The Strongest Master Venturing Urban-Chapter 378: Blind to Greatness

Chen Bin didn’t have Cheng Zhuang’s skills; once he was pinned down, he couldn’t break free at all.

The lead police officer cuffed him and shouted loudly at the crowd around them.

"If you people have any sense, leave immediately. If you continue blocking and disrupting the normal work of the County Committee and County Government, you’ll bear all the consequences!"

The locals were like this: when they were together, they feared nothing.

But seeing someone get arrested, their attitudes softened immediately.

When they saw Chen Bin actually being shoved into a police car, they scattered and left in twos and threes.

Seeing this, the lead officer yelled decisively, "Wrap it up!"

On the way to the interrogation room, Chen Bin encountered a young woman in uniform walking toward him.

At a glance, he recognized her—it was the same woman who had climbed into the wrong bed the night before last.

She obviously noticed him too and froze slightly before asking the lead officer directly.

"Captain Shao, what’s going on here?"

"This kid is bold beyond belief—he actually dared to impersonate a county leader. I caught him red-handed!"

The female cop snuck a glance at Chen Bin. Their eyes met, and her heart began racing.

She still couldn’t forget the thrilling events on the train.

Taking a deep breath, she looked at the lead cop again.

"Are you sure you didn’t mess up? He doesn’t look like the type to cause trouble."

"Don’t worry, I couldn’t possibly make a mistake!"

With that, he pressed Chen Bin onward.

Watching Chen Bin’s retreating figure, the female cop felt a tide of emotions.

She touched her face, finding it burning hot.

In the interrogation room, the lead officer began interrogating Chen Bin.

"What’s your name? Why did you try to break into the County Committee and County Government?"

Expressionless, Chen Bin stared at him coldly and replied.

"My name is Chen Bin. I went in because I wanted to show up for work. I have nothing else to say."

Smack!

The lead officer slammed the table in anger, barking at Chen Bin.

"Who the hell are you? You’d better come clean, or else you’re gonna regret it!"

Chen Bin turned his head to the side, clearly unwilling to respond.

"Damn it, you’re just asking for trouble!"

The lead officer was about to physically intimidate Chen Bin when the officer next to him, who was recording, hurriedly spoke up.

"Captain Shao, maybe we should verify his identity first. If he actually is a county leader, we’ll be in deep trouble."

Shao Jingsong, who hadn’t taken Chen Bin seriously at first, now hesitated, his confidence faltering.

Could this kid really be a government official?

Thinking it over, he left the interrogation room and dialed the County Political Consultative Conference office.

"This is Shao Jingsong. Quick question—did our county’s Political Consultative Conference Chairman change? What’s the new chairman’s name?"

After hanging up, Shao Jingsong’s face darkened.

While the chairman didn’t wield much power, he was still a leader.

Treating him like this? There was no way the guy would let it slide!

The more he thought about it, the more his head hurt. In the end, Shao Jingsong walked back into the interrogation room.

After sending the officer taking notes away, he immediately tried to appease Chen Bin.

"Chairman Chen, I deeply apologize. It’s my fault for failing to recognize your importance. Can you forgive me and not hold it against me?"

As he spoke, Shao Jingsong pulled out a key to unlock the handcuffs.

Chen Bin responded coldly, "Forgiving you isn’t impossible. Bring your director here first!"

"Please don’t—I truly know I was wrong. I beg you, let this go!"

Despite Shao Jingsong’s attempts to placate him, Chen Bin remained unmoved.

"I’ll say it one last time: Bring your director here!"

Seeing Chen Bin’s firm attitude, Shao Jingsong sighed and walked out of the room.

He soon bumped into the same female officer again.

"Captain Shao, did you just make a significant capture?"

"Capture my ass—that kid’s actually a county leader!"

With a dismissive reply, Shao Jingsong jogged to the director’s office.

After some hesitation, he finally pushed the door open and went in.

Beihuang County’s deputy county magistrate and police director, Meng Chaoshan, was working at his desk. When he saw Shao Jingsong barge in, his brow furrowed slightly.

Still, he asked, "What’s the matter? What’s so urgent that you forgot to knock?"

"Well... I accidentally arrested the new County Political Consultative Conference Chairman."

Upon hearing this, Meng Chaoshan’s brow furrowed even more deeply.

"What happened exactly?"

"There were a bunch of unruly people blocking the County Committee and County Government, demanding money. I led the team to maintain order and saw someone trying to break in, so I detained him."

"Did he reveal his identity right then?"

"He did, but I didn’t recognize him. I thought he was lying and... cuffed him anyway."

The more Meng Chaoshan listened, the angrier he became. He let out a cold snort.

"You caused this mess—you clean it up yourself! Ever since you arrived here, hasn’t every screw-up been your doing? This time, I’m not helping!"

"Director Meng, please scold me later. That guy insists on seeing you—please, you have to help!"

"Every time you mess up, you expect me to fix it. This time, I’m not going!"

Seeing that his pleas weren’t working, Shao Jingsong’s tone became colder.

"Fine—if you won’t help, I’ll go to my third uncle!"

Turning his head to glare at Shao, Meng Chaoshan snapped back.

"What, you want to use your third uncle to pressure me?" ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com

"No, absolutely not! I just think... if you won’t help me, I’ll have no choice but to ask him to convince you."

After hesitating for a moment, Meng Chaoshan sighed and got up, heading downstairs.

Once he entered the interrogation room, he extended his hand to Chen Bin with an apologetic smile.

"Chairman Chen, hello. I’m Meng Chaoshan, deputy county magistrate and police director of Beihuang County. It’s a pleasure to meet you—even if it’s under these circumstances. My sincerest apologies."

Chen Bin shook his cuffed hands slightly and responded coldly.

"I can’t exactly shake hands right now, can I?"

Seeing this, Meng Chaoshan immediately berated Shao Jingsong.

"You idiot—who told you to cuff Chairman Chen? Unlock them now!"

Just as Shao Jingsong pulled out the key and moved to unlock the cuffs, Chen Bin evaded him.

"You dragged me here without any explanation. Now you want to unlock the cuffs without explanation too—is that appropriate?"

At a loss for words, Shao Jingsong looked helplessly at Meng Chaoshan.

Giving him a stern glare, Meng Chaoshan turned back to Chen Bin with a smile and said.

"Chairman Chen, my subordinate detained you wrongly. It was my failure in enforcing discipline, and I’ve already given him a harsh reprimand. I will promptly convene a meeting with our team and implement stricter rules to ensure this doesn’t happen again!"

"Great—hold that meeting right now. I’ll sit in and observe."

"This..."

Meng Chaoshan hadn’t expected this new chairman to be so uncompromising.

But on reflection, it wasn’t entirely unreasonable.

If it had been him, getting arrested on his first day in office would’ve made him furious too.

Taking a deep breath, Meng Chaoshan turned to Shao Jingsong.

"Inform the office to call all committee members to a meeting. You’re joining, too!"

Nodding repeatedly, Shao Jingsong left quickly.

Forcing a smile, Meng Chaoshan gestured politely to Chen Bin.

"Chairman Chen, please follow me to the meeting room..."
