Xia Jie said that the delivery was not fake at all.
He was prepared to personally escort Mingxi to a nearby hotel to check in, as she definitely couldn't continue staying at the Huian Hotel where she had been.
Although Xia Jie had a gentle personality, he was still young and could become the deputy captain of the Special Criminal Bureau's First Squad, so he absolutely couldn't be a naive pushover.
Of course, he had to admit that having a good father was also one of the keys to his success.
But it was definitely just one!
Last night, his busy friend, who he hadn't seen in ages, inexplicably called.
When he subtly hinted that Xia Jie should pay attention to the Huian Hotel these past two days, Xia Jie keenly realized that someone was planning something.
As expected, the next day, the Huian Hotel was invaded by a group of wild Zhuzhu Yuan.
After interacting with Mingxi and understanding the incident, he was completely certain that this group of Zhuzhu Yuan, or rather, the people behind the Zhuzhu Yuan, were targeting Xiao Guniang Mingxi.
As far as he knew, Mingxi was his friend's star student.
For this student, his friend even spoke boldly in front of the big shots, claiming that Xiao Guniang could surpass Qi Shen from back then, which caused quite a stir.
Coupled with Mingxi's performance today.
Without a doubt, this master and disciple had long anticipated that something would happen today, which was why his friend had given him a heads-up in advance.
He was probably worried that his precious student couldn't handle it on her own, so he arranged for him to be a backup.
Xia Jie even suspected that the mysterious disappearance of that group of Zhuzhu Yuan was also related to Mingxi.
After all, a fainted Zhuzhu Yuan couldn't possibly use spatial transfer items.
However, these were all just his guesses, with no evidence to prove them.
He just didn't know ◈ Nоvеlіgһт ◈ (Continue reading) what Xiao Guniang did with those Zhuzhu Yuan.
Interrogation?
Or physical elimination?
It couldn't be to rob the true culprit behind the scenes, could it?
Just as Xia Jie was thinking this—
“Boss, bad news! The Police Training Center just received a report from the public that a family at Yunyin Longting, No. 23 Hanyang Road, was attacked by a large group of Zhuzhu Yuan! They want us to rush over to support them as soon as possible!”
A subordinate rushed over, the content of his shouts making Xia Jie almost want to hit his head on the ground!
His eyelid twitched violently.
No way? No way? Could he have actually guessed correctly?
Yunyin Longting, No. 23 Hanyang Road?
Isn't that the largest gathering place for wealthy and powerful families in Tianhe City?
His father seemed to have also bought him a temporary base there.
He just never lived in it.
However, he vaguely remembered that a certain family in Yunyin Longting was holding a... today.
So, it couldn't be that family, could it?
Xia Jie's eyes widened, and he quickly asked his subordinate, “Which family is it?”
“The Yang family, who are holding an appraisal meeting today.”
Xia Jie almost couldn't help but exclaim, “Good heavens!”
It really was the Yang family!
So, if his previous deduction was correct, the true culprit behind the Zhuzhu Yuan attack on the Huian Hotel was very likely someone from the Yang family.
Now, they were being paid back in their own coin.
Xia Jie unconsciously looked at the young girl beside him, who had a look of surprise and suspicion, her expression management impeccable.
Noticing the young man's strange gaze, Mingxi blinked and looked back.
“Captain Xia, it seems you have something urgent to attend to, so I won't trouble you to escort me. I can go back by myself.”
As Mingxi spoke, she summoned Lan Yue.
Actually, she was a little surprised by the timing of the Yang family incident.
According to her plan, the Zhuzhu Yuan would officially act at 7:30 PM, but it was almost 9:00 PM now, and the Special Criminal Bureau had only just received the report.
One should know that she wasn't that rich, nor did she have the ability to set up signal shield around the Yang family's estate.
So, under normal circumstances, the Special Criminal Bureau should have been notified the moment the Zhuzhu Yuan rioted.
Why was it delayed for an hour?
Mingxi, however, didn't know.
The Yang family's internal structure was rotten, full of hidden evils, but they still had their merits.
That is, they were very self-aware, knowing that their own family was not a good thing.
To prevent their servants from having different intentions and betraying them, or from being invaded and having listening devices installed in every corner by others (Transcendent creatures), the Yang family estate had always activated a shielding item.
Only the corresponding item carried by the family head could deactivate the shield.
So, the question arises, why didn't Yang Zhenhua deactivate the shield?
He had a guilty conscience.
Because the Zhuzhu Yuan group, fundamentally speaking, was raised by him, Yang.
If the Special Criminal Bureau intervened in the investigation, he had no confidence that this fire wouldn't burn him!
He dared not gamble.
Therefore, the Yang family being robbed by the Zhuzhu Yuan was only reported to the Special Criminal Bureau by a guest at tonight's appraisal meeting an hour after the incident.
Mingxi didn't know that the Yang family had shot themselves in the foot!
She happily bade farewell to the Tianhe City Special Criminal Bureau and checked into the six-star Mido Specialty Hotel not far away.
Not short on money, she booked an apartment-style suite.
Not long after, the figure of a Transcendent creature slowly appeared.
Zhuzhu Yuan.
The leader of that group of Zhuzhu Yuan.
Its appearance at this time was a bit miserable; its fur had almost all fallen off, one eye was blind, and its claws were bloody...
Minor injuries.
Something that Holy Healing could solve.
Before, it was beaten even worse by Little Silver Flower and Lan Yue, almost dying.
Yet it still bounced back and killed its former employer, didn't it?
However, this time Mingxi did not let Little Silver Flower heal it.
She would not feel an ounce of pity for this Zhuzhu Yuan just because it was now indirectly under her control.
Put down the butcher knife and become a Buddha immediately.
To her, that was a fallacy!
A butcher is a butcher.
If sudden repentance could lead to forgiveness, then the cost of crime would be too low!
It's even more absurd than a mentally ill person committing a crime and being innocent!
But I'm getting off-topic again.
Facing the miserable state of Zhuzhu Yuan, Mingxi felt nothing inside, and even quite wanted to give it another stab.
Because at the Huian Hotel, all the skills of this Zhuzhu Yuan were directed at her.
Ruthless and cruel.
It wanted to kill her!
Someone wanted to kill her, so it was okay for her to stab the other party, right?
At this moment, the vertical lines on Mingxi's brow reappeared, and while her brain throbbed, she felt a familiar fluctuation.
The next second, that Zhuzhu Yuan shrieked and fell to the ground.
A large hole had opened in its chest, front to back, as if it had been hit by a cannonball.
Mingxi raised an eyebrow; this Zhuzhu Yuan definitely wouldn't survive.
Its cause of death should be that its hidden space was forcibly stripped away by itself.
A ball of light appeared before Mingxi's eyes, and then the ball of light began to grow larger and larger.
“Pop!” frёewebηovel.cѳm
A sound similar to a bursting bubble was heard.
Then equipment started dropping.
The large light ball then transformed into smaller light balls of varying sizes, each encasing a different item. freewebnøvel.com
They slowly fell to the ground, the light balls shattered, and the items inside were exposed to the air.
Soon, they piled up into a small mountain at least four or five meters high.
Almost touching the ceiling!
“Luo Luo.”
“Ling Ling.”
Little Silver Flower and Lan Yue curiously walked around the small mound, and when they saw items that interested them, they would reach out their claws and paw at them a few times.
