Power and Wealth-Chapter 1616
Chapter 1616
Alley entrance.
One car...
Two cars...
Three cars...
As everyone stood there, dumbfounded and yet to react, Dong Xuebing had already kicked three cars. Each car bore a distinct footprint covered in dust. The alarms of the cars rang out one after another, incessantly beeping, while their taillights kept flashing. None of the old residents had expected Dong Xuebing to dare to kick the cars. After all, these were the vehicles of district leaders and government cars. So, everyone was a bit dumbfounded. But after coming back to their senses, they all felt exhilarated. Those kicks were well-deserved!
But while they enjoyed it, the police officers did not have it.
A young police officer glared at Dong Xuebing and said, "What are you doing?"
Dong Xuebing grinned, "Me? I'm helping you call the car owners!"
"You're deliberately damaging property!" The senior police officer was annoyed. "You'll be detained!"
Dong Xuebing shrugged and smiled. "Deliberately damaging property? Detention? I'm puzzled. These cars are parked illegally, causing congestion in the alley, wasting people's time, and indirectly generating noise pollution, endangering people's lives. What's more important than life? You guys didn't say anything about it, nor did you seem to intend to deal with it. I'm just trying to help you find the car owners. It's just leaving a few footprints that will be easily wiped off. And you're putting labels on me? Talking about damaging property? Detention? Oh, I felt scared. Why didn’t you say you would detain the car owners of these cars just now? Or even call for a tow truck? As soon as I made a move, you acted like you'd been stepped on a cat's tail. Ha, now I understand. So the law is made for us ordinary folks, huh? The law is just a tool for you to use or not use as you please!"
What a mouth he had!
Ordinary people couldn't match him!
Let alone these two police officers, it wouldn't make a difference if someone else came!
Dong Xuebing's words once again fueled the crowd's anger and shifted the blame onto the police officers, even putting pressure on them directly. It was ruthless!
The two police officers were shocked and angry.
This round of words directly put them in a tough spot!
At this moment, the Audi alarm suddenly stopped, followed by the alarms of the other two cars, all disconnected midway. It wasn't the cars stopping on their own. This meant that the car owners were aware of the situation and had turned off the alarms within the effective range and were nearby!
Dong Xuebing said casually, "See, isn't my method faster? No matter how many calls you make, it's less effective than my kick."
Several young men and women in the alley burst into laughter, but their laughter had a hint of mockery—mocking the police officers' inaction!
Sister Ci hurried over and pulled him aside. "Xiao Dong, calm down."
Auntie Zheng was also concerned and immediately reminded him, "This is the car of a district official."
"Auntie Zheng, Sister Ci, it's okay." Just as the police officers didn't care about ordinary folks, Dong Xuebing didn't take them seriously either. Let alone the car of a district official, even if it were the mayor's car, Dong Xuebing would have kicked it. An Audi? Back in Yantai County, he smashed a Mercedes-Benz. What's the big deal?
The atmosphere was starting to feel tense.
Dong Xuebing stepped forward, rallying the old residents with his momentum.
Finally, several men in their thirties and forties strode into the alley. However, they were not district officials but drivers judging by their attire.
"Oh, Old Wang!" The senior police officer recognized one of them.
The young police officer also nodded. "Brother Sun, Brother Wang."
They showed respect for their department officials' drivers—drivers, secretaries, and nannies were not measured by rank. Their underlying power and status were linked to the leaders they served, and most people wouldn't dare disrespect them.
Old Wang and Old Sun might not recognize the two police officers, merely giving them a nod before turning their attention to the leaders' cars. Upon inspection, all three drivers were fuming. Footprints adorned the doors, hoods, and bumpers of the cars!
Old Wang's voice turned cold. "Who did this?"
Dong Xuebing smiled. "I did."
Another driver snapped, "You're asking for trouble, right?"
Still smiling, Dong Xuebing replied, "Who said anything about 'trouble'? I'm looking for you three. You're quite hard to find."
Old Wang pointed at him. "Kid, you dare to vandalize the district government's car?"
Dong Xuebing chuckled. "Which eye of yours saw me vandalize a car? I just kicked it. But if you insist on labeling me as a vandal, I might as well oblige. Shall I give your cars a little smash? Since National Day just passed, let's wish for peace every year, shall we?" Others might think Dong Xuebing was joking, but those who knew him well would understand that he had done such things before. If they provoked him, Dong Xuebing wouldn't hesitate to smash even the police station!
What was he afraid of?
There was nothing this guy wouldn't dare to do!
The three drivers and the police officers were all infuriated by Dong Xuebing's words!
Upon hearing his words, it was clear that this guy was a troublemaker, exuding an air of someone who wasn't afraid to speak his mind! He was quite the rascal!
Sister Ci said, "You're the ones complaining first! What kind of people are you? Look at how you parked your cars! How many times has it been?"
An old man shook his cane vigorously. "You've gone too far!"
An old lady also pointed at them and shouted, "A bunch of brats! Kicking your cars is the least of it! It's been two hours! Where were you guys?"
A young man said, "They're having a meeting nearby! They must have heard the honking!"
Another girl added, "Exactly! They're deliberately not coming out! They want to wait until the car alarms go off before they show up!"
More people from the alley crowded around, and many residents from neighboring alleys joined. They had been disturbed by the noise for months and had a herd mentality. Seeing Dong Xuebing and the others gathering momentum, everyone joined in to condemn the drivers!
In the blink of an eye, there were hundreds of people!
Ordinary people usually didn't want to confront the authorities. Still, now everyone had surrounded the police and Audi vehicles with the drivers, clearly forced to the point where they had no choice but to vent their anger. Otherwise, no one would willingly seek trouble for themselves. They had been pushed too far!
The scene was filled with curses!
The drivers and the police officers were almost overwhelmed!
