The Willful Young Lady

On that day, due to the bus hijacking incident, Fang Li and Aria were unable to attend class and were directly summoned to the Academic Affairs Office to explain the process of resolving the incident.

Moreover, they are separated and explained individually.

This is a measure to prevent armed police officers from providing false statements due to favoritism for some reason when handling cases.

When there are two or more armed detectives involved in resolving a case, the subsequent explanations will be conducted in this manner, and the process will only end once it is confirmed that the two testimonies are completely consistent.

After that, of course, it's time to collect the payment.

For such unexpected events, the person who perfectly resolves the situation can often receive a very considerable reward.

Therefore, by the time all the procedures were completed, it was already evening.

When Fang Li came out of the Armed Detective High School and returned to his room, an unexpected Matoba unfolded before him.

"So slow!"

Aria, who was sitting on the sofa in the living room tidying her hair, immediately said something.

"I've been waiting for you for half an hour!"

Upon hearing this, Fang Li narrowed his eyes, looked at Aria sitting there with a dissatisfied expression, and sighed, "At a time like this, should I first ask you why you are in my room?"

"Does this kind of thing really need explaining?" Aria raised an eyebrow and said, "As my partner, you should be able to figure this out yourself."

And you're still trying to deduce things...

Anyway, they must have found out my room number beforehand and then asked the Equipment Department to copy my Key Card, right?

Fang Li only learned by chance that some people in the Equipment Department provide special services, such as copying other people's house keys.

And without a doubt, this behavior already falls into the category of illegal intrusion.

Unfortunately, in the Armed Detective High School, which is already a gathering place for a group of abnormal people, this kind of thing is just normal, which is truly sad.

So, Fang Li only asked this one question.

"So, what brings you to my room?"

"Nothing much, I just wanted to come and see." Aria lay on the sofa, crossed her little feet, and said casually as she swung them around. "Anyway, you're my partner, so it's no problem."

Which country's theory is this from?

Yes, I am your partner, but not your husband. I have no obligation to let you come and go in the room as you please, right?

Fang Li really wanted to say that, but seeing Aria's casual attitude as if this place was her own home, he could only sigh deeply.

When they first met, Aria gave Fang Li the impression of being a very heroic and valiant armed detective. Her decisive attitude and resolute style made people feel Aria's strength.

That's a kind of inner strength.

Therefore, Fang Li always thought that Aria was a heroine.

In fact, when Fang Li was collecting information about Aria before, he had heard that this girl seemed to be a very mature, calm, and handsome senior in the eyes of the first-year students.

However, after becoming Aria's partner, Fang Li discovered that this girl often showed a rather willful and stubborn side when facing acquaintances.

That's Aria's truest self, isn't it?

After all, this girl blushes rapidly when Fang Li hugs Fang Li, and her excessive effort when asking Fang Li to be her partner gives her a willful feeling, just like an innocent young lady from a wealthy family.

Well, that's not wrong.

As a descendant of a famous England noble family, Aria was indeed a wealthy and privileged young lady.

"Hmph hmph hmph~~~"

Look, this young lady seems to be in a strangely good mood again. As she swings her legs more and more, she even starts humming a song.

Although, from Fang Li's perspective, this young lady, lying on the sofa so unguarded, swinging her little feet, had almost completely exposed the beautiful scenery under her skirt, which was somewhat inappropriate.

Fang Li shrugged helplessly, tossed his backpack onto the sofa, turned around, and opened the refrigerator in the corner of the living room.

Would you like something to drink?

Do you have coffee?

"Yes, but it's iced."

"Then I don't want it, just give me a peach-flavored drink."

Ideally, that kind of drink would be available.

Fang Li rolled his eyes, took a bottle of juice from the refrigerator, tossed it to Aria, and opened a frozen beer for himself.

"You actually drink alcohol?" Aria asked, holding her juice bottle in utter surprise. "Aren't students prohibited from drinking alcohol in this country?"

"There's no such rule in China. I'm an international student, so it's fine." Fang Li also displayed a certain degree of willfulness with his own theory. While drinking his ice-cold beer, he said to Aria, "Since you're here, why don't you tell me what the results of the investigation into this morning's incident were?"

Fang Li has not yet checked the results of the investigation into the incident.

However, it seems that Aria had been tracking the culprit behind the scenes for a long time, and this incident was also due to the interception of the culprit's usual radio waves.

Therefore, Aria must have already checked the results of the subsequent investigation.

"After that, the Metropolitan Police Department found a hotel room that the suspect had used, but the accommodation records had been altered from the outside, and the suspect had not left any clues."

Aria had indeed checked the investigation results and began her explanation without any pause.

"The on-site investigation also yielded no useful clues. According to the report, the vehicles loaded with submachine guns were all stolen goods, some of which did not even have a manufacturing record. It can be said that there was not a single flaw in their evidence."

"I think so too." Fang Li twirled the beer can in his hand and said, "In this incident, the perpetrator is unlikely to have left any evidence."

"Oh?" Aria asked curiously, "Why are you so sure?"

"Because this kind of incident is beyond what mere copycats could cause," Fang Li said indifferently, taking a sip of beer.

"The criminal is the Armed Detective Killer, and it's the real deal."

"The Armed Detective Killer was previously reported to have been arrested was probably framed."

When those words came from Fang Li's mouth, Aria's pretty face froze instantly.

Immediately, Aria lowered her head, her small hands clenched tightly, and her frail shoulders began to tremble slightly.

Immediately afterwards, Fang Li saw it.

Tears began to slide down Aria's face.
