“l keep feeling that there is sothing wrong with that person today. Did she faint in front of you on purpose? Maybe she wants to extort money from us!” Xia He asked.

“It doesn’t look like it. I think she really fainted. Her eyes didn’t even flutter when the ambulance arrived,” Qiao i replied earnestly. Liang Jin definitely did not expect to run into Qiao i, but it was good that they bumped into each other. This way, it would cause Zhang Cheng and Liang Jin to have nightmares every night.

“Let’s rest early. I don’t want to think about those annoying things,” Xia He said.

Early the next morning, there was a loud pounding on the main door and it went on for a long ti. If whoever did that used a bit more strength, the door might even be kicked open. The neighbors opened their doors and watched the commotion quietly. Although they were also very afraid, they could not resist the urge to watch the drama.

“What’s going on?” Xia He quickly went to Qiao i’s room and asked warily.

“I’m not sure. Let’s take a look first,” Qiao i said as she picked up the coat next to the bed and put it on.

“You can’t go! We don’t know how many people there are outside and the bodyguards are not here. If there’s a conflict, we won’t be able to fight back at all. Furthermore, we’re on the 10th floor! We’ll fall to our deaths if we jump down! Let’s contact the bodyguards and ask them to co over first,” Xia He said.

Xia Zhe had bought this house because it was located in an exclusive neighborhood and the main draw was the strict security checks. One had to bring a card to enter and exit the neighborhood. This was to ensure that the people entering and exiting the property were all residents.

Whoever could make it to Qiao i’s front door were either her neighbors or people who had entered after going through the formal procedures. No assassin would choose to kill soone in the dayti.

“It’ll be too late by the ti they get here. The people outside shouldn’t be too much of a threat. I’ll go take a look,” Qiao i said as she patted Xia He’s shoulder.

When she reached the door, the first thing she did was to look through the peephole on the door. In this era, one could only see blurry images from the peephole. Qiao i could only sense that there were more than three people outside the door.

Xia He hurriedly ran into the kitchen to pick up a kitchen knife. If anyone rushed into the house later with the intention to hurt them, she could still stall for ti for Qiao i to escape.

“Who is it!” Qiao i asked curiously.

“Police! We’re here on official business. Open the door imdiately and cooperate with the investigation!” a police officer outside the door shouted.

Qiao i opened the door slowly. There were more than 10 people in police uniforms standing outside the door. Before Qiao i could say anything, the police officers entered the house and started searching.

Xia He quickly held up the kitchen knife and said to the police officers, “Don’t ss around! Prove that what you say is true! Where are your identification docunts!”

The police officers in the house did not stop what they were doing. They continued to rummage through the house, completely ignoring Xia He’s questions. They even broke a priceless vase and the antique porcelain plates.

The police chief held up his work pass and looked at Qiao i as he said, “Recently, there have been hardcore criminals running rampant in the vicinity and we have had our eyes on them for a long ti. We received a report that there has been strange activities in your house so we’re here to check if they have hidden anything here.”

“Then you should at least have a search warrant!” Xia He said.

When the police chief heard what Xia He said, he smiled mockingly. Since when did they need any search warrant to do anything? In Sky City, they could do whatever they wanted. No matter where they wanted to conduct a search, the people there had to cooperate fully. If anyone resisted, it would be

considered an assault on a police officer. That was a very serious offense.

There was an old gentleman standing behind the police chief. He was dressed up very nicely, but he did not look like a rich man. Instead, he looked more like the butler of a rich man.

The butler looked at Qiao i with a genial expression. Qiao i vaguely rembered that this person was the one standing next to Zhang Cheng during the auction. His na seed to be Zhang Ping.

“You said you received a report. Can you show the evidence?” Qiao i asked.

“The person who reported it sent the letter anonymously. We’re just following our normal procedure. You have no right to ask about our internal process,” the police chief said.

“Nonsense! There is no man in our house!” Xia He said agitatedly.

Qiao i hurriedly stopped Xia He from talking and stared intently at Zhang Ping. It seed that she had underestimated her enemy this ti. She had thought that the Zhang family would retreat in the face of difficulties and would co and invite her to Zhang Chengs villa to discuss the issue of the jewelry.

She did not expect the Zhang family to be in cahoots with the police. Then again, the Zhang family had been active in Sky City for many years and had amassed a lot of financial resources and connections..
