Chapter 654: Call the Police

In the face of a man who was obviously stronger than her, the girl had already mustered up a lot of courage to say such words.
As she spoke, she had already taken out her phone. The man wanted to reach out to stop her, but he could not move because of the pain in his hand. He could only watch helplessly as the girl typed on her cell phone. Just as the girl was about to press and dial, someone stopped her.
“Young lady, this is a ghost market. The police can’t control this place. Besides, even if you really hit him, the police might not be able to come.”
“That’s right, that’s right. When the police come, they’ll affect our stall. Stop fighting. Just teach them a lesson.”
“Miss, you have to know to let people off when possible. Besides, why do you have to do something useless?”
The girl looked at her phone with a confused expression. She glanced at the people around her and saw the smugness in the eyes of the man kneeling on the ground.
She was so indignant, but it was always like this. There were always endless excuses, but she always compromised because of this reason.
The girl’s hand that was holding the cell phone trembled slightly, but after hesitating for a long time, the girl slowly put it down. The man’s eyes were even more smug, and the people around him looked like they were watching a good show.
“Call.” At this moment, a slender hand held the girl back. Her voice was as mellow as a clear spring, especially gentle, but it shattered all the bad voices, leaving only Gu Man’s voice in the girl’s ears.
Gu Man looked at the onlookers with an especially cold gaze. “What has her calling got to do with you? Look for me if you’re unhappy.”
They had already seen how powerful Gu Man was just now. How could they not know what was good for them and go up to her now? The ghost market that was bustling just now quietened down at this moment.
Xiang Yin stood at the side. “Do you need my help?”
“No need.” Gu Man looked at the contact on her phone and found Li Hua.
She only sent five words: Come to the ghost market.
Even if it was just these four words, she believed that Li Hua could understand what she meant.
On the other side, the girl had already picked up her phone and called the police. Seeing that the situation had become serious, the man forced himself to stand up and planned to escape while they were not paying attention.
However, just as the man stood up straight, a pair of feet reached out from the side and kicked him to the ground. Gu Man said threateningly, “If you’re honest, you might not be detained for long, but it’s different if you escape.”
Her cell phone vibrated two or three times. It was a message from Li Hua. He only sent an OK emoji.
Gu Man put her phone back into her pocket and stood there looking at the man. His every move was under surveillance, and there was no way to find a good time to escape.
The police were very efficient. Perhaps it was because they had not received any cases from the ghost market, but there were many police officers who came.
They had thought that it would be more troublesome to distance themselves from work, but they did not expect those people to be so cooperative.
During the inspection, Li Hua walked out and looked at Gu Man with a complicated expression.
Ever since Gu Man told him that they did not need to continue pursuing the matter with the Gu family, the two of them had not contacted each other. However, he had actually been investigating if Gu Man was in any danger in private.
Unexpectedly, before he could investigate, Gu Man’s scandals erupted. He stopped what he was doing and was even more puzzled about whether what he had done was right.
However, this matter was groundless and there were reversals one after another. Gu Man successfully washed away the stain on her body. Just as Li Hua was about to continue opening the sealed case and pursue the secret, he received another message from Gu Man.
There were many connections in the ghost market, and this was also a place that all the police ignored. It was not because of how powerful they were, but because the people involved were basically the upper echelons. They could not interfere at all.
However, of course, it was not that they could not interfere at all, as long as there was an existence that could keep the ghost market in check, and Gu Man happened to provide them with this opportunity.
Therefore, there were many police officers who came here this time. Firstly, they were curious about what kind of case could make them step into this mysterious place..
