Shocking! The young educated youth had just arrived and was already clashing with spies.

Chapter 687 Damn it, this bastard actually turned the tables on me!

Chu Yunting was furious. What was all this nonsense? Just as he was about to stand up and scare them away so they wouldn't delay his business, the old lady, who was convinced he had rabies, started grumbling and complaining again.

"It's all the fault of that family in front. They're so inconsiderate of others. They had to drive such a big car into this narrow alley, blocking the road completely. Otherwise, we wouldn't have run into this bad luck on this side!"

Almost immediately, a thought flashed through Chu Yunting's mind: Could that be the place he was looking for?

Chu Yunting straightened up instantly, overjoyed. He grinned at the woman who had given him the information, but before he could even express his gratitude, the two women stared in horror, then yelled and dragged each other away.

"Oh my god, help me!"

"It has rabies!"

Chu Yunting: ...

He was furious at being mistaken for a rabid dog repeatedly, and barked fiercely at the two people who were running away.

The two middle-aged women were now running as fast as if they were being chased by ghosts.

Chu Yunting angrily rubbed his face twice, "Hmph, scared you to death!"

After saying that, he ran in the direction the two older women had come from.

When he found a parking spot, he saw four people loading a coffin onto a truck. Just as the two older women had said, the truck was blocking the alley because of its width.

The four men quickly pushed the coffin into the carriage, then deftly removed the ramps used for loading and unloading, jumped onto the vehicle, and slammed the doors shut.

From a distance, Chu Yunting only heard words like "Alright, let's go now."

He didn't see the man who had opened the oil can, and for a moment he really couldn't be sure if this group of people were the ones he was looking for, but he couldn't let go of any potential suspects, so he frowned deeply.

Seeing that the car had already started and there was no time to delay any longer, Chu Yunting steeled his heart, knowing that when the time came, he had no choice but to be shameless.

I'm not afraid of losing face, I'm afraid of the "what if" scenario. What if Huo Baohua is in that coffin? Wouldn't that mean he let him go?

He often acted innocent, but throwing a tantrum was a first for him. Without even having time to prepare himself, Chu Yunting impulsively rushed out.

The alley was narrow, and the truck wasn't going fast. Suddenly, someone ran out from around the bend ahead and rushed straight at them. Out of instinct, the driver slammed on the brakes, and Chu Yunting fell spectacularly less than a meter from the front of the truck.

"Ah! Help!"

After falling down, it peeked around again, but it still wasn't close enough. While rolling on the ground and howling in pain, it slid under the car again.

"Ouch, this hurts! Is this some kind of residential alleyway? How can you drive a car in like this?"

"Oh my god, my back hurts so much, and my hip joint hurts too. Oh my god, did I hit a bone?"

Chu Yunting wasn't a brainless person; he wouldn't assume there were internal injuries if there weren't any visible scratches or scrapes on his body.

Because of the sudden braking, the people in the carriage were thrown into a pile. The problem was that there was a coffin, which was heavy and had the added force of inertia. The four people were hit hard without any resistance.

Instantly, besides Chu Yunting's howling outside, screams also erupted from inside the truck.

An uninformed person could imagine a horrific accident scene just by hearing the noise.

In fact, neither side shed a single drop of blood from beginning to end.

Soon, everyone in the alley, regardless of age or gender, came out as soon as they heard the noise.

The driver frowned deeply, slammed his hand on the partition between the front of the vehicle and the passenger compartment a few times, telling the people inside to stay put if something happened, and then opened the door and jumped out.

Chu Yunting looked at him with a mask of pain on his face and realized that this person was still not the man who took Huo Baohua away. He began to have some doubts in his heart—damn it, could it be that I made a mistake?

The driver stopped after a few steps, staring at Chu Yunting with a displeased expression. "What's wrong with you, comrade? You haven't even touched him yet, and you're already making a scene, trying to stage an accident?"

As the driver, how could he not know whether he hit anyone or not?

Chu Yunting seemed to have been greatly insulted, and angrily pointed at him and cursed, "Bullshit! You didn't hit me, but you scared me. Do you know how badly I fell while trying to avoid your car?"

Ouch, my lower back! Ouch, my hip joint! It really hurts!

driver:……

He suppressed his anger and yelled, "You fell down yourself, so you're blaming me? You're recklessly driving around without looking where you're going, so you're responsible too! Don't try to scam me!"

The driver's intention was to scare Chu Yunting into behaving himself, but before he could finish speaking, the man on the ground started calling out to the onlookers.

"Hey, could you please call the police for me? If we're going to share the responsibility, we need a middleman to witness it. I'm an honest and upright person, and I absolutely won't allow myself to be slandered!"

The driver's face immediately darkened.

The onlookers were all residents of the area. To be honest, they were not familiar with either party involved in the accident; in fact, they were complete strangers.

But what does it matter?

The enthusiasm of Chinese people can be seen in all aspects, especially in helping a vulnerable group report to the police, which makes it all the more important for them to do so.

At this moment, the middle-aged man who had been chosen by Chu Yunting felt a surge of responsibility as he was being looked at by Chu Yunting with an air of entrustment. He straightened his back and stepped forward.

He assured me confidently, "Don't worry, comrade, I'll go right away and be back soon. Please take care of yourself!"

Chu Yunting: Brother, you're quite the actor.

"no!"

The driver interrupted the middle-aged man urgently, preventing him from leaving, and said in a calm voice, "I have urgent business here. If you call the police, it will take even longer. I can't wait!"

The burly man looked at Chu Yunting, whose eyes darted around, his face full of displeasure. "Not only am I injured, but I'm also being falsely accused of staging an accident. When people are wronged and want to go to the police, you stop them. So tell me, what should we do?"

Chu Yunting's main purpose in asking someone to call the police was to test the driver. If the driver was innocent, he would definitely confront him, and there would be no need to continue the charade. It was better to cut his losses and quickly find Huo Baohua again.

But since the driver was unwilling to contact the police, Chu Yunting immediately had other plans in mind.

The driver was furious and looked very unhappy, so he decided to pay up to avoid further trouble.

"Name your price, and we'll settle this privately!"

Chu Yunting shook his head with a straight face, "No, that would just confirm my crime of staged accident! I am a socialist successor who keeps the red quotations in my heart and is devoted to the red flag. I will not accept such a charge!"

The driver's forehead veins throbbed as he listened, and he clenched his fists tightly. "Damn it, where did this idiot come from!"

In truth, Chu Yunting was also extremely ashamed at this moment, but he had no choice but to do it when the time came.

Even though he was still lying crookedly on the ground, he stubbornly and humiliatingly confronted the driver who was about to explode with anger, profoundly demonstrating to everyone that he was a good person.

"Ha, I think you're doing this on purpose, deliberately making things difficult for me. To tell you the truth, my elders passed away back in our hometown, and we urgently need a coffin prepared early for their burial. Even if I was wrong to drive the car in today, it's you who are being unreasonable and disruptive, delaying my elders' funeral arrangements. You are the one who should be punished and condemned!"

The driver then turned to the onlookers, especially the burly man, and began to complain with a mournful face, “My old man’s last wish before he passed away was to use the coffin he had prepared. Everyone says that the dead should be respected, so can’t I even pay money to settle this trouble?”

...The onlookers felt sympathy upon hearing this, and their gazes toward Chu Yunting inevitably carried a hint of condemnation.

"Comrade, bad people who hold funerals will be punished by heaven. Since they are willing to give money, you should move aside."

"Yes, didn't you just say that you are a socialist successor who is devoted to the red flag? You can't do something immoral without awareness."

Damn...

Chu Yunting was furious; damn it, this bastard had actually turned the tables on him.
