Chapter 1073: Chapter 1069: The Most Direct Gratitude
Ye Fan laughed: “Sister Xu, really, it’s nothing. If you don’t believe , go and see for yourself. The four thugs on the rooftop have already been dealt with by .”
“You alone against four? Do you really think you’re Superman? Don’t you try to trick , if I go in and… my son dies, you’re responsible!” Sister Xu cautiously took her gun and went to the rooftop, and finally verified that the four thugs on the rooftop had been shot dead, and only then did she breathe a sigh of relief, as her phone rang.
“Director Li, I’m up here… the thugs are dead, you can send colleagues up…”
Sister Xu was on the other side of the phone, while Ye Fan was observing the situation in the corridor, trying to comprehend why there would be thugs in this rather old-looking residential building.
Not long after, a large team of police had co up from below, the corridor was bright, and Ye Fan and Sister Xu walked down from the building. Sister Xu looked at Ye Fan and asked, “I clearly shot you just now, why do you seem fine?”
“Who said that? Didn’t it… just scratch a bit.” Ye Fan smiled and pointed at his arm.
For fear that Sister Xu might suspect, Ye Fan had pretended to have so minor wounds, as if the bullet had just scratched him. Sister Xu scrutinized for a mont and then said: “It’s… it’s all my fault. When writing the report later, I’ll take full responsibility for that shot…”
Sister Xu had only fired one shot upstairs, and she had hit Ye Fan, which practically shad her police career.
As a female cop, other than firing on the training fields, she’s rarely had the chance to actually fire a shot. The shot at Ye Fan was also the first ti in her life she fired in a real situation.
Ye Fan laughed: “Sister Xu, nothing happened with that shot, just say you missed, the bullet could be found in the corridor, don’t ntion my wound, and the incident will be over.”
“How could that be right? I fired and didn’t hit the suspect but hit you… I realize I’m really not suited to be a cop. Just now, I was scared out of my wits, didn’t even see clearly before shooting.” Sister Xu said with self-reproach.
“I should apologize, I didn’t speak up when I ca down.”
As they spoke, the two of them had already reached the bottom of the building. People from the police station had arrived, Sister Xu was just about to have soone bandage Ye Fan’s wounds, but saw Ye Fan put down his sleeve to cover the wound, which had stained his sleeve with blood, but since it was nightti, no one noticed.
Old Li was also at the bottom of the building, introducing Ye Fan: “Ye Fan, this is our Director Li, Director Li, this is Ye Fan, the Deputy Director of Mingde County… From the criminal police background, skilled and capable, just now he defeated five or six thugs upstairs by himself, isn’t that impressive.”
Director Li was obviously still harboring resentnt from before regarding his daughter’s matter, and said with a stern face: “Young man, don’t always think of playing hero, are you okay?”
Ye Fan smiled and said: “It’s fine, Director Li, if everything’s alright, I’ll head back. If there’s anything that needs a recording later, contact . Here’s my phone number.”
Director Li was not particularly interested in Ye Fan either, as this was Ninghai City’s case, he didn’t want to publicize it, since shooting cases usually need to be suppressed to avoid post-event investigation.
As Ye Fan ca outside, Sister Xu said: “There’s a small clinic next door, go there to get bandaged.”
Ye Fan laughed: “No need, Sister Xu should go and deal with the case, I can walk just fine.”
“How could that be alright? You think I’m that heartless? Just so happens, my mom’s house is next door, my parents are back in the countryside, the house has been empty all along. I’ll help you bandage up so I can ease my mind a little.” Sister Xu said with sincerity.
Ye Fan nodded, thinking to himself that had he known earlier, he wouldn’t have bothered to fake the wound so Sister Xu wouldn’t have had to fuss over him.
As Sister Xu called her colleagues, she didn’t ntion what she was going to do but still pulled Ye Fan to a nearby residential building, went up to the third floor, got out the keys, and opened it. It was very quiet, without a soul inside.
“Sister Xu, I’d rather bandage myself, your son… not caring about him?”
“No worries, I just saw Xiao An, neighbors are temporarily helping to watch over him, now the neighborhood is filled with police, it’s fine.” Sister Xu said as she opened the bedroom door. “I’ll get the dical kit, wait here.”
Ye Fan looked around the room, the furnishings were very old-fashioned, clearly an elderly person’s place, who tend to be sentintal, the old items though seriously damaged are reluctant to let go.
The room was simply arranged.
Not long after, Sister Xu ca out with a dical kit, bandaging Ye Fan’s wound, sowhat complaining: “Hurry up and take off your shirt, how else am I going to bandage this?”
Ye Fan chuckled: “Sister Xu, isn’t this a bit inappropriate?”
“What, feel it’s inconvenient being a man and woman alone?” Sister Xu glared at Ye Fan, “To , you’re just a bragging punk hero, your sister Xu likes mature steady n, who would fancy you? You think I’d like you, that I’d want to beco a widow twice?”
Ye Fan thought about it and realized it made sense, Sister Xu’s husband died in the line of duty, so she should have no fondness for show-off n.
Thinking of this, Ye Fan took off his T-shirt.
Sister Xu laughed: “Didn’t realize you’ve got a pretty good figure.”
“I exercise regularly,” Ye Fan smiled, “After all, I’m a cop.”
“You used to be in the army, right? I see you have scars, must have been tough…” Sister Xu said while finishing bandaging Ye Fan’s wound, “Wait, forgot to bring out the scissors.”
Sister Xu turned and went into the room, Ye Fan got up, just about to put on his T-shirt to leave, but heard footsteps behind him, it was Sister Xu again.
“Sister Xu, my wound is bandaged, I should go, I forgot my sister was downstairs.”
“What’s the hurry?” Sister Xu ca over, using scissors to cut off excess bandage, suddenly leaned closer.
“Sister Xu… you…”
Sister Xu unbuttoned her shirt collar and smiled: “Punk hero, you’re so used to seeing beauties, but you don’t fancy won like Sister Xu? Sister Xu is grateful and repays kindness. You protected once today, so I’ll repay it, one for one, and square it off.”
Ye Fan noted, Sister Xu was wearing only a shirt, clearly having changed when she’d gone inside before.
“If you don’t accept my repaynt, I’ll keep bothering you, saying I’m your girlfriend. You’re already married, wouldn’t want an old woman to cling to you every day, right?” Sister Xu wore a confident expression, unbuttoning one button at a ti, “You saved , helped , I’m giving myself to you, that’s fair, I don’t want to owe anyone. After today, I don’t know you, and you don’t have to know , we each go our own ways. And I don’t fancy a bragging punk hero like you!”
Ye Fan laughed: “Sister Xu, you’re not old, and you’re beautiful, you’ll make n commit cris like this.”
“Then let them commit cris.” But Sister Xu answered with fervor. Ye Fan didn’t want her to cling to him, so he used the simplest thod, equivalent exchange, and after it ends, neither rembers the other.
