Hearing this, Captain Li was utterly speechless. He directly presented his police ID to the shameless relatives in front of him and said, "Your current behavior is a crime. Please come with me."
Seeing the police ID, everyone in the room instinctively felt a jolt of panic, but it quickly vanished. One by one, they all became self-righteous. The old woman from before stepped forward, hands on her hips, and without a hint of fear said, "It's hard for an upright official to settle domestic disputes. This is our family matter. Comrade prosecutor, this doesn't seem to be within your jurisdiction."
Captain Li: "..."
Seeing Captain Li remain silent, another woman beside him thought of something and quickly moved closer to him, pointing to her injured area and speaking indignantly, "Comrade prosecutor, Mo Li just beat all of us. She's truly unfilial. You must do something about her!"
Captain Li: "..."
After a long moment of speechlessness, Captain Li frowned and said, "This isn't a matter of whether it's a domestic dispute or not; you've committed a crime. Also, prosecutors of the living cannot manage ghosts of the underworld. You must come with me now!"
The crowd was startled by Captain Li's voice and instinctively stood up. Even the old woman who tried to rely on her age was scared to her feet from the sofa.
In the end, the group followed Captain Li to the police station.
After learning the full story, the prosecutors were all astonished, unable to understand how such shameless people could exist.
Good heavens, when they had called earlier to have them come collect Mo Li's corpse, not a single one had shown up. Their various excuses were amazing. Now that the compensation money had come through, one by one, their affairs suddenly weren't so busy, their legs weren't crippled, and their eyes weren't blind. They immediately rushed over. If not for the fact that the sister's soul was still present, who knew how much that poor child would have been bullied...
Thinking this, the prosecutors looked at the group with peculiar gazes.
...
Finally, with the police's assistance, a resolution was reached. If these people wanted the compensation money, they had to take care of Mo Linyu until he came of age and also support him through university...
Upon hearing this news, the expressions on the relatives' faces fell at a visible speed. "What? We still have to support him through school? Our own children never went to university, and you want us to support him? What are you prosecutors doing?"
"Exactly, just giving him enough food to not starve is enough, right? Why do we have to support him through school? Do you really think we're easy marks to be fleeced? We won't do thankless work," the speaking woman's eyes rolled, and she suddenly thought of something, a smile almost reaching the heavens. She crossed her legs and said, "At worst, we won't take the compensation money. We'll borrow it, okay?" It was their business whether they repaid it or not later, and she figured these prosecutors couldn't interfere too much.
"Oh? I'm sorry, that compensation money belongs to me, and I'm not lending it to you," Ming Li said from the side, rolling her eyes and speaking faintly.
Hearing this, the relatives became displeased. They pointed at Ming Li, one more excited than the other, and said, "You dead girl, you're already dead, why are you still bothering with so much? You have to lend the money, whether you want to or not!"
"Heh heh..."
Ming Li let out a cold laugh and said expressionlessly, "Then I'll beat you every time you come, until you're beaten to death."
Saying this, she smashed the table beside her with her palm.
Everyone: "..."
Captain Li: "...Don't destroy public property, you'll have to pay for it."
