Chapter 434 Identification
Qiao Yunshan said, "My assistant saw it too."
The assistant beside him nodded repeatedly.
“You two are in this together, of course she’ll listen to you!” Jiang Ting said.
At this moment, a police officer came over and said, "Comrade, someone has accused you of having ties with the homeless people who were causing trouble. You are the suspect. Come with us to the police station."
Jiang Ting tried to calm herself down. The homeless man hadn't seen her face and wouldn't recognize her.
Thinking of this, Jiang Ting calmed down and said, "I can go to the police station with you. I hope you can clear my name."
The police officer then looked at Jiang Ning, Shen Mo, Qiao De, Qiao Yunshan, and others.
In a serious tone, he said, "Please go to the police station to make a statement."
At this moment, a person from the Foreign Affairs Department who was next to Qiao De came out, took out an ID card from his body, and handed it to the police officer from the police station.
He said, “Comrade, I am from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Mr. Qiao De is a distinguished foreign guest and cannot go to the police station.”
Jode is the president of Country D. With his status, how could he possibly go to the police station?
Moreover, the bodyguards under Jode assaulted someone in order to protect Dr. Jiang, who was treating him. If someone of such status is involved and things escalate, or if the president of Country D takes it to heart, what was originally a small matter could turn into an international dispute.
As for his identity as the president of Country D, he couldn't reveal it in public.
Upon hearing this, the police officer looked troubled. He looked at the homeless man who had been beaten unconscious; after all, this foreigner had assaulted a Chinese citizen.
He didn't know the other party's identity, but legally, the necessary procedures still had to be followed.
The person from the Foreign Affairs Department didn't want to make things difficult for the police officers, so he said, "How about this, I'll go to the Public Security Bureau with you and meet with your director. I'll explain this matter to your director."
When they heard that the other party wanted to see the bureau chief, they weren't tactless.
This foreigner has bodyguards with him, so his identity must be quite extraordinary.
Such matters are indeed beyond the capabilities of lowly soldiers like them.
He immediately nodded in agreement.
Meanwhile, the translator was also simultaneously translating their conversation for Jode.
Qiao De stepped forward and said, "I'm the one who had the person beaten up. Since Dr. Jiang is going to the police station, I'm going too."
The comrade from the Foreign Affairs Department: "..."
Why are you causing trouble?
Since Jode offered to go, he must have no reservations about it.
Immediately, the group of people entered the police station in a grand procession.
Walking into the police station, Jiang Ting became even calmer.
Qiao Yunshan's accusations did catch her off guard, but the homeless man is still unconscious.
As long as she insists that she has never seen this homeless man, Qiao Yunshan will not be able to produce any other evidence.
Jiang Ning hadn't expected Qiao Yunshan's accusations.
This kind of nonsensical medical dispute is clearly orchestrated by someone, and it's only a matter of time before the person behind it is caught.
But since Qiao Yunshan pointed out Jiang Ting, Jiang Ning also remembered her kindness.
The police officer pinched the homeless man's philtrum for a while, and about a minute later, the homeless man woke up.
He is now in excruciating pain all over his body. Not only was he beaten up, but when he opened his eyes, he was still in the police station.
He only told a few lies; he shouldn't have ended up in the police station.
"Why did you cause trouble at the hospital?" the police officer asked him solemnly when he saw that he had woken up.
The homeless man had never been to a police station before, and he was so scared he almost wet himself. The two foreigners who had just hit him were standing next to him.
He didn't dare to hide anything and stammered, "Yesterday...yesterday someone gave me money to cause trouble at the hospital. She gave me five yuan first, and after I caused trouble at the hospital, she would give me another five yuan. I was just blinded by money. I didn't mean to cause trouble at the hospital. You should arrest the person who gave me the money!"
The police officer pondered for a moment, then suddenly pointed at Jiang Ting and asked the homeless man, "Did she send you to cause trouble at the hospital?"
The homeless man looked in the direction he was pointing, and shook his head, saying, "The woman covered her face when she gave me the money, so I didn't see what she looked like."
Hearing the homeless man's words, Qiao Yunshan looked at him with exasperation, "She told you to hurt people, but you didn't even look at what she looks like?"
"I only want money, I don't care what she looks like!" After saying that, he cried and pleaded, "Officer, I've told you everything I know, can you let me go now? I just caused a little trouble at the hospital, I didn't hurt anyone."
The police officer said, "Many people saw you try to attack Dr. Jiang. You didn't succeed, but it was still an attempted murder."
When they arrived at the scene, they already asked the routine questions.
Many people saw him almost push Dr. Jiang down the steps.
Upon hearing this, the homeless man's eyes widened. He shook his head and said, "I...I didn't mean to kill anyone! Don't frame me!"
“He said it wasn’t me, can I leave now?” Jiang Ting suddenly asked.
The smile never left her lips while she was speaking.
She was right; her face was covered, so the homeless man couldn't recognize her.
She wouldn't be foolish enough to let the other person know what she looks like when she's doing something bad.
However, no sooner had Jiang Ting finished speaking than the homeless man, who had just said he couldn't recognize her, suddenly pointed at Jiang Ting, his tone agitated—
It's her!
"She's the one who gave me money to cause trouble at the hospital. She wanted me to accuse Dr. Jiang of harming people!"
Jiang Ting's face immediately showed an unexpected expression. "Don't talk nonsense. You just said you hadn't seen what the person who ordered you looked like, but now you're saying it's me. Did someone ask you to identify me?"
The police officer, his face grim, said to the homeless man, "Falsely accusing someone is also a crime, and that's an even more serious offense."
“I…I don’t know what that woman looks like, but I remember her voice. Her voice is exactly the same as the woman who came to see me yesterday,” the homeless man said, pointing at Jiang Ting.
Hearing him speak his own voice, Jiang Ting's expression changed.
I had planned everything perfectly, but I never expected to overlook this one thing.
"Even if the voices are the same, it doesn't mean anything. There are so many people in the capital, and there are plenty of people with the same voice. Who knows if he's scared and that's why he's making baseless accusations?" She forced herself to calm down. Unless there was concrete evidence, the homeless man couldn't prove that she was behind it.
Qiao Yunshan, on the other hand, only made empty promises.
As long as she doesn't admit it, this matter won't involve her.
Jiang Ting looked at Qiao Yunshan and said, "You're all just talking, why don't you produce some other evidence?"
“Who says I don’t have any other evidence? There were other people in the crew who saw you give money to that homeless man besides my assistant. You wait, I’ll have my assistant go back and get them right now.”
As Qiao Yunshan spoke, she turned to her assistant, signaling her to go back and call for help.
A look of confusion flashed across the assistant's face. At the time, only the two of them saw Jiang Ting give money to the homeless man; there were no other people from the same film crew.
Although she was puzzled, she didn't ask any further questions, nodded, and prepared to leave.
Upon hearing Qiao Yunshan say that someone else had seen her, Jiang Ting panicked. "You're lying! I clearly saw only you and your assistant return to the guesthouse yesterday. There was no one else there!"
Qiao Yunshan raised an eyebrow. "Really? How do you know it's just me and my assistant, and no one else?"
Realizing she had let something slip, Jiang Ting's face changed, and she hurriedly explained, "I followed you back to the guesthouse yesterday, of course I know there was no one else there!"
"You're lying." Qiao Yunshan curled her lips into a smile.
"Yesterday you asked Director Hu for leave and left the crew before me. Do you need me to call Director Hu here now to confront you?"
Jiang Ting's face turned pale. She had panicked and blurted out something she shouldn't have, forgetting that she had asked Director Hu for leave yesterday.
At this moment, she finally realized what was happening and glared at Qiao Yunshan, "You tricked me!"
Qiao Yunshan then looked at the homeless man and said, "Do you remember what she used to cover her face?"
The homeless man thought carefully for a moment, then immediately said, "I remember! The woman was wearing a blue scarf covering her face."
“Jiang Ting, I remember you had a blue scarf. You were the only one in the entire crew with a blue scarf.”
Just as Jiang Ting was about to retort, Qiao Yunshan anticipated what she was going to say, "In the entire crew, you're the only one with a blue scarf. If you don't admit it, I can invite everyone in the crew to help you remember."
At this moment, the homeless man dropped another bombshell, saying, "Officer, there are other companions of mine under that bridge. When she gave me the money, the others also heard her voice!"
"And I even remember what she was wearing! She was wearing a very long dress, apricot-colored..."
He immediately described in detail the clothes and shoes Jiang Ting was wearing.
With each word the homeless man spoke, Jiang Ting's face paled a little.
"Jiang Ting, you have a trench coat you bought at the Overseas Chinese Store, right? If you still don't admit it, I'll have someone bring all your clothes here for him to identify."
