Chapter 1015: Officer Xia Jie

~5 min read 884 words

Dealing with such a brazen, no-good woman,

Li Dawei's Master and Xia Jie's Master both had experience,

but all their experience was in muddling through and accepting defeat,

these two men had been police officers for over twenty years,

yet they truly had no way to handle such a brazen, no-good woman!

So,

after whispering a few words to each other,

both men frowned deeply,

then walked over to Li Dawei and Xia Jie,

and glanced at the parties involved: Qin Feng, Xu Hongdou, and Chen Nanxing.

Xia Jie's Master, Chief Chen, merely gave Qin Feng a slight nod as a greeting, daring not to make any grand gesture.

Xia Jie's Master knew

that at this moment,

the middle-aged woman would be watching every word and action they took,

and if he showed even a hint of knowing Qin Feng, she would seize on it immediately, accuse them of colluding and being complicit, and escalate the matter further,

so, he could only give a light nod, then looked at Xia Jie and Li Dawei and said: "Xia Jie, Dawei, this matter is hard to handle. This woman is no pushover, and with a child involved, it's truly difficult to resolve."

"Moreover, personally, I advise against taking this to the station for official procedures, because if we bring them there, this woman will likely cling to our station from now on."

"Right."

Li Dawei's Master nodded, then shot a sharp glare at Li Dawei, who had just opened his mouth to protest, before continuing: "Li Dawei, shut up and listen. Chief Chen is right—this woman cannot be brought to the station. Once we do, it becomes a major incident. So, the best course is to shrink this matter down as much as possible."

"Alright, Dawei, you go over to that woman alone and ask what her exact demands are. If she just wants money and an apology, we'll talk to these three again and settle this as quickly as we can."

Li Dawei's eyes filled with confusion and a hint of grievance: "But Master, you and Chief Chen both saw and heard it—this woman is clearly the one at fault, and she even insulted our police officers. Why should we not punish her but instead accommodate her? What logic is that?!"

"Li Dawei, lower your voice!"

Li Dawei's Master glared at him fiercely, then said: "Let me tell you, this isn't as simple as one plus one equals two. Dawei, this kind of person, our station can't afford to fight or waste time on. You and Xia Jie are still young—you haven't experienced this. But me and Chief Chen have been burned before. Listen to us: go talk to her first, mind your tone. As for these three parties, I'll handle them."

Hearing this, Li Dawei felt deeply stifled, his face full of unwillingness.

Seeing this, Xia Jie turned to look at Qin Feng, then sighed softly and said: "Then let me go talk to that woman, find out exactly what she wants. As for Qin Feng's side, Master, would you mind handling the communication?"

Xia Jie's Master nodded and said: "That works. After all, we've dealt with Qin Feng a few times already. I'll explain the situation and outcome to him—he should understand our position."

Xia Jie said: "Alright then, Dawei, you stay here with Officer Chen."

Saying this,

Xia Jie stepped forward first toward the middle-aged woman,

Officer Cao, seeing this, glanced back at the woman, then whispered to Xia Jie as she approached: "Xia Jie, this kind of woman is hard to shake off. Be cautious with your approach and tone. If things go badly, we'll think of another way."

"Mm, okay."

Xia Jie replied,

walked up beside the middle-aged woman,

then,

Xia Jie reached into her pocket and pulled out a tissue, offering it to the woman: "Wipe the child's face—he's covered in dust…"

The middle-aged woman took the tissue without expression, waved over her plump son, who had been crouching on the ground like a clever monkey, watching the scene,

then,

the middle-aged woman used the tissue to wipe the boy's face, then deliberately made him blow his nose,

then,

the middle-aged woman cast a sidelong glance at Xia Jie and dropped the tissue used to wipe the boy's snot into Xia Jie's hand, saying: "Sorry, Officer, my leg hurts—I can't move. Mafanni Gang throw this away for me."

Xia Jie's eyes turned cold, yet she gave a helpless smile,

stood up, walked to the trash bin, and tossed the tissue inside,

then sat down on the ground directly facing the middle-aged woman and asked: "Sister, be straight—what do you want to settle this completely?"

"Demands?"

The middle-aged woman snorted, lifting her head haughtily: "Officer, don't scare me—I dare not make demands!"

Xia Jie shook her head with a faint smile: "I'm not scaring you. I just want to resolve this quickly. Say it—Sister, if I can handle it, I'll do my best."

"Really?"

Hearing this, the middle-aged woman's eyes flickered with interest; she glanced across the crowd at Qin Feng and the other two,

then her face turned icy, her eyes filled with malice as she spat: "Then I want all three of them locked up—every last one of them! And they must pay us fifty million—Daxia currency!"
