“During the day, they came to our house to make a scene and asked us for what Grandpa left for me. I said I lost it, but Grandma didn’t believe me and tried to break in. However, we’d already split up, and our relationship was tense. It’s equivalent to breaking up. I’ve also made it clear to them in front of the neighbors.
“But I didn’t expect they would sneak in again in the middle of the night after they left…”
Officer Lin interrupted Xia Wan and asked, “You anticipated that they would break into your house at night? Otherwise, how could he have prepared the drug so coincidentally to knock them out?”
Xia Wan looked up at him with teary eyes. “Officer, are you suspecting that I set them up? If they didn’t try to break into my house, how could this have happened?
“As for why I’m so vigilant, it’s because a guy named Lu Lin bribed some gangsters. He wants to track me down and take revenge on me. He’s from a rich family, and I fear implicating my family. I can’t sleep well every night.
“My relatives also want to steal from our family. Considering my circumstances, can’t I make some preparations in advance?
“I’m a medical expert myself. I feared Lu Lin would defile me after discovering my family’s whereabouts, so I prepared the knockout powder in advance. If he wants to ruin my innocence, I can defend myself.
“I also didn’t expect this drug to be used on my family.”
Xia Wan lowered her head as she spoke, and her shoulders trembled. She seemed to be crying very sadly.
Officer Lin was in his forties, and his daughter was in high school. She was about the same age as Xia Wan. Seeing Xia Wan was like seeing his own daughter.
He, too, would have been devastated if his daughter had encountered this.
Officer Lin’s usually serious face softened a lot as he thought about this
“Alright, I don’t doubt you. You only drugged them and tied them up. You didn’t do anything overboard. At most, it was self-defense. Don’t worry. We serve and protect, not harm.”
Officer Lin asked Xia Wan a few more questions, and she didn’t hide anything. She directly told her about the grudges between her, Li Jin, and Lu Lin.
However, Xia Wan also mentioned Old Master Lu to reassure Officer Lin that Lu Lin was no longer a threat to the county.
Officer Lin realized that Xia Wan was much more mature than her peers. If Lu Lin were still in town, arresting him without sufficient evidence would be unrealistic. Even if Lu Lin was arrested, he could still get out easily with his connections, money, and a lawyer.
The Old Master Lu that Xia Wan mentioned put them completely at ease. They didn’t need to solve a problem like Lu Lin.
“Alright, that’s all for now. We’ll contact you again if there are any more questions.”
It was already one in the morning when the interrogation ended.
Xia Wan looked at Officer Lin apologetically. “I’m really sorry to trouble you. You had to work so hard in the middle of the night.”
Officer Lin laughed heartily. “We are the people’s police. It is our duty to protect the safety of the people. This is our job.”
Xia Wan expressed her gratitude again and waited for Xia Chen for a while before they were sent home by the police car.
When he got home, Xia Feng, Xia Hai, and Yan Han were all waiting in the living room.
Seeing the two of them return, the three of them quickly got up.
“Wanwan, how is it? did the police make things difficult for you?” Yan F asked anxiously.
Xia Wan shook her head. “Mom, don’t worry. We’ll be fine.”
Xia Wan then compared her testimony with Xia Chen, and Xia Chen sai( seriously, “I’m just following what you told me.”
Xia Wan nodded. As long as what she said was the same as what Xia Che there would be no problem.
She had already expected Li Jin and the others to come tonight, so she prepared knockout drops and hemp ropes early on. She guessed that Li the others would choose the lowest wall of the villa and hide beside the advance. If someone jumped in, they would immediately knock him out drag him to the side.
Fortunately, Xia Jiang and the others were slow to jump in, so they had time to move these people away.
After being interrogated by the police, everyone heaved a sigh of relief. Feng looked at Xia Wan with admiration. “Sister, why are you so smart?
knew that they would come tonight.”
The others also looked at her, obviously curious about Xia Wan’s godly prediction..
