"Bang!"
Su Xuan's face changed dramatically.
Almost in sync with the gunshot, he lay on the ground and rolled like a lazy donkey.
"Wow, can't even take a joke, huh? Was there a need to get so worked up!"
Han Caiying, holding the still-smoke-shrouded pistol, had a solemn expression on her face.
The shot she had just fired wasn't aimed at Su Xuan; it was merely a warning.
"Cut the crap, hands on your head and squat down!"
She yelled at Su Xuan fiercely and signaled to the SWAT team beside her to open fire if they saw any movement of him reaching for a gun.
"Hey, in broad daylight, how can I even draw a gun!" Su Xuan mumbled as he complied, squatting down with his hands on his head.
He wasn't really afraid of the female police officer. With his skills, even faced with these tightly-arrayed SWAT members, he could come and go as he pleased.
But he wasn't in the army anymore. If he could avoid trouble, it was better to do so.
Just then, the young nurse Tang Luo finally rushed over, accompanied by other doctors and nurses from the hospital.
After spotting Su Xuan squatting on the ground, Tang Luo hurriedly began to explain to the police officers.
A moment later, Han Caiying looked with some disbelief at the petite nurse in front of her, pointed at Su Xuan not far away, and asked in a low voice, "Are you saying that it was this guy who caught the fugitive?"
The little nurse Tang Luo nodded hurriedly and then walked over to Su Xuan, bending down to help him up.
Su Xuan chuckled with a wide grin, revealing a set of bright white teeth.
"Officer, I told you that you got it wrong. I'm a good citizen who helped you catch a fugitive. You didn't even give me a banner of honor, and about the reward money..."
"Hmph."
Han Caiying rolled her eyes disdainfully and walked straight toward Su Xuan.
"What do you want? I'm not that kind of person..."
Su Xuan covered his chest protectively, looking at her nervously as if a real female predator was standing in front of him.
Han Caiying's expression froze, and she couldn't take it anymore. She burst out, "Bastard, come back to the station with me to make a statement!"
In the end, Su Xuan was still taken back to the police station, and moreover, he was handcuffed by a beautiful policewoman. The little nurse Tang Luo, worried about him, insisted on following along.
When everyone had left, a shadow suddenly darted out from a dark corner of the hospital. He looked at the howling police car leaving and pulled a fierce smile across his face.
If Su Xuan were here at the moment, he would recognize that this man was Zhong Qiang, the one he had injured not long ago.
"Hey, Brother Wang."
Zhong Qiang pulled out his phone and dialed a number.
"A kid's been taken to your station. I'd like to ask for your help in teaching him a lesson."
"Yes, yes, yes, once it's done, I'll definitely treat you to a good meal, Brother Wang."
After hanging up the phone, his face marred with purple bruises showed an expression of hate and savagery as he growled lowly, "Kid, if I had known you'd fall into my hands, let's see how tough you'll be in the police station!"
...
In the interrogation room of the police station, Su Xuan was locked up alone.
About half an hour later, the door of the interrogation room was finally opened, and in came the beautiful female officer Han Caiying from before.
Su Xuan whistled and said with a cheeky grin, "Officer, everything's been cleared up, right? Now you can unlock these handcuffs for me, can't you?"
Han Caiying had indeed understood the whole story from the nurse Tang Luo, and she had come over to release Su Xuan.
But for some reason, every time she saw Su Xuan's smiling face, she felt inexplicably irritated.
"Name, what is it!"
"Su Xuan, the 'Su' of my first name, and the 'Xuan' of my last name. You can call me Su Su or Xuan Xuan. What, you want to get to know me better?"
"Just behave yourself!"
Han Caiying put on a stern face and snapped, "Tell me, what's your gender!"
"Do I even need to say? Don't you know already?"
"I have no time for your nonsense! Tell me, what's your gender, where are you from, why did you come to Qingshan City, and what is your relationship with the wanted criminal Xu Yang?" Han Caiying slapped the table hard and asked sharply.
Unfazed, Su Xuan still wore that insouciant smile. "Officer, you're asking so many questions at once, how do you expect me to answer you all? "
"Moreover, I helped you catch a wanted criminal, and instead of rewarding me, you have me tied up here. I'm truly wronged!"
"Wronged? Humph!!!" Han Caiying looked Su Xuan up and down with a hint of mockery in her eyes.
"The hospital just notified me that Xu Yang's knife-wielding right hand was fractured by someone. And the precision of that strike ensured he wouldn't be in life-threatening danger but also made him completely lose the ability to move! Such skilled technique, and you're telling me you're wronged?"
Although Han Caiying knew that Su Xuan indeed had helped catch the criminal, hearing about Xu Yang's injuries made her realize from her extensive case-handling experience that the young man before her was even more dangerous.
"With techniques that skilled, I'm afraid you have quite a few lives on your hands, don't you? If you're wise, you'll come clean about your criminal record!"
When Su Xuan heard this, he immediately realized she was mistaking him for a fugitive. He frowned slightly, "Officer, I don't understand what you're saying. Can I leave now?"
Just as Han Caiying was about to ask more questions, there was a knock on the door of the interrogation room. A detective in his thirties walked in.
"Captain Han, Director Huang is calling for you," he said.
As the male detective spoke, his eyes greedily scanned over Han Caiying's curvaceous body, but as soon as she turned around, he didn't dare to continue and bowed his head slightly.
"But I'm still interrogating a suspect here!" Han Caiying frowned, hesitating.
"Captain Han, leave it to me; I'll continue with the interrogation," he offered.
"Hey hey hey, I am not a suspect," Su Xuan interjected.
"Shut up!"
Han Caiying uttered sharply and then addressed the male detective, "All right then, Officer Wang, please help me keep an eye on things here for a while." With that, she hurriedly left the interrogation room.
The male detective, surnamed Wang and named Tian, was a veteran in the criminal police force with over a decade of case experience. Han Caiying also trusted her subordinate greatly.
Only after she had left did the male detective reluctantly withdraw his gaze.
"So, what do you think, isn't her figure great?" Su Xuan asked the male detective with a sly smile on his face.
