Chapter 92 Teacher Li (ETL) Part 1
===
Chapter 92 We saw her, there she is!
Mu Jingfei understood what Gu Ye meant, “You mean, I arrest that guy and give him a warning?”
Gu Ye asked with a smile, “If someone uses feudal superstition to cheat people out of money, should he be arrested?”
Mu Jingfei smiled, “Yes, he should. So let me know after you find him. Even if I’m not in the capital, I can contact my local colleagues.”
Putting on his shoes, Gu Ye got out of bed, “Thank you, big sister. But the main thing is that even if someone in this line of work is doing something against the will of heaven and earth, the proof can’t be handed over to the police as evidence. All we can do is report him as someone who spread feudal superstitions and used it to cheat people, which is also a helpless move.”
“It is illegal to cheat people with feudal superstition. A record would be marked under his name the moment he is sent to us. If he sells this thing to cheat people again, I will arrest him.”
At this point, Mu Jingfei added with regret, “If only the people from your industry could join the police force and set up a separate department to handle similar cases. Whether it is a scumbag or a bastard who has learned some skills but using it to harm people, it can be used as evidence. Then those guilty scoundrels could be arrested and sentenced. This will reduce a lot of crime.”
Gu Ye smiled, “Who knows what will happen in the future? But people like us can’t be exposed in the open.”
After hanging up the phone, the young policeman who was Mu Jingfei’s assistant sighed, “A rich second-generation, who catches ghosts and solves cases every day to redress injustices for people. He doesn’t get a penny of salary and does good deeds without leaving a name. Say, what do you think he wants? I heard that his friend is an orphan, and he runs around every day like him. It’s not for money or fame, what is he after?”
Mu Jingfei asked back with a rare friendly tone, “Why did you join the police force?”
“Of course, I hope to use the knowledge I learned hard in the right way and serve the people.”
Mu Jingfei thought of Gu Ye’s eyes when he was in a confused state (about the good and evil of humankind) and sighed, “Some people’s paths are decided from the beginning of what they learned, and they may not have a choice.”
The policeman didn’t understand a little bit. Gu Ye’s family is so rich, what can’t he do? Why can’t he decide? But seeing Mu Jingfei looking like she didn’t want to say more, the young policeman didn’t dare to ask.
…
The shrimp wontons made by Hong Dou in the morning were refreshing and fragrant. Gu Ye now has to carry a bag wherever he goes, bringing along his ‘family’. Also with this arrangement, he has helpers for assistance and good food to eat wherever he goes. As long as Yu Ze is not around, his ‘non-human’ family members could go out for a stroll. Yu Ze has already ordered people to renovate the upstairs so that these non-humans can live there and divide the rooms among themselves.
Gu Ye had almost finished eating. “I’ll go to the hospital to see Xie Cheng after breakfast. Other than that, I want to ask that buddy of his if he has found the bastard who sells ghost-suppressing knowledge/items.”
Hearing that, Yu Ze said in a deep voice, “I’ll send someone to find him so you can just go straight to the hospital.”
Gu Ye smiled, “You are so busy at work so don’t worry, I can do it myself.”
“No need to do everything yourself. If that person is nearby, I’ll ask someone to ‘invite’ him over and go to the hospital to find you. If he’s far away from here, I’ll just collect the evidence and pack him over to the police station.”
That made Gu Ye smile and he shared the wontons that he couldn’t finish with Yu Ze, “I’ll listen to you then. Thank you, love you yo~”
Yu Ze looked at Gu Ye seriously for a while. Then he suddenly said with a solemn tone, “Your tone is very much like my little nephew.”
“How old is he?”
“4 years old, kindergarten.”
Gu Ye’s mouth twitched, “Eat your meal!”
Before going to the hospital, Gu Ye asked Xie Cheng, “Patient, what do you want to eat?”
Xie Cheng said domineeringly, “Of course food for nourishing the body, I want to eat meat! I want big pieces of meat!”
Gu Ye was very considerate and bought roasted pig’s trotters and braised pork hocks for Xie Cheng. In order to make the diet balanced, he also bought a fruit basket. Yu Ze first sent Gu Ye to the hospital entrance and told Gu Ye, “Call me when you are done.”
Agreeing, Gu Ye took the opportunity to kiss Yu Ze on the mouth and got out of the car with a smile.
Xie Cheng drank a bowl of millet porridge and two eggs in the morning. His senior brother meant for him to eat something light to nourish the stomach. Seeing the meat brought by Gu Ye, Xie Cheng sent his second senior brother away and picked up a piece of roasted pig’s trotter to eat. The roasted pig’s trotter has crispy skin and soft melty meat inside. The fragrant filled his mouth after a bite. Xie Cheng was so moved that he almost cried, “After you left yesterday, my senior brother made me drink porridge. I drink porridge at night and continue to drink porridge in the morning. I feel like I can grow millet when I fart.”
Gu Ye said sympathetically, “Hold on for a few more days.”
“I can’t hold on even for one more day. At the moment, I can’t do anything, can’t do this, can’t move there. I want to be discharged from the hospital!”
“You don’t want to, just lie down.”
“I want to!” Xie Cheng was protesting, and the nurse came in, “What are you yelling about? Keep quiet in the ward. You can’t leave until the stitches are removed. Hold on for a few more days.”
Being told off by the nurse, Xie Cheng asked pitifully, “How many days?”
“At least a week.”
Hearing that, Xie Cheng ate meat with big mouthfuls of grievance, and the nurse was speechless, “You will be eating the same thing anywhere, why do you want to be discharged from the hospital?” Then, she glanced at Gu Ye and immediately changed to a gentle smile. She asked smilingly, “Master Gu, can you sign an autograph for me?”
Gu Ye was surprised, “I’m not a star.”
The nurse said excitedly, “You are the same as a star, I am your fan.”
Xie Cheng teased the nurse, “Are you thinking straight? Why are you obsessed with him?”
The nurse answered seriously, “He looks good! He can also tell fortunes!”
Xie Cheng was speechless, “You win.”
At noon, Xie Cheng ate the big pork hock again. He looked lively and energetic enough, except that his arm was hung with a sling around his neck and he couldn’t move. Even with 1 hand available, he wanted to play games with Gu Ye.
Gu Ye and Xie Cheng teamed up to play 3 rounds of game. But Gu Ye was beaten so hard that he almost became autistic. In a fit of anger, he refused to play with Xie Cheng anymore. Just when they had nothing to do and wanted to play a game of Gomoku, two people came to find Gu Ye.
One of the two men was in his twenties, handsome, calm, and serious. The other was in his forties, with a pointed face, squinty eyes, a small nose, and a greedy and lustful look. Gu Ye knew the younger man, he was the one who Yu Ze often asked to deliver things to him.
“Third Young Master, I have ‘invited’ the master you wanted to meet.” The young man winked at Gu Ye, and Gu Ye immediately understood what he meant.
Raised his eyebrows, Gu Ye asked in a slightly unbelieving tone while playing with his phone, “You are the one who sells spells and teaches people how to suppress evil spirits online? Can you really suppress ghosts?”
“Yes!” The man looked at Gu Ye’s clothes and squinted his eyes. Then he stared at Gu Ye’s delicate face greedily, and continued with a smile, “Don’t worry, my spells can definitely suppress a ghost. If it can’t suppress it, wouldn’t it be considered cheating? I will never do cheating business, that will be punished by Heavens.”
Xie Cheng felt the old man’s lecherous look was too disgusting and asked disdainfully, “Have you ever considered that it might be the soul of a good person that is suppressed?”
Xie Cheng has the appearance of a sunny/cheerful boy, unlike Gu Ye’s exquisite beauty. So the old man’s attitude immediately became much colder, and he acted like a distinguished master, “That’s not my business. I only sell my stuff to the destined person. How the destined person uses it and whether he will suffer retribution is his business. The so-called karma and reincarnation have nothing to do with me.”
Xie Cheng immediately wanted to jump up and give the old man a kick. If you don’t sell it, won’t this problem be cut off at the source?
Gu Ye lowered his head as many people had seen his face on the Internet. He was afraid that the other party would recognize him. He asked calmly while playing with his mobile phone, “How much do you want for a talisman?”
The master stretched out 5 fingers and said seriously, “5,000 yuan! But if you want to buy it, I’ll charge you 5,000 yuan for 2 talismans, hehe. I’ll give you one extra, as you are a destined person.”
Xie Cheng was disgusted and his face turned black, “Your business is good, you must sell a lot.”
“It’s not bad.” The other party was modest, but there was a little pride in his small eyes.
Gu Ye narrowed his eyes, “How much is the method to suppress ghosts?”
The other party rubbed his hands, “This method can’t be easily taught to anyone so if less than 30,000 yuan, it’s a no-deal.”
Gu Ye smiled and pointed his phone at the old man’s face, “Sister Mu, did you hear that? This liar asked for 30,000 yuan, and he cheated a lot.”
The master only reacted at this time that Gu Ye was just trying to trick him. He turned his head to look at the young man next to him in astonishment, “What do you guys mean by this?”
The young man looked like a normal silent person, but he was very agile. Instantly, he pinned the old man down with one move, “Third Young Master, how to deal with him?”
Gu Ye answered slowly, “Of course, you should send him to the police station. Check his criminal record, and see how much money he has earned in total. I estimate that the amount of fraud is enough for him to go to jail for a few years. Let’s see if he dares to cheat again in the future.”
“I didn’t lie!” The master realized that he was cheated, and struggled to say, “I’m telling the truth! I sell conscientious products! They are definitely not counterfeit or fake!”
Xie Cheng said with disdain, “You use feudal superstition to deceive people. You don’t care who are your customers, you only know how to make money. Who else can we arrest if not you? Send him away quickly.”
Not long after, Mu Jingfei’s people arrived. They handcuffed the heinous master and took him away.
After catching this guy, Gu Ye felt relieved. He then went to check out on the buddy who was supposed to find the fraudster, and both he and Xie Cheng were speechless. This guy was still lost on the road and even asked Xie Cheng to pick him up on his motorcycle.
The incompetency made Xie Cheng feel tired in his heart. He was so angry that he ate while calling his buddy, cursing, “Go and ask the police uncle to send you back, you idiot! How can you even lose yourself on the road?! You clown! I have given birth to you in vain!”
Gu Ye held his forehead, these two were also clowns.
Xie Cheng doesn’t need anyone to watch over him at night and the doctor meant to let Gu Ye go back at night. With Xie Cheng’s behavior, if Gu Ye is here, he will definitely not sleep at night and try to stay up as long as he can. Other than that, Xie Cheng is not having a disease that he cannot be moved, so too many people around will cause trouble.
Gu Ye could only leave, and let Xie Cheng stay here with a wronged look on his face, and returned home in the evening. As soon as he arrived at the door, his stepmother threw a golf club at his feet.
Bending down to pick it up, Gu Ye asked with a smile, not sure if to cry or not, “What’s wrong?”
Mrs. Gu said angrily, “You finally know to come back!”
Gu Ye coaxed in a flattering way, “What did my lil brother do to make you so angry? I’ll beat him up!”
Mrs. Gu stamped her feet in anger, “He only knows to play games! Until now, he hasn’t written a single word of summer homework, and he didn’t go to the cram school. When the tutor came, he coaxed them away. Is he still human?! Your father has been busy with meetings recently and has no time to mind him. Your two brothers don’t come home, and the brat doesn’t listen to anything I say! You don’t come home either! Can this family still be saved?”
“Of course! Who said we can’t be saved? I’ll take care of it!” Gu Ye quickly poured Mrs. Gu a glass of water to calm her down. He advised her kindly, “It’s not bad if he could play games well. Nowadays, e-sports can participate in international competitions. Winning is also a glory for the country.”
Mrs. Gu asked unhappily, “Can this occupation support one’s life expenses?”
“Yes, I heard that the team will pay the players a salary. He can also make money by doing live broadcasts.”
Mrs. Gu asked sarcastically, “Will he still be playing games when he is 30 or 40? Will he become an internet celebrity and live broadcast when he is 40 or 50? Will he still participate in competitions to win glory for the country when he is on crutches? Forget it!”
Gu Ye’s mouth twitched, “You think too far ahead.”
