The duty officer looked surprised but still politely responded, "I'm sorry sir, usury is considered an economic dispute, it's not within our purview."

Of course, they often received such calls, mostly about loan sharks using methods like physical assault, threats, and harassment to force repayment. There were also cases like Yan Fei who uncovered loan sharks, but unless there was physical or mental harm inflicted, the police couldn't possibly arrest someone based on the brief description of the 'case' that Yan Fei gave. This operator couldn't even bother to ask about the possibility of injuries.

"You... isn't usury illegal? Don't you arrest them?" Yan Fei stammered. He remembered seeing people who loaned money at high interest rates being arrested on TV.
