Chapter 220: Police!
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“I say, Su Xuan, you should take a break.”
“Look at you, have you gone all obsessed? You haven’t eaten properly all day, not even a decent meal at the cafeteria…
“I’m genuinely worried you might starve!”
On this night, the lights were on in a certain office of the police station. Zhou Qiang, who was also working overtime on a case, took a deep breath as he glanced at Su Xuan in front of him.
This won’t do, he’s hungry.
When he took out instant noodles, Zhou Qiang looked at Su Xuan and decided to get an extra box for him. He filled both boxes with hot water and waited a few minutes before handing Su Xuan his portion.
“I’ve got some for you too,” he said as he handed over the noodles.
Su Xuan looked down and, with his already hungry stomach, the aroma of the instant noodles triggered an immediate response. He reached for his stomach, his hand almost frozen in a position, and placed it next to the box of noodles. The steam from the noodles warmed his hand.
“Thanks, buddy,” Su Xuan said, finally stopping his stomach’s protests.
Zhou Qiang sat down next to him, still puzzled.
“I mean, why are you working so hard today? What’s the big deal?
“And the main thing is, you’ve been reading all these legal texts. Haven’t you seen enough of that stuff back in police school?”
“I nearly threw up from reading these things back then.
“So now, you’re looking at them again… Is there a case that’s got you stumped?”
“You could tell me, maybe I can offer some advice!”
Zhou Qiang looked at the instant noodles and said, “Come on, I’ve got some
time now, I can listen to what you have to say.”
“What case has got you all worked up?”
With his friend’s words echoing in his ears, Su Xuan thought for a moment and decided that it wouldn’t hurt to share this matter with his buddy.
“I mentioned to you before that when I was on a date with my girlfriend, I saw another couple, right?”
Zhou Qiang remembered this incident.
Could it be that Su Xuan’s current determination was related to that couple?
“What happened with that couple?”
“The guy in that couple has been selling his girlfriend’s blood for several years
in a row.”
Su Xuan said with a serious expression, “The girl is completely unaware of fr(e)enovelkiss
this.”
“In my view, this is no different from breaking the law.”
“After all, he’s not donating blood, he’s profiting from her blood.
“But I haven’t found any relevant legal provisions that would confirm his actions as illegal.”
“Even getting him to cooperate with our investigation at the police station seems impossible…”
It could be said that since he had crossed over to this world, this was the first time he had encountered such a challenging problem.
“Oh, this…”
Zhou Qiang was also baffled at this point. After hearing what Su Xuan had said, he felt a strong sense of anger welling up inside him.
But, just as Su Xuan had pointed out…
In that moment, his mind raced, yet he couldn’t find any relevant legal provisions that would confirm the illegality of the guy’s actions.
“No wonder you want to look at legal provisions.
“On a legal level, there is indeed no clear conclusion regarding this matter…
“If you want to pursue this, it’s likely to be very difficult.”
With a sigh, Zhou Qiang looked at Su Xuan and asked, “Are you sure you want to take this on?”
They had been police officers for so many years and had encountered all kinds of cases. Their hearts had long hardened. For example, while Zhou Qiang was indeed angry upon hearing about the girl’s plight, he also quickly considered what would happen if they got involved in this matter.
“I will.”
Su Xuan replied firmly, “This girl has already suffered so much. If I don’t take action, who will?”
“I am a policeman!”
These three sentences, though spoken lightly, carried great weight. Even Zhou Qiang, who had initially wanted to dissuade him, was stunned by these three sentences.
He thought to himself.
No wonder Su Xuan had become so strong after his breakup. Could it be possible that his character had something to do with it? Such youthful determination… He had once possessed it too!
“Alright, the instant noodles are ready to eat.”
Reining in his thoughts, Zhou Qiang spoke up, “This path will be quite challenging…”
“Brother, I won’t participate, but I support you in my heart!”
“I hope you can bring that guy to justice!”
At times like this, any discouragement would be futile. The only thing useful was to encourage Su Xuan. Moreover…
On some level, Zhou Qiang also hoped that Su Xuan could successfully apprehend that guy who was morally dancing a jig!
Damn!
What kind of beast!
Su Xuan took a sip of the noodle soup, and the hot broth quickly eased the discomfort in his stomach. He smiled and nodded with determination in his eyes.
“Believe in me!”
Su Xuan searched for several days. He combed through the entire legal text but couldn’t find anything amiss. What was even more terrifying was that the next blood sale had already begun.
After enduring several days at work, Su Xuan raised his head from the documents, his eyes filled with intense anger. He slapped the desk!
Leading his team of officers, Su Xuan headed straight for the illegal clinic.
Inside the clinic, Deng Jingjing, who had already lost consciousness, lay on one of the beds. Zhang Zehao stood by the bedside, watching as blood was being drawn from her arm. His expression shifted continuously, but before he could say anything, he was promptly ushered out by a doctor.
“Try to make her eat less from now on,” the doctor advised, leaving Zhang Zehao puzzled.
“What’s the matter?” he inquired.
“These days, her diet has become too varied, making her blood thicker,” the doctor explained. “If her blood remains like this next time, I won’t accept it. Besides me, I doubt anyone else would be willing to receive her blood.
The doctor, in a white coat, continued, “If you heed my advice, make sure she loses some weight. She’s too obese now. I hope she can shed ten or twenty pounds before the next visit. Being a bit leaner would be better.”
After delivering the advice, the doctor walked away, leaving Zhang Zehao alone and fuming. His face contorted in anger as he pounded the wall with his fist.
“Eat less?”
“Too obese?”
“Damn it, it’s not that easy!”
It was you who wanted me to fatten her up in the first place… and now you’re telling me she needs to slim down because the blood isn’t good enough?
Damn it, if it weren’t for the money I need from you, I’d walk away right now!
As time passed, Deng Jingjing’s complexion grew paler and paler. The doctor removed the needle from her hand and happened to catch her eyes fluttering open.
“Doctor, is she okay?”
“Everything’s fine,” the doctor replied, offering an innocent smile. He turned to her and said, “Thank you for your blood donation, it will save many lives.
A faint color returned to Deng Jingjing’s pale face. She was happy because of the doctor’s words. For Deng Jingjing, who had previously lived in an ivory tower, she had no idea how many people in the world were suffering. If she could help someone by donating blood, why not? She was willing!
Suddenly, the clinic’s door was pushed open by a figure, accompanied by others.
“Don’t move!”
“Police!”
