"Comrade officer, are you speaking up for certain people?" the stupid guy said. "Hmph, youāre the Peopleās Police, youāre supposed to serve the people, not side with some powerful folks!"
As he said this, the stupid guyās gaze kept drifting, on and off, toward Xia Chuyi and Ou Jun.
The implication was that Ou Jun and his side were using their power to bully others.
Seeing this, not to mention their subordinates, even the people from the Police Station were speechless.
"Hey, you there, classmate, donāt just spout nonsense the moment you open your mouth!" the officer said. "Weāre just carrying out a routine inquiry, how are we āsidingā with anyone like you said?"
"Whether itās the plaintiff or the defendant, we question them the same way here!" the officer tried to explain to the stupid guy.
Who knew that when the stupid guy heard this, instead of understanding, he put on an even more ārighteousā look and said, "What is there to ask? The facts are right in front of you!"
"Look at this auntie, sheās so pitifulāwould she really lie?"
The stupid guy puffed out his chest even more and shouted, "Yeah, even if Auntie did something in the past, thatās all in the past. Auntie was able to raise this young lady here..."
The stupid guy looked at Xia Chuyi and said, "Auntie was able to raise this young lady, that clearly means sheās already turned over a new leaf."
"But this young lady, just one look and you can tell sheās rich and powerful." the stupid guy went on.
"And once a person has money and power, they turn their back on their foster motherāthatās downright morally corrupt!"
The stupid guy said with absolute certainty, "And a person like that is capable of doing anything!"
"So thereās nothing to investigate in this matter, sheās obviously the one who pushed her!" In the end, the stupid guy even directly stuck out his hand and angrily pointed at Xia Chuyi.
"Classmate, how can you say that?" Hearing the stupid guyās self-righteous words, the officer handling the case frowned.
"When we handle a case, we have to investigate carefully and collect evidence meticulously before we can reach a conclusion," the officer said. "How can we just arbitrarily judge the situation based solely on the two sidesā economic status?"
"Evidence? The eyewitnesses are me and Auntie, and the physical evidence is Auntieās clothes after she was pushed into the water. With both witness and physical evidence, Comrade Officers, what more do you need to investigate?" the stupid guy insisted.
Sometimes, itās like a scholar running into a soldier: you canāt make yourself understood even with all the reason in the world.
So after being so unreasonably pestered by the stupid guy, even the officers were a bit at a loss for words.
At this moment, Xia Chuyi finally stepped forward.
"So you being poor makes you right, and me being rich makes me guilty?" Xia Chuyi looked straight at the stupid guy and said calmly, "Just because you think my family has money and influence, I must have done something bad... Classmate, is that what you mean?"
Hearing Xia Chuyi put it that way, the stupid guy froze for a moment, then said, "The rich are heartlessāisnāt that how it is?"
He actually admitted it outright.
At that, Xia Chuyi shook her head and said, "So what you mean is, no matter what happens, as long as one side has money and power, you can directly conclude that person is guilty?"
"This..." Vaguely feeling that something was off, the stupid guy glanced at Xia Chuyi, hesitated, and didnāt answer.
"According to your logic, classmate, we might as well throw out all the nationās laws and regulations," Xia Chuyi said, sounding even calmer. "From now on, whenever something happens, weāll just rule that the rich side is at fault."
