Feng Zhi had to He Chaozheng mad words: “In this police station I am the sky, you are the fish on the chopping board, I am the knife hand to let me slaughter. We have a lot of development zones on this side, with sacks to pull you to the site buried no one knows. I find two people with AIDS to bite you, your life is over. I don’t believe that you people are not convinced, as you can see, I can always call the public security state security to fix you.”

He Chaozheng stressed, “Feng Zhi, as a police officer, what he did, all kinds of atrocities, seriously hit and insulted our personality and dignity, causing serious harm and shadow to us both mentally and psychologically, and indirectly physically. Such a person is still worthy of being a police officer of the people?”
