Reborn Cat Sheriff

Chapter 153 is even more chaotic (4 chapters of 10,000 words, please vote)

A group of people rushed out in a panic, only to be stunned to see the old man's son sitting on the ground, his face covered in blood.

Standing in front of him was the station's cat officer, who was gesturing menacingly and hissing at the man.

The old woman's daughter-in-law was also kneeling on the ground, with auxiliary police officer Liu Shuangquan standing in front of her, flustered. On the other side of the wall, a little girl and the baby she was struggling to hold were hiding far away, both crying loudly with terrified expressions.

What a chaotic scene this is!

Nie Guoqiang instinctively looked at the overhead surveillance camera; thankfully, the lights were still on and functioning. Although the scene before him was chaotic, he could easily guess what was happening: the old man's son had tried to do something, but Mimi had stopped him, which had triggered the disturbance.

"Liu Shuangquan, what's wrong? Can't you even handle such a small thing?"

Nie Guoqiang glared sternly at Liu Shuangquan, completely ignoring the man Mimi had her eye on. After all, Mimi might be mischievous, but she would never harm innocent people.

"Director!"

Liu Shuangquan, his face full of bitterness, pointed at the man and said, "This guy was trying to force his way into the office area with a baby in his arms, spouting nonsense about killing his son at the police station. His wife tried to stop him from taking the child away, but he beat her up. I finally managed to snatch the baby back, but this bastard still wouldn't let it go! I was all alone, trying to take care of the child and stop him from hitting her—it wasn't easy. Luckily, Mimi came over and helped out..."

Nie Guoqiang's expression softened slightly.

With Liu Shuangquan's explanation, the whole story became clear. Besides, there were surveillance cameras overhead, so there was no fear that anyone would dare to lie.

But... how could this idiot hand over a baby to a little girl? If something goes wrong, this moron won't be able to explain himself even if he has a hundred mouths!

Nie Guoqiang glared at Liu Shuangquan, then walked up to the man, looking down at him and said, "What do you want? What do you think this place is? Threatening the police with your own son, are you even a father?"

"Um...I...I'm a son too!"

The man gasped for breath as he lowered his hand, stubbornly glaring at Nie Guoqiang. "Why did you arrest my father? Even if he knows a little about lock picking, he was just following orders. It wasn't like he wanted to do anything bad."

"The instrument is innocent?"

Zheng Mingxing muttered something under his breath.

Nie Guoqiang ignored the man's sophistry, and suddenly sneered: "So you knew your father could pick locks! Heh... How could you say you didn't know when you were at home?"

"..."

The man was speechless and turned to look at his wife and children.

His wife looked at him anxiously and with heartache. His daughter was crying, which broke his heart, and his son was only four months old...

But! No matter what, he's still my biological father! He's so old, he's worked so hard his whole life, how can I let his reputation be ruined in his old age? No matter what, I absolutely cannot let him be dealt with by the police, absolutely not!

The man made up his mind once again.

But when he turned around, he saw the cat staring at him again.

For some reason, a sudden chill ran from his tailbone to the top of his head, and the man shivered inexplicably. The courage he had finally mustered began to dissipate rapidly.

This cat... is terrifying.

Besides, animals... are definitely unreasonable and don't know their own strength. What if it scratches me again...?

The man lowered his head and remained silent.

"Heh, they really are bullies who prey on the weak and fear the strong!"

Seeing this, Nie Guoqiang suddenly sneered. He gestured for Liu Shuangquan to lead the woman and two children to the rest area, then pointed to a chair next to him and said to the man, "Anything else you want to say? Come and talk to me! I am Nie Guoqiang, the deputy director of Zhanghe Police Station, and I am now in charge of your father's case. But I can tell you now that your actions have caused him a lot of trouble, and he will pay a much harsher price than before!"

"Why! By what right!"

The man angrily raised his head.

Nie Guoqiang laughed: "Because he has an irresponsible son! It changed our opinion of him, making us feel that community supervision can't solve the problem! So I plan to act according to the law and make him spend a few days in jail!"

The man's body trembled violently. After a long while, he lowered his head to Nie Guoqiang and said, "I'm sorry, I acted impulsively. It's all my fault, it has nothing to do with my father. If you want to lock him up, then lock me up. My father has high blood pressure and diabetes, he has to take medication every day, he can't go to jail."

"An apology alone isn't enough! Kid, if you want your father to avoid tarnishing his reputation in his later years, you have a lot to do. At the very least, you need to keep a close eye on him and prevent him from using that so-called ancestral lock-picking skill again! Hmph! A skill can't be lost? As if there aren't any legitimate lock-picking organizations in the country! He's clearly learned some low-level, shady methods. Does he really think his lock-picking skills are better than professional locksmiths?"

Nie Guoqiang patted the man's shoulder hard, making the man shiver again.

Some things are common knowledge. Picking locks... isn't illegal! But even picking locks requires following the rules! When did the country ban the use of lock-picking skills? But if you only pick concealed or dirty locks, then don't blame the law for being unforgiving!
Zhao Tiehe and his son, who is clearly guilty, must be put on the police's surveillance list without a doubt!
Both of them are destabilizing factors in society.

The man, trembling, left with his wife and children, not daring to pursue the matter of being beaten at the police station. Although he was a scoundrel, his wife was sensible and virtuous, still tolerating and caring for him even after all that, which made one shake their head in disbelief.

Lin Ge sneezed in annoyance, feeling that all the beautiful flowers had been eaten by the cows.

"Mimi, shouldn't you trim your claws?"

Nie Guoqiang suddenly leaned over, stared into Lin Ge's eyes, and said, "Look at how many people you've injured in just one day? Even if you've done all good things, you still have to know your limits, right? Police enforcement can't be too violent."

Lin Ge turned his head, presenting his backside to Nie Guoqiang.

Clipping claws?
Stop joking. What's the difference between that and banning the military from carrying guns? He relies on his claws and strength to protect himself. Without his claws, how can he act arrogantly outside?
"Hehe... Old Nie, Mimi didn't do anything wrong this time!"

Surprisingly, Zheng Mingxing took the initiative to speak well of Lin Ge.

Lin Ge turned to look at the guy, only to see Zheng Mingxing waving his hand with a smile, saying, "Mimi deserves credit for preventing a potentially terrible situation from escalating. I can't even imagine what would have happened if that baby had actually been involved in an accident at the police station..."

"Liu Shuangquan isn't that useless!"

Nie Guoqiang shook his head, but still glared fiercely at Liu Shuangquan, making him shudder.

But after Zheng Mingxing's words, it would be inappropriate for Nie Guoqiang to criticize Lin Ge any further. He thought about it, shook his head, and decided to let the cat off the hook again.

And with this cat around, the police station is now experiencing both pain and joy. The recent cases have all been solved thanks to this cat. Even though the police station is incredibly busy, the fact that the people are getting safer and more secure is a truly good thing.

Didn't you see that even Zheng Mingxing has changed his opinion of Mimi?
No matter how much Mimi misbehaves, she's always reliable when it comes to important matters. Having a cat like her is a great thing for the police station, and tolerating her minor quirks is perfectly reasonable.

The two old men exchanged a glance, feeling a deep sense of empathy.

"Ugh... How disgusting, it's so gay."

Lin Ge shuddered, turned around, and slipped back to the cat house.

Before he even got close, he saw Luo Jue standing motionless in the courtyard.

The child was wearing a nice tracksuit, but it seemed a bit too big and loose. It was clearly made by Nie Guoqiang; only he would be so unreliable. He definitely couldn't survive without Jiang Yan.

Lingo stepped forward and rubbed his tail against Luo Jue's feet twice, causing him to belatedly lower his head.

Luo Jue's eyes gleamed faintly in the night. Only then did Lin Ge notice that he had even cut his hair, giving him a neat and energetic new look. Even his shoes were new; it seemed he was ready to go home and seek help.

"Old...Mimi, I...I'm leaving in a few days."

Luo Jue suddenly spoke haltingly, and the first sentence he uttered made Lin Ge roll his eyes. Did this little brat want to call him boss?

Besides, if you're going to leave, then leave. Reuniting with family is a good thing.

"But...I don't want to leave! I want...to stay here...here. I...I...I'm a little scared, what if they...they don't recognize me...what will I...do? Maybe I should...just not go?"

This was the first time Luo Jue had ever been so nervous communicating with Lin Ge. The two of them were usually like a cat and its shadow, rarely speaking to each other.

"If they don't recognize you, just come back! It's no big deal!"

Lin Ge really wanted to say that, but seeing the look of fear on Luo Jue's face, he could only sigh helplessly.
