Chapter 86 - Destructive Weapon

Huo Tian also solved all the police’s doubts.

The program that was used to connect all the mechanical products I left in the workshop was written at the last minute. In order to ensure that the processes will run smoothly, I need to drive the van close to these machines to allow them to successfully receive the orders. The mechanical products I left in the workshop are harmless. They can only cause some minor problems for the kidnappers…

As she spoke, Huo Tian’s expression became a little depressed. She frowned and glanced at the police officer, saying unhappily, “It’s all my friends’ fault for insisting on giving me a criminal law book. I knew a lot of things that I couldn’t do after reading the criminal law book. That’s why I didn’t create destructive weapons. That’s also why I was so restrained in such a situation.”

The policeman who was taking her statement broke out into a cold sweat. “Aren’t those metal limbs on that robotic arm considered a destructive weapon?”

“Of course not. The three metal limbs were designed to make it easier for Mom to move the goods. They can change their shapes and as well as expand and shrink in length at will. Mom only needs to place the goods on the ground and they’ll be able to move them automatically. There’s no need for Mom to struggle to hang the goods on the hooks.”

The police were speechless. They even wanted to sigh and say that there was no need to use a sledgehammer to crack a nut. However, the police had professional ethics, so of course, they couldn’t say things that were similar to encouraging crime. In the end, the policemen wore solemn expressions and criticized Huo Tian’s dangerous thoughts.

“No matter what, making destructive weapons is illegal. You should thank your friends. They were the ones who prevented you from going astray.”

“I know,” Huo Tian sighed gloomily. “I thought I would be a hero who would save the world. I didn’t expect to be the target of their strict precautions…”

Save the world? The policemen shook their heads. They didn’t understand what children her age were thinking. To think that she had such a strange thought. However, saving the world was better than destroying the world. Thinking of this, the policemen didn’t say anything else.

After the police finished taking their statements and cleaning up the scene, this kidnapping case came to an end. The police had gentle attitudes toward the Ding Family and Liu Jun, who were the victims.

“There’s nothing much for now. We need to return to the police station to interrogate the criminal. If there are any special circumstances later, we will inform you in time. If you have any new discoveries, you must report them as well…”

Auntie Liu, who had been waiting outside, pounced on Liu Jun when she saw that things had ended. She raised her hand and slapped him hard on his back.

She cried as she hit him. “You brat, why are you so daring? You’re even throwing away your life for that so-called live-stream. I’ll just beat you to death as soon as possible, lest you end up courting death one day!”

Liu Jun had his arms wide open and wanted to throw himself into his mother’s arms, but now, he could only bend over and cover his head to avoid his mother’s beatings. He listened to Auntie Liu’s heart-wrenching cries and tears flowed down his cheeks.

“I’m sorry, Mom. I won’t dare to do it again. Mom, stop hitting me. I won’t be an Internet celebrity anymore. I’ll just work hard and have a stable job in the future. I won’t dream of becoming famous overnight and earning big money anymore.”

The police officers around them watched for a long while. When Auntie Liu ran out of energy, they went up to pull her away

Huo Tian even heard a policeman beside her muttering softly, “We should teach such impetuous young people a lesson. They only think of taking shortcuts. How many people can be famous online?”

The police left with the kidnappers. Huo Tian saw a mess in the tailor shop and the courtyard. She said to Ding Rong, “Mom, why don’t we find a place outside to rest for the night? The house is in a horrible mess.”

Ding Rong sat on the sofa. She was exhausted, but she shook her head. “There’s no need to go through so much trouble. The bedrooms are not damaged. We just need to clean up the courtyard briefly.”

Now, Ding Rong was more willing to stay in a place she was familiar with. This would bring her a greater sense of security. Huo Tian did not understand why Ding Rong insisted on staying in this small courtyard, but she would not refute her mother’s thoughts.

Not long after, Ding Chen, Si Huan, and Bi Ying, who had stayed behind in the company, also rushed back. Although they had already informed Ding Chen on the phone that they were safe, Ding Chen still quickly ran over and hugged them when he saw that his sister and niece were unharmed. He then started wailing.

Hence, Ding Rong, who had just escaped danger, still had to coax her brother, who was having an emotional breakdown. Even though she still had some lingering fear in her heart, she could not remember anything due to his tears.

The bodyguards that Si Huan had brought with him quickly helped the Ding Family clean up the tailor shop and the small courtyard. The walls and the ground of the small courtyard had been splashed with blood, but after the bodyguards cleaned them up, nothing could be seen anymore. However, the marks in people’s hearts could not be wiped away so easily.

At night, Huo Tian squeezed into Ding Rong’s bed and the two of them slept together.

Ding Rong stroked Huo Tian’s hair and back repeatedly. Under her gentle movements, the atmosphere gradually became gentle.
