Chapter 252: Chapter 252 Entering the Capital

The police arrived quickly and lifted Jin Ling, who was still lost in the aftereffects of drugs, into the police car. Then they approached Xu Ke and Lin Mengyao and asked, "Are you the ones who called the police?"

"Yes." Xu Ke blocked Lin Mengyao behind him and spoke politely to the police.

"Since there are only the three of you at the scene, and one of you hasn’t fully regained consciousness, we need you both to come with us to the police station for further investigation," the police officer said.

"It is the duty of every citizen to cooperate with police work, but my wife has never been to a police station before, so please be gentle with her," Xu Ke, holding Lin Mengyao’s hand, beseeched the police officer in front of them.

Xu Ke’s attitude left a good impression on the police officer, who replied without much hesitation, "Rest assured, we won’t make things difficult for her."

Xu Ke and Lin Mengyao followed the police to the station. Lin Mengyao recounted the situation to the police as she had discussed with Xu Ke beforehand. Meanwhile, Xu Ke had no issues either. Before Jin Ling was sent to the Detoxification Center, she kept accusing Xu Ke of being the culprit, so she was taken to the hospital for examination, and fingerprints from the syringe were taken.

The police’s final investigation resulted in Xu Ke and Lin Mengyao being released without charges, while Jin Ling, although detained at the Detoxification Center, still needed to be questioned about the origin of the drugs. As Xu Ke and Lin Mengyao left the police station, they managed to glean this small piece of information from a new officer; nothing more was known.

"Do you think Jin Ling will confess the source of the drugs?" Lin Mengyao asked, holding Xu Ke’s hand and gazing at the high-rising sun outside.

"It depends on whether she loves herself more or her brother," Xu Ke replied.
