“Where is she?” The man scanned the hall but could not find Gu Mang.

The person lifted his chin and pointed at the interrogation room. “She is recording her statement inside.”

The man’s eyes focused on the door and he frowned.

“Recording her statement is merely going through the motions. The little girl met her match. She can’t escape from criminal detention,” the person said with sympathy.

“I’ll go out and make a call. I will be back shortly,” the man said as he headed outside.

The person was confused. “Why are you coming back? I’ve already given you our station’s doc.u.ments related to the case. There really isn’t anything else.”

The man waved and he strode outside while making a call at the same time. At the entrance, he met a young lady who was rus.h.i.+ng by. He moved aside to make way. Walking down the steps, he went to a desolate corner.

The call went through and he said politely, “Director-General Lu, I’m Wu Luo from the vice squad…”

…

Gu Mang had no parents so the station informed the head of the Student Affairs Department from Ming City High School. The department sent Xi Yan over to handle the situation.

Xi Yan had been halfway through eating when she received the call telling her about Gu Mang being detained at the police station for fighting. After putting her chopsticks down, she hastily took a cab to the police station.

As she dashed into the hall, she saw that it was filled with people. Walking up to the police officer, she panted, “Hi Sir, I’m Gu Mang’s form teacher, Xi Yan.”

“h.e.l.lo…”

“Little Xi, why are you here?” Gu Mang left the interrogation room and frowned when she saw her teacher.

Hearing her voice, Xi Yan turned to look at her before quickly walking up to her. Examining Gu Mang from head to toe, she asked anxiously, “Gu Mang, are you injured?”

The Student Affairs Department had said that Gu Mang had fought with some boys from Experimental High School before ending up in the police station.

Gu Mang shook her head and replied, “I’m fine.”

“She is fine for sure!” Liang Qingru sneered and spoke harshly. “She hit my son Yi Chen, giving him a mild concussion. He is now comatose in the hospital and might miss the national joint exam!”

Xi Yan’s face changed instantly. Gu Mang beat up Yi Chen?

“My son, Fang Ming, was beaten by her and broke his rib. Yet, the first thing your school asks is whether she is alright?” Another parent stared fiercely at Xi Yan.

When the baby-faced boy’s mother thought about her son’s fractured hand, she pointed at Gu Mang and shrieked, “Go and ask what on earth has she done!”

Xi Yan shot a glance at Gu Mang. The girl put one hand in her pocket while holding her scarf in the other hand as she stood nonchalantly. Her uniform was zipped up to her collarbone and the collar was neatly set. She didn’t look like she had just fought off five boys.

There was only one possibility. Gu Mang was truly formidable at fighting and beating the boys was just a game for her. Did she really beat up the five boys and land them in the hospital?

Although Gu Mang had some serious offenses on her record, she did not create trouble, handed in her work on time, and was always punctual ever since she entered Ming City High School. Why did she suddenly fight with the students from Experimental High School?

After moments of silence, she turned to look at the police officers. “Sir, can you explain in detail what happened?”

The police officer explained the entire event to her. Giving it a thought, he continued, “Gu Mang intentionally caused serious injury and this is a serious offense. Compensation is definite and regardless of whether she will be sentenced. In the end, she needs to personally apologize to the boys in the hospital.”

Xi Yan nodded and thanked him before asking, “I have a question for you, Sir. The five boys aren’t dorming at school so why were they there on a weekend during the staggered holiday?”

Everyone looked at her while frowning.
