Even though she could not figure out Tang Wulins exact cultivation base, she knew he was capable of defeating four mechas just by relying on his physical strength. Regardless of his martial soul, he should not be looked down upon.

Mo Lan was well aware of the delicate situation with Tang Wulins identity now, so she did not mention to anyone that he was a student of Shrek Academy. Thus, Xiao Bai was oblivious to this, but she knew that the man before her was very powerful. He was more formidable than she had imagined and was a rather impressive opponent.

Tang Wulin returned to Mo Lans side smoothly and smiled at her. He stood quietly behind her and acted as if everything that had happened earlier was not his own doing at all.

The police arrived like a swarm of bees. Their equipment was simpler and less sophisticated than that of the soldiers. Nevertheless, they were still representatives of the public security force of the entire Mingdu City regardless.

The first group of police officers was taken aback upon seeing the four mechas lying on the ground. The leading police sergeant with a high rank set his eyes on Mo Lan as he ran over quickly.

MP Madam Mo Lan are you alright? What happened here?

Mo Lan glared at him coldly as she spoke with a look of fury, The military was arresting people in the cafe in broad daylight, despite having no warrant. Not only that, but they were also carrying standard military-grade weapons to threaten the public. In the end, they did not even spare their mechas. I wish to inquire, who is it that authorized this? Could it be that taxpayer money armed them just so they could turn their muzzles back at us? The militarys abusive behavior has already threatened the entire Federations stability and unity. I would like to ask all of you to investigate this!

Sweat immediately broke out on the high-ranking police sergeants forehead. He could tell at first glance that the situation before his eyes was not a small issue. He felt even more troubled upon listening to Mo Lans words.

Of course, he was aware that MP Mo Lan was a representative from the Dove Faction. Though she was young, she was a very strong candidate within the faction. It was especially obvious after the shifts in the new term that she was just and incorruptible in addition to her family being victims of Holy Spirit Cults cruelty. As a result, she was left all alone in this world without the slightest fear of unseen threats. She stood at the forefront during a few confrontations with the Hawk Fashion and received the full support from the old and new members of the Dove Faction.

Even so, the police sergeant could not afford to offend the other side either, given that it was the military! Were they allowed to confront the military forces as mere police officers? If they were not careful, they would end up in deep trouble.

Instantly, he had an idea and he swiftly replied, MP Madam Mo Lan, we will certainly handle this incident fairly. We will first take these soldiers back to the police station on the double.

Mo Lan nodded. Ill continue to follow up on this matter. Please report to me at any time.

Yes! The high-ranking police sergeant saluted her before he immediately led the police officers to handle the soldiers. At the same time, they began to take down statements from the people who had been inside the cafe to verify the specific sequence of events that took place.

The soldiers that were captured remained in a state of silence. However, the police still managed to clarify the situation soon through the words of the bystanders. There was no doubt that the military was absolutely in the wrong. They were arresting people without permission. Moreover, it was done without an arrest warrant.

These soldiers and mechas had all belonged to the Mingdu Garrison Command. The garrison command was in charge of matters pertaining to the defense of Mingdu, but the act of utilizing the army to arrest people without permission was not a small issue anymore. It would be very easy to find out the jurisdiction of these soldiers just by tracking the designation of their military unit. The soldiers refusal to speak was showing that they were waiting for their superior to manage this incident. At the moment, they would never consent to speak no matter what.

At Mo Lans side, Tang Wulin was watching the situation unfold with a cold gaze. He considered the polices way of handling the situation rather appropriate. Four mecha masters in the mechas were invited to come out. They were guarded temporarily and the same was done to the soldiers inside the cafe. They would be interrogated separately later.

Just as the police were about to transport these soldiers back to the police station, all of a sudden, a military vehicle drove over at full speed.

It was apparent that Tang Zihao was relieved upon seeing the car. The superior officers were here, so the incident would not be pinned on them anymore. In reality, what they had done on this day would result in a court-martial if someone were to pursue the matter seriously!

The military vehicle abruptly stopped. An officer with a lieutenant colonel military rank pinned to his shoulders came out from the car escorted by two majors by his side.

Hold on. The lieutenant colonel walked in great strides and arrived before the high-ranking police sergeant. He raised his hand in an attempt to stop the police from continuing to take the soldiers into the police wagons.

We are from the inspection control unit of the garrison command. What happened here? I heard that our soldiers are reporting that there was a misunderstanding with your police unit?

The police sergeants rank was equal to this military officers. He replied with a deep voice, There was a conflict that took place earlier. These garrison commands soldiers received some unknown authoritys order to use their standard military weapons to threaten the public and they couldnt produce any arrest warrant. They had even used their mechas to attack these citizens. Were going to investigate this case properly so that we can provide a proper explanation to the people. Thus, Im going to take these soldiers back to our department so that they can continue to cooperate with our investigations.

No! Personnel from the military should be handled by our military. This is unrelated to you. Please hand over this case to us. Well notify you when there are any new developments. As he was speaking, the lieutenant colonel waved his hand to signal for the over a dozen soldiers, armed with loaded weapons, to come down from the vehicle and block the path of the police.

There was no doubt that the police came in greater numbers, but they were much weaker when compared to these actual soldiers judging by their equipment and fighting capacity.

Very well! Mo Lan spoke coldly, Ive finally had a firsthand glimpse of the militarys strength.

Who are you? asked the lieutenant colonel as he darted his eyes at her.

Mo Lan answered calmly, Im no one but an ordinary citizen. Why? Could it be that Im not allowed to speak the truth?

The lieutenant colonel coldly replied, This is the official business of the military. Those without authorization are to leave immediately. Otherwise, its a crime for instigating the militarys political situation.

Mo Lan laughed for this was truly a convenient case of someone sending over a pillow when one was drowsy. She was just concerned about her lack of knowledge of the militarys involvement, which could keep the Hawk Factions people in check.

Xiao Bai raised her arm and used her soul communicator to record the scene that was taking place before her eyes.

What are you doing? Youre not allowed to record this! The lieutenant colonel had a swift reaction when he noticed what Xiao Bai was doing.

Dashing over, a major arrived before Xiao Bai. He raised her hand as he grabbed her arm.

Xiao Bai gave out an indignant grunt. She swung her left hand forward at lightning speed causing the major to let out a muffled groan. He fell back a few steps before he lowered his head and stared at his hand. He saw something had been branded onto his palm.

Upon closer inspection, one would discover that it was tiny wording saying Federal Bureau of Central Guards.

The major had a drastic change of expression upon reading these words.

He was well aware of the Federal Bureau of Central Guards. This person was an elite powerhouse in charge of the security of the federal governments top officers. One would need to have at least a five-ringed Soul King cultivation base and also be a mecha master of at least purple-rank to be enlisted into the Federal Bureau of Central Guards, so she must be a mecha master as well.

The appearance of an officer from the Federal Bureau of Central Guards revealed the identity of the middle-aged woman who spoke earlier.

Very well. All of you dare to attack the military. The lieutenant colonel had only seen that his comrade was struck back by Xiao Bai, so he did not know the specifics of the situation and was about to lose his temper. On the other hand, the major was no fool. He returned to the lieutenant colonels side rapidly and raised his palm for his superior to see.

The lieutenant colonels expression changed as well upon reading the words on the majors palm for he knew that he was in deep trouble.

The most important mission for the Federal Bureau of Central Guards was to protect the members of parliament. Only the members of parliament were qualified to be protected by them and, in fact, not every member qualified.

There was no doubt that the middle-aged woman before him was a member of parliament. Moreover, he could tell that this was a member of parliament who did not have a good relationship with the military judging from her attitude. Even though the Hawk Faction occupied the dominant position right now, in reality, they would still need the peoples backing in the grand election and during the decision-making process of great importance. He was afraid that the militarys image would be badly tarnished if this matter today was not handled properly.

They had not intended for this small matter to cause a scene, but he did not expect that it would go this far. He could not keep from looking dour.

Mo Lan spoke calmly, Why? Do you wish to take me along as well? Id like to see who dares to prevent the polices official business.

Many different feelings rippled across the lieutenant colonels face. He knew that this would be very difficult if he were to allow the police to take away his people. Even a high-ranking officer from the military dared not act rashly in such a situation. After all, the Douluo Federation was still a democratic continent.

Well discuss more after we take our men. The lieutenant colonel made a prompt decision. As he waved his hand and gave the order, he walked to the front of Xiao Bai in great strides and used his body to block her shot.

He did not even take a glance at Mo Lan as he pretended not to recognize her identity. He looked at Xiao Bai calmly. Miss, please do not continue to record anymore. Please be concerned for the sake of our reputation. We shall repay your kindness in the future.
