"Mom! Stop talking, I didn't buy it from this lady!"
The girl looked to be only sixteen or seventeen years old. She choked back tears, clutching the hem of her clothes, her nails digging deep into her palms. She cried uncontrollably, large tears falling onto her clothes.
"That day you gave me twenty-five yuan, and I went to buy popsicles, but I accidentally lost five yuan. Later, I saw the exact same dress in the alley next door for only eighteen yuan, and thinking that I could make up for the loss, I was bewitched and bought it..."
As a result, I didn't notice that there was a razor blade sewn into the sleeve. When I took it home and tried it on, I found that my arm had been cut with a large gash. I was scolded and beaten by my mother. I was scared and never dared to tell the truth.
Upon hearing this, the woman felt utterly humiliated. Her face turned a deep shade of liver color. She grabbed a broom from the corner of the wall and began to smash it against her daughter's head, cursing and swearing.
"You good-for-nothing! You've learned to lie now? I'll beat you to death!"
Captain Li and Officer Tan reacted quickly, stepping forward to stop the woman from waving her broom and pulling her aside by her arms.
"Don't do it!"
"You can't discipline children with physical violence; you have to talk things out!"
But the woman was furious and wouldn't listen to any advice.
She broke free of her restraints and chased her daughter around the house.
The sounds of tables and chairs overturning and cries mingled together, turning the investigation area into chaos.
The woman chased after him, screaming hysterically:
"I bought you this dress so you could go on a blind date, and you can't even handle this simple thing!"
"You worthless slut, nobody wants you! Why don't you just die!"
......
Foul language kept pouring out of her mouth, becoming increasingly offensive.
Captain Li's face darkened, and with a wave of his hand, he called over seven or eight police officers, who then dragged the woman into the interrogation room, telling her to calm down.
As for Zhou Qiqi, although her innocence has been proven, it is still necessary to take a brief statement and explain the situation.
The current situation clearly indicates that someone is copying Zhou Qiqi's designs and selling them, but they are using all inferior products with very rough workmanship; they didn't even realize that a blade had been sewn into the product.
The little girl bought a substandard item because it was cheap, but she didn't dare tell her mother, which ended up getting Zhou Qiqi into trouble.
In short, it was a huge misunderstanding and had nothing to do with Zhou Qiqi.
She is not a suspect at all; on the contrary, she is a complete victim.
After taking Zhou Qiqi's statement, Captain Li patted her on the shoulder.
“We will investigate this person later. Once we find her, you can report her to the Industry and Commerce Bureau for infringing on your rights.”
Zhou Qiqi bit her lower lip and pondered for a moment, a sharp and mean face appearing in her mind.
"I might know who that person is. Please check it out as soon as possible."
As she spoke, she described Ran Hongxia's name and general appearance.
"Having a clue makes things easier!"
Captain Li's eyes lit up.
"That saves us the trouble. Just leave your contact information and address, and we'll let you know when we get back to you."
"OK."
Zhou Qiqi nodded and wrote down her address and phone number on the paper.
As I handed it over, I could hear the old woman still cursing in the interrogation room not far away. I bit my lip and said...
"Also, Captain Li, could you please help persuade and counsel that young girl? I'm afraid she might do something drastic."
"Okay, I understand."
Captain Li nodded solemnly, took the note, glanced at it disrespectfully, and then his eyes suddenly widened.
"Haiziwan Military Dependents Area...So you're a military spouse?"
A smile instantly appeared on his face.
"No wonder he's so capable! He doesn't panic at all when things happen!"
As he spoke, he excitedly pulled a discharge certificate from the drawer.
“I’m also a retired soldier, and I know many officers in your military region well! Including Shen Huaichuan, a combat hero in your military region, who used to be my student! We just met in the director’s office at the end of last month!”
Zhou Qiqi was taken aback. No wonder Captain Li's cold demeanor seemed familiar earlier; he was also a soldier!
She quickly reached out her hand, "Since you are a teacher in Huaichuan, then I should call you teacher too!"
Captain Li's eyes widened even more.
"You...you wouldn't happen to be Huaichuan's newlywed wife, would you?"
These are our own people, Captain Li slapped his thigh in regret.
"Oh dear, why didn't you say so sooner! Did I scare you just now?"
Zhou Qiqi quickly shook her head, "The teacher handled the case quite fairly, it's just that Officer Huang..."
Judging from his demeanor, he must have bullied countless ordinary people in the past by taking advantage of his status.
It was only because Zhou Qiqi was fearless that he didn't bully her.
Captain Li said.
"Don't worry, I'll handle it later. I'll stop him from handling cases and send him to feed the dogs at the military dog unit!"
Zhou Qiqi hurriedly stopped her.
"No, no, no, I'm afraid he'll feed the military dogs. What if he feeds the dogs and then beats the furry kids?"
Captain Li stroked his chin.
"That's true. If all else fails, we can send him to the detention center to watch over prisoners. Anyway, he'll be guilty of watching anyone!"
This is a good place. The two looked at each other and smiled.
After exchanging a few more pleasantries, Zhou Qiqi noticed that it was getting late, already past ten o'clock, and quickly said that she had to go back to set up her stall.
"Then I'll take you there!"
Captain Li immediately spoke up, but Zhou Qiqi quickly waved her hand, as she didn't want to be treated specially.
Captain Li couldn't persuade him otherwise, so he had to arrange for his men to escort her.
Before leaving, Captain Li patted Zhou Qiqi on the shoulder mysteriously and said something.
