Although Li Ru was all kinds of confused, Chief Zhou did not continue.

He took a step forward and said, “We’ll discuss the child’s matter next. Let’s go and see Mr. Zhang Youwei first.”

Hearing this, Li Ru could only nod her head and then follow Ma Daqiang and Zhou Guowei into the detention room.

In the detention room, everyone else was still in a state of excitement, while Xu Pingqiu seemed to be saying something to Zhang Youwei.

Seeing the three people walk in, the two police officers, Old Li and Xiao Wang, immediately stood up and saluted, “Hello, Chief Zhou. Hello, Captain Ma.”

Zhou Guowei nodded slightly and asked, “This Mr. Zhang Youwei, was he detained by you?”

Old Li and Xiao Wang looked at each other, and then Old Li was the first to speak, “Mr. Zhang Youwei’s case was indeed handled by Xiao Wang and me. However, the person who called the police was Zhang Youwei’s wife, Ms. Li Ru.”

Hearing this, Chief Zhou was slightly stunned. He turned around and looked at Li Ru in disbelief. That expression was clearly saying, this is your husband, and you actually called the police to arrest him?

Li Ru also revealed an embarrassed expression and explained, “My husband has gone astray. I hope that the police officers can educate him so that he won’t repeat his mistakes again.”

For a moment, the entire detention center descended into a deadly silence.

At this time, it was still Ma Daqiang who took the lead to cough, breaking the awkward atmosphere, “Chief Zhou, what do you think about this case? How should we handle it?”

In this room, the only person who could speak effectively was Zhou Guowei.

Zhou Guowei coughed and said, “About that… You guys bring Mr. Zhang Youwei out first. I’ll personally go to the interrogation room to talk to him.”

After saying that, he turned around and walked toward the interrogation room.

Since Chief Zhou had spoken, the others naturally did not dare to be negligent. Old Li immediately opened the door of the cubicle and brought Zhang Youwei to the interrogation room.

After that, he returned to the police station with Xiao Wang to work in the report room.

Since the Chief was already here, there was definitely no need for them to get involved in the rest of the matters.

In the interrogation room, Zhang Youwei sat alone at the side. Chief Zhou and Captain Ma sat opposite Zhang Youwei.

As for Xu Pingqiu, he sat at the side as an observer.

After all, he had a good relationship with Zhou Guowei. In addition, he was also a good friend of Zhang Youwei, so he had a certain understanding of the case. It was not a big deal for him to sit in and listen.

As for Li Ru, she stayed outside alone and waited anxiously.

Now, she really regretted it. Zhang Youwei only had one month left to live, and she had actually sent him to the police station. Perhaps she had overreacted.

Now, she only hoped that Zhou Guowei could give Zhang Youwei a lenient punishment, and it would be best if he could be released immediately.

…

In the interrogation room.

Zhang Youwei’s aura as a martial arts expert had weakened a lot. After all, Xu Pingqiu was sitting beside him. He was really too embarrassed to continue putting on an act.

Just when Zhang Youwei didn’t know what to speak, Chief Zhou took the lead and said with sparkling eyes, “Mr. Zhang, I must apologize for this. This is all a misunderstanding…”

“Ah?” Zhang Youwei was slightly stunned.

Why was Chief Zhou so polite?

Without waiting for Zhang Youwei to ask, Chief Zhou said with an embarrassed smile, “It’s like this. I think that although immortal cultivation might be too unbelievable, but what Mr. Zhang is practicing might be some Qigong-type cultivation techniques. In our country, of course, religious organizations are not allowed to be established and joined at will. However, there is absolutely no problem with Qigong. It is to strengthen the body, after all! Don’t you think so?”

After Chief Zhou said this, he looked at Zhang Youwei with a meaningful smile.

Zhang Youwei immediately understood. It seemed that Chief Zhou was on his side! As long as he described immortal cultivation as Qigong, everything would be fine.

After understanding the current situation, Zhang Youwei immediately nodded excitedly, “Yes, yes, yes. Look, I was too excited just now that I said the wrong thing. It’s Qigong! It’s not immortal cultivation!”

All of a sudden, the atmosphere in the interrogation room immediately became harmonious.

Chief Zhou said cheerfully,

“Since it’s Qigong, there’s naturally no problem. Old Ma, could you record a new statement for Mr. Zhang in a while? You must clear up the misunderstanding and clear Mr. Zhang’s name.”

Captain Ma Daqiang nodded repeatedly and replied, “Sure, sure…”

Then, Zhou Guowei coughed dryly and changed the topic, finally getting to his point, “However… Of course, I have to confirm this with my own eyes. After all, seeing is believing. I wonder if Mr. Zhang can show me what you’ve learned in person?”

Hearing this, Zhang Youwei was slightly stunned. Looking at the expression on Zhou Guowei’s face, he completely understood.

This bastard probably wants to learn immortal cultivation from me!

All of a sudden, Zhang Youwei was in a dilemma.

Although it did not sound like a big deal, what if Mr. Luo Xiu would not agree?
