Chapter 278 Officer, what procedures are needed to change my surname?
However, I had just arrived at the bar lobby.
Led by Huo Chen's fiancée, followed by two bruised and battered cronies, they stormed in with two police officers.
Shen Rui pointed at Qin Nianke, "Police officer! She's the one who hit people!"
Then, pointing at Yan Buyu, he added, "And her! She came carrying a stick and weapons."
Song Jingyi narrowed his eyes and stood in front of his sister. He stared at Shen Rui and said in a flat tone, "You can try pointing a little more."
The man in front of me was good-looking, but he didn't seem like a respectable person.
His casual remark sent a chill down Shen Rui's spine, and she immediately withdrew her hand.
She pretended to be calm and took two steps back. She didn't believe that with the police around, this person couldn't do anything.
Two police officers walked up to Qin Nianke and Yan Buyu and said, "Someone reported that you two assaulted someone. Come with us."
As Shen Yanzhou, who had just finished cleaning up the mess, walked out, his brow furrowed.
"What happened?" He came over; hadn't he just explained everything?
Shen Rui clearly remembered there were only three women just now, how come there are so many more all of a sudden?
Moreover, their clothes looked more expensive than Huo Chen's, and they had a much more impressive air about them.
Suddenly, I felt a little unsure.
She suddenly shouted, "You guys have powerful connections, huh?! Everyone come quick! Someone's using their family's privileges to come here and beat people up!"
The bar manager looked at her like she was an idiot.
It's rare to see someone so eager to die.
The police asked the manager for the room's surveillance footage, and the manager readily agreed.
But the conclusion was that the surveillance system was broken, and he didn't know when it had broken.
Si Jingxu walked over to Yan Buyu and said, "You guys go home first, I'll handle this."
Qin Nianke waved her hand dismissively, "No, I want to go to the police station! Officer! I need to report a theft! Someone stole from me and charged me 100,000 yuan!"
Just as Si Jingxu was about to say something to her, his right hand was grasped by a soft little hand.
He lowered his head, his eyes bright and silent, with a hint of coquettishness, "Brother Jingxu, I've never been to a police station before, can you handle this?"
Si Jingxu chuckled softly, and couldn't resist kissing her forehead. "Go ahead."
Song Jingyi glanced at it and thought it was passable; he spoiled the child quite a bit.
The other people are all powerful and influential people from wealthy and powerful families, so this is nothing special for them.
Just keep the kids entertained.
Furthermore, to put it bluntly, Yan Buyu and Qin Nianke's actions were at most a case of gang fighting, which would only require a few words of criticism and education.
It's hard to say what happened to Huo Chen, who was carried into the car.
Let's say it's been at least a few years since the theft.
Yan Buyu and Qin Nianke got into the police car.
Everything was quite new. "This is my first time riding in a police car," Yan Buyu said.
“Who isn’t? I’m a good citizen too, and I never cause trouble for the government.” Qin Nianke leaned back. “Shouldn’t we find a lawyer?”
"It's okay, my older brother is here." Yan Buyu turned her head and saw that the first car following the police car was Si Jingxu's. She chuckled, "Your cousin is here too, don't be afraid."
The older policeman in the passenger seat turned to the two girls and lectured them, "Young ladies, why are you fighting with people? Apologize properly to them later, pay the compensation if necessary, and maybe you won't have to be detained."
Yan Buyu and Qin Nianke exchanged a glance, then pursed their lips, deciding not to say anything now.
Just as the veteran policeman was about to say something, his phone rang.
He answered the call, listened for a couple of sentences, and his expression seemed a little off.
After hanging up the phone, he slowly turned his head, his attitude changing 180 degrees, and asked cautiously, "Ladies, which one of you is surnamed Chen?"
Yan Buyu instantly realized that someone must have given instructions.
However, it wasn't clearly stated; it only mentioned the Shen family, without specifying her name.
She raised her hand like a primary school student asking a question, and sincerely inquired, "Officer, what procedures are required to change my surname?"
The old policeman chuckled twice. “Ms. Shen, I’ve turned off the recording. You and your friend should go over the matter again. When you entered the room, were the other party already in that state? It was dark, so you didn’t see them clearly. They’ve both drunk quite a bit. We’ve seen plenty of drunk people causing trouble.”
After listening, Yan Buyu and Qin Nianke understood immediately and nodded emphatically in unison, "Yes!"
Upon arriving at the police station, the two groups were separated to give their statements.
The two of them recorded as the old policeman instructed, and it was over in no time.
They were treated differently, receiving hot tea, hot water, and snacks.
Huo Chen was in so much pain that he couldn't stand or sit up, he couldn't open his eyes, and he couldn't speak clearly.
In the end, all you could hear was Shen Rui saying, "It was those two who did it, why do you keep asking me?"
"You saw it?" the older policeman asked her. "Didn't you run away? How much of what happened after that did you see? The surveillance footage is gone, so you can't just say whatever you want and let yourself slander people like that?"
"But! But! Huo Chen was perfectly fine when I went out!" Shen Rui slammed her hand on the table in agitation. "How could you do this!"
"Who are you banging on the table with!" the old policeman pointed at her. "Sit down! You have no evidence to falsely accuse someone of assault, but your boyfriend stole their credit card, which was clearly recorded by the bar's front desk! 100,000 yuan! Five to ten years!"
Shen Rui was stunned.
Even if she were stupid, she would know that fighting only requires paying compensation, while theft can lead to jail time.
She regretted it a little; she wished she hadn't called the police.
Perhaps if Huo Chen gets a beating, it will offset the 100,000 yuan owed to Qin Nianke.
What should we do now?
She doesn't have any money either.
The veteran policeman immediately understood and was stunned. He then advised in a gentler tone, "Go out and apologize to them properly, pay the money back, and try to get their forgiveness. You might not have to go to jail, and they won't pursue the matter of your false accusation."
Shen Rui reluctantly followed them out.
Her only intention was to vent her anger. Qin Nian was used to being arrogant and always bossed Huo Chen around, which prevented her from being open with her boyfriend.
If Qin Nianke pays some of the medical expenses, Huo Chen will definitely buy her the bag she's eyeing.
How did it get to this point?
Even though Huo Chen had previously treated them to drinks and karaoke at the bar, and had used Qin Nianke's card, she hadn't pursued the matter.
Several luxury cars were parked outside the police station.
Song Jingyi, Si Jingxu, and the two Shen brothers were waiting for their sister inside.
The other older brothers and sisters filled the entire hall.
But no one took it seriously, and they discussed where to take their younger sister for a late-night snack.
The automatic doors of the police station opened, and a man wearing a long trench coat entered.
His expression was serious. He quickly went over and asked the police officer on duty, "Hello, is there a man named Huo Chen here?"
People in the hall discussing food routes listened to the voices and sized up the tall, upright man.
Qi Feng narrowed his eyes and walked to Zhou Yixiao's side. "Xiaoxiao, I know who he is."
Zhou Yixiao responded with an "Oh," and said, "Whatever."
Qin Nianke and Yan Buyu signed the papers and prepared to leave.
They were stopped by someone.
“Miss Qin, I’m so sorry Huo Chen used your card. I’m here to pay off his debts. See how much he owes you in total, I’ll pay it all back.”
Qin Nianke looked up and exclaimed, "Wow, so handsome!"
Without saying a word or blinking, I wonder if the world is really that small.
Before Qin Nianke could reply, Shen Zhiye's hearty laughter came from outside.
"Yes, yes, that's my daughter. She's so well-behaved. Look at these clothes I bought for me. Aren't they pretty? Aren't you envious? It's your own fault for not having a daughter."
