“It’s me.”

A woman squeezed out of the crowd. It was Ning Yan, whom Lin Fan had helped untangle wires earlier in the morning.

At this moment, she stood there, still looking cautious, but in Lin Fan’s eyes, she was shining all over.

“Comrades, let me explain. Lin Fan says that Li Wei owes him money and hasn’t paid it back. There are even military district insignia on top of that. A couple of days ago, Lin Fan and her husband had a big fight, and they almost jumped into the river to end it all! Now Lin Fan came to his doorstep to collect the debt, and she got beaten up instead. You guys have to intervene in this matter!”

Ning Yan looked indignant, as if she had a close relationship with Lin Fan, constantly speaking up for him. Then everyone’s attention shifted to Ning Yan.

Two police officers glanced at the crowd, and Ning Yan felt that the pressure had eased considerably.

Feng Li frowned upon hearing this but remained silent.

Seeing the police officers, Lin Fan burst into tears and said, “Comrades, it’s this Li Wei here. He used the trust between friends to swindle my money. If it were my own money, I could let it go, but it’s my husband’s hard-earned money!”

“By the way, my husband’s name is Yan Shun, and he serves as a Company Commander in the military district. Everyone here can vouch that I’m not lying.”

“There are also benefits provided by the military district for soldiers, 800 yuan, and various purchase vouchers. These were just stored in my house, and I accidentally let it slip. He took everything, even daring to touch military property. You have to stand up for a military family like me!”

Lin Fan quickly immersed herself in the role, shedding tears and portraying herself as the victim, momentarily leaving Li Wei and Feng Li stunned.

But Li Wei soon reacted, his anger skyrocketing. He wanted to slap Lin Fan but refrained due to his wounds, exclaiming in pain, “Officers, please don’t listen to her nonsense! There was no 800 yuan inside, and she willingly gave it to me!”

The crowd sighed in sympathy.

“That was something from the military district! Li Wei actually dared to covet it. Even if Lin Fan accidentally let it slip, he shouldn’t have asked for it!”

“Yeah, taking something from the military district can get you in prison.”

“Li Wei wouldn’t be unaware of this, right?”

“We even have IOUs. How can it be considered voluntary giving?”

The words of the people around made Li Wei’s face turn red. He suddenly realized that not only had he let something slip, but everyone also seemed to believe those IOUs more than him. He could not help but feel resentful towards Lin Fan. “You… You deceived me?”

Lin Fan smiled. People cannot stay rational in chaotic situations.

“Officers, listen to this. He just admitted to cheating me out of money,” Lin Fan seized the opportunity and did not want to make it easy for Li Wei to get off just by repaying her money. “And, in the first place, it was Li Wei who approached me!”

“Everyone knows that the military district allowed the Provincial Theater Troupe to perform once, and soldiers were allowed to bring their families. When he needed help, who did he choose? He chose me. Wasn’t it premeditated?” Lin Fan was determined to pin the blame on Li Wei, especially someone like him, who relied on women to make a living. This guy did not deserve sympathy!

“Lin Fan’s words seem to make sense!”

“Now that you mention it, it does seem like that. Li Wei must have thought Lin Fan was easy to deceive, so he approached her!”

Various speculations flowed from people’s mouths again. Two police officers could not bear it any longer. One tall officer shouted, “That’s enough, we probably understand the situation. Everyone can disperse now. We will bring the relevant individuals to the police station, and we will definitely get to the bottom of this!”

Li Wei’s face had turned dark because of the comments around him, but now, upon hearing they were going to the police station, he suddenly felt relieved.

Going to the police station felt like being interrogated in public, and he had already lost face.

“The officers are right!” Li Wei hurriedly agreed.

Seeing Li Wei’s attitude towards going to the police station change so drastically, Lin Fan gave a cold laugh. She did not care, anyway. Li Wei couldn’t escape.

At the police station.

Li Wei and Feng Li sat together, facing two civilian police officers. Lin Fan sat on the other side of the coffee table.

“I’m Chen Fang, and this is Yuan Guo. We’ve applied to handle your case. You don’t need to be too reserved. Tell us the whole story, so we can understand who’s right and who’s wrong.” Chen Fang introduced himself and his colleague to the three.

Lin Fan smiled at them. “Officers, listen to me. Li Wei did indeed swindle something from me that belonged to the military district. It definitely had the military district’s emblem on it.”
