The older woman, always eager for excitement, readily called out to her friends who were also watching to go find the police.
Song Ziqing and Lin Chengyu were quite lucky; there was a police station nearby, and within five minutes, five or six policemen arrived, looking at the Revolutionary Committee members with expressions of disapproval.
You see, ever since the Revolutionary Committee was established, the police officers at their local police station and the members of the Revolutionary Committee have been prone to impulsive behavior. Many of their benefits have also been taken away by the Revolutionary Committee. Thinking about all this, the police officers at their local police station couldn't wait for Song Ziqing and his companion to make things even bigger.
They just wanted to see these Revolutionary Committee members make a fool of themselves.
Song Ziqing, being a time traveler, was always very puzzled, because as far as she knew, the revolutionary committee was not established so early in the history books of her time.
Whether it was because of her time travel or Lin Chengyu's rebirth, the whole world changed. Song Ziqing guessed that this was a parallel world, where many people and things were different.
Many timelines have also been moved forward.
Song's parents also became among the first to be persecuted.
At this moment, Song Ziqing was acutely aware that the world he was in was no longer the country he had lived in before, but a parallel country.
With her and Lin Chengyu as two variables, there might be even more variables. Therefore, she and Lin Chengyu cannot stand out too much and need to properly disguise themselves for safety.
At this moment, upon seeing the police arrive, Song Ziqing stopped her musings and, in front of everyone, opened both her and Lin Chengyu's backpacks, letting everyone take a good look at the books inside to see what was inside!
Lin Chengyu watched Song Ziqing's performance with a calm expression. He had long known that this girl possessed a treasure like a magic bag.
The sensitive books the two of them bought before must have been directly put into her storage bag.
At this moment, several colleagues from the police station opened the two men's backpacks in front of the crowd and took out the books one by one. Only then did everyone realize that most of the books in the bags were comic books, and a few were agricultural books, which had nothing to do with the so-called capitalist roaders' books.
The enthusiastic middle-aged woman looked at Bai Mei with disdain, "You comrade are really talking nonsense! You can call this comic book a book of capitalist roaders? I think we should all go to your Revolutionary Committee! Which family here doesn't have this comic book?"
After examining all the books, the officers from the police station calmly looked at Bai Mei and asked, "Comrade Bai, where did you hear that they had books about capitalist roaders in their backpacks?! We looked for a long time in front of everyone and couldn't find them. What do you think we should do about this?"
Bai Mei looked at Jiang Er, one of her lackeys, with a puzzled expression and asked, "Jiang Er, didn't you say you saw that woman buy several foreign books?"
Jiang Er was also confused. "I saw it, but the book was written entirely in tadpole script. I couldn't understand it at all. How could it not be a book by capitalist roaders?!"
Bai Mei glared at Jiang Er, annoyed. "You clueless idiot, can't you read?! These books don't contain any capitalist roaders! They're all comic books and books about farming. They have nothing to do with capitalist roaders!"
Song Ziqing looked at Bai Mei with a serious expression and asked, "Comrade Bai, why don't you tell us how to handle this matter? Not only are you repaying kindness with enmity, but you're also kicking someone when they're down. How did someone like you get into the Revolutionary Committee?! You didn't do it through connections, did you?!"
Lin Chengyu quickly took the opportunity to tell everyone that Bai Mei had been threatened with a knife yesterday, and it was Song Ziqing who saved her. However, instead of thanking her, Bai Mei bullied her, saying that she had talked nonsense yesterday and had not punished her ex-man.
By this time, more people had gathered to watch the spectacle. Upon hearing Lin Chengyu's words, everyone realized that Bai Mei was truly repaying kindness with enmity.
Her ex-boyfriend not only lost his job but also went to work in the countryside because of her.
He went to the countryside, and soon after, Bai Mei changed men and jobs!
He went from being an ordinary worker to a member of the Revolutionary Committee!
Instead of being grateful for Song Ziqing's efforts to save her, she even tried to take her to the Revolutionary Committee.
These days, girls from good families who join the Revolutionary Committee never have a good ending.
The discussion was lively, and the way people looked at Bai Mei changed completely. Everyone was thinking to themselves that Bai Mei really was a femme fatale.
Seeing that Bai Mei was stalling for time, Lin Chengyu pressed her for an answer: "Comrade Bai, what are you doing? Are you waiting for your superiors to arrive? Are you officials trying to force us to confess under torture?!"
The enthusiastic older woman quickly chimed in, "That's right, that's right, Comrade Bai, you Revolutionary Committee members can't just arrest people arbitrarily. Hurry up and release the two young men, otherwise, none of us will agree to your leaving."
The police officers from the local police station also chimed in, saying, "Comrade Bai Mei, since there are no books about capitalist roaders, you can't just arrest people arbitrarily. You have to have evidence for everything you do. Otherwise, I'll have to ask our leaders to go and talk to the leaders of your Revolutionary Committee. Is your Revolutionary Committee really going down the dictatorial path? Do you think we, the public security officers and the people, no longer exist?"
When Bai Mei realized that no one supported her, she had no choice but to slink away with her people.
Before leaving, she even threatened Song Ziqing, saying, "I'll come back for you!"
Song Ziqing felt that what she said was similar to what Grey Wolf always said when he was bullied by Pleasant Goat: "I will come back!"
Thinking of this, Song Ziqing couldn't help but laugh. Her smile was like a blooming rose. The aunties who were watching the commotion understood why Bai Mei wanted to cause trouble for Song Ziqing after seeing her smiling face.
Bai Mei was probably worried that she had stolen someone else's man, and was afraid that Song Ziqing would come and steal her man!
After all, everyone in Guangzhou knows that Bai Mei's man, Xiong Tian, is a man who judges people by their looks.
Everyone guessed that Bai Mei was jealous that Song Ziqing was prettier than her, which was why she was causing trouble for her.
In fact, Bai Mei wasn't jealous of Song Ziqing at all. She knew that even if her man saw Song Ziqing, he wouldn't like her. Xiong Tian liked pure girls like Bai Mei.
She was furious that Song Ziqing had let the man who wanted her dead go. She had planned to make him commit a crime and be imprisoned, but Song Ziqing ruined her plans.
That's right, Bai Mei deliberately provoked that man. She was a reborn person. In her previous life, she never expected that man would later take revenge on her, causing her family to be destroyed. She was reborn, so she wanted to lure him into committing a crime to end it all and eliminate future troubles.
