"Stop fooling around!"

A big police officer roared.

"It's you who are making nonsense."

Not to be outdone, I stood up and stared at the other person.

The surrounding police officers immediately stepped back as if facing a formidable enemy.

Seeing them doing this, I immediately realized: These guys in front of me probably already know that I have a divine eye, or have obtained similar information.

"Without supporting documents, I will not be arrested."

[The chance of success in fighting is 11%]

[The chance of successful escape is 31%]

The divine eye quickly gave me corresponding prophecies based on my thoughts.

Hmm...is the risk too great...

I decided to follow my own plug-in and gave up the two reckless thoughts in my mind.

"Okay~~Don't be so nervous, I'm not making trouble."

I reached out and patted a police officer on the shoulder.

"You and I are a community of interests. For the sake of bonuses, I will definitely cooperate with the police officers. After all, I also look forward to solving the case as soon as possible."

The police officer's expression changed from vigilance to confusion at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Although you can't provide proof, I don't mind going to the police station with you."

"What do you mean?"

"You can't prove this guy's crime yet, can you?"

I glanced at the snow.

"Before the formal trial, I am willing to accompany you to monitor her at the police station. In exchange, you need to let me see the supporting documents as soon as possible, how about that?"

"...Please wait a moment."

After the leading police officer left such a sentence, he turned back to discuss with his companions in a low voice.

The atmosphere relaxed a lot.

From time to time, there were several comments from the crowd watching the excitement:

"That's the murderer? It doesn't look like it..."

"It's actually embarrassing for pregnant women..."

"Arresting people without proof is an illegal arrest..."

"The police officer must be more reasonable..."

The dispute between me and the police officer just now had the desired effect, and some people who did not know the inside story began to speak for us.

Xue only spoke once from beginning to end, and then she kept watching with cold eyes, as if everything had nothing to do with her... That's fine.

The exchange between the police officers ended. The leader wiped the sweat from his forehead and made a "please" gesture to me.

"Without further ado, let's go."

"Hey, what's the hurry? What time is it now?"

"......?"

"It's not too late to leave after dinner. Are you afraid that she will run away? Don't be afraid~~ I will keep an eye on her."

I've made my position clear, you can't still regard me as an accomplice.

I saw the other party's expression of embarrassment, so I added:

"If you are worried, you can observe me and her throughout the whole process - or just finish lunch together?"

"..."

I pressed forward step by step and tried my best to dispel the other party's worries.

They couldn't refuse.

......

With permission, Xue and I went to a nearby restaurant.

The restaurant's business was very slow, and the interior space was quite small, but it gave off a particularly cold atmosphere. Two plainclothes police officers were guarding the door, and the rest of them took my examination report and disappeared, probably looking for the corresponding doctor.

Verified.

After explaining our needs to the waiter, Xue asked calmly:

"You order so much, can you eat it?"

"I've already ordered it, so don't worry about it."

"You know what I mean? In other words, what should you do if you can't finish eating?"

"It doesn't matter..."

Even though the police officers probably couldn't hear our conversation, we still had a tacit understanding to keep an eye on it.

Xue expressed doubts about the series of bold moves I just made, but I believe she can understand that I am not talking nonsense.

I admit that there is a bit of improvisation involved in my performance.

Fortunately, I have prepared more than one escape route.

If the doctor's examination report does not work, the tavern owner will detonate the smoke bombs placed in every corner in advance.

Then, my four "old friends" disguised as drunkards will take the lead in shouting to create the illusion of a fire, so we can take advantage of the chaos to hide in the kitchen basement - our seat is only a few steps away from there.

, at the same time, it is also close to the back door of the restaurant.

In addition, I also arranged for other gangsters to break open the back door of the restaurant, so that the police officers would misunderstand and chase them.

"I thought about it for a long time, and I decided to do this just because I had a choice."

"In other words, is this the only thing that works?"

"To be precise, it is the most delicious, at least enough for us to eat for a while."

"..."

After all, the divine eye has told me: it is extremely difficult to escape.

I obviously think so carefully...Is it because of magic...

"No matter how delicious it is, you have to exercise restraint, not to mention you are keen on saving. In other words, you spent a lot of money, right?"

"Well, it's okay..."

What I said sounded like I was trying to be brave.

Xue's guess is right.

The person who issued the examination report was Shu He, a quack who sold fake medicines. He obtained the medical qualification certificate in his early years, but later he engaged in shameless deeds. Ferrinold had exposed him, but did not make this secret public. I relied on

This relationship, half-coercion and half-persuasion, led him to forge the certificate of Xue's pregnancy and pay a large "fee" as a reward.

Bribing doctors, paying off bosses and gangsters, purchasing smoke bombs...it's really a thrilling trade.

I almost used up two-thirds of the money I borrowed from Manda.

Although the escape plan has not been implemented, I have no intention of taking back the Weiben in the hands of those who helped me - just treat it as hush money to them, and sell some favors at the same time.

"We need to enjoy this lunch carefully, and the longer the better."

We need to delay. The longer we delay, the greater the chance of a turnaround... Yes, there is no doubt that there is a voice in my head that keeps telling me this.

"We?"

"Yes, we. Including you."

Just do as I say.

"You haven't forgotten, have you?"

Xue shook her head.

It’s not in vain that I told you so long ago.

I suddenly felt at ease and looked at Xue with a smile in my eyes - the person I was desperately trying to save.

I didn't know if I could save her life, so I tried the next best thing to prove her innocence.

The first impression she gave me was pure, so I hope her last scene will be equally flawless.

Of course, the above are only secondary purposes.

I still do it for myself...
