Chapter 603: Who reported the case?

Unexpectedly, as soon as she finished speaking, there was a burst of footsteps outside the yard.

Immediately, a group of government officials ran in from the door. After entering the courtyard, they pointed their weapons at Zhang Qisi.

Then, a man dressed as a headhunter came in from behind and said as he walked into the yard:

"Stop yelling! We know there is a murderer here, and we are here to arrest him!"

Zhang Qishi and Zhang Wangcai in the courtyard were so frightened that their legs became weak when they saw so many government servants coming in.

Hearing what the arrester said, Zhang Qishi, who had been clamoring to report to the police just now, was so frightened that she fell to the ground.

Zhang Wangcai, who was standing by the door, felt so hot that he peed in fear.

Mrs. Zhang Qi forced herself to remain calm and argued:

"Liu, Capt. Liu, why are you here? You misunderstood. The murderer I was talking about was the little girl inside! She, she, together with my nephew, wanted to poison my eldest brother and kill my Qi family's ancestors. We take possession of Shanrentang Pharmacy. Mr. Head Catcher, please let someone go in and catch those two little brats who are seeking wealth and murder!"

Liu Captou snorted coldly: "Whoever seeks wealth and murder will be judged by the magistrate."

After saying this and waving his hands, the government officials behind him rushed forward and took Zhang Qishi and Zhang Wangcai into custody.

Two more government officials rushed into the house and dragged out Zhang Wangcai's father, Zhang Fugui, who was as weak as a dead dog.

Mrs. Zhang Qi shouted that she was wronged: "Master Catcher, you have misunderstood. It is really not us who seek wealth and death! It is the two little bastards inside. You should arrest them!"

Liu Captou was impatient to listen to her sophistry, and waved his hand to ask the government officials to take the person away first.

At this time, Qi Tiandong in the back room shouted in surprise: "Dad, are you awake? Are you okay? Wuwu..."

Zhang Qishi, who was being grabbed by the government officials and about to lock the chains, heard this. She didn't know where the strength came from, and she threw off the restraints of the government officials and ran into the house.

She knelt down in front of Shopkeeper Qi with a bang and begged with tears in her eyes:

"Brother, brother, please help me! Brother, please tell the officials that it's not me who wants to harm you. I really didn't harm you, brother! It's this stinky girl! It's her who wants to poison you. Hurry up. Witness for me! Brother..."

With the support of Angelica and Qi Tiandong, Shopkeeper Qi sat up from the bed and leaned on Angelica.

At this time, his complexion had returned to rosy, and he no longer had asthma or coughing. Although he was still a little weak, he looked much better than before he fell into coma.

He looked at Mrs. Zhang Qi who was kneeling in front of the bed, her eyes full of regret and disappointment.

"You call me big brother, but I don't dare to act like that. From now on, we will never have any contact with each other again! I will never allow a vicious woman who wants to harm me and my son to have another chance to do something to us!"

"Brother, listen to me! I really didn't harm you. You must believe me. I am your biological sister! My father and mother said before they died that you should take good care of me. How can you be so unfeeling to me? My parents will not rest in peace even if they are under Jiuquan!"

Shopkeeper Qi angrily yelled: "It's you who make my parents unable to rest in peace! My parents died young and I raised you up. You didn't listen to my advice and insisted on marrying Zhang Fugui. I also gave most of the money in the family to You bought a dowry and let you marry in glory. I owe you nothing, but you have no regard for the friendship between us brothers and sisters for so many years, and you have not cared about the fact that I raised you like a daughter. I poisoned myself to death, and I also wanted to kill the only seedling of our Qi family, so that the Qi family would lose its incense! How can you have the nerve to talk about your parents? Are you not afraid of your father who is under Jiuquan? When my mother and the ancestors of the Qi family saw how you mutilated your siblings and cut off the incense of the Qi family, they wished they could come out from under the ground and come to settle accounts with you in the middle of the night?"

Shopkeeper Qi's voice was very sad. This sister was raised like a jewel by his eldest brother.

I thought that even if my sister didn't thank him for raising her, she would still have admiration for him as an older brother. The relationship between brother and sister would never change in this life.

But he didn't expect that his sister, whom he had worked so hard to raise, wanted him to die so that he could take over the ancestral pharmacy that was used to raise her and marry her into a wealthy family. The Qi family's pharmacy changed its surname to Zhang!

At this moment, Shopkeeper Qi's heart felt cold.

If his sister had only attacked him, and now that he was no longer in harm's way, he might still beg the prefect for the sake of his parents and give her a lighter sentence.

However, when he learned that she actually dared to attack his only son and the only heir of the Qi family, he absolutely couldn't tolerate it!

Seeing her eldest brother, who had always loved her so much, look at her with such strange and cold eyes, and hearing her cold and heartless accusations, Zhang Qishi felt anxious and panicked.

She felt inexplicably as if something very precious to her was leaving her, and she would never have it again.

She didn't dare to look at her eldest brother again, lowered her head and begged for mercy, asking him to help her get rid of the crime.

The two government officials who she broke free from had already ran in, twisted her hands behind her back, locked them with chains, and dragged her away.

"Brother, save me! Brother, I was wrong, I really know I was wrong! I never dare again! Please save me! Please save me! Brother, I am your sister, you can't be so cruel to me. ! I don’t want to go to jail, I don’t want to get slapped! Brother, please beg the officials and let me go, oh oh oh..."

However, Shopkeeper Qi who was sitting on the bed didn't say a word and didn't even want to look at her again. She was dragged to the yard by two government servants to be with her husband and son.

Liu Captou said to Qi Tiandong who followed the government servant out of the yard:

"It's getting late today. We'll escort Zhang Fugui and the other three back to the government prison for the time being. The case will be brought to court tomorrow for trial. We also ask shopkeeper Qi, Shaodong and the pharmacy clerk to come to court together to await trial. We must arrive on time tomorrow!"

Qi Tiandong quickly bowed deeply and said:

"Yes. Tomorrow, my father, I, and Angelica will definitely arrive at the government office on time to await trial. Thank you, Mr. Captor, for arriving in time! May I ask who reported the case?"

Capt. Liu glanced outside the courtyard door and replied calmly:

"Of course someone heard the noise here and went to report the crime. I just happened to pass by on the street in front and rushed over immediately."

After saying that, he didn't want to say any more, waved his hand, and led a group of government officials to escort the three Zhang Qisi away.

Qi Tiandong was left with a puzzled look on his face, who called the Yamen servant so quickly? Even if they happened to meet on the street, it couldn't be so fast, right?

However, no matter how much he couldn't figure it out, no one came to answer it for him.
