I Became the Demon King of Lust

Chapter 31: Police report

Xia Tian suddenly burst into the room that Ling Yue had been using and dropped a report down on the table.

Ling Yue looked at the report before looking up at him with a confused look and asking, "What is this?"

Xia Tian didn't give an answer and just mysteriously said, "Read it and you'll find out."

Ling Yue revealed an even more confused look, but she still picked up the report and read it.

She had a calm look on her face at first, but she couldn't help slightly knitting her brows after reading it.

Once she finished reading it, she put the folder down and sat there in silence.

Xia Tian just kept his eyes on her, waiting for her reaction.

After a long silence, Ling Yue said, "What happened to him? Is he alright?"

Xia Tian couldn't help being caught off guard by this response since it was one that he never expected. He then knitted his brows and said, "Didn't you read the report properly?"

Ling Yue just calmly said, "I've read it, that's why I'm asking this."

Xia Tian knitted his brows even more when he heard this, but he still said, "I called and they said that he was released without a problem."

Ling Yue let out a sigh of relief when she heard this, but that just went to making Xia Tian knit his brows even more, causing a big frown to appear on his face.

After a long moment of silence, he asked, "Why are you acting like this? Can't you see the bigger picture?"

Ling Yue looked at Xia Tian with a confused look before asking, "What do you mean bigger picture? All I see here is a dungeon accident report."

The report that Xia Tian had brought to her was the dungeon accident report for Lin Fan and Sasha.

This was the report that the guard captain had mentioned putting into the system.

This system was shared between the police and the Awakener Association just in case they needed to investigate matters in the dungeon. So the police would be able to access the reports that were made after any accidents in the dungeon like this.

Xia Tian had been suspicious of Lin Fan since the last matter, so he had asked a friend for a favour.

Now if anything related to Lin Fan reached their system, he would immediately get a notification.

After a long pause, Xia Tian said, "It's too much of a coincidence that two reports related to him came in after two days. It's clear that he must be involved in both this matter and the previous matter. Why can't you see this?"

The moment that Ling Yue heard this, she immediately knitted her brows.

She narrowed her eyes to look at Xia Tian before saying, "Why are you like this? Why do you keep insisting that he's guilty? No matter how you look at it, this boy is quite pitiful since he keeps getting involved in these kinds of incidents."

Xia Tian knitted his brows again when he heard this.

Then he slammed his hand on the table and said, "I'm going to revise the report right now. It's clear that he's the one who caused the incident."

The report that he was referring to was the report that they had submitted about the Wang Bing murder.

In the end, they could only report that it was fighting amongst themselves that had caused that matter. That was why Wang Bing and his followers had all died.

While they weren't happy about this since it seemed like this was just an easy way to tie up loose ends, they had no choice on this matter. It was either turn in the report or lose their jobs.

Plus, they had more than enough evidence to support this, so they were justified in doing this.

But they both felt that this crime was almost too perfect that it seemed like they were missing something.

That was why Xia Tian kept trying to prove Lin Fan guilty.

But Ling Yue didn't feel the same.

She slapped the table and said, "Xia Tian, is this all your sense of justice is worth? You would rather frame an innocent person than find the actual culprit?"

Xia Tian also slapped the table and said, "How can you still not see this? It's clear that he's the culprit!"

Ling Yue narrowed her eyes and moved right in front of Xia Tian before saying, "If you do this, I will do all that I can to go against you. I don't mind if we both get fired."

Xia Tian couldn't help trembling since he had never heard such a fierce tone from Ling Yue before. Even as childhood friends, he had never heard her take this tone with him.

When he heard it, he couldn't help feeling a tinge of pain in his heart.

So after a long silence, Xia Tian finally said with a sigh, "Alright, I'll go over the report again and see if I can find anything."

Without waiting for Ling Yue to reply, he quickly left the room.

He was afraid that if he said anything else, he would just make her angry and that was the last thing that he wanted.

But of course, in his mind…he still considered Lin Fan guilty.

Once Xia Tian was gone, Ling Yue also gave a sigh before picking up the report from the table.

She went over it again before putting it down with another sigh.

She couldn't help thinking of Lin Fan and how he had acted when she had seen him this morning.

In the past, Ling Yue had been in a similar place as Lin Fan, so she knew what he had been feeling.

That was why she had felt pity for him when she had met him and heard his story.

But for some reason that she couldn't understand, he had been on her mind the entire day.

It was as if there was something about him that drew her in.

She suddenly said, "Maybe I should go and check on him tomorrow…"
