Chapter 914: Chapter 904: Return to the Police Station

This matter is indeed not as simple as imagined, nor is it just an accident.

According to Deng Jie, last night they went to attend a dinner party, negotiating a business cooperation with the head of a company. If they secured this project, it would at least stabilize the Jiangcheng Branch.

However, the head was changed last minute to a young man in his twenties. As a result, barely any project negotiation took place because the young man took interest in Shen Yi, speaking lewdly and persistently urging Shen Yi to drink with him.

As a seasoned career woman, Shen Yi was no stranger to such men and didn’t even take it to heart.

Such people, once the project is finalized, may not be seen again. The worst outcome would be both parties unsatisfied.

If they can’t negotiate, then they can’t negotiate. They were not relying on this one project for survival.

So, there was no displeasure shown until the young man tried to put his arms around Shen Yi’s waist. Shen Yi decisively avoided him and slapped him back, splashing water on his face.

At that time, the atmosphere in the private room dropped to freezing point.

The man seemed to have never been insulted like that before and cursed some unpleasant words, resulting naturally in an unsatisfactory parting. Shen Yi even intended to halt the cooperation.

However, unexpectedly, while they were driving back, a car suddenly sped up from the side, crashing into them directly and flipping their car over. Due to the seatbelt, Deng Jie did not pass out and clearly saw the man from the dinner party step out of his car, smash theirs a few times, cursing harshly, before driving away.

Simply put, it’s a rich heir seeing a beauty and trying to flirt, but getting enraged when rebuffed.

Very simple, yet very reasonable.

Because Shen Yi is indeed beautiful, and secondly, the person wasn’t the original head but the son of the company’s boss. While most heirs of wealth have good manners and upbringing, there are certainly some spoiled and arrogant ones.

"Rich heir? That shouldn’t make you so afraid, right?" After hearing Deng Jie’s account, Su Qing frowned slightly and questioned.

In the eyes of ordinary people, the wealthy are seen as untouchable, but Shen Yi and he are not ordinary people; surely having a bit of wealth themselves, they wouldn’t just back down due to a rich heir. Plus, even though Su Qing didn’t know the exact amount of Shen Yi’s wealth, he knew it was significant.

"President Su, previously President Shen investigated the background of the other party; they come from a family combining connections in business and government in Jiang City.

"The man is involved in business, the woman in governance, and the level is not low. Money doesn’t scare us, but if..."

Deng Jie didn’t finish, but Su Qing instantly understood. The adage of civilians not defying officials is true; if this is the case, it indeed becomes troublesome.

But no matter what, regardless of who the other party is, this matter cannot just end like this. If he were an ordinary person, there’d be no way to retaliate; fortunately he is not a nobody, and he actually holds some leverage.

"I understand. Send me the information you know to my phone. I’m going to the police station!" Su Qing stated.

Hearing this, Deng Jie nodded, and then Su Qing left the hospital, heading straight to the public security bureau.

As a man, if his wife was bullied outside and he acted like a coward in the back, he could never respect himself in this lifetime.

East City Public Security Bureau, upstairs, Old Zhao’s office, Su Qing sat on the chair smoking.

Since resigning, it’s been months since he last came here. After handling a case involving an elementary school friend last time, he suddenly didn’t want to work in this field anymore—it was too oppressive.

This society appears peaceful, but in truth, there’re too many rotten situations; sometimes even the law cannot intervene, which is quite unsettling.

"Xiao Su, don’t sulk. Rest assured, we’re already helping to investigate!" Lin Chengcai said with a smile from the side.

Upon hearing this, Su Qing nodded: "Uncle Lin, with this kind of matter, what would be the proper legal responsibility assuming the truth?"

Hearing this, Lin Chengcai pondered for a moment before saying: "If it’s really as you described, with the other party ramming the car out of rage, this already involves criminal law and will lead to a sentence; as for what the penalty would be, that’s up to the court.

But these cases vary widely, lighter cases without causing any casualties might be considered as intentional damage to property, while cases with casualties, particularly egregious ones, could have death penalty examples.

In your case, it depends on the evidence you’ve gathered. If you have proof it was intentional and resulted in the current outcome, it’ll be at least three years of imprisonment; if not, it’s much lighter."

Hearing this, Su Qing suddenly had a bad feeling.

Just then, Zhao Minghui walked in and said, "We found out, the Chengyang Street Police Station indeed received a report call yesterday and did respond."

"And then, did you catch the person?" Su Qing stood up and asked.

Hearing this, Zhao Minghui remained silent.

Seeing this, Su Qing laughed coldly and sat back down: "I see!"

"How come, Old Zhao?" Lin Chengcai asked.

Upon hearing, Zhao Minghui answered: "I asked a question to the head of the station there, and he said someone pleaded for leniency."

Upon hearing this, Lin Chengcai indignantly said: "There should at least be an explanation, Old Zhao, just tell me, can we handle this matter?"

"We could bring the person in for questioning first; there should at least be some accountability," Zhao Minghui didn’t firmly say he could handle it, but bringing someone in for questioning is certainly possible.

After all, since the incident has occurred, someone has to bear the responsibility, whether criminal or civil.

Plus, as the chief of the investigative team at Jiang City’s Public Security Bureau, his rank is quite high; ordinary people really can’t hold him down.

"Alright, then let’s question them, bring them here, I’ll lead the team myself!" Lin Chengcai said.

After speaking, he stood up directly; regarding evidence, there’s surveillance footage—they can’t escape.

"Thank you, Uncle Lin!" Su Qing stood up and expressed his gratitude.

Though he no longer works at the police station now, at least he knows some people, which counts as having some connections.

Needless to say, the police station that received the report hasn’t caught anyone after a night, which itself indicates some issues.

If he didn’t have contacts here, this situation might be very difficult to advance.

At this time, although Lin Chengcai and Zhao Minghui knew the opponent’s background was not simple, they still stood out to help him, which, to be honest, was already quite challenging.

Meanwhile, in a villa in Jiang City’s suburbs, a middle-aged man slapped his son across the face harshly:

"Who told you to replace the project head privately yesterday? Do you know, not only did you screw up the project, but damn it, you also caused trouble for me! You’ve really learned a skill now, daring to ram someone’s car and then flee." The man cursed loudly.

And the young man who had been slapped retorted with dissatisfaction:

"Dad, you don’t know, that damn woman dared to splash me with water! Out doing business, what’s she pretending for."

"You... Look at this, look at what a good son you’ve raised! What’s he become now!" The middle-aged man shouted towards the woman sitting on the sofa.

"Why shout, is it my fault training him this way? It’s no big deal; I’ve already instructed him to go stay in the countryside for a few days. We’ll deal with it after this incident passes! I’ll take care of the rest!" The woman spoke.

In response, the middle-aged man looked at the mother and son, too angry to say anything.
