Seeing the police approach, Lu Fan was slightly startled. He hadn't expected Li San to be so bold as to call the police after blocking the road and assaulting people. What the heck...
The onlookers, seeing the police arrive, inexplicably retreated further.
"Director Zhao! It's this kid. He beat all of us. Now that they're all injured, quickly arrest this kid!" Li Jiping was overjoyed at the sight of the police and hurried to meet them. He then led a fat, pot-bellied policeman to Lu Fan and pointed at him.
"You've got some nerve, haven't you? Daring to get into a brawl in broad daylight! Let's go, come inside and explain yourself!" The fat Director Zhao glanced at Lu Fan and said casually, his eyes clearly showing disdain.
"Director Zhao! Don't you... want to understand the situation?" Lu Fan asked with a slight frown.
"Is there anything else to understand? Looking at the scene, it's all too clear! You injured five people and still want to deny it?" Director Zhao said, his expression turning cold.
The surrounding police officers clearly feared Director Zhao. They seemed to want to speak but held back, standing behind him.
"Director Zhao! Thank you for your hard work! The medical expenses for my brothers..." Li Jiping glanced smugly at Lu Fan and pulled out a cigarette, offering it to Director Zhao.
"If you've injured someone, you naturally have to pay for their treatment. Not only treatment, but you'll also be detained!"
Director Zhao said this while taking the cigarette and placing it in his mouth. Li Jiping immediately produced a pure copper lighter. With a crisp click, a small blue flame shot up. He bowed obsequiously, lighting Director Zhao's cigarette.
Director Zhao took a satisfying puff of his cigarette, then suddenly looked at the lighter in Li Jiping's hand, a hint of greed flashing in his eyes. "This lighter is nice!"
"Director Zhao! If you like it, it's yours! I was just afraid you wouldn't!" Li Jiping quickly chuckled and slipped the lighter into Director Zhao's pocket.
"Damn your ancestors!" Lu Fan cursed inwardly. This was too obvious. Even an idiot could see that Director Zhao and Li San had an unusual relationship. It seemed unlikely he could get away with this easily today.
Hmph! Director Zhao's bloated belly must be directly proportional to his actions! What method should I use? Lu Fan's mind raced, and a sly smile appeared on his lips.
"Kid! Which village are you from? Do you want to settle this privately or officially?" Director Zhao finally turned to Lu Fan and asked indifferently.
"Heh heh! Director Zhao! I'm from Twelve Gully Village! I came to town on some business. These guys blocked me and without a word, tried to beat me. Look at those clubs, they were all from them..."
"Stop with the nonsense. You're the one who injured people now! A life for a life, a debt for a debt, it's only natural. If you injure someone, you have to pay for their treatment!" Director Zhao interrupted Lu Fan impatiently, speaking somewhat irritably.
"Alright! Then let's stop the nonsense!" Lu Fan sneered inwardly. With a thought, two streams of energy flowed into his fingertips. *Snap, snap...* He flicked them towards Director Zhao's Guanyuan and Qihai acupoints.
While he was thinking of a plan, a small trick from the Shennong Jue suddenly appeared in his mind. He had hesitated whether to use it or not. Hmph! Seeing Director Zhao's attitude, there was really no need to be polite. However, this was also a form of treatment, and I wasn't doing anything wrong! Heh heh! Heh heh!
Lu Fan couldn't help but laugh inwardly!
"Huh?" Director Zhao suddenly felt as if he had been hit by something, but...
"Hey! You can still smile at a time like this? Hurry up and say it, what do you want? Money or detention!" Li Jiping next to him yelled, seeing Lu Fan still smiling faintly.
"Don't rush! I'll find you later! I still have something to ask you!" Lu Fan pouted. He hadn't even asked who this kid sold his wild chickens to yet! Hmph!
"Oh... oh! No, I... I need to go to the restroom first!" Suddenly, Director Zhao's stomach rumbled, and then he clutched his stomach and rushed into a small restaurant nearby.
A moment later, a series of *bang... bang... bang...* sounds came from the small restaurant, and then everyone inside ran out, covering their noses.
"What the hell... causing such a commotion?"
"Damn it! You chased away the few customers I finally had in my restaurant!" The restaurant owner was almost in tears.
"Heh heh! Hahaha! This method really works!" Lu Fan laughed heartily. Alright! Let me see what other tricks I have for tormenting people.
*Thump thump... thump thump...* The sounds from the small restaurant's restroom kept coming. Soon, the stench wafted out from the windows. Everyone immediately dodged away. Those who were lying on the ground also got up and crawled to the side.
"Director Zhao... Director Zhao... are you alright?" Li Jiping called out, covering his nose.
"Paper... paper... bring me some paper, damn it! What kind of restaurant is this, not having paper in the restroom!" Director Zhao's roar came from inside the restaurant.
Li Jiping was immediately distressed. He ran to the nearby convenience store, bought a pack of paper, stuffed his nostrils, covered his mouth, and ran in. He then ran out quickly. After coming out, he gagged. This caused everyone to move further away again.
After a while, Director Zhao emerged from the restaurant with two wads of paper stuffed in his nostrils. However, it was clear that his stomach had shrunk a bit.
"Director Zhao!" Li Jiping greeted him with a distressed look.
"Take this kid back with me!" Director Zhao, feeling somewhat embarrassed, shouted at the police officers and then headed towards the police station.
Several police officers immediately approached.
"Heh heh! Officer! I'll come myself, I still have an electric bike!" Lu Fan quickly ran over, pushed his electric bike, and followed them.
The town wasn't large. The police station was about fifty meters ahead. Lu Fan was directly taken into the police station. Of course, Li Jiping and the others were also brought in.
The police station wasn't large. Except for the director's office, which was separate, everyone else seemed to work together. Several desks were arranged in the room.
"The director is back! I've brewed you some fresh tea." A sweet-sounding voice came, and Lu Fan looked over. He saw a rather attractive policewoman holding a cup of tea, presenting it to Director Zhao with great diligence.
Lu Fan's eyes were sharp. He saw that the teacup contained not only tea leaves but also a few goji berries and a small piece of ginseng.
"Heh heh! Heh heh! Director Zhao and this young policewoman have quite a relationship!" Lu Fan chuckled slyly.
