Chapter 532: Actually, It's Not Made Up (Making Up for a Missed Update)

The veteran police officer looked at Zheng Chuan, then tapped the Law Enforcement Recorder on his chest and said, "We are performing official duties, and this is all being recorded. I know you are anxious, but being anxious is useless."

He was considering that the other party was getting married today, so his tone was not that direct.

However, there are some people who, when you are polite to them, will instead climb up the pole and go from bad to worse.

At the very least, Zheng Chuan was already losing his head at this moment.

"No, it must be clarified today. They are people I invited to help, so I must be responsible for them. Now you are taking people away for no reason, I must intervene!"

Watching Zheng Chuan bickering and pulling at the police there, Zheng Chuan's father was almost stunned!

Although he knew his son could be a bit muddle-headed at times, you have to consider the situation.

Acting like a hooligan in front of the police, and doing it while they have already stated they are in the process of law enforcement—who do you think your father is!

He hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Comrade, comrade, well, my son really doesn't know any better. Zheng Chuan, let go, what are you doing!"

However, at this moment, Zheng Chuan could not listen to his father's words at all.

He just felt that today's events had caused him to lose all his face.

Face is really a strange thing; sometimes it is seen as more important than anything else, and for the sake of face, one can do many inexplicable things.

"I have to intervene. They are all my brothers. I asked them to come and help, and everything they did was at my request. It's just a bit of a ruckus, so what!"

Zhou Yi and Zhou Xinran were already a bit excited watching the spectacle. To be honest, Zhou Yi had realized by now that he hadn't handled this matter well.

But it didn't matter; if he didn't call the police immediately upon encountering such things, he would always feel uncomfortable.

Having confronted so many large Companies and sent so many people inside, isn't it just to keep his mind clear? If he considered this and that whenever he encountered an issue, then he wouldn't be Zhou Yi, and he would develop the thought that "it's not worth being serious about."

It's just that he didn't expect this groom to seem a bit awesome!

Zhou Xinran was already a bit speechless and said: "He actually said it was all at his request? Does he really not know the meaning of this sentence in law?"

Sure enough, the veteran police officer's already serious face turned even darker. He turned his head to look at Zheng Chuan and asked word by word: "Are you sure these were all done at your request?"

"Yes, it was all at my request. So what, is there a problem? Are you trying to arrest me too? I just don't believe that one can't even reason now!"

Hearing this, and seeing the other party's hand constantly tugging at him, the veteran police officer did not hesitate at all and performed a grappling move with a backhand!

Don't look at his age; that movement was extremely fast. Zheng Chuan, a strong and sturdy young man, didn't even react before his hands were twisted behind his back.

Another police officer nearby had already taken out the Silver Bracelets, but did not put them on him.

Under normal circumstances, this item is used for deterrence, and unless necessary, the Public Security Bureau will not use police equipment.

"Then you should come back with us to accept an investigation as well!"

After doing this, the veteran police officer finally said.

The change in the situation was too fast, so fast that everyone present hadn't reacted.

Arguing, physical confrontation, arrest—this series of changes left people unable to react.

Zhou Lingling and her parents were stunned. The wedding banquet wine hadn't even been poured yet, and the groom was about to be taken away?

Yuan Xiangnan and the other brothers' eyes changed as they looked at Zheng Chuan; this brother is reliable!

It was Zheng Chuan's mother who got anxious and hurriedly shouted to her husband beside her: "What's wrong with you, say something! Our son is about to be taken away, and this wedding still needs to continue!"

Zheng Chuan's father could only continue: "Comrade, my son definitely doesn't know anything. Look, he still has a wedding to hold..."

The veteran police officer didn't answer, but just said to the colleagues beside him: "Take them all."

Since the other party had said so, whether it was true or false, they had to be taken back for investigation; that was certain!

At a crime scene, if someone suddenly runs out and says I am the murderer, or that I taught the murderer how to commit the crime, guess what the police would think.

Seeing this scene, Zheng Chuan's father immediately shut his mouth. Beside him, Zhou Lingling started crying again. She felt that everyone was targeting her; why would she encounter so many things while getting married.

Nearby, several bridesmaids looked at each other with inexplicable expressions.

Zheng Chuan's mother started crying and cursing, but she finally had some sense and didn't continue to go up and tangle with the police.

"That person is named Zhou Yi, right? Call him and ask what exactly he wants to do. Is he determined to go against our family?"

Zhou Yi's uncle had a massive headache, but there was no other way at this moment; he could only call Zhou Yi.

Zhou Mouren had of course already left the hotel by now. A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. Watching the spectacle is one thing, and being serious is another, but he certainly wouldn't go looking for trouble.

The phone rang; it was his uncle's call, so he had to answer it.

However, as soon as the call connected, he heard a female voice roaring: "Are you Zhou Yi? What exactly is wrong with you? What grudge do you have against our family? Just because of such a small matter, you go and call the police. I'm telling you, my son has also been taken away. If anything happens to him, my family won't be finished with you!"

Zheng Chuan's mother cursed fiercely on the phone, and then, Zhou Yi finally spoke: "Oh, got it."

After saying that, he hung up the phone directly.

Beside him, Zhou Xinran had listened to the whole thing, and now her eyes looked a bit strange as she looked at Zhou Yi: "Zhou Yi, I really feel like you have a problem. Otherwise, why do you always encounter such people?"

This was impossible to explain, so Zhou Yi could only shrug to indicate that he didn't know either.

But he immediately said: "Let's go back to Jingzhou tomorrow. I'll have my parents go too. It's better to be careful in this situation."

Reality is just like this; if you are serious, you naturally have to accept the problems brought about by being serious.

Zhou Yi is not afraid, but his parents are different.

There were still many things to do back home; Han Guoxing's case hadn't been sentenced yet, and the video hadn't been released either.

In the wedding banquet hall, Zheng Chuan's mother was also at a loss listening to the busy tone on her phone. No matter how fiercely she cursed, the problem couldn't be solved.

Zheng Chuan's father, however, began preparing to find people to ask about the situation, and of course, he had to notify the families of his son's friends.

After all, they were arrested on his side...

Getting married, and the groom is gone; the wedding naturally couldn't continue, and they could only temporarily notify the guests to end it hastily.

The emcee on stage was already dumbfounded; the ceremony had even been rehearsed.

He had only heard from peers before that there had been many outrageous things at wedding scenes, such as the groom playing a video of the bride cheating on the big screen...

But he had never encountered it himself. With this experience, he would have something to talk about in the future.

This world is just like this; you might think you are living a miserable and pitiful life, but no matter what, it's just something for others to talk about.

Yuan Xiangnan and the four others, plus Zheng Chuan, were all taken to the station. At this time, the families definitely had to be notified.

When the parents of the four groomsmen received the call from the Police Station, they couldn't process it at all; hadn't their sons gone to help out at a friend's wedding? How did they end up inside just by helping out!

They were so happy while groping this morning, but now they are crying so miserably while sitting on the Regret Chair.

Or rather, before the police officers had even asked much, they had already spilled everything like beans pouring out of a bamboo tube.

The most critical point is that Yuan Xiangnan said Zheng Chuan had told him that the little girl named Zhou Min was very young...

What is a critical issue? This is a critical issue.

Some minors have looks and dress that are no different from adults, so some people will say they didn't know the other party was a minor.

This is a very powerful defense in some rape cases.

It's not like one has to check an ID card, right?

But this group of people had no experience; Zhou Yi mentioned in his statement that he told Zheng Chuan that Zhou Min was very young...

Plus, Zheng Chuan also admitted that Zhou Yi had said this, so doesn't that link the evidence together?

One can only say that this thing called the Regret Chair is truly powerful!

It was already evening, and several families began to get anxious; naturally, many people came to Zhou Yi's home.

Zheng Chuan's parents, the parents of the four groomsmen, and his uncle's family.

And they all started yelling and screaming as soon as they entered the door.

"You are Zhou Yi? You won't hear the end of this if you don't make things clear today. How did our family offend you, huh, to make you harm people like this?"

Zheng Chuan's mother's voice was incredibly high-pitched.

Mother Zhou stepped forward and said with a smile, "Well, let's talk slowly, shall we? Let's not argue; arguing won't solve the problem, right?"

"You still know it won't solve the problem? You ask your son what he's done. Just because of such a trivial matter, he went to call the police. Now even my son has been taken away. Tell me, what should be done about this!"

Zhou Yi was on the phone; hearing this, he hung up, stepped forward, and looked at Zheng Chuan's mother, saying, "What are you yelling about? Why are you yelling at my mom? And 'make it clear'—make what clear? That your son's friends committed Obscenity against my sister in front of so many people? And were preparing to commit Obscenity against my friend?"

"Was it me who had your son taken away? I give you a Warning: yell at my mom one more time, and I swear I'll risk my life with you right now. And all of you, get out now—this is my home!"

As Zhou Yi spoke in front, Zhou Xinran had already naturally started filming behind him.

Zhou Yi felt that he had indeed done something wrong this time, but not because he was being too serious, but because his being serious had brought trouble to his parents.

"Damn it, I talked until my mouth was dry telling your son to tell those friends of his to be careful and not to mess around. What, just because it's a wedding and they want to be lively, they can grope people? Tomorrow, will they be able to just go straight to rape?"

Behind them, Zhou Xinran was nodding along. Under the guidance of Lawyer Fang, Zhou Yi had made great progress in terms of rhetoric.

In a private residence, when others trespass, you must tell the other party extremely clearly: please leave.

This is the most effective way when expressed clearly and explicitly.

Zhou Yi mixed this sentence into the argument; these people certainly wouldn't leave, and instead, they would argue even more intensely.

Things went as Zhou Xinran had expected; after Zheng Chuan's mother was stunned for a moment, she yelled with an even sharper voice, "You're telling me to get out? And risking your life? I'm telling you, if anything happens to my child, your whole family can just wait to die!"

"Do you believe I can buy your family's lives just by spending a little money!"

Seeing this, Zhou Yi's uncle's family didn't know what to do. One side was family, and the other side was also family. They thought about stepping in to smooth things over, but they also felt that the Zhou Yi family was being a bit too much.

Zhou Yi was about to say something else, but Father Zhou came directly in front of him, shielding the three of them behind him, and he was already holding a stool, though no one knew when he had picked it up.

At this moment, Father Zhou looked calm as he looked at the woman in front of him and said, "Who are you going to kill? Come on, say it again!"

No one spoke. Even Zhou Yi had never seen Father Zhou like this, let alone the others.

Seeing this, Zheng Chuan's father hurriedly came up to pull his wife away, and then said, "Well, Lao Zhou, there's no need for this. My wife is just heartbroken for her son..."

"Your wife is heartbroken for her son, but doesn't Jianping feel heartbroken for his daughter? Do you still think that my son was wrong to call the police?"

"Jianping is already on his way. You can go and reason with him slowly. See if he will reason with you."

"You heard my son's words just now. This is my home. You leave now, and by the way, my family has already called the police!"

As his voice fell, Zheng Chuan's parents and the families of the four groomsmen looked at each other in dismay. They certainly wouldn't leave, but they didn't know what to do in this situation...

Zhou Yi's uncle's family already had bitter smiles on their faces and walked out.

A groomsman's family member also felt that Zheng Chuan's mother was a bit crazy and said, "Mr. Zhou, look at this... our child didn't do it on purpose. Maybe it was an accidental touch. They are all young, just playing around..."

Father Zhou shook his head and said, "You don't need to tell me this. Save it for my relative. Now you all leave quickly; our family doesn't welcome you."

Some of the groomsmen's families also felt uncomfortable, believing they had come sincerely to discuss and solve the problem.

But seeing the attitude of this family, it didn't look like they wanted to solve the problem at all, so they started arguing again.

Just at this moment, a few more people appeared at the door of the Zhou house.

Zhou Jianping and his wife, as well as Zhou Jianping's brother-in-law and a few friends.

"Second Brother, is everything okay here? I've caused you trouble," Zhou Jianping said as he came over and looked at Father Zhou.

After finishing, he turned to look at the group of people opposite and said, "You two are Zheng Chuan's parents, right? And behind them, are these the parents of those animals? You still have the nerve to come and trouble Xiao Yi?"

"Why can't we? What, it was just a touch, does he have to call the police? It wasn't touching him, it's none of his business. A dog catching a mouse, meddling in other people's business!" said Zheng Chuan's mother.

Yuan Xiangnan's father also yelled, "Who are you talking about? Who is an animal? Say that again!"

However, after saying this, everyone present saw that Zhou Jianping's state was wrong; his eyes were bloodshot, staring fixedly at Zheng Chuan's mother.

"Just a touch? F***, my daughter is only fourteen! I'll kill you right now!"

While shouting, he pulled a kitchen knife from his clothes and swung it around, ready to hack at them!

Anyone could see that Zhou Jianping wasn't bluffing; he was truly going for the kill!

Beside him, Zhou Jianping's brother-in-law and wife held him back tightly, while opposite, Zheng Chuan's parents hurriedly hid behind.

At this moment, there was no more of that arrogance like "I'm going to kill your whole family." Talk is cheap, but when they really met someone ruthless, they cowered faster than anything.

Just at this moment, the police arrived.

Zheng Chuan's mother hurriedly went up and said, "Officer, Officer, please do something! He just tried to hack us with a kitchen knife!"

The local police officer, Lao Xiao, hurriedly looked over; sure enough, Zhou Jianping had a kitchen knife in his hand.

Zhou Yi hurriedly stepped forward to explain, gave a rough account of the cause and effect, and incidentally let them see the video from just before. The police nodded and looked at Zhou Jianping, saying, "Put the knife down first."

Seeing the police, Zhou Jianping finally calmed down and hurriedly threw the knife aside.

Over there, Zheng Chuan's mother was still incessantly saying that Zhou Jianping wanted to kill someone and so on, tears falling everywhere.

Seeing that the danger had passed, Lao Xiao then said, "Alright, you stop talking too; he didn't manage to hack you either."

Generally speaking, we don't have attempted cases for Intentional Injury; it's very simple, if it doesn't reach the standard of Slight Injury, it won't be a Case Filing, let alone the fact that he didn't even touch you at all.

Even if there really is a pile of evidence proving that this person had the intent to injure, it would still not be considered a crime because the "circumstances are significantly minor and the harm is not great."

So under normal circumstances, the police won't get involved either, unless the victim strongly demands an investigation.

Then an investigation is no problem, if you call the police they definitely have to handle it, it's just that they will give you a Notice of Non-filing.

"It's fine just because he didn't hack me? If I hadn't dodged fast just now, my life would have been gone!" Zheng Chuan's mother shouted.

"Alright, we will take him back for investigation, but, you all came to someone else's home in such large numbers, and they asked you to leave in every way, yet you didn't leave!"

"So everyone stop talking, listen to me, otherwise you're all coming back with us!"

Grassroots work is all about the same; this kind of quarrel where no real problem occurred is generally handled through Mediation, even if both sides curse that I want to kill you, as long as it didn't happen, then it's definitely Mediation.

"You people, leave someone else's house first, do you hear me?"

A few of the groomsmen's family members retreated outside; of course, there was still one father, namely Yuan Xiangnan's father, who still didn't go out, as he felt they should reason things out properly.

"Comrade, we didn't do anything coming to his house, right? He keeps telling us to get lost, so we just get lost because he says so? Is there any reason in this?"

"Exactly!" Zheng Chuan's mother also said: "You police also have to be reasonable, on what grounds? We aren't stealing or robbing, can't we even reason with him?"

"Take us back then, we didn't break the law!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yi looked at Lao Xiao in front of him and spread his hands, saying, "Comrade, you see, our family has already urged them to leave no less than several times, yet they just won't leave, and even threatened to spend money to kill our family. You tell me, what should be done about this?"

Lao Xiao also shook his head, then sighed and said, "Since it can't be talked through, then everyone go to the Police Station."

Calling for backup on the phone was mainly to get police cars to take this whole group of people back.

Zhou Yi stepped forward and looked at his parents, saying, "Dad, Mom, today's matter..."

Zhou's father smiled upon hearing this and said, "What about this matter? I am your father; my son caused trouble, and I, as his father, am helping out—isn't that only right and proper?"

"What's wrong? Do you think you've grown up and don't need your father's help anymore? In the past, whenever you fought with others, wasn't it always your mother and I who brought gifts to apologize to them?"

"You want to film videos, you want to be serious—your mother and I understand all of that, so our family doesn't need to say anything else. What is this little matter? Do you know how many people I've seen throwing tantrums, son?"

"It would be real if you brought a girlfriend home for me sooner."

Good grief, whatever is said ends up evolving into pressuring for marriage.

Zhou Xinran was already trembling with laughter in the back...

The group got into the police cars to head back. Although his father said this matter was nothing, Zhou Yi pondered that he still needed to buy a new house for his parents to live in.

This matter was put on the agenda; Zhou Yi prepared to let an agent in Lincheng keep an eye out for it after he was done.

Very quickly, the group arrived at the Police Station.

Because it was the same Police Station as before, Zheng Chuan's parents and the other groomsmen's family members learned the situation from the police's mouths at this moment.

"Yes, the coercive measures have been changed; now all of them have been placed under Criminal Detention and are awaiting investigation."

"This isn't just a matter of touching; there were four bridesmaids, one of whom was even a minor. So many people together committing Forced Indecency, and it was in front of everyone—this situation is very serious!"

Hearing this, a few of the groomsmen's family members asked something, but the police officer directly refused and told them to find a Lawyer.

"That's finished, let's talk about today's matter..."

Lao Xiao had just said this when Zheng Chuan's mother hurriedly said, "That, Comrade, we, we accept Mediation, how about we just let it go."

However, Lao Xiao said with a serious face, "You say it must be investigated, so it must be investigated; you say Mediation, so it's Mediation—what do you think the Public Security Bureau is!"

Before, he had said a whole basket of nice words, but these people just wouldn't agree; now that they know it won't work, well, sorry, it's too late.

Zhou Yi's family called the police, saying that someone had committed Illegal Trespass, and that they had urged them to leave but they wouldn't.

That alone would have been one thing, but Lao Xiao went and told them to leave first, yet they still didn't leave—this nature is very serious!

In itself, the crime of Illegal Trespass, theoretically speaking, if you enter someone else's house without permission and they tell you to leave but you don't, it already constitutes a crime.

Of course, that's only in theory; in practice, it is definitely Mediation-focused, and it is rare to directly pursue the crime of Illegal Trespass.

However, the police went and personally urged you to leave, and you still didn't leave, and you were still there making a scene—so what exactly are you trying to do?

Since they are here, then things should be handled as they should. Zhou Jianping's behavior also violated the Public Security Administration Punishments Law, but his attitude was good and there was a cause for the matter, so it was just criticism, education, and a fine.

But Zheng Chuan's parents and Yuan Xiangnan's father were in trouble.

The problem now is whether their behavior is suspected of a crime and whether it needs to be investigated through a Case Filing!

Hearing this, the three of them were stunned.

Because they had really never heard of being suspected of a crime just for going to someone else's house!

Lao Xiao also said it very clearly: even if it doesn't reach the standard of a crime in the end, there will still be fifteen days of Administrative Detention; that is the bare minimum.

The remaining family members were secretly rejoicing there, fortunate that when the police said to retreat, they had left quickly.

Don't look at the fact that the door was open, don't look at the fact that it was only a few steps; the situation is as different as heaven and earth, because a residence, or rather a "home," is just that sacred. Home is the final harbor, and its safety must be guaranteed.

Therefore, in Criminal Law, anything involving entering a home will have its sentencing increased.

Zhou Yi's family had nothing left to do after finishing their statements and returned home.

Lying on the bed, Zhou Mouren still couldn't fall asleep; he still felt that even if he were to be serious in the future, he had to use the right methods.

He absolutely must not be so impulsive. Today, those people were just bluffing and didn't dare to move; if something had really happened to his parents, he would never have been able to let it go for the rest of his life.

Besides, Lawyer Fang's legal calendar really isn't just made up...

This chapter makes up for yesterday's missed update; I fell asleep last night, and then today I'm embarrassed to explain, emmm, six thousand words. Next is today's update. Thanks to Wenchidage, another novice brother, and Feimaowuyu. Thanks to the three brothers for the tips, thank you.
