Koi Fubao: Being loved by everyone on the road to escape from famine

Xiao Wang snorted and pointed angrily at the hideous wound on his arm: "Sir, please look, this is what she did."

The man driving the car was not to be outdone, stroking his swollen face and saying, "Sir, this face of mine was beaten by her fists and feet."

Aunt Chen looked down at the bloodstained dress on her chest. Although the pain had eased, the whip marks were still shocking. "Sir, she whipped me with a whip. I still feel pain all over my body."

The lawyer listened carefully to the testimonies of the three people, looking a little embarrassed, and then turned his gaze to Xiao Zhixue, full of doubts.

"Miss Xiao, is what they said true?"

Xiao Zhixue took her time, crossed her legs and swung them a few times before she stood up and walked around the arena leisurely. She said to the master with a smile, "Sir, please look at my body. Where are the traces of the whip and blade they mentioned?"

The master nodded slightly, as if in agreement: "Indeed, no murder weapon was found. It seems that this was not done by Miss Xiao."

However, the master's tone suddenly changed, and he sternly ordered the officer beside him: "Come here, drag these four people away, and give each of them twenty strokes of the cane!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Wang became anxious: "Sir, as a master, how can you make such a hasty conclusion? If she hadn't hurt us, would we have killed ourselves and framed her for no reason?"

"Yes, sir, you must not jump to conclusions!"

Aunt Chen was also eager to argue, but was tightly suppressed by the officer beside her.

The man driving the car felt even more indignant. They were clearly the victims, so why did the master not punish Xiao Zhixue but punish them instead?

He was not afraid of these low-level officers. He was confident in his martial arts and believed that he would win the fight with them.

The driver's face was livid, his eyes were like torches, and he looked directly at the lawyer: "Sir, I think your ability to judge cases is really limited. Why don't you ask your boss to come out and do justice?"

Ding Xiang was also very unwilling: "Just because she said there was no murder weapon, you believed it? Maybe she threw it away on the way back home?"

The lawyer turned to ask Liu Yu and the others: "Did you see Miss Xiao abandon any murder weapon on the way back to the mansion with you?"

Liu Yu walked forward calmly and responded respectfully: "Master, when we set out, we did not see Miss Xiao carrying any weapons, nor did we see the things they described left on the road."

Xiao Tingrui and Xiao Tingxuan were filled with doubts, secretly wondering when their little sister Xiao Zhixue's iconic whip and sharp blade had quietly disappeared from her side, and why they hadn't noticed anything?

However, in order to clear Xiao Zhixue's unjust accusation, the brothers resolutely put the heavy package on the ground and slowly opened it in front of everyone. Every move revealed their determination and fairness.

The scene inside the package was clearly visible: only two simple bamboo tubes and a lifeless snake were lying quietly inside, while the whip and sharp blade that everyone was expecting were nowhere to be found.

This discovery undoubtedly added more evidence to Xiao Zhixue's innocence.

The lawyer frowned, becoming more and more convinced that these four plaintiffs were fabricating stories and falsely accusing Xiao Zhixue.

From their recent conversation, it can be seen that the grudge between them seems to have existed for a long time, and perhaps there was a grudge between them, which prompted them to conspire and intend to harm the innocent Xiao Zhixue.

Deep down, the lawyer did not want to have any grudge against the woman who had saved his master. He harbored a secret feeling of gratitude towards her.

Now, with more solid evidence, it becomes more logical to deal with this matter.

"Please look, everyone. The murder weapon they mentioned has not appeared here. There are both human and material evidence. What other excuses do you have?"

This shout was loud and clear.

Xiao Wang and his group of four were instantly thrown into complete confusion and panic.

The lawyer's eyes turned slightly and he sent a subtle eye signal to the officers around him. Those well-trained officers quickly surrounded them, intending to forcibly take the four people out and punish them.

At this moment, the coachman who had been silent all of a sudden exploded, like a wild beast forced into a desperate situation.

He leaped up like an arrow and kicked the officer in front of him in the abdomen with great force. The officer immediately took several steps back and staggered.

Seeing this, the other officers rushed forward, trying to subdue the rebellious man.

But the coachman was prepared. With a nimble flick of his wrist, the long whip behind him seemed to come to life. With a whistling sound, he swung it fiercely at the besieging officials. For a moment, the court was in chaos and dust was flying.

Xiao Zhixue swiftly pulled her two brothers aside, her eyes flickering, and she was obviously looking forward to the show that was about to take place.

On the other side, Xiao Wang and Fang had already turned as pale as paper. They clung to each other tightly. The fear almost made them lose the ability to think.

Seeing this, Ding Xiang tried to escape in the chaos, but was captured by Liu Yu quickly.

Witnessing the coachman's desperate struggle, the lawyer became extremely anxious. He hurried to the front of the desk and slammed the gavel heavily in an attempt to regain control of the situation.

"This is simply lawless! Come quickly, arrest these four audacious lunatics, throw them in jail, and punish them severely!"

Before he finished speaking, the coachman snorted coldly and swung his whip again, forcing the approaching officers to step back, not daring to advance.

In a flash, the driver rushed to the master's front and pulled out a knife from the hidden place at his ankle.

The sharp short blade flashed with a cold light and was placed across the master's fragile neck.

"If you want to save your lives, let them all retreat!"

The master was suddenly covered in cold sweat, and the cold touch seemed like a foreshadowing of death.

Liu Yu and the officials present were all in a dilemma facing this sudden change, fearing that their master might meet with an accident. For a moment, the atmosphere was extremely tense.

"Did you hear me? Get out of here!"

The driver's voice was like thunder, piercing through the noisy air. He shouted again, causing the surrounding leaves to tremble slightly.

The master was startled, not daring to be negligent. His lips trembled as he shouted to the officials beside him, "Quick, make way! Don't miss the important matter!"

There was a hint of fear in his voice that was hard to conceal.

Liu Yu and his companions all looked nervous. They retreated step by step involuntarily, and their eyes were full of helplessness and uneasiness. It seemed that they knew that any rash action at this moment might lead to unpredictable consequences.

Dingxiang was quick-witted and quick-handed. She seized the opportunity and took advantage of the moment when everyone's attention was distracted to quietly go behind the coachman, thinking about how to find a glimmer of hope.

At the same time, Xiao Wang and Fang also struggled to get up from the ground. Their movements were slow and clumsy. It was obvious that the shock just now had not completely dissipated. However, in order to survive, they could only move slowly outwards with the driver's pace. Every step seemed to weigh as much as a thousand pounds.
