Meng Qingxue’s fraught emotions finally calmed down by a bit, and only then did she carefully raise her head to have a good look at the police.

What she saw was a lady officer in uniform, standing tall and proud, before her. With a proportionate body, the cop, under the brim of her cap, had a slim face no larger than the size of a palm. The face wore no makeup, not even lipstick, but it looked clean, with a pair of sparkling big, beautiful eyes, accompanied by a high nose bridge and rosy lips. The policewoman looked friendly yet stern and winsome in her uniform!

The policewoman’s face had a healthy glow, which was considered rare in the city of Yan. Unlike her, the lady officer did not seem to know much about makeup or any beauty regime. However, the latter’s face was clear and blemish-free, having distinctive features and sharp contours. She might not be a stunning beauty but was still a pretty woman.

Seeing that the other just kept staring at her, Chu He touched her face curiously and asked smilingly, “Why do you keep staring at my face? Is there something on it?”

“T-There’s nothing!” Meng Qingxue lowered her head in embarrassment, then she asked, “What about those two?”

“Which two?”

“The two… with one called Ah Dong and the other something like Ah Cheng…”

“Oh, they’re outside.”

“Outside the door?” The woman could not help tensing in fear again.

Those bad guys haven’t left yet?!

Then…

She called the police, so if the two got away scot-free, would they come seeking her for revenge afterward?

The policewoman seemed to have guessed her concerns and comforted. “Lass, don’t be afraid; with me around, they can’t do anything to you!”

From this cop’s mannerism, the sense of justice that appeared in her was by no means pretentious!

She could not help liking this lady officer standing before her.

In the past, she had come into contact with some police officers, and they gave her no sense of security despite wearing the same uniform. Those cops seemed very indifferent to the victims’ plights, in fact.

This was not the case with this policewoman, though. Unlike her male counterparts, she was gentler and more emphatic.

“Lass…”

Meng Qingxue broke into a smile when she heard that call. “Your age doesn’t seem to be far from mine!”

“I should be a few years older than you. I’m twenty-four years old.”

“Huh? You look about the same age as I am, though.”

The two exchanged friendly banter, which somewhat loosened the tense atmosphere.

In order to appease the young lady’s fretful emotions, Chu He chatted with her briefly before saying, “Change your clothes and come down to the police station with me to make a statement!”

“Oh… okay.”

She waited outside the door, and ten minutes later, the young lady emerged from the room after washing up and changing into another set of attire.

Meng Qingxue had just stepped outside when she saw the policewoman standing in front of the two rogues with her hands behind her back. Somehow, the three seemed to know one another, and what was even more unbelievable was that the lady officer seemed to hold extreme power over the two punks. They trembled and bowed their heads in front of her and dared not tarry with their answers whenever she threw them questions.

“You guys are gambling again, aren’t you?” asked the female officer.

“It isn’t gambling exactly… Just token sums that come and go; not much…”

“Not much coming and going?” Chu He snorted. “So you tried robbing a lady when you didn’t have much coming and going?”

“Sister Chu… are you on duty tonight at the station?”

Inwardly, the two could only sigh at their bad luck.
