" No wonder I felt that your chest was a bit hard just now..." Linda blushed and said with embarrassment.
Shen Ran chuckled and started to untie the rope.
Whoosh!
He could finally shake off these two pieces of iron.
The feeling of being confined was too unbearable!
The fight just now was too dangerous, so he had forgotten about it.
Now that he was relaxed, he felt uncomfortable all over.
"Hello, I'm Sheriff Abner. Did you two call the police just now?”
A few police officers blocked the entrance of the alley. One of them, a man wearing a police uniform, a police cap, and a belt around his waist, showed his police officer's ID and asked with a smile.
He had a medal pinned on his chest. Other than being dressed differently from the other police officers, his aura was even stronger.
"Yes, this lady has just encountered danger.”
Shen Ran pointed at the big black man who had fainted on the ground behind him and briefly recounted the entire incident.
"You said you happened to pass by? Can you explain to me why you wear a steel plate out late at night?”Chief Abner looked at Shen Ran sharply and asked calmly.
Rather than calling it an inquiry, it was more like an interrogation.
"I…happen to like this kind of dress. It's very street art.”
Shen Ran was speechless and made up an excuse.
This Chief Abner had a very strong aura and looked very familiar, especially his unique high nose bridge and big nose. He seemed to have seen him somewhere before.
Unfortunately, Shen Ran's lame reason was obviously not convincing enough.
This was especially true for an experienced police officer like Abner, who had been suspicious of an Asian young man like Shen Ran from the beginning.
He glanced at the broken stone bricks on the ground, and a sharp light flashed in his eyes.
"During the day, you assisted the police in capturing a fugitive on Bayson Street.”
Abner's bright eyes looked straight into Shen Ran's eyes.
He used a statement instead of a question.
"Oh! Are you the police officer from earlier today?"
Shen Ran immediately reacted when she mentioned what happened during the day.
No wonder he found him familiar. This police officer was the one who chased the fugitive during the day.
According to the time loop, he should have seen him twice, but he didn't take it to heart.
Moreover, his memory had obviously been greatly enhanced because of the system.
However, the other party had only seen him once and had completely remembered him.
It was enough to show Abner's sensitivity as a police officer.
Shen Ran's heart skipped a beat.
With such a meticulous chief officer, the matter of the steel plate would not be easily solved.
"Let's go. Miss Linda said that you're her benefactor. Please go back and make a statement with us.”
Abner said politely, his tone cold and distant.
The aura around his body exuded a strong sense of oppression that made people feel like they were about to suffocate.
"Alright." Shen Ran seemed to nod calmly, but he was a little nervous in his heart.
"Boss, what can I do for you?" A police officer walked up and asked in a low voice.
"Ask for information about this young Asian man. It's best if you can leave a fingerprint. I suspect that he has something to do with the recent serial murders.”
Abner lowered his voice and gave instructions. He stared coldly at Shen Ran's back as he got into the car.
……
Midnight.
Shen Ran stayed in the waiting room. He didn't feel sleepy at all. He stared at the passing of time.
Sunday, August 12th, 2018.
At this moment, Shen Ran was not so sleepy that he could not open his eyes. In fact, he was not sleepy at all.
Just as the system had said, his watch had advanced the time.
Although it was within his expectations, as time passed, a small wave still appeared in his heart.
As long as he grasped the law that time would not advance, wouldn't he be able to control what happened every day?!
Thinking of this, he smiled proudly.
Soon, it was his turn to go in and make a statement.
He told the police everything he knew.
Similar to Linda's testimony, there was obvious evidence at the scene that pointed to the black man as the murderer.
Even though the reason for the two steel plates was illogical, and even the bluestone brick was made of different materials from the surrounding buildings, the police still sorted out the testimony and got Shen Ran to sign it before they were ready to let him go.
"Mr. Shen, your skills are not bad."
While Shen Ran was signing, Abner walked over and patted him on the shoulder. He took out a mold and placed it on the table in front of him.
"Can I leave a fingerprint? It'll be easier to compare it with the weapon and eliminate you as a suspect.”Abner had a smile on his face.
Shen Ran was a little surprised. When he saw Abner's seemingly calm but irresistible gaze, he hesitated for a moment and obediently left his fingerprint on the mold.
Although he was suspicious that Abner might have some misunderstanding or even hostility towards him, Shen Ran was very sure that he had not committed a crime, so it was not a big deal even if he left his fingerprints.
Linda's family had already arrived. After they learned the whole story, they expressed their most sincere gratitude to Shen Ran. They even strongly requested to leave Shen Ran's phone number so that they could thank him in the future.
"It's just a small matter. Don't take it to heart.”
Although Shen Ran did not think that it was a big deal, she still left her phone number helplessly.
