After Being Blackened All Over the Internet, I Ruled the Military Variety Chapter 545 - 535: Shen Yunqing’s Guest Simulation

Jing Huai saw Jiang Lingxi and Shen Yunqing walking side by side. He held his breath for three seconds before getting up to et them.

Stopping again almost three ters away, he called out first, "Miss Jiang, Mr. Shen."

Jiang Lingxi had already t Lu Ye, who ca down to receive them earlier. Seeing Jing Huai now, she said, "Xu Qingi’s assistant has already called the police."

Jing Huai was montarily stunned, and when he ca to his senses, he broke out in a cold sweat.

If Lu Ye hadn’t stopped him earlier, he would likely already be on his way to sneak into Xu Qingi’s hospital room.

If during this ti, he was accidentally discovered by the police, he would surely be caught as a suspect.

"No, wait, will the police co looking for next?"

Xu Qingi was hospitalized after he exposed the big scandal, and now that Xu Qingi’s assistant chose to call the police, wouldn’t he, the instigator who brought the scandal to light, be questioned?

If by any chance the wound on Xu Qingi’s chest was indeed inflicted by him...

Back then, after he stabbed Xu Qingi with that fruit knife, he ran away in haste, leaving the evidence still on Xu Qingi.

Will the police find that fruit knife?

Jiang Lingxi looked at Jing Huai, who was sweating profusely from the scenario he imagined, and couldn’t bear to watch, but still reminded him, "It’s very likely, because after you exposed those things, she was hospitalized. And based on what you revealed, Xu Qingi had so humiliated you; you have a very strong motive."

Jing Huai was already in a panic, and upon hearing this, his face turned even redder.

"I, I only wanted to be famous before, to be a top star, so I lost my head!"

"Now’s not the ti to reflect on this," Jiang Lingxi interrupted coldly, "You need to think about how to deal with it if the police really co. You have a solid alibi, and Xu Qingi’s injury this ti has nothing to do with you on the surface. But just by your appearance now, the police can tell at a glance that you have a guilty conscience."

Jing Huai wiped his face in sha and lowered his head, "Xu Qingi is too strange. I don’t want to be afraid, but I can’t control it. If, if I had known beforehand that exposing this matter would lead to such a big incident, I..."

"There’s no ’if,’" Jiang Lingxi said, unable to help but glance at Shen Yunqing sitting quietly beside her, "Why don’t you play the part for a bit?"

It was only on their way here that they realized they had a flaw on their side, which was Jing Huai.

No one expected Xu Qingi’s assistant to choose to call the police, but since they had, the police would investigate accordingly.

Even she was questioned by the police because of a phone call from Xu Qingi, let alone Jing Huai.

His suspicion in the eyes of the police was greater than anyone else’s!

It’s almost certain they’ll co to question him.

But seeing him so flustered at the prospect of dealing with the police, Jiang Lingxi genuinely worried he might accidentally reveal sothing he shouldn’t.

If it were discovered that she also had so connection to the matter, she too would be under police scrutiny.

And that’s not the kind of attention she wanted.

It’s ti for Shen Yunqing, the forr Assistant Minister of Ministry of Justice who had personally handled many cases, to step up.

Instantly understanding what Her Majesty wanted him to do, Shen Yunqing: "..."

Still unaware of what he would soon face, Jing Huai: "..."

Jiang Lingxi: "I haven’t even had lunch yet."

"Ahem," Shen Yunqing got up and approached Jing Huai, "Leave it to ."

...

Ten minutes later.

Jiang Lingxi and Shen Yunqing walked out of the room as briskly as they ca in, side by side.

Left behind was Jing Huai, sitting there drenched in sweat, his legs weak, gripping the table tightly to keep from falling to the ground.

Facing Mr. Shen’s imitation of a police interrogation, he really thought he was about to et his deceased grandmother.

Is being questioned by the police always this terrifying?

Jiang Lingxi and Shen Yunqing were eating in the break room next to Lu Ye’s office.

Halfway through their al, Shen Yunqing received a ssage from Lu Ye.

"The police contacted Jing Huai, probably will arrive at the institute in about ten minutes."

So, after finishing their al, they didn’t rush to leave the break room. Instead, they turned on the TV in Lu Ye’s break room, linking it to the surveillance of Jing Huai’s room.

After just a short wait, they saw on the screen Lu Ye leading a male and a female police officer into Jing Huai’s room.

Jiang Lingxi recognized the two police officers, "They’re the ones who questioned earlier."

From the surveillance, it seed Jing Huai had just taken a shower, as his hair was still wet when he ca out to et the officers.

"Hello, officers."

The greeting was tinged with nervous tremor, but that was normal.

It’s unusual for a regular person to not feel a bit anxious when eting police officers.

The two officers nodded, "We’re here to ask Mr. Jing so questions. Mr. Jing, please don’t be too nervous. It’s just a routine inquiry."

"Okay, I understand."

But just as they were about to take a seat, the male officer glanced in the direction of the surveillance cara.

Lu Ye quickly explained, "Mr. Jing is currently assisting with so research, which involves certain risks. For safety, his room’s surveillance is always on."

"Alright then. Now, please answer my questions. When and where was the last ti you t Ms. Xu Qingi, and was there anyone else present?"

...

The questioning lasted nearly half an hour.

Looking at the young man in front, who was still a bit nervous but increasingly steady, the two officers exchanged a glance and stood up, "Alright, that’s all for the questions. Thank you for your cooperation, Mr. Jing. However, until the case is solved or Ms. Xu withdraws her complaint, please do not leave the Imperial City, as we may need to question you again at any ti."

Jing Huai hurriedly stood up to nod, "I will definitely cooperate. Thank you, officers. Take care on your way back."

After seeing the police off, Jing Huai let out a sigh of relief and returned to his room, only to find Jiang Lingxi and Shen Yunqing still there, waiting for him.

"You responded quite well."

Jing Huai suddenly realized, "Were you watching the surveillance just now?"

"That’s right," Jiang Lingxi nodded in acknowledgnt, "We had to see the results of the last-minute special training."

Jing Huai: "..."

After a mont of speechlessness, he looked at Shen Yunqing standing next to Jiang Lingxi, "The stress I felt from those two officers wasn’t as intense as what Mr. Shen gave ."

If the previous encounter was a thunderous blow, then the recent one was like a gentle breeze and drizzle.

In comparison, the pressure from the police was more about them wearing uniforms.

Plus, out of all the questions they asked, nine out of ten were ones Shen Yunqing had already simulated with him during questioning practice.

It was like being a student prepped with questions and given answer hints before the test, making the actual questioning feel seamless.

"May I ask, what did Mr. Shen do before?"

He’s genuinely curious right now, how could this person be more professional than the police!
