Chapter Thirty-Five This World

  Su Yifan was being pressed into a police car when Chen Jianguo was standing in the lobby of Zhongjing International, looking out through the glass.

  For some reason, seeing this young man being taken away by the police car without any resistance made Chen Jianguo feel somewhat uneasy in his heart.

  It was an instinct, an instinct honed from years of business experience.

  Chen Jianguo just lost face, he certainly won't let it go. After coming out of the corridor, Chen Jianguo called Director Ma again and asked him to send someone to wait at a location two intersections away from Zhongjing International.

  No matter how arrogant Su Yifan behaves, Chen Jianguo always wants to try out this kid and the weight of his family behind him.

  After sending Chen Xin away, Zhou Bing returned to Chen Jianguo's side and whispered to ask for instructions: "Mr. Chen, do you want me to go try that kid?"

  Chen Jianguo shook his head: "No need, I just want to see how he takes it. Tomorrow you go and investigate this kid's background for me, and what kind of conflict he has with Chen Xin."

  "Yes." Zhou Bing was straightforward.

  Su Yifan didn't have any sense of being in a police car at all, looking around left and right as if he were on a sightseeing bus.

  The older policeman was driving in front, and the young policeman sat on the co-pilot, both of whom observed this boy who should still be a student from the rearview mirror.

  Half an hour ago, Director Ma received a call from Chen Jianguo, and thought that students fighting was not a big deal, so he casually sent two people out. Who knew that the old policeman immediately showed a bitter face when he heard about this matter.

  "Zhang Ge, it's just a small matter, but you still have to report to Director Chen. Why don't you seem too happy about it?"

  The old policeman nicknamed Zhang Ge rubbed his eyes and said, "When gods fight, the little ghosts suffer. Do you think the person who beat up Chen's son is an ordinary person?"

  The young policeman was unhappy as soon as he heard this: "What's wrong with that? People have close and distant relationships, since our superiors are on good terms with Director Chen, we should help whoever they want us to help."

  Zhang Ge sneered, "Little Peng, you don't understand this. If the relationship is good, why didn't he go himself? Ma Shuo Chang has nothing to do today, and if he went personally, how big of a favor would Chen Zong owe him? The two of us going, Chen Zong might not even be happy about it."

  Young police officer Xiao Peng didn't think so: "Brother Zhang, it's not what I said to you. Your steady and calm attitude is good, but this kind of attitude can easily miss out on good opportunities. Today, this is a personal call from Director Chen himself. If we can do him a favor, won't that open up more paths for us in the future?"

  "Alright then, you'd better behave yourself."

  Xiao Peng was energized by Zhang Ge's words and saw the young man described by Chen Zong standing at the entrance of Zhongjing International from a distance, and he couldn't wait to rush up and give this kid a few punches. But unexpectedly, Su Yifan cooperated super well, without saying a word, followed him onto the police car, not showing any signs of fear at all.

  From the rearview mirror, Su Yifan's face still had a faint smile on it. Xiao Peng was furious: "You little brat, stop smiling! You're intentionally hurting people, and you'll be in trouble when we get to the station!"

  Su Yifan changed his sitting posture and didn't even glance at the police officer who had just intimidated him.

  They arrived at the police station, and by nightfall, only the duty personnel were left. Xiao Peng pushed and pulled Su Yifan to take him upstairs, while Zhang Ge made an excuse that he needed to park his car and would go up later.

  The entire second floor of the police station was empty, with only the lights on in the corridor. Xiao Peng led Su Yifan to the interrogation room and pointed to a chair on the ground.

  "Sit still!"

  Su Yifan took a deep breath and sat down on that hard metal chair.

  It's my first time at a police station... Okay, today I've done too many things for the first time and can't count them all. To say that I'm not nervous is a lie, Su Yifan has never faced a national violent institution before.

  Tension begets tension, but Su Yifan's years of cultivating a habit of silence made him still look quite calm.

  This will be a long time for adults in the office, and Xiao Peng first made a phone call to ask Director Ma.

  "Director, I've brought him back with me, what should we do with him?"

  Su Yifan felt a surge of anger - students fighting, the side that reported to the police wasn't even present, and this police officer had already discussed with the principal over the phone how to handle it, how casual was that?

  Xiao Peng received a "you're in charge" response from his superior, and found that Su Yifan was staring at him with a strange gaze, which made him feel uncomfortable and suddenly furious.

  As the old saying goes, people are most prone to anger when they have a guilty conscience. Su Yifan's gaze at Xiao Peng was filled with disdain, making Xiao Peng feel that this young man was fiercely ridiculing him.

  "What are you looking at? Don't you know your behavior today has already constituted intentional injury?"

  Su Yifan stared at the police officer who obviously wanted to take him away, shaking his head and refusing to speak.

  "You think you can just keep quiet and get away with it? If you don't tell the truth today, you won't be able to leave this place!"

  Su Yifan still didn't make a sound, his gaze was much more stubborn than before.

  Xiao Peng originally opened the notebook and was already writing on the first page, but when he saw Su Yifan's appearance, he slammed the notebook onto the table with both hands.

  "Kid, don't be shameless! If you don't want to say anything, I won't be polite either!"

  For the first time in a violent organ, Su Yifan was somewhat flustered in his heart when he accepted the inquiry, but on the surface, he still looked very calm. He stared at this police officer Xiao Peng, who remained silent.

  Xiao Peng was truly angry, he had seen many kids like rolling knife meat. The eyes of those young people were at most a kind of disdain, not as serious as the boy in front of him.

  This seriousness is filled with an unpleasant feeling.

  Xiao Peng stood up, took off his jacket, and walked towards Su Yifan in the warm interrogation room. He wanted to pull Su Yifan up and give this kid a good scolding.

  Su Yifan sat steadily in his chair, watching as Xiao Peng walked over and grabbed him.

  At night, a person was at the police station, facing his own small police officer who needed to be repaired. Su Yifan didn't think it was scary at all, he thought that Su Xiaqing would think this kind of thing was nothing, and none of these things mattered.

  The most important thing is that I will no longer back down in my own life. No matter who or what I'm facing.

  As he watched Xiao Peng grab his own collar and try to pull himself up, Su Yifan finally realized how terrifying Oola was.

  If it were Oola who came to catch herself, she would probably have been lifted into the air long ago.

  Coincidentally, Xiao Peng's strength was not much stronger than those young men fighting at the school gate. Su Yifan almost instinctively reached out and grabbed Xiao Peng's wrist, his fingers pressing down along the bones of his wrist.

  A loud scream immediately came from the interrogation room, the intensity of which made it impossible to tell who had let out the sound.

  After a severe pain, Xiao Peng felt his entire right hand numb, and his fingers drooped down weakly.

  How could someone dare to lay hands on themselves? Xiao Peng stared at Su Yifan with an incredulous gaze, as if looking at a monster.

  Su Yifan didn't let go of Xiao Peng's hand, and he pressed down on it again with force.

  A scream was repeated once.

  Xiao Peng lifted his leg and wanted to kick Su Yifan, but was blocked by Su Yifan with a leg and shocked back.

  Su Yifan finally started speaking.

  "I advise you to figure out the situation at that time before asking me." Su Yifan deliberately said with a pretentious tone, "Even the person who reported the case didn't see it and yet you're planning to use force on me, your law enforcement is really fair."

  Xiao Peng knew that he himself might not be a match for the seemingly weak young man in front of him, so he could only desperately use useless moves like "your gaze can kill you a hundred times".

  Xiao Peng's obvious reluctance to take action made Su Yifan sigh, and in most cases, violence was indeed more effective than language.

  Su Yifan loosened his grip and took a step back.

  "I want to find the person who reported this and confront them in person."

  The level of handling a fight is very low and it's not considered a criminal case, so asking for a face-to-face confrontation to mediate is a very normal request. Su Yifan knew that Chen Xin was too afraid to come over and confront him after the previous beating had already scared him out of his wits, he absolutely didn't dare to come over and face him.

  Xiao Peng felt that he had unexpectedly been intimidated by a young man, and couldn't help but lower his head to adjust his collar, saying: "The person involved is in the hospital getting treated for injuries."

  Su Yifan also didn't speak, and sat back down in his chair, looking very determined.

  Su Yifan was also anxious in his heart, he was thinking if Cheng Shui'an's phone call got through.

  Xiao Peng was not willing to let Su Yifan get away with it, so he called to ask if the surveillance video from Zhongjing International had been retrieved. Only then did Su Yifan start to worry, realizing that he had forgotten to check if there were any cameras in the corridor when he hit Chen Xin.

  Xiao Peng's phone call had not finished yet when someone pushed open the door of the inquiry room and walked in.

  Su Yifan turned around to see a middle-aged man wearing casual clothes, with a face full of wrinkles that clearly showed the effects of excessive drinking.

  "Xiao Su, are you okay?"

  That Zhang brother who was said to be parking downstairs followed behind this middle-aged man with a wine nose, with a smile that seemed to see nothing unusual.

  Xiao Peng saw this middle-aged man and immediately stood up at attention.

  "Secretary Liu!"

  Secretary Liu waved his hand and spoke slowly but with great momentum: "Alright, you all pack up and let Comrade Su go. Today's matter was a misunderstanding."

  Su Yifan didn't know this Secretary Liu, but from the attitude of these two police officers, it can be seen that he should be the secretary of the Political and Legal Committee, but it's hard to say whether it's at the district or municipal level.

  Su Xiaqing acted very concisely, and she herself didn't even show up. After Secretary Liu arrived at the Xin Yue Police Station, he was in absolute command, and even Director Ma personally came to greet him.

  Ma Suochang wanted to hint to Secretary Liu that it was Chen Jianguo who reported the case, but Secretary Liu waved his hand: "In handling cases, we must be down-to-earth. You don't understand the situation well, and it's not right to arrest people directly. The person who reported the case didn't even come to the police station to make a record, and didn't follow the regular procedure. How can this convince the people?"

  With this big hat on, Ma Zong didn't dare to say anything. Secretary Liu's words meant that he didn't want to take advantage of the situation today, if he really did, nobody would have a good ending.

  Xiao Peng's face was sulky, and he didn't dare to look at Su Yifan, fearing that Su Yifan would take the opportunity to say something to Secretary Liu, and his job would be over.

  Su Yifan's good nature hadn't changed much, he also took a look at Little Peng, and in the end didn't say anything, only thanked Secretary Liu, warmly calling him Uncle Liu several times.

  Secretary Liu was very enthusiastic towards Su Yifan, and comforted him a few words before taking his leave. He didn't say anything that required Su Yifan to remember this favor.

  As Liu Secretary's car drove away, Director Ma still wanted to come over and say a few words to Su Yifan to smooth things over, but he saw the young man not even giving him a glance as he walked straight out of the police station gate and headed towards a black BMW parked at the entrance.

  A good car with three beautiful girls inside.

  "Good evening, beauties." Su Yifan felt like a completely different person after walking out of the police station. "It's not easy to hail a taxi, can I get a ride with you for the next segment?"

  Su Xiaoqing smiled and opened the car door for Su Yifan, letting him sit in the front passenger seat.

  Sitting in the warm car, Su Yifan let out a soft sigh: "This world... really isn't that great after all."
