âUhâ¦â Shen Yin choked for a moment and blinked innocently. âI really went to visit Nian Nian!â n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Lian Jing silently sized her up.
Shen Yin did not wait for him to speak and finished her sentence first. âDonât you believe me?â
âI believe you.â Lian Jing let out a sigh of relief. He wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her onto his body. âThen tell me, who else did you meet when you went to see Nian Nian?â
âIf I tell you, you musnât get angry!â Shen Yin pouted and held his face coquettishly.
Lian Jing nodded good-naturedly.
Only then did Shen Yin tell him the whole story of her encounter with Cheng Huo in the hospital. Then, she pinched his face innocently and said, âYou promised not to get angry! And Iâve clearly rejected him this time! I told him that whatever he can do, you can do too!â
âOkay.â Lian Jing listened quietly. At this moment, a smile appeared in his eyes.
He relaxed his grip on her waist. âThen what do you want me to do?â
Shen Yin hesitated for a moment, and her tense shoulders suddenly relaxed. âItâs better not to let rumors spread about me and Shen Luo. I donât want to be discussed everywhere I go.â
Lian Jing chuckled softly and pulled her hand to his mouth to kiss it. âAlright, leave everything to me.â
The next morning, the entire police station was silent. When Shen Yin arrived, the chief personally went to the door to welcome her. The police officers were so busy that their feet barely touched the ground. When they passed by, they only took the time to raise their heads and greet her. Then, they rushed off to do their work.
Shen Yin looked at her colleagues in surprise and asked in confusion, âChief, is there a new big case? Why is everyone so busy so early in the morning?â
The chief smiled and did not say anything. He led her into the office and personally poured her a cup of tea. Then, he said slowly, âI donât know what happened today, but those who have secretly done illegal things have spontaneously come to the police station to give themselves up.â
âGive themselves up?â Shen Yin blinked in confusion. Through the transparent glass door, she saw a man outside who was describing how he had secretly taken photos of someone. She turned to look at the director suspiciously. âWhat did they do?â
The chief pursed his lips and said, âThis one secretly took photos of someone in private. That one once stole cigarettes from a small supermarket. The one crying over there ate a huge meal and didnât pay.â
Shen Yin was speechless for a long time. She muttered in confusion, âShouldnât these people turn themselves in at the police station? Why are they at our city police headquarters?â
âThatâs the problem.â The chief sighed deeply. âIn the beginning, there werenât many people. The comrades on duty detained them first. After the interrogation, they were handed over to the police station to be locked up. Then the numbers grew. Now we donât have enough police cars, so weâre forced to interrogate them here. Later, weâll arrange for them to leave in batches.â
Shen Yin was strangely silent for a moment. She carefully raised her head and looked at the chief. âAre you trying to say that someone was behind this?â
âThat someone must be a good and enthusiastic citizen! To be able to persuade so many people to abandon their wrong ways and turn over a new leaf. Dr. Shen, who do you think this person is?â The chief slowly took a sip of hot tea and then calmly held the teacup to observe her expression.
Other than Lian Jing, Shen Yin really could not think of anyone else. Last night, he promised to help her deal with the people who were randomly scolding her online. She did not expect his methods to take effect so quickly.
However, she could not say that in front of the director. She could only shake her head vaguely. âHow would I know? They donât have anything in common.â
âThey do have something in common.â The chief smiled at her and said, âI got someone to check their social media accounts.â
As soon as he finished speaking, he deliberately paused for a moment. Seeing Shen Yinâs speechless expression, he immediately laughed. âNow, everyone in the police station knows that in order to avenge you, your boyfriend used some kind of method to persuade these people to surrender themselves and help us improve our performance.â
Shen Yin smiled awkwvardly and said, âMaybe itâs not him, or maybe these people realized their mistakes?â
The director put on a fake smile and put down his teacup. âThereâs nothing wrong with doing that as long as his methods are legal. Itâs considered a good deed. Why are you so anxious to absolve him?â
âHe definitely didnât break the law!â Shen Yin widened her eyes and anxiously defended Lian Jing. âHe stayed with me all night last night. Even if he sent someone to do this, he wouldnât use illegal methods!â
The director looked at her silently for a long time before nodding. âThatâs good.â
Actually, he had already sent someone to investigate when he noticed that something odd was going on. These people had once scolded Shen Yin online, but there was indeed no illegal coercion behind their surrender. Otherwise, he would not have chatted with Shen Yin so casually.
After leaving the chiefâs office, Shen Yin hurriedly called Lian Jing.. âDid you get someone to do it?â
