Zhao Lingling kept calling her a murderer, and An Yiqing truly became enraged. She had seen her fair share of spoiled and willful individuals, but as a police officer, encountering someone so judgmental and dictatorial without asking for any facts first was truly a first! She had thought she was merely going through the motions at the police station today, yet she did not expect to come across such a brainless woman. It seemed there would be no easy resolution to today’s events!
——I am the little foodie dividing line——
While An Yiqing was engaged in a battle of words with Zhao Lingling in the police station, the whole of Xuandu City had turned upside down!
Some people deliberately kept the news under wraps, so it wasn’t until after An Yiqing entered the police station that word of Xiong Tian’s murder spread. This news shocked the entire martial arts community.
Who was Xiong Tian? He was the Family Head of the Canglang Sect, the second-biggest martial arts faction in Xuandu City! Although the Canglang Sect didn’t dominate the martial arts world of the Xiluo Continent like the Muyun Society, they were still a major local force in Xuandu, and all other powers had to give Xiong Tian some respect.
But today, Xiong Tian, the local snake, had died! And he had died in his own home!
Then, a second piece of news spread. The prime suspect in the murder of Xiong Tian was none other than An Yiqing! Moreover, she had already been taken away by the police in full view of the public, supposedly to assist in the investigation!
This news was even more shocking than the previous report of Xiong Tian’s death. Who was An Yiqing? Everyone in the circle knew that she was the woman of Gu Yelin, the third young master of the Gu Family! Setting aside whether the two of them would become a couple in the future or whether the Gu Family would accept a woman with no background or status, just considering Gu Yelin’s current affection for An Yiqing, it was clear that this matter was far from over!
Everyone in the circle was boiling with excitement! Those with cunning minds began to seek information from their contacts in the police force, trying to learn the developments of the case. Even smarter individuals were looking to see just how much Gu Yelin doted on An Yiqing through this incident!
Thus, everyone focused on the fact that An Yiqing was Gu Yelin’s woman. They overlooked the girl’s own abilities, which would ultimately leave everyone in awe!
"What?! Miss An has been arrested by the police?" Zhang Yuksheng stood up in shock from his chair, looking incredulously at Liao Jinglin standing before him.
"That’s the word all over Xuandu City. It seems Miss An is implicated in the death of the Canglang Sect Master Xiong Tian. Brother Zhang, what do we do now?" Liao Jinglin was also anxious. Though their young boss had outstanding abilities, she was, after all, just a nineteen-year-old girl. A police station was no place for her; full of thugs and ruffians, how could An Yiqing possibly fare well there!
Zhang Yuksheng didn’t answer and paced in place, frowning as he tried to think of a solution. However, his phone suddenly rang.
Who could be calling at this time? Zhang Yuksheng looked at the unfamiliar number on the screen and couldn’t help but wonder.
"Hello, this is Zhang Yuksheng."
"Manager Zhang, this is Qiu Yiping!" a slow voice came from the other end of the line.
"Minister Qiu? What can I do for you?" Zhang Yuksheng raised an eyebrow in surprise. This Qiu Yiping was a patient of Miss An, and he typically didn’t have much contact with him, so why was he calling now?
"Manager Zhang, I heard that Miss An has been arrested? Is that true?" Qiu Yiping got straight to the point.
"It’s true," Zhang Yuksheng thought for a moment then shared the truth with Qiu Yiping, "Right now, Xuandu City is abuzz with rumors that Miss An killed Xiong Tian of the Canglang Sect. It’s clear that someone is maliciously spreading rumors and causing trouble. I’m currently trying to find a way to get Miss An out of the police station."
