Chapter 144: How much do you want to let my daughter go?

The elderly couple saw their daughter in her current state, neither human nor ghost-like, and immediately went to the county public security bureau in anger.

The police comrades also stated that they would provide treatment for Bai Ruolin.

However, the investigation into her involvement in inciting others to commit crimes is ongoing, so meeting her is definitely not allowed.

The two caused a commotion at the police station, but seeing it was ineffective, they rushed to the military unit.

However, they were stopped at the gate.

The two immediately wanted to see Commissar Wang, but after waiting for half a day, there was no sign of Commissar Wang.

In the end, the two caused a scene at the gate, and Commissar Wang finally brought Shen Li out to meet them outside the gate.

Upon meeting, Bai’s mother questioned Commissar Wang about not protecting their daughter.

Commissar Wang, feeling angry, began to list out all the things Bai Ruolin had done during her time in the military unit.

“This girl is rotten to the core. If her own parents couldn’t educate her properly, how can I, an outsider, manage her?”

“Wang, what do you mean?”

“Literally. Your daughter is now a criminal. Have you asked the victim how they feel? You just came here complaining that others didn’t protect her.”

The Bai family couple had already been humiliated outside.

Now, they encountered the same attitude from Commissar Wang, and they were about to cause a scene.

Seeing this, Shen Li advised, “It’s no use talking to our Old Wang about this. You should go find the victim. If she is willing to forgive, maybe your daughter will receive a lighter sentence.”

“However, this isn’t the first time your daughter has harmed someone. I think it will be difficult. You decide whether to go or not.”

Upon hearing this, the two immediately decided to find Su Yi.

After some inquiries, they learned that she had opened a restaurant in town.

They also found out that she was from out of town and didn’t have any relatives or influence here.

Thus, they stormed into the restaurant, demanding to see Su Yi.

Li Jianguo and Zhang Tianhua, hearing this, came out with knives, “Who’s looking for Su Yi?”

These past few days, everyone had been a bit sensitive, and seeing someone wanting to cause trouble, they became vigilant.

The Bai family couple, seeing this, were startled, “What are you doing? We’re here to talk to Su Yi. Call your boss over.”

Xu Xiaoqin sneered, “Talking to someone and acting like that? We thought you were here to cause trouble.”

Su Yi was in the backyard at the moment. Hearing the commotion, she walked over.

Seeing that they were strangers, she asked, “What can I do for you?”

Bai’s mother, without any introduction, directly said, “I heard you accused my daughter of harming you? But aren’t you standing here perfectly fine? My daughter is lying in bed unable to move.”

Upon hearing this, everyone understood that these two were Bai Ruolin’s parents.

Before Su Yi could speak, everyone became angry, “How dare you? Your daughter committed a crime, and you still have the audacity to come here and cause trouble for the victim?”

“Exactly, do you know what your daughter did? If you don’t know, go ask the police. What’s the point of coming here?”

Seeing that she couldn’t reason with them, Bai’s mother directly shouted, “Comrade Su, just tell us your price. How much do you want to let my daughter go?”

Su Yi curled her lips, “I don’t need money, and I’m not as kind as you think to forgive someone who hurt me. If you don’t leave, I’ll have to call the police!”

Being publicly rejected, Bai’s father also felt a little embarrassed.

“Comrade Su, you should be lenient when you can. Besides, my daughter is also a victim. Compared to her, you are lucky enough.”

As soon as the words were spoken, a clear and cold male voice rang out from outside the door-

“Your daughter is a victim, that’s true, but it’s not Su Yi’s fault!”

“If you’re looking for the person who hurt your daughter, go to the police station. You’ve come to the wrong place!”

The Bai family couple, hearing the voice, froze and looked up.

Seeing that the man was handsome and dignified, they were speechless for a moment.

Zhou Jinchuan spoke while walking towards Su Yi, then continued, “Your daughter made a mistake and should bear her own responsibility. What right do you have to come here and talk about the victim?”

He spoke in a way that made the two speechless.

Zhang Tianhua and the others also echoed, “Yes, get out, you’re not welcome here. Don’t come back again!”

Bai’s mother naturally refused to leave, pointing at Zhou Jinchuan and saying, “Who are you?”

Zhou Jinchuan sneered, “Since you know to come here and plead, why didn’t you investigate beforehand? It seems your relationship with Commissar Wang isn’t that good!”

Bai’s father was stunned for a moment, then quickly asked, “You are Commander Zhou, right?”

He greeted him and was about to get closer, but Bai’s mother pulled him back.

She whispered, “Didn’t you see his attitude? He’s clearly the person’s companion, how could he help us.”

Then she raised her voice, “Who do you think you are? It’s Commander Zhou! I know you’re the biggest leader in this military unit, even Commissar Wang gives you some respect.”

“But you should find out, the Bai family is also influential in the capital. We have many friends and connections. If you’re deliberately making things difficult today, I guarantee your future path won’t be so smooth either.”

Zhou Jinchuan burst into laughter, “Bai family? I’ve never heard of any Bai family when I was in the capital.”

Bai’s father saw the mockery in his words and was also furious, “It’s normal that you haven’t heard of it in this small place. You can go and find out, so you won’t regret it later.”

Seeing the two ganging up on Zhou Jinchuan, Su Yi also spoke up in support, “This is the first time I’ve heard of someone committing a crime and having the right to rely on their family background and connections?”

“According to your logic, anyone with a powerful background can break the law and bully others at will?”

Bai’s mother glared at the two, “There’s no need to talk so much with you. I advise you to find out the truth as soon as possible, otherwise, you will regret it later. Some people are not someone you can provoke.”

Zhou Jinchuan curled his lips meaningfully, then walked to the phone and quickly dialed a series of numbers.

As soon as the call connected, he directly asked, “Second Uncle, I have a question. Have you heard of the Bai family in the capital?”

“What? You’re out and about all day and haven’t heard of them? I thought I was the only one who was ignorant.”

“That’s not what I meant, just tell me, how does it compare to the Zhou family?”

“Well, there’s something. Two people claiming to be influential members of the Bai family in the capital came to make trouble for me and your niece, saying that they would make me suffer.”

“I’m not joking, they came to my doorstep. Go and find out for me, the sooner the better. And don’t let the old man know.”

After finishing, Zhou Jinchuan showed the phone to the two, “Go and find out, whether you wait or not is up to you.”

Bai’s father and mother looked at each other, their faces a little unnatural.

“You, you just now, the Zhou family you mentioned, which one is it?”
