Chapter 502: Havoc at the Police Station

Yi Zheng was worried about Shi Man meeting Zheng Xin just like that and wanted to go to the police station with her.
However, before he could say anything, Shi Man suddenly turned around and blocked his unfinished words. “Go back first. Uncle Zheng will send me back later.”
Chief Zheng nodded solemnly.
Seeing that she had taken the initiative to say this, Yi Zheng couldn’t say anything else. He sighed deeply and rubbed her head. “Alright, remember to tell Mom not to worry about you at home.”
“I know.” Shi Man ran back to the Shi family and explained Chief Zheng’s request. Then, she quickly returned and got into the police car parked at the door.
The police station was still brightly lit. There was an old man sitting in the corridor outside, crying non-stop. Shi Man looked around in frustration and realized that the person was Ding Hui’s father.
Father Ding had clearly seen Shi Man too.
He got up from the ground in disbelief and slapped his thigh excitedly. He shouted, “The heavens have eyes! My son’s death is indeed related to you! The police have finally arrested you!”
Chief Zheng frowned and looked at the expressionless girl beside him. He said coldly and angrily, “How can the police station let just anyone in? This is the office area. All cases have to be strictly confidential. How can you let irrelevant people in?”
The police officers who had been scolded stood up innocently and explained timidly, “Chief, this person is the father of the deceased who jumped off the building in the West District. As soon as he entered, he sat on the ground and started crying. We really had no choice.”
Chief Zheng narrowed his eyes majestically and stared at Mr. Ding with a cold gaze. “You are interfering with the police’s normal investigation. For that, I can detain you on the charge of disturbing the justice.”
“What right do you have to detain me?! I’m here to demand an explanation for my son!” Father Ding was a rough person. He didn’t know the law and didn’t know how to read people’s expressions. Seeing that Chief Zheng’s expression was getting worse and worse, he even criticized Chief Zheng for his mistakes.
“You police work for the people! Then you should be supervised by the people. Moreover, I’m the victim’s family. This woman is the person who should be responsible for my son’s death. If you don’t sentence her, you’ll be protected by the officials!”
His words were unreasonable, but Ding Hui still felt that they were stunned by his words. He immediately sat down on the office chair of the other police officers arrogantly and shook his legs calmly. “What are you looking at me for? Hurry up and do your case. My son is still in the morgue. If you don’t investigate quickly, how can I bring my son back to rest?”
Director Zheng looked away in frustration. If he wasn’t a director who had to set an example, he would have chased Father Ding out and scolded him.
He was in an extremely bad mood now. His daughter was still imprisoned and was about to be sent to the prosecutor’s office for trial. How could he be in the mood to care about his pestering?
He simply gave a look to a police officer beside him and asked him to quickly throw this unreasonable old man out, lest he sat here as an eyesore and delayed the progress of the investigation.
The young police officer was also smart. He had long disliked the old man’s behavior and had not dared to touch him because he was afraid of getting into trouble.
However, now that he had the personal instructions of his leader, he immediately put down the dossier in his hand and walked over to easily pick up the old man who was still immersed in his smugness.
“What are you doing? I want to watch this woman confess here! I’m not going anywhere!” Father Ding struggled in a panic, but he was obviously no match for the police. He was forcefully dragged to the door.
“Idle people are not allowed to enter the office area. We will investigate your son’s matter clearly. Please go home and wait for our notice.” The police officer’s words were extremely polite, and no one could find any fault with him, but his actions were not ambiguous.
Mr. Ding could not break free. When he passed by Shi Man, he suddenly widened his eyes in anger and pointed at her fiercely. “You must have bribed this group of police officers because you don’t want to give my son’s funeral fees, right?! You’re black-hearted! You made money from my son’s life! You’ll suffer retribution sooner or later!”
Shi Man glanced at him coldly, and the cold light in her eyes shooting straight into his heart.
Father Ding panicked for no reason. He opened his mouth but forgot what he was about to say. He even forgot to struggle and was dragged out of the police station.
After Mr. Ding left, the office fell silent again. Everyone stared at Chief Zheng’s gloomy expression in silence.
In the next moment, they saw a gentle smile on his face. He turned around and took the initiative to make way for the girl beside him. “Let’s go. We don’t have much time. I’ll send you back after it’s over.”
“Yes.” Shi Man followed behind him expressionlessly.
Chief Zheng sent her into the interrogation room and left with a complicated expression. At the same time, he turned off the video recorder inside and chased away everyone in front of the camera..
