Huahua lay beside her pillow in the "farr’s squat" position, having glanced at her several tis.
What’s gotten into the caretaker today, acting all hyper?
Still not sleeping? Are you asking for sudden death?
Su Xiaocai picked up Huahua, blocking its disdainful gaze, and placed it on the soft mat on the floor.
Huahua always considered itself the master, wanting to sleep on her bed.
Su Xiaocai pressed it down, "You’re not allowed on my bed, or I’ll pluck you bald."
The threatened Huahua yawned without worry, wiggling its backside at her. Such a stingy caretaker, fine, I won’t sleep there.
On this late night, Su Xiaocai was destined to stay awake.
Kaye suddenly sent a ssage. He said he and Xiang Qian were at the police station and needed soone to bail them out.
The details couldn’t be explained over the communicator. It was sowhat related to Su Xiaocai but not too much, so the police asked her to co over and bail them out.
Su Xiaocai found it ridiculous; she wasn’t even a proper adult yet.
If she went to bail them out, the police would probably think Kaye and Xiang Qian had intelligence issues.
The downside of handling things too calmly was that others often misjudged her age.
It’s too late, and a female student taking a cab isn’t very safe.
A gentleman avoids dangerous situations, better find a familiar face.
She looked for soone in her contacts. Yu Haoming was out; he was an early-to-bed, early-to-rise health nut, probably fast asleep at this hour.
Checking the security guard duty roster, it was Fan Qi’s shift today, and the other security guards didn’t have cars.
Male students were out of the question, and her roommates were all asleep; they’d probably even struggle to identify the direction of the police station’s front door.
The only one with a car left was Ji Li.
Thinking about it, this guy was a night owl. She’d contacted him before after training, finding him still in the duty room.
So she contacted Ji Li, "Got a car? Can you co with to the police station?"
At half past eleven at night, she didn’t know if Ji Li was asleep.
If Ji Li didn’t reply, she’d have to find Wu Qingqing; she had a car parked and unused in the parking lot.
Before Su Xiaocai could think who else to ask, Ji Li replied, "I can, waiting for you downstairs at your dorm."
Great!
Su Xiaocai dressed, casually tied a low ponytail, threw on a light jacket, and set off.
Ji Li had already driven the car to the dormitory entrance.
She got into the passenger seat, and they set off for the police station.
The late-night streets of Capital Star were still filled with vehicles, a constant flow.
Ji Li drove very steadily, yet at a fast speed.
Twenty minutes later, they arrived at the central police station.
Finding parking in the city center was tough because every car could fly, aning the actual number of vehicles on the streets was greater than it seed, making parking spaces scarce.
Fortunately, Ji Li wasn’t short on cash. He quickly found a luxury car parking platform, parked, and led Su Xiaocai into the police station.
The police station was brightly lit, and Ji Li explained they were there to bail soone out.
The front desk’s young police officer internally lanted, which parent was this, not worried enough to bring kids to bail soone out.
Ji Li provided his credentials.
The front desk told Ji Li that Su Xiaocai could wait in the lobby, and they could keep an eye on her.
Su Xiaocai blinked innocently, as if her throat was stuck with candy, "Miss, it’s alright. I begged my brother to bring here. It’s my first ti at the police station."
"Then don’t wander around. We have surveillance."
"Sure, got it, I’ll be good."
Her history of dealing with the Insect Man shows her mischievous nature.
Ji Li didn’t expose her, gently tapped her on the back of her head, signaling that soone from the police station was coming to take them to the office.
Coincidentally, it was Officer Porlin’s subordinate.
Subordinate: "We’ll take them inside."
The police station was vast, solemn, as they passed several departnt offices along the way. So offices were locked, while others had their lights on late, working overti.
There was even a whole office where no one had gone ho, imrsed in work as they smoked, their eye circles heavily lined in black.
Needless to say, this referred to Officer Porlin’s office.
The matter concerning Su Xiaocai had an urgent order from above, demanding the crystal chip back as soon as possible, with a five-day deadline.
This was about the dignity of the Law Enforcent Departnt; if the military took over, it would an the Law Enforcent Departnt was deed incompetent.
Porlin would rather the military took charge, even if it ant slapping himself twice.
And here was yet another case involving Su Xiaocai, which other departnts had gladly left to him before clocking out.
Seeing Su Xiaocai, Porlin’s head began to ache again.
As for Xiang Qian and Kaye, the two involved parties, their clothes were wrinkled, and their hair was a ss - quite disheveled.
"What’s going on with you two?" Su Xiaocai asked, noticing an even more disheveled person sitting beside them, with swollen cheeks like buns, obscuring their original features.
