Chapter 200 She was just a female celebrity, delicate and frail.
When they finally returned to the film crew's base, the armed police detachment also found the three fugitives who had almost frozen into icicles in the snow.
"...Captain, are they killing each other?"
The man coldly scanned them one by one.
Scarface, wanted for 13 years, committed 6 crimes and killed dozens of people. He was eventually shot in the right chest, fell into a deep coma, and lost too much blood.
The bullet, as confirmed by ballistics analysis, was fired from the pistol of the pockmarked second brother.
With a pockmarked face, he had been on the run for 11 years, committing no fewer than 10 crimes. He once killed a family from the same village over a quarrel. He has been on the run ever since, changing his identity countless times and remaining elusive.
He was tied to a tree, his right hand was broken, and he kept muttering something incoherently. The cell phone on his chest had automatically shut down due to the cold.
Fat Monk, wanted for 5 years, committed 5 crimes, all of which involved raping and murdering women, using brutal methods.
His head was smashed open with a hammer, and it seems that even if he survives, he might be paralyzed for life. I wonder if his filthy lower body will still be usable.
These three people came together and planned this gold shop robbery, stealing a ton of gold.
The captain's face was as cold as ice as he went through all the criminal records of these individuals.
It appears that their internal conflict stemmed from a dispute over the distribution of spoils, leading to a fight and infighting.
"What's this? Does God have eyes?"
Even after handling so many cases over the years, the captain still found this scene unbelievable.
At this moment, his subordinate restored the pockmarked man's phone and handed it to the captain. "Captain, we've found something!"
The captain tapped on his phone screen, and a recording started playing continuously.
“My name is XXX, I come from XXX, I have committed heinous crimes. Because my neighbor’s daughter got into university, she cursed me a few times, saying I was a toad who couldn’t possibly eat swan meat, so I killed her whole family in a fit of rage…”
The captain's expression grew colder as he listened, and he ordered his men to quickly preserve the evidence.
"Oh shit."
He couldn't help but curse, and stepped forward to punch the pockmarked man hard. His men quickly stopped him, shouting, "Captain, calm down!"
But because of that punch, the pockmarked man seemed to wake up, and he shuddered violently when he saw them.
"Police... the police are here..." he cried out in surprise, his voice filled with terror. "Officers, are you going to arrest me? Please arrest me quickly, save me! There's a crazy woman trying to kill me!"
The captain kicked him again, displacing his internal organs, but the pockmarked man lay on the ground laughing maniacally, "The police are here, I won't die, I won't die..."
The captain ordered his men to lift him up, saying, "You wouldn't be enough even if you died a hundred times."
He interrogated coldly, "Tell me, who wanted to kill you? Who caused you to be in this state?"
The pockmarked man quickly said, “A crazy old woman suddenly appeared out of nowhere and put my eldest brother and third brother down in a flash. She even tied me to a tree and made me confess my crimes. If I stopped, she would send me on my way. I didn’t dare to stop, so I kept talking and talking... and finally got you all to come.”
"..."
The man, his patience exhausted, thought that the man was still making up stories on his deathbed. "Whoever doesn't tell, I'll kill you right here."
It was just a method of interrogation, of course, but the pockmarked man took it seriously, was so scared that he wet himself again, and finally spoke in a trembling voice.
"She said she was Sailor Moon, representing love and justice."
Everyone: "..."
"Do I look like Sailor Moon to you? Are you high on drugs?" The vice-captain was also enraged.
"...I'm not lying, I'm telling the truth! It was all said by that crazy woman!"
"woman?"
"It's...it should be a woman, judging from her voice."
The captain fell into deep thought. He had initially assumed it was another group of forces betraying him, but Ma Zi's unwavering belief that she was a woman made it seem unlikely...
woman……
Suddenly, the face of the woman who had brushed past him, the one who smelled of gunpowder, flashed into his mind again.
Is it her?
But she looks like just a female celebrity, delicate and frail, yet she can take on three vicious thugs all by herself?
The captain thought it was unlikely.
He sneered, "It seems even the heavens couldn't stand it anymore and sent down a female war goddess to punish you."
He shouted, "Take them all away!"
The turmoil of the morning finally subsided as the snowflakes began to fall.
The morning performance, originally scheduled for 6 a.m., was naturally postponed. After Wu Cong breathed a sigh of relief, he told everyone to go back and rest first, and then instructed the kitchen to prepare a sumptuous meal to calm everyone down.
When Fang Ke saw Qin Xiaowan again, her eyes were darting around, and she seemed to have something to hide.
After finishing their meal, under Fang Ke's intense gaze, Qin Xiaowan followed her into the dark alley behind the cafeteria. Before Fang Ke could even speak, Qin Xiaowan's knees buckled, and she knelt down before her.
"...?"
"I'm so sorry, Miss Fang, it's all my fault. I was indeed jealous of you and wanted to take this opportunity to mess with you... But I really didn't know how a fugitive could have come up the mountain! I swear! I really didn't know. If I had known beforehand, I would have been horrified!"
Fang Ke frowned and looked down at her. Qin Xiaowan's eyes were red, and her face was full of lingering fear.
"Thank goodness you're alright, otherwise I wouldn't know what to do... Miss Fang, could you please forgive me? I really didn't mean it, I know I was wrong, and I promise I won't get in your way again. Please don't tell the director and Actor Fang, okay... Today Fang Yefan said that if I'm involved, he'll make sure I can't stay in the entertainment industry..."
"Is that so?"
Fang Ke merely pursed her red lips slightly, her eyes revealing a shallow expression. If the woman in front of her knew that Fang Ke had just crippled three major fugitives with her bare hands, it's hard to imagine whether she would still dare to shamelessly beg for Fang Ke's forgiveness.
"Give me a reason," Fang Ke said expressionlessly.
"...What?" Qin Xiaowan tilted her head back, seemingly not understanding what she meant.
Fang Ke looked at her sympathetically. "Why do you think I didn't immediately say it was you who did it?"
"...Because...because Miss Fang was kind enough to...give me face..."
"How much is your face worth?" Fang Ke smiled, and Qin Xiaowan instantly felt cold all over. She seemed to have just realized that she had offended a very difficult person, and that the other party would not soften and forgive her just because she knelt down and begged for mercy.
"Miss Fang... could you please explain more clearly?"
"Alright, then tell me honestly, who told you to lead me to White Wolf Peak?"
Qin Xiaowan's face was ashen, and she covered her head, saying, "It was me..."
Fang Ke looked at her pained expression and narrowed his eyes slightly. "Let me ask you another way. Where did you hear about White Wolf Peak?"
“Yes…” A flash of inspiration struck Qin Xiaowan, as if a sliver of clarity had broken through all the obstacles.
She remembered this, "It was Su Yao who said it!"
"oh?"
As Fang Ke's meaningful voice rang out, Wu Cong and Fang Yefan, who were hiding around the corner listening to their conversation, also narrowed their eyes and exchanged a glance.
But Fang Yefan immediately and habitually defended Su Yao, saying, "Yao Yao may have just looked up some travel guides and knew about White Wolf Peak, and mentioned it unintentionally. That doesn't mean anything..."
Wu Cong was slightly speechless: "...You're right."
"But it's a done deal that Qin Xiaowan tricked Fang Ke into going to Bailang Peak at four in the morning. She confessed herself. We kicked her out of the crew this afternoon. That vicious woman!"
"...Don't rush, let your sister decide how to handle it."
Fang Yefan pursed his lips, and the two of them once again focused their gazes intently on Fang Ke and Qin Xiaowan.
Fang Ke helped the person up, saying, "Get up first. Don't kneel down so easily. Don't you have kneecaps?"
Qin Xiaowan blushed, feeling ashamed, and said, "I'm sorry."
"You're so quick to apologize now, but when you're driven to evil, why didn't you think of apologizing to me?"
Qin Xiaowan's face flushed, and she could only repeat, "...I'm sorry."
She glanced cautiously at Fang Ke, still unsure what Fang Ke wanted her to do, but from the woman's softened aura, she sensed that she should be able to save herself.
Looking at Fang Kebing's exquisitely sculpted face, Qin Xiaowan was filled with admiration for Wu Cong. He truly was Princess Yuyang herself.
Fang Ke possesses an innate air of superiority and aristocratic bearing that Fang Ke could never learn.
At this moment, Fang Ke tilted her head slightly, and under the sunlight reflecting off the snow-capped mountains, her entire profile and hair were glowing.
Fang Ke, however, remained oblivious, and asked in a cool voice, "Think carefully now, when did you mention White Wolf Peak, and under what circumstances did you mention it?"
