By the time the police car arrived with its siren wailing, Wei Rong was still a bit dazed.
Which hero had been the one to report to the police for her?
The two thugs were handcuffed with their arms twisted behind their backs and shoved into the car, heads pressed down.
The rest of their group couldn’t run away either and were about to be taken away as well.
Chu Bai also updated Deng Tong on the situation, "The Scar Brother you mentioned went in too, I don’t know if you’ll have the chance to meet him."
Whether they would have the chance to meet depended on whether Deng Tong was just a thug collecting protection money or had more serious crimes under his belt.
In recent years, influenced by various gangster films, many idle youths prided themselves on being hooligans.
Some even made it a requirement that one had to commit a crime and provide proof of it to join their organization.
These reckless and law-ignorant people dared to commit any crime, giving the police headaches.
This time, they had the bad luck to run into Chu Bai.
Not only did they fail to gain any advantage, but they also got a beating and were about to have all their dirty business exposed.
Yue Qingqing whispered to Chu Bai, "That Ahui has blood on his hands, a little girl’s life."
Chu Bai immediately went over and whispered a few words to the leading officer.
The officer frowned and looked at Ahui with disgust in his eyes.
Red-hair shivered uncontrollably, a chill rising from the bottom of his heart.
Chu Bai didn’t ask how Yue Qingqing knew this.
After all, not prying into each other’s secrets was a basic rule of the Xuanmen.
Once the situation was resolved, Chu Bai was no longer wearing that cold expression, but instead became quite affable.
"I heard from Axi that Zhuancheng has a little genius, I didn’t expect to run into you just like that."
One moment as cold as ice and the next, as warm as spring rain, it would be tough for most people to deal with.
But Yue Qingqing could clearly differentiate the two personas and showed no confusion.
"Did you come here to investigate a case?"
Chu Bai broke into a smile, "Not really, if our department were busy day in and day out, the world would probably be in chaos by now. I was just traveling nearby when I heard from Axi and decided to come have a look. It’s just pure coincidence that I stumbled upon this."
Was it really just coincidence?
Appearing near Zhuancheng No. 1 Middle School on the first day of summer vacation.
Yue Qingqing didn’t say much else, just suggested a few spots in Zhuancheng to Chu Bai.
Especially emphasizing a few restaurants with excellent flavors and distinctive snacks.
Chu Bai responded to each one.
In the middle of the conversation, Chu Bai’s phone in her pocket rang.
She frowned and picked up the call expressionlessly.
On the other end was Cui You, furious.
"Chu Bai! How many times have I told you that you can only let the police handle these mundane cases, and you still resorted to vigilantism! Are you disregarding the department’s discipline?"
Chu Bai defended, "I didn’t use any Curse Technique!"
"You may not have used Curse Technique, but you’ve beaten someone up till they’re bloodied. Even if these people are guilty, they should be judged by the law. As cultivators, we too must follow the rules."
Chu Bai indifferently held the phone further away, "Hello? What are you saying... I can’t hear you clearly... Zhuancheng’s signal is bad."
"Don’t play dumb with me. If every cultivator judges criminals based on personal likes and dislikes, what’s the use of law then?
"Even if you have superhuman strength, you can’t represent justice; it’s just abuse of Ability," Cui You exclaimed frustratedly. "You! You’ve made me so mad, let your sister talk to me, why didn’t she stop you!"
Yue Qingqing saw Chu Bai’s face showing struggle, as if she wanted to say something but then her mouth clamped shut firmly.
The scene was somewhat eerie...
With a beep, it was the cold, younger sister who prevailed, hanging up the phone decisively.
