"The police are looking for me?" Li Se was slightly surprised. He wondered why the police would find him at Yuanfeng Group, as he rarely visited this company.
Upon meeting the police officers, Li Se was stunned again. The officer who had come was an incredibly curvaceous and beautiful female police officer. However, her pretty face was devoid of any smile, exuding an icy coldness that made one hesitant to look directly at her.
Of course, Li Se didn't take it too seriously. He had encountered several such cold women before, and he had managed to conquer them, like Huang Shanshan and Xia Bingyun.
"You are Li Se?" Tang Xi asked indifferently.
"I am."
"Do you know this person?" Tang Xi produced a photograph and handed it to Li Se. The photo clearly showed Sima Liang, whom Li Se had incapacitated the previous day.
Li Se glanced at it and replied, "I wouldn't say I know him."
"It doesn't matter, you'll know him very well soon." Tang Xi proceeded to introduce Sima Liang's background. "The Sima family's business has expanded across the land, with assets totaling hundreds of billions. They recently arrived in Qingyun City, and unexpectedly, this incident occurred. The Sima family wants us to investigate the perpetrator. Yesterday, you visited the Paradise Club, and the surveillance footage shows that after you left Sima Liang's private room, he was incapacitated. His subordinates can attest to this."
She paused and continued, "Therefore, I request that you accompany us."
"Alright." Li Se didn't resist.
Zhang Aiming and Chen Ping looked worried. Li Se smiled, "Don't worry, nothing will happen."
Upon arriving at the police station, Li Se was directly taken to the interrogation room. The interrogator was, naturally, Tang Xi.
After some basic questions, Tang Xi leaned back, her beautiful eyes holding a peculiar glint. "You have quite a bit of nerve, daring to cripple someone from the Sima family. Now, the head of the Sima family has vowed to see you imprisoned for life, and the evidence is conclusive."
"Since the evidence is conclusive, what else do you need to ask?" Li Se said calmly.
Tang Xi leaned forward, resting her hands on the table.
"I examined Sima Liang's wounds. His chest and male functions have been completely destroyed. Especially his chest, there are footprints, though not very deep. Yet, under these circumstances, his chest bones and fists were shattered. Don't you find that interesting?" Tang Xi asked with a half-smile.
Li Se felt a shiver down his spine at Tang Xi's smile and couldn't help but ask, "What are you trying to imply?"
"Heh, from what I know, only one type of person can achieve this..." Tang Xi slowly stood up, walking as she spoke. "That is someone who has cultivated Qigong. I wonder if you fall into that category?"
"Officer Tang, obviously, I don't," Li Se shook his head.
But before he finished speaking, a palm strike, like a blade, came slashing towards him. It was Tang Xi's move, swift and sudden enough to catch many off guard.
Li Se immediately dodged backward, narrowly avoiding her palm strike. He said with some anger, "Officer Tang, if I hadn't dodged, this palm of yours could have put me in the hospital!"
"Heh, I was just testing you. Not many people can dodge my palm," Tang Xi sneered.
"If I were truly an ordinary person and couldn't dodge this palm?" Li Se said sternly.
Tang Xi paused for a moment, then replied, "Then you could only consider yourself unlucky!"
"Is this how you conduct an interrogation?" Li Se felt a surge of anger. If he were truly an ordinary person and couldn't dodge that palm, the force behind it would have required a long recovery.
"But you dodged it, which only proves that Sima Liang was incapacitated by you." Tang Xi didn't care about anything else; she only cared about the outcome.
"I need to make a phone call." Li Se didn't want to continue talking with Tang Xi. He took out his phone and called Tian Anming.
When Tian Anming learned of the matter, he rushed over immediately. However, upon seeing Tang Xi, he felt a headache coming on.
"Director Tian, why are you here?" Tang Xi frowned.
"Little Tang, what happened?" Tian Anming seemed somewhat apprehensive of Tang Xi.
"It's nothing, just that this kid incapacitated a direct descendant of the Sima family. The Sima family wants us to thoroughly investigate this case and bring the perpetrator to justice," Tang Xi explained.
"Is there evidence for this?" Tian Anming asked.
Tang Xi nodded, "There is. Moreover, I have already tested him, and it was this kid who made the move!"
Tian Anming, a seasoned veteran, caught some subtle details. He chuckled, "So, there's no concrete evidence. The situation is like this: Divine Doctor Li has an unusual identity. He's not just an ordinary TCM practitioner; he's also a royal physician, highly regarded by the Secretary. So, Little Tang, you shouldn't act so rashly in the future. Without irrefutable evidence, you can't easily convict someone."
Tang Xi's expression changed upon hearing this. She looked at Li Se with disbelief. This guy was actually a royal physician? That was a bit troublesome.
Li Se noticed Tang Xi's unconvinced gaze and shrugged, "I didn't want to, they asked me to be a royal physician."
With that, he stood up and left with Tian Anming.
Behind them, Tang Xi gritted her teeth and clenched her fists, "No matter who you are, if you commit a crime, I will bring you to justice!"
After leaving the police station, Tian Anming said with a wry smile, "Divine Doctor Li, why did you incapacitate someone from the Sima family?"
In front of Tian Anming, Li Se had no reason to hide anything. He recounted what had happened the previous day.
Tian Anming was also furious upon hearing this. "This Sima Liang, relying on his family's wealth, commits such bullying and oppressive acts. He deserved what he got!"
"Director Tian, what is Tang Xi's background?" Li Se asked curiously. He had clearly sensed that Tian Anming seemed somewhat wary of Tang Xi's identity.
"Her? She's just from an enforcement department. However, I can't manage that department, and they can't manage us. They mainly deal with special individuals. The main thing is that Tang Xi is backed by the Tang family. The Tang family has great influence, with their main branch in the capital. Although she's from a branch, she's still quite troublesome. If she sets her sights on you, I can't stop her," Tian Anming said with some helplessness.
Li Se also felt a sense of helplessness upon hearing this. How did he end up offending such a woman?
Meanwhile, in a luxurious hospital room.
Sima Liang lay on the hospital bed, bandaged like a mummy.
Several other people were in the room. Among them was a man with a stern face and an aura of authority. He glanced at Sima Liang on the bed, his expression extremely grim. "Has that person been apprehended?"
"Master, he has been caught and is being interrogated," his secretary replied.
The man angrily said, "Still interrogating? Arrest him! I want him to rot in prison. Also, make arrangements; I want to act within the prison!"
The secretary was about to nod when he received a phone call, and his expression changed. "Master, that kid has already been released."
"What?!" The man's face grew even grimmer. After a long while, he spoke word by word, "Very well, very well. Since that's the case, I'll handle it personally!"
