Chapter 6 — I Was Forced to Pay 400,000 Yuan for an Unreal Window
It's not like he didn't know. It's that you know there's a problem... But you still choose to use power and money to force things down. The end result... The kick hit the hardest steel plate yet again. The nature of things... Completely changed.
“You… you talk nonsense!”
Liu Jianjun's face turned from dark purple to gray like a dead person. He did not expect that Vuong Chi Cuong would dare to bite him back in front of so many people. He rushed forward like crazy, wanting to silence Vuong Chi Cuong. A real estate owner. A residential manager. Right on the top floor of an abandoned apartment building. In front of hundreds of homeowners. Like two mad dogs attacking each other. The scene was chaotic to the extreme. And the residents' phones... started ringing even harder. This scene is even more attractive than the TV series. I stand on one side. Coldly looking at that commotion. Then take out your phone. Press call 110.
“Hello, hello, are you the police?”
“I want to report the crime.”
"At the construction site of the third area of Phi Thuy Giang Nam, there are people suspected of forced extortion, and currently there are violent fights."
“That's right, there are so many people, the scene is about to go out of control.”
“Sorry guys…”
“Come quickly and help me.”
The sound of police sirens rang out from afar and gradually came closer, tearing apart the chaotic atmosphere at the construction site. Red and blue lights flashed continuously on each person's face. It's like someone just forcibly pressed the pause button on this comedy. Luu Kien Quan and Vuong Chi Cuong, who were rolling around and fighting on the ground, immediately stiffened as if they had been hit with an acupuncture point. The two struggled to get up and adjust their wrinkled clothes. Everyone's face was full of wounds. Struggling to the point of being unsightly. The real estate owner and residential area manager were still aggressive and overbearing just now... Now under the police lights, they are as obedient as two students who made a mistake. Bow your head. Don't dare say a word. Several policemen walked through the crowd. At the forefront was a middle-aged police officer over forty years old. Square face. Sharp eyes. He scanned the entire scene. His gaze stopped for a few seconds on the two people who had just fought and the residents holding up their phones to film. Stop on me. Because of all the people here… I'm the one who called the police. Also the calmest person.
“Are you the one reporting the crime?”
he asked. I nodded.
“Yes, comrade police officer.”
"What's going on? Just keep it short."
I hadn't even had time to open my mouth yet... Liu Jianjun took a step forward, forcing out a smile that was more ugly than crying.
"Comrade police, it's a misunderstanding! It's all a misunderstanding!"
He quickly walked in front of the police, intending to take out his business card and cigarettes from his pocket. But my hands were shaking so badly that I still couldn't take it.
"Our company and the landlord only had a small conflict. During the exchange, there was a misunderstanding, so emotions were a bit agitated. It's not a big deal. We were able to resolve it ourselves."
He deliberately spoke softly. Wanting to turn a case with signs of extortion and public deception... into a "reconcilable internal conflict". The middle-aged police officer glanced at him. Do not respond. But continued to look at me, signaling me to continue speaking. Now is the moment that decides the direction of the whole thing. I can't be like them, agitated and out of control. You also cannot add salt and fish sauce. What I need to do… Just telling the truth.
“Comrade police, the story is like this.”
I took a step forward. Voice clear but calm.
“This afternoon I received a phone call from Manager Vuong from the residential management board.”
I pointed to Vuong Chi Cuong whose face was bloodless.
"He said that the window in the apartment 1201, building 12, area three Phi Thuy Giang Nam, which was in my name, had a window that fell and hit five cars downstairs. He asked me to pay 400,000 yuan in compensation."
The middle-aged police officer frowned slightly.
"Then I told him that my apartment was an abandoned apartment building. The investor had stopped construction for two years, and basically hadn't built up to the twelfth floor, much less had windows."
"But he didn't believe me, and threatened that if I didn't come and sign the compensation form, he would call the police and arrest me."
I just finished speaking. The surrounding residents immediately chimed in.
"That's right! We can testify! This apartment building has been abandoned for more than two years!"
“The investor is a fraud!”
The middle-aged policeman raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet. Then his eyes turned to Liu Jianjun. In those eyes, there was a clear scrutiny.
