Chapter 572 - 585 Personally Handling It
"Young Master Mu, I am Li Zhenxing, the director of the East City District Police Station."As he spoke, Li Zhenxing extended his right hand.
Last night at midnight, he received a call from Director Zhou, informing him that someone was causing trouble in his jurisdiction and clearly telling him that those people had messed with Young Master Mu’s people, and it must be dealt with seriously.
In their small circle of superintendents, not many knew Young Master Mu, but he happened to be one of them.
Six months ago, Pan An, the deputy director of the East City Division, was dismissed from his position due to a personal issue that arose after his cousin and his cousin-in-law caused trouble in a café.
This incident was very clear to him; he heard that Pan An’s cousin-in-law had offended Young Master Mu’s people, and Pan An sided with his cousin-in-law, which led to major trouble.
Since then, Li Zhenxing had always remembered that in his East City District, there were people whom Young Master Mu cared deeply about, and no matter who else he offended, he could not afford to offend Young Master Mu. Moreover, Young Master Mu was known to be extremely protective of his people.
So, when he heard from Director Zhou that someone had messed with Young Master Mu’s people, he personally led the team and brought those three individuals back to the station.
Even though all three had sustained varying degrees of injuries, he did not allow them to meet their family members or receive medical attention. Instead, he had assigned someone with some knowledge of treating external injuries to give them basic first aid.
He had been personally overseeing the matter all along, fearing that any mishap might incur Young Master Mu’s displeasure.
Mu Xingfeng extended his hand and shook hands with Li Zhenxing.
In the next three years, An Ran would still be studying and living in this area. It would be best to have the director of the East City District Police Station on his side. There’s a saying: even a strong dragon cannot crush a local snake. In the past, he never had to bother with such people, as others would come to flatter him. But now, for An Ran, he only wanted her path to be smoother and safer.
"Where are the three from last night being held?"
Li Zhenxing was still looking at the hand he had just extended. The Five Young Masters of the Imperial City, they were figures to be revered, and he never expected Young Master Mu to be so approachable, even shaking hands with him.
To put it bluntly, if something happened to Young Master Mu’s people in his jurisdiction, it was his responsibility. Even if Young Master Mu came to hold him accountable and beat him up, he would have to endure it.
Upon hearing Mu Xingfeng’s question, Li Zhenxing quickly led the way, "Young Master Mu, follow me. Since last night, we haven’t given those three anything to eat or drink, nor allowed them to see anyone. We were just waiting for you to personally handle things."

Mu Xingfeng responded with a grunt and followed Li Zhenxing further inside.
As they turned a corner, they heard shouting and cursing from one of the holding cells.
"Let us out! Why are you keeping us locked up without giving us water? We want food, we want water, we want to see our family. This is a human rights violation."
"Yes, we want food, we want water, we want to see our family. I want to sue you, this is a human rights violation, I want to see a lawyer."
"Do you know who I am? I am from the Xu Family. The Xu Family is connected to the Guo Family. How dare you offend the Xu Family and the Guo Family. Watch out, or you’ll be in big trouble."
...
Hearing the noise inside, Mu Xingfeng glanced at Lin Junyang behind him.
"The Guo Family is Wenshan Group’s Guo Family. Xu Changqing’s aunt is Guo Wenshan’s wife," Lin Junyang explained.
Mu Xingfeng nodded. They had already reached the door of the holding cell, and a police officer, showing great insight, helped open the door.
Upon hearing the door open, the people inside all scrambled up and rushed towards the door...
