Chapter 115: A Little Cute
Xiao Luo followed Gu Qianlin back to the police station. After they finished with the inquisition and making a record, Xiao Luo stood up and bid her farewell.
“Xiao Luo, who are you exactly?” Gu Qianlin stared at Xiao Luo with her big eyes as she asked him the same question as Red Scorpion had.
Xiao Luo smiled then replied, “I’m a law-abiding citizen.”
“You know that’s not that I’m asking.”
With pursed lips, Gu Qianlin said solemnly, “According to the records of Fang Chongqiang and others, you were also present that day when Chu Yue was assaulted and the 17 Red Scorpion Mercenary Corps were killed. You did that, right?”
As soon as she said that, the cops nearby gaped at them with shocked faces. Did the 17 Red Scorpion Mercenary Corps really perish at this kid’s hands? How was such a thing possible? He looked ordinary, and his body was not even sculpted. How could he have possibly killed 17 monsters with specialized training?
“Nope!”
Xiao Luo made sure that his answer was clear-cut. He wasn’t obligated to confess everything.
“But you’re the prime suspect. You know Chu Yunxiong, Chongshan House’s boss. And, coincidently, you were there that day. I have my reasons to suspect that you’re the bodyguard whom Chu Yunxiong hired to protect Chu Yue and ensure her safety,” said Gu Qianlin.
Xiao Luo replied with a playful smile, “That’s all just speculation. You don’t have any actual proof. Besides, Miss. Gu, why must you find out who did it? Knowing that those mercenaries are dead should be enough, shouldn’t it?”
“It is my responsibility and obligation as a police officer. I have to get to the bottom of this.”
“So what if you get to the bottom of things and find out who did it? Do you intend to put him behind bars?” Xiao Luo asked, his tone tinged with coldness.
Gu Qianlin was slightly startled. Then, she replied loudly, “I would not send him to jail. The truth is all I seek.”
“The truth is that this suspect guy helped you clean up a group of mercenaries who came into our country illegally,” Xiao Luo said faintly then changed the topic. “Oh yeah, your convicts almost got my friend and me killed. My friend’s car is also trashed. Maybe you should be figuring out how much we compensation we will receive. I think that’s all from me. I still have things to do, so I’ll be going now.”
When he finished his sentence, he waved and left.
Gu Qianlin shouted to his back, “Xiao Luo! One day, I will find out who you really are.”
Xiao Luo didn’t look back.
As far as he was concerned, everything would be fine so long as the things he did lived up to his conscience. Why should he care what others thought of him, even if that person was a cop?
Outside the police station, Zhang Dashan was sitting in his car with his soul amiss. He had not recovered from the incident where Xiao Luo had shot Red Scorpion. Although his behavior was ruthless and aggressive, he had never killed anyone. His best pal had, however, pulled the trigger, killing someone who had been very much alive, right before his very own eyes. The scene of the bullet piercing Red Scorpion’s skull looped in his mind like a movie.
The car door opened. Xiao Luo snuck in and sat down in the front passenger seat.
Zhang Dashan looked at him without saying a single word. He had the sincere, honest look of a child.
