"Have you eaten?" Wang Xiaohai asked casually when he saw that the woman was a little wary.
"I didn't eat it and I don't want to eat it." The woman sprinkled disinfectant on the wound, groaned in pain, gritted her teeth and stopped talking. Three minutes later, she continued to bandage the wound with gauze.
"Why are they chasing you?" Although it was late at night, Wang Xiaohai had reached the level of a martial arts master and would be fine even if he didn't sleep for a year.
"Why are you asking me? Ask them." The woman seemed to avoid the question.
"What's your name?" Wang Xiaohai asked in a different way.
"Why are you asking me my name? Are you a police officer checking my identity?" The woman was very alert.
"If you continue not to answer me, I might hand you over to the police," said Wang Xiaohai.
"It doesn't matter. If I'm sent to the police, the most I can get is a charge of intentional injury, and then I'll be released after six months in jail." The woman said, "If I fall into your hands, I don't know whether I'll be dead or alive."
Wang Xiaohai thought to himself, am I that scary?
"So you wanted to be locked up for half a year, and you didn't want to tell me your name," Wang Xiaohai said. "Do you think it's just half a year? You must have offended someone rich and powerful. Even if you're locked up, I'm sure you'll be treated poorly."
"If I tell you my name, will you let me go? In the end, I was still sent to jail!" said the woman.
"As long as you answer a few of my questions, I will let you go," said Wang Xiaohai.
"My name is Miley, and I'm 26 years old." The woman compromised because she had no bargaining power.
"Okay, Miley, can you tell me why you wanted to castrate Zhang Wenqiang?" Wang Xiaohai asked.
"Actually, I was seeking revenge for my husband," Miley said. "My husband and I got married two years ago. He opened a small shop, and I went to work. Just over a month ago, Zhang Wenqiang drove past my husband's shop, got out, bought a pack of cigarettes, and lit one on the spot. He then casually spat out the gum he was chewing, which landed on the glass cabinet. My husband saw this and said something to him, intending to wipe it off with a rag, but he was so narrow-minded that he slapped my husband down. My husband got up and started fighting with him. His younger brother in the car saw this and came over to beat my husband up. He didn't stop until he was unable to move, and then he drove away. People around him took my husband to the hospital, but they found he was too old to be saved."
"What happened next?" Wang Xiaohai made a pot of tea and sat down in front of the coffee table.
"Later, I called the police. They retrieved the surveillance footage from my shop and made me write a statement. Then they told me to go home and wait for news, saying they would definitely catch the murderer," Mai Jie said. "I waited for nearly a month, but there was no news. People nearby said the man's name was Zhang Wenqiang, and he was rich and powerful. The police were friends with him and wouldn't arrest him! I swore to avenge my husband, so I secretly inquired about his whereabouts. I learned that he often went to the Qingliu Bar at night, so I dressed up and waited at the bar every night. Last night, he showed up at the bar with two of his men. I walked up to him, pretending to be charming and smiling at him. He really fell for it, and quickly grabbed my hand, asking if I wanted to come to his house and play. I guess you know what happened next."
Wang Xiaohai thought that he should find an opportunity to replace the police chief, but even if he proposed a personnel matter, it would need to be voted on by the parliament. Although the speaker was Cheng Yan's father and had a good relationship with him, a legitimate reason was needed. Everything could only be resolved after he officially went to work at 10 o'clock!
"I understand. Has your wound healed? You can go now," said Wang Xiaohai.
"Are you really willing to let me go?" Miley was a little bit unbelieving.
"I mean what I say." Wang Xiaohai waved his hand and took a sip of tea. "Go home quickly. I guess your children are waiting anxiously."
"I don't have any kids yet," Miley said.
"You've been married for two years and still have no children?" Wang Xiaohai was a little surprised, thinking that one of them might have some unspeakable illness.
"Because we want to earn more money, buy a house first, and then have children," Miley explained.
"Is housing expensive in Qingliu City?" Wang Xiaohai recalled Fang Fang, who also rented a house before. "Your husband already owns a small shop, but he doesn't own a house?"
"The storefront of the convenience store is also rented," said Miley.
"You haven't left yet?" Fang Fang took another sip of tea.
"Well..." Miley said a little embarrassedly, "I see you live in such a luxurious house, you must be very rich. Can you lend me some money?"
"You don't know me?" Wang Xiaohai asked in surprise. He thought that all the citizens in Qingliu City knew him.
"Oh, are you famous?" Miley asked.
"It's not famous." Wang Xiaohai said, "Aren't you saving money to buy a house? How can you be broke? How much do you want to borrow?"
"There are tens of thousands, but it's not enough for the down payment on a house. The money is all in my husband's card, but the card is nowhere to be found. I guess the money and card were taken away by someone before the kind-hearted person sent him to the hospital," Miley explained.
"You can report the card lost." said Wang Xiaohai.
"But the people at Qingliu Bank said that I need to be in person to report the loss," said Miley.
"You can say that your husband has passed away, so how can we handle it?" Wang Xiaohai thought to himself that there was such a thing.
"I told the bank this, and they asked me how I could prove my husband was dead," Miley said angrily. "My husband was cremated. Could I just show him his ashes? Even if I did, they wouldn't believe me!"
"You can go to the police department to apply for a death certificate." Wang Xiaohai said.
"The problem is that the police won't do it for me. They say the criminal hasn't been caught yet and they can't do it," Miley said.
