Hearing this, Chen Guan turned to look at the two people beside him and smiled awkwardly.
"It seems the habit of charging for stamps in our Guangling countryside hasn't been completely eradicated yet."
Then he took out his police ID and said, "Hello, we are from the Guangling City Public Security Bureau, here to investigate a case."
"Are you the village head?"
Upon hearing it was the Public Security Bureau, the elderly man quickly nodded, looking tense, and raised his hand, saying, "I am the village head, sorry, officer, I thought…"
Before he could finish, Deputy Director Chen Guan said: "No need to explain, we're not here to deal with your stamp fees today."
"However, I must remind you that charging for stamps is absolutely not allowed. You are on the national payroll and should be doing real work for the people."
"Nowadays, rural areas are mostly left with elderly people and children with little money, and yet you charge for stamps here."
