Lin Shuang also did not leave and said, “Song Zhi, since you have a car, why not give me a ride?”
Although Song Zhi was not pleased that Lin Shuang had failed to stop Liu Hua earlier, he wouldn’t pass up an opportunity to show off in front of others.
“Sure! Let me offer you a ride in a private car!” Song Zhi said, shaking his head and already over his previous sadness.
Xia Chen and Liu Hua were waiting in the same spot.
After a while, a black sedan slowly drove up.
Zhou Chen hurried a few steps forward and asked Song Zhi, “Is this your family’s car coming to pick you up?
Song Zhi glanced at the black sedan’s shiny new paint and quickly scanned the logo on the front, his expression darkening. He muttered quietly, “No, it’s not!” As soon as Song Zhi finished speaking, the black sedan stopped right in front
of them.
A driver in a black uniform stepped out of the sedan and asked them, “Excuse me, which one of you is Xia Wan’s brother?”
Upon hearing this, Xia Chen immediately stepped forward and said, “I am!”
The driver nodded and said to Xia Chen and Liu Hua who were following,
“Please get in the car, I’ll take you back.”
Just as Xia Chen was about to get into the car, another car came from a distance.
A silver-grey private car approached, its front slightly damaged, but not too slow.
The car quickly came to a halt in front of Song Zhi and others, with a screech of brakes.
Song Zhi’s father slowly rolled down the car window and poked his head out, “Hurry up and get in the car! I don’t have time to wait here! I still have a lot to do later!”
His father’s impatience made Song Zhi feel even more embarrassed.
The silver-grey body of the car was mottled with rust stains and flaking paint due to its age.
The car emitted a rumbling sound, forming a stark contrast with the black sedan parked not far away.
Song Zhi gritted his teeth in secret, opened the car door, and got in.
The car door creaked in protest.
Zhou Chen watched Xia Chen and Liu Hua get into the brand-new black sedan and drive away, sighed, and followed them into the old Song family car.
Lin Shuang also followed, opening the car door and getting in.
Song Zhi’s father did not stop his complaints because Zhou Chen and Lin Shuang were present: “Knowing I’m busy every day, yet still troubling me with this kind of thing! ”
“Can’t you take the bus home yourself?”
“And I have to give a ride to your friend too!”
“Don’t any of you know how hard it is for adults to work?”
Amidst the complaints of Song Zhi’s father, Song Zhi, Zhou Chen, and Lin Shuang all bowed their heads.
Xia Wan arrived at the police station in Lin Chao’s car and immediately saw Officer Song waiting at the entrance.
“Officer Song, were you waiting here for me?” Xia Wan asked, seeing Officer Song hurrying towards her.
“Miss Xia, indeed, I was waiting for you,” Officer Song said, glancing at Lin
Chao.
Xia Wan also glanced at Lin Chao, who then stepped a few paces away, distancing themselves.
“Miss Xia, the station just issued a notice to deal severely with that Mr. Fang,” Officer Song glanced at Lin Chao, “Is this what Miss Xia meant?”
Xia Wan slightly raised her eyebrows, “Are you saying that if no one instructed, Mr. Fang would have been released unharmed after being detained for two days?”
Hearing Xia Wan’s questioning, Officer Song immediately explained, “Miss Xia, that’s not what I mean!”
“My point is… my point is…” Officer Song hesitated for a long time, not knowing how to start.
Xia Wan didn’t want to hear more, simply saying, “I haven’t given any instructions, and I also believe the police station is a fair and strict administrative agency. You have your own rules.”
“I believe you will handle this matter impartially, right?”
Xia Wan’s question slightly changed Officer Song’s expression.
“We will handle it impartially,” Officer Song said solemnly, as if answering Xia Wan and also making a promise to himself.
Xia Wan nodded, not saying anything more, and gestured for Lin Chao to walk into the police station with her.
After entering the interrogation room and completing the record, Xia Wan sat in Lin Chao’s car and after a while asked, “Was it you who instructed someone to punish that Brother Fang severely?”
Lin Chao looked at Xia Wan and then shook his head, “No, it wasn’t me.” Lin Chao’s response seemed to surprise Xia Wan, “Not you? Then who could it
