Chapter 408: A Bitter Defea (2/2)
”We haven't lost yet,” I comforted. “He’s just given us an important clue!”
”What do you mean...” Xiaotao looked up in astonishment.
”Hiring the Dog Trainer to help them will definitely cost a lot of money. We can check their recent expenses,” I explained.
Xiaotao’s eyes brightened as if she had seen the light at the end of the dark tunnel.
A sudden commotion sounded from outside. Qin Aonan yelled, ”How dare you hit me! Where’s the damn police?”
When we arrived outside, the old soldier Wang Xuebing came out of nowhere, clutching Qin Aonan's collar with both hands. ”Did you kill my daughter?” demanded Wang Xuebing. “Was it you?!”
The old man's hands were like pliers so even the other second-generation rich kids next to him couldn't pry his fingers open.
Xiaotao walked up to them and urged, ”Old man, calm down!”
”How can you tell me to calm down?” retorted Wang Xuebing. “You clearly said that the culprits have been arrested. Why were they let go? Did you take his money? I worked hard for this country at the frontlines of Laoshan, yet this is what I get in return.”
Qin Aonan's lawyer coldly interrupted, ”This old fart is threatening my client’s safety. Aren’t you going to do anything?”
”Please show some respect. He’s a former soldier. Do you know why he’s so angry?” quipped Xiaotao. “That’s because his daughter was brutally killed by these four animals!”
Then, Xiaotao slowly read out the names of the four victims, ”Please remember these four names. Their souls won’t rest in peace until they get even with you!”
With their guilty conscience, the four young masters looked rather flustered upon hearing the victims’ names. Qin Aonan grinned widely, ”I’ve never heard of these four people at all.”
Smack!
A loud slap landed across Qin Aonan's face, his cheeks swelling like a balloon. Wang Xuebing's eyes seemed to breathe fire as he roared, ”You killed my Lulu. I’ll make you pay for it. Pay for it with your lives!”
The lawyer snapped, ”Officers, please arrest this man at once!”
Xiaotao took out her handcuffs but I reached for them. ”Let me be the villain!”
As I handcuffed Wang Xuebing, I whispered, ”I’m sorry, old man.”
After receiving a slap on the face, Qin Aonan wanted to retaliate with a kick but was stopped by his lawyer while I pulled Wang Xuebing away. The lawyer shook his head at him and turned to us, ”This happened at the entrance of the Public Security Bureau. The responsibility falls on the police entirely. I will take legal measures so wait for the court summons!”
With that, they strode off.
Wang Xuebing squatted on the ground, burying his face in his hands as tears rolled down his cheeks. ”Did my Lulu die for nothing? Is there no justice in this world?”
In the face of such circumstances, Xiaotao and I felt our hearts sink with sadness.
