Chapter 266: Man in Black

“Okay.”

She didn’t know how to answer him.

No amount of words could express her grat.i.tude towards the Chief Instructor.

There never were words that could move her to the brink of tears.

This was probably the most pleasant words she had ever heard both in her previous and current life.

He Niancheng spoke in a concise manner. Right after hearing Gu Qingjiu’s response, he had ended the call.

Watching the screen of her phone switch off after ten seconds, Gu Qingjiu felt as though she was bewitched. She couldn’t control her lips from curling up.

She then went on to a.s.sure Qi Yuefeng, who still appeared lost. “Mom, don’t worry. They caught Hu Yan.”

“They did?”

Overwhelmed with surprise, Qi Yuefeng’s voice suddenly grew loud.

At the same time, the couple on the other side received permission to enter and meet Gu Hong.

Qi Yuefeng turned to look at them and the couple did the same. The man warmly smiled, but the woman rolled her eyes in frustration.

They were then escorted by a police officer to enter a corridor.

Qi Yuefeng couldn’t be bothered about their reactions. Holding Gu Qingjiu’s hands, she eagerly asked, “Did they really apprehend him?”

Because she was too overwhelmed, her voice shook.

Gu Qingjiu nodded in affirmation. “They caught him. The Chief Instructor is coming here now. Mom, don’t worry. Dad will be released shortly.”

Hearing Gu Qingjiu’s reply, Qi Yuefeng finally could rest her uneasy heart.

Although the man was already caught, they didn’t speak to the police officer.

They merely waited at the hall in the police station.

The Chief Instructor didn’t ask Gu Qingjiu about her current location, but she guessed that he should already know.

Hu Yan escaped three weeks ago. If he could capture him in just one day, he would definitely know where Gu Qingjiu was.

With the Chief Instructor’s update, the two of them could finally feel more at ease.

After a while, two SUVs arrived at the parking area outside the police station.

A burly man dressed in black clothes and also adorned with a pair of dark sungla.s.ses alighted from one of the cars and entered the station. Glancing around twice, he immediately noticed Gu Qingjiu.

As the police officer near her observed the man, he felt that the man didn’t appear like a good person. The officer continuously glared at him.

Before the man in black could step forward, the officer stopped him.

“Hey, what are you trying to do? Show me your ident.i.ty card.”

Although the officer knew that no idiot would send himself straight to the police station after committing a crime, he still wanted to confirm that this man wasn’t one of them.

To play safe, the police officer decided to conduct a check first.

The man in black paused for a while before retrieving his ident.i.ty card from the pocket inside his suit. He didn’t appear to be resisting at all.

His appearance already attracted Gu Qingjiu’s attention.

She thought that man looked rather familiar.

He looked like one of the men that the Chief Instructor had sent to her house to rescue her.

However, it was just a hunch and didn’t want to confirm her suspicions.

The police officer looked at the man’s ident.i.ty card and found nothing amiss. He didn’t look like a wanted criminal either. Nevertheless, he still made a request. “Please remove your sungla.s.ses.”

‘Ha, why is this man even trying to act cool in a police station?’

The man in black complied.

After removing his sungla.s.ses, it revealed an icily stern look on his face. His square jaw, coupled with his burly build, made him appear to be more like a bad person.

However, there truly wasn’t anything wrong with him.

The police officer could only return to him his ident.i.ty card. “That’s all, bro.”

The man nodded. Keeping his ident.i.ty card, he put on his sungla.s.ses again and walked towards Gu Qingjiu.
