CHAPTER 334: CHAPTER 276 QI YAN THINKS THIS GIRL IS A TOUGH CHARACTER

"File a complaint? Can’t the victim here hit back at the mastermind?" Rong Yan sneered, clearly fearless since she had dared to make a move.

"Using such a sinister method to harm me, believe it or not, I will cram that evidence down your throats right now?"

Xu Ke: ...

Ming Liping: ...

These two women had seen her pull such a stunt before and were utterly convinced she wasn’t just talking big.

Thus, the two women who were released unconsciously moved closer to Qi Yan beside them.

He was their sense of security.

Who knew what this woman would do next?

Rong Yan, seeing the fear in their eyes, curled her lips in mockery and then turned her head to Qi Yan, "Qi Public Security, I just want to ask one thing, with conclusive evidence, why can these two be released?"

Before Qi Yan could reply, an emboldened Ming Liping rushed to answer, "I am innocent... it wasn’t me... where is the conclusive evidence? Don’t talk nonsense..."

Xu Ke of course wanted to defend herself too, "I didn’t know anything either..."

"Two people with malicious intentions, sending things to harm others while pretending to be innocent," Rong Yan’s face was full of intense mockery.

She didn’t want to waste time arguing with these two anymore, so she turned her head back to Qi Yan, her words still sharp, "Qi Public Security, you still haven’t answered my previous question. Even the physical evidence can disappear within the station... and they can still walk out unscathed, are you implying their family has more power than the station?"

Qi Yan: ...

It was his first time encountering such a formidable girl.

It made him break out in a sweat.

"Comrade Rong Yan, about this... actually, if you hadn’t brought them here, we were just about to capture them ourselves. We let them go earlier due to lack of solid evidence, but now that we have it, we are very grateful for your help, and the station expresses our thanks."

He finally spoke up.

Xu Ke and Ming Liping were shocked upon hearing Qi Yan’s words.

Especially Ming Liping, who was furiously indignant, "Qi Yan, what do you mean? What counts as definitive evidence? I told you, I didn’t do it, I had no idea."

This time, Qi Yan wasn’t polite to her, directly turning to her, "Did you give her the potted plant?"

"It was me who gave it... but..."

Qi Yan didn’t give her a chance to continue, "That’s enough for now, now let me ask, do you know her?" He pointed at Rong Yan. "Do you have a relationship with her, or with her man, Qin Ye? Think carefully before you answer."

Ming Liping looked up and saw Rong Yan watching her, her eyes full of mockery.

Through gritted teeth, "I don’t know her... but I..."

Qi Yan cut her off mid-sentence again, "Since you don’t know her and have no dealings with her man Qin Ye, why would you give her a potted plant worth 500? The motive there is unclear. Don’t tell me it was for neighborhood friendship."

"This case has already attracted higher-ups’ attention, you can’t provide evidence to clear yourself, so, you cannot leave the police station. Xiao Wang, take her away."

Ming Liping, shocked, protested, "You can’t detain me, you don’t have the right."

Qi Yan looked at her emotionlessly, "I’m sorry to disappoint you, but I do have that right. The Ming Family’s previous guarantees are no longer valid. Xiao Wang, take her down. And you, don’t make a fuss here, or you’ll add to your charges."

Xiao Wang grabbed the resisting person and took her away.

Xu Ke watching the police handle Ming Liping so roughly, was utterly astounded.

And even more fearful.

If they dare to arrest Ming Liping, what about her?

Just as she had this thought, she saw Qi Yan looking at her, causing her heart to skip several beats.

"Xu Ke, did you buy the potted plant? And you personally handed it over to Ming Liping, right?"

"... Yes." Xu Ke was so nervous she nearly cried, thinking if she had known Ming Liping couldn’t handle even this little thing, she wouldn’t have gotten involved at all.

"That’s good," Qi Yan’s expression was stern, "Xiao Song, take her away for interrogation."

"Wait, I really didn’t know... it was Ming Liping who asked me to find it, I just bought it..."

Rong Yan chuckled coldly, "When an avalanche happens, no single snowflake is innocent."

Xu Ke: ... Don’t think I’m uneducated and can’t understand that saying.

Qi Yan then turned his head to look at Rong Yan... her remark was interesting.

It was his first time hearing such a metaphor, but thinking about it... it seemed very apt.

He discovered for the first time, Qin Zhen’s sister-in-law was indeed a fascinating person.

Ferocious—sharp-tongued, high combat power, seemingly reckless but actually meticulous, and smart!

Without giving Xu Ke another chance to defend herself, "Whether you’re innocent or not, you know in your heart. Compared to Ming Liping, your motive for the crime is greater because you have a bigger conflict with Comrade Rong Yan."

"Aside from this case, you’re also connected to a human trafficking case from a few months ago, so now, you just need to cooperate with the investigation."

Xu Ke, hearing the words ’human trafficker’, her legs almost gave out, with a flash of terror... how could they possibly have found out?

It had been so long?

Then she forcibly calmed herself down, this must be a bluff.

Rong Yan coolly spoke, "Xu Ke, the folks at Gaonan Police Station are waiting for you!"

Xu Ke’s face drained of color, "...You, don’t talk nonsense... what Gaonan not Gaonan, I don’t even know what you’re talking about..."

Rong Yan’s lips curled, and her piercing gaze was oppressive.

"Right, that time, Gaonan Police Station even awarded me 300 yuan as a bonus! Without you, I wouldn’t have this unexpected income, without you, those traffickers’ hideout wouldn’t have been cleared out. Tell me, could the remaining traffickers who escaped be coming after you?"

"Have you felt like someone has been following you recently?"

At this, Xu Ke was genuinely terrified.

No wonder there always seemed to be someone following her.

Was it those people coming for her?

The thought made her legs completely give out, and she stumbled. If a table hadn’t been there to catch her, she probably would have fallen clumsily to the ground.

Rong Yan: ...

Her mental fortitude really was terrible, she was scared so easily with just a few words.

Looking up at Qi Yan, "I hope this time no one comes out due to having a bit of a family background."

Qi Yan: ...

You really are a force to be reckoned with, daring to say anything without a single inhibition, truly a formidable character.

"Xiao Song, take her away."
