Chapter 243: Chapter 243: The Ancestor Comes to Set the Atmosphere

"Officer, what’s the meaning of this, bringing a young girl here to trick me? I’ve never seen her before."

Shi Dahai leaned back in his chair, speaking nonchalantly.

"You believe what this little girl says?"

Song Taishan’s face darkened, "Shi Dahai, adjust your attitude! She’s an eyewitness; she saw you drive your car and deliberately hit Jiang Hongtao. She was the one who called the police. Do you still deny it?"

Shi Dahai’s heart skipped a beat, and involuntarily he took a second look at Jiangli.

No matter how he looked, she was unfamiliar.

Convinced he had absolutely never seen Jiangli before, Shi Dahai relaxed again.

But this time, before he could speak, Jiangli walked straight up to him.

Shi Dahai looked up at her.

Jiangli, expressionless, began, "On the evening of July 13th, it was raining. On the eastern section of Linnan Road, it was you driving the car that crashed directly into Jiang Hongtao. You didn’t just hit him; you also took something from his car. Am I wrong?"

Shi Dahai’s face turned pale, his fists clenched tightly, stirring the silver bracelet on his wrist, causing it to tinkle. His gaze suddenly turned fierce and threatening as he whispered harshly, "Little girl, better not talk nonsense. Are you sure you saw all this with your own eyes?"

"Of course not."

Jiangli didn’t even need to think about it.

Song Taishan: "..."

What’s going on?

Is the Abbot playing him?

Shi Dahai was stunned for a second, then turned to look at Song Taishan, who was completely baffled, and began to laugh wildly.

"Look here, Officer, did you hear that? The little sister personally admitted she didn’t see me. I think everything she said earlier was a lie. Now you should let me go, right?"

Song Taishan was a bit slow to react.

What happened to the plan they had before? Why this sudden change?

He walked forward quickly.

However, Jiangli, with her back to him, not even looking his way, stared straight into Shi Dahai’s eyes and spoke again.

"But, I know everything you did, crystal clear. The police might not know this, but you should be aware that I’m not lying. Aren’t you curious how I could know all this so clearly?"

"What... do you mean?" the wild look on Shi Dahai’s face suddenly froze, his emotions rising and falling dramatically.

Jiangli leaned forward slightly to meet his gaze, smiling subtly.

"Although I didn’t personally witness you hitting someone, Jiang Hongtao did."

"Jiang Hongtao..."

Shi Dahai’s heart trembled, he gritted his teeth, "He’s long dead, are you still trying to trick me?"

Jiangli blinked, "I haven’t tricked you, Uncle. When people die, they become ghosts; they don’t just vanish. He told me everything that happened. There were only you and him at the car accident, so if it wasn’t him who told me, who else could it be?"

Shi Dahai’s face turned pale, as if a chill breeze brushed past his ear. He shuddered violently but still didn’t confess, "You’re just spouting nonsense!"

He looked toward Song Taishan for help.

Anxiously, beyond normal.

"Are you police going to let a young girl spread these wild tales? Do you believe such talk?"

Song Taishan still hadn’t spoken.

Jiangli raised her finger to her lips, making a shushing gesture. She glanced at Shi Dahai’s face with a meaningful smile, "Uncle, don’t you feel like there’s an extra person here? Jiang Hongtao, he’s right here—"

Shi Dahai’s face turned ashen. He was about to tell Jiangli to get out.

But just as Jiangli finished speaking, a chilling sensation suddenly touched his arm.

As if a pair of hands made of ice were pressing down on him.

The color drained rapidly from Shi Dahai’s face.

Jiangli feigned a dramatic gasp, "Uncle, Jiang Hongtao is very unhappy that you won’t confess. Look, he’s standing right beside you, covered in blood, especially his face. You hit him several times, and now his eyeballs have popped out, nearly dangling onto your face—"
