Along with the sound of a broken gong, a fat figure flashed out from the kitchen of the restaurant.
The fat face looked left and right, and soon found Ding Ning, Ding Xiang, and Chu Xingyun.
Flustered and exasperated, the fat figure quickly walked out and aggressively walked in front of the three people.
Upon closer inspection, it was an extremely fat middle-aged man with an oily face. He held a huge kitchen knife in his hand and looked like a fiend.
As he approached, the fat man sized up Chu Xingyun and Ding Xiang with his beady eyes. His expression instantly became even more ferocious.
Facing the fat man, Ding Ning's delicate body couldn't help but shrink. Although her expression didn't change, it was obvious that her body had automatically entered a state of fear.
Ding Ning clenched her teeth and stubbornly said, "My little sister is here. I want to accompany her and say a few words."
Facing the stubborn Ding Ning, the fat man said angrily, "I think you're tired of living. Why … Don't I have to do business now that your little sister is here? Hurry up and serve the dishes! "
With a cold snort, Chu Xingyun said, "Serve the dishes? I think … you should first explain how the injury on her head was healed. Otherwise, Ding Xiang will be very angry and the consequences will be very serious. "
Looking up and down at Chu Xingyun, the fat man curled his lips in disdain. Obviously … he was used to judging people by their appearance and had drawn the wrong conclusion from Chu Xingyun's coarse clothes.
Raising the kitchen knife in his hand and pointing it at Chu Xingyun, the fat man said arrogantly, "I was the one who injured her. What can you do to me? Believe it or not, I'll chop her up on the spot! "
What? You actually dared to hit my sister!
Ding Xiang looked angrily at the fat man. If she could, she really wanted to pounce on him and scratch his face.
However, looking at the huge kitchen knife in his hand, Ding Xiang was worried that she couldn't beat him.
Slap!
Just as Lilac was feeling angry and angry, a crisp voice rang out.
As the white light flashed, the fat man felt his brain explode. An indescribable pain caused him to feel dizzy for a short while.
Sitting down on the ground, the fat man spat out a mouthful of blood.
Mixed within the blood were white objects. Upon closer inspection, they were clearly complete teeth.
Without a doubt, Chu Xingyun's slap had caused the fat man's entire left row of teeth to fall out.
After being dizzy for a long time, the fat man finally woke up. Feeling the intense pain on his face and mouth, and looking at the pool of blood and teeth in front of him, he immediately screamed like a pig being slaughtered.
Hearing this scream, another fat figure jumped out of the kitchen.
Taking a closer look, it was an incomparably stout woman. She also had a fat head and big ears. She and the fat man looked like husband and wife.
She ran to the fat man's side in a few steps. The fat woman suddenly opened her throat and screamed like a pig being slaughtered. "Not good! Someone … someone is killing!"
The ear-piercing scream pierced through the night and spread far and wide.
Although it was located in the suburbs, it was still a part of Nanming City. Therefore, the security here was very good.
Following the fat woman's pig-slaughtering scream, it quickly attracted the patrolling guards in the surroundings.
Soon, three fully armed soldiers ran over and blocked the entrance of the restaurant. Anyone who dared to cause trouble in Nanming City could forget about escaping.
"What's going on? Who dares to kill in Nanming City?!" A young officer walked in with a dignified voice.
When faced with this scene, Ding Xiang, who hadn't seen much of the world, leaned against Chu Xingyun in fear. Her small hands tightly gripped Chu Xingyun's arm as her body trembled.
As for Ding Ning, although his complexion had also become deathly pale without a trace of blood, he still stood there bravely and vaguely protected Chu Xingyun and Ding Xiang.
The guilty party complained first. When the fat woman saw the patrolling guards appear, she immediately pointed at Chu Xingyun and said, "It's them. They wanted to kill someone. If you hadn't come early, we would have already been killed."
When faced with the woman's false accusation, Ding Xiang didn't know what to say. She suddenly flashed out and shouted, "Who killed someone? Big Brother Luo Yun only gave him a slap."
Chu Xingyun covered his forehead with a wry smile. He didn't know what to say in response to Ding Xiang's naive and sweet words.
Although Ding Xiang's original intention was to help Chu Xingyun, her words confirmed the fact that Chu Xingyun had made the first move.
As expected, when she heard Shui Liu Xiang's explanation, the fat woman smiled proudly and said loudly, "Since you admit that he made the first move, then things will be easier. Now … it's not us who have to prove anything, but you who have to prove that you really didn't want to kill anyone."
When he heard the fat woman's words, the officer nodded and turned to Chu Xingyun. "That's right. According to the laws of Nanming City, since you made the first move, then you have the intention to kill. If you can't prove that you didn't intend to kill anyone, then you will be sentenced to death!"
What?!
When she heard the officer's words, Ding Xiang realized that she had actually done such a foolish thing.
Although it was indeed Chu Xingyun who made the first move, this sentence couldn't be said by her companion no matter what.
If even her companion agreed that Chu Xingyun was the one who made the first move, then it could already be confirmed as the truth.
However, whether one wanted to kill someone or not was a very subjective matter. Apart from Chu Xingyun, who else would know?
Fortunately, Chu Xingyun wasn't a little rookie who hadn't seen the world, nor was he an idiot without wisdom. Thus … even when faced with such a situation, he still smiled leisurely.
Pointing at the fat man on the ground, Chu Xingyun said, "First of all, I didn't make the first move. He pointed the kitchen knife at me first. I was also retaliating in self-defense."
After a pause, Chu Xingyun continued, "Of course, you can choose not to believe me, but I think … with so many diners around and so many onlookers outside, they can all testify."
As soon as Chu Xingyun's words fell, voices of support came from the surrounding crowd.
That's right, it was that fat man who pointed the knife at him first. I can testify, I can also testify, and me, me! I …
Listening to everyone's chatter, the sergeant was stunned. Then, he gave Lilac a strange look. This was really a pig teammate.
If it wasn't for Ding Xiang's words, then the case would have been settled by now. However, since Ding Xiang had confirmed that Chu Xingyun made the first move, then according to the rules, Ding Xiang's evidence was more credible.
Shrugging, the officer said, "Although both sides have testimonies, but … this lady's testimony is more credible, so … you still have to prove that you didn't intend to kill."
Ah!
Ding Xiang was completely dumbfounded by the officer's words.
Panicking, she grabbed Chu Xingyun's hand and said, "No … I take back my …"
Without waiting for Ding Xiang to finish speaking, Ding Ning covered Ding Xiang's mouth, lowered his voice, and said in Ding Xiang's ear, "Those who deliberately give false testimony will be beheaded in public! You don't want to die, do you? "
I! You! This …
Hearing her sister's words, Ding Xiang suddenly burst into tears. How could she be so stupid? How could she send her man to the knife's edge? Moreover … if her sister hadn't stopped her in time, she would have paid for it herself.
Helplessly shaking his head, Chu Xingyun said, "Alright, don't speak. I'll settle this matter myself."
Ding Xiang tightly pursed her lips and nodded repeatedly, but didn't dare to say a word.
