This is truly rare.
Beep beep!
The piercing sound of sirens suddenly rang out, interrupting Chen Qian's thoughts. Before he could even gather combat experience, numerous red dots had already been spotted on him.
"Don't move!"
Accompanied by a loud shout, bright lights illuminated the spot where Chen Qian was standing.
We were a bit careless.
Although these police officers were specially trained in stealth techniques, Shen Qian's keen mental abilities should have detected it earlier, which is the consequence of remaining in the same place after the battle.
However, the lack of system warnings was also a major reason for the relaxation before the sinking.
Chen Qian shrugged helplessly; all he could do was show his face.
But before he could speak, several astonished voices rang out, "Shen Qian?!"
Shen Qian looked in the direction of the sound and saw that the leader of the group of police officers was none other than his old acquaintance, Song Ye. Many other police officers who had seen Shen Qian before also recognized him.
"It's you again?"
Song Ye's lips twitched, but his expression was even more helpless than Shen Qian's.
Especially when he saw the corpses of scavengers scattered all over the ground, Song Ye couldn't help but sigh. While using the walkie-talkie to call his colleagues to lift the alert, he rubbed his forehead and finally couldn't help but lecture Shen Qian.
"You're being incredibly reckless, barging into a scavenger's settlement all by yourself!"
"Would you believe me if I said I just came for a walk?"
Although he knew it wouldn't have much effect, Shen Qian still managed a dry laugh.
...
On the way back to the police station, Shen Qian could feel the police officers around him secretly observing him.
After all, the fact that the national martial arts champion appeared at the garbage dump outside the city late at night and single-handedly wiped out the scavengers was still enough to pique their curiosity.
However, Shen Qian kept insisting that he had accidentally wandered into the garbage dump while taking a walk, but he resolutely denied that he had gone there to kill someone.
...Too tyrannical would damage one's image.
As a well-known figure in Jingcheng, Shen Qian still needs to avoid mentioning it.
"Brother Song, is everything alright at home?"
After hesitating for a moment, Chen Qian looked at Song Ye, who was much more taciturn than before, and finally couldn't help but ask.
Song Ye seemed to know what Shen Qian wanted to ask. He nodded and then shook his head, his expression momentarily confused.
"I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing. If it's a bad thing, my two nephews, who are only four years old, have already been recommended to the Southwest Military Academy ahead of schedule, and my sister-in-law also received a sum of compensation and moved house..."
"But even though we agreed on it, my mother would often secretly hold a picture of the Mercedes-Benz and cry her eyes out. Whenever I returned home, I always felt that it was empty and something was missing."
He fell silent for a moment before sinking.
"Let's not talk about this anymore, it's all in the past anyway."
Song Ye shook his head, then frowned and said, "Shen Qian, your current status is different from before. You must think twice before acting..."
"Brother Song, today was really just an accident, you have to believe me."
Shen Qian pointed again to the blurry figure moving with the car in mid-air outside the window, "Besides, you've seen it yourself, I actually have bodyguards."
Song Ye's expression softened slightly, and he nodded and sighed, "As expected of a prince's disciple, a peerless genius, even the mountains and seas can only protect you."
"Don't say that, we're just business partners."
Shen Qian waved his hands repeatedly, then, remembering his earlier question, he couldn't help but ask, "Brother Song, didn't you say you were going to join forces with the Southwest Army for a sweep? Hasn't it started yet?"
Song Ye shook his head. "It's over."
“Then how come…” Shen Qian was stunned.
Upon hearing this, Song Ye's expression also became somewhat confused. "I don't know either."
"you do not know?"
"We really didn't know," Song Ye said with a wry smile. "If we had known, how could we have allowed so many scavengers to gather on the outskirts of the city?"
"Was the sweep not thorough enough?" Shen Qian frowned.
“Impossible!” Song Ye shook his head decisively. “Although the sweep did not achieve great results, the scavengers in the ten-kilometer radius of Jingcheng were truly wiped out. As for these people… I don’t know where they came from.”
Shen Qian knew that Song Ye had no reason to lie to him, which made the whole thing even more bizarre.
"Do scavengers have an identity?" Shen Qian asked, a thought suddenly occurring to him. "For example, is it possible to trace the specific origins of these scavengers?"
“I know what you mean. Scavengers actually have their own order, so they are not entirely untraceable. I have already sent people to investigate, but there are no results yet.”
Song Ye nodded and said.
The rest of the journey was silent. When they arrived at the police station in the south of the city, Shen Qian first told Dao Jiu to return to the Tower of Babel on his own, as he needed to stay behind to make a statement.
...And while we're at it, let's see if there's a reward or anything.
Even a mosquito's leg costs money!
Based on a minimum bounty of 5,000 yuan for a scavenger, this would amount to at least several tens of thousands of yuan.
...
Inside the interrogation room, Shen Qian frowned, somewhat puzzled.
He has been sitting here for more than two hours, but no one has come to take his statement.
Squeak!
The door was finally pushed open, but it wasn't Song Ye who came in; instead, it was another unfamiliar police officer who stood outside the door but didn't come in.
"Can I go now?" Shen Qian finally understood his body language and stood up in surprise.
Taking a statement is a necessary procedure, so what's going on here?
The police officer didn't explain. After asking Chen Qian several times without getting any answers, he gave up and strode out of the interrogation room.
As they walked out of the police station, a stretched Hongqi car suddenly stopped in front of Shen Qian.
