Chapter 282 Forgery Of Military Rank, Felony
“Wait!”
Lu Yu had just reached the entrance when he heard an unfriendly yell.
He stopped and looked toward the source of the sound.
A man in a dark green uniform walked toward Lu Yu. From his appearance, he was a middle-aged man with a strong build and a stern expression, and he was not a civilian.
When he got closer, Lu Yu saw a staff sergeant’s epaulette on his shoulder!
This man was a staff sergeant in the military, and he was just a gatekeeper here.
It could be seen that many people indeed valued the safety of this place.
“What’s the matter that you stopped me?”
Lu Yu asked in confusion. He had passed by here many times, but he had never realized there was a place with a guard inside.
The military officer walked over and approached Lu Yu. He leaned forward and carefully looked at the badge on Lu Yu’s chest.
“How did you get this thing?”
Lu Yu lowered his head and looked at the badges on his chest. The person before him wasn’t looking at the other two badges, just the one that Wan Guliu had given him.
“Someone from the military gave it to me. Is there a problem?”
“Of course there’s a problem. You’re faking your military rank!”
“You brat, where did you get the guts to fake the military rank of a captain? The audacity of kids these days!”
“Hmph, I won’t be letting you go scot-free today. I will bring you back to the military and thoroughly investigate!”
As he said that, he walked toward Lu Yu and was about to apprehend Lu Yu.
At that moment, the passersby gathered around and watched curiously.
“What’s going on?”
“From what he said, it seems like Lu Yu faked his military rank.”
“What? He faked his military rank?”
“That’s bold even for him, provoking the military, and he’s sure brave to risk his life to do that.”
“He’s just arrogant. I never thought he would dare to fake a military rank, and a captain’s too!”
“Oh… I understand now. He must have forged a military rank to scare off the five presidents. What a sneaky guy.”
“Shit, so that’s how it is. I knew it! It’s impossible for him to be a match for the five presidents.”
“The truth is out now, and we can take him in. He has talent, but he clearly went down the wrong path.”
The discussions around him made Lu Yu speechless.
These people thought they had seen through everything.
Although Lu Yu wasn’t sure why he had become a captain, it must have had something to do with the badge on his chest.
But that’s weird, as this badge wasn’t a captain’s.
Moreover, he never got the news that he was a captain, nor did he have an epaulette stating that.
“You must be mistaken; there’s no way I’m a captain. Don’t try to trick me.”
However, the guard snorted coldly. “Stop your nonsense. You have committed a great crime, so I will bring you back and give you a trial!”
As he said this, he stretched out his right hand, about to grab Lu Yu’s arm.
At the same time, his other hand had already prepared the handcuffs.
However, just as he stretched out his hand, a thick and sturdy arm suddenly reached out from the side and grabbed his right wrist.
“Who dares meddle in my business!”
The guard shouted angrily and turned his head to look. He froze on the spot when he saw who it was.
A big, muscular man stood beside him while grabbing onto his right hand, and his physique was much stronger than his!
The person was Wang Meng. He originally came here to see all the commotion and immediately rushed over when he saw Lu Yu.
“Wang Meng, why are you here?” Lu Yu was surprised as he did not expect to meet Wang Meng here.
Wang Meng looked at Lu Yu and revealed a simple, honest smile. “Brother, have you forgotten? You appointed me as the captain of the dojo’s stronghold, and I’m heading there to take up my post.”
Lu Yu nodded. “I just remembered that I did assign you that, but I didn’t expect you to make your move so quickly.”
Wang Meng chuckled. “Of course. Why wouldn’t I rush over for such a wonderful thing, being a captain of a stronghold? I would’ve been stupid not to.”
At that moment, the guard interrupted their conversation.
“Where did you come from, and does this have anything to do with you? Did you also participate in forging his military rank?”
Wang Meng looked at him in confusion. “What are you talking about? Who faked his military rank?”
The guard pointed at Lu Yu and declared, “Him!”
Wang Meng looked at Lu Yu and scratched his head. “Sorry, I couldn’t see where he faked his military rank. Did you perhaps see wrongly?”
The guard looked at Wang Meng angrily. “What nonsense are you on? How could I have seen it wrongly? What do you take me for? An idiot?”
Wang Meng shrugged. “It’s hard to say…”
The guard gritted his teeth and clenched his fists. He suppressed his anger and explained, “In short, this badge makes me believe that he faked a military rank!”
Wang Meng looked at Lu Yu’s chest and said, “There is indeed a new badge. Is there a problem?”
The surrounding crowd also started murmuring.
“How could this badge make him a captain? No way, right?”
“I’ve seen a real captain in video footage, and it’s completely different from Lu Yu’s. How could it be related?”
“I think the guard must have made a mistake and misunderstood Lu Yu.”
“Indeed. This is just an ordinary badge, not?”
“…”
Everyone looked at Lu Yu, waiting for his explanation.
“This badge was given to me personally by Mr. Wan Guliu. How could it be fake?”
When Lu Yu said this, the guard immediately lashed out.
“What are you talking about? Why in the world would Mr. Wan Guliu personally give you a badge? You must be dreaming!”
“This badge was definitely not given to you by Sir Wan Guliu. This is a fake!”
He said it with certainty.
However, at this moment, someone in the crowd couldn’t sit still anymore.
Some of them had watched the live broadcast and saw that Lu Yu’s badge was indeed given by Wan Gu Liu personally. At the very least, it wasn’t faked!
“There’s no way there’s a mistake. This badge was given by Wan Gu Liu personally.”
“Sheesh, are you serious? This is crazy news to me. Wan Guliu is a military leader, and you are telling me he came here personally to give Lu Yu a badge?”
“You didn’t watch the live broadcast, did you? We all saw it, so it must be true!”
“Oh my God, this badge actually represents the position of a captain. It’s impossible!”
“But there’s no way this badge represents a captain’s position! There must be some mistake!”
The guards listened to the discussions around them and fell into deep thought.
“Hey, what are you guys talking about? Could it be… that Wan Guliu really gave out this badge?”
