"Hmm!"
Wu Xia nodded.
He was already tormented by Zhou Fang to the point of thirst and hunger and couldn't care less about saving face anymore. He wrapped his arms around Zhou Fang's waist, ready to go deeper.
Bang!
Suddenly, a loud noise came from outside the door.
"Xia, not good, the village chief is coming to our house with the police!"
Wu Gang rushed in frantically, bursting through the room door.
"Ah!"
Zhou Fang screamed in fright, hiding away in shame.
Wu Xia's face turned ashen: "Brother, with such a shock, it's easy to scare someone sick!"
"What sickness, hurry up and get dressed!" Wu Gang said anxiously: "If outsiders see this, our Wu Family is done for!"
Wu Xia knew the severity of the situation and quickly put on his pants and shirt.
Zhou Fang hid under the covers, full of regret.
If she had known, she would have enjoyed herself first instead of playing that game of hard-to-get. In the end, she got nothing.
The disturbance had left Wu Xia very uncomfortable below. He wondered if it was because of the Cultivation Technique, for every time he hardened, if he didn't release, it would stay that way.
It made putting on his pants difficult as he had to move it intentionally to his belly button and tie it with the waistband so it appeared normal.
However, the tip was exposed and felt uncomfortably restrained.
But he couldn't worry about that now. Just as he was dressed, Li Wanshan's voice came from outside.
"Listen up, people of the Wu Family, hand over Wu Xia and Lin Jiao immediately, they are murderers!"
"If you do not surrender voluntarily, the police comrades will storm in!"
Wu Gang's face turned ashen as he tightly gripped Wu Xia: "Xia, is Li Wanshan settling personal scores? Just because you beat up his daughter?"
"We cannot compromise. If we really get labeled as murderers, we're in for the firing squad!"
"No worries!" Wu Xia said with a slight smile, patting Wu Gang: "Li Wanshan wouldn't dare to pull this off, it must be because of Chen Ergou's issue."
Wu Gang looked puzzled, and Wu Xia continued to explain: "Chen Ergou is dead, and the sister-in-law and I had a conflict with him yesterday. It's normal to be implicated!"
"Don't worry, we didn't do anything wrong, we should just be cooperating with the investigation!"
Wu Xia smiled, straightened his clothes, and walked out from inside.
Li Wanshan was hiding by the door with his men, crouching. As soon as he saw Wu Xia emerge, he immediately pointed at Wu Xia and shouted: "That's him, Wu Xia! Arrest him, he's the murderer!"
The several police officers behind him immediately touched their waists, ready for action as they watched Wu Xia.
"Hands on your head, kneel on the ground!"
"Everyone inside the house, come out now, quickly!"
The leading female officer, who was quite handsome and dashing, commanded in official lingo.
Wu Xia frowned slightly.
Whatever he did last night, even if someone had seen him, they wouldn't suspect him.
After all, from beginning to end, he never even got close to Chen Ergou.
Even if those minions controlled by the Puppetry Technique woke up and said everything was on their own orders, at most, they'd just call me back to ask for a word. They couldn't possibly treat me like a real criminal, could they?
Isn't this blatant targeting and settling personal scores!
"I told you to put your hands on your head and kneel, can't you hear me?"
The female officer's hand had already reached for the gun at her waist, her eyes fierce and angry as she stared at Wu Xia, ready to shoot at any moment.
"Linlin, I told you he was a troublemaker, and there was something very wrong with him!"
Li Wanshan whispered to the policewoman and then looked up at Wu Xia: "Wu Xia, you've committed a crime, and now you're openly resisting arrest. You're done for!"
Seeing how close Li Wanshan and the policewoman were, Wu Xia immediately remembered that Li Wanshan had a niece named Zhang Lin, whom he had used his connections to place in the town's police station, making her a police beauty who had even appeared on TV.
Zhang Lin was especially close to her uncle and took great care of her cousin, Li Mengyue.
Wu Xia cracked a bitter smile, thinking that the whole family was protective and petty, and it seemed they had come for revenge so quickly.
These people were used to acting arrogantly and bullying the honest country folk, getting them to do whatever they wanted.
But their methods wouldn't work on someone like Wu Xia, who had gone to college and lived in a big city.
"Do you have a warrant for my arrest? If you do, just come and handcuff me."
Wu Xia wore an indifferent look and deliberately spoke loudly, "Does my attitude look like I'm resisting arrest?"
"You don't have an arrest warrant, do you? Is this using your authority to settle personal scores?"
"I'm the village doctor, I have a position in the town too, you can't misuse your powers like this, I can sue you!"
Wu Xia deliberately infused his voice with Spiritual Power, making it carry far, and the surrounding villagers who were watching started discussing among themselves.
"Yeah, Doctor Wu is such a good man, he's always in the village, how could he possibly be a murderer?"
"I haven't heard of anyone being killed, have you?"
"Wasn't Chen Ergou killed? Just yesterday Chen Ergou had a conflict with them!"
"But Chen Ergou was done in by his own men, he died this morning, what does that have to do with Doctor Wu?"
"At most, they should just call Doctor Wu back to assist the investigation, this is framing him!"
Li Wanshan and Zhang Lin's faces suddenly turned ashen, and the other two police officers who came with them realized the problem and immediately stepped forward.
"Wu Xia, we would like you to come back for questioning, but to prevent any weapons you might be hiding on you, we just want you to cooperate with the check!"
"Right!" Zhang Lin, reminded, suddenly reacted, "You've got something bulging at your waist, definitely hiding something. Hurry up and take it out!"
"This thing, I'm not in a position to take out with so many people watching, too shy!"
Wu Xia, with a cavalier attitude, hugged his head with both hands: "If you think this is a weapon, then you come and take it!"
"You..." Zhang Lin, somewhat frenzied, shouted angrily: "I don't believe I can't handle you!"
She rushed up in anger, directly grabbed Wu Xia's shoulder, and then her other hand reached for the bulging area.
Wu Xia's lips curled slightly, and as Zhang Lin reached for it, he used his Spiritual Power to loosen his belt, even letting his pants drop a few inches.
Zhang Lin's hand happened to grab onto that hardness.
"You still say this isn't a weapon, hiding a steel pipe in your pants, I caught it... ah..."
Zhang Lin was looking smug, but when she looked down, her entire face flushed in an instant, her eyes a bit dazed, even focused on that enormous hardness.
Wu Xia's smile deepened, and he even shook it a couple of times deliberately: "Big enough, hard enough for you?"
"Ah!"
