Chapter 208: Aren't You Wrong Too? Who Told You to Leave Them Outside?

Today is a good day, very auspicious.

Zhou Yi stood before the window, quietly watching the takeout table below; he was reminded of the martial arts novels he used to read.

In those novels, some assassins would say that killing is a sacred act, and here for him, sending people inside is also a sacred act.

This will change your life from this moment on; this will make you feel the existence of the law and feel the dignity of the law.

From the initial messiness when facing Liu Xu's parents to now, Zhou Yi has already learned that with some people, you cannot reason with them.

You must sit in that chair to realize your mistakes.

"General Manager Zhou, what if she doesn't come?" Quan Longtian, standing beside him, hesitated before asking.

Zhou Yi smiled: "If she doesn't come, that's fine, just keep waiting. Once the Monitoring is installed and she still hasn't come, then call the police; a few days of Detention will do."

Stealing twice, where the amount each time does not exceed the threshold for Theft, that is at most Criminal Detention.

For minor incidents like stealing takeout, it might not be prosecuted, just a Warning.

But three times is different; Theft is unavoidable.

Because the circumstances are indeed not serious, the sentence might be light; both Control and Criminal Detention are possible.

Fixed-term Imprisonment is basically impossible.

During the time Zhou Yi has been following Fang Dazhuang, he hasn't learned much else, but he understands a little about the sentencing standards for such minor crimes.

It does indeed reach the standard for Theft, but stealing takeout, even counting all the previous ones, is not a particularly serious matter.

It is highly likely to be just Control or Criminal Detention.

But whether it is a crime or not, for those who go in daily, it is nothing, but for ordinary people, that means having a Case Record!

It just depends on how the other party chooses; if she feels she shouldn't steal anymore, then call the police for a few days of Detention.

If the other party still comes to steal and doesn't take it seriously, then only the law can educate her.

The two were chatting, and before long, many delivery riders began to deliver goods; after making their calls, they placed the takeout on the table as usual.

Zhou Yi thought for a moment and said: "By the way, I have another matter here. Look, so many people order takeout every day; leaving it here looks very messy, and there is also a possibility of it being stolen."

"We could actually set up takeout lockers in the first-floor lobby, using the same principle as parcel lockers, and put the corresponding takeout inside."

"Everyone can pick up their meals in an orderly fashion, and there's no need to worry about takeout being stolen. What do you think?"

Quan Longtian was silent for a moment; he always felt that his boss considered problems differently from other bosses.

As a boss, shouldn't you be considering how to make more money?

But since the boss asked, he certainly had to think it over carefully.

"It should be feasible, but there will be some difficulties that need to be resolved."

Zhou Yi nodded, just about to say something, when his eyes suddenly looked outside: "She's here, she's here!"

"Let's go, let's go down. Are the female Employees of the Company ready?"

Quan Longtian hurriedly nodded and said: "They have been ready for a long time."

Having learned from Fang Dazhuang for so long, Zhou Yi is now meticulous in his actions.

He knows his current status as a well-known internet celebrity; although many people don't know his appearance, he must pay attention to what he needs to!

It is known to many that Tengda Company was founded by A Yi from Bilibili.

So he must be careful; these days, there have been many, many controversies regarding issues between men and women.

One moment of carelessness and there will really be big problems. Don't look at how Zhou Yi has "hacked" it; once the controversy really starts, he will be finished. Even if he sends the other party inside, his own reputation will be ruined.

Because people just want to see you cut open your stomach; who cares how many bowls of noodles you ate.

So what Zhou Yi needs to do is not let such a controversy start.

The law stipulates that when encountering a criminal suspect in the act, one can perform a citizen's arrest and take them to the Police Station.

Of course, you have to be careful when performing the arrest...

And Zhou Yi certainly doesn't need to perform the arrest himself; he only needs to have the female Employees in the Company block the other party and not let her leave.

Of course, Zhou Yi had already said that if the other party uses force and insists on leaving, let her go; do not start a conflict.

This matter shouldn't have been done by Company Employees, so Zhou Yi's core order is: do not get hurt, absolutely must not get hurt!

If she wants to use force, let her use force; after it's over, calculate everything bit by bit.

"I'm calling the police now!"

Outside the office building, Li Hua was walking over as usual, preparing to see and pick out a takeout order to take back.

Just at this moment, her phone rang. Li Hua took out her phone to check the caller ID and immediately smiled: "Hey, what's wrong? Coming to find me? Okay, no problem, I'll order a takeout for you too."

On the other end of the phone was Li Hua's boyfriend, also a corporate slave.

After hanging up, Li Hua picked and chose, then discovered that there were several takeout orders inside that looked very expensive based on their packaging.

No need to think about it, she directly took two of these expensive takeout orders and, just like that, was about to leave.

Just at this moment, a voice suddenly rang out from the side!

"Stop!!!"

Huh? Li Hua subconsciously turned her head to look, only to find a woman in professional attire who looked very aggressive.

"Finally caught you. Stealing takeout, right? Everyone block her, don't let her run!" He Ling shouted from there.

Today, in the words of General Manager Zhou, the female Employees of the Company are the main force; women can hold up half the sky.

Under He Ling's order, the female Employees in the Company all walked up and surrounded Li Hua.

This is also because Zhou Yi now has high prestige in the Company, and everyone will help him do things.

For example, Liu Fangfang, she is now a die-hard fan of General Manager Zhou; if General Manager Zhou says to block someone, then she blocks them!

Anyway, according to Fangfang, I was a victim of Internet Violence before, I have depression, so rounding up, it's equivalent to me having a mental illness.

So it's fine, no need to be afraid!

I don't know about others, but Zhou Mouren was scared when he heard this at the time; could this child really have a problem...

Mental health issues are hard to say, especially when someone has truly been subjected to Internet Violence.

However, facts proved that Zhou Yi was overthinking it; when Li Hua saw such a large crowd suddenly surrounding her, her reaction wasn't fear, but rather a bit of self-righteousness!

"What are you all doing? What's wrong, are you trying to hit me?" Li Hua looked at He Ling in front and said.

"Who wants to hit you? Don't talk nonsense. It's being filmed over there, and we have already called the police. Just wait patiently for the police officers to arrive."

"Still calling the police? Suit yourselves, I haven't done anything."

"Haven't done anything?" He Ling looked at Li Hua's hands and said: "What is that you're holding in your hand? Did you order takeout?"

"Take a look for yourself at whose name is on it!"

Li Hua looked at the takeout in her hand, then immediately placed it on the table and said: "So what? I took the wrong one, is that not allowed?"

"It's allowed, of course it's no problem, but you should have seen that the takeout today is a bit special; the recipient's name is written on it in very large letters."

He Ling came to the table, picked up one of the takeout bags to look at it, and smiled again: "Your name is Zhou Yi?"

Not far away, the corner of Zhou Mouren's mouth twitched.

"Alright, you don't need to talk to us anymore. Whether it was taking it by mistake or stealing the takeout, you can go explain it to the police officers."

Li Hua naturally saw the huge name on the packaging bag too, but her face still held that same expression as she said: "So what if I did? It's just two takeout meals, is it worth all this?"

"Inexplicable, I'm leaving."

She wanted to leave, but was blocked by someone; the person standing in front was Liu Fangfang.

"Where do you think you're going? Better wait for the police officers to arrive before saying anything." Fangfang looked at the girl in front of her and said.

Although she couldn't understand why a girl like this would steal takeout, the things that needed to be done still had to be done.

"Are you going to move or not? I need to go back to work. Let me tell you, you are breaking the law, you know that!"

Li Hua tried to squeeze out, but was forcibly blocked by Liu Fangfang.

Once there is someone taking the lead in this kind of matter, everyone's fighting spirit becomes very strong.

Especially those whose takeout had been stolen earlier; at this moment, they were shouting non-stop.

"Don't leave. Didn't you think it was no big deal?"

"That's right, don't leave. It's just two takeout meals, but no matter how little money two takeout meals cost, we bought them ourselves!"

Liu Fangfang even said: "Don't push me. I'm telling you, I have mental health issues, you'd better be careful."

Hearing this, Li Hua instantly shut her mouth.

With no other choice, she took out her phone and called her boyfriend.

"Pan Rui, I'm at the entrance of the building next to my Company. They are blocking me and won't let me leave, come over quickly."

After hanging up the phone, not long after, a young man came jogging over, panting for breath.

"What's going on here? Huahua, what are you all doing? Move aside, all of you!" Pan Rui saw Li Hua surrounded inside and shouted hurriedly.

He tried to get in while shouting, but unfortunately, the female Employees were blocked by female Employees, and as for the men, they were naturally blocked by male Employees.

"Wait a second, brother, don't go in yet. Is this your girlfriend? She stole our takeout, we caught her red-handed, and we have already called the police."

"You'd better not get involved."

What? Pan Rui was greatly shocked. A hint of surprise appeared on his previously anxious face as he said: "She... stole your takeout?"

"How is that possible? She isn't someone who can't afford to eat. You must have made a mistake."

Although he had only been dating Li Hua for a little over half a year, he felt he understood the other party very well.

In his heart, Li Hua was the purest, cutest, and kindest treasure, and she shouldn't be associated with something like stealing at all!

"No, we did not make a mistake. We have evidence," Yuan Jianhua shouted.

"Pan Rui, are you going to believe them or me!" Li Hua said, hugging her arms.

When these words came out, Pan Rui immediately shut his mouth, grabbed Yuan Jianhua in front of him and pulled him away, then reached out to push aside the female Employee in front.

"What are you doing? I'm telling you, I've called the police!"

Under these circumstances, although everyone really wanted to stop him, because Zhou Yi had said so, they couldn't use force.

Then the two sides just kept pushing each other back and forth, and the scene suddenly became a mess.

"Stop, all of you! What are you doing? Let go, let go of everyone!" A stern voice rang out.

Zhou Yi, who had been standing to the side filming the whole time, heard this and looked over. Eh, it was actually an acquaintance again!

This police officer was the same one who came after they called the police when he and Lawyer Fang and the others were eating hotpot and that spoiled brat broke the camera lens.

It really was a coincidence; it was him again.

Wait, why does it feel like he knows so many people in the Jingzhou Legal System now? Everywhere he goes, there are acquaintances...

He immediately handed the camera to Quan Longtian, and the General Manager turned around and went upstairs as fast as he could.

Police Officer Lao Xu had a dark face, with his apprentice following behind him.

Their deterrent power was still very strong; the crowd that had been arguing in a heap scattered.

"Who called the police? What's going on?"

Zhou Mouren hurriedly ran over and smiled: "Officer Xu, I called the police. We meet again."

Meet... again?

Lao Xu looked over. His memory was very good when he was young, but it wasn't so great now; however, he still remembered this young man in front of him!

And it was truly a fresh memory!

For no other reason than that whoever calls the police, and upon hearing the police suggest taking legal action, actually brings two Lawyers along with them, will be remembered.

The scene where Zhou Yi introduced Lawyer Fang and Zhou Xinran to him back then, Lao Xu would never forget in his life...

Not to mention that after he went back and chatted with his colleagues, everyone told him the rumors they had heard; this person was a ruthless character.

"Oh, it's you. I remember your name is Zhou Yi, right? What's going on here?" Lao Xu looked at Zhou Yi and asked.

Zhou Yi pointed at Li Hua inside: "Officer, the matter is very simple. Our Company's takeout is usually placed here, on those two tables."

"Then, this young lady took advantage of the time before our Employee came down at noon to steal takeout, and we caught her."

Hearing this, Li Hua spoke up: "Who stole it? Can't I have just taken it by mistake?"

Zhou Yi ignored her completely and continued: "Comrade, our takeout here is basically only for our Company's Employee. She doesn't even know where she lives, so how could she possibly have written the address here?"

"Moreover, this isn't the first or second time she has stolen our takeout."

Not the first or second time, that means three times... Zhou Mouren has always been this direct when he speaks.

Lao Xu's brows furrowed; if she had stolen many times, that would constitute a crime.

He didn't feel much about it; having worked at the grassroots level for so many years, what kind of people hadn't he seen? He had personally arrested quite a few good-looking young women who had committed crimes.

Li Hua could no longer hold back: "Comrade Police, I didn't take their takeout. I just took it by mistake today, and as a result, they stopped me and wouldn't let me leave!"

"And they insist on saying I took it. Even if I did take it, aren't they wrong too? Who told them to put the takeout here!"

Yo-ho, this is a classic line; the classic "reflection" style has arrived.

Regardless of whether I made a mistake or not, you must be wrong too anyway.

"You wait a moment!" Lao Xu said in a deep voice: "Zhou Yi, you said she hasn't just stolen takeout once or twice; do you have evidence?"

Zhou Yi immediately smiled: "Comrade, of course I have evidence here. I specifically spent three days filming this young lady, and the evidence is very sufficient."

"And look, our Company has already issued a Warning that someone has been stealing takeout recently, but as a result, she didn't take it seriously at all."

Speaking of which, the General Manager had already come down and handed over a laptop; he had just imported the content filmed today into the laptop at the fastest speed possible.

And he had placed it together with the videos from the previous two days.

"Look, this is the evidence!"
