374 Witness

Xiao Sheng went forward and said to the two police officers apologetically, “I’m sorry, but things were a little urgent. I’ll treat the two of you to a meal as an apology later!”

The older policeman shook his head. “It’s fine. Let’s work on the case first.”

When Madam Sun saw that there were really police officers, she licked her dry lips nervously, and the veins on her temples throbbed.

When Yu Bing saw this, she smiled and went forward to greet them. “Hello, police officers. I’m the person in charge of the food factory, Yu Bing. I want to report that someone is spreading rumors about me sleeping around!”

Madam Sun panicked when she heard this. “I was just saying so casually. Isn’t everyone in the village like this? Other people also said that about me. Who would call the police because of this?”

Yu Bing smiled coldly and said, “So now, you’re admitting that you don’t have any evidence and were spreading rumors about me to everyone?”

Since the police were already here, Madam Sun naturally didn’t dare to admit it. Moreover, she immediately thought of the person who told her this news. “Someone else told me this. Otherwise, how would I know? I wasn’t the one who started the rumors.”

The young police officer asked, “Who told you?”

When Madam Sun looked over, she only saw a crowd. At this moment, she suddenly saw a figure walking out. She immediately raised her hand and pointed as she shouted, “It’s that woman without a single patch on her shirt! She told me these things!”

After everyone looked in the direction Madam Sun was pointing at, they saw Yu Yan squeezing her way out of the crowd.

“Yu Yan?”

Someone immediately shouted in surprise.

Yu Yan cursed Madam Sun for being incompetent and implicating her, but she still turned around and immediately retorted, “Don’t slander me. What did I tell you? Can anyone else testify?”

When the police arrived, everyone wanted to get rid of their own suspicion, so when Madam Sun heard Yu Yan deny it, she pointed at her family members behind her and said, “They are all witnesses. Don’t try to deny it!”

Seeing this, Yu Yan smiled and said, “These are all people from your village, so of course they’re on your side.”

Yu Bing didn’t expect Yu Yan to be involved in this matter. Now, she immediately understood why Madam Sun kept going against her. It turned out that there was a good-for-nothing military advisor behind the scenes.

After Yu Bing thought for a moment, she decided to help Madam Sun. “As far as I know, the confessions of people from the same village can be accepted, right?”

The old policeman replied, “It can be accepted, but the confession of a relative will be reconsidered. Just being from the same village is fine.”

Madam Sun trembled when she heard this. “You little b*tch, you still want to harm me? She told me those words. She’s the one who spread rumors and slandered me. If you want to arrest someone, arrest her!”

When Yu Yan heard this, she panicked. She was indeed the one who said it, so now, she could only think of a way to confirm those things. Otherwise, she would be arrested. “I was telling the truth to begin with. She did go on a business trip with different men and went for many days. For so many days, they did whatever they wanted and no one knows what they did. What right do you guys have to say that I started a rumor and lied? It might be true. Yu Bing is just complaining out of guilt!”

Yu Bing frowned as she said, “I don’t know why you hate me so much that you even ran to an outsider to spread rumors.”

After Yu Bing finished speaking, she turned around and smiled at everyone. Compared to the exasperated Yu Yan, she looked much calmer. “I, Yu Bing, have a clear conscience. Since someone suspects me, I’m not afraid of explaining.”

When Wen Qin saw the way Yu Bing looked at her, she took out the various bills she had specifically found in the accounting room and handed them over.

After Yu Bing took it, she took the receipt and explained the itinerary and time of her stay in each place. “This is the bus ticket for my work trip with my colleague and the accommodation receipt for the guesthouse. This is enough to prove my innocence!”

Everyone knew that unless there was a marriage certificate, the opposite sex had to stay in separate rooms. Moreover, there would be ward rounds at random times during this period. If they were caught, they would be sent to the police station. Therefore, no one dared to commit crimes in the guesthouse. Moreover, the dates of Yu Bing and her colleagues’ accommodation tickets were all the same.

This evidence proved that Yu Yan and Madam Sun were spreading rumors and slandering Yu Bing, but this matter could be serious or trivial depending on how they dealt with it. Just as Madam Sun had said, there were many rumors being spread in the village, but no one had reported it to the police. Therefore, this depended on the person who had spread the rumors.

Hence, the old policeman asked Yu Bing, “Miss Yu, do you want to negotiate in private or pursue this matter to the end?”
