I'm a sophomore in college, what the heck is this "male god cultivation system"?

Chapter 97 Transition
As the saying goes, no one knows a child better than their mother. Seeing Deng Jie's appearance, Tang Ping's heart skipped a beat.

Before she could say anything, Tang Ping turned her head and glanced at the "accident scene" again. Two cars had been overturned. Although she didn't know exactly how many cars were affected, she was sure that she would have to pay a lot of money in compensation.

Tang Ping took a deep breath, trying her best to calm herself down. Then, she took Deng Jie's hand and walked out of the crowd without making a sound, heading towards Deng Chen and his wife's house.

Enter the house and close the door.

Tang Ping then looked at Deng Jie with a gloomy expression. Although she tried her best to restrain herself, her voice still revealed a hint of anger and agitation.

"Tell me, was that your doing on the lawn?!"

"It wasn't me..." Deng Jie wanted to put up a fight, but seeing his mother's expression, he finally gave in.

"I... I just threw a firecracker into the manhole cover, I didn't know it would turn out like this..."

Upon hearing Deng Jie's admission, Tang Ping felt dizzy and it took her a while to recover.

Now that things have come to this, it's too late to blame Deng Jie.

"You'd better stay on the second floor right now and don't go anywhere," Tang Ping said sternly. "And if anyone asks you later, just say you were watching TV on the second floor the whole time and didn't go anywhere, understand?"

"I heard you." Deng Jie knew he had caused trouble, his hands tightly gripping the hem of his clothes, not daring to lift his head.

After doing all this, Tang Ping hurriedly left the house and rushed towards Deng Zheng.

If the village hadn't installed surveillance cameras in the past two years, this matter might have been able to be muddied out and forgotten.

……

Today is Lunar New Year's Eve, and many young people have come to the village to visit the elderly. They all drove here, and some even borrowed or rented cars to show off. Now, fearing that they might be affected, they all stand next to their cars, cursing the culprits and calling the police.

Chen Yan, who had been observing the surroundings, also noticed the subtle movements of Tang Ping and her son. He had a general idea of ​​what was going on, then gently patted Deng Qian and silently mouthed the words.

Deng Qian quickly understood Chen Yan's meaning. She was initially surprised, then glared fiercely at Tang Ping. Just as she was about to speak to Deng Chen and his wife, she saw someone suddenly get out of the car and shout:
"Don't worry, don't worry, I've set up time-lapse monitoring here. I have a clue, it's a child..."

Upon hearing this, everyone instantly became excited... The victim was naturally eager to find the "culprit," while the onlookers were equally curious about who had done it.

Moreover, families with children are also being subjected to "special scrutiny" from those around them, with some parents even starting to question their own children.

Meanwhile, many people gathered around "Monitor Bro" and watched the surveillance footage with him. Soon, they found the key person in the footage.

"Whose child is this!" The security guard held up his phone, showed the screenshot to someone nearby, and asked, "This is the child who threw firecrackers into the manhole cover, causing a methane explosion. Parents, come out and solve the problem quickly."

The photo was quickly scanned by onlookers, and the person recognized it...

"Old Deng, this looks like your grandson!" Someone said this. Deng Chen took the phone, glanced at it briefly, and then...

"Xiaoping, where is your Xiaojie now?"

Tang Ping felt a sudden darkness before her eyes, and the next second, a wave of dizziness completely enveloped her, causing her to fall to the ground with a thud.

……

For the next half day, aside from being questioned at the police station, Chen Yan wasn't significantly affected. Deng Qian bluntly stated in the "Loving Family" group chat that the Deng Zheng family should handle the matter, as she wouldn't help in any way, and then simply took Chen Yan and left.

The younger brother, Deng Zhi, said the same thing, "I don't have any money to begin with, so don't expect me to lose money with you." As for the two elderly people, after transferring 50,000 yuan to Deng Zheng, they said, "We have helped their family a lot over the years, so don't expect any more of their savings. They belong to his second sister and third brother."

To be fair, although Deng Zhi has never had a stable job over the years and relies entirely on daily wages to earn money, and occasionally needs financial assistance from his family, his own living expenses are low, so he is really not as good as his older brother when it comes to "leeching off" his family.

The money Deng Zheng used to buy a large truck, the money for his daughter's art lessons, and even the money for his two children's tutoring, was largely funded by his parents...

After transferring the money to Deng Zheng, the two elderly people couldn't go back to their hometown, so they simply went to their youngest son's place and started living with "Deng Zhi".

……

Although Deng Qian and Chen Yan escaped unscathed, it was already past seven o'clock by the time they finished all the miscellaneous tasks. It was New Year's Eve, and there were hardly any restaurants on the street, so the mother and son simply ate together at home.

Deng Qian was the head chef, and Chen Yan assisted her. The two chatted as they worked.

Of course, the topic of the conversation was "It's really bad luck to run into a kid like this," to which Chen Yan agreed wholeheartedly, and then thought of a phrase that would become very popular in the future.

With improved techniques for preventing miscarriage, all sorts of strange and unusual things can emerge.

On Lunar New Year's Eve, Chen Yan and Deng Qian stayed at home together for the whole day.

The Spring Festival Gala was still boring, so boring that Chen Yan started playing video games with his friends after watching for less than half an hour.

Starting from the first day of the Lunar New Year, it was all about visiting relatives... Chen Yan didn't have many relatives to visit, and he finished visiting them in less than five days.

It's worth mentioning that because of Deng Jie's "masterpiece," Deng Zheng ended his holiday on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year and started his long-distance driving trip.

At first, he wanted to sell the jade in his possession to his two partners. Everything was fine at first, but as soon as Deng Zheng said he wanted to "sell the stones," the other two partners immediately "disappeared."

At this point, Deng Zheng vaguely realized something was wrong. He found a more experienced master craftsman, and the final conclusion was that the stone might sell for 10,000 yuan.

Having been scammed out of 300,000 yuan and still unsure of how much he would have to pay back, Deng Zheng didn't even have time to grieve; he immediately started driving long-distance trucks.

The peaceful life lasted less than a day. On the morning of the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, Chen Yan received a bombshell message.

At 10:30 a.m., while Chen Yan was playing a game, he suddenly received a call from Wen Ya.

At first, Chen Yan thought the other party wanted to say "Happy New Year" to him, so he didn't think much of it and answered the phone, subconsciously saying, "Happy New Year, Sister Wenya."

"Chen Yan, are you free right now...?"

Although it was just a phone conversation, Chen Yan still sensed a strong unease in her voice...

"What's wrong, Sister Wenya? Did something happen?"

"Zheng Feng... Zheng Feng killed someone!"
