I Really Didn’t Want to Increase My Favorability!

Chapter 124

It’s a bit past 7 p.m., normally a bustling time in the Linshui Dongcheng commercial district, but the streets now seem somewhat quiet.

Onlookers, who love excitement, notice that section C of the commercial area is completely cordoned off with police tape.

Four police cars and five or six ambulances are parked near a networking company, and people around the shops are being persuaded to leave.

Police and medical personnel are constantly coming and going, and many people are being gradually lifted into ambulances or police cars.

However, a teenager in school uniform sits calmly on the steps by the door, accompanied by a girl in black leather, and the two chat against the wall.

However, unlike ordinary people, both of them were covered in a lot of blood, as if they had just returned from the battlefield.

“I didn’t expect it to be Jia Qing! Otherwise, your operation might have really ended without danger.”

After listening to Qin Yunhe’s narration, he felt that the whole thing was too absurd.

He originally thought that the news of Qin Yunhe carrying the tiger had been seen, so she was recognized, but he didn’t expect…

“What?”

Xu Lin knew what she wanted to ask: how her injuries healed and how he defeated so many people.

“How did you defeat so many people?”

“It was just random strikes.”

“But none of them were seriously injured, just their hands and legs were disabled.”

Xu Lin took a deep breath and then looked seriously at Qin Yunhe, “Actually, I’m a martial arts master, but I’ve been hiding my identity.”

“Then that day, when I beat you up for half a day, you didn’t seem like hiding your strength, huh?”

“Anyway, just consider me a master. They hurt you, I protected you, and I injured them. It shouldn’t be illegal, right?”

“It should be fine. Even if I weren’t present, they were pointing sticks and crossbows at you, so it counts as self-defense.”

“The possession of crossbows is illegal, unlike bows and swords, it’s regulated at the level of firearms.”

“Good to know.”

Xu Lin sighed in relief.

He had almost acted too aggressively just now. Even though they were all scum, it would have been troublesome if he had killed them.

But that martial arts master’s skill card is really something, he even dodged the crossbow arrows.

Although the opponent hesitated at first and didn’t dare to shoot directly with the crossbow.

Well, it’s resolved now, though it’s stirred up more trouble than expected.

Originally, he thought Qin Yunhe would just confirm it with an investigation.

Then she will just bring her colleagues over and take control directly. As long as hedeal with the situation between Ma Zhiyu and his girlfriend, everything will be settled.

Unexpectedly, Qin Yunhe almost had an accident, but fortunately, he didn’t leave in the afternoon. When he heard the noise, he kicked open the glass door and went in.

“Why were you here in the afternoon? Didn’t you go to school?”

“I felt like something might happen to you, so I sent Ji Yun back and came over here. I’ve been sitting in that spicy hot pot restaurant across the street all afternoon.”

“Fortunately, the owner is nice. I ordered a rice noodle dish and stayed here all afternoon, and they didn’t kick me out.”

“Afterward, when I saw you running down from upstairs and fighting with them, I knew you had been exposed.”

“Then I went towards you, thinking they wouldn’t dare to hurt you, but the next second, I heard your screams.”

“Then I rushed in, subdued them, and called the police, even mentioning your name to make them come faster.”

“By the way, I remember, I was directly pierced by an arrow. The pain made me faint.”

“But when I woke up, the doctor said my wound was just a scratch, no inflammation, just wrapped it in gauze, and that’s it?”

Qin Yunhe looked at Xu Lin with a puzzled expression, remembering that before she lost consciousness, the other party had put something in her mouth.

“Xu Lin, I have questions, I’m going to take you back for a little interrogation!”

“What do I have to be interrogated about? I’m just a law-abiding citizen!”

“I’m just teasing you. Anyway, as long as I know, you saved my life.”

“How will you thank me?”

“I’ll treat you to a meal.”

“Can we step aside from this matter?”

“You do need to come to the station for questioning and make a statement. But I’ve already reported here, you just need to explain, it’ll only take about half an hour.”

“You’ll have to submit a written report too.”

A police officer in his thirties, wearing a uniform and with a square face, walked over to them and casually sat down.

Then he went to the steps and took out a tablet and a voice recorder.

“Captain Zhou, can I hand it over tomorrow?”

“Sure, this time you’ve made a significant contribution, going deep into the enemy’s territory and succeeding alone!”

“Great!”

“Do you think I’m praising you!?”

“…”

“You know how dangerous it is? Don’t have any personal heroism!”

“I’m sorry, I understand.”

“Alright, but there’s no denying that you succeeded this time. But there won’t be a next time, or else I’ll have the department handle your situation.”

The seriousness of Captain Zhou’s words made Qin Yunhe lower her head, then he looked back at Xu Lin, and he also nodded quickly. “Hello.”

“Xu Lin, right? I’ll just ask you a few questions here, just answer truthfully. Don’t be nervous, try to be as clear as possible.”

“Okay.”

Next, Xu Lin went through the process of recording again, first entering personal information once, and then truthfully recounted this afternoon’s situation.

Although there were no surveillance cameras in the shop, many people saw it, not only those who were beaten, but also the group on the second floor who were confused from beginning to end and didn’t know what was going on.

Of course, there are some things he still can’t say, like giving Qin Yunhe medicine, and the fact that Qin Yunhe’s injuries were actually quite severe.

Because he simply can’t explain how he got that medicine.

At least with martial arts, you can say you trained for it, but with miraculous elixirs, you can’t exactly claim you made them yourself.

After about ten minutes, the person holding the stylus stopped writing and also pressed the recording pen.

“Alright, thank you for your cooperation.”

“Can I leave now?”

“Of course, but your brother and his girlfriend will have to come by.”

“But can you guarantee their association with this matter won’t leaked? Otherwise, I’m afraid those lunatics will…”

“We definitely ensure the personal and family safety of witnesses and whistleblowers. Did you just call someone crazy? You knocked down seven or eight big guys like it was nothing.”

“When we first arrived, we were all shocked! But when you called the police and mentioned that Qin Yunhe was also there, we thought it was somewhat normal. We didn’t expect that most of them were taken down by you.”

The old-fashioned police officer finished recording and became a bit more lively, making a joke.

“I’ve practiced some martial arts with my grandfather since I was young, but Sister Qin is actually more skilled.”

“Don’t be modest, those people you beat up, now that they’ve recovered, they keep saying you’re scary.”

“Haha, I hope they learn their lesson.”

“Alright, I’ll leave Xiao Qin to you then. You two go back together. We’ve got a lot of people to take back today, just finishing the interrogations will be good enough. It looks like we’ll be working overtime again.”

“Mm, you’ve all worked hard.”

“It’s all in service of the people; it’s what we should do. Take care on the way.”

Xu Lin also saluted the other party, who waved it off, put on his police cap, and headed towards the group.

“That captain seems like a good person.”

“Yeah, technically, I should be disciplined for not informing beforehand, but it seems the captain is helping out.”

“Well, then you better thank him properly.”

“He wants to pursue me, but I can’t just give myself to him, can I?”

“Well, that’s not possible. You haven’t committed yourself to me as your savior yet, how can you commit yourself to him? And you don’t expect me to settle for just a meal, do you?”

“See, your lecherous nature is showing, isn’t it? Luckily, you’re not Wanwan’s boyfriend, or else I’d punch you!”

“Ahem, I was just kidding.”

“Still going out for dinner? Otherwise, it would be a waste, right? It’s a big meal, don’t call me stingy!”

“Let’s go! It would be such a loss if I miss out on a meal.” After all, I spent 4500 points, but wait… aren’t there supposed to be side effects?

It’s been hours and neither she nor I have experienced anything. Maybe the system is just trying to scare us?

Anyway, let’s eat first. I’ve exceeded my exercise quota for today, so it’s time to replenish.
