"To be honest, from what I feel, the owners who are here today are all here because they couldn't bear it. Who doesn't want to huddle under the bed in this cold weather? You are used to getting up early every day to buy groceries, but

You have to think about others! Just because

You are alone in your private life, leaving everyone unable to rest... Let me put it bluntly, someone called the police today. If I had encountered someone who was unreasonable, they would not have called 110, but would have just punched you.

To be fair, what should we do then?"

Chen Lanying's eyelids twitched when she heard this. She was indeed frightened. She couldn't help but tremble, but she refused to admit defeat and stammered: "...He...he dares! Who dares to touch me?"

, I...I will go to the hospital for a full body check-up and let him support me for the rest of my life."

Hu Pingtao had seen similar situations many times, so he sneered: "Do you think this kind of thing is effective? Rabbits bite people when they are anxious, not to mention that you were wrong in this matter. You can't listen to people trying to reason with you.

He is careless when fighting, has no sense, let alone calmness. His fists and feet have no eyesight, and his strikes have no weight."

"Aunt Chen, how old are you this year? Do you think you can withstand a punch? Once you become paraplegic or something, you will have to lie in bed or be in a wheelchair and cannot even stand up. What do you think?

No matter how much money you have to support you for the rest of your life, is it interesting?"

Chen Lanying's entire face turned pale: "I...I...I mean..."

Hu Pingtao interrupted him again without politeness: "Don't mean anything, just listen to what I have to say first. Don't think that when you get old, you can rely on your old age to live up to your old age. Everyone has to let you go.

I have said all the good and bad things, I hope you can think about it carefully. You know the rules and regulations, and the community has its own rules. Aunt Chen, you have been here, and you are making things difficult for the property management of the community. In the end, people will change.

The method will make things difficult for you."

"If you insist on walking into the community and people continue to call the police, then I can only follow the procedures - notify your original employer, notify your home, and then fine you."

"Now they are all electronic accounts. If you refuse to pay the fine, we will deduct it directly from the bank account."

"I didn't mean to scare you by provoking troubles just now. If you refuse to repent and the owners of the community continue to call the police, then I can only deal with the matter. If you should be detained, you should be jailed."

"Pretending to be sick and dead is of no use to us. Prisons and detention centers will teach you what justice and law are."

"Finally, if this matter gets serious, it will have a bad impact on your children and grandchildren. Especially the political review... Aunt Chen, you should know the national policies very well, otherwise you would not be able to say "the land belongs to the country." So.

Whichever way you go, I hope you can make the right choice."

…

On the way back to the institute, Meng Hui smiled while driving: "Director, you handled this matter very well today."

Hu Pingtao heard something in his words, so he smiled and asked: "Why, is there any other way to deal with it?"

Meng Hui nodded: "I have stayed in the station for a long time. I was there when you first came here, when you were still an auxiliary police officer. I have dealt with similar disputes with the old instructor before. He mainly tried to persuade, not

Like you, a slap in the face and a date, a two-pronged approach... Hahahaha, I was just joking, nothing else."

Hu Pingtao knew that the "old instructor" Meng Hui mentioned was Chen Xinhong, the former instructor at the police station: "Then do you agree with the old instructor, or do you agree with my handling method?"

"Of course it's you." Meng Hui replied without thinking: "Director Chen is a bit rigid in formality and will not punish anyone if he can. You are different. You cut through the mess quickly and neatly."

Hu Pingtao explained with a smile: "Actually, Director Chen's previous actions cannot be said to be wrong. The improvement of our country's legal system takes time. Take picking quarrels and provoking troubles as an example, it has a very wide scope of application. As for today's matter, it is directly

It would be fine to arrest Chen Lanying. But the problem is that she is old. If something happens to her in the detention center, it will be difficult for everyone."

Meng Hui nodded in understanding: "So you just lectured her verbally to let her understand the powerful relationship?"

Hu Pingtao said: "How many old ladies have you seen who can say "the land belongs to the country"? People like Chen Lanying, even if they are not retired civil servants, at least have worked in public institutions. People,

Everyone likes to rely on their elders to show off, but it is different for those who really understand the truth. As long as official business is done, she is more afraid than anyone else. So when it comes to fines and detention, she immediately gets scared."

Meng Hui laughed: "Director, you are just prescribing the right medicine!"

…

At three o'clock in the afternoon, I received another call from the command center.

Hu Pingtao took Meng Hui to a residential area next to Guankou Village.

As long as it is a mid- to low-end residential area, there will definitely be a teahouse nearby. This seems to have become a common practice.

The law explicitly prohibits gambling, but it does not prohibit playing mahjong.

The same provisions apply to poker - you can play double buckle, landlord fight, kitten fishing, bridge, hoeing... The prerequisite must be for entertainment and recreation and cannot involve gambling.

Anyone who likes to play mahjong knows that the so-called "hygienic mahjong" is actually a cover-up to deceive oneself and an open joke.

When we arrived at the scene, there were a lot of people gathered there, including men, women, and children. Standing in the middle of the scene was a middle-aged man in his fifties. There were obvious scratches on his knees and cuffs, and the surface was covered with dirt.

Opposite was a middle-aged woman who seemed to be in her thirties, and she was protecting a child behind her.

When he walked into the crowd, Hu Pingtao paid special attention to the child - he was not very old, probably about seven years old. He was wearing a set of old children's clothing. His hair was a little long, and there was dirt everywhere on his body.

It was obvious that he had fallen or was lying on the ground.

The most striking feature on the child's face is that the left eye is black and blue, and the left cheek is also swollen. At first glance, it looks like he has mumps.

Meng Hui leaned into Hu Pingtao's ear and whispered: "Director, look at those eyes...has this child been beaten? If he hits him again on the right side, it will be symmetrical. He looks like a panda!"

Of course this was a joke. Meng Hui knew the rules and kept his volume very low so that the people next to him could not hear it.

Hu Pingtao was a little funny in his heart, but he couldn't show it on the outside at this time. He stood in the field, looked at the people around him, and asked according to the procedure: "Who called the police? What happened?"

The woman immediately opened her mouth and replied: "I hit 110."

As she said that, she raised her finger and pointed at the middle-aged man standing opposite, with anger on her face: "He beat my son. Officer, look, my son is only seven and a half years old, and he beat him like this... What are you doing now?"

Just arrest him! Arrest him!"

The middle-aged man was anxious: "Hey, why do you cut off the ends of your words? Yes, I did hit the person, but how about the score? I like to hit children when I'm full and have nothing to hold on to, right?

?Why don’t you tell me what your precious son has done?”

Without thinking, the woman opened her mouth and spat at the other side: "Bah! Do you want to be shameless? Bully the small with your big one... If you have the ability to fight other men with real swords and guns! Or go to the zoo and get into the tiger cage.

, let’s see if the tiger is more powerful or you are more powerful?”

The middle-aged man was thick-skinned and refused to accept this trick at all. He retorted: "Why don't you go in? That tiger is a male. He will definitely like you when he sees a female in the cage. If you spend more time with the tiger in the cage, he will be pregnant when he comes out.

, how wonderful it would be to have a few more tiger cubs!"

He was unforgiving, and then he changed his target to the boy next to the woman, and cursed viciously: "This is just a little bastard. I don't know where you got together with a wild man. You are a mother, but you are not a mother."

Teach me, if you are not sensible or polite, I will beat you every time I see you from now on."

The woman became anxious and screamed: "How dare you!"

The middle-aged man was offended, and his face was full of anger: "Believe it or not, I will beat you too?"

Hu Pingtao couldn't stand listening anymore. He raised his finger to the middle-aged man and opened his mouth to stop him: "You are very brave! You keep saying that you want to beat and kill in front of the police. Who do you think you are?"

The gangster brother or the head of state? Let me tell you, the cost of fighting is high, either lose money or go to jail, which one do you choose?"

After being sprayed by him like this, the man suddenly became timid and his body was shortened by half. He quickly changed his tone and said nonchalantly: "...I, I just said it casually, I can't take it seriously...Um, officer, I feel like this

I really can’t get over it! Listen to me and let me talk to you carefully, and you can comment on it!”

"My name is Wei Jinyuan, and her name is Yuan Meihua. When we have nothing to do, we all play mahjong in the tea room. After we play more often, we get to know each other and become mahjong friends."

"There is definitely a winner or loser in playing mahjong, which depends on skill and luck. As the saying goes: Luck comes but it cannot be stopped. Nine points of luck and one point of skill, no matter who it is."

Hu Pingtao lowered his head and took notes while asking: "What do you do?"

Wei Jinyuan was stunned for a moment, and then replied: "I used to work in a public institution, and then I quit."

Hu Pingtao nodded: "Go on."

Wei Jinyuan raised his finger and pointed at Yuan Meihua, who was standing opposite: "She is from out of town. Her husband usually drives a taxi. She often comes here to play mahjong when she has nothing to do. Today is the weekend and the school is not in class, so she came here with her children."

"A place like the teahouse is always busy with people coming and going. There are three rooms, a total of eight tables, and more than a dozen people sit down, all to play cards. Yuan Meihua has never brought her children here before, but today, everyone is still here

It was very honorable to her, and I even bought two lollipops for him, but I didn’t expect that he would eat this little brat inside and out.”

When Yuan Meihua heard this, she became angry and cursed: "You fart! What do you mean eating inside and outside? What does my son and I have to do with you?"

Wei Jinyuan was very wary of Hu Pingtao who was standing next to him. He snorted at Yuan Meihua: "I won't argue with you. Now that the police are here, I will only tell them."

He turned to Hu Pingtao and continued: "Officer, you don't know, her child is really indescribable. After she came here today, she ran around, jumping back and forth in three rooms, either knocking over other people's tea, or pushing down chairs.

.It went back and forth for most of the day, like a blowfly."

Wei Jinyuan pointed at the teahouse owner standing in the crowd: "If you don't believe me, ask Lao Li, he opened the teahouse. Are you asking everyone, did I say nonsense?"

Suddenly there was a flurry of agreement from all around.

"Old Wei really didn't talk nonsense. This son, Xiao Yuan, is really shameless. He is so noisy."

"If you ask me, let's just play cards. Why did she bring the child here? Isn't this just looking for trouble? Now it's fine, the police are here, no one can play anymore."

"Not to mention Lao Wei, I have been holding back and not taking action. I also have sons and grandsons, and I have never seen them make trouble like this."

"Don't tell me, Lao Wei said before that this child is a bastard, and I quite agree with it. A bastard is used to being wild, so what is he if he isn't a bastard? Hahahaha..."

Yuan Meihua's face turned red, and she argued angrily: "There are only two people at home, my baby and I. There is no school today, so I can only take him with me. What's wrong with him running and jumping? Children are like this, what's wrong?"

Wei Jinyuan frowned and asked loudly: "You brought your child to play, and we didn't say a weird thing at the beginning! But think about it for yourself, what did your son do?"

As he said that, he turned to Hu Pingtao, looking very aggrieved and annoyed: "Officer, there were four of us playing mahjong at the same table. Her son was watching everyone's cards. At that time, she was sitting opposite me, and my boss was Lao Wang.

, the next one is Aunt Zhao. Her son is counting the cards while looking at them."

"After seeing Lao Wang's cards, he opened his mouth and said: Mom, this grandpa has a nine-piece."
