Mrs. Mark's house was rented by a couple, and they were also in arrears with the rent. They paid one month's rent as usual when they rented the house, but they did not pay anymore and have been in arrears for more than ten days.
Wang Bo shook his head and said: "You should ask him to pay half a year or a year's rent in advance. One month? This is too short."
He paid half a year's rent in Kyoto back then, and it was a world-class big city with a large flow of people and a huge demand for rentals. Once a house became vacant, it could be rented out quickly.
In a small town like this, with so little traffic, it is difficult to rent a house, so according to common sense, try to extend the lease period as much as possible.
Mrs. Mark said helplessly: "It is customary to pay one month's rent in advance, especially since there are not many people coming to rent a house in the town. I want to reduce the financial burden, so I can't wait to rent it out."
"How much is the rent?"
"Four hundred and fifty dollars a month."
"It's so cheap." Lao Wang sighed.
Indeed, the rent is considered cheap. Mrs. Mark probably lost money instead of making money by renting it out, because when renting a house in a New Zealand town, you cannot rent out an empty house. It must be equipped with all kinds of furniture and appliances.
The couple who rented the house had not been in arrears with the rent for a long time. They did not damage the furniture, appliances or the house, and they did not commit violence against Mrs. Mark and the children.
However, they did not care about hygiene. According to New Zealand's rental agreement, the tenant is responsible for keeping the house clean and tidy. The couple did not care, littering, throwing away their clothes and supplies.
In order to keep the house tidy, Mrs. Mark had to work part-time as a nanny and housekeeper. She already had a hard time going to work every day, and she had to do a lot of work to clean up the house, which was really tiring.
Another point is that the couple is very noisy. They don't go to work and are night owls. They often have to be noisy until two or three o'clock at night before going to bed.
The houses in the residential area are all modular houses. Due to the materials used in this kind of house, the sound insulation effect is not good, so couples make trouble upstairs, and Mrs. Mark and the children cannot rest well.
Hearing this, Wang Bo asked: "They can make noise until two or three o'clock? What kind of noise are you talking about? Between lovers?"
Because he wasn't very familiar with Mrs. Mark, he couldn't ask too openly. If the couple could play bed games every day until two or three o'clock, Lao Wang would be willing to take them to live in the castle and learn a few tricks from the man.
Mrs. Mark understood what he meant and shook her head: "No, no, they like to play messy things, such as music, watching movies, making phone calls, playing video games, etc."
"This is disturbing the people. Why didn't you call the police in advance?" Wang Bo didn't understand.
Mrs. Mark said in surprise: "Isn't nuisance only for disturbing the neighbors? I understand that if a tenant disturbs the landlord, it does not constitute a crime of nuisance."
Wang Bo didn't know this. He had never dealt with the problem of noise nuisance when he came to New Zealand.
It was not easy to litigate in this way, so he had to decide to go and have a look and understand the details before making any plans.
After passing through several small alleys and a small garden, we arrived at Mrs. Mark's home.
"Are they home?"
"I haven't gotten up yet at this hour." Mrs. Mark said helplessly.
Wang Bo entered the house and walked directly upstairs. At the same time, he shouted: "Police, someone complained that you did not reasonably perform your obligations as a tenant... Uh, who are you?"
As soon as he went upstairs, he saw two handsome young men sitting sleepily on a tatami. They were wearing couple's pajamas and were surrounded by a quilt, so their relationship was obvious.
Before the two of them could answer, Lao Wang quickly turned back downstairs and whispered: "Hi, Mrs. Mark, are these couples both men? Are they gay?"
"Yes, oh, didn't I tell you?" Mrs. Mark asked strangely.
Of course I didn't say it, Wang Bo cursed in his heart.
Remembering that she had forgotten to introduce their names, Mrs. Mark added: "The one with yellow hair is called Glenn Burns, and the one with brown hair is called Conrad Burns."
Lao Wang took a breath, holy shit, they even have the same last name, are they married
No matter what, he had to solve this problem. After taking a few breaths to calm down, he went upstairs again and said: "Two gentlemen, please put on your clothes and go downstairs. I have something I want to find out through you."
The brown-haired young man was older and looked a bit like the handsome Hollywood boy Pitt. With a cynical look on his face, he said, "Handsome, what have you agreed on here? Why do you have to go downstairs?"
Wang Bo looked around. He really didn't want to stay here and said that the upstairs was too dirty and messy. They didn't stay in the room even though there was a room. They actually spread a tatami in the living room upstairs to sleep.
However, he could understand that the doors of the surrounding rooms were open, and there were a lot of things thrown around in a mess, including moldy and hairy snacks, torn books and newspapers, dirty clothes, and some obviously used condoms and wet items. toilet paper.
To be honest, Lao Wang is not a particular person, and he didn't pay much attention to hygiene when he lived alone. But looking at the environment now, he really had the urge to run away.
Showing the majesty of the police, Lao Wang smashed the handrail of the stairs with his police badge several times and said sternly: "Get dressed quickly and come down. I have something to ask you. If you don't cooperate, then I can only arrest you for obstructing official duties." !”
The two young men were not very personable people. They stood up after hearing the threat, but the brown-haired young man was not wearing pants, revealing a black thing dangling there...
Lao Wang retreated.
The yellow-haired young man Ge Lan was a little jealous. He stretched out his hand and patted him gently and said, "What are you doing? You promised to be loyal to only me in your life. Are you attracted to the handsome black-haired guy now?"
Lao Wang went downstairs faster.
Later, the two of them put on wrinkled clothes and walked down. Wang Bo saw the two of them and said crisply: "Hello, gentlemen, you have now violated the house rental agreement and caused harm to the house. I hope You move out of this property immediately.”
Of course, after saying this, Lao Wang knew that it would be useless. Best tenants usually ignore such "weak" verbal warnings from the police.
Sure enough, the two of them didn't care about his words at all. The brown-haired young man smiled and said: "I think you misunderstood, handsome policeman. By the way, your uniform is really handsome. I rarely see police officers wearing such a temperament."
Lao Wang likes to hear compliments, but he really can't listen to this handsome guy's words.
The yellow-haired young man was dissatisfied and pushed his lover beside him, and said angrily: "Conrad, this is not a bar, put away your damn tenderness! He wants to drive us away, do you understand? He wants to drive us away !”
Conrad shrugged and said: "Why evict us? Okay, I admit that we are not very timely in paying the rent, but it is not yet the two-week extension period, right? We will pay it before then, police You don’t have to worry, sir.”
