I was silent for two seconds. Then smiled. “Then good luck.” Leaving the cafe, it was raining lightly outside. I didn't bring an umbrella, but I was too lazy to go back and get it. Just keep walking in the rain. Rainwater hit my face, cold. I suddenly felt... Ton Hao, this person, is really pitiful. But it's not worth agreeing with. Anyway, the path he chooses is his own. Like that year, I chose to make a supplementary card for To Oanh, opened the payment for her, and made up two thousand each month. That's my own choice. Now he is going through the same thing. It's just that he sobered up faster than me. Half a month was unbearable. And I endured three years. Thinking about this, I burst out laughing. Speed up your steps and walk towards the house. Eat hot pot tonight. Alone. 【Chapter 9】 Eighteenth day after breaking up. Everything returned to peace. To Oanh doesn't contact me anymore. I also didn't actively look for her. The turbulence in the circle of friends has also passed. The crowd of people waiting to see the excitement then dispersed. Life is like that. No matter how big the story is, over time it will be covered by new rumors. I thought the story ended like that. Until that evening, I received a phone call. Strange number. Answering the phone, it was a female voice. "May I ask, are you Lam Vien?" "It's me." "Hello, I'm a police officer at the XX police station. There was a girl who reported that you threatened her and harassed her. Would you come to the police station tomorrow morning to make a report?" My mind was racing. "Who reported the crime?" "Ms. To Oanh." I closed my eyes and took a deep breath. "When did I threaten her?" "The specific situation needs you to come and present it in person. Please come over here before ten o'clock tomorrow morning." "Okay, I know." Hanging up the phone, I sat on the sofa, looking at the ceiling. Threats of harassment? After breaking up, other than asking for debt, I didn't say anything to her. How dare she report me to the police saying I threatened her? I opened WeChat and found the chat box with Tran Duy. "Are you there? It's urgent." Tran Duy immediately replied: "Talk." I simply describe the situation in one go. He replied: "Do you keep all the chat history?" "Yes." "Transfer records, payment records, lawyer letters back and forth, all backed up." "All backed up." "Okay then. I'll go with you tomorrow. She's trying to backfire, but you have the evidence in your hand, don't be afraid."I looked at that message for a long time. Reply with a “thank you.” Then lean on the sofa and close your eyes. To Oanh. She was truly more cruel than I thought.——The next morning, Tran Duy and I went to the police station together. Next to us was a female police officer over forty years old, surnamed Liu. She asked me to sit down and took out a report. "Mr. Lam, Ms. To Oanh reported that after the breakup, you repeatedly sent threatening messages, and also used the form of a lawyer's letter to harass her, causing serious psychological pressure on her. How do you explain this?" I took my phone out of my pocket. "Officer Liu, I can show you my entire chat history with her." I passed the phone over. From the first text message three years ago, to the day of separation, to the lawyer's letter, to the final money transfer. All notes, not a single line missing. Officer Liu looked at it for a long time. Then she raised her head and looked at me. "These payment records... are all real?" "It's real. Alipay can check the cash flow." She looked again for a while, then returned the phone to me. "Mr. Lam, please wait a moment." She stood up and went out. Tran Duy and I sat there waiting. Tran Duy said in a low voice: "It's okay. She's making a false accusation." Five minutes later, Officer Liu returned. Follow To Oanh behind. To Oanh saw me, her face changed. "Why is he here?" "Miss To, please sit down." Officer Liu said. “We need to verify one

some situations." To Oanh bit her lip and sat down. Police Officer Luu looked at her: "According to the chat history and transfer records provided by Mr. Lam, during their relationship, he paid you a very large fee. After breaking up, he used legitimate legal methods to collect the additional card debt. This does not constitute threats or harassment.”“But he sent a lawyer letter…”“A lawyer letter is a method of protecting legal rights.” Officer Liu interrupted her. “Furthermore, according to records, after receiving the lawyer's letter, she proactively refunded the debt. This proves that she acknowledged the existence of that debt." To Oanh's face turned pale. "So he publicized our private matter on our friends circle..." "He publicly recorded his own payment records." Tran Duy said. “This has nothing to do with your privacy. Furthermore, the response after her friend publicly posted false information on her previous friend circle." Officer Liu looked at To Oanh, his tone a bit more serious. "Miss To, making a false police report is legally responsible." To Oanh's eyes turned red. "I didn't make a false report... I really feel he is threatening me..." She said then cried. Officer Liu sighed.
