Chapter 343: Inhumanly Arrogant

Chapter 343: Chapter 343: Inhumanly Arrogant

Everyone from the First Sanatorium came out to watch the commotion.

The entire management staff of the sanatorium showed up as well.

The woman spoke to her subordinate in a low voice, "Don’t let the VIPs from the God of Wealth Hall, especially the Marquis, see what’s happening over here!"

The sanatorium had just been acquired by Da Xia’s top financial group, the God of Wealth Hall. The deal had brought hundreds of millions to the sanatorium, and no one wanted any trouble.

The subordinate lowered his voice. "They’re pulling up the surveillance footage!"

What?!

The woman grew tense. "Have they seen the footage? What exactly happened?"

The subordinate replied awkwardly, "It was, in fact, your son who snatched the other kid’s toy. He also pushed the girl, and just a moment ago, he hit her with a rock and injured her!"

The woman anxiously reached out and grabbed her subordinate by the collar. "Get this straight. Go and destroy all the surveillance footage immediately!"

It had started as a trivial matter, but now she couldn’t back down.

The only option was to use her power to bully them and bury the matter within the sanatorium’s walls.

The woman cleared her throat and took out her phone to call her father.

’At a critical time like this, I’m afraid I’ll need the old man to step in after all.’

Meanwhile, the Police Department had been dispatched.

It was the local precinct, so they arrived quickly.

Someone was injured, and a luxury toy worth 500,000 was involved. It might not sound like a huge deal, but if official procedures were followed, 500,000 was no small sum.

When the officers from the precinct entered, they didn’t even glance in Qin Tianxuan’s direction, instead walking straight up to the woman. "Dean Jin, should we follow official procedure for this, or shall we handle it privately?"

The precinct chief actually said this openly, in front of everyone at the scene.

Knowing she was in the wrong, the woman made a subtle gesture. "Director Huang, please inform the other party that I’m willing to settle this privately."

Then she raised her voice. "Have that little girl and her guardian come over and apologize to my son, and I’ll drop the matter!"

The precinct chief smiled instantly. "Easy enough. Just wait for my good news."

He led his men over, his expression instantly changing to one of stern intimidation as he approached.

"Who’s the guardian here?!" the precinct chief demanded, his tone drawn out and impatient.

Qin Tianxuan stepped forward. "I am."

"Alright, let me make this clear for you. Dean Jin is a person of high status and doesn’t care about some trinket worth a few hundred thousand. You should know when you’re well off. Just go over there and apologize."

Qin Tianxuan smiled faintly. "Have her entire family come over and kneel in apology. I’m in a good mood right now, so I’m willing to settle this privately."

The precinct chief was stunned, then his face twisted into a snarl. "I’m doing this for your own damn good, you get me? In a place like this, you want to pick a fight with the Jin Family? Are you out of your mind?! Do you really think you can win against them? A single hair off one of them is enough to crush you!"

Just then, a white-haired elder appeared with an air of authority. The surrounding onlookers all bowed respectfully.

He was the former Governor of the Capital City, Elder Jin. His proteges were now spread throughout the city. Even in retirement, he still secretly controlled the upper echelons of power in the Capital City!

Elder Jin had already learned the whole story over the phone. Upon arriving, he simply sat down, picked up a small teapot, and took a sip. "Let’s make a big deal into a small one, and a small one into nothing. I’m retired and don’t want to get involved. However! If anyone is deliberately looking for trouble, I, Jin, will absolutely not back down!"

As he spoke, he raised a hand and tapped the teapot. "Find out. Is that family trying to extort us, the Jin Family?"

Look at that. The man was retired, but he still carried himself as if he were in charge.

The precinct chief was now bowing and scraping obsequiously.

He turned around, his tone now impatient. "You see that? That’s Elder Jin! You’ve disturbed the man himself, and you’re still not going to offer your apologies?"

Qin Tianxuan remained motionless and gently raised his hand.

A Personal Guard silently handed over the surveillance data.

A laptop computer was brought over.

The surveillance footage, stored on a USB drive, was played immediately.

The entire incident was clear at a glance.

The little brat had not only snatched Sisi’s toy, but he had also pushed the ailing Sisi to the ground, tearing her dress. In the video, the detestable kid even threw her slippers away.

The part where he picked up a rock to hit her was even clearer.

Qin Tianxuan clapped his hands, and the video played on a loop.

He remained perfectly calm. "I always do things with fairness and impartiality. The video is right here. Now, you tell me how this should be handled."

The woman, the fat man, and Elder Jin all had ashen faces.

The precinct chief was also dumbfounded.

In the awkward atmosphere, Elder Jin stood up. "The computer and the USB drive. Bring them here. I’ll have a look."

The Night Emperor’s Guard sneered, "This is evidence. What do you mean, ’bring them here’?"

Elder Jin’s eyelids drooped, and his tone changed abruptly. "I said, bring them over!"

WHOOSH! WHOOSH!

Elder Jin’s personal bodyguards appeared. They were built like iron towers and followed by an entire squad of guards.

"The Elder said to bring them over!" one of the Iron Tower Guards sneered.

The precinct chief trembled, then turned and lunged viciously for the USB drive.

The Night Emperor’s Guard moved to intercept him.

"No need. Let them take it," Qin Tianxuan said, his tone still placid.

The laptop and USB drive were snatched away and delivered to the old man.

Elder Jin picked up the laptop and, with a CRASH, smashed it on the ground. Then, with a flick of his wrist, he threw the USB drive into the artificial lake opposite them.

He picked up his small teapot again and took a loud SLURP. "What surveillance footage? I didn’t see anything."

The area fell deathly silent.

On Qin Tianxuan’s side, his Personal Guards were stunned.

’They had conquered the Northern Domain; what kind of enemy hadn’t they seen? But they had truly never met anyone so shameless.’

Qin Tianxuan’s gaze swept across the crowd.

Not a single person stepped forward to speak a word of justice.

He waved his hand, signaling his Personal Guards to take Sisi and Song Mingzhu back.

Sisi was emotionally distressed and needed to rest. Mingzhu’s forehead injury was not minor and also needed to be treated.

As for what was happening here...

Heh. Qin Tianxuan was now getting serious.

And when he got serious, things were no longer a small matter.

Soon, only Qin Tianxuan remained.

Across from him stood Elder Jin and his family of powerful elites.

"Everyone here just saw the surveillance video," Qin Tianxuan began slowly. "The facts are clear, plain for all to see. So, is no one going to step forward and speak a word for me?"

A caregiver from the sanatorium had been wringing his hands, reminding himself not to be impulsive.

But his conscience couldn’t bear watching such a blatant distortion of the truth.

The caregiver timidly stepped forward. "I... I saw everything. It really was the little boy who snatched the toy. I can’t lie against my conscience..."

Before he could finish, Elder Jin’s guard rushed forward, grabbed him by the collar, and roared, "Do you fucking want to keep your job or not?"

The guard pointed viciously at the crowd. "Who here doesn’t have a higher status than you? None of them are spouting nonsense, but you, some broke wage-earner, want to play the hero? Fine. You want to be a hero? I’ll fucking help you become one!"

The Iron Tower Guard yanked the caregiver forward and raised his fist.

His massive fist carried a vicious threat.

The terrified caregiver squatted down, covering his head with his hands.

BAM!

Qin Tianxuan blocked the blow.
