"You guys… why did you stop? Hurry up and go!"
Looking at Xiang Ye and the others suddenly stopping, the man who came to report the news hesitated and said.
"No rush. I actually want to see if in today's law-abiding society, who still dares to rob and hurt people openly in broad daylight."
Hearing this, Huang Kai waved his hand and then said carelessly.
Hearing Huang Kai's words, the man hesitated and looked at him, then bit his lip and turned to run back the way he came.
Watching his actions, the people here couldn't help but laugh.
"Xiang Ye, what is this guy doing? Running back and forth!"
"This guy is obviously the reservoir owner's accomplice. He ran over to say that the owner sent people to beat us, trying to scare us away. Then, not only would we lose the fish and money, even our fishing gear would probably end up in his hands. I have to say, this reservoir owner is quite clever!"
At first, Xiang Ye didn't really understand what these people were doing, but now his intelligence was as high as 40. Not only did he learn things very quickly and had a strong memory, but most importantly, with just a little thought, he understood what the owner was trying to do.
Violent resistance to the law? Maybe in some mountain villages that still exist, but Qingshan Village is only a little over a hundred kilometers from the provincial capital. This is not some poor remote place.
If this reservoir owner really was so bold as to gather people in Qingshan Village to violently resist the law, then Xiang Ye would respect him as a real man.
But obviously, although 40 intelligence points are four times higher than ordinary people, it is not enough to be completely foolproof.
Before the police arrived, the reservoir owner really did bring a dozen or so people here. Originally, Xiang Ye and the others really thought this guy was prepared to throw caution to the wind and break the law, but when these people approached, they were stunned.
Because all the people standing behind the reservoir owner were old men and women. At least the youngest was over sixty years old, and many were even seventy or eighty.
Each one had gray hair and wore simple clothes, standing behind the reservoir owner.
With this lineup, a fight? Xiang Ye and the others were even afraid that if the wind blew a little harder, they might fall to the ground. This reservoir owner was not trying to provoke a fight, right?
And in Xiang Ye and the others' gaze, when these old people arrived at the reservoir, they did not come down to fight, but instead directly blocked the middle of the road.
Just as Xiang Ye and the others were a bit puzzled about what they wanted to do, suddenly a police siren sounded, and a police car came driving up from the mountain below.
Because the group of old people blocked the way, the police car had to stop there.
When the two police officers in the car got out, these elderly men and women began their tactic.
"Police, you can't ignore this. You must stand up for the people!"
"Ding Lao Wu, you're a policeman now. You must work for the welfare of our place!"
"Little Ding, don't you remember? I held you when you were little!"
"Officer Zhao, you can't listen to these outsiders and bully local people!"
"Little Ding, you're really brave now, you actually dare to come here!"
"Help! There is no justice left! We can't live like this!"
With the sudden outburst of voices from these ten or so elderly people, not only were the two police officers stunned, but so were Xiang Ye and his friends. They really never thought that there was such a tactic.
It goes without saying that since Zheng Jianping called the police, the officers sent would naturally be the closest ones, either from Qingshan Village or a nearby town. They must have connections with the locals. This was clearly a plan to use family and friends to get the police on their side.
"Damn? This reservoir owner is talented, actually has such a trick?"
Watching this scene, even Xiang Ye was a little stunned, then looked at the equally stunned Huang Kai, Liu Guangqing, Zheng Jianping, and Qi Hongbo, seeing what they would say.
"What do we do now?" Ai Bai also interrupted from the side.
"Let's go up and take a look! Bring our stuff, including the fish!"
Seeing the increasing noise above, Xiang Ye's eyes turned, suddenly he took out his phone and started recording, while picking up his stuff and heading up. Seeing Xiang Ye say this, Huang Kai and the others who clearly had no other way could only follow.
Soon, Xiang Ye and the others reached the top of the dam. As soon as they appeared, the two police officers trapped in the crowd also looked over immediately.
"Are you the ones who called the police?"
"Yes, we are. The reservoir owner took the money we paid for fishing. Since we caught quite a few fish, he is trying to refuse us taking the fish and won't return our money." Xiang Ye said directly to the police.
The police looked at the phone Xiang Ye held high, knowing that if they didn't handle this well, it would be troublesome. If they treated the matter unfairly and it was exposed, they wouldn't have a good outcome.
So, at this moment, the two officers had to squeeze out from the elderly crowd and came to the reservoir owner.
"Is what they said true?" The police asked the reservoir owner. Hearing the police ask this and seeing Xiang Ye's recording, the reservoir owner could only grit his teeth and stubbornly refuse.
"No, it's false. They sneaked in to fish." As the owner shouted, the elderly people cheered even louder, and at this time Zheng Jianping also took out his phone.
"I have the transfer records here. There are six of us. In the first hour, we transferred 1,200 yuan, noted as fishing fee. The second hour, another 1,200 yuan."
"What do you have to say about this?" Seeing the two transfer records on Zheng Jianping's phone, the police asked the reservoir owner.
"That's just from one person. Here I charge 1,200 yuan per hour for fishing!"
Hearing the police speak, the reservoir owner was still stubborn. Listening to him, Xiang Ye and the others couldn't help but laugh. He really was shameless!
"It clearly says 200 yuan per hour here. Who are you trying to fool? Sir, leave your phone number, then you can go. You come with us to the police station!"
This time, Xiang Ye and the others didn't need to say anything more. The police had already spoken first, directly telling the reservoir owner.
Hearing that even with ten or so old people, the police still wanted to take him away, the reservoir owner started to panic…
