Upon hearing Niu Dazhi's voice, Cui Hongxia felt increasingly uneasy, because she could detect a hint of joy in his voice. Why was that?
Was it merely because he was happy that she was about to pay the remaining amount?
Cui Hongxia stopped in her tracks, her brows furrowed, and hesitated to move forward.
Niu Dazhi's heart skipped a beat. He involuntarily glanced at Lin Chang'an, but then he remembered something and quickly looked away, asking Wang Jianqiang, "Brother Qiang, why did that woman suddenly stop? Did she discover something unusual?"
However, Wang Jianqiang did not answer. He put one hand in his pocket and shook his leg, looking as if it was none of his business.
"Brother Qiang, this will get you a longer sentence!"
Niu Dazhi was worried about Wang Jianqiang.
Instead of cooperating with the police in arresting people, he acted as if he didn't care what happened and it was none of his business. This was clearly a lack of cooperation, and the police would definitely take it to heart and add another charge to his record.
"You talk too much."
Glancing at Niu Dazhi, Wang Jianqiang beckoned to Cui Hongxia, signaling her to come over.
However, Cui Hongxia remained standing in place. She hadn't missed Niu Dazhi's glance at Lin Chang'an. At this moment, she was highly vigilant, looking at Lin Chang'an and the woman standing next to him.
Then, she shifted her gaze to the man standing against the wall about four or five meters away from her.
The next moment, Cui Hongxia turned around and strode away.
"Quick! Grab her!"
Lin Chang'an spoke up, but he instructed his female colleague Zhao Xiao'e beside him: "Keep an eye on the two of them!" This was undoubtedly to prevent Niu Dazhi and Wang Jianqiang from escaping.
"good."
Zhao Xiao'e nodded.
Lin Chang'an ran towards Cui Hongxia, but by the time he got there, Cui Hongxia had already been restrained by another male colleague.
"Let me go!"
With her hands tied behind her back, Cui Hongxia struggled violently and shouted angrily at the police officer restraining her, "Do you know who I am? If you don't let go, I'll scream for help!"
"Behave yourself!"
The police officer who restrained Cui Hongxia's hands was named Hou Qing'an, a veteran policeman in his thirties. He righteously rebuked Cui Hongxia.
"Brother Hou."
Lin Chang'an called out to Hou Qing'an, and just then, Zhao Xiao'e suddenly exclaimed, "Stop right there! Wang Jianqiang, stop right there!" It turned out that Wang Jianqiang saw that only Zhao Xiao'e was watching him and Niu Dazhi, so he thought of escaping, and he did indeed put his plan into action.
First, she pushed Niu Dazhi toward Zhao Xiao'e, then ran like a madman toward a nearby alley.
"I'm going to arrest Wang Jianqiang!"
Upon hearing Zhao Xiao'e's shout, Lin Chang'an greeted Hou Qing'an and then chased after Wang Jianshe.
As he ran past Zhao Xiao'e, he said to her, "Take Niu Dazhi and go back to the station with Brother Hou first!"
Yes, Niu Dazhi didn't run away. Wang Jianqiang pushed him onto Zhao Xiao'e, and they both fell to the ground. By the time he got up, Zhao Xiao'e had already chased after Wang Jianqiang, but he didn't take the opportunity to escape.
"Let's go."
Hou Qing'an, holding Cui Hongxia captive, beckoned Niu Dazhi to follow, completely ignoring Cui Hongxia's angry shouts.
Why didn't you run away?
"Those who make mistakes should be punished by law."
Where can it run to?
Nowadays, you need a letter of introduction or a certificate from your workplace to go out. Even if you are lucky enough to escape, are you going to hide in the deep mountains and become a wild man?
Besides, his and Wang Jianshe's home is in the town. They can run away, but they can't hide. As long as they have contact with their families, it's only a matter of time before they are caught.
At that point, the sentence will definitely have to be extended!
Niu Dazhi is 17 years old. He graduated from junior high school and has two older brothers and one older sister. His eldest brother works at a cannery in town, while his second brother and sister both became educated youth after graduating from high school. He is the youngest.
His family found him a temporary job to avoid him having to go to the countryside, but he complained that the temporary job paid too little and couldn't stand it, so he was fired without any surprises and started hanging out with Wang Jianqiang.
At this moment, Niu Dazhi, or more precisely, at the moment when Song Lan caught him last night and said she would hand him, Li Dahai, and Wang Jianqiang over to the police station, was filled with remorse.
I deeply understand that I must not do bad things!
Otherwise, you'll end up in jail sooner or later.
"If you have this awareness, why commit a crime?"
Hou Qing'an asked.
"I……"
Can he say that he was easily swayed, couldn't endure hardship, and was persuaded by Wang Jianshe's few words to think that being a petty thug would allow him to live a life of luxury and make money quickly, and that's why he... that's why he made a mistake?
"Can't resist temptation, right?"
Upon hearing Hou Qing'an's words, Niu Dazhi's eyes widened immediately. Clearly, Hou Qing'an had hit the nail on the head regarding Niu Dazhi's thoughts.
"Let me go! Let me go! My family is in Beijing. If you dare treat me like this, my family will never let you get away with it!"
Cui Hongxia was so embarrassed by the strange looks from passersby on the street that she wanted to disappear. She was very concerned about her reputation and had never been stared at so openly before. At this moment, she felt a surge of anger and felt like she had lost all face and dignity, as if she were naked in public.
Hou Qingan: "Where your family is located and what your family background is cannot change the fact that you have committed a crime."
"Who do you think you are? Even if I did commit a crime, it's none of your business."
Cui Hongxia's eyes were filled with malice, as if she wanted to tear Hou Qing'an to pieces.
"I am a police officer working at the town police station. You will understand the problem once you get to the station."
Hou Qing'an uttered a sentence without changing his expression.
"So the police can arrest me? What crime have I committed? Tell me!" Cui Hongxia roared, "You're just a local policeman from a small town. I advise you not to make a big deal out of nothing!"
"Auntie, the police station already knows about your deal with Brother Qiang. I think it would be better if you confessed everything when you got to the police station. That way, you might be able to get leniency!"
Niu Dazhi advised Cui Hongxia.
"Who are you calling 'auntie'?"
Cui Hongxia retorted angrily: "Am I that old? I'm just a small-time hoodlum. Stop spouting nonsense. I don't even know you. What kind of bullshit deal would I make with you?!"
"No matter how well you cover yourself up, Auntie, I can recognize you at a glance."
Niu Dazhi muttered to himself, "Auntie, I remember the black mole the size of a mung bean under your right eye, as well as your figure and voice!"
-
Police station.
Cui Hongxia refused to cooperate with the police officers' questioning, and kept mentioning that she wanted to call her family in Beijing. Faced with this situation, the police officers at the station were at their wits' end.
"Lock him up first."
Upon seeing Lin Chang'an escort Wang Jianqiang back, the police station chief gave an order.
"Yes, Director."
Lin Chang'an responded.
When he returned, he heard Zhao Xiao'e say, "That woman didn't say anything, she just kept saying she was going to call her family in Beijing."
Upon hearing this, Lin Chang'an couldn't help but recall the case of spreading rumors he had handled not long ago. He frowned: "This is yet another case of someone trying to escape legal punishment by relying on their family's connections." He wasn't asking a question; he was stating a fact directly.
