocol and stay for a few days, it will be a good and novel experience for them. But if you could do me a small favor, maybe add another soup or dish to their meals, and I will be really grateful!”

Officer: “That can be arranged.”
“Then I will hang up, I will stop bothering you. If this Young Master Ye asks, just pretend we didn’t have this call, and I will be really grateful!”

Then, he hung up, and the guard put the phone on the table and continued writing his report. Inside the cell, President Li and President Qiang looked at each other, and then they shouted at the guard, “You heard the call too, when are you letting us go?”

The guard faintly said, “This will be a novel experience for you to have in life. Just stay for a month, and your friend said he will for sure come and pick you two up when your time is up.”

President Li looked over at President Qiang. “That friend of yours isn’t capable, man…”

President Qiang really wanted to save face so he shouted at the guard, “Were you deaf? My friend told you to let us go, didn’t he? Then hurry up and let us go!”

The guard directly tossed his phone over to him. “You can call him again and ask.”

President Qiang immediately called again, and the call was picked up. “Hello?”

President Qiang: “This brat is still not letting us go, hurry and come over to pick us up! My friend, President Li, definitely has to go to the hospital, he can’t be bandaged improperly like this! We got humiliated so hard today that we can’t wait until sunrise anymore! We have to get out right now and go and find those brats!”

However, a different voice sounded from the other end of the phone. “Hello? What did you say? Who are you looking for? The owner of this phone is already drunk and fell asleep, can you come over and pick him up? Hello? Can you hear me? Come over and pay his bills for him, hurry.”

President Qiang was dumbfounded as he hung up the call.

President Li looked at him and hesitantly asked, “What happened? Is he coming?”

President Qiang wanted to say something, but stopped. Then, he looked awkwardly at the guard and asked, “How long do we have to stay in here for?”

The guard replied, not even moving his eyes away from the report he was writing, “2 months.”

President Qiang: “But I facking heard you say just one month in the call, why is it two months now?”

The guard glanced at those two. “You tried to bribe the police, that’s another crime!”

President Qiang: “Fack!”
