In the interrogation room, the police officer in charge of the interrogation had a serious expression and carefully asked each person about what had happened.

"Tell me first, what exactly happened?" The policeman looked at Xu Maocai with sharp eyes.

Xu Maocai's eyes darted around, and he stammered, "I...we're just going to borrow some money from my third brother's wife."

"She wouldn't lend it, so we argued for a bit, and then it turned into a fight."

"You resort to violence after just a few words? Do you think we're three-year-olds? Explain the whole story clearly!"

The police officer raised his voice and spoke sternly.

Xu Maocai was so frightened that he trembled and had no choice but to explain the whole story in detail.

In another interrogation room, a police officer in uniform with a stern expression sat opposite Chen Dong.

He held a pen in his hand, and a thick interrogation record book was spread out in front of him.

The police officer leaned forward slightly, his eyes fixed on Chen Dong, and asked, "What method did you use to stop him?"

Chen Dong sat upright, his hands folded on his knees, his face still showing signs of lingering anger.

He took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.

He answered seriously, "Officer, I have studied freestyle fighting."

"When I arrived at the chicken farm today, I saw that my second aunt's face was covered in bruises from being bullied by Xu Maocai and his wife. I was extremely angry."

“I rushed up and used some fighting moves, my goal was to get them to stop and stop hurting my aunt.”

"I really didn't use any force. You can investigate. I absolutely had no intention of hurting anyone."

The police officer nodded slightly and quickly made a note in the logbook.

While writing, he kept asking, "What specific actions did you use? Did you cause any obvious injuries to the other person?"

Chen Dong carefully recalled the scene and described it in detail: "I first slapped Li Dongdong a few times to stop her."

"Then he used his fist to block Xu Maocai who was rushing towards him, and then used a side kick to make him take a few steps back."

"Then I gave Xu Maocai an over-the-shoulder throw, which finally calmed him down."

After a long and detailed interrogation, the police conducted in-depth investigations into the woman at the chicken farm, Chen Meiju, and Xu Maocai and his wife.

Through extensive evidence gathering, the police finally confirmed the truth of the matter.

It turns out that all of this trouble stemmed from the gambling debts incurred by Xu Maocai and his wife.

In an attempt to pay off their gambling debts, they went to Chen Meiju's chicken farm, threatening and intimidating her and demanding money from her.

After being rejected, the two not only caused a scene at the chicken farm, but also attacked Chen Dong, who came to stop them.

This is a serious violation of public security regulations, and could even be considered a crime, reaching the standard for criminal punishment.

After organizing all the evidence and statements.

A senior police officer said to Chen Dong and Chen Meiju, "Based on the information we currently have from the police,..."

"The actions of Xu Maocai and his wife have constituted a disruption of social order, and we will deal with them seriously."

"However, our Public Security Bureau does not have the power to impose criminal penalties, only the power to impose administrative penalties."

"Therefore, if Mr. Chen Dong and Ms. Chen Meiju want to pursue more serious responsibilities against the other party, you will have to file a lawsuit in court yourselves."

"Our Public Security Bureau can only impose administrative penalties on Xu Maocai and Li Dongdong. We hope you can understand and forgive us for this."

Chen Dong and Chen Meiju nodded in understanding.

Subsequently, the Public Security Bureau swiftly made a decision to punish Xu Maocai and Li Dongdong for causing a public disturbance.

A young policeman, with a serious expression, entered the interrogation room where Xu Maocai and Li Dongdong were being held.

He cleared his throat and announced loudly, "Xu Maocai, Li Dongdong."

“Your actions at Chen Dong’s chicken farm have seriously disrupted social order.”

"After research and discussion, the Public Security Bureau has decided, taking into account your financial situation."

"We have decided not to fine you, but to double your detention period and impose a ten-day administrative detention penalty."

After a pause, he continued, "If you disagree with this decision, you can file a lawsuit with the relevant authorities."

Upon hearing this, Li Dongdong immediately flew into a rage.

She suddenly stood up, waving her hands in the air and shouting, "Why!"

"We just wanted to borrow some money, how did we get detained? This is a wrongful judgment! I'm not satisfied, I'm going to sue you!"

As she spoke, she tried to rush forward and pull at the police officer.

The two policemen exchanged a glance, their eyes revealing a hint of helplessness and annoyance.

One of the police officers turned around and turned off the surveillance camera in the interrogation room.

Another policeman took out a rubber baton from his waist and said coldly, "Since you're so dishonest, let's teach you a lesson."

After saying that, the two of them started beating Li Dongdong.

Li Dongdong was beaten so badly that she rolled on the ground, howling in pain.

"Ah! Stop hitting me! I won't do it again! I won't do it again!"

The two police officers then stopped, pointed their rubber batons at Li Dongdong, and sternly warned, "You better obey the detention and administrative penalty."

"If you dare to cause trouble again, you'll be in big trouble. You'll regret it!"

Rubber rollers don't leave marks when you hit someone with them.

This kind of behavior is also an unspoken rule of public security bureaus in this era.

Meanwhile, in another interrogation room.

The police officer said sternly to Xu Xiucai, "As Chen Meiju's husband, you not only failed to protect your wife when she was being bullied, but you also stood by and did nothing."

"You also bear responsibility for what happened today. If something similar happens again in the future, you will also have to bear the corresponding consequences."

Xu Xiucai lowered his head, his face full of shame, and said softly, "I know I was wrong, and I won't do it again."

Seeing his sincere attitude, the police gave him a verbal reprimand and released him.

Meanwhile, the police officer in charge of Chen Dong and Chen Meiju said to them in a gentle manner, "You can leave now."

"Xu Maocai and Li Dongdong were punished with ten days of administrative detention for disturbing public order."

"I hope this incident has given you a fright, and that you won't take it too hard."

"If you have any further questions, please feel free to contact us."

Chen Dong and Chen Meiju thanked the police gratefully and left the police station.

The winter sun shone on them, and this farce caused by borrowing money finally came to an end with the help of the police.

He slowly walked out of the imposing and heavy-looking gate of the Public Security Bureau.

The biting winter wind, like a sharp blade, came crashing down on me without mercy.

It pierced through Chen Dong's layers of clothing in an instant.

Chen Dong subconsciously wrapped his coat tighter around himself.

He slowly turned his head to look at his second aunt, Chen Meiju, beside him. The moment his gaze fell on her, Chen Dong's heart ached.
