Chapter 56: Furious
Translator: Lionwwang Editor: Lionwwang
I know I am very embarrassing now. I am handcuffed on the radiator and can’t stand straight. I can’t crouch down. My bending legs are already sore and numb. I watch the two policemen come in. My heart is filled with anger and can’t help shouting: “You’ve handcuffed me here for a long time! What do you want to do?”
The policeman with the notebook is a little younger, probably a novice, and is immediately blushing and shouting: “Behave yourself! Don’t you see where it is?!”
“Where is it? Is here the people’s police station?” I use the handcuffs on my wrist to knock the radiator.
The young policeman is angry. He puts down the notebook and rushing to me with the angry look.
I hum, raise my neck and say: “You want to hit me? Come on! Come on!”
“Wong, stop!” The older policeman is suddenly speaking. He is about forty years old, looks well-experienced. He squints his eyes and stares at me, “Make a note first.”
Hearing this, the young policeman presses me down, unlocks me from the radiator, pushing me down on the chair. He is still staring at me fiercely.
I curl my lips and don’t feel fear at all.
I am not the first time come to such place, nor am not the first time facing such an occasion.
In fact, the police are all treat ing the new suspects like this. They will make a vicious look, so that the suspects can have a deterrent. This is a kind of intimidation. Some ruffian who comes for the first time would be soft immediately. But for some old birds, it’s nothing at all.
The next thing is taking notes, mostly from the young policeman, and the old policeman looks at me resemble a smile yet not smile.
“Name?”
“Chen Yang, 23 years old. Government ID: XXXXXX Home address: XXXXXX.”
“Don’t rubbish!” The young policeman is still angry, tapping his pen on the desk, staring me and shouting, “Answer whatever I ask!”
I smile and say: “You need to ask them anyway, I just save your time.”
The young policeman is going to get angry again. The old one next to him gives him a hint. He stops yelling, writing quickly on the notebook, and then shouting, “Do you know why you’re brought back!”
“I know.” I yawn, “A few bastards harassed my friend, and I fought against them. I was just in self-defense.”
“Just in self-defense?” The young policeman sneers: “If in self-defense, do you have any injuries? Those people, some of them fractures, some of them is still in coma! I tell you! Two people are still not awake yet!”
I sneer: “It was their fault! They deserve it!”
The old policeman waves and stops the young policeman from talking. He coughs and says in a slow voice: “You don’t have to say so many useless things, just tell us what was going on tonight. Just tell me the truth.”
“I have said, I was eating with my friends there, and those guys came up to harass my friend. And I just fought with them!”
“Hum! You are really a fighter.” The old policeman’s face lowers sullenly.
“They are too easy to be K.O.!” I curl my lips, “I said you handcuffs me for what? Is it arresting me or what? You need to give me a saying!”
“It will give you legal procedures.” The old policeman says lightly, “Where are your working now?”
After thinking, I find I don’t seem to have a company to work for. I’m a private employer of Nanny, so I answer: “No job.”
“No job?! Hum!” The old policeman looks at my clothes, “Your clothes worth at least thousands, no job?”
“No job is no job!” I reply with hum.
“Boy, you’d better be honest.” The old policeman says, “The people you hurt are still in the hospital now! Serious hurt! We are looking at your appearance. It seems that this is not the first time you come to this place. What is the nature of here? Don’t you know it indeed?”
I do not speak, but sneer.
The old policeman changes his tone in a mild tone. He says, “We are writing a record for you now. You’d better talk everything out yourself! Take the initiative! If you do not say anything, we can still figure it out! Then you will be passive. Do you know that?”
Here comes…
I laugh in my heart.
This is what the general police say when they interrogate. Generally speaking, people who enter this area for the first time will confess their crimes if they are mentally inferior.
As for me, I still say lightly: “They were harassing my friend. Whatever you ask or investigate, it’s the truth!”
The old policeman is not in a hurry and looks at me, “You know one of those people, don’t you?”
I move in my mind and say lightly, “Yes.”
“Have you had any hatred before?”
“No!” I deny it.
This is the key. If I say there was hatred. Then they will probably identify me as revenge or something like that.
So I couldn’t say.
As for the grudges between me and John, who can say it clearly? Last time I fix him in the nightclub, they have no any proof.
“Chief, this boy is not honest! May I give him some lessons?” The young policeman looks at me, gnashing his teeth.
The old policeman doesn’t respond. He just looks at me and says, “Chen Yang, listen to me. First, you know those people. I suspect that you are seeking revenge and deliberately hurting them now! Second, you say you are self-defense, and now four of them are in the hospital, one is deep coma! Can you self-defend yourself in such a way? Third, do not think you say nothing, we can’t find out your background! You are Chen Yang, aren’t you? Hmm, your details, when you come, we have already exported from the computer! You only twenty-three years old, but was placed in the house of detention for three or four times! I tell you! Rascal like you, I’ve seen a quiet a lot!”
I stare into his eyes with great momentum, I sneer and say, “I’ll tell you a few things, too. First, I didn’t mean to hurt people by looking for revenge! Have you ever seen revenge by taking a weak woman? Besides, if I fight for revenge, Will go alone to fight five? Stupid! Second, I’ve paid for everything I’ve done before. Yes, you can find out what I’ve done, but it used to be before. Now is now! You’re a policeman, don’t you need me to talk such a reason?”
The old policeman stands up, paces slowly to me, standing in front of me, stares at me for a few seconds, nods, and a sneer appearing on his face: “Well, you have a hard mouth! There will be enough time to let you cry!”
Then he goes back to the table and whispers something to the young policeman. The two men walk out of the room.
I’m sitting alone on the stool, my hands behind my back, and handcuffed to the stool.
Ten minutes later, the door opens again, and this time three policemen come in. In addition to the original two, there is a middle-aged man with a big nose, wearing the uniform, and looking at the shoulder band should be the highest rank. As soon as he comes in, he glances at me and frowns. “Not talk yet? Wang, give him some lessons!”
I take a deep breath: “What? Want to hit me? I can tell you…”
“Hey, kid, don’t worry, I won’t beat you.” The big nose shuts the door first, then comes over and stares at me. “You have a hard hand. You’ve broken Roth’s cheek bone! Comminuted fracture of the nose bridge, sixteen muscle injuries on the body, two fractures… Look at your age, your courage is big enough!”
I greet him with a sneer and say: “I say, if it were you, a couple of trash run up to you and ask whether your wife could sell, how much does she serve for a sex, how much does she serve for the whole night? You… ”
Pah!
I’m slapped on the face while I am speaking. The guy is furious, and the slap makes me stumble and almost fall off the chair. Half of my face suddenly leaves four fingers and my cheek is swollen.
“Hah! You still beat me!” My face is numb and I’m staring at him.
He stares down at me with a big nose. He hits too hard just now, now gasping and sneering.
“Who said I hit you? The injury on your face was left by fighting with those guys at night!”
FXXX!
I swallow my saliva and say: “Good! Come on! You just go on! You hurt me and you can’t explain! I didn’t get hurt when I got on the car. My friend and the people around me all saw! If I get out with injuries, you can’t explain it. If I were hurt from fighting, according to the rules, you should take me to the hospital first!”
“Boy, still firm in speech?” The big nose is about to raise his hand, but he thinks about it and puts down his hand, “Wong, just give him some spicies to taste!”
The young policeman releases an electric baton from his back and walks up to me. He holds it on his hand. On one head of the baton, the sparks are cracking and sparkling.
“Don’t worry, I won’t direct contact you.”
The old policeman in the back takes a basin with water in it from the corner of the wall. Then he turns to me and pushes my hands into the water.
My hands are on the back, and my body does not make any effort at all.
The young policeman opens the baton switch and put it into the water.
I feel as if I have been struck hard by a heavy fist, and all my organs are shaking. My body is jumping and I can’t help screaming.
People who have not been exposed to electricity do not understand such a feeling. And from water to shock people like this won’t leave any scar or injury on bodies.
“How do you feel?” The big nose is staring at me, “When you hit Roth, did you feel happy too?”
Roth… Hmm, he must be the guy who was finally broken nose by my knees.
I am trying to catch my breath, and the young policeman turns the switch on again.
“Fuck!” I cry loudly, and my muscles are shaking with pain. The body struggles like a fish out of water.
I stare at the big nose and grit my teeth: “Wha’s your relationship with that Roth relate?”
The big nose doesn’t answer, and he winks at my behind.
In the next twenty minutes, I am electrified three times and the whole body is numb. Even if they didn’t electrify me, I feel my palms trembling. Big nose coughs, the two policemen release me. The three men come back to the table and say: “OK, do you confess now?”
The big nose sits in the middle. He taps lightly on the table and sneers. “Boy, I tell you, the hospital’s reports have been sent back. It doesn’t matter you don’t confess. It is a fact that you hurt people seriously. By rule, you can be sent to the detention tonight. But I can still leave you here for forty-eight hours! Do you want to stay here for more lessons or honestly admit that you are fighting for revenge? ”
Looking at me still keeping silence, he says lightly to the two policemen: “You go ahead, I go out first.”
After that, he stares at me and smiles, then he goes out.
The old policeman gets up and closes the door, walks up to me, looks down at me, pulls out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, pulls one out, puts it in my mouth, and lights it for me: “Boy, tell me the truth. Less suffer.”
Hum, playing the good cop bad cop? Can this trick deceive me?
I take a smoke and look at him: “I was not looking for revenge, you know this!”
“No matter you were revenging or not? You hurt others seriously!”
I think carefully: “I was defending. If you want me to confess for revenge, I will be condemned! I’m not that stupid!”
“Not that stupid?” The old policeman laughs, “Not so stupid. Why did you hit Roth like that? You’re not living here, are you? Do not know him? Do you dare hit him? I respect you very much!”
I shake my head: “I don’t care who he is. Anyone attack me, do I have to look into his details before I fight back?” Smoking cigarettes, I slowly say, “You leave me here for one day and night at most. That big nose is Roth’s relative, right? FXXX! Shame!”
I laugh and scold, but the old policeman’s face is calm. Suddenly he sighs and taps my face. Then he takes the cigarette from my mouth, turns back to the table and looks at the young policeman: “Go on, Wong.”
The young policeman stands up and begins to solve his belt.
I sneer at my face and take a deep breath.
Just then, a knock from the door, and the old policeman frowns: “Interrogating. Wait a minute!”
A voice come from outside: “It’s urgent!”
The old policeman opens the door and goes out for a minute. When he comes back, he looks at me with a complicated look in his eyes: “You’re not that simple, boy?”
After saying this, he speaks to the young policeman. The two men go out, leaving me alone.
Waiting for five minutes, the door opens and two other policemen I don’t know come in, with a middle-aged man in a suit. He’s tall, thin and shrewd.
The next thing, like in the movie. That man, claims to be a lawyer, has helped me with some formalities. Then the policeman comes and releases me from the handcuffs and leads me out.
In the hall, I see Nanny sitting there. Her face is anxious, shoes missing one. The wound is still not dealt with. She sees me out, jumping up at once and running towards me with a limp as if she wants to throw herself into my arms.
I quickly reach for her arm and not let her fall into my arms.
Her cheeks turn red, and in her eyes, tears are coming anytime: “All right, the lawyer has done the formalities for you… You… Are you all right?”
I sigh and shake my head: “I’m OK! Just be locking up for a while.”
I don’t say what I was suffering here. Because it is useless.
What a clever woman Nanny is. When she sees the fingerprint on my face, she is suddenly turned angry. “Someone hit you?”
She is furious, pointing at the two policemen behind me: “How can you beat people? How dare you beat him! Good!” After that, she shouts to the lawyer, “Mr. Song! They beat my friend, how to do?”
The lawyer is probably accustomed to the scene, and his face does not fluctuate at all. He says lightly: “Miss Fang, let’s go back and discuss about it.”
If this is the abroad, maybe lawyer will lodge a complaint, to report or other way to deal with it.
But here, the lawyer understands the hidden rules.
Nanny obviously does not understand this, but nods her head in a dazed way. “Let’s go back first… Hmm, you wait for my lawyer’s letter!”
When we are walking out, two policemen are following us. We see two guys coming. I recognize that they are two of the guys I beat. They are John’s companions, who are probably injury not that hard. They are sent here to take notes after being handled briefly in the hospital.
I stop at once, and give them a fierce look. They two also show the fierce looks to us, but I can see that they are cowardly at heart.
Nanny is angry and screaming: “Why aren’t they arrested? Why did you catch Chen Yang, not catch them?!”
The two policemen in the rear are stunned, and just about to say something.
Suddenly, with a ‘Bang’ sound, the front entrance is kicked open. A strong man of about thirty is rushing in like a raging fire!
The man, with a square face, sharp facial features and a murderous face, dresses as an army officer, and with an unyielding figure. He rushes to Nanny and shouting: “Nanny, who the fuck is bothering you?” Suddenly he sees one of her feet without shoe, staring at the wound, “Are you hurt? Which bastard did it?”
When Nanny sees him, her face goes down. She says with upset: “These two!”
Suddenly, the man has an angry expression on the face. Without a word, he’s rushing to that two guys, kicking one in the stomach! That guy doesn’t even have the time to respond, just flies out several meters away.
I can’t help frowning. FXXX! What a great kick!
Then he grabs the other one, hit on the face.
Bang! Spatter of nasal blood!
All this happens so quickly that when the two policemen come to their senses and rush up. The man has stood up straight, holding his head high, steps back carefully. He does not touch the police, just raises his eyebrows and shouting: “Why? I’m an officer! Don’t you dare to touch me a finger?”
After that, he looks at the policemen with arrogant.
The policeman is pushed staggered and is about to rush up in a rage. But he is pulled by his companion and whispers: “Forget about it. He’s an army man. We are not able to handle such a military officer.”
