Chapter 147 Arrest
Under the blazing sun, the shadows of the trees were dappled.
Wan Qiqi sat on a stone bench in the side courtyard, taking a nap on the table. It was a rare moment of leisure.
However, she slept with a vague unease.
In her dream, she returned to the modern world, but everything had changed. No one recognized her; they treated her like a madwoman and sent her to a mental hospital.
Even when she gave her ID number and name, a different person appeared, and that person even appeared in front of her, and her family recognized that person as their daughter.
Every system query only yields four words—No such person found!
Wan Qiqi suddenly woke up from her dream, fell backward, and landed flat on her back.
The sunlight was so bright that she couldn't open her eyes and had to shield them with her hands.
After a long while, she finally distinguished between the dream and reality.
Thankfully, the online store is still there, and the money is still there!
"Sister-in-law, something terrible has happened! My brother has been arrested!"
Wan Qiqi was sitting on the ground when she heard the call from the doorway in the distance, and she suddenly stood up.
He got arrested?
Who arrested him?
She felt something was wrong; it turned out that it was past noon and Chen Yongnian had not returned yet!
Chen Yongliang stopped in front of Wan Qiqi, panting, "Big...Big...Sister-in-law..." He couldn't utter a complete sentence for a long time.
Wan Qiqi quickly calmed down. "Let's catch our breath first."
Under Wan Qiqi's direction, Chen Yongliang took a few deep breaths and finally calmed down. He said, "I heard that my elder brother and Li Fugui got into a fight in Baizhi Town and were arrested by the elders. They even said they would ask the village heads of two villages to come over!"
Wan Qiqi frowned.
If it were just a simple fight, it wouldn't warrant calling the village head; it's only when it escalates that such a matter is taken.
"Let's go to Baizhi Town!"
Meanwhile, in the main hall of Baizhi Town government office.
Li Fugui was being escorted by militiamen, his face bruised and swollen, and his clothes were torn in several places.
The men standing behind him resembled him and were all being escorted by militiamen.
Across from him, Chen Yongnian stood straight, turning his face away from Li Fugui, with several bruises on his face.
Only Lin Dazhuang squatted on the ground, trembling. It was not hard to see that he also had marks left from the fight.
Although both were being held by militia, it was clear that the two sides were being treated differently.
Li Fugui was indignant. "Why didn't you restrain him when he hit someone?" he said, trying to break free from the guards and fight Chen Yongnian again.
He couldn't understand how five or six of them couldn't defeat Chen Yongnian alone!
“If you were as honest as him, I would have someone release you!” Wang Qi’s face was long and drawn.
When he heard that someone was causing trouble and rushed over, he saw the two men fighting. The people behind Li Fugui were grabbing Chen Yongnian and trying to pull Chen Yongnian away from Li Fugui.
Upon seeing him arrive, these people took off running, while only Chen Yongnian stood obediently in place, submitting to orders.
The mule cart next to them was broken apart, and the mules were still braying. Lin Dazhuang, who was on the ground, was almost trampled by the mules, but luckily he pulled him out in time and escaped disaster.
He didn't know Chen Yongnian, but he remembered Lin Dazhuang, the one who sold sweet soup in front of the Xie family's house a couple of days ago.
He arrested Li Fugui and his gang yesterday and taught them a lesson. I never expected that today he would not only dismantle someone else's mule cart but also beat people up. He is really lawless!
The reason Chen Yongnian was also arrested was because he had been too ruthless; Li Fugui's face was so swollen that he was almost unrecognizable!
Standing opposite Wang Qizhang was a slightly older middle-aged man with a goatee.
He looked at the two groups of people vying for supremacy below and couldn't help but sigh.
Baizhi Town has developed well under his management, and its public security is the best among the towns. However, today, the villagers from two villages did not fight in his jurisdiction, and even seemed to have done nothing wrong, which gave him a great headache.
He could say a few words about Guanshi Village, but Lianhua Village was far away and not under his jurisdiction.
In fact, both the village head and the head of the household are village officials, but under the requirements of the county magistrate, the head of the household has more authority, which means that the head of the household has a binding force on the village head.
Although the head of the household has no right to interfere with the development of the village, he still has the authority to handle matters that occur in the town.
Headman Luo is now in a real bind, and can only wait for the village heads from each village to come over so they can discuss how to handle the matter together.
Seeing Lin Dazhuang curled up and trembling, Chen Yongnian felt a pang of pity and asked, "Head of the household, could you please let Dazhuang leave? This matter has nothing to do with him."
"What do you mean it has nothing to do with him? He's the one who hit me with a basin! My back still hurts!" Li Fugui's face was swollen, but he could still speak clearly. But he didn't realize that he looked ridiculous.
Chen Yongnian's eyes grew cold, and his voice boomed: "It was you who overturned the mule cart and then rushed up to hit people, so we fought back!"
"Bullshit! Look at us! Do you think we're the ones hitting you? We're clearly the ones getting hit!"
As soon as Li Fugui finished speaking, the people behind him spoke one after another, all of them criticizing Chen Yongnian for being ruthless and urging him to take precautions.
"What's all the noise about? If you keep making noise, take him out and give him a beating!" Elder Wang was also annoyed, wondering how such a thing had come to this.
He looked at Chen Yongnian's clothes and found them increasingly familiar. He walked over and asked, "You're pretty good at fighting, kid. Have you studied kung fu?"
Chen Yongnian thought to himself, "This is bad. If people find out that he is from the martial arts school and gets arrested for fighting outside, wouldn't that make my master lose face?"
He hesitated for a long time, then shook his head.
Even as he hesitated, Wang Qizhang recognized where the outfit came from!
If he remembered correctly, it was the attire of Instructor Xue's martial arts school in Hefeng Town.
