You were asked to come to the scene, and you arrested the person who called the police.
Zhou Cheng's voice was extremely decisive.
It left Cheng Wei momentarily speechless; she wanted to argue with Zhou Cheng, but she didn't know how to begin.
At this moment, she seemed to realize that in front of this young Police Officer, the weakness and suffering she displayed to gain sympathy were all useless!
His eyes seemed as if they could see through to the entire truth!
Cheng Wei hesitated, wanting to speak but stopping herself.
On the side, the reporter Xiao Feng couldn't help but say to Zhou Cheng:
"Police Officer Brother, how can you do this?"
"Ms. Cheng called the police because the money for her daughter's medical treatment was defrauded by him! They only smashed the shop and hit him in a moment of desperation, which is understandable! They are the weak ones, and you are a policeman; you should be protecting the weak!"
"If he hadn't cheated everyone and taken their money, would everyone have smashed his shop? Would they have hit him?"
Xiao Feng was really "helping," but she was only making things worse!
Hearing this, Zhou Cheng looked at Xiao Feng.
Then he said, "What do you mean by 'understandable'? What do you mean by 'weak'?"
"Are you saying that the person lying on the ground outside, bleeding from being beaten, is the strong one? Did he use his face to hit someone's hand? Are you saying he deserved to have his shop smashed?"
"The truth of the matter is still under investigation; we cannot label anyone yet!"
"Besides, are you the police, or am I? Do I need you to teach me how to do my job?!"
Zhou Cheng spoke word by word, radiating an air of stern justice.
It wasn't as if calling a reporter meant one could stand above the law.
Or that one could use a reporter to exert pressure and change his actions!
As far as Zhou Cheng was concerned, the last thing he feared was a reporter!
Zhou Cheng's words made the reporter's face turn red!
She looked at Zhou Cheng and said angrily,
"What is your badge number? I'm definitely going to file a complaint against you!"
"Also, everything that just happened was captured by the cameraman, and we will post it all online!"
Xiao Feng's tone carried a hint of a threat.
However, Zhou Cheng wasn't worried at all. He said casually,
"Do as you wish, but for now, shut up. Don't interfere with my case anymore, or I'll arrest you for obstructing official business!"
"You!" Xiao Feng said indignantly.
Many people would restrain themselves in front of a camera, fearing online public opinion.
She didn't expect the policeman in front of her to not care at all, even threatening to arrest her!
Zhou Cheng stopped paying attention to her.
After retrieving the surveillance footage from the shop entrance, he directly told Zhao Yier to watch the footage and identify the people who smashed the shop and hit the victim!
Zhou Cheng had no good feelings toward them at all!
After stepping outside, Zhou Cheng shouted, "The shop's surveillance footage has been retrieved. Those who just hit people and smashed the shop, step forward voluntarily. Don't even think about running away! If you leave now, the circumstances will be even more severe!"
As soon as he spoke, those who had intended to sneak away stopped in their tracks!
But there were still stubborn ones!
They shouted directly at Zhou Cheng,
"Don't worry, I'm definitely not leaving. That kid Yang Jian cheated me out of tens of thousands with a few packs of Nourishing Tea. He deserved the beating!"
"Exactly. I don't believe it. How else are you going to shield him?"
"What's your badge number? I'm calling to complain about you right now!"
These people spoke very toughly, but in Zhou Cheng's eyes, they were all ungrateful people!
With Yang Jian's ability, even if he only gave them ordinary Nourishing Tea or recipes for clearing heat and relieving summer heat after taking their money, the effects would have been very obvious! It was impossible for them not to feel it!
So, ultimately, it was simply that these people had recovered and now felt the money wasn't worth it, that they had spent too much.
Thus, they wanted their money back. Cheng Wei might even have taken money from other companies to force Yang Jian to hand over his prescriptions!
Zhou Cheng glanced at them and chose to ignore them!
Sitting on the ground, Yang Jian watched the entire process! He hadn't expected Zhou Cheng to side with him and help resolve today's trouble!
He coughed twice and said softly to Zhou Cheng,
"Police Officer, I'm fine. The medicine I gave them really was just Nourishing Tea, and I indeed don't have a medical license. I admit to all of that."
"I feel like I don't have much time left anyway. Let's just end it here."
"Sister Cheng used to be very good to me. Although I don't know why she brought so many people to beat me, I understand her."
"Grandpa Qian has stomach cancer. When I was a child, he would occasionally give me a few yuan in pocket money. Maybe it's because the money I asked from him was too much, so he thinks I defrauded him."
"Xiao Hai is a good friend I grew up with. He just got married this year, but unexpectedly developed liver cancer. Giving me a large sum of money must have been beyond what he could afford."
"So, Police Officer, please don't arrest them. This shop was left to me by my grandfather. I'll sell the shop in a bit and then return the money to them."
Yang Jian sat at Zhou Cheng's feet, speaking weakly.
The people he mentioned were the ones who had hit him the hardest!
Even at a time like this, he was still speaking up for them, which really gave Zhou Cheng a headache! It was so frustrating to hear!
"Oh, I see, but what you say is useless," Zhou Cheng replied casually.
At this time, Sun Qian and the others also arrived.
Captain Wu happened to be at the station as well. When he saw that Sun Qian was actually going to bring a prisoner transport vehicle, he immediately followed along!
He was also puzzled. Wasn't this just a report of someone practicing medicine illegally? Wouldn't it be enough to just take that Jianghu doctor to the station?
Why the need for a prisoner transport vehicle?
What was he planning to do?
The prisoner transport vehicle parked by the roadside. Captain Wu and Sun Qian found Zhou Cheng.
"Zhou Cheng, what's the situation on-site? Why do you still need a prisoner transport vehicle?" Captain Wu asked Zhou Cheng in confusion.
"The situation is under control! Because there are quite a few people who need to be taken back to the station, we need the prisoner transport vehicle to bring them all back!" Zhou Cheng said.
This left Captain Wu bewildered.
"Where's the person who was practicing medicine illegally and defrauding people?" Captain Wu asked.
"On the ground. I've already had Xiao Zhao call for an ambulance. We'll send him to the hospital first, and conduct the interrogation and investigation while he's being treated," Zhou Cheng replied.
These words made Captain Wu even more confused.
"Then what do you need the prisoner transport vehicle for?"
"To arrest the group of people who called the police. They smashed that young man's shop and also laid hands on him, so I had the prisoner transport vehicle come to arrest them all!"
Captain Wu: ???
Good heavens, truly incredible. You were sent to respond to a call, but you arrested the party that called the police and sent the one accused of illegal medical fraud to the hospital?
Is this really right?
