"Xiao Hong, why are you so late? Your sister is dead, her body is getting cold, oh dear, what are we going to do!" the villagers shouted at the girl named Xiao Hong.
Qiao Gaoyang: "..."
He finally understood what it meant to enjoy watching a good show and not mind making things worse!
"Sister!" Xiao Hong saw the woman on the ground and went crazy, trying to break through the soldiers' obstruction to rush to the woman's side. With tears in her eyes, she cried out, "Sister! Sister!"
The girl lying on the ground, soaking wet, being resuscitated by Su Yueya, is named Leng Yingying, but the villagers usually call her Big Shadow.
The girl who was emotionally agitated and wanted to break through the barriers was named Leng Yinghong; everyone usually called her Xiao Hong.
The two sisters are not blood sisters.
Leng Yingying's father, Leng Qisheng, and Leng Yinghong's mother, Xu Fangfang, were in a blended family. Leng Yinghong was the name her mother adopted after remarrying. After Leng Qisheng and Xu Fangfang remarried, they had another son named Leng Yaozu.
"Sister! Get away from me! You're the ones who killed my sister! Get out of my way! What are you doing to my sister!" Leng Yinghong screamed, her voice filled with madness.
The statement, "You killed my sister," was absolutely shocking.
The one who tried to save lives instantly became the one who committed murder.
"What's going on? Who's telling the truth? Are these people saving the Great Shadow, or are they harming it?"
"Yeah, I don't understand."
The villagers were confused, but Leng Yinghong was the Leng Yinghong they knew, while this group of people were all strangers. In comparison, the familiar Leng Yinghong was obviously more credible.
"You bunch of murderers, how dare you pretend to save people in broad daylight! You're too audacious!" the villagers shouted, and began to crowd around again.
The soldiers had no choice but to join hands and forcibly create a cordon to give Su Yueya, who was still focused on the rescue, some space.
They were all stunned the moment they became murderers.
Why did Leng Yinghong say that?
Under these circumstances, Qiao Gaoyang calmed down and examined Leng Yinghong, whose eyes were red and who was passionately accusing the villagers of their heinous acts.
"Fellow villagers, you must help me! You must help my sister! It was these people who kicked my sister into the river! They weren't trying to save her, they were trying to harm her! They're crying wolf!" Leng Yinghong shouted, stirring up the crowd's emotions.
"Everyone, please help me! We absolutely can't let these people get away like this!" Leng Yinghong looked into the distance, thinking, "Why haven't my parents heard any noise yet? Come quickly!"
Such a good opportunity cannot be missed. These people must bleed before they can leave. That way, Leng Yingying's death will have been worthwhile and will have made a contribution to their family!
"Don't worry, Xiao Hong, we've all surrounded them, they can't escape!" The righteous villagers came online.
Originally, the soldiers held hands to create a space for Su Yueya, but now the roles have been reversed, and the crowded villagers are now "surrounding" the soldiers in the inner circle.
"You bunch of beasts, what did Big Shadow do to you? Why is he being kicked into the water?"
"That's right, this is a matter of life and death, you're not leaving until we get to the bottom of this!"
"Fellow villagers, let's just stand here and call Lao Leng over. His daughter has been murdered, why isn't he coming over?"
"Looking so respectable, yet daring to take a life. Even if Big Shadow offended you, you shouldn't have kicked him into the river. This is murder, it's attempted murder!"
Qiao Gaoyang: "..." Oh my god!
He knows quite a lot, even about murder... He felt a sense of helplessness, like a scholar encountering a soldier, unable to reason with him.
This large group of villagers was simply the biggest obstacle on their mission.
"Team leader, we've really hit a brick wall this time," Qiao Gaoyang said helplessly. This is even scarier than enemy agents!
If they encounter enemy agents, they can take action and beat people.
But if they encounter villagers, what can a group of soldiers do to them?
Damn, this is so restrictive!
Team leader: "..."
He was also quite distraught, anxious to return and hand over the list of enemy agents, while also worrying about Su Yueya's rescue—after all, it was a human life, and since they had seen it, they couldn't just ignore it.
"Everyone, calm down. We didn't kick the big shadow you're talking about into the river. We were just driving by when we saw her calling for help in the water, so we jumped in and pulled her out!" The team leader tried to explain, then looked at Leng Yinghong, "Girl, why are you framing us?"
"What frame-up? I saw you kick my sister down with my own eyes, and I didn't even have time to stop you!" Leng Yinghong confronted the team leader.
Qiao Gaoyang: It's settled, the murderer has confessed without being asked!
Even if Leng Yinghong isn't the murderer, she's at least an accomplice.
Otherwise, how could she have seen something that never happened and then confidently encouraged the villagers to stand up for her?
"You say you saw it with your own eyes, but what evidence do you have?" Qiao Gaoyang retorted, looking directly at Leng Yinghong.
Leng Yinghong paused for a moment, not expecting this person to ask her for evidence.
What evidence did she get? She's just making it all up!
"I saw it with my own eyes, isn't that evidence?" Leng Yinghong said stubbornly, continuing her shameless act, "In short, don't try to renege on your promise, you have to take responsibility for my sister's death!"
“You say you saw us kick your sister into the water with your own eyes, then I can also say that I saw you kick your sister into the water with my own eyes, and then we saved her. Everyone on our side can be a witness, but do you have one?” Qiao Gaoyang said, using Leng Yinghong’s logic to defeat her.
"You—" Leng Yinghong was furious. She hadn't expected this person to be so difficult to deal with, but she believed that the villagers would trust her more. "You're all in cahoots, of course you'll speak for your own people. Your words are completely unreliable!"
“Leng Yingying is my sister. Even if we’re not blood sisters, we’re still family. Why would I kick her into the water? That doesn’t make any sense. You’re just making baseless accusations!” Leng Yinghong said.
"You're really something..." Qiao Gaoyang laughed. He thought Leng Yinghong had some tricks up her sleeve, but it turned out to be just like this.
"Why is it that you have no witnesses, yet your words are considered true, while the words of so many of us are disregarded? So what if we're sisters? Isn't it normal for sisters to have disagreements? Don't let her use you as a pawn!" Qiao Gaoyang reminded the villagers watching.
“Yeah, what this brother said seems to make sense... Xiao Hong and he have different opinions, so why should we believe Xiao Hong’s words and not this brother’s?”
"Are you out of your mind? We've watched Xiao Hong grow up. Who is he? Who can guarantee that what he says is the truth?"
