Chapter 4 — I'm an Orphan, So Where Did My Mother Come From?

Aunt Quy used to be the teacher in charge of me at the City Children's Camp, and is still working there. As soon as she connected, she quickly asked:

"Tri Nam, what happened? I just read the message you sent."

I turned the camera towards Chiang Hong Mai.

“Aunt Quy, do you know this person?”

Aunt Quy squinted her eyes for a few seconds.

"Unfamiliar."

"From the age of seven to the age of eighteen, Tri Nam was always on the orphanage's guardian list."

“There are no records of any individual or family adoptions.”

"The girl's parents, Hua Huong Vinh and Lam Van Tinh, died while on duty. I can still read the file code."

“Who said I'm his mother?”

I switched the camera back. Aunt Quy's face immediately changed.

“Report the police.”

“Immediately report to the police.”

"Tri Nam, keep the phone on. I will contact the institute's legal department immediately."

Tuong Hong Mai's face turned pale. Chu Man Man was about to open her mouth. I suddenly raised my hand and pointed straight at her.

“Shut up.”

“Since you used the fact that my parents passed away to threaten me, this is no longer about reconciliation.”

I looked at Tuong Hong Mai.

“Tuong Hong Mai.”

"If you dare to say that you are my mother before my parents' names, then just keep that statement and say it at the police station."

Then I turned to Chu Man Man.

“My ID card, my balance certificate, my parents' sacrifice records were all leaked from your system.”

“You don't need to explain today.”

“Let the police investigate.”

As soon as he finished speaking, there was the sound of rapid footsteps outside the hallway. Two policemen entered the room. Behind him was Khau Hao, carrying a computer bag. I hugged the file bag tightly to my heart and immediately spoke:

“Comrade police, I want to report the incident.”

“Someone impersonated my mother, forged an agreement, coerced and blackmailed me for 1,800,000 yuan.”

“There are also people who illegally kept my exit documents and used it to threaten me into transferring money.”

"My parents died in the line of duty. I'm an orphan."

“Anyone who advised me to mediate privately today, I recorded it all.”

Hearing that, Tuong Hong Mai's legs became weak and she had to hold on to the edge of the table to stand steady. As for Chu Man Man's face... It was as white as a piece of paper. At the police station, Tuong Hong Mai still stubbornly denied.

“I don't blackmail.”

“She is my daughter.”

“That year I took it home to raise it but I didn't go through the procedures yet.”

“The whole village knows about this.”

A policeman asked:

“Which village?”

Tuong Hong Mai opened her mouth.

“Well... it's the village in my hometown.”

“What is the name of the village specifically?”

She immediately bowed her head and remained silent. Another police officer started comparing my papers and records one by one.

"Hua Tri Nam, father is Hua Huong Vinh, mother is Lam Van Tinh, both have had their household registration erased."

"We will send a verification letter to the relevant agency for confirmation of death while on duty."

“Please explain the whole story from beginning to end.”

I nodded. Starting from the moment I arrived at Khai Do Du Hoc to receive the application. Tell the story of Tuong Hong Mai rushing into the meeting room. Tell the story of Chu Man Man forcing me to transfer money. Tell the story that they held in their hands a confirmation of the account balance, a copy of the citizen identification card, and even the sacrifice records of my parents. I exported all videos, audio recordings and chat history in my phone. Khau Hao sat next to him. Listen and take notes. Throughout the process, he kept it surprisingly calm.

“Comrade police, we presently present four clear issues.”

"First, Tuong Hong Mai impersonated a relative, used false evidence to request 1,800,000 yuan, showing signs of extortion and property appropriation."

"Second, the agreement and the graduation photo both show signs of falsification, related to the act of fabricating evidence."

"Third, personal information and sensitive family records of Hua Tri Nam were leaked from the study abroad center, the source of the leak needs to be investigated."

"Fourth, the center's staff kept records and guards to prevent customers from leaving, and at the same time put pressure on them to transfer money."

Chu Man Man immediately objected:

“I don't!”

“I'm just afraid the customers will leave!”

As soon as she finished speaking, the police's eyes immediately turned to her.

“Customers left?”

“She owes money to your center?”
