Eating Melons and Watching the Show in a Chronicles Novel

As a member of the working class, Lin Jingyu, a cargo registrar at a port, transmigrated to the early 1970s during her lunch break.

She unexpectedly discovered that she had entered a chronicl...

Chapter 382 Arrest her immediately!

“Zhitong, I came out of the restroom and just happened to see these two committing a crime. I caught them.”

Lin Jingyu nodded and pointed to the people in the carriage, "And these people were drugged and knocked unconscious by them."

After she pointed it out, everyone finally realized that something was wrong with the people in this carriage.

Sure enough, they all fell into a deep sleep and did not wake up.

Lin Jingyu continued, "They first stole the belongings of the people in this carriage, and then beat up this old man."

As he spoke, he gestured for everyone to look at the old man lying to one side.

Before anyone could say anything, she continued, "If you don't believe me, you can check the old man's body."

I intervened when they were discussing throwing the old man off the train.

"Nonsense, this girl is talking nonsense."

The young woman screamed in rebuttal, "She's with me. She's unhappy that she got less money, so she attacked us. Arrest her too!"

The young man shouted, "Yes, yes, she's with me! Arrest her!"

Upon hearing what the two said, everyone couldn't help but look at Lin Jingyu.

"Am I with you guys?"

Lin Jingyu was genuinely amused and exasperated. "Do you guys even have brains? Are you trying to get someone else to arrest me so you can escape in the chaos?"

She then calmly met everyone's gaze, saying, "I'm a sleeper passenger. Someone will come to find me soon, and then everyone will know who's lying."

Everyone could tell from her expression that she wasn't lying.

So they all nodded.

"You were always on my side."

The young woman still didn't want to let Lin Jingyu go and was determined to keep pressing her. "Don't believe her lies, everyone. If you don't arrest her, you'll regret it."

"Xiaoyu, how could you betray us?"

The young man glared at Lin Jingyu and said menacingly, "Don't think you can escape by betraying us. Don't even think about it."

"Xiaoyu?"

Lin Jingyu was both angry and amused when she heard the name the other party had made up. "You guys really have a lot of tricks up your sleeve to drag me down, but unfortunately they're not working."

If you dare to spout any more nonsense, don't blame me for smashing your stinking mouths first.

"You~"

"You dare?"

The two men, though outwardly fierce, inwardly blustered, began to reprimand each other.

Seemingly genuinely afraid that Lin Jingyu would harm them, the two involuntarily took two steps back.

Judging from their humble yet fearful appearance, most people present did not believe them.

"Please keep an eye on these two. I don't know if they have any accomplices."

Ignoring them, Lin Jingyu addressed the crowd again: "I wonder if there is anyone with medical skills who could come and check on the people in this carriage? Also, this old man has been drugged and beaten; we need to check on his injuries to see how serious they are."

"Xiao Zhitong is right."

The middle-aged man nodded and said to the other passengers, "Those who know medicine, come and help quickly. Also, everyone keep a close eye on these two guys."

Anyone capable of committing such a serious crime on a train is probably no ordinary person.

"I have medical skills."

"I can do that too!"

"Let me help them take a look too."

"I'm a doctor, I can help."

...

Six or seven people responded and came out.

They immediately began checking on the passengers who were unconscious.

"They're fine, they just passed out from taking sleeping pills."

"That's right, they are physically normal, but there is a slight effect of medication on their nerves."

"It looks like he'll wake up once he's had enough sleep, so it's probably nothing serious."

...

The onlookers felt much more at ease after hearing what the doctors said.

No one expected these two young people to be so bold.

One of the doctors came forward to examine the elderly man.

Sure enough, the old man's body was covered in purplish-blue bruises...

"The old man is also unconscious due to the effects of some medications. Fortunately, his injuries are not serious and he just needs to rest for a few days."

A middle-aged doctor examined her and then stood up.

"Lin, the educated youth~"

Upon discovering that the person was missing and had not returned for a long time, Su Jingtian had no choice but to go out and search for them.

As soon as he came out, he noticed a large group of passengers gathered around and immediately realized that something must have happened.

Unfortunately, there were too many people, and he couldn't squeeze in, so he could only shout, "Lin Zhiqing, are you alright?"

“Su Zhiqing, I’m fine.”

Hearing his voice, Lin Jingyu responded loudly in return.

Seeing this, the onlookers made way for Su Jingtian to squeeze through the crowd.

He came in and saw the strange scene before him, and couldn't help but ask, "Lin Zhiqing, what happened?"

"I went to the restroom and accidentally discovered..."

Lin Jingyu then recounted what had just happened.

"So that's how it is."

Su Jingtian nodded and looked at the two trembling young men beside him. "To be able to produce so many sedatives and still dare to commit murder for money, they must not be ordinary people."

"We all need to keep a close watch tonight; at the next stop, we'll hand it over to the police."

"Comrade Su is right."

The middle-aged man picked up the conversation, "I just don't understand why these two people would harm an ordinary old man when he doesn't look like he's from a wealthy family."

Furthermore, the old man wasn't wealthy; why would these two kill him to silence him?

Upon hearing his words, everyone couldn't help but look at the elderly man who had already been helped to sit down.

His weathered face was covered with wrinkles, like cracks in a parched field, bearing the marks of wind, rain, and the passage of time.
