Chapter 127: Apologizing to Mr. Chen

~8 min read 1,592 words

"How incredibly bold!"

This sudden scene caused the man among the two officers to misunderstand, thinking that Du Chuan was still resisting desperately and committing murder right in front of them to provoke them!

"I'm going to shoot you dead, damn it!"

The male officer was a burly man with a rugged appearance; ignoring the female officer's attempt to stop him, he drew the gun from his back waist and was the first to charge up the stairs.

However, upon reaching the floor, he was instantly stunned!

The Patrol Bureau Warriors under Du Chuan were standing neatly in a row, like a squad waiting for inspection.

Chen Che was currently untying the ropes on Fu Lang and his family.

"Brother Chen Che!"

After the ropes were untied, Fu Yanyan, full of grievances, let out a delicate cry and threw herself into Chen Che's arms, sobbing. Chen Che held her and comforted her softly.

Only Du Chuan lay slumped to the side like a pile of mud, ignored by everyone.

"Officer, hurry! It's me, I'm Du Chuan, I confess, I confess to everything, hurry up and kill me, hurry up and kill me!"

The moment Du Chuan saw the male officer, he began begging for death.

Chen Che had not only broken all the bones in his body but had also deliberately struck his acupoints to keep him constantly conscious.

Therefore, the pain he was currently enduring had long since caused him to collapse, and he only wanted to die!

The male officer walked toward Du Chuan, full of suspicion, and said with a cold face, "Get up and speak."

"I... I can't get up, all the bones in my body are broken!"

Du Chuan's words took the male officer by surprise; according to the evidence sent by Lin Su and the situation described, it should have been Du Chuan kidnapping and threatening others.

But how was it that Du Chuan now looked like the victim?!

"Who did this?" the male officer asked.

"Ah... it... it is..."

Du Chuan glanced at Chen Che, stammering, but ultimately did not say it, because the fear of being dominated by Chen Che made him dare not even look Chen Che in the eye, let alone say his name now!

Even though Du Chuan did not say it, the male officer still deduced it from his gaze; he turned to look at Chen Che, lifted his chin, and asked, "Kid, did you inflict the injuries on his body?"

Chen Che held Fu Yanyan and turned his head to look at the male officer; the other party's arrogant attitude made him frown: "It was me."

The male officer scrutinized Chen Che carefully and asked again: "You are Chen Che? Are you the one who obtained the evidence from the Martial Arts Alliance?"

"That's right," Chen Che nodded.

The male officer narrowed his eyes, his gaze filled with disbelief, as if saying: "Just you?"

"Is there a problem, officer?"

Chen Che felt offended by the other party's gaze and spoke with a frown.

"You say the injuries on Du Chuan's body were caused by you... When I came up just now, I saw that a Patrol Bureau Warrior on the open ground below had all his ribs dug out; was that also your doing?"

The male officer asked again.

Chen Che admitted: "Yes."

"Then the Patrol Bureau Warrior who fell down just now, did you push him down too?"

The male officer's eyes radiated intense hostility as he asked again.

Chen Che shook his head: "He jumped down himself."

The male officer scoffed, completely disbelieving: "He jumped himself? Is he crazy to jump off a building himself?!"

"Kid, give me a reason?" the male officer said with an unfriendly tone.

"They wanted to harm my family and me, so I took action; I belong to the category of legitimate self-defense."

Chen Che said.

"Legitimate self-defense?"

The male officer's tone rose an octave as he shouted: "Breaking all the bones in the body is legitimate self-defense? Digging out the opponent's ribs is legitimate self-defense? Even with me already having arrived, you still pushed someone off the building; you tell me this is legitimate self-defense?!! Do you still hold me, an officer of the Beijing Patrol Bureau, in your eyes?"

Chen Che quietly watched the male officer's furious face and understood why he was targeting him.

It had nothing to do with Du Chuan or Cao Qiang; the key was Wang Jiang, who had jumped down.

The male officer was convinced that Chen Che had pushed Wang Jiang off the building even though they had already arrived.

This caused him to miss his chance to perform, and the matter ended. Most importantly, Chen Che had usurped the power he was supposed to exercise—punishing evil!

Chen Che's "usurping" behavior severely offended and provoked his power and authority; this was the true reason for his anger!

Thinking this through, Chen Che no longer wore a pleasant expression and confronted the male officer, saying: "Is there a problem?"

Hiss~~

Hearing Chen Che say this, those Patrol Bureau Warriors all gasped in unison.

The male officer was also stunned for a moment; he had not expected Chen Che to dare speak to him like that!

He was already angry because Chen Che had offended his dignity, and now, being openly contradicted by Chen Che, he instantly flew into a rage.

"Kid, do you think that just because you are a victim, you can be unscrupulous and lawless?!"

The male officer shouted angrily: "I am now officially arresting you; you are involved in excessive self-defense, intentional injury, and malicious attacks against members of the Patrol Bureau—three charges!"

"Ha!"

Chen Che sneered and said: "Where were you when my family was kidnapped? Where were you when Du Chuan was threatening me? Where were you when they aimed their guns at me and wanted to kill me?

I resolved the crisis myself, and I thought you would uphold justice after you arrived, but I didn't expect you to blame me for excessive self-defense and want to arrest me?

Is this the justice and fairness that the Patrol Bureau represents? Just for your pathetic self-esteem and authority, can you just slap labels on people and arrest them?"

"The justice and fairness that the Patrol Bureau represents is equality! Du Chuan and his accomplices are criminals, but they also have human rights! You took private revenge, which is also breaking the rules; I should arrest you!"

The male officer was completely provoked by Chen Che's series of questions and roared in anger.

Chen Che sneered disdainfully: "Then may I ask, officer, in the long time you've been up here, have you looked at my family even once? They are the most innocent people; have you cared about their human rights?

I do not deny the equality you speak of, nor do I doubt the justice and fairness the Patrol Bureau represents, but as the executor, you are not qualified, nor are you worthy!"

Chen Che's words were resonant and forceful, and the Fu Lang family felt deeply vindicated and gratified upon hearing them.

As for those Patrol Bureau Warriors, every one of them widened their eyes in shock!

Although they also felt that what Chen Che said made sense and that the officer from Beijing was indeed unqualified.

But the other party was, after all, an officer from the Beijing Patrol Bureau; for Chen Che to dare speak to him like that, his courage was truly too great!

"You... you you..."

The male officer was rendered speechless by Chen Che's retort, and in a fit of shame and anger, he roared, "I'll kill you!"

The male officer raised his handgun and aimed it at Chen Che.

Chen Che immediately narrowed his eyes in vigilance, while Fu Yanyan was so frightened that she buried her face even deeper into Chen Che's chest; Fu Lang and Gao Huiwen were both deathly pale, their faces filled with worry and panic!

"Stop!"

At this moment, a dignified and sharp shout rang out.

The female officer, Lin Su, and the transferred Patrol Bureau Warriors all came up.

"Cao He, put the gun down!"

The female officer commanded in an icy voice.

Cao He glared at Chen Che with resentment before lowering his arm holding the gun.

The female officer walked over quickly, snatched the gun from Cao He, and barked, "Have you forgotten the Patrol Bureau regulations, hmm?"

"Officer, his actions were indeed—"

"Recite the first article of the regulations for me!"

The heroic-looking female officer cut Cao He off decisively and ordered.

Cao He's body trembled; he realized that the female officer was truly furious.

Although they worked together, Cao He's position had the prefix "deputy," which made him one rank lower than the female officer.

Facing his female superior's order, Cao He dared not delay; he quickly stood at attention and said sternly, "Article one of the regulations: Patrol Bureau members shall not point their guns at anyone unless their lives are threatened!"

Cao He recited the first article of the regulations, then observed the female officer's expression.

The female officer was expressionless, clearly still not appeased; she had heard the conversation between Cao He and Chen Che clearly when she came up just now, and she was extremely angry at Cao He's conduct.

The female officer ordered again, "Apologize to Mr. Chen!"

Huh?

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present was stunned!

The female officer actually addressed Chen Che as Mr. Chen and even made Cao He apologize to him?!
