Sold for 300, I Fight Back with Superpowers

”What!”

Qiao Wensong couldn’t help but rub his forehead. He never would have imagined Su Qing would be so bold as to knock out two police officers. It was the middle of the night; if this was misunderstood, she would definitely be arrested.

This was a clear-cut case of assaulting an officer!

Su Qing actually felt a little bad. The two officers had indeed been wronged. Still, she had to explain herself. ”Those people built a huge laboratory deep in the nearby mountains. I was worried they might have bribed someone in the area to tip them off at a moment’s notice. It’s better to be safe than sorry, right? It would be a huge problem if word of tonight’s operation got out. Besides, I came over and asked to borrow their phone, but they said it was an internal line and couldn’t be lent out. So, I just went ahead and knocked them out. Don’t worry, it won’t have any lasting effect on them.”

Qiao Wensong could understand Su Qing’s reasoning. After all, the stakes were high. After a moment’s thought, he asked, ”Can you wake them up now?”

”I can.”

”Alright. Wake them up and have them take the call. I’ll speak with them,” Qiao Wensong said. No matter what, he couldn’t let the police from the Sanshui Town station misunderstand Su Qing.

Su Qing agreed and woke the two officers.

When the two officers first woke up, they were about to arrest Su Qing. But after taking Qiao Wensong’s call, they became much more polite to her. The look they gave her, however, was filled with pure resentment.

’How humiliating,’ they thought. ’Getting knocked out in our own station. If we’d run into real criminals, would we even still be alive? When the chief finds out, he’s going to tear us a new one.’

Su Qing coughed lightly. ”Sorry about earlier. It was a necessary measure. The situation was urgent, so I had no choice but to offend you.”

”What exactly is this case?” The two officers only knew it was a major case. The person on the phone hadn’t given any specifics, just told them to notify their chief and nothing else. So, they asked Su Qing, full of curiosity.

Su Qing, of course, knew that Qiao Wensong hadn’t revealed anything. She said, ”You’ll find out when everyone gets here. You can communicate the specifics internally.”

The officer who had first dealt with Su Qing felt his mouth twitch. Great. Earlier, he had told this girl the phone was for internal use and couldn’t be lent out, and now she was telling him to communicate ”internally.” He suspected she was being sarcastic, but he had no proof.

Upon learning that police from both Guang City and Chuncheng were on their way, the chief and deputy chief of the Sanshui Town police station rushed over in the middle of the night. At the same time, all officers at the station, including those on leave, had their vacations canceled and were ordered to return to the station to be on standby. As the one who reported the crime, Su Qing was naturally placed under close protection.

Seeing this commotion, Su Qing knew it must have been Qiao Wensong’s orders. Although she didn’t need the protection, she appreciated his good intentions.

When the chief and deputy chief tried to question her about the case, Su Qing deferred all questions to Qiao Wensong. In any case, she wasn’t part of the police system; her only job would be to lead the way.

Seeing they couldn’t get any information out of Su Qing, the station’s personnel had no choice but to give up and wait quietly for the police from Guang City and Chuncheng.

The first to arrive were, of course, the police from Guang City. To Su Qing’s surprise, one of the team leaders was none other than Gu Xinsheng.

”Uncle Gu!” Seeing Gu Xinsheng walk into the police station, Su Qing’s eyes went wide. She never dreamed she would run into him in Sanshui Town. Her excuse for leaving home had been a trip to Yun Province, yet here she was in Sanshui Town, Guang Province, involved in such a massive case.

’How am I going to explain this?’
