Chapter 244 Discovering Shen Pianran Under Hypnosis (1)
Mr. and Mrs. Shen, along with Old Master Shen and others, rushed over upon hearing the noise and witnessed the scene.
The moment Jiang Ning saw the kitchen knife slip from Shen Pianran's hand, she didn't hesitate for a second and smashed the stool she was holding into the back of Shen Pianran's neck.
Shen Pianran was knocked unconscious.
Xu Jin immediately went to Jiang Ning's side, and she was also terrified. "Has Shen Pianran gone mad? She actually dared to attack people with a knife!"
The arriving parents and others were also startled. The father looked at the kitchen knife on the ground with a sharp and sinister gaze.
Shen's mother immediately went to Jiang Ning and asked her worriedly, "Ning Ning, are you alright?"
Jiang Ning held Nanxing in her arms and glanced at Lezhi, who was sleeping soundly.
She then responded to her mother, "Mom, I'm fine."
Mother Shen circled around Jiang Ning, and only breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that she was alright.
The near-death experience still sends shivers down my spine.
"I'm going to call the police," Xu Jin said, and started to leave the room.
Normally, even if they had some disagreements, they would never escalate to this point. But this time, Shen Pianran dared to be so audacious as to rush into the house with a kitchen knife and attack people.
Such serious incidents must be handled by the Public Security Bureau.
No one refuted Xu Jin's words, not even the old man Shen who had rushed over.
Just as Xu Jin was about to walk out of the house, Shen Bingwei, who was standing at the door, suddenly grabbed her. "Xiao Jin, no matter how much this matter is stirred up, it's a private matter between our families. There's no need to take it to the police station!"
It wasn't that Shen Bingwei had a change of heart, but rather that he didn't want a daughter to go to jail.
If this gets out, everyone will have something to say about it that will hurt him deeply.
Xu Jin impatiently shook off his hand, her face showing no kindness whatsoever. "Second Uncle Shen, malicious murder is no small matter. This must be reported to the police."
"What malicious killing? Pianran just had a moment of despair. Look, no one was hurt." Shen Bingwei would never admit that his daughter committed murder.
Even if the police come, he won't admit it!
Jiang Ning handed the sleeping Nanxing to Chen's mother, walked over, and sneered, her eyes filled with coldness, "Second Uncle, your daughter tried to kill me and poisoned my child. Do you think this matter can be left alone?"
When Jiang Ning's face turned cold, Shen Bingwei felt as if he were seeing his older brother who could lift him up just the day before.
Despite being a junior, he exuded an aura of authority.
Shen Bingwei was subconsciously a little intimidated by Jiang Ning.
"What...what do you want?"
Jiang Ning said, "Shen Pianran committed attempted murder, and whatever the crime, she should be charged with."
Shen Bingwei was about to retort when suddenly a fist fell from the sky and landed on his face.
Shen Bingwei was knocked to the ground by a punch.
Shen Bingwei's teeth were loosened by his father's punch.
Shen Bingwei was in so much pain that he almost burst into tears. His father stood tall and imposing in front of Jiang Ning, like a mountain.
Shen Bingwei swallowed back the words that were about to slip out. He was certain that if he said another word, his older brother's fist would kill him.
Seeing that he couldn't reason with Jiang Ning, Shen Bingwei immediately changed his target and looked at Old Master Shen standing to the side.
“Dad, you can’t ignore this!” Shen Bingwei grabbed the old man’s hand and said, “If Pianran really gets charged with murder, her life will be ruined. If the police really come, how awful will people around here say about our family?”
His words were sincere, and it was clear from his tone that he was thinking of the Shen family.
He was certain that the old man would protect Pianran for the sake of the Shen family's reputation.
Father Shen also clenched his fists and stared at the old man, his fists cracking loudly.
If the old man really tries to protect Shen Pianran and tries to downplay the matter, he will immediately publish a notice in the newspaper to sever ties.
While they were hesitating, Jiang Ning gave Xu Jin a look.
Xu Jin immediately understood and went out to call the police station.
Jiang Ning watched the scene unfold with cold eyes, regardless of how much Shen Bingwei made a fuss or how Old Master Shen tried to downplay the situation.
That's impossible.
Old Master Shen closed his eyes and finally said, "Let the police station handle this matter."
Shen Bingwei's expression changed. He hadn't expected that the old man, who always valued face above all else, would actually lose face this time.
Half an hour later, the police officers from the local police station arrived.
He heard that the police had called to report the attempted murder, and that the incident had occurred in the retirement compound.
As everyone knows, no one who lives in a veterans' compound is an ordinary person. When the police station received the report from the veterans' compound, they were shocked and immediately dispatched officers to the scene.
When the police arrived at the Shen family's home, they began to understand the whole story.
Even though they had dealt with many disputes, hearing about such a serious family conflict was still shocking.
A police officer picked up a kitchen knife from the ground and kept it as evidence.
Another police officer then pinned down Shen Pianran, who was still unconscious.
Everyone present at the scene had to go to the police station to give a statement after what happened.
Everyone else agreed, even Old Master Shen nodded, but Shen Bingwei was not so willing.
Finally, Shen's father raised his fist, and Shen Bingwei immediately agreed.
Seeing that there were quite a few people, the police station called again to ask them to send two more cars.
Jiang Ning and Shen's mother each carried one child and went to the police station together.
The car had just stopped in front of the police station when Shen Pianran, who had been unconscious for a while, suddenly woke up.
Upon waking up, Shen Pianran found herself being carried away by two people in police uniforms, one on her left and one on her right. She was momentarily stunned, but then struggled to get to her senses.
"Why are you arresting me? I haven't broken the law!"
The two police officers were also surprised that Shen Pianran suddenly woke up, and she almost managed to break free.
Xu Jin was standing right next to them when, before the two police officers could react, Xu Jin punched Shen Pianran in the face.
Her punch stunned the struggling Shen Pianran, and the two police officers holding her were also caught off guard for a moment.
After realizing what was happening, one of the police officers immediately stopped Xu Jin, who was about to throw a second punch, and said, "Comrade, this is a police station, you can't fight."
Xu Jin stopped and chuckled, "Oh, I thought she was going to hit me when she was shaking her head and waving her hands. I just acted a little too fast. Sorry, sorry."
The police officer standing nearby: "..."
This doesn't look like a quick, impulsive action...
The police officers brought the still-nagging, newly awakened Shen Pianran to the station, while Xu Jin, who was a step behind, exchanged a glance with Jiang Ning.
Jiang Ning also saw the punch Xu Jin threw at Chen Pianran.
Jiang Ning gave Xu Jin a thumbs up.
Xu Jin arrogantly tossed her head and walked into the police station; Shen Pianran was just asking for a beating.
That punch was too lenient.
