"That woman did it first. It was their fault. What's there for us to worry about?"
Evie has always been an optimistic person. She's not as worried as I am.
"I hope so. I'm overthinking things."
I frowned slightly and told myself in my heart, "Maybe I really think too much. The police station is a fair place, and it will certainly enforce the law impartially."
Soon, the four of us came to the police station in a police car. Two policemen took me and Evie to the interrogation room, while Gabriel and the woman were taken to the other side.
Evie and I sat on a chair in the interrogation room. Two young policemen were sitting not far away and watching us. They didn't seem to want to ask us questions.
"Officers, it was that woman who started it. We are in self-defense."
Seeing that the two policemen didn't ask us anything for a long time, Evie took the lead to speak.
"It's not up to you to decide who acted first. You should be quiet now!"
One of the young policemen looked at her expressionlessly and reminded her in a cold voice.
"You brought us here to ask about what happened to us. How can you not let us talk?"
Evie frowned unhappily and looked at the policeman with dissatisfaction in her eyes.
"This is the police station. I told you to be quiet, so you have to be quiet. Why do I have to listen to you here?"
The young policeman was a little impatient, and his tone of speaking to Evie became colder and more unkind.
Evie's temper was also very explosive. She stood up angrily and wanted to say something, but I stopped her.
I shook my head at her and gestured for her to sit down. This is the police station, not a place where we can make trouble at will. If we intervene in the work of the police here, even if we are reasonable, we will ignore it.
Although Evie was impulsive, she still listened to me. When she saw the look in my eyes, although she was angry in her heart, she did not say anything.
We were sitting in the interrogation room. No one left us, and no one asked us what we were fighting for. It seemed that everyone regarded us as air.
I felt uneasy. I wanted to call Dylan again, but before I entered the interrogation room, my mobile phone had been confiscated. It was difficult for me to find someone to help me now.
After a long while, the door of the interrogation room finally opened, and two policemen came in. They went straight to me and Evie, and put something like a confession letter in front of us.
"Sign your words on it and press your fingerprint."
One of the policemen put the brush and mud in front of me and Evie, signaling us to sign.
I didn't sign it immediately. I frowned in confusion and looked at the contents on the paper. When I saw that it was written that Evie and I had deliberately committed a crime of assault, I got angry immediately.
"What is this? Why is it written here that we deliberately hurt people? It was the woman who hit us first. We are self-defense!"
