"What's your daughter's name? I'll look it up for you!"

"Lin Yueru!" he whispered the name.

Xiao Wu's expression immediately changed. Remembering how that woman looked down on people and said such awful things, his tone involuntarily became more arrogant.

"She has been detained."

Lin Hongzhi ignored the other person's unpleasant expression and continued to speak with a smile.

"I want to know what she did wrong, and I want to apply for visitation rights!"

Xiao Wu thought the man was alright and approachable, so he told him, "She's been causing trouble outside, and there's plenty of evidence and witnesses to prove it."

Lin Hongzhi: "I want to know, what kind of people did she get into this with?"

As he spoke, he reached into his pocket and placed a pack of premium cigarettes on the table.

Seeing that the other party was quite generous, and that he was already very fortunate to get benefits while working the night shift, Xiao Wu decided not to hide anything anymore.

"He got into a fight with a soldier, something like—" He couldn't finish the sentence.

"Gu Lingxiao!" someone nearby chimed in.

Xiao Wang quickly chimed in, "Yes, that's the person. He brought people here to report the case, and he also brought witnesses."

"Gu Lingxiao?" Lin Hongzhi couldn't believe what he was hearing. The two families were about to become in-laws, so how could something like this happen?

Are you sure it's this person?

Xiao Wu took a sip of tea and said, "Yes, that's the person. He came in a military uniform and showed his identification. The witnesses also showed their identification. You could say the chain of evidence is conclusive!"

Lin Hongzhi slammed his fist on the table in anger. "That brat! He wanted to marry my daughter, but he ended up sending her to jail! I'll make them pay with their lives!"

Xiao Wu suddenly realized he'd stumbled upon a juicy story and felt sorry for the old man, so he gathered his thoughts and began to tell him...

"The specific situation seems to be that Comrade Gu has a girlfriend, and your daughter kept arguing with them, verbally abusing them and preventing them from treating Comrade Gu's mother. That's roughly what happened."

Lin Hongzhi frowned slightly. He understood the general meaning of what the other party said, but the combination of the words was so intriguing.

"You mean that guy surnamed Gu has a girlfriend, my daughter found out, and then they had a fight, is that what you mean?"

Xiao Wu: "Yes, that's exactly it. They want to hold your daughter responsible. You know the current policies. Once someone goes to jail, first they'll lose their job, and then they'll be sentenced! The crime of verbal abuse can be serious or minor!"

Lin Hongzhi was so angry he almost couldn't breathe. He then roared, "That kid stole the food and my daughter found out. How did it become my daughter's fault? Why are they all unharmed?"

Xiao Wu was startled by the other party's shout. "Old comrade, don't come at us. You still need to find the person involved. If they can withdraw their complaint, maybe the person can be released."

Lin Hongzhi was furious; he wished he could fly to the military base right now, but he knew he couldn't. So he could only speak politely to the officers at the law enforcement office.

"I'd like to see my daughter. Can you apply for that for me?"

To get rid of the person, Xiao Wu readily agreed, "Of course, I'll write a report for you right now, and you can come over tomorrow to meet the person directly!"

Lin Hongzhi gripped the other person's hands tightly, "Thank you, young comrade. I'll treat you to dinner after this is over!" He then looked at the person next to him, "This comrade joins us too, let's go to the best restaurant!"

Xiao Wu sensed the other person's eagerness and could only say tactfully, "Let's skip the meal; it's against the rules!"

Lin Hongzhi slowly withdrew his hand. "Then you guys go ahead with your work, I'll head back now."

"Take this thing with you!" Xiao Wu shouted immediately afterward.

Lin Hongzhi pretended not to hear, turned around, left the law enforcement office, got into his car, and immediately said when he saw people chasing after him,

"Drive now!"

The driver immediately did as instructed and drove away; they had done this many times before.

After seeing the car drive away, Xiao Wu didn't chase after it. He took the things back and asked Xiao Xue on duty, "Should we take these things or not?"

Xiao Xue closed the notebook. "I advise you not to accept it. That soldier is not someone to mess with. You need to understand one thing: there are retired soldiers everywhere. If he has any powerful connections, we'll be the ones who suffer in the end."

Xiao Wu immediately put the things down. "You're right. Then give them to the captain tomorrow and let him handle them!"

He was a little reluctant to accept the cigarettes and alcohol, but he also understood that some things were indeed unacceptable, or he might lose his job.

His family paid a lot of money to get him into the law enforcement team, and he plans to stay there for life, at least to become the director!
