Bribe
Ximen Lang was puzzled. How did this woman find her way to the villa? Damn it, this is really a ghost.
" Who are you? What are you doing?"”
A woman shouted," We're the police. Hurry up and put on your clothes and come with us…"
Ximen Lang was shocked. What did these bastards do to Cherry? If they dare to hurt her, I will not let these idiots off.
Ximen Lang's sharp gaze landed on the policewoman, and a mocking smile appeared on his face as he questioned,""What do you want to do? Did you barge into my room in the middle of the night just to see this thing of mine?| Greeting me?"
Heidi blushed and looked up. She said angrily,""Ximen Lang, you were arrested because you were involved in the murder near Haiwen High School?”
"Alright, come and catch me then." Ximen Lang's face was full of mockery.
Heidi snorted." What? Do you think I don't dare?”She pulled out a pair of handcuffs from her waist with her left hand and walked over with her gun. "Let me give you a piece of advice. Don't mess around, or bullets don't have eyes."”
"I know, because my life is very precious. Don't worry, I won't mess around.”
Although he said that, Ximen Lang suddenly moved the moment Heidi grabbed his wrist with her left hand. He agilely turned to the side to avoid the gun and rammed his shoulder into it.
"Ah…"
Caught off guard, Heidi was knocked down onto the bed. Taking advantage of this moment, Ximen Lang ran out of the room, naked.
In the corridor, two male police officers were running towards them. Ximen Lang jumped up and kicked two times in the air, hitting the heads of the two police officers. The two of them groaned and fainted on the ground.
He kicked the door open and barged into the room where Qilisha was staying.
Inside the room, the two policewomen forced Cherry to put on her clothes and shoes. When they heard the door open, the three women looked over at the same time.
Ximen Lang elbowed the policewoman on the left, knocking her unconscious on the ground. When she turned sideways, she kicked out again. The policewoman on the right was kicked and knocked into the wall, also fainting.
She said anxiously," Come with me quickly.”Ximen Lang grabbed Cherry's hand and dragged her out of the bedroom, running down the stairs.
As soon as he arrived at the living room, he raised his hands involuntarily. He saw more than ten policemen with pistols staring at them like tigers eyeing their prey. They shouted,"Don't move, raise your hands…"
At this point, Ximen Lang knew that he could not escape from the gun no matter what. He said coldly,""What are you trying to do by trespassing on private property?”
"Ximen Lang, you're under arrest for injuring a citizen of Country M.”
In extreme displeasure, the police officer pouted and said,""What is this? Find him a set of clothes to wear.”
A police officer went to the room next door and found a pair of trousers and a shirt. He walked over and handed them to Ximen Lang. "Hurry up and put on your clothes."㊣(3)
Ximen Lang took the clothes and pants and put them on quickly. Two police officers walked forward and handcuffed Ximen Lang. At this moment, the police officers who were attacked were carried down from upstairs. Only Officer Heidi was uninjured. She glared at Ximen Lang.
Ximen Lang looked at the senior police officer and said,""I can go with you, but that case has nothing to do with this girl. I hope you can let her go?”
The police officer said," After the investigation, we also know that she has nothing to do with the murder. However, as an eyewitness, we need her to go to the police station to make a statement. We won't make things difficult for her. As for you, you should worry about yourself. If you're convicted, I'm afraid you'll have to spend the rest of your life in prison.”
Hearing this, Cherry couldn't help but worry for her lover. Her eyes filled with tears as she said,"Officer, it's not his fault. It was those members of the Devil Party who wanted to hurt him, so he acted in self-defense.”
The police officer sneered and said," What a joke. More than fifty people were seriously injured in self-defense? Miss, if you have anything to say, you can talk to the police station. Take them away.”
Ximen Lang was touched to see how much Cherry cared about him. He turned his head and said,"It's okay. They can't do anything to me. You don't have to worry. The person who can do anything to me hasn't been born yet.”
" Yes." Melissa nodded with tears in her eyes. Ximen, you'll be fine. You're not at fault. The law will give you justice.”
Ximen Lang didn't think much of it. This girl was too naive. The law was just a rule set by powerful people for the poor. What justice was there to speak of?
"Let's go…"
A group of police officers berated a young man and woman and brought them out of the villa. They escorted them into a police car and drove straight to the Sindier Police Station.
After arriving at the police station, the two of them received different treatment. A policewoman questioned Cherry in the lobby and told her what had happened. As for the suspect, Ximen Lang, he was detained in a small interrogation room. He was handcuffed and sat on a chair, waiting for interrogation.
With a clang, the closed iron door was opened. A policewoman walked in, locked the iron door, and sat behind the interrogation table.
Ximen Lang looked up and saw that this female officer was the one who had been chasing him. He couldn't help but frown. Damn it, why was this guy still haunting him!
Officer Heidi said coldly,""From now on, everything you say will be used as evidence in court. I hope you will be responsible for your words and deeds.”
Ximen Lang looked at her and said lightly,""How about I give you 100,000 dollars to make a phone call?”
"What did you say?" Officer Heidi looked at him angrily. She felt that he was insulting her. As a police officer who had sworn to be loyal to the sacred profession of the Stars and Stripes, how could she accept bribes from criminals?
"As long as you let me make a phone call, I'll give you 100,000 dollars. How about it?”Ximen Lang repeated.
Officer Heidi refused righteously." That's impossible. Stop dreaming. I'll never accept your bribe."”
"How about 500,000 dollars? It's just a phone call.”Ximen Lang didn't give up.
"No, I won't do that." Although she still refused, Heidi's tone had softened. After all, 500,000 dollars was equivalent to her income for more than ten years. This was a tempting sum of money.
Ximen Lang smiled and continued,"How about a million dollars? This is the highest price I can offer.”
Heidi's mental defense completely collapsed. One million dollars was a huge sum of money. With it, she could get a high-end apartment, a sports car, and expensive jewelry. It was just a phone call. Nothing would happen.
She really wanted to nod in agreement, but when she looked at the other party who was only wearing pants and a shirt, she remembered that he was naked when he was caught. A very serious problem was placed in front of her.
" It's not difficult for me to agree to your request," Heidi asked in confusion." But where can you get a million dollars from?"”
