776 Peace (1/2)
The armed forces acted swiftly because the moment the command was out, soldiers came to hold Wu Zhen down.
She had never been treated in such a manner, but had always been the one arresting others.
Who could arrest her?
She was the only successor of the Wu family.
”Do you know who I am? How dare you bring me to the military court?” Wu Zhen narrowed her eyes, her voice was cold and hostile. ”I'm here to investigate a case. When did the armed forces have the authority to arrest a police officer? If you aren't clear about your duty, call and ask your leader, you won't be able to deal with the consequences for messing with someone you shouldn't.”
The special troop soldier swept her a glance. His voice remained calm. ”Don't worry, Miss Wu, what consequence can I face for executing my duties? As for you, you kept your badge after being fired, obstructed the armed forces and got a bunch of people to talk to me. Isn't the Wu family doing business? When did they start commanding military affairs? Also, Miss Wu, do you think it's alright to exploit your power for private matters just because your family is powerful?”
Wu Zhen eyes shot open. ”Are you from the crime squad? Did Director Huang send you here?”
She never associated them to Qin Mo since she thought that she had kept the matter under wraps and he was other than the crime squad members, who had always tried to kick her out.
She also knew that the fat Huang wasn't fond of her.
However, this must be because her grandfather had promised to get back at him for kicking her out of the crime squad.
Wu Zhen narrowed her eyes while smirking. ”I'm just here to investigate, it has nothing to do with the crime squad. You have no right to order me.”
The special troop soldier glanced at her, wondering how she made it into the police force as she really was a disgrace to the force.
”It isn't necessary for the crime squad to deal with someone like you, Miss Wu. You seem to have lived a privileged life far too long so that have forgotten what an ordinary citizen is allowed to do. You have already been kicked out of the police force, but yet, you pretend to be an officer investigating a case. Miss Wu, do you really think the Wu family would be able to save you? Don't worry, they won't. Arrest her!”
With the last words, they handcuffed her hands.
She wasn't going to let the crime squad off!
Wu Zhen was escorted to the military car and even Su Mei wasn't let off.
Meanwhile, the others continued to look for the birth records and thus in that moment, the entire room was filled with the rustling of papers.
Stacks of documents were carried in and out, but not many knew about the matter because all matters of the military had one common trait ━ confidentiality.
Moreover, the hospital director wasn't dumb and kept the matter to himself.
After all, he had heard enough to know that Wu Zhen and Su Mei weren't from the police force.
By the looks of things, he had helped someone he shouldn't have.
Therefore, his legs softened when they turned to glance at him.
But what exactly were they looking for?
He couldn't seem to figure it out.
Meanwhile, the skies over the Qin family's house started to dim while the armed guards remained at the doorstep.
From inside the house, they could see the guards on duty.
”With this many guards, how am I going to kidnap him?” Bo Jiu stuffed a hand into her pocket, tossing the apple core into the bin as she muttered.
Madam Zhang tilted her head towards her line of sight, breaking into a smile. ”Young Master Jiu, do you find the courtyard too quiet during night time?”
”Yeah.” Bo Jiu lifted her lips, calm and unruffled, not exposing her thoughts on kidnapping a certain someone.
Madam Zhang held a plate of sliced oranges. She must have sliced it after seeing Bo Jiu eating her apple.
”I find it too quiet as well, fortunately Young Master Jiu is here.” Madam Zhang broke into a smile. ”Madam is rarely at home and Sir is often in the army. Young Master always eats his meals alone and it was rarely boisterous. But it isn't the same when Young Master Jiu is here. Young Master's appetite is better and he smiles more often. Even though he doesn't express it, I can tell that he really likes Young Master Jiu's visits. Even Madam is grateful towards you for visiting Young Master. Since Young Master isn't that easy to get along with, I hope you can be more forgiving. Young Master isn't good at expressing, but deep inside his thoughts are clear.”
Bo Jiu took the oranges from her hand while smiling lightly. ”Don't worry, Madam Zhang, I bottle up my thoughts as well, but I can feel it, I'm clear of how he treats me.”
Like his importance, she had always been aware of the many things she didn't wish to scheme or guard against.
If he was someone else, she would have done it flawlessly.
However, he was Qin Mo.
The Qin Mo, whom she had spent three years and two months of her childhood with.
The Qin Mo, whom she wanted to forsake everything to kidnap.
He wasn't someone else.
Bo Jiu toyed with an orange.
If she was destined to live in darkness, she wished that the flame he burned with would never extinguish.
And even if they ended as rivals, he would still be her most important person, whom she didn't bear to pull into the darkness to be her partner.
Madam Zhang turned towards the youngster, who was wearing a warm smile, her heart sighing in relief. Young Master didn't seem to be in a good mood yesterday. ”I'll have to trouble you today, Young Master Jiu. Honestly, I was rather surprised when I saw you this morning. How exactly did you make it in? I remember locking all the doors.”
Bo Jiu caressed her nose. She had to maintain a magnanimous image in Madam Zhang's heart.
Hence, she decided not to tell her about her wall-climbing activities.
Bo Jiu decided to give a milder excuse. ”The backdoor wasn't locked, you must have forgotten…”
”Backdoor?” Madam Zhang tried to recall, but Bo Jiu was already heading upstairs.Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click for visiting.
”Eh, wait a minute, Young Master Jiu, where's the backdoor?”
Bo Jiu didn't turn because she didn't know how to explain that.
Moreover, only a few seconds before, she was still scheming how to kidnap the Almighty.
If Madam Zhang discovered her intentions, she would never allow her to take care of her young master.
Bo Jiu didn't use her hands, straightening her legs to kick the door open.
Qin Mo heard the noises from outside. Lifting his lids, his tone was leisurely. ”What is it? Did the wall-jumping student almost got found out?”
What was the wall-jumping student considered in front your teasing?
She placed the plate of oranges down, bringing two laptops over. ”I won't get found out at the moment. As long as there isn't a surveillance outside, I will be safe.”
Qin Mo looked at her, his lips curving upwards.
Since that didn't seem like the right expression, she paused. ”There're surveillance cameras?”
The Almighty reached for a remote, pressing onto the switch while the smile was still on his face.
The television switched on. It was impossible for Bo Jiu to not know who that figure was as it was obviously her on the screen.
However, the surveillance camera was placed in a hidden location.
