Yesterday, after consuming a lot of energy, Lu Zheng slept until naturally waking up the next day, feeling invigorated with blood qi.
"Qi Refining Scripture, Five Talisman Technique, Transportation Technique, I've mastered them all. It's so boring, what should I do?"
Lu Zheng lay rigidly in bed, letting the sunlight outside shine on his sculpted physique.
"It's a pity the Peace Talisman only warns and defends against malice and non-human aura, only useful in the Great Jing Dynasty."
"Wonder if there will be a Protective Talisman against impact later on; such accidents can only happen in Hua Country modern times."
"Also can't ask immediately, getting Qi Sensitivity in half a month is remarkable, if mastering the Five Talisman Technique and Transportation Technique in three days..."
"And..."
Lu Zheng's youth stirred with springtime thoughts, Liu Qingyan clearly had an interest in him, so should he accept or accept?
"Knock, knock, knock."
As Lu Zheng reached down, there was a sudden knock on the door.
"Huh?"
No one should know where Lu Zheng lived after he moved.
Maybe it's the property management?
Not thinking much of it, Lu Zheng put on a t-shirt and shorts and opened the door.
"Lin Wan?"
To Lu Zheng's surprise, it wasn't the property management but the police officer Lin Jinghua he'd met once before.
Accompanying Lin Wan were two male police officers.
Even though they weren't in uniform, surely those standing with Lin Wan must be police, right?
On top of that, Lu Zheng sensed they were cautiously on guard.
Why?
"Lu Zheng." Lin Wan nodded at Lu Zheng.
"Uh, what's up?" Lu Zheng asked, confused.
The two male officers exchanged glances, while Lin Wan solemnly said, "There's been a case, we want to ask you a few questions, and need you to come to the station to provide a statement."
"What, a case?" Lu Zheng remained puzzled, "How could a case involve me?"
Once spoken, Lu Zheng's expression changed, "Something happened to my parents?"
Lu Zheng, always a good guy, could only think that something happened to his parents, and the police were here to notify the family.
He immediately reached for his phone to call his mom.
The officer to Lin Wan's left stepped quickly and grabbed Lu Zheng's wrist.
The other officer moved forward to press against Lu Zheng's left shoulder.
"Don't use force!" Lin Wan urgently shouted.
"Huh?"
Lu Zheng focused his gaze, flicked his right hand to evade the first officer's grip, and instinctively shifted left, pressed, and collided.
"Bang!"
The second officer was slammed against the opposite wall.
"Uh, sorry!"
Before the three officers could speak, Lu Zheng was startled himself.
"Sorry, sorry!" Lu Zheng stepped out and quickly helped the officer before he slid down, "Sorry, it was a sudden reflex, I didn't react."
Lin Wan and the others, "..."
Lu Zheng's actions left the first officer awkwardly stopped.
Lin Wan smiled wryly, "What are you doing? Lu Zheng, it's not related to your parents!"
"Ah? So it's not them?" Lu Zheng said surprised, "Then what kind of case could involve me?"
Lin Wan shook her head but clearly felt relieved, "Come back with us, we'll explain once we get there."
"Oh, sure! Please wait, I'll change my clothes and put on shoes."
Lu Zheng replied, apologizing again to the officer he supported, "Uh, sorry, my bad!"
The officer rubbed his chest and forced a smile, "No problem, it's my fault for being reckless."
Lu Zheng chuckled dryly and went back into the room.
"Lu Zheng, can I come in?" Lin Wan asked behind him.
"Sure, feel free to look around!" Lu Zheng responded.
Lin Wan and the others exchanged looks, then followed inside together.
"Should we change shoes?"
"No need!"
"Do you live alone?" Lin Wan asked as she looked around the living room.
"Yes!"
"Living in a big place alone, turns out you're rich!"
"How rich? It's rented. If I were truly rich, I would've bought it long ago."
Lin Wan first glanced at the dining table, then at the coffee table, shaking her head.
Another officer casually wandered into the kitchen, but quickly came out and shook his head as well.
The third officer leaned by Lu Zheng's bedroom door and saw Lu Zheng putting on outerwear.
He looked around the bedroom briefly before turning away.
"I'm ready, let's go." Lu Zheng came into the living room.
Lin Wan smiled acceptedly, "Thanks for cooperating."
"It's necessary!" Lu Zheng replied with a smile.
They headed downstairs together and got into an ordinary Volkswagen Passat.
"Lengzi, sit in the passenger seat." Lin Wan gestured to another officer.
"Uh, not suitable. If..."
"Hehe."
Lin Wan sneered, "If what? Even if something happens, can you handle it?"
Liu Leng: T^T
Lu Zheng glanced right at Liu Leng, then left at Lin Wan, before opening the car door and getting in.
...
The car started, and Lu Zheng shared the back seat with Lin Wan. Her scent was quite pleasant.
"You must have many questions?" Lin Wan asked Lu Zheng.
"Too many." Lu Zheng nodded, "What is going on? You all seem very cautious of me retaliating."
Lu Zheng wasn't foolish. Just the act of reaching for his phone made two adult men directly charge at him.
"We'll explain once at the station, we're not allowed to talk now." Lin Wan explained.
"Understood!" Lu Zheng nodded.
"Don't worry, modern forensic technology is very advanced, innocent people aren't usually wronged."
Lu Zheng widened his eyes, "You're making me feel very insecure with that!"
Despite his curiosity, he wasn't worried, feeling confident in his innocence.
Lin Wan sensed Lu Zheng's ease, so she relaxed a bit and joked, "Insecure? Yet you sent Lengzi flying into the wall?"
Liu Leng, helpless, turned around in the passenger seat, "Big sis, you'll lose me if you keep this up."
Driving was Liang Yuandong, a middle-aged officer, who glanced back at Lu Zheng with a probing look, "Lu Zheng, your reflexes are impressive!"
If Lu Zheng hadn't shown himself more nervous than them, Liang Yuandong would've called for backup earlier.
Lu Zheng licked his lips, chuckled dryly, and explained, "You see, nobody ever attacked me before…"
Liang Yuandong: It's like blaming us?
"Amazing, that was like the legendary painting-like strike, right?" Lin Wan looked at Lu Zheng with shining eyes, "One move to subdue Li Yanjie that day, what martial arts do you practice? Baji or Piqi?"
"Li Yanjie? The guy with the Ferrari?" Lu Zheng raised an eyebrow.
"Indeed!" Lin Wan nodded, looking meaningfully at Lu Zheng.
"That guy was even weaker." Lu Zheng shook his head, "I didn't use martial arts to subdue him."
"Huh?"
"It was Sword Technique." Lu Zheng replied with a smile.
