The Brilliant Life of a Post-Apocalyptic Female Boss Reborn at 70

Chapter 38 Dispute at the Public Security Bureau

Xin Yi had never been to the town's police station before, so she didn't know how to get there. In the end, the thief led her to the police station.

However, on the way there, the thief tried to escape twice, but failed each time, and of course, he was beaten twice in the process.

As soon as the two entered the police station, the thief immediately fell to the ground, bursting into tears.

"Help! A shrew is bullying innocent civilians!"

A shout drew everyone's attention.

Some arrogant people, upon seeing the thief with a bruised and swollen face, immediately said to the police officer next to them, "Go and see! A perfectly normal man has been beaten up like this. Is there no law left?"

There were also those who were clear-headed, who, upon seeing the delicate Xin Yi, accused her of bullying others, and looked completely incredulous.

Seeing the people around him pointing and whispering, the thief realized that he might be able to turn the tide. As he wiped away his tears, he glared fiercely at Xin Yi.

Xin Yi naturally saw the thief's actions, but she believed that it was impossible for white to turn into black.

Perhaps because they were both men, a male police officer ran over and helped the thief up.

"Brother, get up! Now that you're here, no one will dare to bully you. Even if you're a couple, you have to be reasonable and abide by the law!"

The thief, holding onto the male police officer's arm, pretended to stand up, but accidentally caught a glimpse of Xin Yi's expression, shuddered, and sat back down on the ground.

Looking at this self-righteous male police officer, Xin Yi didn't want to pay any attention to him and was just waiting for a police officer who could distinguish right from wrong to handle the situation.

This led to a comical scene where the two men were blaming each other.

"Such a big police station, and there's only one male officer? Send someone who can actually breathe!"

Xin Yi's words were incredibly audacious; she dared to cause trouble at the police station, and everyone around her, including the thief, looked at her with schadenfreude.

"Excuse me, ma'am, what can I do for you?"

Xin Yi looked at the newcomer; he seemed fairly decent-looking. "I went to buy a newspaper today, and this thief stole my small suitcase while I was paying. I beat him up and took him to the police station. I thought they would stand up for me, but I didn't expect..."

Upon hearing this, everyone began to doubt their own judgment.

The male police officer who was supporting the thief unconsciously let go of his hand. If what the other party said was true, then he was indeed unable to distinguish right from wrong.

The thief plopped down on the ground again, protesting, "Don't believe her, everyone! She's my childhood sweetheart. She's always bullied me since we were little. Recently, she's fallen for a big shot in the county and wants to dump me. I refused, so she's using this to smear me and threaten me. I have an eighty-year-old mother at home! I'm scared! Waaah..."

A grown man wouldn't cry and whine in public unless he was driven to desperation. Seeing his bruised and swollen face only made it more believable.

"Marriage is a matter of mutual consent, ladies, please don't hurt other people!"

"Yeah, look at him, such a grown man, being driven to this state by you, how can you bear it?"

"After all, we grew up together. Even without romantic love, there's still friendship!"

......

"Shut up! You don't believe everything people say. Do you even have brains? Just look at our appearances and clothes, do you think I would be childhood sweethearts with him?"

Ignoring the reactions of the onlookers, Xin Yi grabbed the thief sitting on the ground and lifted him up.

"Let me introduce myself to everyone: my name and hometown!"

The thief glanced longingly at the male police officer beside him, and Xin Yi shrugged, "Speak!"

"Waaah... I... my name is Xu Chang, I'm a local..."

Xin Yi interrupted Xu Chang with another big gesture.

"I don't know if you guys have noticed, but the accents of people from Xuchang are from Heicheng, while my accent is from Chongqing!"

"It's normal for you to speak the Chongqing dialect since you spent a few years in Chongqing!"

Still holding a large bag, Xu Chang could only cover his mouth, his eyes filled with helpless sobs.

This gruesome scene caused the onlookers to instinctively touch their faces, afraid to speak freely.

Xin Yi took out her letter of introduction and handed it to the male police officer who came after her. "Officer, you should be able to recognize me after reading my letter of introduction. As for Xu Chang stealing my box, I was buying newspapers at a stall not far from the supply and marketing cooperative. I made an appointment with the owner to pick it up later. Why don't we go over there now and find out who is lying!"

The male police officer took the letter of introduction, glanced at it, and already had his own judgment. "Comrade Xin, my name is Lin Ze. On behalf of Heicheng, I thank you for coming to support the construction. I will definitely give you justice!"

He then took out handcuffs and cuffed Xu Chang's hands behind his back. "Let's go, let's find out the truth!"

"Lin Ze, isn't this a bit inappropriate to say this before the verdict has even been handed down?"

Lin Ze glanced at the other party with disdain. "Xuzhou, this isn't how you run the police. We value evidence, not who you believe or who you sympathize with. Based on the current evidence, this woman is the victim, unless Comrade Xu can provide other evidence!"

Xu Zhou looked at Xu Chang with suspicion. "What do you have to say? Or are you going to find someone to prove your innocence now?"

Xu Chang felt that everyone's eyes were on him. Perhaps he felt guilty, or perhaps he was under pressure, he finally admitted his identity.

The room erupted in commotion; it turned out they had almost wronged the woman.

Some people apologized to Xin Yi directly, while others refused to admit their mistakes.

"Even if it's a thief, there's no need to beat someone up so badly, especially since they didn't lose anything, right?"

He spoke in a low voice, but everyone could hear him clearly.

Xin Yi raised an eyebrow. "You mean an attempted crime doesn't count as a crime? Then I wish everyone in your family would run into thieves when they go out, but whether they can get their things back is up to their own skills!"

"How...how could you curse my family?"

"You know this isn't a good thing, so please shut your stinking mouth and don't force me to take action!"

Lin Ze cleared his throat. "Ahem, Comrade Xin, I'll lock Xu Chang up first. Please go with Xu Zhou to give your statement. We'll also investigate based on your description later, and we'll definitely give you justice!"

"Thank you, Officer Lin!"

Xu Zhou knew he had done something wrong, but he didn't want to admit it, so he said indifferently, "Come with me!"

Xin Yi didn't want to give the other party a friendly look at all, handling the whole process strictly by business, and left directly afterward.

No sooner had Xin Yi left than the police chief led a man in military uniform down from the second floor.

"Comrade Feng, we will definitely cooperate fully with you in this matter!"

"Thank you, Director Ning!"

At the entrance of the Public Security Bureau, the two shook hands amicably, and Feng Yi got into a Jeep and drove away.
