Cutting In and Crashing – Is This Your Driving School Instructor? 86

Chapter 86: Confession?

Gu Yin’s “recording” was known to Xia Xiangsi, Mengmeng, and many viewers who watched the show last night. However, so much happened afterward that everyone subconsciously assumed the recording would likely be useless; after all, they weren’t relying on the police anymore…

Unexpectedly, Su Nuan gave Gu Yin the chance to use it.

With a police officer sister “taking charge” on the other end of the phone, recalling the arrogant words spoken by the Audi driver and his companions last night, charging them with “creating a public disturbance” was absolutely no problem. Anything that couldn’t be found in the legal codes could be dealt with under the charge of creating a public disturbance—that’s perfectly acceptable.

“…”

Su Nuan on the other end of the phone remained silent, patiently waiting for Gu Yin to play the recording. The “Police Beauty”’s gaze occasionally drifted towards the mall entrance where Manager Liu Si and the Audi driver were waiting for her to resolve the situation…

Her eyebrows furrowed slightly. Su Nuan thought to herself that the Audi driver and the mall manager certainly hadn’t given her the complete story.

Having worked in law enforcement for so many years, Su Nuan knew that everyone presents their own version of events, always choosing details that benefit them. She hadn’t expected the Audi driver to have concealed so much…

So, this guy had accomplices?

“Let’s hear what the recording says first.” The Police Beauty’s eyes sharpened. If the Audi driver’s actions were truly egregious, she would definitely give him a taste of her wrath.

However…

To Su Nuan, Xia Xiangsi, Mengmeng, and even many viewers, the opening of the recording was a complete shock!

From the recording, a man’s voice boomed: “Who the hell are you, some unzipped fly you sprang out of? What does this have to do with you? Your car? You meddling dog, you’re really sticking your nose where it doesn’t belong!”

As soon as these words came out…

【…】

Everyone was stunned.

Then…

【Pfft…】

【Ahahahaha…】

The viewers watching the livestream couldn’t help but burst into laughter:

【Wait, doesn’t that voice sound like Coach Gu?】

【Pfft… Last night, Coach Gu’s curses were even dirtier than the other guy’s!】

【Police Officer Sister: Are you turning yourself in?】

【Hahahaha… I’m laughing so hard my head is spinning!】

…

“Pfft…”

Xia Xiangsi and Mengmeng, who were close to Gu Yin, couldn’t help but laugh out loud. Xia Xiangsi teased, “Is that your voice? Are you turning yourself in?”

“Hahaha…” Mengmeng was also laughing so hard she couldn’t straighten up.

Gu Yin’s forehead was covered in black lines. He paused the recording and then said to Su Nuan on the other end of the phone:

“I didn’t speak nicely either, but this at least proves we didn’t cut and edit things randomly. That group of people insulted me first, so there’s no problem with me cursing them back, right?”

Even if they hadn’t insulted him first, who wouldn’t curse in that situation?

“No… hehe, no problem.” Su Nuan awkwardly chuckled, finding the situation both funny and frustrating.

She had suspected the voice was Gu Yin’s, and it turned out to be him. This young man was truly straightforward, but his words…

were a little too crude!

It’s really quite embarrassing…

This brief interlude didn’t affect Gu Yin’s continued “complaint.” The following dialogue revealed a great deal of information about the Audi driver and his group.

The balding, greasy man threatened: “Where are you? Come down here! I’ll show you what’s what with this BYD Qin…” (BYD Qin is a car model)

The clever Jiang Cong, acting as a strategist, said: “If you go down, you’ll have to move your car, right? I say you shouldn’t go down. Let that kid wait there. He doesn’t know where we are. As long as we don’t go down, he can’t move his car, he can’t leave. He can’t possibly search the whole mall for us. He wouldn’t dare hit Brother Qiu’s car, otherwise he wouldn’t have called.”

Finally, Brother Qiu, the Audi driver, summarized: “Young man, let me tell you, when things happen, it’s best to talk things over. We can all make money together harmoniously. You had to use such harsh language, which makes things much harder to deal with. Fine, if you want to call the police, go ahead. I’m not saying I won’t move the car, but I really don’t have time.”

The three of them echoed each other, their words incredibly infuriating…

They were the ones causing the trouble, yet it seemed like Gu Yin had to beg them to move their car.

Even Su Nuan, whose emotions had been very stable, couldn’t help but clench her fists as she listened. Her gaze toward the Audi driver at the mall entrance was filled with resentment.

What Su Nuan found most unacceptable was what Jiang Cong, the clever one, said:

“It’s okay, Brother Qiu, let him report it. Our car is in the underground parking garage. The police usually don’t care about this kind of thing. Don’t worry.”

They acted recklessly, violating others’ rights, knowing that the police wouldn’t bother with it…

This wasn’t just directed at Gu Yin and his friends; it was an insult to the police!

It was incredibly jarring to Su Nuan!

She was furious!

At that moment, the Police Beauty had made up her mind: none of these people would get off scot-free!

“It really was a case of the guilty party accusing others first…” After listening to the recording, Su Nuan said to Gu Yin: “They didn’t tell me a single word of this. If you hadn’t recorded it, I wouldn’t know they were so contemptuous of the law and the police.”

After a moment of silence, Su Nuan continued: “This constitutes intentional creation of a public disturbance. Send me the recording later, and I’ll give you a satisfactory answer.”

Su Nuan’s tone was serious and confident.

She realized that Gu Yin wasn’t truly angry about the police’s inaction. To be honest, there are many things the police don’t deal with, and many people have gotten used to it. That’s just how the law is; there’s nothing that can be done…

Gu Yin’s real anger was directed at the Audi driver and his group.

These people were too arrogant!

Their attitude was too terrible!

They deliberately blocked his car, refused to move it, and said those things, exploiting loopholes in the law!

Su Nuan thought that if she were Gu Yin, she would have been furious too. No wonder he used a forklift to ram the Audi into a wall; anyone would have wanted revenge!

【Oh…】

The viewers in the “Reconciling with Life” livestream started to chime in.

【Creating a public disturbance, contempt for the law, contempt for the police…】

【Haha, that’s quite a few charges!】

【I think we need to see how this police officer performs next.】

…

Su Nuan spoke with firmness and conviction, even listing the charges against them.

These charges, any one of them, could easily lead to a sentence.

First of all, creating a public disturbance usually results in up to five years imprisonment, detention, or probation. Serious cases can result in five to ten years imprisonment and a fine.

Contempt for the law and the police doesn’t constitute a crime in itself, but it only adds fuel to the “creating a public disturbance” charge, making it worse for them.

Combined with their words and the negative impact…

It’s easy to imagine that the Audi driver and his group were finished.

“Okay.”

Gu Yin nodded.

All his requests had essentially been made clear: he would move the car, but only after getting a proper response. Not everyone should pressure him; those who caused the problem should pay the price first.

“Then, officer, I’ll wait for your news?” he asked.

“Okay.” Su Nuan nodded. Both she and Gu Yin tacitly avoided mentioning moving the car, as they both knew the priority was to deal with the Audi driver and his group first.

“Wait for my call, kid. I’ll hang up now.” With that, Su Nuan hung up.

“Captain Su.” Seeing Su Nuan finish her call, Xiao Chen, who had been watching from the side, approached cautiously and asked, “How did it go?”

Su Nuan didn’t answer, but lowered her head, tapping her phone with her white jade hands, clearly adding Gu Yin’s contact information.

It’s worth mentioning that she used her personal account, not her work account…

“Call the station,” she said directly. “Tell all officers without urgent cases to come and help.”

“Ah?”

Xiao Chen was dumbfounded.

What?

Just because of a forklift incident, they needed so many officers?

“Captain Su, you don’t intend to use manpower to lift the forklift, do you?” Xiao Chen smirked; they could just ask the mall staff to move it.

Su Nuan’s face showed some impatience. She reprimanded, “Xiao Chen, why are you still focusing on the forklift?”

“I…” Xiao Chen was speechless.

“Sigh…”

Su Nuan sighed, looking at him with a “you’re hopeless” expression, shook her head, and said nothing more. She turned toward the mall elevator entrance.

Xiao Chen didn’t dare say anything and silently followed…

At the mall elevator entrance, Manager Liu Si and the Audi driver were there. The Audi driver was arguing with the mall manager:

“What, the mall isn’t going to do anything?”

“Sir, there’s nothing we can do…” Manager Liu Si could only complain.

It wasn’t that they didn’t want to move the forklift; how could they? Gu Yin had positioned it so perfectly that unless you could find a way to bypass the wall, no one could move the car…

“Call a locksmith!” The Audi driver, quick-witted, suggested: “He said he lost his keys, right? Get him a new set! Just move the car!”

“This…” The manager didn’t know how to respond.

Just then, Su Nuan’s voice came from beside them:

“Is that your car? You say to get a key and you get a key? Did you get the owner’s permission? That’s considered intentional property damage, which is theft, understand?”

Qiu Xin, the Audi driver, was already in a foul mood. This incident not only delayed his use of the car but also put him on the hot search. He had been frantically trying to get the mall and the police to solve this problem since early this morning. Just as he thought of a solution, someone poured cold water on him, and he was about to lose his temper…

But when he turned and saw Su Nuan in her police uniform, the words died in his throat.

“Officer, don’t just stand there and talk! It’s not your car that’s blocked! You’ve been here for hours and haven’t given me an answer. Am I supposed to just keep waiting?”

Qiu Xin, just like Gu Yin last night, wasn’t sure about the police, as they’d passed the buck last night. Besides, if they really investigated, he wouldn’t hold up, as he’d been the instigator.

To his surprise, the female officer, who had been quite nice, now had a cold expression and immediately rebuked him:

“What ‘Officer’? Watched too many Hong Kong films? Call me ‘Police Officer’ or ‘Comrade Police Officer’!”

“I…”

Qiu Xin was stunned. He never expected her to pick on this. He swallowed his anger; he dared not say a word to a police officer. He only lowered his head sullenly: “Police Officer…”

As long as the problem could be solved, he would concede. Qiu Xin asked, “How’s it going with this? When will that guy come to move his car?”

However, Qiu Xin was surprised when the elegant and dignified officer asked:

“Why should he move his car for you?”

“I…” Qiu Xin was taken aback. Wasn’t that something a police officer shouldn’t say?

“He should move his car for me, of course!” The middle-aged man with graying temples was exasperated. “You didn’t see how he blocked me. That’s malicious property damage! Why shouldn’t he move his car?!”

Su Nuan remained calm and said directly: “Do you not know why he rammed your car?”

“I…”

Qiu Xin felt a little guilty, but still insisted:

“But I didn’t refuse to move the car, did I? I had something to do! I asked him to wait a while. I never said I wouldn’t move it, did I?”

“Heh…” Su Nuan was amused. “Are you sure that’s what you said?”

Qiu Xin was actually a clever man. From this morning, he’d been telling the police that he was temporarily delayed and would come down to move his car soon, without mentioning his refusal to move it; but when he came down, his car was already rammed against the wall.

He completely avoided mentioning his “refusal to move the car” and his “bad attitude”!

“I…” Qiu Xin was once again speechless.

The beautiful police officer, although elegant and dignified, didn’t have a harsh attitude. Even her tone was soft, but somehow, Qiu Xin felt a pressure.

Su Nuan didn’t waste any words and played Gu Yin’s recording…

As Qiu Xin listened, his expression gradually darkened…

Last night, Gu Yin had told him he’d recorded everything, but there had been so many things that happened afterwards that he’d forgotten about it…

Unexpectedly, the recording had ended up in Su Nuan’s hands!

Moreover, the recording fully captured their awful attitude!

How could he possibly explain this?!

Manager Liu Si and Officer Xiao Chen were also present when Su Nuan played the recording. The manager knew the whole story, but he hadn’t realized that the Audi driver’s group was so arrogant!

At that moment, his eyes seemed to say, “He deserved to have his car rammed!”

As for Officer Xiao Chen…

His face involuntarily showed some shame.

He seemed to have been too hasty in his investigation.

“Qiu Xin.”

After finishing the recording, Su Nuan said directly:

“Your actions last night involved creating a public disturbance, contempt of police, and contempt of law. I’m now detaining you according to law; come back to the station for investigation.”

As she spoke, the dignified police officer pulled out a pair of silver handcuffs.

Before Qiu Xin could react, there was a “click,” and one of his hands was cuffed.

“I… Police Officer, listen to my explanation! No, it’s not like that!”

At this moment, the Audi driver, who had been arguing stubbornly, finally understood. He finally knew he was wrong…

He never thought that simply going out to dinner with friends, not finding a parking spot, and not wanting to move his car, would lead to him getting a pair of silver handcuffs!

However, Su Nuan didn’t listen to his explanation…

She immediately called Xiao Chen and took him to the police car.

It is worth noting that…

At that time, there were many college students from the nearby university town “checking in” in the underground parking lot, as well as some onlookers.

Witnessing this, many people took out their phones and started snapping pictures.

Someone in the crowd shouted:

“Good!”

“Serves him right!”

“He should have been arrested a long time ago!”

Su Nuan’s action was truly satisfying to many.

To everyone’s surprise, as the Audi driver was being put into the police car, a thin man wearing glasses rushed over anxiously and grabbed the Audi driver, asking:

“What’s going on?”

“Brother Qiu, what’s happening?”

Qiu Xin, who had been begging for mercy, already knew he was wrong. Seeing the arrival of the man, he became furious!

His cuffed hands grabbed the man’s collar, and he roared:

“Jiang Cong!”

“You stupid idiot came up with the plan last night!”

“It’s all your fault!”

“You &*%#@… Aaaaaaaaaah!”

The man was clearly Jiang Cong, the clever one who had “advised” Qiu Xin last night.

“No, I…”

Jiang Cong was completely dumbfounded. He never imagined that simply parking a car wrongly could lead to getting silver bracelets!

What was going on!

What shocked Jiang Cong even more was…

At that moment, Su Nuan suddenly walked over, frowning and asking:

“Were you having dinner with him last night?”

“Yes… yes…” Jiang Cong hadn’t reacted yet and subconsciously nodded.

“Then, perfect…”

Su Nuan casually took another pair of silver handcuffs from the car. Before Jiang Cong could figure out what was happening, he heard a “click”…

He was cuffed too!

A double whammy.
