Wei Zhen threatened, "Kid, if you call the police, you can expect to go to jail."
"At least three years, and if it takes more than ten years!"
Wu An said, "You seem to know quite a bit about the law."
"In that case, you should call the police."
“Fine, I’ll report it…” Wei Zhen was stunned for a moment, then flew into a rage: “You little brat, are you kidding me?!”
Wu An shook his head: "Actually, I don't care how much money you want to settle this privately."
"Because I don't intend to compensate you a single penny."
"You only have one option left: call the police."
"Am I right?"
Wei Zhen pointed at Wu Yingwei and the others: "If you don't compensate, then I'll go after your father!"
Wu An's eyes turned cold: "My father and I have severed our father-son relationship. Everyone in the village here is a witness."
Wei Zhen scoffed, "So what?"
Wu An said, "My dad won't interfere with me. If you dare to do anything wrong, my dad will call the police. In Xiaoxi Village, I can guarantee that none of you will escape."
"You!" Wei Zhen stomped her foot in anger. How dare this brat threaten her like this?
The Chen family members gathered around.
Undeterred, Wu An shouted, "Everyone should know that I beat someone up at the docks a while ago."
"They came to our door demanding compensation."
"They lost a lot of money last time, and they're at it again this time."
“I don’t intend to pay any compensation, so let them call the police.”
"That makes sense, doesn't it?"
Everyone looked at each other, unsure whether to strike up a conversation or not. Even those who considered themselves shrewd couldn't figure out what Wu An was up to.
What benefit could Wu An possibly gain from doing this?
Is he really prepared to throw caution to the wind and rather go to jail than pay compensation?
Mao Wang excitedly shouted, "That makes sense, that makes perfect sense!"
He desperately wanted to call the police for Wei Zhen.
The desire to quickly call the police to arrest Wu An was probably even greater than Wei Zhen's.
Other villagers chimed in, saying, "That makes sense."
“Wu An, there’s no good in going to jail. When you get out, the world will have abandoned you. You might as well just pay up and be done with it.”
"You're still young, you should avoid going to jail if you can avoid it."
"Yeah, I don't think they meant to kill you."
Most people advised Wu An to calm down.
A small group of people also stirred up trouble, fearing that the world was not chaotic enough.
Wei Zhen also scolded, "Kid, don't be ungrateful. I only didn't call the police because you're young and I wanted to give you a chance..."
Wu An was no longer willing to listen to her nonsense. He had already recorded everything he needed to record and obtained all the forged documents he needed to obtain. He simply took out his phone and said, "Shut up."
"If you don't call the police, I will."
"I'm reporting myself."
After saying that, he immediately dialed the police.
When the other party received the call, they were stunned. What? This person called the police to arrest him?
This was the first time she had received such a call to turn herself in. She asked Wu An to come to the police station, but Wu An said he couldn't come because a large group of people had come and blocked him at his doorstep.
He urged that people be sent immediately, otherwise a mass incident could very likely occur.
Upon hearing this, the other party took it very seriously and immediately dispatched personnel to Xiaoxi Village.
Seeing Wu An put down his phone, Wei Zhen angrily cursed, "You little brat, you're asking for it! Fine, fine, I'll grant your wish!"
I can't get the money.
But getting Wu An into the police station was at least a way to vent my anger.
The Chen family also joined in, shouting, "You little brat, you're asking for it!"
"You're finished."
“Let me tell you, we have connections in our family, so you can expect to spend the rest of your life in jail.”
They were cursing and swearing.
They all looked unhappy.
Wu An refused to pay and insisted on going to jail. Given Wei Zhen's stingy nature, if he couldn't get the money himself, he probably wouldn't give them any kickbacks either. It would be like they made a wasted trip.
Wu An and the others were talking nonsense.
He distributed cigarettes to the surrounding villagers. Although most of them were just there to watch the excitement, it was precisely because of their presence that the Chen family dared not act recklessly. They felt it was only right for them to have a cigarette from him.
We arrived at Maowang, and the smoke had dissipated.
Mao Wanggang reached out to take the cigarette, but found nothing. Seeing Wu An's innocent look, he cursed inwardly, thinking that Wu An must have done it on purpose.
After spreading out some cigarette smoke, Wu An went back inside and moved a table, a teapot, and teacups, then leisurely began to drink tea.
Everyone watched while smoking, and they were all amazed.
Wu An remained remarkably calm.
Wei Zhen and the Chen family had been shouting and cursing for a long time, and their mouths were already dry. Watching Wu An drink tea, they swallowed hard and could only stand there and wait.
I asked someone to buy water from the convenience store, but Old Jiang's shop was closed.
The man was watching TV inside, and the Chen family saw him, but no matter how long they knocked, he wouldn't open the door.
It makes people furious, yet there's nothing they can do about it.
...
The police arrived quickly.
Two people arrived, and Shen Fang also arrived at the same time.
Two policemen walked over and asked, "Make way, who called the police?"
Wu An raised his hand, and Wei Zhen walked over first: "You've finally arrived. You have to stand up for my son. He was beaten and is still lying in the hospital."
He was crying and shouting, waving his hands up and down.
The young policeman quickly stepped forward to help her up, speaking in fluent Mandarin with concern, saying, "Auntie, please calm down."
"Explain the situation to us clearly."
"If you keep shouting like that, it's not going to be easy for us to handle."
The older policeman scanned the area and his heart sank. There were so many people; he estimated that half the village was there. If not handled properly, it could easily escalate into a violent mass incident.
Solving problems in the village requires careful consideration.
He pondered for a moment: "Who called the police?"
Wu An raised his hand: "Officer, it's me."
“I’m from the town’s police station. Here’s my identification.” The older officer showed his badge, took out his notebook, and said, “I need to ask some simple questions to understand the situation.”
Wu An glanced at the ID, and although it was just a fleeting glimpse, he could still make out that the officer's name was Liu Long. He replied, "Okay, Officer Liu."
Wei Zhen quickly shouted, "Just ask me, it was this kid who hit my son."
"That guy is a bastard."
"They still haven't admitted their mistake or apologized."
Liu Long frowned: "Ma'am, please don't interrupt my inquiry."
Wei Zhen shouted, "What kind of attitude is this?"
“I am actively cooperating with the investigation; I am a family member of the victim.”
"If you say that, I highly suspect you're the reinforcements this kid brought in."
Liu Long was speechless.
The young police officer next to her said cleanly, "Auntie, you told me that my mentor questioning the person who reported the case is a normal procedure."
Wei Zhen muttered something under her breath as the young policeman pulled her aside.
soon.
The inquiry has ended.
Liu Long and his apprentice checked the situation and were quite surprised. The person who called the police was the perpetrator, and Wei Zhen was indeed a family member of the victim. This was the first time they had ever encountered a perpetrator who had taken the initiative to call the police to arrest him.
They looked at the surrounding villagers and asked, "We'd like to know, is it true that Wu An beat up Chen Long at the dock?"
Everyone looked at Wu Yingwei.
Wu Yingwei threw his cigarette butt on the ground and said, "Say what you have to say."
Upon hearing this, everyone had no time to hesitate and started shouting all at once, with some even describing what they had witnessed in vivid detail.
Looking at the injury assessment report in his hand, Liu Long felt that the case was very simple and could basically be closed. He looked at Wu An and asked, "Do you have anything else to say?"
Wu An said, "Everyone is right, I did hit Chen Long."
Liu Long frowned; "You refuse to settle this privately?"
Wu An nodded: "No."
Liu Long shook his head. He couldn't understand it. Why did they have to make such a fuss when something that could be solved with money could be resolved like this? He thought the kid might have gone crazy.
How could someone who isn't crazy do this?
