Chapter 108: The Evidence
"Ah… I don't know. I just arrived." The guy responded as he scratched the back of his head awkwardly.
Female officer: (☉。☉)!
Male officer: \(°o°)/
Scarlet: (・o・)
Christine: \(◎o◎)/
Crowd: (●__●)
Everybody had a reaction of their own. Nevertheless, they could not help but wonder about the intelligence of this person. It was clear that they were inquiring about what is happening here, but this guy rushed over, and claimed with confidence that he could assist the police officers.
But in the end, it turned out that he was completely clueless about what was happening here. Having just arrived, he had only heard rumors from the people discussing, but he had not observed anything by himself.
Feeling helpless, the female officer waved at the guy and asked him to go back. Then, she looked at the crowd that was laughing, with others still telling the newcomers about what was happening here.
"Can any one of you tell me what happened here?" The female officer asked as she looked at the crowd. Immediately, a few hands were raised into the air, obviously many people wishing to cooperate.
The female officer nodded her head in satisfaction. Then, she looked at one of the ladies and asked her to come over. When the lady came over, there was an excited expression on her face.
And for a moment, Jaden could not help but wonder if there was a reward for helping the police. After all, it was not impossible for a person to be rewarded in case they helped the police in dealing with criminals.
But right now, it was just a simple case that did not involve anything big. Nobody had been killed in this place, and the level of investigation was not that high. So, even if the people gave the information that they possessed about what had happened here, there was definitely no reward, other than a simple thank you, right?
"So, can you tell me what happened here?" The female officer asked with anticipation. At the same time, she took out a small notebook and a pen, ready to record what she was going to be told.
"There was a fight here." The lady immediately responded with confidence in her voice.
The female officer did not say anything, and neither did the pen that was above the notebook move. Instead, the female officer kept on listening, but after a while, she realized that the lady did not say anything else.
With a confused expression on her face, she looked up, only to see that the lady did not seem to have the intention of saying anything else. Additionally, there was a complacent expression on her face, as if she had already won.
The female officer blinked her eyes twice. Then, she looked at the lady with raised brows and said, "I already know that there was a fight here. Can you tell me more details about the fight?"
Upon hearing the question, the lady seemed to be contemplating for a while. Then, she began narrating what had happened. "There was a fight here. One person was fighting against 200 people. The fight was extremely brutal, and the one person was like a hero. He was capable of dealing with 200 people without breaking a sweat.
He…"
"Alright stop at that. Thank you for your assistance." The female officer whose expression was already complicated, waved her hand as she interrupted the lady from continuing to narrate what had happened.
Wasn't this too much of an exaggeration? Even if she had only heard rumors, why would she not question herself if what she was saying was possible? A single person dealing with 200 people? Additionally, he was not even breaking a sweat when dealing with them?
That was too ridiculous for her to believe. It was better for her to believe that a single person had been able to deal with 20 gangsters, rather than the one that she was being told.
Feeling a little helpless, she looked at the male officer beside her. As for the male officer, he was also feeling a little helpless about the intelligence of these people. Could it be that the intelligence of the human race was currently deteriorating or something?
Nevertheless, when he realized that the female officer was looking at him, he cleared his throat. Then, he spoke up, "I want somebody who has enough evidence of what had happened here to come forward and tell us what happened. Please, don't come over if you only know about rumors, or you have just arrived."
Upon hearing his words, a young man came forward. In his hand, there was a phone. In fact, it seemed that the guy was kind of live streaming. Considering that he was raising his phone into the air, changing angles.
It was clear that he was currently recording with a selfie camera. It was just that he lacked the selfie stick. Nevertheless, the male police officer could not help but feel that this generation was hopeless.
But since somebody had come forward, it was better for them to see if he had any evidence. If not, they could only send him away, and ask no more. It was better for them to believe what Scarlet had told them, rather than to believe this ridiculous crowd.
"Young man, can you set aside the matter related to your live stream first?" The male officer asked with a gentle smile on his face.
"That is the police officer speaking to me right now. I am about to be interviewed about what happened here. I do believe that all my viewers saw what happened here.
It is too bad that the show ended up quite fast. Otherwise, I would have enjoyed with you guys watching the show. Nevertheless, allow me to answer a few questions from the police officer, before we continue with the stream.
I promise you that I will be going around the city, looking for more exciting things to show to you guys. But of course, don't forget to support me. After all, it is too hard and time-consuming to be able to find something as interesting as this, and the cost of living is rising."
The male police officer was completely speechless. What the heck was wrong with this guy? Despite feeling a little helpless, he did not say anything, and waited until the guy put away his phone.
"Okay, can you tell us what happened here?" The officer asked.
"Of course I can. It is simple. What happened here is that there was a young man who was fighting with a group of gangsters when I was passing by. I was just focusing on live streaming, while looking for something interesting to show to my viewers. But I had not expected that…." The young man immediately responded.
"Okay, okay. We already know that you were live streaming. Can you at least go straight to the point?" Feeling a little impatient, the female officer asked.
"Sure. So it was like this, there was a fight that was going on here. There was a young man, who was fighting with more than 20 people. But despite facing a large number of people, he was able to easily take care of them.
In the end, not even a single attack landed on him, while he on the other hand easily dispatched them with a single attack. After that, he asked them to leave, and those that could walk immediately carried away those that could not." The young man responded with a serious expression.
The female officer who was preparing herself to write could not bring herself to do that. She could not believe what she had heard. Just like what Scarlet had said, it was only a single person who had dealt with over 20 people.
For a moment, she could not help but think that perhaps Scarlet had managed to bribe this group of people so that they could favor her in the story. Still, the possibility of that was quite low.
She looked at the male officer, and realized that his expression was the same as hers. It was clear that he did not believe the story that was being narrated by the young man.
"Do you have any evidence to prove what you said?" The female officer asked. The only way to prove what he was saying was true was to be given evidence. But it was going to be difficult to receive evidence, unless there was a person who was recording what was happening here.
"Of course, I do have the evidence." The young man enthusiastically replied. Then, he took out the phone that he had just put away, before scrolling several times.
After a few minutes, he finally gave the phone to the female officer. On the phone, a video was currently playing.
The two officers immediately put their attention into watching the video. And as the video progressed, they could not help but be completely surprised. Just as they had been told before, there was a fight that was ongoing.
Perhaps this young man's luck was quite good. In the video, it started with a group of three people approaching Scarlet and Jaden. In the end, it was the other party that provoked Scarlet first, considering the they were the ones that were talking.
Due to the distance from which the videos recorded from, the voice was not clear. But still, some words could be heard, and within those words, the two officer could immediately pick up threats.
And to say the least, the two of them were surprised by the fact that Scarlet actually possessed such incredible combat capability. And what surprised them even more was how Jaden had been able to easily deal with the group of gangsters.
