My happy life in a courtyard house with triplets.

Chapter 194: Call the Police to Arrest Xu Damao

He Yushui and Zhang Lei walked quickly and soon entered the police station.

Watching He Yushui go inside to call the police, Zhang Lei stood at the door and couldn't help but sigh inwardly:

"To be honest, He Daqing is more decisive. If it were Yi Zhonghai, he would definitely have to consider this and that, afraid of offending people, afraid of affecting the relationship with the neighbors, and in the end, he would drag it out and might have been fooled by that kid Xu Damao."

Thinking of this, Zhang Lei couldn't help but shake his head.

Yi Zhonghai, that easy-going guy, seems fair, but he's actually very indecisive and often messes things up at crucial moments.

He Daqing, on the other hand, is ruthless and doesn't talk much. To avenge his son, he directly sets up a trap. As soon as he gets the evidence, he immediately calls the police to arrest people. This is the kind of person who does big things.

Soon, Zhang Lei saw the police officer on duty and He Yushui come out together, and quickly followed them.

The police officers showed no surprise when they saw Zhang Lei, which meant that He Yushui had already explained everything inside.

Zhang Lei glanced at He Yushui, and the two exchanged a knowing look. They then quickly led the police back to the courtyard house.

When the police suddenly arrived at the He family's dinner table, everyone immediately realized that it was time to "close the net." They dared not utter a sound, for fear of getting into trouble.

Meanwhile, Xu Damao, still drunk, was banging on the table and bragging: "Drink! Keep drinking! Anyone who doesn't drink is a coward!"

Seeing Xu Damao's hopeless state, the police officer in charge was also at a loss.

At this moment, He Daqing stepped forward and calmly recounted to the police the details of the scheme he had set up that night, as well as Xu Damao's drunken confession.

After listening, the police officer frowned slightly and looked at He Daqing, saying, "What you did was not wrong; you wanted to protect your family's safety. But he's so drunk right now, these words are just drunken ramblings, they can't be taken seriously, and they can't be used as direct evidence."

He Daqing laughed and said to the police officer, "Officer, I know these drunken words can't be considered conclusive evidence. But he just said who he hired to do it. The main reason I called the police is to ask you to investigate. Since Boss Dongcheng's men were involved, this matter can definitely be found out."

After hearing He Daqing's words, the policeman nodded, agreeing with his reasoning: "Alright, so what do you want to do now?"

He Daqing said with a smile, "Why don't you ask again?"

At this moment, the policeman walked up to Xu Damao, patted his face, and asked sternly, "Xu Damao, wake up! Are you sure you hired someone to do He Yuzhu's injury?"

Xu Damao groggily raised his head and saw the uniformed police officers. Although he was a little dazed, the alcohol was taking effect, and the rage he had just felt hadn't subsided. He stiffened his neck and roared, "I did it! So what? I spent two hundred yuan to cripple him!"

Upon hearing Xu Damao's words, which were completely identical to He Daqing's, the police officer's face immediately darkened.

He turned to his colleague behind him and winked: "Go get a basin of cold water and splash him awake!"

Soon, a basin of ice-cold water was poured over his head.

Xu Damao jolted awake, sobering up almost instantly. He jumped to his feet, staring at the policeman in terror, and stammered, "What... what's going on? Officer, I... I haven't broken the law!"

He Daqing looked at him coldly and said, "Xu Damao, shouldn't I be asking you that?"

Hearing He Daqing's cold tone, Xu Damao's heart skipped a beat, and his mind raced as he tried to recall what had just happened.

Seeing that he was still pretending to be stupid, He Daqing reminded him, "You've already mentioned what happened with Zhu Zi, don't mind repeating it again?"

Upon hearing the word "pillar," Xu Damao was struck dumb, instantly understanding.

He glared at He Daqing, shouting angrily, "He Daqing! You set me up! You invited me to dinner on purpose just to trick me into telling you something!"

He Daqing didn't speak, but just looked at him coldly, his eyes full of mockery.

The police officer stepped forward and looked sternly at Xu Damao: "Xu Damao, you already confessed everything while you were drunk. Now that you're sober, I'll ask you one more time: Did you injure He Yuzhu? And did you hire the henchmen of Boss Dongcheng?"

Seeing that he couldn't hide it any longer, Xu Damao decided to go all out. He slammed his fist on the table and roared angrily, "Yes! I did it! What are you going to do about it?"

Upon hearing this, He Daqing's anger flared up instantly. He stepped forward and slapped Xu Damao hard across the face.

With a sharp "smack," Xu Damao was knocked back.

He Daqing pointed at his nose and cursed, "Xu Damao! Don't you know how my son treats you? How could you treat him like this?"

The slap jolted Xu Damao completely awake. He covered his face, paused for a moment, and then suddenly burst into laughter like a madman, laughing until tears were almost streaming down his face.

"Why do I do this? Of course, it's for revenge!" Xu Damao shouted hysterically.

Upon hearing the word "revenge," everyone looked at each other, puzzled.

Liu Haizhong couldn't help but ask, "Revenge what? You two may bicker, but it's never come to this!"

Xu Damao suddenly turned his head, staring intently at Liu Haizhong, and continued with a bitter smile, "Of course it's revenge!"

Seeing everyone's confused expressions, Zhang Lei coldly spoke up, cutting to the chase: "Xu Damao, are you saying... Sha Zhu also broke your thing?"

Xu Damao shuddered, as if a sore spot had been hit. He nodded weakly, then squatted down and burst into tears, wailing, "That bastard Sha Zhu! He's been kicking me in the groin since we were kids! When I went to the hospital for a checkup, the doctor said mine was already broken, completely useless, and totally worthless!"

As he spoke, he cried and laughed at the same time, appearing as if he were insane.

Everyone was completely stunned by what they saw and stood there at a loss for what to do.

Even He Daqing was stunned. He never expected that Xu Damao's hatred for Shazhu was because of this.

Looking at Xu Damao's pained and desperate expression, He Daqing frowned and asked in a deep voice, "Are you telling the truth?"

Xu Damao raised his head, his face streaked with tears, his eyes filled with resentment, and roared at He Daqing, "Of course it's true! Would I joke about something like this? If Sha Zhu hadn't been so cruel to me, after all these years as neighbors, would I have done this to him? I was forced into it!"

Hearing Xu Damao's words, everyone couldn't help but sigh, never expecting that there was such a hidden story between the two.

At this moment, even He Daqing fell silent. He opened his mouth, but ultimately said nothing.

The police officer standing nearby glanced at Xu Damao and said sternly, "Now that you're sober, come with us and tell us everything that happened."

After saying that, the police led Xu Damao outside.

Seeing Xu Damao being taken away, everyone lost their appetite and left the He family dejectedly.

He Daqing stood at the door, watching Xu Damao's departing figure, and remained silent for a long time.
