Chapter 72 We Believe
A genius is a genius; they can recognize all the words in the dictionary by themselves. But as I said before, if you want to write fluently, you still need to practice more. There are no shortcuts.
Just like Xiao Taohua is now studying medicine, although she is good in many aspects, she is still not as good as Tieguai Li.
Why? It's a matter of experience, which requires years of accumulation.
However, Little Peach Blossom is still young, only five years old, and she has a very long life ahead of her.
Little Peach Blossom drew on the ground with great effort, but after using up all the chalk stubs, she stared at the stone slab with some disappointment: "Brother, there's no more chalk."
"It's alright, I'll find someone to get you a box that hasn't been used yet next time!" Li Zhen waved his hand dismissively. It was no big deal; he had plenty of money!
Wow, brother is amazing!
"You'll find out more about my brother's abilities later."
"Yes!" Little Peach Blossom nodded emphatically.
Li Zhen looked at the human anatomy diagram drawn by Xiao Taohua, and sure enough, it was accurate to the extreme, even the acupoints were correct.
You have to understand that it took him several years to memorize this thing, while how long did it take Xiao Tao Hua to memorize it? So, a genius is a genius.
At first, he was a little jealous, but later he gave up. He figured he couldn't compare to him, and the more he compared, the more heartbroken he became. So he simply admitted his mediocrity. Fortunately, he was one of the top students in school. It didn't matter. He was mediocre, but there were people who were even more mediocre than him. At least that was some consolation.
"Wang Chengshan has been arrested, so this matter is considered resolved. When are you going to fulfill your promise to me?"
"I don't know what you're talking about."
"Damn it, say that again if you dare!"
"What are you doing? Trying to hit me? I'm warning you, if you dare to hit me, I'll report you to the police!"
"You dare to sue? Xiao Juying, don't be so stubborn! Before I turn against you, pay up the money!"
"I have no money!"
"No? Then what did you mean in the first place? You told me to provoke Li Xiu and ruin his life. Now look what's happened, he's gone, and you're going to pretend you did nothing? Do you think that's possible?!"
"What did you say? I don't know anything!"
"Don't know? Fine, I'll give you a good talking to today. You were the one who brought Li Xiu there, right? You were the one who watched me and Li Xiu do that. If Li Xiu hadn't been so headstrong, I wouldn't have messed up. You were just watching without even thinking of helping. What kind of good person do you think you are? If Wang Chengshan hadn't been so filial and liked you, and if I hadn't promised to take care of his family, do you think he would have confessed? He's a fool too. A woman like you, who looks so gentle and kind, is the most despicable!"
"Shut up!"
"What? You think it's unpleasant to hear? But you did it yourself, so you have to listen whether it's unpleasant or not! Whether you pay me or not, I don't care about my reputation. Now that Wang Chengshan has confessed, no one will think it's my fault even if you say it all. Xiao Juying, if you really dare to say it, you won't get away with it!"
"Oh, right, there's one more thing you shouldn't forget. You're an outsider. Do you think you'd marry me if I treated you however I wanted? If you did, so what if I beat you to death? Heh, what do you think?"
"Wang Dali, you're despicable!"
"Whether it's despicable or not doesn't matter, I just want money. As for you, I don't even look at you. I really have no interest in keeping a viper like you around."
You deserve to die!
"Go ahead and hit me, keep hitting me! This isn't over until you pay me!"
“Woo…”
"Cry? You still have the nerve to cry? I'll cry too, okay?"
Separated by only a wall, Li Zhen's expression grew increasingly grim, and finally he picked up Xiao Taohua and left.
Little Peach Blossom: ?
She was a little confused. She had been staring at the stone slab and didn't understand why her brother suddenly hugged her. But it didn't matter; her brother must have a reason. So she obediently let Li Zhen hug her.
Li Zhen was very familiar with this area and remembered clearly that there was a police station not far away. His goal was very clear: to report a crime.
He had never met Wang Chengshan, Li Xiu, or Xiao Juying, but he had heard of their names, especially recently, because of the murder case. The conversation behind the wall just now clearly indicated that there were more secrets behind the murder case!
After Li Zhen reported the case, he took the police directly to the alley they had just been in. They could see the other alley after turning a corner. They walked there quietly, and the people there hadn't left yet.
The police didn't act immediately; instead, they eavesdropped.
"Are you done crying yet?! I don't have time to waste on you. Pay up, or we all end up together—which do you choose?!"
"I...I really don't have that much money."
"I don't care where you get it from, I just want the money!"
"I didn't kill the person."
"You didn't kill him? Didn't you call for it? And don't forget, you were an accomplice, and you even knew about it but didn't report it. Do you think I don't know? You envy Li Xiu, otherwise you wouldn't have done something like this. You look gentle and kind, but you're like this behind the scenes. Do you think Li Xiu knew? She's stupid too, and she even considered you a good friend. She deserved to die! She died stupidly!"
"But you killed him."
"Yeah, so what if I killed him? Who do you think would believe me if you told them?" The other party was fearless.
"We believe you!" The police officers, who had been waiting, stopped the two men.
Wang Dashan's pupils constricted. What... what's going on? Where did these police come from?! Then, in the next moment, he felt his future was bleak. Had he just said something incredibly important...?
"Wang Dashan, right? You're under arrest, as is Comrade Xiao Juying." The police enforced the law impartially and without mercy!
Wang Dashan struggled: "No, you've arrested the wrong person. I didn't do anything. My family has been poor farmers for eight generations. I'm just an honest and law-abiding citizen."
"Is that so? But we heard you confess to the crime with our own ears. Take him away!"
Wang Dashan's legs went weak, and he cried out in terror, "No, I didn't admit it, I didn't do anything."
Unfortunately, nobody listened to him.
Xiao Juying was also terrified by the sudden appearance of the police, but she was different. She had been suffering greatly these days, and now seeing the police gave her a sense of relief.
Yes, she was an accomplice, and it was indeed because of her that Li Xiucai died.
Xiao Juying obediently followed the police without any resistance.
The remaining police officer looked at Li Zhen and said, "Thank you for providing the clue, young comrade."
"No, it's something a good comrade should do."
"Good, there's someone to carry on the torch."
"If there's nothing else, my sister and I will be leaving now."
“Something’s come up. Where are you from, young man? I need to talk to your parents. You did a good deed and should be publicly praised.”
"No, no, my sister is hungry. Goodbye, uncle." With that, he turned and ran, leaving the police officer deeply moved: "What a good comrade! What a good comrade!"
