Yunhai City Public Security Bureau, interrogation room.
Two female police officers sat behind the table and opened their notebooks.

She had already finished taking the other girl's statement, and the girl had been taken away by her family, who had rushed over.

A police officer came trotting over and handed her a report.
"Thank you."
Qi Pingxia accepted it and opened it to read.
