Chapter 504: Chapter 463: The Honest Traffic Policeman (Fourth Update of the Fifth Explosion, Seeking Monthly Tickets)_1

The fiery red Ferrari and the yellow Lamborghini, luxurious imported cars of Wanghai, opened Nie Zhenbang’s eyes wide. These cars had never officially been imported into Huaxia. Obviously, they were from the automobile business of the Eastern Sea Group.

The license plate on the Ferrari was flamboyantly SouthD-11111, on a black plate. In front of the number, there was a red Chinese character—’bound’.

Next to him, Nie Jiamin squinted and said, “It seems that this group of street racers has quite the background. Black plates with white characters surrounded by a white frame are only given to foreign institutions (including those from Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan), foreign and international organizations stationed in Huaxia, privately purchased vehicles driven by foreigners in Huaxia, inbound vehicles from Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan, foreign countries, and temporarily seized vehicles by customs or confidential agencies. The character ‘bound’ on the license plate means that the vehicle is allowed to go abroad directly.”

Above the black plate was a white one, with the characters ‘Highway-11111 race’ written in black. Similarly, the yellow Lamborghini had a normal blue civilian plate, with an equally impressive license number, SouthD-99999. Above the blue plate, there was also a white plate with black characters specifying “Highway-99999 race”.

The two cars braked sharply, one behind the other. The intense friction between the tires and the ground produced sharp squeals.

The two cars stopped about ten meters away from Glasses Trays, parked directly in the middle of the road, disregarding any traffic rules.

At this moment, a police motorbike with flashing lights parked nearby. The helmeted traffic police officer got off the bike and walked towards the two vehicles.

The scissor-doors of the Ferrari drew amazed gasps from the locals enjoying late-night meals at the food stalls; a scene straight out of television, they were not going to miss it.

From each car, a young man in his twenties got out. The man from the Ferrari had a tumultuously arrogant look in his eyes. He spat and grumbled rudely, “Goddamn, a good race ruined by this fucking traffic cop.”

The young man stepping out of the Lamborghini stood about 1.8 meters tall, which was rare in Minan.

His handsome appearance and impressive pedigree gave him pride. Both men’s skin was incredibly fair and their figure slim as a result of indulgence. This assumption was reinforced by the buxom beauties that wrapped their arms tightly around the men, their breasts rubbing against their arms. These were men who clearly revelled in nocturnal pleasures, with a new woman every day.

“Mr. Lin, it’s awfully unlucky to be caught by traffic police in Wanghai. But, I must say the cop’s motorbike skills are something. Those rotten Wuyang bikes of the traffic police squad, I’m familiar with them. The fact they managed to tail us, despite some shortcutting, is somewhat commendable.” The taller young man commented with commendation.

Neither of them seemed aware they’d been stopped by the traffic police, although that was to be expected in Wanghai City. Anyone who could afford to drive such cars would hardly be intimidated by a traffic officer.

“What a joke! He’s referred to as ‘Mr’?” Gao Wei murmured amidst the crowd.

His voice was so low that hardly anyone heard it, but Nie Zhenbang, with his sharp hearing, did. He glanced at his friend and chuckled, then turning to a middle-aged man among the spectators, he asked, “Brother, can you tell me who these men are? They don’t seem to fear the traffic police at all.”

The middle-aged man turned his attention to Nie Zhenbang. Nie came off as a person of stature, exuding an inherent quality that he hardly realized he even possessed.

He nodded and said, “You mean them? I’m not sure about the taller young man. The shorter one is Lin Jingrong, the nephew of Fei Xing of the Eastern Sea Group. He claims Hong Kong residency, though he hails from Donggang. If the tall guy hanging out with him, his family must also be influential.”

The Eastern Sea Group again. Nie Zhen hadn’t been in office for a day and had already run into Lin Zhengxing’s uncle and nephew and experienced the enormous connections and prestige of the Eastern Sea Group in Wanghai City.

“Gentlemen, please show your licenses and registration.” At this point, the traffic officer had removed his helmet. He was a young man of about twenty-three or twenty-four, clean-cut with short hair, sharp eyebrows, and starry eyes. He stood about 1.7 meters tall, and his uniform gave him a heroic air.

When questioned by the officer, the faces of Lin Jingrong and his companion soured. To be checked by a junior traffic officer in front of a crowd and some lovely ladies—how embarrassing would it be if word got out in Wanghai?

Lin Jingrong snapped, “What the fuck are you to check my documents? Let me tell you, no one in Wanghai has ever dared to check my papers. You followed us all the way from Minxi Road, you must be from the Fourth Traffic Police Squad. Tell your leader, Zheng Ddui, to come to the Eastern Sea Group’s finance office tomorrow to collect the fine. What’s a few bucks to me?”

The tall man sternly said, “If you’re checking IDs, it’s only fair that you show us yours. Otherwise, how can we be sure that you’re not just posing?”

He took the license from the young traffic officer, looked it over with interest, and laughed, “Zhao Haining? Huh, that’s a nice name. Turns out, we share a surname. I’ll let you off this time out of respect for this. Just graduated and started working, haven’t you? Let me tell you, there are many people in WangHai City you can’t afford to offend. Remember my name, it’s Zhao Jie. Go and ask your superior, Zheng Ddui about me tomorrow, you’ll understand everything.”

With that, Zhao Jie shook his head, turning to Lin Jingrong beside him. “I have no idea how Lu Zhifeng operates, assigning novices to conduct spot checks, isn’t he just looking for trouble?”

Lin Jingrong chuckled, “Zhao, you should take this up with Lu when we gather tomorrow. Just suggest that he better improves the training of his traffic police squad.”

Several well-informed people in the crowd began whispering, “Zhao Jie? Isn’t he the son of the Deputy Mayor in charge of political and legal affairs, Zhao Dingguang? He’s a big shot in WangHai City. The kid is lucky to share the same surname; looks like Zhao Jie is going to cut him some slack. Otherwise, he might be out of job.”

Zhao Jie? Son of Zhao Dingguang? Nie Zhenbang mused, finding things getting more interesting. He hadn’t expected to encounter such incidents while going out for a late-night snack.

Meanwhile, Nie Zhenbang found this young traffic officer intriguing. The nephew of Eastern Sea Group’s CEO and son of Deputy Mayor Zhao – under such dual pressure, the choices this young traffic officer would make got Nie Zhenbang intrigued.

Then, Zhao Haining’s eyebrows knitted together as he sternly said, “I don’t care who you are or what your background is. I can quit this job if I want. However, as long as I am in this position, I will fulfill my daily responsibilities. Both of you were caught street racing in the city, that’s endangering public traffic safety. According to the rules and regulations of road traffic safety, I am to temporarily confiscate your driver’s license and detain you for fifteen days. Please present your driver’s licenses and vehicle registration.”

These words severely enraged Lin Jingrong. The deputy head of Eastern Sea Group was a high-profile figure in WangHai City. When had he ever been provoked in such a way?

Observing Zhao Haining, Lin Jingrong scoffed in anger, his face flushing deep red, he said, “Kid, it seems like you don’t know how to take a hint. Are you determined to lose your livelihood? What if I refuse to show you?” fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm

Unexpectedly, Zhao Haining stubbornly replied, “Then I’ll detain you. If you break the law, it’s my duty to enforce it. That’s the sacred right granted to me by the state. I don’t believe Eastern Sea Group is above the law.”

Nie Zhenbang nodded his approval. This Zhao Haining had an upright character. Impressively, he was also clever enough to generate public pressure at this time, exerting an influence over these two lawless men.

However, if Zhao Haining did not have a strong supporter, it would be akin to trying to crack a hard nut with a rotten tooth. It would be meaningless and would only lead to him losing his job. Thinking about it, Nie Zhenbang also laughed. Wasn’t he just like Zhao Haining, choosing jade shatter over tile preservation? If he hadn’t had deep roots, he would have probably already lost his job and prospects.

Now, the onlookers started to jeer. Even though most people in this era rarely harbored hatred towards the rich and most civilians were dreaming about getting rich, that was relative. Unruly dandies like Lin Jingrong were universally despised in any era.

“Good! People like him should be thrown in jail.”

“Well said, Officer Zhao, this is still the Communist Party’s domain! No one should be above the law.”

The ones who spoke were hidden in the crowd. After speaking, they immediately moved, making it impossible for Lin Jingrong and Zhao Jie to find them.

Zhao Jie’s brows knitted. Had this incident incited public outrage? If this escalated, it wouldn’t be good for either him or Lin Jingrong. Even worse, his father might come under public pressure.

Considering this, Zhao Jie nodded at Lin Jingrong and handed over his vehicle registration and driver’s license. He only said solemnly, “Officer Zhao! Remember to keep a path open when dealing with people; one day we may cross paths again. Don’t go overboard. We’ll leave the car here and report to the traffic police station.”

Watching the two departed, the crowd disbanded and resumed their own affairs. Nie Zhenbang walked up with a smile.
