Chapter 80 Daqiren: Don’t be too outrageous

The people from the Great Qi Dynasty hissed and couldn't help but widen their eyes.

They no longer found it strange that the policewoman was a woman, after all, Chaochao's aunt could become a high-ranking official.

What surprised them was that were all the officers so nice?
It's fine if doctors in later generations have a good attitude, but aren't officials also officials? Even if they are not officials, they are still more impressive than ordinary people. The officials they see on a daily basis are always shouting and yelling, how could they have such a good attitude?
Yes, it must be because the He family is powerful, yes, that’s it.

Just as I was thinking this, I saw a man suddenly walk in from outside, a man with disheveled hair, ragged clothes, carrying a big old and worn bag on his back, dragging a dirty blanket, and wearing shoes with holes in them.

Even though this person was wearing warmer clothes than most ordinary people in Daqi, compared with the three members of the He family standing beside him, he could still be easily recognized by people from Daqi who were not familiar with the later world...

"This is a beggar, right?"

"Why did a beggar end up in the government office? Shouldn't he be kicked out?"

"This is really getting boring."

As he was talking, there was movement in the police station. A young policeman quickly walked up to the dirty man and asked with a smile, "Uncle, do you need any help?"

"I, I want to go home... I don't remember. My family lived in the village. There was a... big ditch in front of my house. I, I think I had a dog... No, the dog is gone... I've been missing for many years, ten years? Eight years?"

He spoke incoherently and it was obvious that his mind was not clear.

The young policeman hurriedly helped him sit on a chair nearby. "Don't worry, uncle. Let's talk slowly. Come, have a drink of water first."

"Oh, I'm so hungry."

Young policeman, "I'll ask my colleagues to buy you a meal. What would you like to eat?"

"fried rice."

The young policeman said, "Okay, I'll buy it for you right away. Have some water first."

The old man gulped down half the cup and started babble again.

The young policeman nodded as he listened. "You've been separated from your family, haven't you? Don't worry, we'll definitely help you find your way home. You just said your home is in a village. Do you remember what it's called? Who else is in your family?"

Everyone in the Great Qi Dynasty, "..."

No, this is different from what they imagined. Are officials and yamen runners like this?
Wasn't the person a beggar? He was helping her, pouring her water, and even buying her food? Could you please not be too ridiculous?

It would be fine if they treated the three members of the He family with hospitality, but isn’t it unrealistic to treat an old beggar who got lost a long time ago in the same way?

They all looked at the reaction of the He couple and saw that they did not seem surprised and their faces were calm.

Instead, it was Chao Chao who looked somewhat surprised.

He Nanzhou was originally going to carry her and the policewoman to the reception room, but he stopped when he saw this. He just watched the conversation between the young policeman and the old man over there, and the policewoman did not urge them.

The young policeman was very patient. "Uncle, you said you've been away from home for many years? Where have you been living all these years? How did you get to our place today?"

"I suddenly thought of something this morning... and ended up walking here... I live far away, and last night I was at a deserted construction site..."

His words were confusing, but he also revealed some information.

The young police officer whispered to his colleague next to him, "His case should have been registered with other police stations. The street office won't ignore it. Go check and see if there are any clues."

"Row."

The young policeman turned to the old man and said, "Don't worry, we will definitely help you find your family. Just rest here for a while and tell me if you have any thoughts or anything you want to do."

"I, I want to go to the bathroom." "Okay, I'll take you there. This way, be careful."

The young policeman took the old man away, but Chaochao's eyes were still following their backs, his expression dazed.

Only after the person completely disappeared did she turn her head blankly and look at He Nanzhou.

The latter smiled and said, "Are you not so nervous now?"

"...Yeah." Chao Chao pursed her lips, and felt much calmer.

He Nanzhou then hugged her and followed the policewoman to the reception room.

The reception room was not big, with only their family and two policemen in it.

Chaochao had her parents by her side, and the police were so gentle, so she also relaxed.

The statement was quickly completed, and Chaochao spoke very little. The police also expressed their understanding. The girl was young, had suffered a great crime, was confined to a village and could not go anywhere, and had endless work to do every day. It was normal for her to know limited things.

Anyway, it's good to find the person back.

The police officer closed his notebook and said to He Nanzhou, "We understand the situation. We will continue to investigate Shangliu Village. If you have any clues, please let us know."

"Sorry to bother you, we'll leave first."

"it is good."

The record was completed quickly and smoothly, and during this period, the people of the entire Daqi Dynasty were very quiet.

They felt like they were watching an opera, a very beautiful yet unrealistic one. Otherwise, how could the frightening officials be... like this?
Lin Lan couldn't help but turn her head to look at the guards following the carriage. These people who brought them to the capital should also be officials, right?

In fact, these officials have treated them very well in the past few days, and their food and accommodation have been arranged very well.

Lin Lan and others were already flattered, but even so, there was still a huge difference compared to the police in later generations.

If she felt this way, the three members of the Hu family who were treated differently must have felt even more uncomfortable.

The guards were not friendly to them. When they were hungry, they ate coarse flour buns. When they were thirsty, they drank cold water. When they were cold, they hugged themselves to keep warm. When they wanted to go to the bathroom? They held it in.

They still have three days to reach Caozhou Wharf, so they have to endure this kind of life for another three days.

For the first time, Zheng looked at the sky with envy and whispered, "It would be great if I could go there. Even if I have to be a beggar, I can still eat fried rice."

No matter how quietly she spoke, Jiang Laosan, who was close by, still heard it.

He couldn't help but sneer at the moment, "That's a nice thought." Although he said so, when he looked up at the sky, there was also a look of envy on his face.

The three members of the He family had not left after finishing their statements, and they spoke a few more words after leaving the reception room.

Chaochao had nothing to do, so he couldn't help but look at the old man who was sitting on the sofa eating fried rice. The latter had washed his face, and although he was still wearing the tattered clothes, he looked much fresher.

He ate quickly and rice grains fell on the table. The police saw it but didn't scold him. Instead, they handed him a glass of water.

Chao Chao thought that the officials here were really nice.

As soon as the thought came to mind, another person came into the hall.
