Just as Ye Qing had guessed, that captain was indeed in cahoots with those scam artists. When he learned the girl was a journalist, he was immediately dumbfounded.
What does it mean to be a journalist? They wield the power of public media discourse. If this journalist were to go back and write a report about today's incident, his reputation throughout Eastern Province would be ruined, and he would meet an ugly end.
Ye Qing hadn't expected the girl to have such an identity, and knew the matter was essentially over.
As expected, the captain's face turned beet red as he waved his hands, "This... This matter is not within our jurisdiction. I'll contact the traffic police for you in a minute, just wait a moment..."
Having said that, without waiting for the girl to respond, the three officers scrambled away like homeless dogs, not even turning their heads back once.
