Chapter 366: Chapter 366: Don’t Catch People_1 Chapter 366: Chapter 366: Don’t Catch People_1 As they were on their way, they encountered many villagers flocking to the scene with bowls in their hands. Life in the countryside was peaceful and serene, with mobs gathering even for ordinary squabbles; all the more for occasions like today when so many police had arrived to arrest someone.
“No, don’t arrest anyone. Don’t arrest my daughter.” Liu Yongxia was blocking the door, causing a ruckus, and rolling on the ground, grabbing and biting at anyone who tried to approach.
“Well, this is something I hadn’t yet witnessed!” Officer Liu was left dumbfounded.
She had decades of case handling experience, had seen all sorts of suspect family reactions, but what was unfolding before her eyes right now was indeed eye-opening. She was truly impressed by the tantrums thrown to this extent, with over a dozen policemen unable to break through after half an hour.
Jiuming’s face was also grim, while he didn’t want to harm anyone, he was now ready to have this shrew arrested.
“Ma’am, we just want to speak with your daughter.” A police intern, young and amicable, tried to persuade, “Don’t worry, ma’am. We absolutely won’t wrongly accuse anyone.”
Liu Yongxia, after crying and yelling for over half an hour, was also exhausted. Panting heavily, she leaned on her knees, her eyes glaring maliciously at everyone.
Nan Fei squeezed her way through the crowd and instantly spotted Jiang Yang and Guan Rufang standing nearby. She exchanged a look with Zhuanzhuan and walked over together.
Nan Fei took hold of Jiang Yang’s small hand, her heart finally at ease.
“Sister Nan Fei?” Jiang Yang looked up, revealing her neat white teeth.
“Why are you running around?” educated Nan Fei. “Next time there is such chaos, you are not to crowd around it, understand?”
Jiang Yang, with her clear black and white eyes, stared straight at Nan Fei, unresponsive for some time.
Fortunately, Nan Fei was used to this. She held Jiang Yang’s hand and greeted Guan Rufang. The grandmother looked somewhat frail. She whispered comfortingly, “Don’t worry, Grandmother!”
“Yes…” Guan Rufang sighed, already in deep despair. Regarding her daughter-in-law, she hadn’t heeded any of her advice over the years. When she first arrived, she wanted to understand the situation but was instead pushed back by Liu Yongxia.
Eventually, she also had to choose to keep silent.
Children and grandchildren have their own blessings. Those who are willing to listen to her, she would speak more and show more concern. If they didn’t want to listen, she would keep quiet and not be a nuisance.
At this time, Jiang Deding had also returned from his shift at the rural health clinic, when he saw the situation at his doorstep he was instantly stunned, “What’s going on?”
Upon seeing his return, Liu Yongxia lowered her head in guilt, not daring to look at him directly.
Jiuming stepped forward and asked, “Hello, are you Jiang Deding?”
“Yes, I am. May I know what all this commotion at my doorstep is about?”
“Well, we received a report that your daughter, Jiang Minmin, is related to a missing person case. We needed to find her to understand the situation, so please cooperate.”
“Missing?” Jiang Deding, who was overly concerned with his reputation, had his voice change upon hearing this, “How is that possible? My daughter is a considerate, honest girl, how could she be related to a missing case?”
“She’s just related, we need to ask her some questions. Rest assured, we will not wrong a good person.” Jiuming patiently explained.
“Impossible!” Jiang Deding looked around frantically, noticing that the neighbors who had once admired and respected him were now looking at him with contempt.
The more he saw, the more panicked and embarrassed he became.
