"I am talking to you. Are you mute again?" Hwang Dahai's face twitched from pain. Seeing that Hyunjin did not respond to him, he was angry all over again. He pointed the wooden dowel at Little Hyunjin, threatening him.

Lisa said to Jungkook, "Hurry up and call the cops. There's child abuse going on here."

Jungkook pulled out his cell phone obediently, and Lisa made the call holding his hand.

Someone picked up on the other end quickly. Jungkook handed the phone over to the bodyguard next to him and said, "Call cops. Child abuse."

The bodyguard was taken aback a little but quickly understood what Jungkook was trying to say. "Comrade Cop, someone is beating up a child here."

Hwang Dahai's face was swollen from the earlier beating. He wanted to assault Little Hyunjin again except that he was stopped by the bodyguard this time.

"And who the heck are you?" Hwang Dahai was infuriated. He had just been beaten up a while ago, and he was stopped again now. There was no way that he could not teach that little mute boy a lesson today.

"You are beating a child in the middle of the street, and I have already called the cops." Having said that, the bodyguard even recorded Hwang Dahai's vicious look with his cell phone.

Lisa was pleased with that.

Lisa's plan was to help Little Hyunjin locate his mother, hoping that it would perhaps improve his situation. Having witnessed how Hwang Dahai had raised the wooden dowel at Little Hyunjin, she regretted her earlier decision.

Another day of Little Hyunjin being with Hwang Dahai meant another day of suffering for him.

As such, Lisa had a change of heart and had Jungkook call the cops.

Hwang Dahai was stunned beyond words. Did the guy say he had called the cops?

The cops came quickly before he could even process the fact. They handcuffed Hwang Dahai, who was still holding onto the wooden dowel and took him to the police station with them.

One of the cops went over to Little Hyunjin and tried to hold his hand. "Don't be afraid, child. Mr. Police will protect you."

Little Hyunjin avoided their hand and dashed over to Jungkook on his two short feet. He threw his arms around Jungkook's long leg.

He then lifted his head and looked up at Jungkook. His big eyes blinked. As though he was unfamiliar with the act, he said in a muffled voice, "Bie bruder."

Lisa chuckled. The little boy was really fond of Jungkook.

Lisa accompanied Jungkook and Little Hyunjin to the police station.

Hwang Dahai, still intoxicated, complained loudly and brazenly. "I was the one beaten. Not only are you not investigating who did this to me, but you are also arresting me? Does that make any sense?"

"We looked into it. There were no surveillance cameras in the area."

"Then you go look into it, and arrest the person who had beat me up. What are you arresting me for?" said Hwang Dahai as he slammed on the table.

The bodyguard stepped in and testified. "We only saw this man holding the wooden dowel when Young Master and I arrived at the scene. He reeked of alcohol. It was very likely that he was the one who beat himself up."

"Bull crap. Why would I beat myself up?" rebutted Hwang Dahai.

The cop drummed on the table. "Control your volume. Our colleague had already examined the wooden dowel. The only fingerprints we found on it were yours."

Hwang Dahai was stunned. "How was that possible? Have I gone insane?"

The cop explained solemnly, "No, you are not insane. You were just so drunk that you hallucinated and beat yourself up. We brought you here to investigate the child abuse complaint."

The cops acted very quickly. "From our investigation, you are not the child's real father, and the two of you are not related."

Hwang Dahai said angrily, "He was brought into the marriage by my wife!"

"We've looked into that as well. You are single."

"My wife and I did not register officially. All we did was a banquet."

"Where is your wife now then?"

Hwang Dahai looked impatient. "Gone. She left the child behind and took off."

"We will need to verify that, but we have received the medical report for the child. He has several injuries on his body, which is strong evidence that you had been abusing him."

"I am his father now. So what if I had to discipline him when he did not listen. What is wrong with a father beating up his child?" Hwang Dahai raised his voice arrogantly. "I feed him and put a roof over his head. So what if I administered corporal punishment when he's naughty?"
