Chapter 7: Uncle Police, He is a Murderer
"What's wrong with these delivery guys? They're sleeping in the park."
"It looks like he drank too much last night. The delivery drivers nowadays are too rude. I saw on the news yesterday that there was a perverted murderer in our city who was also a delivery driver."
"That's right. Look, it's all in the newspaper. It's in Jiaming Community. The boy is pretty good-looking. Wouldn't it be better for him to just find a partner? It's really a sin for him to ruin other girls!"
"Young man... wake up, go sleep somewhere else, we are going to play chess..."
Ma Mingzhe was the first to wake up. He rubbed his eyes, looked at the old men sleepily, and said happily: "Uncles, do you want to play chess? I'll play a few games with you."
"Young man, you should check on your friend... There's blood all over his crotch. If he wasn't a man, I would have thought he was having his period!"
"Oh my god!" Ma Mingzhe turned his head and looked at Dong Yong lying on the ground. Dong Yong had just had a hemorrhoidectomy yesterday and now his pants were covered in blood.
"Su He, Gangzi, wake up quickly, Dong Yong is dying!"
Su He woke up slowly, feeling like her head was about to explode. She squinted her eyes and looked at the people around her, saying, "What are you standing there for? Why don't you send her to the hospital?"
"Huh? Young man ...you...Fuck, a murderer!" An old man took a newspaper, glanced at the head portrait on the newspaper, then looked at Su He, and exclaimed: "Brothers, he is the murderous delivery man!"
"Uncle, you can't talk nonsense. My buddy didn't kill anyone. The police have already issued a notice. If you don't believe me, check it online." Pan Zhigang also woke up, and he and Ma Mingzhe helped Dong Yong into the car.
Su He was sitting in the car, just about to leave.
"They're trying to escape!"
The old man exclaimed again and shouted to the old men who were playing chess nearby: "Brothers, come quickly, we have caught a murderer, and these guys are all accomplices, come quickly, they are about to run away."
"Uncle, I'm really not a murderer... The police have released me." Su He wanted to drive the car, but an old man quickly pulled out the key.
"He escaped from the Public Security Bureau. He is obviously not a good person!"
"You're not a murderer, so what are you afraid of? You still want to run away!"
There were not many people in the park at that time, only a group of old men and women practicing Tai Chi and playing chess, and they soon gathered over.
Su He was getting anxious, when suddenly three choices appeared before him.
[Option 1: Defeat these old men alone. Completion reward: 1 million cash.]
[Option 2: Prove your innocence by presenting evidence. Completion reward: RMB 500 in Alipay balance.]
[Option 3: Let these old men take you to the police station. Completion reward: Smart navigation map]
Several old men had already grabbed Su He's hands tightly, and were discussing whether to call the police or send him to the police station.
Su He looked at several options and quickly scanned them. He found that the number of old men and women was really astonishing. Some of them were wearing Tai Chi training clothes and looked not easy to deal with . He decisively gave up the first option. Although the reward was very tempting, it was quite troublesome to compensate them.
Dong Yong was still unconscious. Su He took out his cell phone and said, "I'm really not a murderer. Let me show you the notice issued by the police... Hey... don't grab my phone..."
"Hmph, you're still a little naive, kid!" An old lady snatched Su He's phone.
Although the reward for the second option was a little less, it was at least enough for him to pay back his Huabei. His phone was robbed, and he could only helplessly say, "Uncle, aunt, please go online and check the news to see if the police have cleared my name."
“We won’t be online.”
"Yes, there are too many rumors on the Internet. We only believe in TV news and newspapers."
"Don't waste time talking to him, send him to the police station right away."
Su He was pulled down from the car by several uncles. He looked hopeless and yelled at Ma Mingzhe, "Take Dong Yong to the hospital first!"
"Don't let them go!" An old man turned around.
"Get out of here, everyone!"
Ma Mingzhe carried Dong Yong on his back and roared like a mad bull.
The old men and women were frightened by Ma Mingzhe's aura and moved away one after another.
Ma Mingzhe ran towards the park entrance. Pan Zhigang turned his head to look at Su He, then got on his electric scooter and chased after him.
Watching Dong Yong being taken away, Su He breathed a sigh of relief, lying on the ground without struggling, crossing his legs, and said unhappily: "What are you standing there for? Why don't you take me to the police station!"
“Too arrogant!”
"Let's go, carry him to the police station even if we have to!"
Several old men surrounded Su He, each carrying a piece of cloth, and walked towards the Shijin Police Station in a mighty manner.
"Uncle, don't press my waist... it hurts..."
A little girl riding a bicycle came over, being pulled by her grandmother. The little girl pointed at Su He and said, "Grandma, I want to be lifted up too."
…
Shijin Police Station.
As soon as Jiang Wei changed into his uniform and walked out, a large group of old men and women surrounded him, talking in his ears about things like "murderer" and "delivery man".
Looking down at the ground, I saw a delivery man with a bandage on his head, sleeping with his eyes closed.
"Stop! Everyone, stop talking and come one by one!" Jiang Wei said loudly.
A respected old man was pushed out from the crowd. He pointed at Su He lying on the ground and said, "Uncle police, he's a murderer... I saw the news yesterday. A woman was killed in Jiaming Community. He was the one who did it!"
Jiang Wei is 26 years old this year. He felt a little amused and helpless when the old man called him uncle. However, as a policeman, the title of police uncle represents the people's trust in him.
He walked up to Su He, raised his head and said to the uncles and aunts: "You misunderstood him. The murderer has been caught. Yesterday's news report was wrong. He is not a murderer, he is a good man!"
The murder case that occurred yesterday also attracted widespread attention within the police force. Three people died and the murderer was on the run. The police captured the murderer within fifteen hours. This is a case worthy of being included in criminal police textbooks.
Jiang Wei received a report on the case as soon as he turned on his mobile phone in the morning. Of course, he did not blame these old men and women. After all, they still had a strong sense of justice.
Jiang Wei turned on his mobile phone and patiently read to the elderly men and women.
After hearing the police's explanation, the old men and women all showed embarrassed expressions.
"I said he wasn't that kind of person."
"Young man...I'm sorry."
Su He got up from the ground and looked at the group of old men and women who were all lowering their heads like children who had made a mistake. He said with a smile, "Who took my phone?"
An old lady handed it over hurriedly.
Su He put his phone in his pocket, looked at the old man and said, "Let me tell you, maybe you felt that I was at a disadvantage just now, but in fact, I tell you, I have practiced before, and three or five people cannot get close to me. I was afraid that if I used force, I would hurt you. Now you know you are wrong, right?"
When the old man and woman looked up, Su He glared at them and they buried their heads again.
"Successfully complete option three: Get reward: Smart navigation map."
The system's prompt rang in his mind, and Su He did not continue to teach this group of old men and women a lesson.
"Okay, since it's just a misunderstanding, let's all go!"
Jiang Wei persuaded the old man and the old woman to leave, walked up to Su He, and said with a smile: "Your name is Su He, right? Are you okay? Do you want me to take you to the hospital?"
Su He nodded and replied: "Then send me to see it."
