At that moment, they realized the gravity of their situation; tears and snot ran down their faces as they cried out, "Officers, we're innocent! We didn't do anything! Someone made us do this! You should arrest him instead!" After receiving a kick, they finally settled down, ceasing their panicked cries, From the crowd, a middle-aged man stepped forward, looking anxious.

I wanted to ask if he was hurt and thank him, but after calling his name, I couldn't utter another word.
His eyes were downcast, but when he looked up, I noticed they were red-timmed. "Thank goodness you're safe." Seeing his blood-stained clothes made my heart ache, yet I felt a surge of gratitude.
"Don't..." Ethan smiled at me, reaching to wipe away the tears on my face, but before he could say anything, he collapsed to the ground. "Ethan..."

At the entrance, the police chief was speaking with several officers. As I approached, I caught a snippet of conversation. "Investigate quickly and ensure efficiency." I peered inside but couldn't see anything, so I turned to the chief. "How's Ethan?" He looked atdeeply before shaking his head." "The two men were too rough and injured his intemal organs. The doctors are currently trying to save him." A buzzing sound filled my head, and my mind went blank. My nose tinged with sadness, and I felt my tears were threatening to spill again.
Noticing my distress, the chief kindly tried to reassure me. "Don't worry The surgery is being performed by the best doctors in Napel. He will be fine."
Catching sight of the marks on my wrist, he added, "We've brought those two in for questioning They were acting under orders. We will definitely find out who's behind this and get you the justice you deserve." Chapter 129
