After a prolonged silence in the car, the middle-aged police officer spoke:
"Perhaps it is just as you speculated, we are the police, everything must be based on real evidence."
"Let's just file a case against Zhao Duo by the book, according to that surveillance footage. The son of a village chief daring to beat someone up on the street, even using a knife."
"If he was set up, he had it coming," he concluded.
Sun Qian nodded but did not speak any further, yet the serene face of Zhang Xiaomeng kept surfacing in her mind.
...
Zhang Guang learned about the incident in the village from the tip-off by his neighbor Zhang Erhe.
He dropped his hoe and hurried back home from the back mountain.
At home, Zhang Xiaomeng was cooking for him.
Seeing his son truly safe and sound, Zhang Guang finally took a deep breath of relief.
Then his face showed a thoughtful expression as he looked at Zhang Xiaomeng and said:
"Xiaomeng, did you plan today's incident?"
