While in Hollywood, I used Taoist magic to quell American terrorism.

After hearing what Cao Kun said, the two police chiefs immediately frowned.

Robert Downey Jr., despite his tarnished reputation, is still a star.

When it comes to matters involving celebrities, they must handle them with utmost care; otherwise, any mistake they make could lead to a lawsuit that could destroy them.

As for Logan Flake, they certainly know him.

In this case involving multiple deaths, the father of one of the victims.

Seeing that the two remained silent, Cao Kun countered, "Are you here to ask for my assistance in the investigation of Bella Fleck's case?"

The fat policeman stared at Cao Kun without answering, and said, "They've been missing for several days. We also went to Xihu Town, where they disappeared, to look for them, but we didn't find any clues."

Why did you find them so easily?

Because you are incompetent.

Cao Kun cursed inwardly and said, "I am an exorcist, so naturally I know some special methods."

I found the bodies of the four women in the cabin by the lake.

But that doesn't mean I'm involved in their deaths, does it?

The chubby policeman's serious expression immediately softened: "We know you're not the murderer, so we're just asking you to assist with the investigation."

Cao Kun was taken aback; these two guys hadn't said that before.

But now their attitude has changed.

Is it because Robertson Jr. and Logan Flake are involved?

Seeing Cao Kun's unfriendly expression, the fat policeman said, "The parents of those two children think you are related to their children's deaths. We are just following procedure and asking you to come back to assist in the investigation."

We have already performed autopsies on several bodies, and based on their times of death, you have a clear alibi.

Now, we believe you are not the murderer.

Cao Kun sneered inwardly.

These two guys are talking a good game now, but if he had no connections whatsoever, who knows what the consequences would be.

Thinking of the two couples, Cao Kun asked, "Why do they think I'm involved in their child's death?"

Fat policeman: "No one else can find the body, but you have."

You also brought back Bella Fleck's body, but not the other three.

"Just because of this, they suspect me?" Cao Kun admired their thought process: "Did they get something wrong? The address where the body was hidden was the one I asked Logan to tell them."

They should be thanking me, shouldn't they?

The overweight policeman advised, "You have to understand them. After all, they just lost their child, and they're bound to suspect everyone."

"I can not understand."

Cao Kun's face was gloomy.

He kindly told them the location of the bodies.

As a result, these people repaid kindness with enmity and instead suspected him of being the murderer.

Fortunately, he didn't bring the body back directly at the time; otherwise, things would be even more complicated now.

"Bang……"

Suddenly, the room door was pushed open forcefully and slammed against the wall.

Sheriff Ford strode in, accompanied by a middle-aged man in a suit and tie: "Master Cao, your lawyer has arrived."

The man in the suit stepped forward and said, "I am Mr. Cao's lawyer. Now, I suspect there are problems with your enforcement procedures. Whatever you said before has no legal effect."

The two white police officers exchanged a glance when they saw Sheriff Ford and the lawyer, and couldn't help but feel secretly relieved.

Fortunately, they were polite to Mr. Cao; otherwise, the consequences could have been quite serious.

This Mr. Cao has an even stronger background than they imagined.

"You've misunderstood. We only asked Mr. Cao to come and assist with the investigation. We haven't taken any coercive measures against him."

The chubby policeman quickly explained.

The thin policeman nodded in agreement.

"Can I go now?" Cao Kun asked.

"After you sign, you can leave." The fat policeman was very pragmatic.

"Wait, I need to take a look."

The man in the suit took the statement and examined it carefully.

After carefully reading it, he said, "No problem."

After signing the papers, Cao Kun took back his belongings and walked out with Sheriff Ford and the lawyer he didn't know.

He saw the two couples in the hallway outside.

"It was you, you killed my child."

Upon seeing them, the two couples reacted as if they were seeing an enemy, and immediately tried to pounce on them.

Sheriff Ford quickly stopped them, while the man in the suit urged Cao Kun to hurry up and leave.

Cao Kun stopped in his tracks. He looked at the two men and two women and asked, "Why do you think I killed your child?"

A woman said, "For no reason other than you, you are the murderer."

One man retorted, "Not you? How come you were able to find their bodies so easily?"

"If you don't bring their bodies back, you're guilty."

"Not only are you feeling guilty, but you also want to make money off us, just like you made a fortune off Logan Flake. But we're not as stupid as him to treat your enemy as a benefactor."

You can fool them, but you can't fool me.

Cao Kun was so angry he almost laughed.

These can all be used as reasons.

Not only did these two couples not appreciate his kindness, but they also so brazenly pinned the blame on him.

Cao Kun could probably guess some of the reasons.

Firstly, he wanted to find a killer to vent his emotions.

Secondly, it's naturally because he's of Chinese descent. In the eyes of these white people, without any reason, people of Chinese descent are born sinners.

Do we need a reason to suspect people of Chinese descent?

I'm already pretty good at finding two excuses.

Since that was the case, Cao Kun stopped wasting words with them and turned to leave.

Once outside the police station, Sheriff Ford introduced the man in the suit to Cao Kun.

The other party's name is Oscar, and he is Douglas's lawyer.

Sheriff Ford called Douglas, explained Cao Kun's situation, and urgently summoned him over.

Oscar gave Cao Kun a business card: "Call me if you need anything."

After thanking the man, Cao Kun saw him off.

He then got into Sheriff Ford's patrol car.

On the way back to Wenxintang, Cao Kun asked, "They clearly had no evidence, so why did they dare bring me here?"

After a moment's hesitation, Sheriff Ford said, "They didn't handcuff you, which is a way of leaving room for maneuver."

Once they discover you have connections, they'll say you're assisting with an investigation.

If you are just an ordinary Chinese person, then after a bit of intimidation, you will definitely obediently pay bail to let yourself go.

Given your current financial situation, this bail will have to be at least a six-figure sum.

Cao Kun suddenly realized: "So they're after the money."

Sheriff Ford nodded in approval.

Seeing that Cao Kun was safely returned by police car in just over an hour, those who had been waiting to see him make a fool of himself were inevitably disappointed.

Cao Kun ignored them and, after seeing Sheriff Ford off, reopened Wenxintang for business.

By 6 p.m., not a single sale had been made.

Cao Kun went to the back, took out a paperweight from his body, and with a gentle shake, the mangled face appeared in front of him.

"Remember those two couples from earlier in the day?"

Seeing the man with the mushy face nod, he added, "After nightfall, I will allow you to kill them."

Suddenly, the maggots on the fleshy face began to writhe faster, seemingly quite excited.
