Si Fuqing suppressed the violence in her eyes, pausing for a few seconds before extending her hand, looking pitiful like a small fox. âSister, my hand is swollen from the beating. It hurts so much.â
Yuejian instantly got into character. âYour hand mustnât get injured. Captain, these people are too much. They must be arrested!â
The corner of the investigatorâs mouth twitched upon hearing this.
The young man nodded slightly.
Initially expressionless, his gaze abruptly froze midway as he withdrew his sight.
His eyes fixated on a red mark on Yuejianâs palm, and his expression changed swiftly.
He scrutinized Yuejian sharply, estimating her dimensions.
âCaptain, weâve detained everyone,â an investigator reported. âThe injured have been sent to the hospital. Can we withdraw now?â
To his surprise, the young man showed no intention of wrapping up. Instead, he took a few steps forward and pulled out a notebook. âRoutine inquiry, whatâs your name?â
âWang Xiaomei,â Yuejian casually responded with a fake name, not forgetting to ask, âYouâre quite handsome. Can I get your number?â
Si Fuqing was silent.
Her third senior senior sister was indeed diligent, directly extracting information from people of Zero.
The man paused, his eyes tightly locking onto Yuejianâs face as he slowly uttered three words, âHuo Yanxing.â
âOh, from Great Xia,â Yuejian continued. âI also have Great Xia blood. If we trace back, we might be family. Captain, youâre quite good-looking.â
Huo Yanxing pressed his lips together, his lip line cold.
The woman who had slept with him and left a stack of money had not recognized him.
Very well.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âCaptain, my younger sister is injured. Her hand is precious,â Yuejian clasped her hands together. âShouldnât they compensate? And my younger sister is so upset, there should be a mental distress fee, right?â
Huo Yanxing was silent.
The Zero investigators also fell silent.
Did they really think they were blind and couldnât see who was actually injured?
Who had suffered mental distress?
âYes, it will be settled,â Huo Yanxing said indifferently. âLeave a contact number.â
Yuejian reported one of her many phone numbers. âCaptain, letâs have coffee sometime.â
Huo Yanxing glanced at her once more without saying a word before leading the investigators away.
âThe way he was dressed, he should be a senior member of Zero,â Yuejian said, holding the contact she had obtained. âNot a loss.â
Si Fuqing turned around. âThird senior sister, donât you think his look towards you was a bit odd?â
âWhatâs odd about it?â Yuejian crossed her arms. âMaybe the guy is a poker face, or he was scared by your fighting stance.â
âHe wasnât looking at me. Could it be you messed with him at some point?â Si Fuqingâs eyes were skeptical. âHe seemed very aggrieved.â
âImpossible. I was in disguise. I havenât used this face many times,â Yuejian rolled her eyes. âBesides, at most, I tease with words. I take my tasks seriously. I donât sell myself; Iâm still a maiden.â
Si Fuqing nodded.
That was true.
Her third senior sister was only flirtatious in words.
After all, she could not remember a single face.
A psychic evolutionist with face blindness seemed like a joke, but it happened.
âLetâs go. Looks like we wonât be drinking today,â Yuejian sighed. âLetâs wander around. Itâs a good thing Zero showed up; theyâll clean up this place.â
Meanwhile.
Huo Yanxing took the troublemaking middle-aged men away and sent them to Zeroâs interrogation room.
He silently looked at the phone number in his notebook, took a deep breath, put it back in his coat, and wearily rubbed his temples.
Not far away, a few investigators were gossiping.
âYou guys joined the team late, so you donât know how tragic our captainâs past was,â an investigator said. âA few years ago, he went undercover in a criminal organization. The organization was taken down, but due to some accidents, his reputation was ruined. And without a reputation, he also didnât get a wife.â
A rookie investigator suddenly realized and accurately captured the key point, âOh, I get it. The captain doesnât have a girlfriend.â
Everyone was single. Who was better off?
Huo Yanxing heard this and turned to glance at the rookie investigator, his eyes icy.
The rookie investigator instantly shut up, trembling. He felt like their captain was going to kill someone.
Huo Yanxing took out his phone, hesitated for a moment, then dialed a number.
After a few rings, it was picked up. âYanxing?â
âItâs me. Iâm back with the Zero team,â Huo Yanxing paused. âShiyan, I found the woman from back then.â
