Supremely Talented Tyrant-Chapter 578 Law and Authority

"You've offended Mr. Hao Jian and still dream of walking out of prison alive?" Lin Nantian began to sneer.

"Whether you can even walk into prison alive is still a question, and here you are dreaming of walking out. You must have a really nice dream, thinking you can just squat for a few years and then leave. I'm afraid you'll have money but no life to spend it!" Another officer sneered along.

"You really must be stupid to cause trouble for Mr. Hao Jian."

Upon hearing this, Zuo Xinglong was instantly stunned, staring at Hao Jian with a wooden look. Was Hao Jian really that terrifying?

Su Xinya and Sister Qin were also lost in shock.

"Are you sure you'll still have a life to walk in and then out again?" At this point, Hao Jian gazed at Zuo Xinglong and said this very seriously.

"Are you threatening me? If you dare do anything to me, I'll have my lawyer sue you!" Zuo Xinglong roared, his heart trembling with fear, but he did not want to yield just like that because if he did, he would lose everything.

"Then let your lawyer sue me!" Hearing this, Hao Jian instantly laughed and then turned to address Lin Nantian.

Lin Nantian, being extremely clever, instantly understood what Hao Jian wanted to do and told his subordinates, "Turn off the camera!"

Instantly, an officer took out a toolbox and said to Hao Jian, "Mr. Hao Jian, all the tools are prepared for you."

Hao Jian rummaged through the toolbox, finding a wrench, a hammer, and other items. Seeing this, Zuo Xinglong and Su Xinya were scared witless; they finally realized what Hao Jian intended to do.

At that moment, Hao Jian had selected a hammer, weighed it in his hand, and then walked towards Zuo Xinglong with a laugh.

"What are you doing? You want to torture me? I'll sue you, this is illegal! Police, stop him!" Zuo Xinglong screamed in terror; Huffman was actually going to use torture on him?

"I can't see anything!" Lin Nantian simply turned away.

"We can't see anything either!" All the officers turned their backs.

Su Xinya and Sister Qin were dumfounded. Although they both knew Hao Jian had tremendous influence, they had not expected it to be this vast.

Now, it had almost reached the point of doing whatever he pleased.

And Zuo Xinglong's face turned ashen in an instant; he could clearly see these guys were not going to help him.

Holding the hammer in his hand, Hao Jian walked up to Zuo Xinglong and chuckled before asking, "Are you sure you won't speak?"

"Don't think I'll be scared just like that. I'm telling you, I, Zuo Xinglong, am not a pushover!" Zuo Xinglong stubbornly said. For the sake of money, he had to gamble—even being beaten meant nothing.

"You're only this tough because you think I just want to beat you up," Hao Jian scoffed.

Zuo Xinglong's expression froze. Wasn't that the case?

"If that's what you think, then you're gravely mistaken. I'm going to kill you!" Hao Jian said with a menacing glare at Zuo Xinglong.

Zuo Xinglong was suddenly terrified, anxiously saying, "You can't do this; this is a police station. You should go through the proper judicial process, not violent law enforcement!"

"For scum like you, there's no need for so-called judicial process!" Hao Jian said indifferently before the hammer came crashing down.

"Bang!"

"Ah!"

The sound of the impact and Zuo Xinglong's screams came almost at the same time. Su Xinya and Sister Qin were startled by the ferocity of Hao Jian and quickly turned their heads away, daring not to look again.

Upon looking down, Zuo Xinglong let out an even more piercing scream, this time not from pain, but from fright. He could see that one of his hands had become completely pulverized, utterly deflated and severely deformed.

"One hand is wasted, next comes the second, followed by your two legs, and finally here!" Hao Jian pointed with the hammer at Zuo Xinglong's hands and feet, finally resting it on the spot above Zuo Xinglong's head.

He was telling Zuo Xinglong that he was going to torture him first and then kill him.

"You can't do this, this is murder, you're breaking the law! The law will punish you!" Zuo Xinglong cried out loud. He was truly scared now; this man was terrifying.

But Hao Jian ignored him and continued to walk over, asking, "Do you know the difference between law and power?"

Zuo Xinglong stared blankly, confused as he looked at Hao Jian, not understanding what he meant.

"Let me give you an example. A criminal is sentenced to death by the judge, that's the law; but a criminal is pardoned by the king and declared innocent, that... is power!" Hao Jian said with a smile that wasn't quite a smile. He stared at Zuo Xinglong, an ominous smile forming at the corner of his mouth.

And Zuo Xinglong was completely dumbstruck; although he was an uncultured brute, he could understand these simple words.

Hao Jian's words not only shocked Zuo Xinglong but also stunned Su Xinya and the others. Hao Jian's words were extremely arrogant, yet they conveyed an unquestionable sense of authority, exuding an oppressive dominance.

Was Hao Jian implying that he was that king, because with power, he could rule over life and death?

And seeing the puzzlement in Zuo Xinglong's eyes, Hao Jian also sneered, "You guessed right, I am the King! Now, as far as I'm concerned, if I want you to live, you must live, and if I want you to die, you must die!"

"If you kill me, you'll never know who sent me!" Zuo Xinglong said, trembling, reminding Hao Jian not to act impulsively.

"Who says? Finding that person is just a matter of time. Who says I absolutely need your help?" But Hao Jian scoffed and raised the hammer to strike again.

"Stop! I'll talk! I'll tell you everything!" Zuo Xinglong was utterly frightened and nodded quickly.

"Speak!" Hao Jian commanded coldly.

"I don't know who he is, he didn't tell me his name. He's a fatty. He found me in an alley and then gave me this task, telling me to do this," Zuo Xinglong confessed truthfully.

"Then you are of no use to me!" Hao Jian sneered and then brought down the hammer directly.

"No, no, no, I remember his license plate number! His license plate number is..." Zuo Xinglong hurriedly said.

Without waiting for Hao Jian to speak, Lin Nantian quickly stepped out and then had someone investigate the owner of the license plate number.

Before long, Lin Nantian returned and came to Hao Jian's side, "Mr. Hao Jian, this license plate number belongs to a man called Xu Rongde."

"Xu Rongde?" Su Xinya was startled, exclaiming involuntarily.

"You know this Xu Rongde?" Hao Jian was surprised by Su Xinya's reaction which clearly indicated she knew Xu Rongde.

"He is the chairman of HK Entertainment Company, our company's archenemy!" Sister Qin said with a ghastly expression.

Hao Jian showed a look of understanding; everything then made sense. It was Su Xinya's rival company wanting to target them, stirring up all these troubles.

"I've told you all I know, can you let me go now?" Zuo Xinglong pleaded.

"Let you go? You wish. I would be letting you off too easy if I don't kill you!" Hao Jian snorted coldly.

Following that, Zuo Xinglong didn't dare make a sound, now feeling an instinctive fear towards Hao Jian.

He knew his confession had only just saved his life by a hair's breadth, wishing for a reward was out of the question.

"I will definitely tell the boss about this affair!" Sister Qin said fiercely; they couldn't let Xu Rongde get away with targeting them like this.

"No need, I will handle this matter," Hao Jian declared.

"Alright, alright, we'll leave it in your hands then!" Sister Qin quickly agreed, overjoyed to see someone with more influence than their boss take charge; if Hao Jian was willing to lend a hand, he could deal with Xu Rongde in minutes.

"Sister Qin!" Su Xinya pushed Sister Qin angrily. What was she saying? Why should they let Hao Jian deal with this?

Sister Qin didn't dare to speak again.

Ignoring whether Su Xinya agreed or not, Hao Jian then turned to Zuo Xinglong, "How much money did Xu Rongde give you to do this job?"

"Three million," Zuo Xinglong replied, not daring to hide anything.

"I'll also give you three million. Betray him and act as a tainted witness, how about that?" Hao Jian offered.

"Yes, yes, yes." Zuo Xinglong nodded eagerly. He had thought he was heading straight for prison but now saw a chance to earn money; it was too good to be true, almost like a dream.

"Hao Jian, we can handle this ourselves," Su Xinya spoke up.

But Hao Jian waved his hand dismissively, "No more words; I will take care of this. Our group is on the eve of releasing a new product, and I won't allow any mishaps. With your boss's resources, even if you could resolve it, it would take forever, and I don't want to waste time."

Then, Hao Jian turned to Lin Nantian, "Keep a close eye on this guy, and have him testify in court later."

"Understood!" Lin Nantian immediately nodded.

"I'll take you home," Hao Jian said to Su Xinya just then.

"Okay!" Su Xinya had no choice but to accept.

Hao Jian then drove Su Xinya and Sister Qin back to their place. But as soon as they got out of the car, a man approached them.

The man was dressed in a suit and looked neat and concerned as he approached Su Xinya, "Xinya, are you alright?"

"Sun Yibo? What are you doing here?" Su Xinya was clearly surprised by the unexpected visit and felt merely surprised, not particularly pleased.

Behind Su Xinya, Hao Jian was also taken aback; he had been contemplating when to meet Sun Yibo, not expecting to run into him so soon.

Because Sun Yibo had previously taken Che Xiaoxiao and Zhao Yating fishing, which resulted in them being attacked by a monster, nearly leading to their deaths, Hao Jian had always held a grudge against this man.
