Detective: Open your eyes, I am handcuffed in the interrogation room.

Chapter 546 Beaten Again
Today is the weekend.

But Qingshi Middle School has no weekends, only national holidays.

With preconceived negative perceptions, Chen Yi even felt that it was quite humane for a school with such strict rules to the point of being abnormal to even give students a holiday.

Even if it works 365 days a year, there is nothing strange about it.

It was very quiet along the way, so quiet that it was eerie. Apart from the tattooed security guard at the door and the worker who was repairing the barbed wire, I didn't see anyone else.

It was not until I approached the teaching building that I heard the familiar sound of lectures.

So far, the two felt that the school atmosphere was pretty good, but last night's beating showed that the real situation inside the school was not as simple as it seemed on the surface.

Passing by the first floor, I can see that the classroom discipline is very good.

What is good is that no one is whispering or making trouble, but no one is seen studying either. Everyone has their heads down, immersed in their own world, as if the teacher on the podium does not exist at all.

The teacher ignored us and just kept talking about his own things. There was no interaction between teachers and students in several classes, let alone asking questions in class.

Meng Yi saw this and said, "It cannot be said that public schools are necessarily better than private schools, but most private schools are like this. They are mainly for profit, and students' academic performance is secondary. It is enough to have a place to study. The enrollment rate is extremely low."

Chen Yi hummed, "Yes, there are several private middle schools in Yangcheng that are quite good. They have a strong learning atmosphere and their enrollment rates are among the highest in the city. However, the tuition is a bit high, not less than 50,000 yuan a year, and there is a grade threshold."

Meng Yi: "When my children grow up, I will still prefer private schools."

Chen Yi: “Each has its own advantages and disadvantages.”

As we were talking, we arrived at the office building, but still didn't see anyone.

Maybe it's class time now, and the teachers are either in the classroom or in the office.

The tattooed man said that the principal's office was on the third floor. The two of them went straight up to the third floor and stood at the door of the room with a sign that read "Principal's Office".

Meng Yi was about to knock on the door, but Chen Yi stopped him and put his ear close to the door to listen.

There was movement inside.

A man and a woman, the man is laughing and the woman is impatient.

Chen Yi took hold of the door handle and twisted it gently, only to find it was locked. He took a step back and was about to make a move when Meng Yi reached out and whispered, "You have a special identity, don't do anything rash, or someone will catch you. I'll do it."

After saying that, he took a step back and kicked hard.

bump!
The door lock was not very sturdy and the lock cylinder connection broke immediately.

Meng Yi rushed in immediately and found a man and a woman sitting on the sofa. The man was about fifty years old and the woman was very young, probably less than twenty, or even less than eighteen.

This must be a student from the school. She is very beautiful.

Even Meng Yi, who has been in nightclubs for many years and has seen many women, has to say that she is beautiful.

Mainly because of her pure temperament.

When he rushed in, the man was touching the girl, but he was frightened by the sudden loud noise and quickly withdrew his hands.

"Old man, it's a good thing I kicked the door in." Meng Yi's face turned cold.

There is a bottom line in the entertainment business. He will never force others to do anything. You give up your dignity and come to work for me. I will give you money. It is completely voluntary.

He has always despised those who force women, especially... this kind of person.

"You... who are you? How did you get in?!"

The man stood up suddenly, shocked and angry, and the fat on his face made him look even more wretched.

The girl was also frightened. She wanted to run but didn't dare. She huddled there, looking at Chen Yi and the other man timidly like a frightened deer.

Meng Yi pointed at the man and said, "What were you doing just now? Huh?!"

"Talk to students...what the hell does it have to do with you? Who the hell are you?" the man cursed.

"Ah."

Meng Yi sneered and was about to step forward when Chen Yi asked, "What's your name?"

He was asking the girl.

"Ah?" The girl answered subconsciously, "My name is Guan Xinmei."

Chen Yi: "What was he doing just now?"

The girl waved her hands repeatedly: "Nothing, nothing, I just haven't been in a good mood lately, and the principal is trying to enlighten me."

Seeing this, Chen Yi waved: "Come out with me."

Watching Chen Yi leave the room, the girl hesitated, but finally stood up.

"Don't move!" Meng Yi glared at the man, "If you dare to move, I'll make you pay!"

Outside.

Chen Yi revealed his identity as a police officer and asked the girl again what had happened, but she gave the same answer.

enlighten.

Talk heartily.

no others.

Chen Yi said patiently: "If you are bullied, you must speak up. I promise that the result will not be what you worry about. Hiding the truth will only encourage the bad guys, and you will be the one who suffers in the end."

The girl bit her lip hard and shook her head: "Really not, thank you...thank you, police uncle, I have to go to class now."

After saying that, she left quickly.

Chen Yi didn't chase her or call her, but frowned.

Back in the room, the man was so shocked by Meng Yi's momentum that he dared not move. Seeing that Chen Yi, who seemed to be easy to talk to, came, he spoke: "What on earth are you doing? This is a school. If you damage the door, you must pay compensation. It is illegal to enter someone else's home without permission."

Meng Yi snorted coldly: "Is this your home?"

The man said: "The school is mine, so of course my home is mine."

Chen Yi motioned to Meng Yi to sit down first and take things one step at a time without rushing.

When the ID was shown, the man became more obedient and muttered, "The police can't kick the door, can they knock? After all, the office is a private place."

Meng Yi stared at him and said, "I'm not a policeman. I kicked the door. We can settle our accounts later."

The man glanced at Meng Yi and quickly looked away. This guy was obviously not someone to be trifled with. He looked like a gangster, but for some reason he was with the police.

Very strange combination.

"Let's get down to business." Chen Yi seemed to have forgotten what happened with the girl just now. "What's your name?"

Man: "Kou Chaoyi."

Chen Yi: "Principal Kou, Du Xun is a student of your school, right?"

The man nodded: "Yes, he is."

Chen Yi took out the hospital bill and recounted what happened in the Internet cafe last night. His request was simple: notify the parents of the attacker and ask them to pay and apologize in person.

Kou Chaoyi readily agreed: "Okay, I understand. I will definitely deal with this matter seriously and make them apologize."

Chen Yi: "Not later, but now. I paid the money in advance, and I want to get it today."

Kou Chaoyi: "Then I'll give it to you first. I'll ask the parents of the attacker for it later. Show me the payment code."

Chen Yi looked at him and didn't move.

"Payment code, officer." Kou Chaoyi urged.

This is not a normal way of handling things. How can one pay for it oneself? It is obvious that they want the police to leave quickly.

Meng Yi also saw it and said, "Why are you in such a hurry to let us go? You should call all four of them over, call their parents immediately, and deal with it face to face.

Du Xun was beaten and his face was covered in blood, do you think this is a small matter? "

Kou Chaoyi was puzzled: "Isn't it just compensation and an apology? The school will take care of it, you can rest assured."

Meng Yi: "Why are you talking so much nonsense? Call the people over first."

Of course, the two of them couldn't have come here to ask for money. Chen Yi also said last night that they came to see the situation.

If there are any non-compliance issues, you need to contact the relevant departments for rectification.

Furthermore, I have already discovered that the old man in front of me is suspected of indecent assault, and I can't get away with this.

"This..." Kou Chaoyi looked at Chen Yi, and after confirming that the police also meant the same thing, he stood up helplessly, "Okay, then I'll call the person over."

He was about to leave when Chen Yi stopped him and said, "Wait a minute, tell me your class and name, and I'll go call them."

These words made Kou Chaoyi's face change slightly.

"No, no, no need to trouble the police comrade, I'll be back soon, very quickly."

After saying that, he quickened his pace.

Chen Yi gave Meng Yi a look, and the latter immediately stood up and intercepted Kou Chaoyi when he was about to leave the office. He grabbed his shoulder affectionately and said, "Principal Kou, you must be tired after walking a few steps. You should sit here with me and tell me your name and class."

When Kou Chaoyi came into close contact with Meng Yi, he began to feel that his personal safety was out of his control.

Maybe it's not an illusion.

"I... I don't know who those three people are. I have to go ask them." Kou Chaoyi swallowed.

Meng Yi turned around.

Chen Yi said, "Just tell me which class Du Xun is in, and I'll go ask Du Xun." Kou Chaoyi had no choice but to tell Du Xun's class number, and then sat back at Meng Yi's friendly invitation.

After Chen Yi left, Meng Yi pulled the ashtray on the coffee table closer and lit a cigarette.

Smoke rose up, and he looked at Kou Chaoyi and said, "You are really capable. You escaped unscathed back then, and now you have founded Qingshi. Why haven't you learned your lesson yet?"

Kou Chaoyi didn't understand: "What do you mean?"

Meng Yi: "Why are you playing dumb? To be honest, I'm surprised that the parents of those disabled students didn't skin you alive."

Kou Chaoyi was unhappy: "What are you talking about? I helped them discipline their rebellious children, they should thank me. Those students who jumped off the building did it on their own, I didn't force them to do it.

Besides, it was a good thing that he jumped in school, the floor was not high, if he had jumped at home, he would have definitely died.”

These words made Meng Yi stunned for a moment. He raised his hand and threw the cigarette over. Kou Chaoyi was unable to dodge, and the cigarette butt with sparks hit his face and almost fell into his clothes.

He hurriedly picked up the cigarette butt and angrily said, "What are you doing!"

Meng Yi laughed angrily: "You are so shameless, you are on par with the Thunder King of Yicheng. I heard that he is now paralyzed on one side of his body. I think you will be too."

Kou Chaoyi snorted coldly: "He is a lunatic, I am not like him... What are you doing with the ashtray, don't mess around... Damn it!"

Whoosh!
The ashtray flew over, grazed his scalp, and hit the wall behind him.

Clang.

The ashtray is of good quality and there was no sound of breaking when it fell to the ground.

Kou Chaoyi was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat and was furious: "I'm going to call the police!!"

Meng Yi: "Why call the police?"

Kou Chaoyi: "Shouldn't I call the police if someone hits me?"

Meng Yi spread his hands and said, "Who saw me hit you? Are you injured? Is there a surveillance camera in the room?"

He dared to blatantly flirt with girls in the office, there must be no surveillance.

"Scoundrel!"

"asshole!"

Kou Chaoyi has poor fighting ability and can only output through words.

Meng Yi stood up, picked up a book from the desk, rolled it into a long cylinder and walked towards Kou Chaoyi.

"You...you...what do you want to do? Wait..."

Snapped!
Meng Yi swung his hand and hit Kou Chaoyi in the face, controlling the strength and angle very well. In addition, the other person's skin had turned red due to long-term drinking, so it was not noticeable at all.

It hurts, but there's no mark.

"Someone is coming!"

Snapped!
"police……"

Snapped!
Snapped!
Meng Yi didn't hit the same spot, but attacked from all directions, causing Kou Chaoyi to jump around like a monkey in pain.

"Did you just touch that girl and still keep talking nonsense?"

……

"Do you really think I'm blind?"

……

"You bastard, a harmonious society saved you, you know that?!"

……

"You hide again!"

……

"Don't you dare!"

……

"If I find out again, I'll chop off your hands!"

……

There were footsteps outside the door. Chen Yi came back, walking very quickly.

Meng Yi immediately threw the book in his hand back, and it landed accurately on the desk.

When Chen Yi walked in, he saw Kou Chaoyi standing in the corner and Meng Yi sitting there lighting a cigarette.

"What are you doing standing there?" Chen Yi was surprised.

Kou Chaoyi pointed at Meng Yi and complained: "He hit me, he hit me! I'm going to sue him!"

Meng Yi also pointed at Kou Chaoyi: "He is slandering me! He is slandering me! I will sue him!"

Chen Yi looked strange, and immediately understood: "We'll talk about your two things later. Where's Kou Chaoyi and Du Xun?"

"Hmm?" Meng Yi's eyes narrowed slightly, "He's not in class?"

Only then did he realize that Chen Yi came back alone.

"Du Xun... uh." Kou Chaoyi's eyes were evasive. "Isn't he in class? Maybe he went home. He often sneaks out of school and doesn't come back at night."

Chen Yi's expression turned cold: "Kou Chaoyi, I have written down the license plate number of the taxi that brought Du Xun back last night. If I call his father later and he doesn't come home, it will immediately become a missing case. Then Qingshi will have to face a carpet search first.

Let me introduce myself again. I am Chen Yi, the captain of the Criminal Investigation Brigade of Yangcheng City Bureau. Tell me quickly, where is Du Xun? "

Team leader Chen Yi? !

Kou Chaoyi stood there in a daze. The other party just said that he was a policeman... Why does this name sound familiar?

"I remember now. You were on the news. You were the one who...fell into the river and disappeared!"

He was scared and thought it was a police officer from the police station. He didn't expect him to be so powerful.

Meng Yi praised: "You have a good eye."

Chen Yi: "Let me ask again, where is Du Xun?"

Kou Chaoyi didn't dare to fool around this time, and said hesitantly: "I... I'm not sure either, let me take you to look for it."

After saying that, he came to the desk, opened the drawer and searched, and finally found a key. Then he led the way and Chen Yi left the office and the office building.

Kou Chaoyi did not stop when passing by the teaching building, and soon brought the two of them to the playground.

There is a tin house in the corner of the playground, but I didn’t notice it when I came because it was blocked by the surrounding buildings.

The tin house is very small, less than ten square meters.

There were windows, but they were boarded up with wood.

Kou Chaoyi came to the door and opened the lock with the key, and sure enough, he saw Du Xun inside.

He huddled against the wall, hugging his legs, his shoulders still shaking.

"Du Xun, come out quickly..."

Before Kou Chaoyi could finish his words, he was pulled away by Meng Yi.

Chen Yi walked in and took Du Xun out, only then could he see clearly that the other person had new wounds on his face.

Apparently, he was beaten again after returning last night, or he was beaten this morning.

From darkness to light, under the stimulation of the sunlight, Du Xun closed his eyes tightly and took a long time to recover. He opened his eyes and recognized Chen Yi.

"Police uncle?"

Chen Yi took a look at the tin house.

The narrow space, with no sunlight at all, is even more despairing than a small dark cell in a prison. Not to mention those with claustrophobia, any normal person would go crazy after staying there for a long time.

Meng Yi grabbed Kou Chaoyi's shoulders and said quietly, "You really deserve a beating."

Kou Chaoyi quickly explained: "I didn't do this!"

Meng Yi pointed at the other person's hand and said, "The key is with you."

Kou Chaoyi: "Others have it too! Those bastards from the student union have it too! I haven't touched this key in a long time!"

Chen Yi said nothing.

Qingshi’s problems are already very serious.

He took out his cell phone and made two calls, one to the detachment, asking the team to arrange someone to coordinate police forces from the nearby police station, and the other to the Education Bureau.

The call to the Education Bureau was hung up as soon as it was connected. After thinking about it, Chen Yi gave up on notifying the Education Bureau, searched through the address book, and finally dialed Xia Guangyuan's number.

Xia Lan's father.

He remembered that Xia Guangyuan's responsibilities included education.

It would be very convenient to have more friends. He didn't know if Kou Chaoyi had any friends in the Education Bureau, but Xia Guangyuan, who was in charge of education, was his friend. That was enough. It wouldn't matter if anyone else came.

Even if Kou Chaoyi's friend is the director of the Education Bureau, it won't work.
