Chapter 179 Police Station Turmoil (3)
"Manager Zhang, Miss An’s issue is our issue as well. I still have some influence in Xuandu, so I will make a call to the police station in a moment and try to bail Miss An out," he said. "That would be wonderful. Minister Qiu, your concern is much appreciated. After Miss An gets out, I will convey yours and your wife’s kindness to her," Zhang Yuksheng was very excited. With Qiu Yiping’s help, things were looking much better.
After hanging up the call, Zhang Yuksheng hadn’t even had a chance to speak before the phone started ringing off the hook again. The callers were all former patients who had been treated by An Yiqing, including Qiao Chengchun, Lin Chengming, and some others that Zhang Yuksheng had never met. They all personally expressed their determination to pressure the police station to rescue An Yiqing.
It was only at this moment that Zhang Yuksheng fully understood that although An Yiqing had only been in Xuandu for two months, her network was slowly penetrating the entire city. Although she hadn’t yet reached the stage where she could call the wind and summon the rain, Zhang Yuksheng knew it was only a matter of time!
...
The police station, interrogation room.
In the enclosed space, a glaring white light made the atmosphere somewhat oppressive. An Yiqing, Zhao Lingling, and Zhang Ping were sitting in a triangular formation on chairs, making the atmosphere particularly awkward and rigid.
"Lingling..." Zhang Ping’s voice came out weak, clearly lacking confidence, "The captain just gave his orders; An Yiqing is not a criminal, and we shouldn’t handcuff her."
"What do you mean she’s not a criminal? She just hasn’t been convicted yet! She’s a murderer!" Zhao Lingling’s eyes flared with anger as she stood up from her chair, "If you won’t do it, I will!" Saying so, she took out a pair of handcuffs and walked towards An Yiqing.
Watching Zhao Lingling approach, An Yiqing’s face was filled with icy disdain. So this was the so-called public servant? She was quick to conclude An Yiqing’s guilt without understanding the facts.
