Rebirth of a Village Girl-Chapter 964 - 233: What goes around comes around! _5

10 minutes?

It would take at least 30 minutes to reach the nearest hospital at top speed!

10 minutes is simply impossible!

"Comrade, are you kidding?" Xiaoma asked incredulously.

"No," Ni Yang replied seriously.

Seeing no trace of jest in Ni Yang’s demeanor, and the situation being extremely urgent—a matter of life and death after all—Xiaoma didn’t say another word and gave up the driver’s seat to Ni Yang.

"Thank you for your trust." Ni Yang got into the driver’s seat and performed the startup sequence—ignition, engine start, throttle—all in one smooth motion.

Before the others in the car could even react, the vehicle had already shot out at lightning speed!

The two police officers exchanged a startled glance, each seeing the shock in the other’s eyes.

My God!

This was incredible!

No one had expected that a country girl could drive this well.

The journey which was supposed to take 10 minutes was completed by Ni Yang in just 5 minutes to the front of the hospital.

Now, even the way the two police officers looked at Ni Yang had changed.

"Comrade, what’s your name?" one of the officers asked as they brought Zhao Shuyue to the emergency room and finally had a moment to take down her statement.

Ni Yang responded in an even tone, "My name is Ni Yang, Ni with the ’individual’ component, and Yang with the meaning ’smoke’ as in ’The warm Sun’s rays cause smoke to rise from Lantian jade.’"

"And what relation is the elder to you?"

"..."

Over at Jinghua Village.

The police officer took out handcuffs from his belt and stood in front of Liu Qinian and Jiu Wentang, saying sternly, "The two of you, put your hands up! Don’t move!"

"Officer, there’s another one in the car!" a villager reminded.

Liu Ru was scared to death inside the car, "Officer, I’m not a thief, I’ve been wronged!"

The officers always carried out fair investigations, they would never mistakenly accuse an innocent person, nor would they let a guilty party go free; cold handcuffs were promptly clasped onto Liu Ru’s wrists, "Save your words for the police station. Xiaoliu, Xiaozhang, you all follow the Village Chief to the victim’s home to gather evidence!"

"Got it!"

The Village Chief led the way, "Come with me this way, comrades."

The officers didn’t finish taking statements and bringing Liu Qinian and Jiu Wentang’s family of three back to the police station until past 3 a.m.

At this time, under the doctor’s life-saving efforts, Zhao Shuyue had also awakened.

"Grandma Zhao, are you okay?" Ni Yang brightened up upon seeing Zhao Shuyue finally awake.

"Yangyang." Zhao Shuyue grasped Ni Yang’s hand.

Ni Yang asked again, "Grandma Zhao, are you all right?"

Zhao Shuyue shook her head, tears streaming down the corners of her eyes, "I’m fine, but I just never expected Liu Qinian to be so heartless! He could actually do such a thing!"

Although Zhao Shuyue had been in a coma, her consciousness had always been clear!

She could never have imagined that Liu Qinian would treat her this way!

Ni Yang reassured her, "It’s good you’re okay. Liu Qinian and Jiu Wentang have already been arrested by the officers. You just need to clarify the details to them later!"

"Right," Zhao Shuyue nodded.

The next morning, two police officers came to take Zhao Shuyue’s statement.

Zhao Shuyue recounted the whole event to the officers, "Officers, please, you must not let them get away with this! This was attempted murder! What they did was illegal! If it hadn’t been for Yangyang noticing in time last night, I, an old woman, probably wouldn’t be alive right now!"

"Don’t worry, ma’am, we will ensure justice is served!"

Liu Qi woke up the next morning to find his parents and sister weren’t home; as he wondered why, a servant came in, "Young master, the police officers are here to see you."

Police officers?

Liu Qi was stunned momentarily, puzzled as to why the police were looking for him.

He considered himself a good citizen, never having done anything wrong.

After learning the whole truth, Liu Qi turned pale, "Officer, there must be some mistake, right? My parents are good people; how could they possibly do such a thing? And my sister—although she can be a bit spoiled and arrogant, she’s not a bad person at heart!"

What on earth was going on?

He had just gone to sleep, so why had his parents and sister suddenly become suspects of attempted murder and burglary?

It must be that he hadn’t woken up yet!

He was still dreaming!

Liu Qi pinched his thigh hard.

Ouch!

It hurt!

He—he wasn’t dreaming?

Liu Qi suddenly laughed, "Officer, you must be joking with me this early in the morning!"

It had to be the officers playing a joke on him!
