Since the matter was brought to the police station, I arranged for a comrade there to mediate between the two. In the end, the young man was persuaded and said he would no longer harass the girl.
At this point, Lan Guoer was even more confused. Wasn't this just a normal civil dispute? How did it get involved with Uncle Zhou's family affairs?
"And what happened next?"
"I never expected it! From that day on, the girl would come to the office every now and then, bringing me food and scarves, always wanting to express her gratitude to me.
How could I make a mistake by accepting things from ordinary people? I told her to take the things back and told her not to come to the bureau again.
But this girl is really stubborn! She didn't go to the police station, and instead stayed on the road!
I tried to persuade her several times but she refused to listen, so I just took a detour!
Who would have thought that on New Year's Eve, she suddenly found her home and cried to your aunt, "Ah!"
Zhou Beian looked like he had swallowed a fly, his facial features twisted together, "She told your aunt that she had sex with me! And she asked your aunt to help us!
Your aunt also has a hot temper. She exploded when she heard about this! She started clamoring for a divorce from me, as if I had really done something wrong to her!
Now the whole police family compound is spreading the rumor that I, Zhou Beian, have someone outside and I am tired of the old and love the new!
The higher-ups also heard about it and gave the old man a heads-up, asking him to remind me to pay attention to my work style!
I really can’t wash myself clean even if I jump into the Yellow River!”
As Zhou Beian spoke, he collapsed completely!
Lan Guoer finally understood what happened!
If you tell her how much this woman likes Uncle Zhou, she won't believe it! They haven't had much contact, so how can they talk about friendship? Besides, Uncle Zhou is already in his forties or fifties. Even if he takes good care of himself, can he have the spirit of a young man in his twenties?
Lan Guoer sneered in her heart! If what Uncle Zhou said was true, then this woman must have been attracted by Uncle Zhou's power and wanted to become a phoenix!
However, this woman is really bold!
In this day and age, a woman's reputation is so important! If you lose your reputation, it will be difficult to marry into a good family!
She even risked her reputation to win the title of official wife!
Lan Guoer really didn't know whether to say she was smart or stupid!
However, the conditions for reconnaissance were limited in that era, and if the woman insisted that the two men had a relationship, it would not be easy to clarify.
Otherwise, Uncle Zhou, the head of the public security department, would not have been forced to this point.
Lan Guoer shook her head gently, "Uncle Zhou, the innocent will be innocent! There will always be a way to solve it! Let's go in first!"
"Then you have to persuade your grandparents! They won't listen to a word I say now! The old man is shouting that he wants to sever the father relationship with me!" Zhou Beian said helplessly.
"Don't worry!" Lan Guoer gave him a look and shouted into the house, "Grandpa, Grandma, Guoer is here to wish you a happy new year!"
Hearing Lan Guoer's voice, the two old people were slightly cheered up, but when they thought of the ugly things at home, they quickly became depressed again.
When Lan Guoer entered the house, she saw two old men sitting opposite each other on the sofa in the living room, dejected and silent.
"Grandpa Zhou, I brought you two bottles of good wine! You can't even ask me to sit down, right?"
Lan Guoer shook the wine in front of Mr. Zhou, placed it on the coffee table in front of him, and joked.
Old Master Zhou then glanced at her helplessly and said, "Sit down! Your grandfather, that old bastard, must be selling me again. I don't know how to educate my son, right?"
Lan Guoer sat beside him, "How could that be! My grandfather really trusts Uncle Zhou! He specifically asked me to remind you not to be fooled by the enemy's disguise!"
Mr. Zhou didn't believe it, "Can that old guy be so kind?"
Lan Guoer smiled and said, "You two elders have been through many battles, so you naturally see things more clearly than us young people. Grandpa Zhou, you are knowledgeable and experienced. Do you think there is a possibility that someone is coveting Uncle Zhou's power and wants to become a phoenix?"
Old Master Zhou rolled his eyes at his son. It was not like he hadn’t thought of this!
But he knew how important a woman's reputation was, and he didn't believe a twenty-something girl would risk her reputation for an uncertain status.
"What kind of girl would risk her reputation for an old man like your Uncle Zhou? That's stupid!"
"Don't tell me! The forest is big, but there are all kinds of birds!" Lan Guoer straightened herself. "To find out what happened, I guess we have to let the woman tell us herself."
Madam Zhou sighed, "Guo'er, why are you still confused? Aren't those rumors spread by that woman herself? What difference does it make if she says it?"
Lan Guoer smiled cunningly, "What she said may not be the truth, but I have something that can make her tell the truth.
When the time comes, we can record what she says, and then everything will be clear, right? "
"Is there really such a thing?" The three people in the room said in surprise in unison.
Zhou Beian was the most shocked. If such a thing really existed, wouldn't it be much more powerful for the police to handle cases?
Lan Guoer saw the hope in his eyes and smiled bitterly, "Yes, there is, but this thing is too scarce. I don't have much on hand, but it's enough for one use!"
How could Lan Guoer not see what Zhou Beian was thinking!
But she knew very well that the existence of everything has its pros and cons. If this fantasy powder fell into the hands of the wrong people, the disadvantages it brought would far outweigh its value.
Because of this, she will only control this fantasy powder in her own hands!
Old Master Zhou understood it clearly. "That's good! It's a blessing for this kid! Guo'er, tell us quickly, what should we do about this?"
Lan Guoer took out two packets of medicine powder from her pocket, placed them on the coffee table, and pointed at the first two packets and said,
"Here are two packets of powder. This packet is the kind of powder that can make people tell the truth. This packet is the antidote. When the time comes, you will take the antidote first, and then sprinkle the powder in front of the girl. She should tell the truth.
The rest shouldn't be difficult for Uncle Zhou, right?"
Lan Guoer looked at Zhou Beian, and Zhou Beian nodded.
Zhou Beian must have his own abilities to be able to reach the position of the top police officer in Kyoto! With this powder, the rest will be easy for him.
It would take time to resolve the problem. Seeing that the two old people were relieved, Lan Guoer left the Zhou family.
