The Three Kingdoms Descend: Reincarnation of a Star General, I am the God-like Lü Bu
Chapter 8 I am the evidence
"How did this knife come to be?"
A playful smile curved Lu Shenxiao's lips as he lightly flicked the purple-glowing, water-rippled blade with his fingertip.
"bite--"
The crisp sound of a knife ringing out echoed through the hall.
"That's a question for you, Xing San'er."
Lu Shenxiao looked at him with a half-smile, "That big shot named Xu Yi confessed everything. Including... who paid a lot of money to save a newbie like me."
boom!
Xing Lei felt as if a bomb had been stuffed into his brain, leaving him completely disoriented.
Xu Yi has been arrested?!
How is that possible!
That's a level 23 Brocade Sail Bandit, and he even has a purple weapon!
Combat power index over 4000 points!!!
In Bincheng, he would be considered a top-tier expert.
Even if they failed, how could they not even be able to escape and be captured alive?!
Xing Lei's back was instantly soaked with cold sweat, and his school uniform shirt clung stickily to his back.
He looked at Lü Shenxiao's handsome face. He had only felt disgust before, but he had never been so afraid. His heart was pounding so fast that it felt like his ribs were about to break.
"wrong!"
Xing Lei bit his tongue hard, the sharp pain bringing some clarity to his dazed mind.
"This kid's bluffing me!"
He roared inwardly.
"Even if Xu Yi is caught, my dad is so careful, there's no way he'd leave any substantial evidence! As long as I deny everything, what can he do to me?!"
Having figured this out, Xing Lei's originally pale face miraculously regained some color.
He took a deep breath, forcibly suppressed his violently trembling hands, and straightened his back abruptly.
"Lu Shenxiao, stop spouting nonsense!"
Xing Lei pointed at Lü Shenxiao's nose, his voice suddenly rising eight octaves, as if he had suffered a great injustice, "What Xu Yi? What buy life? I don't understand what you're talking about at all!"
He turned his head to face the players watching the spectacle, his face now bearing a pained expression.
"Everyone, be the judge! This kid awakened the worst possible basic cavalry unit, and with his twisted mind, he actually came here to frame me!"
Xing Lei spoke more and more fluently, and he almost believed it himself.
He suddenly pointed at the water-wave knife in Lü Shenxiao's hand, a glint of malice flashing in his eyes.
"What's even more ridiculous is that he's an orphan, a new player who hasn't even run the beginner dungeons, where would he get a purple weapon?!"
"He must have stolen this knife from some big shot!"
These words caused an uproar in the entire trading hall.
"Holy crap! Stealing a purple weapon? That's incredibly audacious!"
"I knew it! How could a complete newbie possibly afford such top-tier equipment!"
"He looks respectable enough, I never imagined he was a thief!"
"Grab him! Hand him over to the police station, you might even get a reward!"
The sentiment is indignant.
Several burly, high-level players with menacing faces began rolling up their sleeves and approaching Lü Shenxiao with ill intent.
Fu Qianqian covered her swollen face, hiding behind Xing Lei, and looked at Lü Shenxiao, who was being pointed at by everyone, with a hint of pleasure in her eyes.
"Serves you right! Serves you right for pretending!" she muttered through gritted teeth.
Faced with this tense situation, Lü Shenxiao didn't even blink.
He held the priceless water-wave knife in one hand, as if watching a group of energetic circus monkeys performing.
"Tsk."
Lu Shenxiao sighed inwardly.
"The intelligence of this generation of villains is really getting worse with each generation."
"Even a three-year-old wouldn't use that trick anymore, and you're still making a fool of yourself with it?"
He didn't even have the desire to explain.
Arguing with this bunch of brainless bystanders? If words were enough, what would be the point of having a physical force?!
Since the emergence of the national destiny game, it has long since changed from the original "whoever is weak is right" to "whoever is strong is right"!
"Kid, put down the knife and come with us obediently!"
A burly man with a full beard grinned and stretched out his large, fan-like hand to grab Lü Shenxiao's shoulder.
The next instant.
No one can even see it clearly.
There was a loud "bang".
The burly man with a thick beard was sent flying backward at an exaggerated speed, as if he had been hit by a cannonball!
Just as everyone on the field was feeling confused!
"Police are on duty! All bystanders, please stand back!"
A powerful shout, like a thunderclap, resounded at the entrance of the trading house.
Immediately afterwards, a series of neat, heavy, and powerful footsteps sounded.
A squad of fully armed police officers in black uniforms strode in, cutting through the crowd like butter.
Leading the team was a senior police chief with a silver badge on his chest and eyes as sharp as a hawk's.
The hall fell into a deathly silence.
Those players who had just been clamoring to capture Lü Shenxiao were so frightened that they all retreated, afraid of getting into trouble.
When Xing Lei saw the police officers appear, he was stunned for a moment, and then a surge of joy welled up in his heart.
"Hahaha! Lü Shenxiao, your death is near!"
He was so excited he almost jumped for joy, pointing at Lü Shenxiao and shouting, "Sir! You've come at the right time! This kid's a thief! That purple weapon he's holding is stolen! Arrest him!"
Xing Lei felt that it was as if even God was helping him.
Although the burly man seemed to have been attacked suddenly, for some reason.
But once Lü Shenxiao is arrested and taken to the police station, he has plenty of ways to make him spend the rest of his life in jail!
The senior police chief gave Xing Lei a cold glance, ignored his shouts, and walked straight up to the two of them.
"Snap!"
A pair of cold, heavy, and eerily blue anti-magic handcuffs were mercilessly fastened to the wrists.
Xing Lei's face froze instantly from ecstasy.
He stared blankly at the handcuffs on his wrists, his mind completely blank.
"Sir... Commander..."
Xing Lei stammered, his voice trembling, "You...you've arrested the wrong person, haven't you? The thief is over there!"
He desperately gestured with his chin towards Lü Shenxiao, who was watching the show from the side.
The police chief stared at him expressionlessly, his voice as cold as ice shards.
"Xing Lei, right? Someone reported you for allegedly hiring a murderer, with the deposit being a purple-quality water-wave knife. Come with us."
Boom!
These words were a hundred times more powerful than the explosion just now, completely shattering Xing Lei's spirit.
"No! I didn't! You're framing me!"
Xing Lei struggled frantically, like a wild boar cornered, "Where's the evidence?! Do you have any evidence?! My dad is..."
"Do you need evidence?"
A clear, melodious, yet slightly teasing female voice suddenly came from behind the patrol team.
The crowd automatically parted to both sides.
Mingyuexi, dressed in a well-tailored white silk dress, walked out with an elegant gait and a beaming smile.
Her captivating peach blossom eyes still appeared gentle at this moment, but the way she looked at Xing Lei was as if she were looking at a pile of unrecyclable garbage.
"In Bincheng, my words are the evidence."
Mingyuexi walked to Lü Shenxiao's side and naturally took his arm.
"Oh, right."
Her smile grew even brighter. "I forgot to tell you, I'm the one who called the police station."
