Chapter 106: 042 ordinary background, who would dare to provoke him?_1
Translator: 549690339
The people at the station stood to one side, quite accustomed to the scene.
Just because she dared to mention the name “Ren Qian”.
After the elderly lady finished speaking, the chief of police barely smiled and said to her, “The young master was frightened along with you, ma’am. Please go home and rest; leave the follow-up to us.”
The chief didn’t have the guts to keep the Chen family at the station; the two had only exchanged pleasantries in the lounge.
They hardly questioned them further about the case.
“Hmm,” Madam Li responded reservedly.
“As for this matter,” the chief respectfully saw her out, “Mr. Chen, about that…”
“Don’t worry,” Madam Li placed her grandson in the car and stood by it, stroking her own neck, and spoke with a chilly tone, “I understand your predicament. If this matter is handled well, I won’t mention it to Chen Gang.”
The chief breathed a sigh of relief.
“Thank you for your understanding, madam!”
He stood at the entrance, watching Madam Li’s car drive away.
“Chief,” a police officer said hesitantly after watching the car leave, “did they take the evidence with them?”
Once they entered the library, they had collected the evidence following procedure.
Gathering and investigating evidence.
After understanding what happened, the evidence was taken by the Li family’s kid back to their house.
Now they had directly taken the evidence away…
The officer, who had not been working long, felt it was inappropriate for the Li family to take others’ belongings like that.
“It’s just a watch,” the chief turned and walked back, the watch was the least of his concerns, “What about the information on the other two? Show it to me.”
Chen Gang was a ruthless figure in Xiangcheng, a martial artist from his youth. His exiled family regained attention from Jiangjing thanks to him.
Unapproachable and unsympathetic, if this issue wasn’t handled well and Chen Gang took notice, his good days would be over.
The officer promptly handed over the recently gathered information and the written record.
The chief skimmed through it on the way.
All information was narrated by Bai Lian, a student at Xiangcheng High School, with grandfather Ji Heng, and uncle Ji Shaojun.
A very ordinary student, from a very ordinary family.
He casually closed the notebook with his hand, recalling multiple times but unable to find a family surnamed “Ji” in Xiangcheng.
Not one of the big shots on Backter Street had the surname Ji.
Recently, the surname “Bai” had been added to Blackter Street, but that had nothing to do with Ji.
Madam Li was shrewd; she wouldn’t dare to provoke someone truly influential.
The chief and the officer walked on.
Shen Qing and Ji Shaojun, who were waiting in the lobby, hurried over to speak with the chief.
“I’m sorry,” an officer blocked them sternly, “Our chief has other matters to attend to.”
The chief wasn’t someone ordinary people could see whenever they wished; if it had not been for this matter concerning Madam Li, such a trivial issue wouldn’t have required his attention.
Watching the chief’s retreating figure, Shen Qing wondered, “What can we do now?”
She had clearly heard what Madam Li said; even seeking Ren Qian would be useless.
In Shen Qing’s knowledge, Ren Qian was the most powerful person she could think of.
“Let’s first ask Alian exactly what happened; don’t tell dad to avoid worrying him,” Ji Shaojun said calmly, instead of panicking like Shen Qing, he spoke with a composed voice.
As for going to the Ren Family, Ji Shaojun didn’t consider it for a moment.
He held his phone, deep in thought.
Shen Qing had begun like a headstrong brat, but compared to Madam Li, she was far outmatched.
The officer, witnessing Madam Li take the watch without a word from the chief, shared empathy for the weaker, and after saying that the chief couldn’t be approached, he added in a hushed tone, “Try to leverage your connections if you can; you shouldn’t let the student end up with a criminal record.”
A criminal record would complicate future civil service examinations.
“Stay with Alian,” Ji Shaojun instructed Shen Qing firmly, “I need to step out.”
Thinking he was going to seek help from the Ren family, she quickly agreed, “Okay, you go; don’t worry about her here.”
Meanwhile,
Pu Xiaohan and Yang Lin returned to school, seeking Lu Lingxi.
Most students, when faced with trouble, seek out their homeroom teacher, especially those in Class 15.
Hearing Pu Xiaohan’s clear explanation, Lu Lingxi was alarmed, “Bai Lian was pushed to hit someone?”
Her such a well-behaved, outstanding student forced to resort to violence?
“Yes,” Pu Xiaohan felt like crying, “Ms. Lu, that old lady was unreasonable, snatching things and hitting people, and she seems tough to deal with. Bai won’t get into trouble, right?”
“You two go back first,” Lu Lingxi gestured with her hand, “I’ll handle this matter.”
