Qian Liben immediately frowned. He had already given Lin Qiong enough face by not pursuing the issue of her hitting Zhao Tao, but Lin Qiong still didn't know when to stop. His face darkened instantly as he said, "Lin Qiong, you need to know when to advance and when to retreat. This is our Qingping Branch Bureau, and it's not your turn as the head of a police station to direct our work here."
Lin Qiong knew that Qian Liben was angry, and she calmed down a bit, replying, "Deputy Director Qian, I am not qualified to direct work here, but as a police officer, I cannot just watch my colleague engaging in coerced confessions, which is a violation of law by those who enforce it. For the reputation of our police force and the image of our officers in the eyes of the people, that's why I need to be here."
Qian Liben said sternly, "This matter will be dealt with by the leadership of our sub-bureau."
