Chapter 276: Chapter 276: The Police Killed Someone

Zhou Yingying is a police officer, why is this crowd surrounding her?

As soon as the car stopped, Wang Hao dashed out, parted the crowd, and reached Zhou Yingying’s side.

He saw a middle-aged man lying at the feet of Zhou Yingying. This man’s clothes were tattered, and there was a child sitting beside him, crying non-stop.

It seemed like Zhou Yingying was catching the middle-aged man, but for some reason, the man had fallen to the ground. So, the surrounding people all thought that Zhou Yingying had done something to the middle-aged man.

"How can a police officer hit someone for no reason?"

"Exactly, and in front of the man’s child too. Look how pitiful this child is. What will they think of you police when they grow up!"

"It’s absolutely outrageous!"

The onlookers were also drawn by the child’s crying. Everyone thought Zhou Yingying had beaten the middle-aged man to death and were all vigorously accusing her.

"I didn’t, stop talking nonsense!"

Zhou Yingying, who had lost her usual composure, appeared somewhat panicked. She tried to explain, but the people around her simply wouldn’t give her the chance.

At this moment, a few emotionally charged youths slowly approached Zhou Yingying.

"Just because you’re a police officer, you think you’re something special? That you can hit people at will just because of that uniform? We must absolutely not let this woman take the man away today. We have to seek justice for this child."

Suddenly, a middle-aged man burst out indignantly.

Wang Hao knew this man; he was a definite nouveau riche, commonly called Chen Dafa by everyone.

He used to be a good-for-nothing thug, always idle, living from hand to mouth.

It seems that about half a year ago, by some stroke of blind luck, he suddenly came back laden with money.

Everyone found it very strange. The police did too, and they had investigated him. However, after much probing, they couldn’t find any leads.

Those seemingly unaccountable riches always had a corresponding reasonable source.

But Zhou Yingying was stubborn by nature and kept on his tail without letting go. This had infuriated Chen Dafa, who was always looking for an opportunity to retaliate against Zhou Yingying.

Wang Hao initially wondered if Chen Dafa had hired someone to stage this scene as revenge against Zhou Yingying, but he quickly dismissed this idea in his heart.

Because no one liked Chen Dafa, and if this incident had anything to do with him, they wouldn’t be so hostile towards Zhou Yingying.

"What happened?"

As Wang Hao entered the crowd, he couldn’t help but ask.

"Wang Hao!"

Upon seeing Wang Hao, Zhou Yingying looked at him with a face full of grievance, but she couldn’t be too obvious in front of others.

Wang Hao?

Upon hearing the name, everyone paused for a moment. Although they had not seen Wang Hao in person, they had long heard of his name. Wang Hao was now a notable figure in this place.

"What’s going on?" Wang Hao asked.

"Recently, we’ve discovered that someone has been using special tools to transport drugs. Today, I spotted this man acting very suspiciously, so I followed him to question him.

"Who would have known that he’d try to run upon seeing me? Right when I caught him here, I had just cuffed him when he suddenly passed out. I didn’t know it would happen like this," Zhou Yingying said, looking aggrieved. freeweɓnovel.cøm

Could it really be such a coincidence?

Wang Hao felt curious in his heart and squatted down to take a closer look at the middle-aged man.

But who would have thought that just as he bent down, he felt a strange pressure, which was curious.

This feeling came suddenly, but disappeared just as quickly, so Wang Hao didn’t pay it much attention.

However, what Wang Hao found odd was that although the middle-aged man was wearing ragged clothes, the child next to him was dressed in bright, shiny attire.

"Is this child his?"

Wang Hao asked.

"I heard this child shouting for her daddy, but the difference between the two of them is also..."

Zhou Yingying also felt completely puzzled, her heart filled with doubt.

"Child, is this really your daddy?"

Wang Hao lowered his head and asked the little girl.

The little girl’s face was streaked with tears, and seeing her in such a heartbroken state, Wang Hao concluded that the middle-aged man must be the little girl’s father; but why did their appearances differ so much?

"Look, look, this man’s face has turned purple, he must be dead!"

Before the little girl could speak, someone in the crowd shouted out loud.

"Heavens, how did it end up like this?"

Even though Zhou Yingying had received professional training at the police station, she couldn’t help but scream in shock upon seeing the man’s condition.

The people around also stepped back in fear.

Wang Hao bent down for a closer look and couldn’t help but frown deeply.

The middle-aged man lying on the ground had a purplish complexion, a terrifying sight. He squatted down to check the man’s breath and, as expected, there was no longer any sign of breathing.

"Is he really dead?"

Wang Hao was secretly shocked because he believed Zhou Yingying would certainly not lie to him, but now this person indeed had no breath. How could he explain this?

"Everyone, come and see, a man is dead. Come quickly, make a judgment, the police have killed a man in broad daylight!"

Upon seeing that the middle-aged man was dead, Chen Dafa immediately jumped out, pointing at Zhou Yingying and shouting loudly.

When the little girl heard someone say her father was dead, she cried even more miserably.

Zhou Yingying panicked for a moment, unsure of what to do next.

"Zhou Yingying, let’s see how you’ll get out of this one, always causing me trouble!"

Chen Dafa, seeing Zhou Yingying apparently kill a man, was overjoyed and shouted loudly to the people around him.

"Everyone, hurry up and grab Zhou Yingying, don’t let her get away. She’s a cop, and I hear her family has a lot of influence. If her family covers up the crime, none of you will be able to do anything about her!"

Upon hearing Chen Dafa say this, everyone became angry and surrounded Zhou Yingying.

"Chen Dafa, stop spouting nonsense. I didn’t lay a finger on him, he fainted on his own," Zhou Yingying said loudly in her defense.

"Humph, just because you say you didn’t hit him, you didn’t? Where’s the evidence then? Can anyone here vouch for you? If you have none, I might as well say I saw you hit the man with my own eyes. Would you believe that?" Chen Dafa pressed aggressively.

"Chen Dafa, you’re slandering me, why are you targeting me?" Zhou Yingying was clearly angry now.

"So what if I’m targeting you? You’re the one who killed him, and now you think you have the right to argue?" Chen Dafa continued to taunt.

"Everyone, come and see, this woman is a cop who thinks she’s above the law because of her connections. She killed a man and is still arguing here!"

After finishing his accusation, Chen Dafa flipped the middle-aged man over for everyone to see, convincing the onlookers that Zhou Yingying had killed him.

The middle-aged man’s complexion was extraordinarily ghastly, and the people around didn’t dare to look, so they gradually came to believe Chen Dafa’s words, thinking that Zhou Yingying had killed the man and surrounded her to prevent her from leaving.

Now the only witness who could prove Zhou Yingying’s innocence was dead, leaving no one to contradict the accusation, and Wang Hao didn’t know how he could help Zhou Yingying.

But Wang Hao still found it strange. The middle-aged man had been fine just moments before, so why had his face suddenly turned purple?

Logically, a purplish face usually indicates suffocation, which would be evident before death, as a dead person’s complexion generally does not change afterward.

However, this middle-aged man’s face had turned color after he died, which was truly odd.
