Chapter 48 Reverse Extortion
Xu Chunhai was in so much pain that he couldn't help but cry out.
He grimaced and cursed in pain.
Unexpectedly, when he opened his eyes, he saw that everyone was looking at him, and he was stunned.
He had been listening intently to the police officer reprimanding his parents, only wanting to play his part and try to get away with it.
Who knew that Zhao Fengxiu, the sixth sister, would get close to him and pinch his arm—it hurt terribly!
Zhao Fengxiu then shouted, "Police officers, look! His son is fine; they're here to extort money from him!"
If you hadn't brought them to the hospital, we wouldn't have known they were faking it! What about the doctor? What did the doctor say?
When Zhao Fengxiu shouted that, Xu's parents felt like the sky had fallen.
The police officers were also shocked, and just then the door was pushed open, and the doctor walked in.
The police stepped forward to inquire and asked for the medical records to review. Zhao Fengxiu also took a closer look and found that the Xu family had indeed only been hospitalized and had undergone a simple examination. There were no sequelae or problems at all!
Zhao Fengxiu continued shouting, "What have we, the Liu family, done to offend you? Why do you keep targeting us! Police officers!"
Shouldn't these people be arrested? They're unruly, belligerent, and troublemakers! They should be locked up!
Our two families have always been even, and we don't interfere with each other. Why do they still come to our door to cause trouble? Does this mean we can't do business anymore?
"Police officers, please help us!"
Seeing this scene, Xu Chunhai realized he had made a big mistake and quickly lay down again.
They still tried to fight back, and Xu's mother even knelt down and hugged the police officer's leg, saying, "My Chunhai has not offended anyone! Why did they beat my son to death back then?"
If the doctor hadn't cured him, my son would have died! If they hadn't beaten him, my son's girlfriend wouldn't have run away last year!
They should have married their son last year, and this year they're expecting a grandson! Shouldn't they compensate us? This is all the Liu family's fault! Comrade, make the Liu family give me back my grandson! Waaah!
Xu's mother wiped her snot and tears on the police officers' trousers, leaving them speechless.
The Xu family's entanglements are obvious to all.
Although the two elders of the Xu family are sixty years old, the Liu family is fifty!
Last year, I only noticed that the Xu family only had one son, Xu Chunhai, while the Liu family had four sons and three daughters, and was a large and wealthy family.
So even though the Xu family provoked us first last year, they were still seriously injured.
The only thing the Liu family could do was give the Xu family 680 yuan out of humanitarian considerations, but they never expected the Xu family to be so greedy and come back again this year!
Do they really think the police are a cash cow?
Zhao Fengxiu said, "My family's business is not doing well, and we won't make any money in the future. Will you compensate me?"
That wasn't cured by the doctor; it was clearly because we gave you money last year out of kindness that you got him treated! You've treated a heartless wretch! Otherwise, would your son have gotten better? He would have died long ago!
There are no aftereffects whatsoever, they're just not as sharp-witted anymore! They're trying to extort money from my shop, huh? Officers, we can't show them any favoritism this time!
These people who are causing so much trouble in Zhen'an should all be arrested, along with their entire family!
On one side, the Xu family was shouting, and on the other side, Zhao Fengxiu was shouting. Although the police officers had a headache, they were clear-headed.
"The Xu family, this is where you're wrong! Extortion and deception are unacceptable! Your son is perfectly healthy!"
Xu's mother pointed to the bed, "He's still lying there, comrade! Waaah..."
Zhao Fengxiu pressed on, pulling the doctor over and saying, "It seems you won't admit it until you see the coffin! Doctor! Tell the police what's really going on with his son?"
The doctor originally wanted to leave, but was afraid the police would have more questions.
Given how lively the room was, I couldn't help but linger for a while. When asked why, I explained, "It's clearly stated in the medical records that they came to do some tests the day before yesterday."
They were only hospitalized. We initially didn't want them to stay because we thought they were fine, but they insisted on crying and making a scene, so we couldn't do anything about it.
Fortunately, there weren't many patients and the rooms were empty, otherwise our hospital wouldn't allow this situation. Their son is also fine; he was cured last year, but he might have difficulty moving around.
"Officer, I'm done talking. Can we leave now? The other patients are waiting for us."
The police returned the medical records to the doctor.
Xu's mother was still crying and wailing that she was wronged, but their hands were already firmly closing in on her!
The police officer coldly replied, "The truth is out, and you still want to deny it? If you're going to keep making trouble like this, go make a scene at the station!"
Mr. and Mrs. Xu were dumbfounded. No matter how much they cried and made a fuss, the police officers insisted on taking them away.
Xu Chunhai finally couldn't stay still any longer and staggered to his feet to stop it.
"Comrades! My parents are only doing this for my own good. Please don't make things difficult for them. They're both sixty years old! They can't take any more trouble! Please let them go!"
Zhao Fengxiu said, "If we let them go, who will let us go? We can't let them go so easily! Otherwise, who will compensate us for the damage to the reputation of our oil pressing shop?"
And my... grandson.
The sound of footsteps approached.
Lin Jingyi pushed open the door and punched Xu's mother twice in front of the two police officers!
"You old hag! It's all your fault for pushing! My son is injured, I'm not finished with you! And my mother's shop is going to be liquidated!"
Last year, my mother kindly gave you 680 yuan! And this year you still come to cause trouble! Do you think the Liu family deserves this? Isn't my son innocent?
He's only four years old! And you old hag pushed him to the ground! It's all your fault! You two old geezers!
Lin Jingyi wanted to continue hitting him after she finished speaking, but was stopped by the police officers.
“Now that things are clear, let us take the interrogation records back to the station. They can’t escape. You all come with us.”
...
Inside the police station.
Faced with several serious and upright police officers, Xu's parents dared not cause any more trouble.
They lowered their heads and explained everything clearly, even revealing details about Xu Chunhai.
Lin Jingyi was furious and wanted to go up and beat them up again.
Zhao Fengxiu gave her a look, indicating that money was the priority at this time!
Lin Jingyi understood and took out the hospital's treatment list, which recorded Liu Chengyu's injuries, expenses, and subsequent hospitalization.
"It was all that old shrew's fault! All told, including the subsequent hospitalization and other issues, they should compensate me 380 yuan!"
My son is only four years old! What will become of him?
The police officers obtained the list and examined it carefully.
Xu's parents couldn't sit still, but they couldn't stand up. They could only sob and say they had no money!
Zhao Fengxiu said, "Then let's lock you all up! We'll release you when we have money! If we don't do this, won't people be able to easily bully and extort us in the future?"
The police officer nodded, then slammed his fist on the table and roared, "What other objections do you have? See for yourselves!"
The list was then handed to Xu's mother.
Mrs. Xu took the list, her hands trembling, and said incredulously, "Impossible! I just gave him a light push, at most he'd scrape his knee and chaf his hand!"
How could he still have so many injuries? Can't he hear? Is he dizzy? He didn't even hit his head!
And what's causing this chest tightness and shortness of breath? That doesn't make sense!
"Officers! This is extortion! How can someone be so badly injured after just one shove?"
