Chapter 1118:1118 Zhu Ren Was Taken Away
Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Tao Zhi picked up Tian Tian and was about to leave when someone suddenly jumped out from the corner and blocked Tao Zhi’s way.
“Tao Zhi…Why did you get so many good things?” Zhu Ren gritted his teeth. Why are you the eldest young master of the Tao family in the Capital?”
“You’re crazy!” Tao Zhi kicked Zhu Ren’s chest, causing him to roll on the ground. “Get lost!”
Then, he carried Tian Tian and left.
Tan Rou instructed, “Tian Tian has been starving for almost three days now. She can’t eat oily food now. It’s best to cook some plain porridge for her.”
“Okay, I’ll take good care of her. I’ll leave the rest to you guys,” Tao Zhi said.
Tan Rou nodded. “Don’t be too angry. The most important thing now is to take care of Tiantian. We’ll talk about the rest when she wakes up.”
She was worried that Tao Zhi would continue to blame himself for this. Tao Zhi sighed. “I understand.”
The next step was to deal with Zhu Ren’s matter. The police were right next to him, so Tan Rou couldn’t do anything to Zhu Ren. She squatted down and pinched Zhu Ren’s legs a few times. The blood on his legs stopped flowing out.
Zhu Ren couldn’t bleed too much. If he died like this, it would be too easy on him.
The police officers who followed her felt that it was very magical. They were still thinking about how to treat the wound. They did not expect that the little girl would press on the criminal’s leg a few times and the wound would stop bleeding.
“What was that gunshot just now? Which one of you shot someone?” the captain asked coldly.
Tan Rou knew that this matter could not be hidden. Zhu Ren could not have shot her in the leg. Tian Tian was still unconscious, so she wasn’t the one who got shot either. There were only three of them inside which naturally meant that she was the one who shot Zhu Ren in the leg.
“Officer, I fired those two shots just now.” Tan Rou looked scared again. “At that time, that bad guy said he was going to shoot us. I was so scared that I rushed up and tried to snatch his gun but I don’t know how I did it, so I shot him in the leg.”
The captain did not believe Tan Ron’s words. “Is your marksmanship that accurate? He didn’t hit anywhere else but his knees. In my opinion, it shouldn’t be easy to hit the knee, right?”
Tan Rou naturally had her own excuse. “When I snatched the gun over, the muzzle was facing down. Then, I shifted the gun to the side and aimed it at his knee. At that time, I was thinking of using up all the bullets in the gun. As long as I used up all the bullets, he wouldn’t be able to hit us.”
The captain of the criminal police team still had a conflicted expression on his face. “But…”
Zhuang Liu said, “We’re both shooting enthusiasts. When we’re free, we’ll go to the shooting club to practice. Although we’re not using real guns, the difference isn’t that big, so it’s not unusual for us to shoot.”
Tan Rou quickly chimed in. “Families like ours are very vulnerable to assassination. That’s why we can only learn some self-defense skills.”
The captain could only believe it, but he reminded him, “In the future, if you encounter such a situation, don’t rush forward rashly again. You got your hands on the pistol this time but you might not be lucky next time. If you get hurt in the process of handling it, it won’t be good.”
Tan Rou listened obediently. “Alright, officer. I won’t take any more risks.”
This was obviously a lie. Even a room full of police officers combined might not be as powerful as her. Why would Tan Rou listen to these police officers? Moreover, if they listened to the police, they would probably have to come over and collect Tian Tian’s body by now. Sometimes, one still had to rely on his own judgment.
The matter was finally resolved. All that was left was to interrogate him. Zhu Ren was injured, and the police had to take him to the hospital for treatment. The victim and the victim’s family probably did not have time to be questioned by the police, so the captain of the criminal police planned to leave with his men first.
“Miss Tan Rou, tomorrow morning at around ten o’clock, our men will send someone over to ask more about the situation. I wonder if it’s convenient for you?” the captain asked.
Tan Rou said, “Let’s wait for another two days. The criminal has been caught. There’s no need to be afraid of him escaping. My sister-in-law’s condition isn’t very good. I want to wait for her to fully recover before accepting the police’s questioning.”
