Rebirth: He Decides to Lie Flat
Chapter 206 - 206 203 Investigate to the End

Chapter 206: Chapter 203: Investigate to the End Chapter 206: Chapter 203: Investigate to the End “…That’s the situation. This kid snatched my brother’s wallet, and I caught her to get it back. Then two groups of people showed up to intercept us—it’s obviously a gang operation.”

Just as Jiang Yan finished speaking, the flower-selling girl brought in with them shouted loudly, “That’s not true! He gave me the wallet himself; they used it to buy flowers.”

Three grown men buying flowers?

And gave you the wallet? There’s over two thousand in there, all to buy your few wilted flowers?

Jiang Yan didn’t even need to say anything before the police officer voiced his reproach, “Shut up!”

After scolding the little girl, an older, overweight police officer said with difficulty, “Although it’s a wallet snatching, this child is not even ten years old, and those four are also under eighteen. This doesn’t constitute…”

“Doesn’t constitute what?”

Leaning back in his chair with his arms crossed, Yu Heng sneered, “Are you suggesting that because they’re young, we should let them go?”

Seeing Yu Heng’s attitude, the overweight officer immediately stiffened his face and said, “Otherwise, what do you want to do? The people have already been beaten by you, you haven’t suffered any loss, and now you want…”

“So you handle cases based on who’s weaker, not on the law!”

The overweight police officer’s heart skipped a beat at the last sentence, but before he could say anything else, Yu Heng, who was sitting across from him, had already taken out his phone and dialed a number. Then the officer heard this imposing man speak—

“Principal Huang, I’m currently at the police station on Tara Avenue. My younger brother’s wallet was stolen. I, together with a student from Beijing University, fought and got the wallet back. But we were intercepted by two groups of people. The police want to let them go because one group is under eighteen… Yes, that’s what happened. Please have Assistant Bao bring two lawyers over. They are under eighteen and working as a gang; I want to meet their guardians and pursue this to the very end!”

In a flurry of words, all the overweight police officer caught was “Beijing University.”

So, the person Yu Heng is calling “Principal Huang” is the principal of Beijing University?

Are you kidding me, invoking the principal of Beijing University over such a trivial, hardly worth mentioning incident?

The overweight officer doubted that, but before he could try to probe or make sense of it, the “victim” sitting next to him had also taken out his phone and made a call—

“Hey, senior brother, my wallet was stolen near the train station… I got it back, it was my brother and his student who helped recover it. A girl around eight or nine years old snatched it, then two groups of people came out to intercept us, very aggressively, almost scared me to death… The police are talking about letting one group go because they’re not eighteen yet… You’re coming over now? Alright, I’ll wait for you.”

Yu Feng’s senior brother, Xiang Xingyun, is the deputy dean of Furen Hospital, the leading neurosurgeon, an authority in the field of tumors, with innumerable people wanting to get surgery from him each year.

Yu Feng is Xiang Xingyun’s most valued junior brother and the successor he personally recruited. Therefore, any disturbance concerning Yu Feng is very important to him.

The overweight police officer looked at Yu Feng’s calm and undisturbed face, recalling his words, “almost scared me to death,” and the corner of his mouth twitched.

But that’s not the point. The point is, who is his senior brother?

Oh, that’s not the point either. The point is… the overweight officer slapped his forehead; he didn’t even know what the point should be anymore.

However…

He turned his head to look at the young man crouching in the corner with a dislocated arm, his brow furrowing.

Now, not only had he brought him in, but he had also gotten him hurt.

So the focus now is that we must quickly release him and those youngsters.

But before he could give the order, Yu Heng, who had finished his phone call, suddenly chuckled, “Before my lawyer arrives, if you release even one person, I’ll file a complaint against you.”

The chubby police officer: ….

He glared at Yu Heng, about to say something, when he heard him continue, “It doesn’t matter if they’re under eighteen. Didn’t I say, I want to see their guardians? Officer, you understand the meaning of guardians, right? You know what it means, don’t you? Now, you can let them call and have their parents come over.”

“Oh, and by the way, I’d like to remind you that your work has been very unsatisfactory. Up until now, you’ve only asked a few questions and haven’t even asked our names and occupations. Let me introduce myself. My surname is Yu, a professor at Beijing University, just returned from abroad not long ago, so I’m quite unimpressed with your old ways. I only know that if you break the law, you must handle matters according to the law, no matter the age!”

He paused before asking, “That’s reasonable, isn’t it, officer?”

The chubby police officer didn’t speak; his heart skipped a beat the moment he heard “Beijing University professor.” The “Principal Huang” he had called earlier, could it really be the principal of Beijing University?

The chubby police officer felt it unbelievable.

“Oh, and just a friendly reminder, I’ve already memorized your badge number. If you let any of them leave before my lawyer arrives, I will file a complaint against you. That includes the little girl; she almost bit me, so I definitely want to see her parents.”

Yu Heng and Yu Feng were very astute. From their observation of the strange behavior of the little girl at the train station to the appearance of the several teenagers, they had already pretty much understood Jiang Yan’s purpose.

When Xiaosi went missing, it was only a half-hour’s drive from the train station. The police station in Tongwu District where the courtyard was located had filed a report, and the Tianyu District police station near the train station had also filed a report.

At the time, Yu Heng was already fifteen years old and capable of taking charge. He had run to this police station several times, worried that child traffickers might take Xiaosi away by train. However, he also vividly remembered that the suspects they had identified near the train station were all released within two days.

Although the Yu Family and the Mu Family had used their connections to search the city for Xiaosi, the secretive actions of those below couldn’t be prevented.

Yu Heng noticed this, but at the time, he didn’t fully comprehend the significance, and his anxiousness for his sister caused him to overlook it, but now, thinking back…he turned his head to look at the little girl in the corner. She was curled up next to a teenager, her head resting on his shoulder, already asleep.

How long had they been in the police station for her to be able to sleep like this?

This alone indicated she was a regular here. Even if she wasn’t, it was clear she felt safe here, knowing that she wouldn’t face any serious consequences.

Besides…

If Xiaosi had not escaped from those people’s hands back then, might she have ended up like this little girl, being coached to carry out these acts at the train station?

The possibility weighed heavily on Yu Heng’s mind.

He turned his head and exchanged a glance with Yu Feng, who subtly nodded and inconspicuously sent out two messages.

Half an hour later, the people Yu Heng and Yu Feng had called over hadn’t arrived yet, but the chief of the Tianyu District police station had rushed over in a flurry.

“What’s going on? What in the world happened?”

Chief Wang had been secretly notified by an assistant to the deputy chief of the municipal police department and had come running over without even a chance to change out of his pajamas, just throwing on a coat before driving here.

Yu Heng looked at him and narrowed his eyes slightly. He had a good memory. Even though it had been over a dozen years and the officer’s physique had completely changed, he still recognized him as the officer who had been in charge of the reception and investigation of Xiaosi’s disappearance case!
