Chapter 32: Turning Black and White Upside Down

  Three less, this is the self-appellation inside the capital. Outsiders absolutely wouldn't know. As soon as he heard this appellation, Nie Zhenbang immediately turned his head around. Could it be that people from the capital circle also came to Nanhai? He glanced sideways and saw a man about 18 years old waving at him with a smile on his face walking over.

  Nie Zhenbang was also somewhat puzzled. He didn't know this person, so how could he possibly know his nickname in the Beijing circle?

  At this time, the young man had already walked up, with a height of about 1.75 meters. Southerners are generally thinner and smaller in stature. The man also has some characteristics unique to southerners. Seeing Nie Zhenbang's puzzled expression, he smiled and said: "Third Master, do you still remember me? Guo Ming. Outside the gate of Yu Ying School. At that time, I was with my second brother."

  Upon hearing this, Nie Zhenbang seemed to recall that when he first went to Yu Ying School, there was indeed such a person behind Nie Jiamin. However, at the time, Nie Jiamin did not introduce him. It seems that this person is not valued by Nie Jiamin.

  At this moment, Nie Zhenbang naturally wouldn't be impolite either. Nie Zhenbang's principle in dealing with people is: you respect me one foot, I'll respect you ten feet. If others don't offend me, I won't offend them. But if they do offend me, I will definitely trample on them. Neither arrogant nor showy, but also, no one should think of coming to trample on me.

  "Ah, I remember. Mingzi, how did you end up in Guangdong?" Nie Zhenbang said, although he didn't actually recall. But on the surface, he pretended to have remembered.

  Others rushed over with eager eyes, but you said you didn't remember. Isn't this a public slap in the face? Moreover, there were several young men and women following behind Guo Ming, who looked like they came from good families just like Guo Ming.

  As expected, upon hearing Nie Zhenbang's words, Guo Ming's smile grew even thicker. He immediately laughed and said: "Third Master, my home is just here. My old man works in Guangdong East. It's almost New Year's, so he came back."

  In this era, it's like this. In the capital city, there are schools like Yu Ying School and Chaoyangmen School. These are the schools where the princes and princesses of the capital gather. There are also many students from outside the capital. Basically, they are all children of provincial-level leaders.

  Sometimes, relationships with children can also be a kind of connection. Who knows, at certain critical moments, this may be enough to give you an extra edge over others.

  Nie Zhenbang smiled and said, "Mingzi, why call me Third Young Master? You think highly of me, so just call me Third Brother. Today, I'm afraid I won't be able to accompany you. Later, there are still a few more clowns to deal with. You all sit aside for now. After Third Brother finishes his business, we'll talk again."

  Guo Ming also burst out laughing at this moment. Nie Zhenbang's identity was clear to him - he was a big shot in the third generation of the Nie family, someone that everyone in the Nie family had to obey. With the Nie family's power and influence, such trivial matters naturally didn't require anyone else's help. However, asking or not asking was another matter of attitude. By asking, it represented one's attitude.

  "Third Brother takes action, then there's no problem. These people aren't even worthy of Third Brother taking action, if Third Brother doesn't mind, I'll take care of the rest." Guo Ming further expressed his meaning.

  Nie Zhenbang shook his head slightly, ever since he had swept Zhou Chen's face in the capital. After fighting to the end, Zhou Chen went to Chuannan Province with a sullen expression, and Nie Zhenbang's reputation in the capital circle had also spread. The princes and princesses in the capital circle were not fools, they all understood one thing: although Nie Zhenbang did not get recognition from the Nie family on the surface, he must have gotten support from the Nie family in secret. Otherwise, a private son would never be so arrogant.

  At this time, if Nie Zhenbang retreated, that would not be Nie Zhenbang. Immediately, he smiled and said: "Mingzi, thank you for your kindness. This matter is better handled by myself. I'd like to see how powerful the cadres of this special zone are."

  Guo Ming smiled awkwardly after hearing Nie Zhenbang's words, and immediately retreated. Nearby, several young men and women also gathered around.

  "Hey, who's this? So arrogant? You're the son of the provincial governor. Do you need to be so polite?" one of the men said with a swagger.

  Guo Ming glanced at the man, this young guy was called Jiang Wei, his family's old head was a standing committee member of Nanhai Municipal Committee and secretary of the municipal political and legal committee. Usually, he was very close to Guo Ming's father. He could be considered as someone from the same faction as Guo Ming's father. If it were someone else asking, Guo Ming wouldn't have answered at all. But now, he replied calmly: "You're being polite. Haven't you heard a common saying? If you don't go to Beijing, you won't know how big an official is. Let alone my dad is just a locally-born deputy provincial-level cadre, even if it were Xiong Bangguo's son who went to Beijing, he would still have to lower his head when walking. In Beijing, the children of provincial and ministerial-level officials are nothing."

  As he spoke, Guo Ming walked towards the phone.

  At this moment, outside, a group of police officers had rushed in. Wei Wenhai followed behind, and at this moment, Wei Wenhai shook off his earlier dejection, puffed out his chest, and looked at Nie Zhenbang who was still there, his gaze sweeping past Luo Pingan's body. He burst into loud laughter: "Luo Pingan, you're really too bold! You didn't even run away. Fine, fine, since you're delivering yourselves to death, don't blame me for it. Captain Liu, this is the person who, without any reason, beat up several of my friends. This person is suspected of intentional assault. I suggest you immediately take into custody such a dangerous character and bring them to justice."

  Liu, the captain, is the head of the Public Security Bureau's security team in the port area. Who is Wei Wenhao? The super yamen of the port area. Others who are yamen are all sons of officials. But this kid is actually the younger brother of the secretary of the port area committee. As the youngest son in his family, Wei Wenhao dares to scold the mother of the secretary of the port area committee, Wei Wen'ge.

  Looking at the two people in front of him, Luo Ping'an and Captain Liu were familiar. But the person next to them, judging from their clothes and demeanor, didn't seem like anyone special either. Captain Liu sighed, this kid, why did he have to offend Wei Wenhai?

  Captain Liu walked up and showed his police badge to Nie Zhenbang, saying: "Young man, someone has reported that you are suspected of intentionally injuring others. Please come with us."

  Next to him, Wei Wenhai had already shouted: "Old Liu, what are you still hesitating about? Just take him away directly. During the severe crackdown period, isn't it supposed to be strict, severe and swift? These brothers of mine were all beaten up by this kid, with witnesses and evidence present, I reckon he wouldn't dare to quibble. What are you afraid of?"

  As Wei Wenhai's voice fell, several police officers had already walked up beside him. This scene made Nie Zhenbang frown. The local people were bold. Nie Zhenbang had also heard about it before. In the past, a young man from Beijing went to the northwest and was killed by the local officials. In the end, only one body was left. Later, although the official's family was dealt with, but the person was dead, nothing made sense anymore.

  "What's going on? Are you just going to take this person's word for it? This is ridiculous." Nie Zhenbang sneered, looking at these people calmly.

  At this moment, the boss of the revolving restaurant also came out. Luo Ping'an was a well-known figure in the Nanhai business circle. At this moment, he was so eager to keep this young man that the boss of the revolving restaurant had also come forward.

  "Ladies and gentlemen, I am the boss here. As for what happened earlier, although it was this young man who took action, these people are not entirely blameless either. I think you should all be more cautious."

  Luo Ping'an also stood up at this moment: "Wei Wenhai, you dare to arrest him. First step over my corpse. I don't believe it. You dare to kill me, I am a representative of the People's Congress of Nanhai."

  "Seize him, seize him! Old Liu, do you still want to be the captain after this incident? I'll take responsibility." Wei Wenhai saw Luo Pingan also jumping out and immediately bellowed.

  With Wei Wenhai's urging, Captain Liu finally made his move. Nie Zhenbang stepped forward again, letting out a cold snort: "Since you're not distinguishing between right and wrong, you're not good people either. Don't blame me for being impolite then."

  Nie Zhenbang had just taken action. At this moment, a rustling sound suddenly came from outside. Immediately afterwards, a group of fully armed soldiers rushed in from outside.

  The gaze swept through the crowd, and a military officer walked over, looking around and saying, "Who is Comrade Luo Ping'an?"
