But inexplicably...
It feels inappropriate not to say it.
Like I’m making a mistake!
"It’s okay."
Lin Beichen knew that he was just being polite; he couldn’t really disagree.
Qian Yi didn’t dare delay even for a second. He immediately walked out of the interrogation room, then went to the monitoring room, copied the surveillance footage of the interrogation room and recorded it on his phone, and then arrived at the office of the captain of the Criminal Investigation Unit, Li Kaoming.
When Li Kaoming saw him coming, he asked, "Qian, do you need something?"
"Captain, it’s a big deal!"
Qian Yi, with a anxious and serious expression, placed the copied video USB drive on the table, then fiddled with his phone, asking in a deep voice, "Do you believe that someone in this world can control thunder, perform Palm Thunder, and use a sword to command thunder?"
"?"
Li Kaoming was dumbfounded. What happened to this team captain of his? Is he sick? Did he lose his mind? Why is he suddenly talking nonsense?
Is there any need to ask such a question?
Isn’t this just nonsense?
He looked at Qian Yi with a worried expression, softly saying, "Qian, is the recent case with the foreign organization too difficult? Are you under too much pressure? How about I give you a few days off to rest at home?"
"Captain, I know you don’t believe it."
Qian Yi didn’t expect Li Kaoming to believe him either. Just then, he brought up the interrogation room surveillance video, and directly placed his phone in front of Li Kaoming: "But, take a look at this."
Li Kaoming subconsciously looked at the phone while listening to Qian Yi continue, "I didn’t believe it either, but he really did it right in front of my eyes. Everything I said is true."
Upon hearing this, under his watchful gaze.
The surveillance video showed Lin Beichen spreading his hands, with two balls of thunder suddenly appearing in his palms.
"?!?!"
Li Kaoming trembled all over, his sight completely attracted by the two thunderballs, unable to look away. His expression was no better than Qian Yi’s when he saw this on site.
What the hell did I just watch?!
If the scene in the video wasn’t in the headquarters’ interrogation room, and if Qian Yi weren’t there to testify and explain,
even if he saw the video with his own eyes...
he would still suspect that the content inside was synthesized with technology!
"..."
Silence.
The captain’s office was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
After a while, Li Kaoming gradually collected himself, laboriously moving his gaze from the video to look at Qian Yi, confirming, "Is this video real?"
"It’s real!"
"You saw it with your own eyes?"
"I saw it with my own eyes!"
"Is there any possibility of tricks?"
"No possibility at all!"
Qian Yi tirelessly answered his questions. He understood perfectly Li Kaoming’s current mental state. Wasn’t he doubting himself just now too?
Li Kaoming: ...
He fell silent again.
Not knowing what to say.
After a long time.
Li Kaoming managed to pull himself together, asking again, "Who is he?"
"Lin Beichen."
Qian Yi went on to give a brief introduction of Lin Beichen’s identity and background, then quickly asked, "Captain, he’s still in the interrogation room. What should we do?"
"This matter is beyond my decision-making scope."
Li Kaoming shook his head. After thinking for a moment, he picked up the USB drive on the table and continued, "Qian, first get someone to move Lin Beichen to the lounge. Sitting in the interrogation room is not appropriate. Then quickly organize Lin Beichen’s information. I’m going to report to the director. Only the director can make a decision on this."
"Yes, sir!"
Qian Yi knew what he had to do. He saluted, then quickly carried out his instructions.
Shortly, Lin Beichen’s dossier was delivered to Li Kaoming’s desk.
Without any delay,
Li Kaoming took the USB drive and Lin Beichen’s dossier to see the director.
The director of the Imperial Capital Police Headquarters, Zheng Guoliang, was over sixty years old, with mostly gray hair, slightly overweight, but with an imposing presence that could exert a strong sense of oppression.
After a few simple exchanges,
Li Kaoming inserted the USB drive into the computer, played the video for Zheng Guoliang, and placed Lin Beichen’s dossier in front of him.
When Lin Beichen’s palms suddenly produced thunderballs,
even the director couldn’t help but widen his eyes in shock, completely incredulous.
"Someone can control thunder?"
"Is this a superpower?!"
Yet, as the director of the headquarters,
having faced numerous significant events,
his psychological resilience was far stronger than ordinary people’s.
He quickly gathered himself, turned to look at Li Kaoming, and pointed to the screen, asking, "Is all this real?"
"It’s real."
Li Kaoming eagerly nodded, saying, "Yes, director, the dossier beside you is about him. His name is Lin Beichen. He’s now in our lounge. What should we do?"
"What should we do?"
Zheng Guoliang smiled wryly and shook his head.
The different levels of authority naturally came with different perspectives on problems.
Being able to control thunder...
This kind of person has appeared.
It’s beyond the decision-making scope of an individual or a local police department. This matter has risen to the national level!
There was no hesitation.
He immediately ordered, "Seal off the information. Anyone who knows about this or is related to this matter must sign a confidentiality agreement immediately!"
"Yes, sir!"
Li Kaoming saluted, then asked, "And Lin Beichen..."
Zheng Guoliang had already picked up the desk phone, dialing while saying, "As for Lin Beichen, we’ll decide after I report this."
The director also needs to report?
Li Kaoming was stunned. If the director needs to report, then who...
He realized,
this issue has already risen to the national level?!
