The scene was eerily silent to the point where you could hear a pin drop.
Hong Dacai, Hong Daquan, and Hong Wentai turned deathly pale, unable to believe what was unfolding before their eyes. The faces of the Hong Family members looked worse than the next, resembling a household in mourning. The villagers gathered to watch were all in a state of shock, their faces a mix of astonishment and disbelief.
No one from the Hong Family or the villagers of Sweet Water Village could have anticipated Hong Daqi's downfall.
For the people of the Hong Family and the villagers of Sweet Water Village, it was like an earthquake.
Rustle! Rustle!
The terrified Hong Dacai, Hong Daquan, and Hong Wentai had yet to recover from their shock when they were surrounded.
"Hong Dacai, Hong Daquan, Hong Wentai, you are under arrest."
"Take them into custody."
The crowd encircling Hong Dacai, Hong Daquan, and Hong Wentai swarmed in, securing the three men.
