"You should have expected that from the beginning," Daisy sneered. The police didn't arrive until half an hour later. It seemed that a tea with the chief of Public Security Bureau was inevitable.
"Bitch, you wait. I won't let you off." Sen was on the verge of losing control of his emotions. The dagger pointed at Mary's neck dug deep into her skin. She was bleeding.
Hearing the word bitch, Daisy squinted her eyes grimly at Sen.
Please don't. Don't kill me!" Mary begged, trembling. Feeling the pain in her neck, she feared that Sen would slit her throat the next second.
Be quiet! Or I'll kill you!" The police were getting closer. Sen kept a close watch on them and was on the alert against Daisy's ambush at the same time. Mary's pleading disturbed him a bit. Daisy took the opportunity and approached him swiftly. She grabbed the blade and got Mary out of his embrace. She kicked Sen hard in the balls and struck him with her elbow. Sen was caught, yet Daisy was cut by the blade and her hand was bleeding profusely.
Sis Daisy, are you all right?" Leena came back with the police. She had intended to call the police again, but then she ran into them before she could run far away from here.
"It doesn't matter. It is just a scrape." Daisy indifferently looked at Mary, who was sitting on the ground. The pain in her palm made her frown.
Ah! Sis, you are bleeding. Hurry. Let's go find Tom." Leena screamed at Daisy's bleeding hand.
Excuse me. Are you Colonel Ouyang?" A policeman asked, head tilted. He felt that he had seen this female military officer before. She looked like the colonel who had been to their bureau several times to see their chief.
"Yes, I am. The police should arrive at the crime scene within five minutes. Why did it take you half an hour to get here?" Daisy peered at the man with a calm face. Yet the calm was just a prelude to a burst of rage.
"Sorry. We didn't know it was you who called the police. And there was an accident on our way here, so..." Once the policeman confirmed Daisy's identity, he kept his head down and didn't dare to look at Daisy in the eye.
"Do you mean you would have come here earlier if you had known it was me? I see. Take them to the police station and interrogate them. And tell Mr. Yi that I'd like to have a tea with him someday," Daisy said grimly. It was time she helped the police establish some discipline in their work.
No, Colonel Ouyang. That's not what I meant." The policeman rubbed his head nervously. He felt Daisy had misunderstood him but he couldn't clear the misunderstanding and had made it worse.
"It's no use explaining. What's done is done. I'll leave everything here in your charge. I have something else to do. I won't go to the police station to do the statement." Daisy didn't like to use her power, but she hated the police's sloppy attitude. To her, they were just making excuses.
"Yes, Colonel Ouyang." The policeman let out a long exhalation. He wished he weren't the one on duty tonight. It had been an eventful evening. They had left the station the second they got the call. However, at an intersection two cars crashed terribly, they had to stop to save people, so they came late. As a result, they got late in reaching the crime scene. Unfortunately, the caller was the well-known Devil Trainer Colonel Ouyang. Since Daisy refused to hear him out and told him she would drink tea with the chief, the policeman sensed trouble was around the corner.
Daisy squeezed her fist. Seeing blood, she knew that she had to go to the hospital and get the cut bandaged. She was certain that if Edward found out about her new injury, he would get really angry.
"Sis Daisy, let's go. I called Tom. He's on his way." Leena's eyes were wet. She was worried and frightened.
What? You called Tom? We can just go to a general hospital. I've troubled him so many times in the past. I'm embarrassed to trouble him again and again." Daisy felt sorry that Tom had almost become her personal doctor of late.
"Daisy, wait!" Mary suddenly walked up to her when she and Leena were ready to leave.
"If you want to thank me, it's not necessary. I just did what I have to as a service woman. If you want to humiliate me, I'm sorry I'm in a rush right now," Daisy said coldly without turning her head.
Why should I thank you? You owe me that much! If you hadn't had my mom arrested, I wouldn't have ended up like this. So I won't thank you for tonight!"
Mary gazed at Daisy's injured hand. Her fists were clenched and released. She had gathered all her courage to say thank you to Daisy. But hearing Daisy's remarks, she lost her courage and turned hostile again.
"Whatever. All I want to say is that I won't be around every time you are in trouble. You look out for yourself." Daisy took her leave. Whether Mary listened to her or not, there was nothing else she could do for her. She did all she could.
"Excuse me, police officer. Who's that woman? She sure can fight and looks powerful," Sen asked the policeman as soon as Daisy was out of sight. With the handcuffs on, he didn't dare to be insolent anymore.
How stupid are you? She's the youngest colonel of our city. Who gave you the nerve to mess with her? And you claim to be the head of a gang? Now even I am in trouble because of you! I wish I could just kill you with the stock of my gun." The policeman hit Sen hard on the head with the gunstock.
"She is the colonel everybody's been talking about? No wonder she can fight." Sen swallowed some saliva. He had been wondering why the woman was so arrogant, it turned out she was a high-level military officer.
"You are lucky she didn't make you a cripple. I admire your courage, though. Have a good time in jail!" The policeman shook his head speechlessly. It was a horrible thing to be this ignorant in life. The moron had started a fight without even checking on Daisy's identity. Even if he didn't know who she was, couldn't he see her epaulets? On seeing the hooligans lying or sitting here and there, the policeman could know that there had been a fierce fight here a while ago. Daisy had handled all those hooligans on her own. Her bravery and strength was indeed impressive.
Sis, the bleeding is not stopping. I'll call Tom again and asked how far he has reached. Leena was sobbing. She blamed herself for suggesting Westin Western Restaurant. If they hadn't been to that restaurant, they wouldn't hjave been involved in this fight and Daisy wouldn't have hurt herself. Edward would be very furious enough to kill her.
Leena, don't worry its nothing. Im used to this kind of small cuts and bruises. Looking at Leena's disheveled hair and tearful face, Daisy tried to soothe her. This must be her first time to experience something like this. She was frightened.
