Though Tang Yiyi doubted Pudding’s words, she still followed Pudding’s advice to synthesize basic biofertilizer. She mixed it with nutrient soil according to the ratio and sorted the purchased vegetable seeds into the mini planting room. Calling it a planting room is an overstatement; in reality, they were just planting pots with transparent lids, entirely incomparable to professional planting rooms.
However, the lid is fitted with small bulbs and spray devices that can simulate sunlight irradiation. They also water or apply nutrient solution at intervals, saving much effort.
Tang Yiyi deliberately cleared an empty room to place these mini planting areas. As she sowed different vegetable seeds, she couldn’t help but feel a hint of anticipation.
Unfortunately, she didn’t awaken the Wood Ability, so she couldn’t stimulate the plants to grow. She could only hope the synthesized biofertilizer would be as effective as the system claimed. Apart from that, she had no other solutions! God knows how, since childhood, she had never once planted anything!
Online news changes rapidly. Following the scapegoating of several of Xiong Wei’s subordinates, idle netizens began another round of discussions about superpower users and ordinary people. Some even initiated a vote, arguing ordinary people receive poor treatment, and the government should improve their treatment.
Tang Yiyi couldn’t be bothered with those messages, but there was one thing she paid attention to. Since the court issued its case filing statement, Qinghe Third Hospital stood up to acknowledge their mistake and announced those involved. But just recently, these people not only refused to admit their guilt, they also began claiming online that they hadn’t been bribed and insisted the injury was serious, denying any wrongdoing!
Regrettably, most netizens were discussing the ordinary people versus superpower users topic. After these people’s statement appeared, it caused minimal impact, just making a small splash before sinking.
Still, some people saw their statement, and deliberately went to berate them fiercely!
Soon after, police officers suddenly mobilized and arrested all these individuals. Furthermore, Qinghe News sent out reporters to film the scene, taking the opportunity to redeem themselves.
Because of the previous interviews, compounded by Li Yuan’s later scandal, Qinghe News’ reputation was falling. Broadcast news either plummeted in views or received immediate scrutiny and curses. Some even spent all day on Qinghe News’ website, campaigning for a "boycott," causing severe financial losses for the company!
Helpless, they tried hard to clean up their image to change public sentiment toward them.
This time, Qinghe News not only followed up on the arrested medical personnel story but also launched a new special feature on the relationship between ordinary people and superpower users. With cautious planning, it gained quite a bit of goodwill.
Tang Yiyi knew Qinghe News’s background was solid. She alone couldn’t possibly overturn them. Besides, the one who plotted against her was Xiong Wei; Qinghe News, Qinghe Third Hospital, and the police station were merely tools bribed and exploited. She had no need to make enemies of these groups, letting Xiong Wei profit!
Moreover, with Li Yuan already arrested, losing such a useful pawn, she couldn’t find an appropriate person to target Qinghe News for now.
She stopped targeting Qinghe News and instead discussed with Lawyer Zhang, who then submitted an application to the court for injury verification for the victim. His application was reasonable, so the court couldn’t refuse it. Furthermore, Qinghe News, upon receiving information, sent people to live broadcast the event.
This time, without interference, the entire injury verification process progressed very smoothly. The final result indicated the victim only had a calf fracture, not a severe injury, and the fracture had already healed.
Once the results came out, complemented by the car accident video Tang Yiyi deliberately posted online, how this "fracture" occurred became exceedingly clear!
The court didn’t delay, swiftly convening to hear the case, broadcasting the whole trial process live! Tang Yiyi and Sun Jian attended as plaintiffs, while other involved individuals, except Xiong Wei, were brought to the defendants’ stand.
Unexpectedly, several of Xiong Wei’s subordinates, who had already confessed, suddenly recanted in court, loudly claiming they acted under Xiong Wei’s orders. Not only that, but they also produced evidence!
With the court openly hearing the case, Xiong Wei personally attended, originally believing everything was under control. He hadn’t expected such a major issue would arise at this critical moment!
Those bastards dared to change their testimony in court! Did they care nothing for their family’s survival?
But as pieces of ironclad evidence were presented, Xiong Wei became flustered, unable to think of anything else! The trial was live-streamed, allowing many online to witness the court proceedings, including Xiong Wei’s evidence, all seen clearly by many!
He could only blame himself for bad luck. Though he was a Second Level Superpower User with some standing in Qinghe City, his status and position were incomparable to true "nobility!" This time the Tang Family case involved too many, harming the reputations of Qinghe News, Qinghe Third Hospital, and the police station! Those behind these forces held grudges since evidence was conclusive; they couldn’t confront the spotlight-drawing ’Tang Xiao’ at this moment. Instead, Xiong Wei, whose crimes were revealed, naturally became the object of their vented anger!
Ultimately, if it weren’t for Xiong Wei eyeing ’Tang Xiao’s’ recipe, attempting to seize it by force and bribing individuals, how would they have become implicated?
Thus, with Xiong Wei’s subordinates recanting, the evidence documenting his crimes surfaced, prompting the judge to demand Xiong Wei’s explanation, showing no leniency! Initially, Xiong Wei refused to admit guilt, but soon a new piece of evidence emerged. It was a video showing the safe rescue of several of Xiong Wei’s subordinates’ families by police!
With the video revealed, Xiong Wei realized he’d truly lost this time. Unwilling to surrender, he started fighting in the courtroom, intending to escape! But with the opposition prepared to vent their anger on him, they had made full preparations; how could they let him flee?
As soon as Xiong Wei took action, police officers lying in ambush surged forward, surrounding him tightly!
Tang Yiyi retreated to the side with others, her eyes fixed on the scene of Xiong Wei battling the police. As a Second Level Power Enhancement Superpower User, Xiong Wei was seasoned in combat, exuding a destructive aura once he started fighting. The surrounding tables and chairs were all smashed to pieces by his fists, even injuring police officers! (To be continued.
