The Slag Gong Wants to Kill Me

Chapter 32

Officer D was silent. His face completely stern, mouth pursed into a line and his back ramrod straight like a firewood. 

“I’m not here to catch someone.” It took him a long time to say those short words, after which he got up, patted the dirt from his bum and left with the childhood sweetheart in tow.

His actions looked more like a warning.

Several days after waking up, the film emperor came to see me. He bought me a custom flower basket as a gift. When he attempted to peel me some fruit, he cut himself. Fortunately, this was a hospital and the wound was disinfected and then bandaged to stop the flow of blood. 

The film emperor gritted his teeth in pain and inhaled a sharp breath. That act of his made me smile.

He touched his nose and said, “Are you feeling better now?” I shook my head and again showed an aggrieved expression. I told him in a small voice about the officer who came to look for me.

The film emperor smacked his thigh. The crease in his brow tightened and he appeared to be furious as he exclaimed, “That police officer was too much, ba! How dare he suspect that you would hurt your husband! It can be seen at a glance that the childhood sweetheart killed your husband. What were they playing at in locking the door, they got locked in and couldn’t get out…”

I didn’t respond, rather I looked down at the bed sheet.

He comforted me and patted my shoulder, “I said I would help you. I’ll check if that officer has any relations with the childhood sweetheart, also…”

I interrupted him, “Thank you.”

“Don’t mention it. That thanks…” He replied, “I also have something to settle with the childhood sweetheart. I was truly blind at that time.”

I really want to tell him that he was just a simple fool.

A few days later, I was discharged from the hospital and the film emperor helped me carry my luggage. At this moment, Officer D arrived. He was unusually hostile, wanting to ask me to go to the station, but he was stopped by the film emperor.

The film emperor cursed at Officer D for being so vicious, saying he didn’t investigate the childhood sweetheart and my husband’s relationship, and stubbornly doubted me, the confused and naïve wife. He also threatened him that he knew the relationship between Officer D and the childhood sweetheart.

The film emperor threatened to socially sanction the Officer D for being impartial under the eyes of law.

Officer D had a frantic expression for a few seconds before taking a deep breath and telling me, “You still need to go back with me to the station for the investigation.”

“The childhood sweetheart is finally in a right state of mind.” He stated to call our attention.
