During his internship, Bai Song had seen quite a few police fights, but at that time he was just helping out. In fact, what he did was similar to that of an auxiliary police officer. He did not need to think about what to do, nor did he have to take any responsibility. Therefore, his mentality was completely different from when he is on duty now.
Ma Xi turned on the police lights and drove fast and steadily. In just a few minutes, he arrived at the scene, a vegetable market, which was already surrounded by a crowd of people.
Needless to say, places with many people are definitely places to call the police.
When the people at the scene saw the police coming, they immediately made way for each other and all looked at Bai Song and Ma Xi.
Bai Song thought he couldn't handle this situation. If the police station asked him to take the auxiliary police to solve the problem, he would be scared before he even went in. At this moment, Bai Song was extremely grateful to his leader and master for the arrangement.
Ma Xi didn't feel anything and just took Bai Song into the crowd.
As soon as he entered the circle, he saw two people lying on the ground. Bai Song's expression tensed at first. Just as he was about to speak, he remembered what his master taught him yesterday: "Talk less and watch more." He immediately looked at Ma Xi, ready to help.
After calming down a little, Bai Song observed that the two people lying on the ground were not injured at all. They both claimed that they were beaten by each other and could not move.
There were two parties, one was a foreigner, a fruit seller, a man in his forties, and the other was a local, also in her forties, a woman.
The people around were talking at the same time, but basically nothing was made clear. Most of them were just there to watch the fun.
Ma Xi first asked the two people if they needed an ambulance, and both said yes.
"Let me tell you first, an ambulance costs hundreds of dollars. It's not free like ours. Even though yours is a case of fighting, you have to pay for it yourself in the early stage. If you are really seriously injured, call an ambulance. I absolutely agree." Ma Xi said this after he had already seen through the fact that the two men were not injured at all.
"Then I won't call for now, but policeman, I feel bad now. He beat me. I have to go to the hospital for treatment later, and he has to pay for it." said the woman.
"I won't call an ambulance yet, but let me tell you, police officer, she beat me. I also have a heart attack now. I have to go to the hospital and she has to get money." The man immediately fought back.
The two spoke with great energy. Even though Bai Song was stupid, he could see that there was nothing wrong with the two of them. They were just afraid that they would suffer if they stood up first.
"Tell me what happened first." Ma Xi said to the woman.
"Police officer, this is what happened! I just came to buy bananas, and they told me they were two yuan a pound. When I saw them, the bananas were pretty good. I saw that it was not easy for this man, an outsider, to set up a stall, so I thought of buying some. Let me make it clear, police officer, I am not the kind of person who takes advantage of others! I took a few bananas and asked him to weigh them for me, but the electronic scale showed four yuan and ninety-five cents. Please be fair. In this world, only sellers round off the price, but this banana seller, what a good thing! He actually told me to give five yuan! Why! Am I the kind of person who is short of that five cents! But he is lying here, this is a liar! What's more, he wanted to hit me just after I said a few words to him. Oh my God, what kind of world is this!" The woman was a little fat, and she was dancing on the ground. Bai Song couldn't bear to look at her.
"Brother police officer, don't listen to what she said. I did weigh it out for four dollars and ninety-five cents. I said I had been setting up a stall here and didn't have much change today. I told her that I could charge five dollars this time and I would give her a discount next time she comes to buy. But she..." The man argued.
"Don't talk nonsense to the police! That's not what you just said to me! How about just collecting five dollars first? That's not the tone you used just now! Okay! You just used a directly domineering and commanding tone," the woman said louder, interrupting the man's explanation.
Bai Song was speechless. A few days ago, he went to the Sanlin Road Police Station to see a case where a quarrel broke out over whether or not to get a 20-cent change. Bai Song thought that was the lowest amount. He really didn't expect that there would be such a quarrel over a 5-cent amount.
Both sides keep saying that this is for the sake of face, not because of this five cents thing, but if this situation is not about money, then what is it because of?
No matter how you think about it, this dispute is troublesome enough. There are too many people here. We can't just listen to both sides finish their words like the case on Sanlin Road. There are too many people, and the two parties will never stop for the sake of so-called face.
"Bai Song, go get a notebook and write down the information of the people around here. Whoever saw it, bring it back to the station to make a witness statement. For those who didn't see it, ask them to stand back." Ma Xi ordered.
Bai Song thought, even though there are so many people standing there, there may not be a single one who is really willing to testify. People nowadays are more interested in watching the fun. However, he still listened to Ma Xi and started asking the person closest to him.
When the people around heard that they were going to be taken back to the police station to take statements and register their information, dozens of people immediately dispersed and moved five meters away from the scene.
Bai Song immediately understood Ma Xi's intention. He looked around at the crowd that had already retreated and walked towards the person closest to him.
When this person saw that Bai Song wanted to record his information, he immediately waved his hands, indicating that he knew nothing, and then turned and left.
After Bai Song did this, most of the onlookers left at once, and the remaining ones were only seven or eight meters away.
"If you two continue to lie there, I will call an ambulance for you and take you to the hospital first." Ma Xi said, "If you have any questions, wait until you two have finished seeing the doctor, then come with me to the police station to get the record. I will explain to you again that in principle, in cases of fighting, you should advance the medical expenses first, and compensation will be discussed later."
Ma Xi picked up the phone and pretended to call. At this time, the two "seriously injured" patients lying on the ground miraculously healed and stood up together, but they still looked defiant and ignored each other.
Don't underestimate Ma Xi's words, they are definitely the perfect combination of experience and timing. If it were Bai Song, in such a chaotic situation, it would be impossible to handle it even if someone taught him step by step.
"Okay, we're all busy and no one is injured. I'll make the decision. Don't buy bananas from this store. I think the one next door is good." Ma Xi said to the woman, and then said to the fruit seller, "I paid for your bananas with my own money. They cost four dollars and ninety-five cents, right? If you give me two grapes, I'll give you five dollars."
"Hey! Policeman, look at what you said. It's not like we can't afford the bananas. Let me pay, I'll give him ten yuan, and you can take the bananas and eat them. It's my treat." The woman felt that she was saved after listening to Ma Xi's words, so she continued.
