Chapter 23 Mr. Hugh Spade's Trouble
Dennis Herbers did not expect that the few prescription drugs he gave to the students of Holy Cross High School would make the Holy Cross High School Board of Trustees and the Parents Committee feel like enemies.
He just followed Tommy Hawke's instructions and gave a small amount of medicines to a few high school students who were not familiar with him as a gift to show his peers. Then on the third day, two policemen showed up in a police car. The school, take him from the school to the police station for questioning.
"So, boy, two afternoons ago, you sold these little pills to the students of Holy Cross High School, right?" Taking Dennis Herbs to the interrogation room, the police took out the Holy Cross High School Board of Trustees and called the police. The few prescription medicines that were brought over at that time were thrown on the table, and he shook his head depressingly.
If it wasn't for the private high school's board of directors and parents' committee calling the police, and even specially arranging a lawyer to keep an eye on the police, he must find out the ins and outs of the whole matter, so he wouldn't have to rush around because of twenty-five prescription drugs. None of the **** in the holding cell waiting to be questioned looked like more trouble than a high school kid from a trash high school.
"Sell? No, of course not, I gave it to them, they are my friends, I just gave them a gift." Dennis Hebbs responded to the police's inquiry.
A police officer looked at Dennis-Hebbs seriously: "We learned from those students that you did use the wording of gift and gift, and you didn't charge for it, but you should be aware of the dangers of this drug. , it’s not ice cream or a music album.”
"Hazardous? Of course not, what are you kidding, officer, these are not poisonous pills, they are Adelaer and sleeping pills, which are harmless to humans and animals. If you want to review your homework late at night without being affected by fatigue, you can take a few pills and you will be fine." You will be full of energy until dawn, and after you finish your homework, you will be able to have a comfortable sleep if you take sleeping pills."
"Why are you giving them this drug."
"Officer, you don't know me? Dennis Herbs, Lincoln High School Person of the Year, I'm flattered that the Prisoners of Fire rock band at Holy Cross High School invited me to their school concert, you know, those private The high school students used to be high-minded, but now, they have invited me to be my friend. Of course I have to show courtesy, so I chipped in and bought some gifts for them that I think they might need ...Well...I thought when they held a concert, they would take some pills to boost their energy like I did in Lincoln High." Dennis Herbs spread his hands to the police and said helplessly: "It seems that they don't like This kind of thing."
The police have already learned about the situation of the high school boy across the street through the school. Apart from liking to show off, he actually doesn't have many bad habits. Moreover, he has checked the file system of the Drug Enforcement Administration, and there is no trigger record of any drugs or prohibited drugs. There are only twenty-five prescription drugs on the table, so the police can only reprimand him, which is not even enough for formal registration, not to mention that this guy is underage.
At most, call Lincoln High School, let the school intervene in the follow-up procedure, and then let him go.
"Child, the way you make friends is a bit unpleasant. I think the whole Holy Cross High School refuses to be friends with you now." The policeman sighed, picked up the inquiry book on the table to end the conversation, and casually told Dennis He Burth asked what he thought was the last question: "So, you bought twenty-five prescription pills, right? Next time don't do this stupid thing again, this stuff will poison your brain, boy. "
"Twenty-five pills? No, I spent a lot of money to buy a hundred Adralar pills and fifty sleeping pills. I thought maybe the fans at the concert would also need to add to the fun, and that would be a good way to meet new people." place." Dennis Herbers said to the police with an ignorant and fearless expression.
The policeman, who was unscrewing the pen and preparing to write, suddenly paused and looked up at Dennis Herbers: "One hundred Adlar, fifty sleeping pills?"
"Yes, officer, I bought it for ninety-six dollars and twenty-five cents," said Dennis Herbers.
The policeman glanced at the medicines on the table: "There are only twenty-five pills here."
“The rest are in a locker at my school, and I’m going to bring them there when the concert officially starts.”
"It is impossible for you to buy so many drugs at a single time through a pharmacy or clinic. No doctor will prescribe such a doctor's order. Who sold it to you, kid." The police closed the inquiry book.
Dennis shrugged: "Mr. Hugh Spade, he is very nice, but he likes to raise the price."
…
Hugh Spade sat at the desk, closed the lesson plans he had just finished, and breathed a sigh of relief.
In the past few days, he felt that his life had returned to normal, and the woman Melonie paid him another hundred yuan, which made Hugh Spade use the money to buy a newest baby thermostat and a silver coin. Quit, I plan to visit my child's mother on her birthday and give it to her as a gift, to see if there is a chance to make the other party change his mind, marry him, give the child a complete family, and the most important thing is to end this miserable single life today.
In this way, I don’t have to be forced to withdraw the money from the salary account by the Child Protection Bureau, and can enjoy the social benefits brought after the birth of the child.
"Mr. Spade, are you busy now?" A white-haired janitor knocked on the wide-open office door and asked Hugh Spade, who was taking a nap inside, with a smile.
"Of course not, Mr. Shire, what am I... Oh..." Before Hugh Spade finished his greetings with the other party, a police officer appeared outside the door, which surprised him.
The janitor pointed to the policeman, and introduced to Hugh Spade: "There are two police officers who want to see you."
"But I only saw one." Hugh Spade's nervousness flashed across his face, and then he said with a smile: "Have you lost your way in our beautiful garden-like Sinclair Elementary School? Please come in and sit, police officer."
"Another police officer, went to the principal's office to find out about you, Mr. Hugh Spade." The policeman seemed to be in his forties, with a vicissitudes of life, and walked up to Hugh Spade with a deadpan expression on his face. Staring at him, he lightly tapped the police rank on the three silver olive branch bars on his shoulder with his fingers: "I'm Lenny Cotton, a detective sergeant of the Warwick Police Department."
Hugh Spade swallowed nervously, and tried to smile: "What's the matter, Mr. Sergeant?"
"When we were admonishing a high school student, we learned that he bought some addictive psychotropic prescription drugs from you three days ago. We would like to ask you to return to the police station to cooperate with the investigation. This is a document signed by the chief of the Warwick Police Department , you can keep it for yourself." Lenny Cotton took out a piece of paper from his pocket and handed it to Hugh Spade.
Hugh Spade cursed secretly in his heart, but he immediately regained his senses: "Mr. Police Officer, as far as I know, even if I sold some prescription drugs, it was at most admonishing and putting me on the list that needs attention. It doesn't need to be like this." With great fanfare."
Lenny Cotton glanced at the gift that Hugh Spade put on the table to give to his girlfriend when he got off work: "The latest electronic thermostat bottle warmer? Forty-seven dollars, as far as I know, if you don't have a part-time job , according to your income, it should be impossible to afford this thing.”
"Mr. Police Officer, you have to maintain enough respect for me. I am a teacher, not a criminal." Hugh Spade thought he understood drug control, and that little drug could not be a reason for the police to treat him like this, so his tone was not kind. shot back.
Lenny Cotton nodded noncommittally: "I understand your feelings, but all the members of the Holy Cross High School Parents Committee obviously don't think so, the drugs you sold almost made those proud of heaven addicted to drugs, and, you I really think that selling 150 controlled prescription drugs at a time is just a reprimand? Maybe there will be reprimands, but not just reprimands. First of all, you have to go back to the police station with me. I will give you the greatest respect. Before I treat you as an elementary school teacher instead of a drug dealer, don't force me to take the drug dealer away, obediently cooperate and go out, get in the police car, now."
