252 Don’t Call the Police

Zhao Wan seemed to be frightened. When she heard the police’s question, she subconsciously shrank into her mother’s arms. Then, she shook her head and said in terror, “No, I didn’t see it.”

The police officer stood up and looked at the Zhao family’s parents seriously. “Since the child is conscious, please bring her back to the police station with us. We want to extract DNA to identify the perpertrator.”

“Okay!” Father Zhao seemed to have suddenly aged ten years. The hair at his temples was white, and his eyes were sunken. The corners of his eyes were still wet with tears. “Officer, you must catch that beast!”

“Don’t worry about that.”

The police officer patted Father Zhao’s shoulder comfortingly and squatted down again to look at the trembling Zhao Wan. He smiled casually and said, “Little girl, don’t be afraid. Follow Uncle to the police station, okay? Let the police auntie do a detailed checkup, okay?”

Zhao Wan shook her head vigorously and stole a glance at Dong Chang, who was sitting by the side. Suddenly, she lost control of her emotions and grabbed the things near her and threw them at him.

The policeman did not expect this teenager to suddenly throw a tantrum. He was so close that he could not dodge in time. He was hit by the porcelain cup and his forehead immediately swelled up.

The female police officer quickly went to check on his injuries. She glared at the girl anxiously. But when she saw the girl’s dazed and helpless expression, she could not get angry.

How could they blame a little girl who had just been violated?

Father Zhao did not expect his daughter to hit the police. He quickly helped the policeman up and bowed apologetically. “I’m sorry, I’m sorry. Wan Wan must be suffering from shock. She definitely didn’t do it on purpose. We’re willing to compensate for any injuries she has caused. Please forgive the child.”

The police officer who had been hit on the head waved Father Zhao aside. He asked Father Zhao to bring the child to the police station for a checkup as soon as possible.

Father Zhao nodded repeatedly in agreement. He turned around and gently coaxed his daughter out of his wife’s arms.

This middle-aged man was usually rather rough, but he was always gentle when he spoke to his daughter. “Wan Wan, listen to Daddy. Mommy and Daddy will bring you to the police station, okay? Daddy will help you put on your shoes.”

“I don’t want to!” Zhao Wan suddenly struggled violently. She was so violent that even Father Zhao could not hold her.

Zhao Wan was as slippery as a carp. She turned and huddled under the blanket again. She curled up in the corner and stared at them in fear.

Even the police were completely stunned. They had never seen a victim so resistant to going to the police station.

The policewoman and the captain exchanged glances and saw suspicion in each other’s eyes. They naturally felt that the young lady might be intimidated by the criminal, so she did not dare to report him to the police.

Such situations had happened before, especially among these inexperienced and underaged girls. When they were violated, they would often choose to swallow their anger. Even the parents of some children would pretend that nothing had happened because they were afraid of losing face and being the subject of gossip.

However, they did not know that this would only fuel the arrogance of the criminals and cause more girls to be victimized.

This was exactly what the policewoman was worried about. She slowly sat by the bed, maintaining her distance from Zhao Wan. She maintained a safe distance from her so that Zhao Wan would not be too nervous. Then, she gently advised, “Little girl, you have to listen to your parents. You have to believe that no one can hurt you as long as your parents are around,.”

Zhao Wan did not say anything. Her eyes were fixed on the corner of the room, and she did not react to her words.

The female police officer did not give up. She pursed her lips and quickly organized her thoughts. She continued to say gently, “Wan Wan, listen to me. Look at your father. Isn’t he very strong?”

Her voice was too gentle, as if it could instantly dispel the painful memories that kept flashing through her mind.

Zhao Wan could not help but listen to her. She raised her head to look at her father, who was in so much pain that he wanted to die. Then, she slowly nodded.

The female police officer smiled and patted Father Zhao’s shoulder. “Look, you know that Daddy is strong, so why are you still afraid of bad people? Daddy and the police are so powerful, we will definitely be able to protect you.”

The captain of the criminal police put down the towel that Mother Zhao had handed to him to clean his wound. He patted his chest and promised her, “Wan Wan, don’t worry. Uncle will protect you until we catch the bad guy.”

Tears shimmered in Zhao Wan’s eyes. Under everyone’s expectant gazes, she opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but she did not make a sound.

“I’ll protect Wan Wan too!” Dong Chang could no longer sit still. He rushed to the bedside and looked at Zhao Wan fervently. “Wan Wan, from today onwards, I will guard your door every day and not let any strangers approach your house.”

The policewoman was amused by this silly boy, but she also sighed at the deep love between him and Zhao Wan.
