Chapter 787: Chapter 538: First Glimpse of the Spinoff (2)

...

In the small town.

Song Ziyu was overwhelmed with work when he received a call from David, who reported a conflict at the Quarry.

"Xiaoyan, I need to go there first," Song Ziyu put down the files in his hand, "David said there is a fight at the Quarry..."

"I’ll go with you!" Qiao Xiaoyan was also reviewing an autopsy report, trying her best to sketch the murder weapon as close to the real thing as possible.

Together, they headed to the Quarry, and upon arrival, saw two groups of people fighting, everyone ready to hurl hammers at each other.

"Stop!" Song Ziyu barked sternly, "What is this all about?"

The Quarry owner quickly spoke up: "Mayor, you’re here. These people won’t start work, claiming it’s bad luck because of a death. I say that’s superstitious nonsense..."

"That’s not the truth. The truth is the owner accepted David’s money, what’s this called? Bribery..." the other side started shouting, "Of course, you speak for David. The case isn’t solved yet. How can we resume work? This will bring disaster to our town!"

The Quarry owner’s face turned red, indeed, David, eager to resume work sooner, had indeed given him money to persuade the workers to restart.

But no secret can be kept forever, and somehow this matter had spread among the other workers.

Song Ziyu looked towards David, who seemed embarrassed but did not deny it.

As a result, the two factions were on edge again, ready to continue their brawl.

"Everyone stop first!" Qiao Xiaoyan hurriedly intervened, "The case involving the death is under investigation, work will certainly resume, and the case will be solved..."

"Who do you think you are? Ever since you came, our town has been plagued with homicides, you all brought this bloody disaster..." Someone slammed a hammer down, sending shards flying toward Qiao Xiaoyan, with stone pieces striking her forehead.

Qiao Xiaoyan couldn’t dodge in time, and felt a sharp pain on her forehead...

"What are you doing?" Suddenly a loud roar erupted as a motorcycle drove in. Bai Ye held up a gun and then rushed to Qiao Xiaoyan’s side, "Does everyone want to be thrown into a cell, want to have a ’tea chat,’ huh?"

Su Tianqing quickly ran to Song Ziyu’s side, "Ziyu, are you alright?"

"I’m fine, check on Xiaoyan..." Song Ziyu quickly turned to check on Qiao Xiaoyan.

Qiao Xiaoyan held her forehead, and Bai Ye took her into his arms, "If anyone dares to touch her today, let me see!"

Qiao Xiaoyan lowered her hand, blood was flowing from her forehead.

Bai Ye instantly became furious, "Who the hell hurt her just now, stand the hell out!"

At that moment, no one dared to make a sound!

Bai Ye fired a shot into the air, "No one’s going to stand out, is that it? Then I’ll haul you all off to jail!"

Originally a group disturbance, most people were just onlookers, but no one wanted to end up behind bars.

So, a burly man who had harmed Qiao Xiaoyan was pushed out.

Song Ziyu used a handkerchief to cover Qiao Xiaoyan’s forehead, Bai Ye stepped forward and kicked the burly man. Although the man was strong, he was no match for Bai Ye, who had a police background.

With that kick, Bai Ye directly hit the man’s knee, and the burly man knelt down...

"The police are using violence..." the man immediately yelled out.

"Come on! Let’s see how tough you are..." Bai Ye put his gun back at his waistline, "What kind of man are you to hit a woman? Men who hit women are cowards! If you’re so tough, come at me. I’m in charge of this case. Whether the murderer is found or not is my responsibility. What skill do you have by harming a woman?"

Seeing Bai Ye truly kick the burly man several times, Qiao Xiaoyan quickly interjected: "Enough, Bai Ye, stop messing around! I’m fine, solving the problem is more important, don’t make things worse! You’re a police officer, you shouldn’t hit people!"

"I might as well stop wearing this police uniform!" Bai Ye snapped, feeling extremely frustrated over the Chen Chen case, and now seeing the villagers causing trouble and harming Qiao Xiaoyan, he really couldn’t understand, are policemen born to be slaughtered by others?

Qiao Xiaoyan remained rational, stepping forward and pulling on the hem of his clothes: "Alright, stop saying such angry words at this time! Let him go!"

Bai Ye let go of the burly man, "You must apologize to her!"

"I’m sorry, Miss Qiao..." The burly man had no choice but to bow and apologize.

"That’s enough, everyone disperse! Stop the commotion." Qiao Xiaoyan covered her forehead with one hand and pulled on Bai Ye’s clothing with the other. In that moment, looking at Bai Ye, she saw a very attractive radiance in this young policeman.

No matter how young he was, no matter what decisions he had made, there is always a split second when the radiance of humanity is utterly captivating.

Bai Ye stretched out his hand and lifted her up.

Qiao Xiaoyan struggled slightly; she had never been so close to someone before.

"I’ll take you to the hospital." Bai Ye whispered in her ear, knowing how much she loved to look good, she definitely could not afford to have any scars.

Actually, Qiao Xiaoyan could have walked; she wasn’t that fragile or pretentious.

But having someone willing to indulge you, allowing you to show your vulnerability in his arms, turns out to be a rare blessing.

After Bai Ye took Qiao Xiaoyan away, the crowd seemed to stir a bit.

After all, Bai Ye was the one with a gun, and the word "police" has always had a deterring effect.

But as Bai Ye left, the agitated crowd began to stir up once again, as if rekindling.

Just as Song Ziyu was about to speak, Su Tianqing pulled her aside, signaling her not to talk, he would handle it.

At that moment, Su Tianqing grabbed a hammer, and his sharp gaze swept the restless crowd; perhaps it was too menacing, and they gradually calmed down.

"Are you accustomed to solving problems with violence, yes?" Su Tianqing’s indifferent voice rang out, "Very well, who’s next?"

As soon as Su Tianqing spoke, he snapped the hammer into two pieces with one hand!

This display of power immediately dumbfounded everyone.

The villagers just thought he was the largest investor from among the investors, young and thin, nothing more than the visage of a Spoiled Rich Kid from the city.

Who would have expected that he seemed to have a mastery of secret skills, even capable of breaking a hammer in half with his bare hands!

Even Song Ziyu didn’t know that Su Tianqing could perform magic tricks!

Others thought it was Kung Fu, but Song Ziyu knew better, where would he have any Kung Fu skills, he’s just a Spoiled Rich Kid!

He must have used some kind of illusion, making it seem as though he was a peerless master concealed among ordinary people!

With this intimidating move, nobody dared to move.

Once Su Tianqing’s sharp eyes swept over the crowd, he finally said: "You all know who I am! I’m the one changing your town! Without me, there would be no ongoing construction of your town! You may maintain your superstitious rights, the Mayor has never asked you to change anything, but how dare you lay hands on our people? I absolutely have the power to make your town even poorer than it was before!"

Not a single sound came from the crowd, who after many poor years, finally saw a glimmer of hope.

In recent days, they have already tasted some of the city life, and when it comes to money, Su Tianqing has never been stingy.

"I can build schools for you, and I have the power to destroy them; I have the capacity to build your town, and also the power to demolish it; I can allow you to live like city folk, and also ruin the happy life you yearn for!" Su Tianqing said arrogantly.

"I never deny that I don’t have that many benevolent thoughts for this world, I’m a businessman, and I speak in terms of business," Su Tianqing continued, "The only person who can make me invest in building this town is just one person, and that is her!"
