The supermarket was always filled with people and more likely to have accidents. So the police came very soon. They saw Sophia hugging her stomach on the ground when they arrived.
"Are you all right? Did you call the police?" When the police arrived, they all thought that Sophia called the police. Amy stood aside, her leg being held by Sophia.
"No, I called the police. Sir, this woman hugged my leg and refused to let me go. I don't know what to do." Amy said to the police.
"You called the police? But..." The young policeman looked at Amy and blushed. This woman was really pretty. But the woman on the ground was clearly in great pain. What exactly was going on?
Now one older policeman, who just parked his car, walked over. He took a look and squatted down to ask Sophia if she needed any help.
"This woman hit me just now. My stomach hurts so much." Sophia lied shamelessly.
"Miss, she said that you hit her." The policeman said to Amy.
"If you buy her words, check the surveillance camera then. If the truth came out that I didn't hit her, I will sue her for slandering me and require an apology on the public media." Amy looked at Sophia. Sophia dared to trick her in such a low way. Sophia really overestimated herself. However, Sophia couldn't figure out when she offended others since she had just been in R City for a short period.
When Sophia heard about surveillance camera, she immediately raised her head to take a look. To her understanding, there was no surveillance camera around her. She had carefully observed the surroundings just now before doing such a thing.
"Okay. If you didn't hit me, I'll apologize to you. If you hit me, I'll call a reporter and a lawyer. You have to give me an explanation." Sophia insisted on her version of the story. She just confirmed again that there was no surveillance camera.
This was a conflict between the two women. The police were in a bit of a dilemma. They had no other way to tell who was right and who was wrong.
"This is the only way. Take both of them away and have the owner of the supermarket bring the surveillance tapes to the police station. Let's find out what happened first." The older policeman gave out a solution at last.
Then both Amy and Sophia were taken into the police car to the police station.
Sophia covered her stomach and looked at Amy with a confident look. 'Amy, you are the one asking for the surveillance tapes. But sometimes things would not go as you expected. There's no surveillance camera there. So there's no evidence to disprove that you hit me. I'll see how you explain later.'
The policeman called a doctor to check Sophia's wound. Sophia started to cry in severe pain in the police station, saying that her stomach was hurting badly and demanding to go to the hospital.
Therefore the police had to send Sophia to the hospital for examination. Amy called home and said that she would be back later.
The hospital examined Sophia for a long time without finding anything wrong. Since Sophia felt constant pain, they thought that she might suffer from soft tissue injury.
The doctor prescribed some medicine for Sophia but did not ask her to be hospitalized. There was no need.
In any case, Sophia had the hospital certificate of her soft tissue injury, wanting to pay Amy back.
When she came to the police station again, the surveillance tapes of the supermarket were also sent here.
