"Hands up, hands up!"
A large number of officers surrounded the yard.
Shao Ming dropped the stick in his hand, just as the last person had finished.
Bai Mei was also taken care of by Zhuo Ma.
People in the yard were lying on the ground, crying for their parents and wailing for help.
The sight was so dreadful that it was unbearable to witness.
The people still standing all raised their hands.
Shao Ming didn’t care; they had already taken all the weapons away. At worst, it would be causing injury, not murder. They might just need to compensate for medical expenses. Those people had priors, it went without saying, the outcome would definitely be in their favor in the end.
The team leader whispered to the commanding officer.
That commanding officer suddenly noticed An Zhiyuan in Bai Xiao’s arms.
He hurried over.
"Are you Chief An?"
Their orders had been to spare no effort in searching for the missing Chief An. They did not expect to find An Zhiyuan here, let alone in such a state.
An Zhiyuan was already able to speak. After narrating the events from start to finish, the commanding officer wished he could kill this group of people on the spot.
Bai Mei grabbed onto a comrade, "Comrade, you must do us justice. We are just ordinary citizens. They attacked us with weapons. With daylight above us and under these heavens, is there no law left? Their danger to society is immense. You must arrest all of them, especially Bai Xiao, the ringleader. We all heard just now, it was her who ordered these people to attack us."
With a blind eye and broken limbs, she managed to grab hold of someone, indeed with great difficulty, but they were police, she could see and hear, even if death were imminent, she was determined to drag Bai Xiao down with her.
Bai Xiao was so ruthless, seeking such extreme revenge on An Zhiyuan; this woman was truly cruel.
"Who are you?"
The commanding officer was genuinely surprised to see a woman among these people.
Especially after An Zhiyuan identified her as the leader, that changed everything.
"I am Bai Mei. I was coerced by Xiaodao. If I didn’t follow him, he would kill me. I had no choice as a weak woman. What could I do? But I’ve never done anything bad, there’s not a single trace of blood on my hands."
The commanding officer laughed. My goodness.
She was really good at whitewashing herself.
"Whether you were coerced or not, with so many witnesses, we will find out the truth. We will not let a single criminal off, nor will we wrongly accuse an innocent person. Take them all away."
"What about them?"
Bai Mei wasn’t foolish; these people didn’t seem like they intended to bring the culprits to justice. She couldn’t let it end like this for nothing.
"Them? What have they done? They are exemplary citizens who have shown civic courage and cooperated with the police. This time, they’ve helped us crack down on a major criminal gang. They are respectable citizens; we will commend them for their actions," said the SWAT team leader, watching Shao Ming’s subordinates who were cooperating with the SWAT officers to carry these people out.
"Comrade, how can you do this? You’ve clearly seen them put us in this state. They were about to kill us, yet you’re covering for them, you are..." Bai Mei was hysterical.
"Comrade, if you feel wronged, feel free to complain to my superiors once you’re back. We’ve only acted in strict accordance with the law and regulations, without any abuse of power or nepotism. The claims you’ve made will be thoroughly investigated once we return. When we arrived here, we did not see any of them committing acts of violence. Comrades, has anyone witnessed anything?" the commanding officer asked all the personnel.
"No, it was like this when we arrived at the scene. We didn’t see any weapons, nor did we witness anyone committing a violent act."
All personnel answered loudly.
Bai Mei passed out.
