"Hey, Chairman Qin..."
"Have you found the person?"
The head of the police station had just dialed Qin Ruojing's number when her obviously anxious voice came through.
"Uh, found him..."
"How is he? Is he seriously injured? Which hospital is he in? Does he need surgery?"
Hearing the rapid, concerned voice on the other end, the station head felt a chill. He thought he had already given proper attention to Chu Ge, but it seemed he had underestimated Chu Ge's importance to Qin Ruojing.
"Chairman Qin, um, don't worry just yet. We're currently bringing Comrade Chu Ge back to the station for a statement, he..."
Before he could finish, Qin Ruojing was already furious.
"A statement? Officer, are you mistaken? At this moment, shouldn't you send him to the hospital first no matter what? Investigating cases might be important for you officers, but isn't the safety of our Tianjiao Group employees important too? I solemnly remind you, if Chu Ge's injuries aren't treated in time, I guarantee I will file a complaint!"
While Qin Ruojing was speaking, the station head tried several times to explain, but Qin Ruojing spoke so quickly that he had no chance to interject. By the time she finished, he could only smile wryly.
"Well, Chairman Qin, rest assured, Comrade Chu Ge is perfectly fine. If we find anything wrong with him, I swear on my police badge, we will immediately send him to the hospital for a check-up."
"He's okay? Are you sure? He got rid of those more than ten thugs?"
"He..."
"Never mind, I'm going to your police station right now. I'll talk when I get there."
The station head hung up the call speechlessly. In no time, several police cars stopped in front of the Xinghe Police Station.
Upon entering the station, Chu Ge still wore a casual expression, even though he had been handcuffed by Mu Lingshan herself.
In the solemn and serious police station, Chu Ge casually glanced around and joked to Mu Lingshan, "I say, Officer Mu, you seem to always wish I'd commit some crime. Now that I'm here, how about you take my statement?"
Hearing this, Mu Lingshan couldn't help but chuckle angrily. The officers in the station exchanged strange and complex looks towards Chu Ge.
What's going on? Is this guy not right in the head? Does he think the police station is a joke? And he dares to choose which officer takes his statement?
Even more unexpected to the officers already in the station, Mu Lingshan didn't get angry. She just squinted her eyes, nodded, and said, "As you wish."
Saying that, Mu Lingshan motioned to a male officer about her age to take Chu Ge to the interrogation room on the second floor. She had wanted to deal with Chu Ge for a long time, and today she finally had the chance. Even if Chu Ge hadn't said anything, she would have done it anyway.
But... volunteering to take Chu Ge's statement was one thing, and Chu Ge asking for it was another.
The so-called interrogation room was just a small room with a long table, three chairs for officers behind it, and a chair opposite for suspects, witnesses, or victims.
Chu Ge sat confidently in the chair across from Mu Lingshan and the young male officer.
"Name!" Mu Lingshan's voice was visibly angry. Truth be told, ever since she first heard of Chu Ge, she hadn't liked him, and after meeting him, her impression worsened.
In stark contrast to Mu Lingshan's frosty demeanor, Chu Ge smiled broadly and said, "Officer, according to the rules, shouldn't you first show your badge and introduce yourself?"
Being pointed out for her professional slip-up by Chu Ge only made Mu Lingshan more frustrated.
Of course, she knew Chu Ge was right. She had to suppress her frustration and, together with her colleague, showed their badges and introduced themselves. They also handed Chu Ge a "Notice of Rights and Obligations for Administrative Cases" to review.
After finishing the first step, Chu Ge smiled, "Let's continue."
"Name!"
Mu Lingshan asked for the second time a question she already knew the answer to, yet Chu Ge still didn't give her a straight answer, much to her annoyance.
"Comrade Mu Lingshan, please mind your attitude. We're doing an inquiry statement, not an interrogation statement. I'm a law-abiding citizen, not a heavily guilty suspect. Could you please be a bit more amiable?"
Chu Ge's tone was casual, with his signature smile, while Mu Lingshan's face flushed with anger.
The male officer sitting beside her twitched at the corners of his mouth, looking at Chu Ge as though he was some kind of oddity.
In the past, most people sitting where Chu Ge was now were on edge and tense. Even the tough ones would show some sign of unease.
And what about this Chu Ge? He's just chatting and laughing, isn't he?
Not only did he make a groundbreaking visit to the police station to record notes with the police beauty, but he also dared to "flirt" with their station's police flower, Mu Lingshan, during the interrogation? Are you kidding me!
What left him speechless was that the person before him was clearly well-versed in every aspect of the interrogation, practically a cultured rogue!
"Name! This time, did I say it kindly enough?"
Gritting her teeth and summoning her energy, Mu Lingshan asked this basic question for the third time, while the male police officer next to her was at a loss whether to laugh or cry, and even somewhat admired this cultured rogue.
One has to admit that this guy is the first to make this police flower of their station so frustrated!
Chu Ge chuckled. Though he had numerous reasons to continue teasing Mu Lingshan, this time he didn't give her a hard time.
"Chu Ge."
"Gender?"
Chu Ge laughed slyly, glancing at Mu Lingshan's chest, then scratching his own flat chest, saying, "This can be seen at a glance, right?"
"Gender!" Only when Mu Lingshan asked through gritted teeth again, did Chu Ge happily reply, "Male."
However, just as he said the word "Male," the young male police officer beside Mu Lingshan's pupils suddenly contracted, showing a look of facing a formidable foe and instinctively grasping the baton at his waist tightly.
"Don't move! What do you intend to do?"
Mu Lingshan was taken aback, completely unclear about what was wrong with her colleague.
The male police officer quickly glanced at Mu Lingshan, uttered "handcuffs," and immediately focused back on Chu Ge, pointing the baton in Chu Ge's direction.
Only at this point did Mu Lingshan finally notice the problem, instantly rising from behind the interrogation table.
The handcuffs she'd put on Chu Ge herself were open? When did this happen? The key was still in her possession!
Seeing Mu Lingshan and the other police officer on high alert, Chu Ge scratched his nose and re-secured the handcuffs, "Don't be nervous, I won't move, really won't."
In fact, Chu Ge hadn't deliberately opened the cuffs; he had just subconsciously fiddled with them for a bit, and they happened to unlock easily.
Seeing Chu Ge relatively cooperative and having put on the cuffs again, Mu Lingshan and the male officer beside her finally sat back down with furrowed brows.
Looking at Chu Ge's smiling face, not only was he not nervous at all, but he even turned around to comfort them not to be nervous, leaving Mu Lingshan speechless, feeling as if Chu Ge had been sent by heaven just to play around with her.
Finally, while gritting her teeth, Mu Lingshan finished several basic questions and got to the main topic.
"Comrade Chu Ge, as you are suspected of assaulting others, under Article 82, paragraph 1 of the 'Public Security Administration Punishment Law,' you are being summoned for questioning. If you've heard clearly, please explain."
"Assaulting others? Oh no, Officer Mu, that's really not the case. Haven't you asked before? Those hoodlums got injured due to internal strife; I just happened to be passing by, just a bystander."
Slamming the report paper on the table with a "bang," Mu Lingshan stood up again in a flash.
"A bystander? How can you even say such a thing! Let me ask you again, what exactly happened?"
Seeing Mu Lingshan gritting her teeth, Chu Ge smiled again, sincerely finding the angry look of this young police flower particularly amusing and attractive.
"Officer Mu, it's just a joke, why get so mad? Alright, actually, those hoodlums wanted to gang up on me, so I performed a little self-defense."
Chu Ge finally admitted it was he who took action, as even if he didn't admit, those hoodlums would definitely tell the truth of the situation, and then the young police flower would still latch onto his issue.
"Self-defense? Chu Ge, is that what you call self-defense? They were over ten people, all with different degrees of fractures, six to seven of them still with nosebleeds that won't stop, and two are still unconscious, yet you're sitting here perfectly well, and you tell me this was self-defense?"
Upon hearing this, Chu Ge laughed again, lightly shook his head, leaned a bit forward, placing both his elbows on the table.
"Officer Mu, isn't it incorrect for you to put it that way? Should I just stand still while they gang up on me? Is there such a logic under the heavens? As an enforcer of the law, shouldn't you correct your attitude? Or do you personally have some bias against me?"
Looking at Chu Ge with that look of complete calm, Mu Lingshan, though utterly frustrated inside, was rendered speechless by him, feeling as if she had strength all over but couldn't release any of it.
Isn't it her who's supposed to record notes for Chu Ge? It's clearly Chu Ge making her life difficult!
Rogues aren't frightening; what's frightening is a cultured rogue!
