“Hah, you dare resist with violence?!”
The captain took a large stride forward as he saw a member of his team hit. He overlooked Auntie Ren who was fuming with rage while gritting her teeth.
My dad was worried things would become more troublesome than necessary, so he blocked himself in front of Auntie Ren. He was 183 cm (TN: ~6ft) tall, but still felt inferior in front of the captain. You could easily tell when you compare the thickness of their arms.
“Eh? Are you protecting this prost.i.tute? Did you guys fall in love overnight?!”
He held onto my dad"s shoulder and shoved him to one side, “Move out of my way!”
Auntie Ren also felt he was being meddlesome and also pushed my dad and said “Get lost!”
He soared backward onto the bed due to their combined strength.
The reporter from Dong Shan News, Zhao Yao, quickly held the mic towards my confused father and asked:
“What are your current thoughts? Do you have anything to say?”
My dad said while trembling: “You guys… claim we"re involved with prost.i.tution, but we"re both fully dressed!”
The captain crossed his arms and said proudly: “You guys must have already finished and gotten dressed!”
“That"s right.” Zhao Yao said in agreement, “Look, you"re only wearing a vest and shorts, it"s clear you only dressed half-way!”
My dad spoke as if he suffered unjustly: “You claim it was prost.i.tution, but I didn"t give her any money!”
The captain pointed to the envelope left near the bed by Auntie Ren, “Isn"t that it? Let"s see how much is inside!”
Someone pulled the bills out and counted, “Report! Captain, it"s a total of ¥2000!”
“That"s evidence, give it to me!” The captain elatedly reached out, “Hmph, I never expected your fees to be this high!”
“That"s… I never gave her that!” My dad struggled on top of the bed, “You guys got it wrong! That"s the money she gave me!”
All the brigade members, including Zhao Yao, began to laugh.
“Ha ha ha, are you saying she came to visit you? Take a look at your clothes and your disheveled appearance. Even if a young wife was lonely, they would never call you!”
A crooked cross-eyed brigade member with looks inferior to my dad laughed and said: “Even if a beautiful and young married woman was looking for a man, they would find someone like me! My mom loves me the most!”
As Auntie Ren saw my dad was about to be handcuffed as her accomplice, she was fed up. With a turn of her body she was somehow able to s.n.a.t.c.h back the brown envelope. In a flash, two more brigade members fell down while foaming at their mouths.
“d.a.m.n! She"s a motherf.u.c.king devil!” The vice-captain yelled, “Brothers! If we can"t even take care of a single prost.i.tute, the narcotics team will look down on us again!”
No s.h.i.+t! Even if you guys do take care of a buffed prost.i.tute, how can you compare to the narcotics team? They actually fight against drug traffickers with real weapons and put their lives on the line! How can you guys even call yourselves cops when all you do is hara.s.s prost.i.tutes and their clients!
The brigade members all pulled out a thick black police baton, but their captain believed in his strength and laughed, saying there was no need to make a fuss over a minor problem.
“There"s no need. We"ll be laughed at if we can"t even take care of one prost.i.tute with this many people —— the people from the news station are all watching!”
He raised both his arms that were wrapped with muscle and showed off his body like a bodybuilder, then he faced Auntie Ren and said:
“I recommend you to surrender and ask for leniency! Your fees are pretty expensive, so you should have earned a decent amount of money. You should try to find yourself a husband while you don"t have any wrinkles…”
‘Ptooey", Auntie Ren accuractely spat on the captain"s left eye. The captain was enraged, so he spread out his arms and barreled towards Auntie Ren like a large black bear.
There were tens of people in the room, so it was very crowded. However, Auntie Ren moved forward rather than backwards. She struck the captain on his lower abdomen and almost forced him to puke out his dinner.
Since he bragged in front of subordinates, the captain had to endure the pain and once again lumbered towards Auntie Ren. But his yell was not as loud and clear as before, and it also contained a hint of a miserable wail.
Auntie Ren tripped one of his feet and added another strike on his back. Her moves used the force against him and he did a perfect flip in mid-air and went towards the back of my father who was trying to get off the bed.
“f.u.c.k!” My dad was suddenly flattened by the idiot and swore in the heat of the moment. The reporter wasted no time to point the mic towards my dad and ask, “May I ask how it feels to have the Captain on top of you? Do you have anything you want to say to your child?”
“Wait!” The vice-captain suddenly furrowed his brows and stopped everyone who was about to encircle her. She pointed to Auntie Ren and said, “I… I think I recognize you. Aren"t you the martial arts director for that dud film, Miss Ren HongLi?”
“Huh? She"s a celebrity?” The brigade members all froze on the spot and quietly exchanged whispers.
Auntie Ren slightly calmed down after she struck the captain, she said to the vice-captain and other members:
“Hmph, I never knew there would be brigade members interested in martial arts. I thought you didn"t need martial arts to take care of people who aren"t even fully dressed! I did take part in that movie and I agree it"s a c.r.a.p film. But before you guys move, you should know I"m also the female MMA world champion!”
When she revealed her t.i.tle, all the brigade members trembled and cursed themselves for poking a hornet"s nest. On the contrary, the reporter Zhao Yao"s eyes shone beams of radiance.
He left behind my dad who was struggling underneath the captain and quickly rushed next to Auntie Ren. She pa.s.sed over the mic and asked:
“May I ask Miss Ren HongLi, are you currently extremely angry?”
Auntie Ren nodded, “Very angry!”
It was as if Zhao Yao became one of Auntie Ren"s relatives and could sympathize with anything she said.
“Miss Ren HongLi, you once made an enormous contribution to our country, yet this is how they treat you. Do you feel like it"s unjust?”
“Eh? Maybe a bit if you put it like that…”
“No! Miss Ren, you"re too kind!” Zhao Yao yelled with grief, “You were once the MMA champion, but how you have fallen. It"s painful to see!”
“Um… Even if I did take part in that c.r.a.p film, do you have to say I have fallen? It was only because a friend asked…”
Zhao Yao completely ignored Auntie Ren"s explanation and pa.s.sionately faced the camera with tears rolling down his face, “Everyone! Do you remember how former Olympic weightlifting champion Zou ChunLan had to work at a public bathhouse as a ma.s.seuse after she retired?”
“Now… the same tragedy has repeated itself!” Zhao Yao gestrueed towards the stupefied Auntie Ren and asked the cameraman to give her a closeup.
“Even though Miss Ren HongLi won the female MMA world champions.h.i.+ps, but since she doesn"t have the support of the sports department, she could only be a call girl! What a tragedy! A systemic issue! This is a problem with our country"s system!”
He pa.s.sionately pointed to my dad who was squished under the captain and said angrily:
It was this b.a.s.t.a.r.d! This bookworm who used 2000 and used his dirty body part to taint Miss Ren"s physical body —— what a tragedy! And the one who caused it was the sports department! It"s a problem with our system!
Not only was it just my dad and Auntie Ren, but all the other brigade members were all stunned from Zhao Yao"s rant. He wanted to keep speaking, but Auntie Ren sent kicks to send the mic in his hand flying, she also kicked the camera.
Zhao Yao dived with his body to protect the camera as it fell towards the ground, but Auntie Ren supplemented another kick and split the camera in half and Zhao Yao also fainted from the pain.
Before he lost consciousness, he took out a recording pen from his pockets and handed it to the cameraman.
“Xiao w.a.n.g, you have to pa.s.s this to the station manager. Tell the station manager I tried my hardest…”
Auntie Ren reached out her hands without emotion and the cameraman tactfully pa.s.sed recording device to her.
It was probably because Auntie Ren had many playwright friends, so she was used to using recording devices. She pressed a few b.u.t.tons and erased all the data inside.
Although the whole incident was due to the brigade"s mistake, many people were still hit and injured by Auntie Ren (including the reporter), so the nearby police station sent multiple officers to contain Auntie Ren and my dad in their room until further instructions.
“I"m not afraid of them.” Auntie Ren said, “I"m worried the news might spread into my daughter"s ears.”
She hesitantly played with her cellphone, “My old man has been the physical advisor to multiple mayors, if I give him a call, the problem would be solved in the blink of an eye. But I haven"t spoken to him in a long time, if I beg him now, he"ll defintiely mock me….”
On one hand she was worried about the issue getting larger, and the other she was worried about being forced to stay in the same room with my dad overnight. Auntie Ren was as anxious as a cat on a hot tin roof.
My dad suddenly had a bright idea, “My friend often gets caught by the anti-p.o.r.n brigade. It"s always our president —— The HHH enthusiast club —— who helps him out. Why don"t we give him a try?”
Auntie Ren looked at my dad with contempt: “You have a friend who often gets caught by the anti-p.o.r.n brigade?”
