Betrayed, Then Back For Blood

Chapter 100

The police station was still bustling and holy in the evening

The lobby, already filled with noise and movement, became even more crowded with the arrival of a group of handcuffed thugs with brightly dyed hair, alongside a few clean–cut, well–dressed young men and women who looked perfectly well–behaved.

Since Briar and the others were victims, they were seated along a row of chairs against the wall. Each of them held a cup of water, and a female officer was gently comforting Ellen, who appeared to be frightened.

The group of thugs, however, received no such kindness. They were dragged to the corner and ordered to squat. Even the one with the broken arm, although not handcuffed due to his injury, was still forced to squat.

After all, those thugs had long criminal records and were already blacklisted by the local police.

The lead thug, with tears streaming down his face, pointed at Briar, who sat calmly beside Ellen. He cried out in accusation, “Officer, we’re not lying this time! It was her! She took down all of us by herself and even broke my buddy’s arms!”

“Yeah, yeah! We can all testify! She started it and injured us!”

“That’s right! She even kicked me in the… down there…”
