Chapter 770: AV Director Has No Integrity
Chapter 770: AV Director Has No Integrity
The drowsy Officer Ma became energetic all of a sudden when he heard the word drugs as if he was injected with morphine.
“Ye Lin, it’s not a joke when you accuse someone of transporting drugs! Are you not afraid of being charged for false allegations?”
“That’s right! It’s slander!” Zeng Lao Liu said in a hurry, “I transport dogs, not drugs! I don’t do anything where I could end up losing my head!”
I shifted my sunglasses, “Well, I received information that a group of people put drugs into condoms and made dogs swallow them to transport it to Guangzhou —— I saw there were quite a few dogs throwing up in the truck earlier, which was probably a negative reaction to whatever they had in their stomach!”
The metal cages the dogs were stuffed inside were very small. There were 10 or more dogs stuffed into one cage, so almost all of the dogs were in a sub-optimal condition. You could pull out a dog at random and it would look like it ate some drugs.
“Nonsense!” Zeng Lao Liu became abnormally angry, “What would a damn student know about drug trafficking? You’re just trying to tarnish our reputation!”
“That’s right.” I turned to look at Officer Ma, “I’m just a regular student.”
When Officer Ma heard what I said, he felt sick with apprehension.
In his eyes, I wasn’t a regular student, but a suspect who will commit a crime that will shock the nation before I reach twenty years old.
Also, a few months ago, I was arrested while carrying drugs because Su Qiao set me up. However, Officer Ma had to let me go because the amount of marijuana I possessed didn’t surpass 50g. After that incident, there’s no way Officer Ma would believe I was completely unrelated to drug traffickers.
He squinted at me as if he wanted to know if I was purposefully trying to waste his time or if I actually heard about some information.
Officer Ma was in the narcotics division and he had a deep hatred towards drug traffickers. Even if there was only a 1/10000 chance the Zeng Brothers were transporting drugs, he couldn’t be careless and let them go or he would have many more sleepless nights.
“If Ye Lin is reporting that Zeng Lao Da and Zeng Lao Liu and transporting drugs, then I will perform a routine check…”
“Transporting drugs? Who would dare to transport drugs? The kids in our village all got executed by firing squad for selling heroin. It doesn’t matter how much money you make if you’re not alive to spend it!”
Zeng Lao Da sounded very sincere, to the point I believed he wasn’t transporting drugs, but Officer Ma became even more suspicious when he heard his village has sold heroin before.
“Anyway, I’m going to inspect your dogs.” Officer Ma swept away his dispirited energy and stood up with a burst of energy.
“Officer Ma!” Zeng Lao Liu said in a panic, “We really don’t have drugs on our truck! The brat is setting us up to waste our time!”
“That’s right.” I nodded along, “I actually only heard some unreliable information that there was a truck carrying drugs to Guangzhou, so it doesn’t mean that it’s their truck! Officer Ma, why don’t you turn a blind eye and let them go! It would be bad to waste anymore of their time.”
I made sure to say I wasn’t positive if the Zeng brothers were carrying drugs and that I was only reporting a suspicious vehicle, so I wouldn’t be charged with false allegations if they don’t find anything.
I realized I’m getting more and more bad ideas now that I can’t resort to violence. I’ve learned a lot of bad things from Dr. Yu and also the one we met earlier, Zhao Yao.
The reason why I wasn’t worried about Officer Ma letting them go even if I was vague was because I understood Officer Ma’s personality: turning a blind eye isn’t a phrase in his vocabulary!
“Xiao Zhang!” Officer Ma called out to the civil police officer who was recording evidence, “Let’s put the mediation aside for now. Come with me to their truck to inspect if there are any signs of drugs or not!”
“Al, alright!” Xiao Zhang was abnormally excited. He was able to personally join in a drug inspection from the narcotics division he admired, so he was as giddy as a student in attending a lab.
“Huuu~ huuu~ huuu, you god-forsaken demons…” the rich woman was too emotionally excited and had an asthma attack. She pulled her inhaler from her purse and inhaled a couple times before she was fine again.
“How dare you transport drugs in a doggy! What if the condom broke in their bodies! You guys are sinning for harming both people and dogs! Poor doggies…”
The rich woman began yelling at them while carrying which attracted more attention towards us.
“Now the dog dealers have become drug dealers, what a good show!” Someone who looked like a salesperson said to their companion, who was eating noodles.
“It’s fine as long as a gunfight doesn’t start. Let’s keep away from them and not stick our nose into their business…”
Ma HuiYu wasn’t as easily tricked as the rich woman. She looked at me suspiciously and wondered why I would rather accuse them of selling drugs instead of letting them take the dogs away.
“Are you from the save the animals from extinction organization (SAFE)?” Ma HuiYu asked me quietly over the crying voice of the rich woman.
I didn’t understand what she meant at the time, but I heard later from Xiao Ding that SAFE was an animal protection organization that originated in New York. They have followers from all around the world and its goal was “to rescue animals from human hands by any means”. So far they have already sent death threats to many animal lab employees and were really only one step away from committing acts of terrorism.
There was even a branch in Dong Shan city! It seems like although Ma HuiYu wasn’t a member of SAFE, she has come into contact with their members before. I think the volunteers here were already pretty radical, but you’re telling me there were even more radical animal protectionists out there?!
Ma HuiYu suspected that I was a member of SAFE and was even more radical than she was, but the class leader knew that I was not a member of SAFE and I was saying complete nonsense. The class leader could only facepalm as I went completely against the ideals of a Justice Devil.
Zeng Lao Liu helplessly followed Officer Ma outside the restaurant, and gave me a fierce glare which meant “I would have killed you if the police weren’t here”.
For me, who has pissed off even the international capitalist, the vicious and merciless Ai ShuQiao, the threats of a dog dealer isn’t really a big deal. So I didn’t really care and followed Officer Ma out of the restaurant door —— Officer Ma wanted me to go over and check. Although I said my information wasn’t reliable and it was okay to not check them, but Officer Ma didn’t let me go.
The class leader and Ma HuiYu naturally also followed behind us. The rich woman still hadn’t calmed down and she still had to pay the bill, so she stayed behind temporarily and watched us from the window.
“There’s no need to go this far.” The class leader sighed from behind, “We can’t stop anymore, but if they don’t find any drugs later…”
“Don’t worry.” I said, “Keep searching for suspicious people, I bet their accomplices haven’t left yet! I’ll try to stall for as long as possible. I can at least make them stay at the service stop for another 2 to 3 hours!”
The class leader took joy in their misfortune as she watched the Zeng brothers repeatedly explaining to Officer Ma that they weren’t carrying drugs, yet Officer Ma still insisted on checking and she found it amusing.
Even if she tried to hold back, her lips curved slightly upwards.
“Ye Lin, when did you become so bad?”
“Huh? Class leader, are you complimenting me? I thought you just said earlier I wasn’t as bad as I looked?”
“…You better not use your intelligence on crimes in the future.”
“How would I commit crimes with my heart problems!”
“That’s true, but it doesn’t seem like your heart disease is serious…”
“Who said it’s not serious!” I covered my chest and wanted to pretend I was having a heart attack, but then I thought I was able to act before because I was on a bed, but could I lie on the ground? It was too embarrassing to be seen by everyone around me, so I put it off for now.
Under Officer Ma’s orders, the Zeng brothers had to open some of the locks on the cages to let him search for drugs. Officer Ma’s attention wasn’t entirely on the dogs, first he went inside to look for hidden compartments, then he came out to check on the dogs the volunteers let out.
“What’s going on here?” Officer Ma pointed to a dog with an obviously bloated stomach.
Xiao Ding replied: “It’s probably a digestive problem or it’s a lipoma.”
“Are you a vet?” Officer Ma saw the stethoscope wrapped around Xiao Ding’s neck and asked, “Do you think the bloating can be caused by being forced to swallow foreign objects?”
“It doesn’t look like it. I think it’s a lipoma.”
“That’s right!” Zeng Lao Da said, “The dog lovers already said there aren’t any drugs in the dog’s stomach! We are being wrongly accused! The dog only has a lipoma!”
Ma HuiYu raised an eyebrow: “How did a dog who has a lipoma pass inspections? I think there’s a problem with the documentation you showed earlier!”
Zeng Lao Liu elbowed his brother so that he would stop talking.
Some laws of physics have limitations, some laws of physics ignores space and time, and some laws are universally applicable.
For example: Bad teammates often don’t know they are bad teammates.
Also: Since there are people who aren’t willing to be on TV and reveal their names, then there must be people who are eager to get on TV and eager to have everyone to know their names.
Among the protestors holding signs, I saw Eunuch Cao——’s father.
Why is Director Cao here! He stands out from all the young protestors with his Hawaii shirt and beer belly! I never heard that he likes dogs? I thought he was a lolicon? If someone violated loli transportation laws, then he would be the first to jump out, but what does this even have to do with you?!
I took another look at Director Cao’s sign: “The short series ‘Bloody Battle of Jin Ling’ strongly supports animal rights. Everyone is welcome to watch it online for free.”
Damn! He came here to advertise! Since the ‘Bloody Battle of Jin Ling’ didn’t have enough views, so did you come here hoping your sign would get on TV for free advertisement?
Do you have any integrity? Does ‘Bloody Battle of Jin Ling’ even have any relations to protecting animals? Do you think because Jin Ling Young Thug raised a dog and they hugged each other in their deaths, then you can get a free ride here?
This is bad! What if some bored people watch this news and search for ‘Bloody Battle of Jin Ling’? Even if I’m wearing sunglasses, it’s likely I would be recognized as the actor who played Jin Ling Young Thug!
I don’t want this to be the way I get famous! I don’t want to be listed alongside the three famous actors who once attended 28 Middle: The village bully Liu HeiGou, the unscrupulous merchant Xu WeiYang, and the traitor Wang FuGui! I have to pretend that I don’t know Director Cao. I can’t take off my sunglasses and I can’t talk to him!
Speak of the devil. Director Cao spotted me and came over like he found treasure.
