"That's the truth, Brother Cao. There's a saying that makes a lot of sense: It's never too late for a gentleman to take revenge."

"Haha, that's right. A gentleman's revenge is never too late, that's a good saying."

Looking at Cao Jianjun who had fallen into a beautiful fantasy, Zhou Chen also felt helpless. Cao Jianjun was too entangled in this matter. He could be so happy with just a simple persuasion.

Cao Jianjun was in a good mood and pulled Zhou Chen to drink another glass.

"Zhou Chen, you are a very loyal boy. There are so many people in our institute, but you are the only one who accepted my invitation today. I, Cao Jianjun, will always remember this favor."

"Brother Cao, you are exaggerating. The main reason is that everyone else is on duty and very busy, and I am the only one who has less time."

"Ah."

Cao Jianjun sneered disdainfully and said, "Do they really think I know nothing? I don't have very good relationships with the people in the institute, but I'm not stupid. How can I not see what they are thinking?"

"They must think that I was lucky to receive the second-class merit, but they don't think about who is the most hardworking police officer in Balihe Police Station? It's me, Cao Jianjun."

"In their eyes, I, Cao Jianjun, am a person who loves to show off and is particularly flamboyant. Yes, that's right, I am such a person. What's wrong with that? I love to show off, but that's something I have earned through my own efforts. No one has the right to say that to me."

"I admit that in some ways, my actions were not authentic and excessive, but I really wanted to succeed and improve so much that I gradually became what I am now. But even so, I think I am much better than those people who just sit there doing nothing."

Cao Jianjun is quite popular in the police station, but his reputation is not very good, especially among the veteran police officers, who are not very close to him. This is due to his personality.

But how can I put it? No one is perfect. Cao Jianjun is not perfect, and he even has many shortcomings. But it is precisely this kind of Cao Jianjun that makes him more like a real person.

It was for this reason that Zhou Chen wanted to change Cao Jianjun's ending, and came over today to drink with him to ease his worries.

Cao Jianjun obviously vented his anger today. He pulled Zhou Chen to drink and talk non-stop. Intoxicated, he said everything he should and shouldn't say.

The meal lasted nearly three hours, and in the end Cao Jianjun couldn't even walk. If it weren't for Zhou Chen, he probably wouldn't have been able to even leave the private room.

Zhou Chen found a designated driver to take Cao Jianjun home and handed him over to his wife Zhou Hui personally.

It was also the first time he met Cao Jianjun's wife. She was in her thirties and very beautiful. Even when she saw Cao Jianjun so drunk, she just frowned and did not get angry. She was also very grateful to Zhou Chen for sending Cao Jianjun back.

When Zhou Chen returned home, Li Dawei and the others were all asleep. He did not disturb them and went straight upstairs to take a shower and go to bed.

The next morning, when Zhou Chen arrived at the police station, he was called over by the director Wang Shouyi.

"Did you go drinking with Cao Jianjun yesterday?" Wang Shouyi asked directly as soon as he came up.

"Yes, Chief."

"How dare you drink? Have you forgotten who you are? Cao Jianjun's wife Zhou Hui called just now and said that Cao Jianjun is still drunk and wants to take a day off. Cao Jianjun is a model worker in our institute and never takes the initiative to ask for leave. But he actually asked for leave this time. How much did you drink last night?"

"Not many, Chief, just a few bottles."

"Just a few bottles, white?"

"Ah."

Wang Shouyi slammed the table and said, "There are only a few bottles of white. Zhou Chen, you guys are so capable. Do you still have any discipline in your eyes?"

Zhou Chen said, "Brother Cao was in a good mood yesterday, so I drank with him. I sent Brother Cao back home, so he's fine. As for me, I'm fine too. Can you smell the alcohol on me?"

This is also what Wang Shouyi found strange. When Zhou Chen came in, he did not smell much alcohol.

"So how much did you drink?"

"Not much, two and a half pounds."

"Ahem, how much?"

"Two and a half kilograms."

Wang Shouyi didn't know what to say. Judging from Zhou Chen's expression, he didn't seem to be lying.

But he drank two and a half kilograms of white wine last night, and he was still energetic to go to work the next morning. Isn’t this alcohol tolerance a bit too exaggerated?

After a long silence, he said again: "Zhou Chen, you are still young, you should be moderate. Alcohol is not a good thing, so don't touch it in the future."

"Okay, director."

"Go."

Wang Shouyi, who originally wanted to ask something, was no longer in the mood. Zhou Chen drank two and a half kilograms, and Cao Jianjun probably drank not much less either. No wonder they were still drunk.

As soon as Zhou Chen arrived at his master Ye Wei's office, Ye Wei told him, "Zhou Chen, Xiao Wang in the Household Registration Department is a little busy. Go over there and help him out."

"Ok."

Zhou Chen came to the household registration department. Sister Wang, who was in charge of household registration, was pregnant, but fortunately there were several female auxiliary police officers and it would not affect the work. But today was a bit busy, so they asked him to go over to help.

With the help of Zhou Chen, the new force, the household registration hall soon became stable.

…………

Today is another busy day. At around eleven o'clock, the police officer Xiao Dou came to the office area and saw that only Zhou Chen, Xia Jie and a few auxiliary police officers were left.

"Zhou Chen, is there no one here? Has everyone called the police?"

"Yes, Sister Dou, everything is wrong. Did you receive another call to the police?"

"We just received a report from the Dongmen Vegetable Market, saying that there was a conflict at the market, and asked us to go and mediate as soon as possible."

Zhou Chen stood up and said, "I don't think it's a serious case. I'll take people there."

"Well, then please ask the instructor or the director."

"no problem."

Zhou Chen immediately told his master Ye Wei, received a positive response, and then prepared to set off.

"Brother Sun, Xiao Ding, let's go to the police station together."

"it is good."

Just as I was about to leave, Xia Jie also came over.

"I'll go as well."

Zhou Chen thought for a moment and asked, "Didn't Cheng arrange anything for you?"

"It's okay, I'll just call my master and tell him. I'll go with you."

"OK then."

When the group of four arrived at the vegetable market, they saw a group of people gathered together, making a lot of noise, and there were two women screaming inside.

"Make way. The police are investigating a case. Everyone, please disperse. Everyone, please disperse. Stop standing here to watch the fun."

Sun Qiancheng and Xiao Ding dispersed the crowd and saw the two women still arguing.

Zhou Chen walked over: "What happened? Who called the police?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a short middle-aged man walked out of the crowd.

"Comrade police, comrade police, I called the police. I am the manager of this market. They have been quarreling here for a long time, which has seriously affected our work. That's why I had to call the police and let you handle it."

Zhou Chen nodded, and Xia Jie asked about the man's identity and took notes.

Seeing the police, the two women stopped arguing. Zhou Chen walked up to them. One of the women was in her forties and the other was around thirty years old. They were with a little boy of about three years old.

"Ladies, why are you arguing? Don't you know that you have seriously affected others?"

The woman with the child pursed her lips and didn't say anything. Then the middle-aged woman in her forties who looked a bit tough started yelling.

"Comrade police officer, please judge for yourself. I was just buying groceries when this little bastard suddenly hit me with his electric bike and hit my legs, almost knocking me down. Look at my legs, they are still red."

Zhou Chen looked down and found that there was indeed a red mark on the woman's leg, but he did not respond immediately. Instead, he looked at the mother with the child.

The woman with the child said truthfully: "Hello, police comrade, my name is Zhang Yue. This was indeed our fault at the beginning. I didn't do it well. I didn't turn off the electric bike when I was buying vegetables, so the child accidentally twisted the handle and hit her. But I apologized at the time and said that if she felt it was wrong, I could take her to the hospital for a check-up, but she didn't agree and cursed at my son. The curses were particularly ugly. I couldn't help but argue with her a few times, and then it became like this."

"Is an apology enough? You still need to go to the hospital for a checkup. I need your money. You didn't raise your child well. I didn't teach him well. I helped you teach him. What's wrong with me scolding him? Scolding him is still a light punishment. Parents like you deserve to be scolded. You can't even take care of your own child. Why did you give birth to him? You can tell at a glance that he is an undisciplined brat."

"What did you say? Say it again. Why do you say that our family doesn't have a tutor? You have a tutor. I think you are a shrew. You will bite anyone you catch."

"What's wrong with me biting you? You deserve it. Looking at the way your child behaves, I know your parents are not much better."

"you……"

My goodness, before they could even say a few words, the two women started arguing again. Zhou Chen quickly asked Sun Qiancheng and Xiao Ding to separate them.

"You two, let's talk it out. It's so ugly to quarrel in public, right?"

"Comrade police officer, I didn't mean to argue with her. She was just going too far. Look at what she just said. Before you came, she cursed even worse."

"Did I curse you? You should curse me. You failed as a mother for raising such a naughty child. Police officer, she will just pretend to be pitiful. Don't believe her."

The two women refused to give in to each other and each insisted that they were right. Even when they were pulled apart, they refused to give in.

Zhou Chen looked calm. In fact, the matter was very simple and he heard it very clearly. It was just a small matter, but the points of both parties were different.

Wang Ying, the woman who was hit, felt that she was the victim, and there was nothing wrong with saying a few words to the naughty kid.

But as a mother, Zhang Yue felt that her child had made a mistake, but she had already apologized and was willing to pay compensation, which could be said to be very sincere. However, Wang Ying became more and more aggressive, scolding her more and more harshly, and even pulled her, which made her unbearable.

So, although she was originally feeling apologetic, after seeing her child being scolded and crying, she could no longer tolerate it and started to quarrel with Wang Ying.

Neither of them would give in, and the argument became more and more intense and fierce, so it became such a big commotion that even the police were called.

"Sister Wang, Ms. Zhang, let's be calm and talk slowly. It's just a small matter, there's no need to make such a big fuss..."

In fact, it is not a big deal. The child’s behavior is very bad, but it is definitely not intentional. After all, he is only three years old.

Wang Ying was definitely right at the beginning, but what she did after being hit was indeed too much. She not only scolded the adults, but also the children, and her scolding was very unpleasant. This should not be allowed.

As a mother, Zhang Yue would be fine if she was scolded, but when her child was wronged, she naturally would not give in, so she quarreled with Wang Ying.

Zhang Yue and her son made mistakes first, but Zhang Yue is also polite and well-mannered. Wang Ying was right, but the way she handled the situation was really bad, so both sides had problems and there was no absolute right or wrong.

This time, Zhou Chen fully learned the skills of Director Wang Shouyi and kept persuading the two women. Although he did not have Wang Shouyi's ability to change his face like a smiling tiger, his talking skills were not much worse. Under his gentle persuasion, Wang Ying and Zhang Yue slowly calmed down and no longer fought each other like before.

Once the two parties calmed down, the matter was naturally much easier to handle. Both parties apologized to each other, and Zhang Yue apologized again on behalf of her son, and the matter was resolved on the spot.

I have had cervical spondylosis these days, it is really killing me, I feel dizzy all the time, no medicine is of any use...

Chapter 1044 Beating up the scum

The October night was very cool. Zhou Chen saw Xia Jie sitting in the yard on the first floor, wrapped in clothes, staring at the starry sky, as if in a daze.

"What are you thinking about?"

Xia Jie was awakened by Zhou Chen. She tightened her clothes and said, "I'm thinking about my mother. She went to Dali for a trip. I don't know how she is now."

Zhou Chen smiled and said, "You are really a person who worries a lot. You worry when your mother is at home, and you still worry when she is not at home."

Xia Jie rolled her eyes: "That's my mother. If I don't care, who will care?"

"You are right, but have you used the method I taught you before?"

"Uh."

Xia Jie looked embarrassed. She had used the method Zhou Chen taught her in front of her master Cheng Hao, but she could never bring herself to do it in front of her own mother. The most she could do was to move out, but there was nothing more to it.

"You are still too kind and too foolishly filial."

Zhou Chen was not surprised. Having been with Xia Jie for such a long time, he naturally understood what kind of person Xia Jie was. If she could be so cruel to her own mother, she would not be Xia Jie.

Xia Jie quickly changed the subject: "Why haven't Li Dawei and Zhao Jiwei come back yet so late?"

"It seems Zhao Jiwei has a case to follow up. I don't know what Yang Shu and his master are doing. As for Li Dawei, I don't know."

Zhao Jiwei is a workaholic. As long as there is a case for him to work on, he will not even sleep. Yang Shu is not that hardworking, but his master Cao Jianjun is hardworking, which forces him to be busy.

Xia Jie curled up in the chair, hugged her knees with her hands, and stared at Zhou Chen.

"Zhou Chen, I really envy you."

"Envy me? Envy me for being alone? Or envy me for having money and a house?"

Xia Jie replied unhappily: "I envy your good attitude. We were obviously sent to the police station together, but you have already received the second-class merit, while I still need Master's care all the time and often make mistakes. I am really useless."

Seeing her depressed, Zhou Chen comforted her: "It's not as exaggerated as you say. You didn't do anything wrong. It's just that you lack experience. After all, I am one year older than you. I grew up in the countryside, so I am very thick-skinned. As for winning the award, it was just luck."

"Humph, you just know how to tease me. You're the only one who can say you're lucky to get a second-class merit."

"You know what, I really like to coax you. With your silly look, I can coax you for the rest of my life."

Xia Jie, who was originally in a low mood, turned red in the face when she heard this and glared at Zhou Chen angrily.

"If you dare to laugh at me, I will beat you to death."

As she spoke, her hand fell on Zhou Chen, but Zhou Chen grabbed her hand and looked at her with burning eyes. Xia Jie was so frightened that her heart was pounding and she dodged.
