Chapter 237 Zhou Zheng Suddenly Injures People
Everyone started whispering.

"So he was the thief."

"Look at his shifty eyes, he's obviously no good."

"Oh, I've seen him on the train many times. I wonder if my things have been stolen?"

"What a despicable thief, even stealing a little girl's watch."

……

The whispers of those around him reached Zhou Zheng's ears.

Zhou Zheng's face turned pale, and his hand, which was trying to pick up the money, began to tremble.

What thieves fear most is not stealing, but the consequences of being discovered.

Moreover, in this era, the punishment for thieves is very strict.

However, those who can become thieves are always quick-witted.

In a flash, Zhou Zheng had come up with a solution.

He forced himself to remain calm, picked up the money and watch from the ground, and angrily berated everyone.

"Who are you calling a thief? What proof do you have? This bracelet is clearly something I bought for my wife in Haishi."

Zhou Zheng looked very serious and spoke with great logic and reason, but he lacked any substantial evidence.

Seeing that Zhou Zheng refused to admit it, Su Nuannuan rolled her eyes in exasperation.

It has to be said, this thief has a really strong heart; even after the stolen goods had fallen to the ground, he still refused to admit it.

Many people were taken aback by Zhou Zheng's words.

However, Fang Yongjie, who was standing closer, saw the panic in Zhou Zheng's eyes and the guilty look on his face.

Fang Yongjie did not believe Zhou Zheng just because of his words.

Instead, his eyes were like knives, fixed intently on Zhou Zhengdao.

"Comrade, could you take out your watch and let me take a look?"

Zhou Zheng didn't know how the watch ended up in his pocket. But once something was in his possession, there was no reason to take it out.

Moreover, in this situation, things would be even worse if the watch didn't belong to him.

Zhou Zheng had already made up his mind to insist that the watch was his.

However, Zhou Zheng was still uneasy. He was worried that there were special markings on the watch and dared not show it to Fang Yongjie.

So Zhou Zheng looked at Fang Yongjie warily and said.

"What are you doing? Aren't you supposed to serve the people? Why are you eyeing the people's things?"

Zhou Zheng's expression seemed to say that Fang Yongjie was trying to deceive the people.

Su Nuannuan was so angry at Zhou Zheng's words that she laughed.

Fang Yongjie was so angry that his face turned red, and he looked like he had been insulted.

Seeing this, Su Nuannuan knew that an upright person like Fang Yongjie couldn't handle Zhou Zheng, this cunning and wicked fellow.

Su Nuannuan stopped hiding herself.

He slammed his hand on the table and stood up.

Su Nuannuan said angrily.

"You shameless thief! You stole my watch! I only lost the watch, but the money you dropped, probably over a hundred, must have been stolen from someone else too!"

Su Nuannuan's words sounded somewhat unreasonable. However, upon closer examination, they made some sense.

Su Nuannuan's loud slamming of the table, coupled with her deliberately raised voice, initially drew only onlookers from a few nearby rows. Soon, it attracted a large crowd.

In this era when entertainment was underdeveloped, watching excitement was a hobby ingrained in the Chinese people.

As Zhou Zheng saw more and more people gathering around him, he felt a little flustered, and his eyes began to dart around, clearly showing that he was extremely guilty.

Upon seeing this, Su Nuannuan pointed with her small hand and raised her voice.

"Look everyone, he's acting guilty!"

Everyone's gaze followed the direction Su Nuannuan was pointing and, sure enough, saw Zhou Zheng looking guilty.

The more nervous he became, the clearer Zhou Zheng's mind became. He quickly sorted out the matter. His gaze fixed intently on Su Nuannuan, who was facing him, and he spoke.

"It was you! You put the watch in my pocket and framed me!"

Upon seeing this, Su Nuannuan retorted in a voice even louder than Zhou Zheng's.

"No! You thief, you're still framing me. Comrade, you need to find someone to arrest him right now, he is the thief."

Su Nuannuan's voice was somewhat shrill, piercing people's hearts.

However, although Su Nuannuan acted rudely, everyone assumed it was because she had lost her watch.

Just then, the train slowly came to a stop, clearly indicating that it had arrived at the next station.

Zhou Zheng knew he couldn't explain himself even if he was in the right. Besides, he wasn't in the right at all.

His hands were never clean to begin with, and he couldn't withstand scrutiny.

Seeing that he couldn't fool them anymore, and with Fang Yongjie staring intently at him, Zhou Zheng felt he was doomed this time.

But just then, the train arrived at the next station.

When the car door opened, Zhou Zheng seemed to see a glimmer of hope.

Without hesitation, he charged straight toward the train door.

As he ran over, he took a kitchen knife out of his backpack, brandished it, and charged out.

Su Nuannuan was completely stunned by what she saw.

She hadn't expected that Zhou Zheng would carry a kitchen knife with him.

Zhou Zheng's actions were so sudden that many people didn't have time to react.

Those who were standing at the innermost part of the crowd watching the commotion were all injured by Zhou Zheng, who tried to rush out, with a kitchen knife.

Blood gushed from people's bodies, followed by terrified screams.

Fang Yongjie was the first to react. He quickly drew his sidearm and rushed over.

By this time, several people had already been slashed and injured.

Because the train door was still some distance away from Zhou Zheng, he didn't rush out. He disregarded everything, stabbing anyone who stood in his way.

Upon seeing this, Su Nuannuan clutched her heart.

Goodness, this is a tough character!

Many people were stunned and ran towards the back of the train.

Su Nuannuan frowned, looked at the crowded carriage, and sighed.

While everyone was running towards the back of the train, Su Nuannuan took the gauze and hemostatic medicine from her spatial storage and walked forward.

Su Nuannuan knew perfectly well that Zhou Zheng was eager to get off the train and would definitely not turn back.

Therefore, Su Nuannuan had no fear.

Approaching the injured person, Su Mianmian took out gauze and hemostatic medicine and began to perform simple bandaging.

Su Nuannuan dared to lend a helping hand because she wasn't worried about being suspected.

It's not surprising that she, a medical student, would have these things.

Su Nuannuan bandaged several people in succession, and sighed inwardly that fortunately the wounds were not deep and had not damaged any arteries.

Moreover, Su Nuannuan felt that these wounded soldiers were really lucky, as most of their wounds were concentrated on their arms and none of them were fatal.

The chaos on the train had already attracted the attention of the train conductor.

When Zhou Zheng injured someone, someone went to notify the train conductor.

At that time, train conductors were armed. Due to the underdeveloped communication and surveillance systems, some audacious individuals would hijack trains.

This is not a joke; it actually happened.

This is also why train conductors carry guns.

While Su Nuannuan was bandaging someone's wound, a dozen or so people dressed in blue overalls, led by a dark-faced uncle, rushed over.

Seeing this, Su Nuannuan knew that the rescue team had arrived.
