Shu Ting brought the police, and Ruan Ruan also happened to take some dry clothes for Zi Yi to change into first.
When the two policemen saw that it was the old woman again, their brows furrowed tightly.
The old woman had someone to rely on, so she was not afraid of the police. She shouted at the top of her voice about how her nephew had been maliciously pushed into the water and had caught a cold and was frightened, and asked the police to take charge of the matter.
The two policemen looked unhappy. After listening to the old woman's rant, they turned to Ziyi and asked, "Young comrade, tell me what you have to say."
Ziyi had changed into dry clothes and his hair was half dry. He didn't look as disheveled as before. When he saw the police officer questioning him, he took a step forward and recounted what had happened in a frank and collected manner.
The old woman wanted to jump up and down, but she realized her knees were hurting so much that she could only point at Song Ziyi and curse, spitting. "You little bastard, you're so naughty at such a young age. You just keep making up lies. It was clearly you who pushed my grandson into the water. How dare you deny it?"
Song Ziyi snorted coldly, "I didn't push it, so what am I admitting?"
Song Yun patted Ziyi's shoulder and said, "Ziyi, don't be sad. This forest is big and there are all kinds of birds, but there are always more good people. Things like this are rare. Don't be discouraged by encountering such people. In the future, when we see someone in need, we should help him if we can. One bad apple can spoil the whole barrel, but it can't spoil a hundred or a thousand barrels. Some people do too much evil and will sooner or later suffer the consequences."
After hearing what Song Yun said, the people around had mixed feelings. Some blamed themselves for knowing the truth but not daring to say it out loud, some admired the noble character of the brother and sister, and some were indifferent, as if it had nothing to do with them.
The old woman was so angry when she saw her making indirect accusations and cursing in such a dirty way that she wanted to rush up and slap her, but her knees hurt so much that it hurt whenever she moved. She dared not move at all and could only vent her anger with her mouth.
The two police officers were extremely annoyed.
At this time, a boy walked up to the two police officers and said, "Uncle Police, I was right next to them and I saw it."
The police officer's eyes lit up, "Little boy, what did you see?"
The boy pointed at Ziyi and said, "I saw this brother and another brother feeding the fish. This younger brother walked not far from them and jumped into the water. Then this brother rescued this younger brother."
Before the old woman could finish her curse, the police officer hurriedly asked, "Are you sure you saw the little boy jump into the water on his own?"
The boy nodded. "Yes, I saw him jump yesterday and the day before yesterday."
The old woman yelled, "Whose child is talking nonsense here? Where are the adults?"
A middle-aged man stepped forward and said, "I saw it too. What the child said is correct. It was your grandnephew who jumped himself. I saw it clearly."
The middle-aged man finished speaking and looked at the silent crowd around him. "Comrades, if we don't stand up and tell the truth today, perhaps tomorrow it will be your turn, my turn, and our children's turn to be blackmailed by her in this despicable way. Who will speak up for us then? If this continues for a long time, and a child really falls into the water, who will dare to rescue him? What will become of our social atmosphere? How cold will people become? When we old people fall on the side of the road, who will dare to lend a hand to us?"
As soon as the middle-aged man finished speaking, two people immediately stood up and said, "I saw it too. It was the kid who jumped on his own."
"I saw it too. The old lady had been hiding behind a tree. When someone rescued her, she ran over to extort money from people. She's already extorted quite a few people in the past few days."
"This old woman is so vicious. I saw with my own eyes that she forced the kid to jump into the water. If he refused, she would beat him up. She also threatened to beat his sister to death if he didn't jump."
The public security comrade's face became increasingly gloomy, so there was no need to ask any more questions. He directly took the man to the Public Security Bureau.
Several enthusiastic people even took the initiative to testify together.
As parties involved, Song Yun, Song Ziyi and others naturally went to the Public Security Bureau.
The old woman was also making a scene in the Public Security Bureau, throwing a tantrum and shouting that she would call her son to overturn the bureau.
