Chapter 185 - Is Your Brain Filled with Lead? (2/2)

The thing that was most difficult for the police was, all evidence pointed to the fact that Chen Ge was also one of the victims, but this ‘victim’ had chased after the culprits aggressively.

After the interrogation, the police did not show any sign that they were going to let him go. “Mr. Chen, we need to have a meeting to discuss your situation.”

“Okay, but can you give me back my phone? I wish to call my family to tell them that I’m safe.” Chen Ge actually wanted to call Inspector Lee for help. This time, things were different. His livestream was no longer limited to a small circle. It had broken 600,000 viewers; in other words, the situation had gotten a bit out of hand.

“Please wait patiently.” The police officer rejected Chen Ge’s request and left the interrogation room. It was not until noon that the door opened again. Chen Ge, who had been fully cooperative, turned to look at the door.

A slightly fat police stood at the door. He wore a uniform that was different from others’.

“Captain Yan?” Chen Ge was surprised. It was this officer who had presented his medal when Chen Ge helped solved the case at Ping An Apartments.

“Follow me, someone wants to meet you.” Different from last time, Captain Yan’s expression was severe. Chen Ge stood up slowly and wondered, Am I going to meet some big character?

After exiting the interrogation room, they walked down the corridor before stopping outside a room. Through the glass window, Chen Ge looked in. The girl who had been trapped inside the cage was safe. She was wearing the police outfit someone had given her, and she cowered in a corner of the room, hugging a bottle of water. She was shivering non-stop and would not communicate with anyone. She did not even dare to sit on the chair.

Standing not far from her was a middle-aged man, and this was the first time Chen Ge had seen a man break down so completely. The middle-aged man appeared to be the girl’s father. He was calling the girl’s name, but she did not give any response. She was still shrouded in fear.

“Go in, the father wants to meet you.”

When he walked in, the middle-aged father immediately rushed to Chen Ge. His emotions were running so high that he could not even finish a complete sentence.

…

About ten minutes later, Captain Yan and Chen Ge left the room.

“Earlier, we were all discussing about you, to determine whether what you’ve done has broken the law or not. At the end of the discussion, I also brought them here.” Captain Yan looked at the pair in the room. “If not for you, the girl would have spent the rest of her life inside a cage and the father would have spent his looking for his only family in this world.”

Chen Ge had a hard time controlling his emotions. Even though the girl was safe now, it would take a long time before the scar on her heart was healed.

“You’ve done good this time.” Captain Yan turned to Chen Ge. “After our discussion, we decided to temporarily ban your livestream, but as compensation, we’ll award you a record of merit.”

Instead of a punishment, banning Chen Ge’s livestream temporarily was more like a protection. This was to prevent Chen Ge from being used by others due to his newfound popularity.

As for that record of merit, Chen Ge did not know what it was. But since Captain Yan had specifically mentioned it, it should be a good thing.

“Thank you, but I was merely acting on my sense of justice. Sometimes, I just cannot control myself.” Chen Ge was not sure. After all, what he did yesterday night was rash. He had been armed with a cleaver and a hammer, and he had broken a culprit’s leg with the hammer. “Then, can I really go now?”

“Don’t try to get information from me.” Captain Yan pointed at his uniform. “We will not cheer for violence, but never will we punish a good conscience and sense of justice.”
