Pei Ye leapt off his horse in a somersault, sprinting into the woods.
Angry shouts of several officers echoed from behind.
"What's going on?!" A few officers chased after him, but did not immediately draw their swords, because the agility of the teenager who just broke through made them a bit dazed.
"I apologise, but I know the deceased." Pei Ye turned his head and said, "Let me take a look at the scene."
The arresting officer walked over with big strides, asking with a furrowed brow, "Who are you?"
Pei Ye honestly told him, showing his martial arts certificate and recommendation letter from Master White. The arresting officer read through all of it, his face relaxing, "So, it's Young Hero Pei. How did Young Hero Pei know the deceased?"
"We were staying together at an inn in the town."
The arresting officer nodded, "Alright—Zhao Xin, accompany Young Hero Pei and keep record of any findings."
A young officer holding a notebook nearby immediately looked up: "Eh!"
