Chapter 1: The Male Protagonist Who Is a Victim of Domestic Abuse Turns Out to Be an Online Writer

"Name?"

"Shen Fu."

"Age?"

"28."

"Occupation?"

"Internet novelist."

"So, unemployed."

Shen Fu became anxious, "Internet novelist is also a profession! We start paying taxes from 800 yuan, you might not love it, but please show some respect!"

The police officer said, "Shen, don't get worked up, the bandage on your head might come off."

Shen Fu adjusted the bandage on his forehead, sighed deeply, and sat back down.

"Now tell me, who beat you up like this?" The officer continued taking the report.

Shen Fu: "I didn't come here to talk about my head. I'm here to find my wife!"

"What's wrong with your wife?"

"My wife cracked my head open..."

"So it's about your head, isn't it? It's domestic violence then. Don't worry, times are different now. Gender makes no difference, if a woman beats a man, that's considered domestic violence too. We will handle it."

"It's not about the domestic violence; it's that she ran off after hitting me and she still hasn't come back. I'm really worried about her!"

"Oh, then that's a missing person case. Has it been 24 hours yet?"

"Uh..."

"Don't lie to the police, okay?"

"No, I came to report it right after treating the wound, just three or four hours ago. I'm anxious! I can't reach her through any contact methods, and I've asked all her friends and colleagues!" Shen Fu grasped his hair, his face filled with concern.

The officer explained, "Actually, reporting doesn't require a full 24 hours, don't be misled by those TV dramas. For missing children or elderly, you should report immediately. Whether or not a case is opened, the missing person's information as well as the search details will be uploaded to the police platform, which helps to promptly recover the missing person. Here's a little practical life tip for you."

"Ah, then I want to report a missing person, my wife is missing!"

"However, your wife is neither elderly nor a child, not meeting the mentioned criteria. Unless you can prove there's danger to her personal safety or that she may be trafficked or harmed, we still can't file a case immediately." The officer smiled.

That smile seemed to say: Hehe, just kidding~

"So what exactly should I do? I'm really worried about her; she's been acting very strange!" Shen Fu said somewhat frantically.

The officer suggested, "Then let's report domestic violence. That way, we can file a case immediately, and after we find her, you can choose to forgive her or not."

Shen Fu thought to himself: Of course, I'd forgive her!

Without much hesitation, Shen Fu asserted, "I want to file a report, my wife abused me. Please apprehend her as soon as possible!"

"Describe your wife for me."

"Her name is Bai Xiaodie, 21 years old..."

"Quite young, huh~"

"Xiaodie works for a bank..."

"And here I thought she was a boxer~"

"We met in college; she graduated from Qinghua University..."

The officer suddenly showed respect, "So did you?"

"No, I was just a tourist passing by Qinghua."

Officer: "Stick to the point, tell me how the fight started."

"It was during the noon break when she suddenly changed, acting as if she didn't know me at all. She picked up the water glass from the bedside table and smashed it on my head and kicked me twice, luckily not hitting anywhere vital."

The officer frowned, "Did she say anything?"

"After she had me subdued, she first wrapped me in a quilt, covering my body..."

"Hold on," the officer found a blind spot, "Were you not wearing any clothes at that time?"

Shen Fu: "Mmm, I just finished taking a shower."

"Who showers in the middle of the day?"

Shen Fu suddenly became shy, "I was sweaty and sticky~"

The police officer's ears perked up, "In broad daylight, under the blazing sun, you guys were?"

Embarrassed, Shen Fu said, "We're newlyweds after all, and today just happens to be our 99th day."

It must be nice to be young!

The police officer waved his hand in irritation, signaling Shen Fu to continue.

"After she knocked me down, she pinched my chin, looked me over coldly for a moment, then said with a strange, icy tone: 'Sorry for the heavy hand, go to the hospital yourself, you have health insurance, right~'" Shen Fu recalled, imitating her tone, "Then she just walked away."

The police officer pondered for a moment, "So do you have health insurance in your line of work? What about a pension?"

"That's not the point, big brother!"

"Ahem~" The police officer tapped his pen and asked, "Did you do something rough to your wife, causing her to be repelled? Forcing a woman within marriage is also prohibited by law."

"No, absolutely not!" Shen Fu defended, "Our relationship is very good, it's like that between the main male and female characters in a romance novel, sweet enough to drip with oil. Ordinary friends don't even dare to come near us, there's bound to be public displays of affection within ten meters."

"Good relationship but still got beat up like this, your wife doesn't have any mental health issues, does she?"

"What you're saying... my wife is very healthy, and she's a double-degree student at Qinghua, a former top scorer in the provincial college entrance exam!" Shen Fu wouldn't allow anyone to slander his darling Xiaodie.

The police officer thoroughly reviewed the case records, then started fiddling with the computer, "Your home address, and the time of the incident, I'm going to check the nearby surveillance footage."

Shen Fu: "Zijin Garden, Building 2, Apartment 1101."

"Oh, a high-end residential area, huh? That apartment wasn't cheap, was it rented or inherited~"

"Bought."

The police officer paused his movements, "Writing novels makes that much money?"

"It's okay. I sold a right, and then bought the house with cash."

The police officer looked at Shen Fu seriously, tall and handsome, with hair even more luxurious than his own!

He had felt a bit of sympathy for him for getting cracked open by his wife, but now, sympathy was gone!

Sympathy is only for the weak, and he! Does! Not! Qualify!

"This is your wife, right?" The police officer quickly identified the suspect, evidently beautiful just from the surveillance footage.

"Yes, that's her. Why does she walk so dominantly?" Shen Fu frowned as he watched Bai Xiaodie's striding walk.

"What's wrong with that? My daughter walks like that too," the police officer countered, "How does your wife usually walk?"

"Like a delicate young girl would, very ladylike, very elegant." Shen Fu described.

But the way she walked wasn't important, "Where did she go after that?" Shen Fu asked again.

"Don't rush, I'm looking at it," the police officer said, tracking Bai Xiaodie using the SkyNet system, "She entered a pharmacy, then left, and the medicine in her hand is..."

After pausing the video to zoom in, the police officer squinted to see, "What is this?"

"Jin Yuting." Shen Fu provided the answer, recognizing the box.

Xiaodie was still young, so they had agreed to wait a couple of years before having children. Usually, Shen Fu took precautions, but occasionally, in the heat of the moment, Xiaodie had to take the trouble.

This noon, he was a little carried away~

After leaving the pharmacy, Bai Xiaodie took a taxi, and from there the work to track her became more daunting, but there was a shortcut.

The police officer called the taxi company directly, located the driver by his plate number, and asked if he remembered picking up a beautiful young woman with long hair, even sending him a photo of Bai Xiaodie.

"I remember, I remember, left a deep impression. I asked her where to go, she said she didn't know and told me to just drive around, then we circled for two hours, but in the end, she didn't shortchange me on the fare."

Shen Fu snatched the police officer's phone, eagerly asking, "So where did she get off in the end?!"

The driver thought for a moment, "It seems, it seems to be Zijin Garden Residential Area, that really expensive Zijin Garden!"

(This is the author's first time writing a solo female lead novel. Those who like harem stories will also find it suitable. Hopefully, it satisfies most people. What's the most important thing for a new book? Ranking, ranking, and damn, it's ranking!)
