Chapter 216: Chapter 216: Did Mom Call Me to Eat? (Part 2)
"Big sister with the big chest?" Lin Xi was taken aback and asked in confusion.
The ones who burst through the door were Zhou Yan and her two colleagues.
Seeing Lin Xi, Zhou Yan was also startled, and couldn’t help but wonder, "Why is this shameless guy here?"
The two policemen beside Zhou Yan, however, were incredibly tense.
In front of them seemed to be two groups, each with at least a dozen people, and they all looked like desperados.
Before coming in, they had been informed that the ones possibly involved in the fight were people from the Celestial Alliance.
As police officers, the Celestial Alliance was no stranger to them; they even knew how cruel and vengeful they were. Yet after every incident, they’re unable to find any evidence, instead being reported to higher-ups by the Celestial Alliance.
After several failed operations, their chief had been severely reprimanded several times, and when the chief got scolded, they naturally got the brunt of his frustration as well, so they both hated and felt helpless against the Celestial Alliance.
Wenhai was not unfamiliar to them, a member of the Celestial Alliance, and held a certain status.
If this time they failed to find any evidence, ending up accused of kicking the bar’s door for no reason while threatening lives with guns, the dire consequences were predictable.
"Sigh!"
The two exchanged a glance; the atmosphere in the bar seemed rather harmonious.
If it hadn’t been for the restaurant owner walking away immediately after speaking, they would’ve surely found trouble with him. Where is he? What happened to the students he mentioned? Wasn’t it said they were beaten half to death?
Zhou Yan also noticed something was off, but she quickly pinpointed it, pointed at Xu Hong, and asked, "What’s going on with you? What’s going on with your bar? And the door? And all of you gathering here, are you planning a gang fight?"
At her question, the two policemen beside her had their eyes lit up.
Not mentioning how Xu Hong looked severely injured, his gang and the Celestial Alliance members all had more or less injuries, which was solid evidence, unable to be wiped away in a short time.
Furthermore, what about the broken tables and chairs, and the huge human-shaped cavity at the back door?
With just these, they had a good excuse for breaking in with guns.
Xu Hong and Wenhai, both having been in the underworld for years, were used to handling such matters. Xu Hong, as the bar owner, laughed and said,
"Officer Zhou, I’ve been friends with Wenhai for years, we were just having a friendly spar!"
"Brother Hong is absolutely right, I haven’t seen him in years, and couldn’t hold back my itch to spar a bit too forcefully!" Wenhai also laughed, his expression extremely sincere.
Zhou Yan was quite well-known in this area; almost everyone in this line of work, regularly dealing with these matters, knew of her as an extremely capable and fierce female officer.
If they deliberately concealed the truth, it would surely be seen through.

"Yeah, right!" Zhou Yan cursed under her breath.
But since neither side admitted anything and were coordinating so well, she had no choice but to look at Lin Xi and glance at Gu Xiaoxian behind him, asking in confusion, "What are you doing here?"
"Someone just called the police, saying a pair of students were being beaten almost to death?"
"Is it you two they’re talking about?"
"..." Lin Xi guessed that it was likely someone from the restaurant worried about them, "No, we were just drinking here and fortunately witnessed a friendly sparring match!"
"Lucky you!"
Zhou Yan was considering breaking through Lin Xi, after all, they had a certain ’connection,’ he should presumably help her out, but unexpectedly, he not only didn’t cooperate but also covered for the two groups, which made her quite angry.
However, she wouldn’t give up so easily, just about to ask again when Lin Xi suddenly spoke up, "Did mom ask me to have dinner?"
