Chapter 219: Officer, I Didn’t Break the Law, It’s Useless for You to Look for Me!
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“Is there something you need from me, officer?” Zhang Zehao frowned as he faced the policeman in front of him. He had been about to take his girlfriend out for dinner when they were unexpectedly stopped by a police officer. At this moment, his mood was far from pleasant.
Of course, nobody feels good when approached by the police. First, he considered whether he had committed any criminal activities. Then, he contemplated the possibility of being the victim of a scam. Lately, there had been an increase in fraudulent cases, and even the local anti-fraud department had been investigating various citizens. Zhang Zehao couldn’t help but wonder if something was amiss.
Had he truly fallen victim to a scam?
■’Mr. Zhang, there are some matters I’d like to discuss with you,” Su Xuan spoke with a serious expression. After his conversation with the system, he decided to continue with the investigation. As he delved deeper, he realized that something was amiss.
Zhang Zehao…
He was selling blood!
Engaging in the illegal trade of blood bags from unregulated clinics to sustain his livelihood.
No wonder they hadn’t gone to work for so long, yet they still had money to spend.
And Deng Jingjing, the girl, even thought that Zhang Zehao was using his savings from the past few years. She had wondered more than once why her boyfriend’s money hadn’t run out after so many years.
But in reality, it was the money Zhang Zehao earned from selling blood.
Of course, if Zhang Zehao had been selling his own blood, Su Xuan might not have investigated further.
In Su Xuan’s original world, illegal blood trafficking was a criminal offense. Especially methods like Zhang Zehao’s, where he sold blood to unregulated clinics, could lead to other patients receiving potentially contaminated blood It was considered illegal blood trafficking, a criminal activity.
However, the law in this world wasn’t as comprehensive, and it didn’t explicitly state that selling blood was illegal. Su Xuan understood that this act was illegal in his homeland, but here, he couldn’t use it against Zhang Zehao.
The crucial point was that Zhang Zehao wasn’t selling his own blood. Selling one’s own blood was already against the law, let alone illegally trafficking someone else’s blood. In his world, such actions could result in up to five years in prison plus fines. And if someone like Zhang Zehao, who had the other party unaware of the situation, made them sell their blood, it could result in at least ten years of imprisonment.
In a sense, Deng Jingjing could be considered a blood slave, someone exploited for her blood by Zhang Zehao.
Su Xuan detested people who exploited innocent individuals for their own gain.
I did sell blood, so what?” Zhang Zehao responded nonchalantly. “Have I broken any laws? There’s no regulation that says selling blood is illegal. Even if I sold my girlfriend’s blood, so what? She did it willingly! We both don’t have jobs now, and she’s eating so much and getting so fat. With all this extra blood in her body, what’s wrong with using it to support our lives?”
Facing Su Xuan’s questioning, Zhang Zehao acted as if he had nothing to fear, as if Su Xuan wouldn’t do anything to him.
Legally speaking, he hadn’t broken any laws. From a moral standpoint…
He believed he hadn’t violated any moral principles either. After all, his girlfriend had willingly agreed to it!
He had tried to dissuade her before, but it was futile!
As for the blood-selling, it was originally something he had mentioned to Deng Jingjing herself… There was no need to hide it!
Wait, Deng Jingjing still believed that she had been donating blood all along, and she was quite pleased with it this time!
Zhang Zehao didn’t see anything wrong with keeping this from his girlfriend. He allowed her to think she was donating blood, considering she was quite overweight, and these extra blood donations could bring in some money to support their lives. What was the harm in that?
“I say, officer, isn’t it a bit bothersome for you to get involved in this matter’” Zhang Zehao remarked. “My girlfriend and I are doing just fine. We don’t need you meddling in our affairs. You’ve finished questioning, haven’t you? Well, I’m leaving then!”
After his statement, Zhang Zehao walked away confidently, leaving Su Xuan standing there, taking a deep breath.
“A bang!” freewe(b)novel.com
A pile of legal documents was slammed onto the table with force. These legal papers had been untouched for so long that they even kicked up a cloud of dust as they landed on the desktop.
Su Xuan’s action caused the dust to scatter, and it made Zhou Qiang and the others cough as they were caught off guard.
“Cough, cough, cough…”
“Su Xuan, what are you doing?” Zhou Qiang asked. “Are you planning to review legal documents all of a sudden? Weren’t you investigating something? How did it turn into a cramming session for laws?”
“Is everything okay, buddy? Your complexion doesn’t look too good,” Zhou Qiang added, concerned.
Su Xuan looked at the pile of documents on the table and let out a cold chuckle.
I refuse to believe that I can’t find a specific violation by the other party!” Since his arrival in this parallel world, Su Xuan had encountered criminals who had directly violated the laws. The system even provided clear sin value for their guilt. Moreover, laws weren’t vastly different from those on his original world.
However, he now realized that there were still some differences in the laws between the two planets. It was only natural that there would be variations between two different worlds, even in parallel dimensions.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, he decided to thoroughly study legal system of this world.
Seeing Su Xuan’s determined and cold expression, Zhou Qiang, who had intended to ask what had upset him so much, thought better of it. He sensed that Su Xuan’s emotions were on the verge of boiling over. If he asked now, he might receive a scolding. So, he decided to let Su Xuan tackle this issue on his own.
Saying this, Zhou Qiang grabbed his own files and headed out. The office was filled with too much smoke, and he couldn’t stand it any longer…
Meanwhile, Su Xuan was completely engrossed in going through a pile of documents. He hadn’t even noticed that his partner had been scared off.
On the other side, Deng Jingjing was curious about why a policeman had come looking for Zhang Zehao.
“Zeze, what’s the matter with the police looking for you?” Deng Jingjing asked, sipping her milk tea with a puzzled expression.
Zhang Zehao, who was in the middle of ordering food for Deng Jingjing and preparing to pick it up later, paused for a moment and put on a gentle smile.
It s nothing,” he said. “Remember I bought something online before? He thought I got scammed, so he came to check on me.”
Jingjing, this honey-glazed chicken is pretty good, would you like some?” he asked.
Deng Jingjing, who had been feeling confused, was easily distracted and nodded immediately.
“Yes, I’d love some!” she replied.
Zhang Zehao raised his head, his expression still gentle, but a hint of disdain flashed in his eyes.
She’s eating so much like a pig?
Soon, he forced a smile.
Well, eating more means more blood, right?
Alright, I’ve placed the order. You can wait here,” Zhang Zehao said.
“Should I go pick it up?”
Deng Jingjing didn’t sense any of her boyfriend’s disdain, and she happily nodded.
“Okay!”
“Zeze, you’re so good to me!”
