Your Boss Made You Wear That?

Just then, the interrogation room door opened.

The female officer came back in, sat down, and looked at Qin Feng.

"Also, you must cooperate with us and hand over that mutant creature!"

Pikachu was Qin Feng's trump card, and under these circumstances, there was no way he would hand him over.

His current predicament had nothing to do with whether he handed over Pikachu.

If they wanted to frame him, they would find an excuse!

"I don't know what mutant creature you're talking about."

Ye Chen smiled.

"Qin Feng, this is the Security Bureau. Do you think you can do whatever you want here?"

Then he turned to the female officer and said,

"I saw him release the monster from a red ball earlier. You can search him and see if he has it on him."

Qin Feng gave a disdainful chuckle at Ye Chen's words.

His reasoning was sound, but Qin Feng had his trusty system backing him up.

Before the first search, he had already tossed the Poké Ball into his system inventory.

The female officer approached Qin Feng again.

"Will you hand it over yourself, or do we have to make you?"

The impatience and threat in her words were unmistakable.

Just then, the interrogation room door was kicked open with a bang.

A grim-faced middle-aged man walked in with his hands behind his back.

Ye Chen's face lit up, and he immediately stepped forward.

"Uncle Li."

The female officer greeted him respectfully as well. "Director!"

This was the man Ye Chen had called earlier.

Strangely, however, he ignored them both without even sparing them a glance.

He stared straight at Qin Feng and said gravely,

"Mr. Qin Feng, you're free to go."

"Remove his handcuffs."

The female officer looked as though she had seen a ghost. She thought she must have misheard.

The director himself had told them to teach this Qin Feng kid a lesson.

How had things changed so quickly?

"Director, are we really taking them off? These are serious charges!" Still unable to believe it, the female officer reminded him.

Director Li answered by backhanding her across the face.

Stars flashed before her eyes, and a thousand curses and ten thousand raging beasts stampeded through her mind.

Who the fuck did I offend?

So I get screwed either way?

"These are orders from above. Are you planning to defy them?"

"I'll deal with your abuse of authority later!"

Director Li's words struck like a thunderbolt out of a clear sky, shocking everyone once again.

The female officer stood by the door, her face ashen.

The meaning behind the director's words was obvious.

He wanted to wash his hands of the whole affair.

As his subordinate, she could only take the fall!

Ye Chen froze, then turned toward her and roared,

"What? He's free to go?"

"With crimes this serious, why are you letting him go?"

Qin Feng was just as confused.

Did Jiang Xiaoyu help me?

As far as he could remember, he had no relatives with that kind of influence.

His roommates, Wang Lin and Deng Jialiang, were even less likely candidates.

Seeing Director Li ignore him and go out of his way to distance himself from the matter,

Ye Chen looked utterly livid!

The phone creaked in his tightening grip.

The female officer stepped forward and unlocked Qin Feng's handcuffs.

"Mr. Qin, we sincerely apologize for the trouble caused by our earlier negligence!"

Qin Feng had clearly not adjusted to her complete change in attitude.

Still, he did not yet understand the situation, so it was best not to stir up more trouble.

He left the interrogation room and found two beautiful young women waiting in the Security Bureau's lobby.

Qin Feng recognized Jiang Xiaoyu at once.

It really was her!

"Qin Feng, did they torture you to force a confession?" Jiang Xiaoyu asked with concern.

"Uh... let's just say they almost did. Thank you, Xiaoyu!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Xiaoyu pulled Bai Xiyue over from beside her.

"She's the one you should thank. It's all thanks to her help."

Completely baffled, Qin Feng shifted his gaze to her.

A goddess!

Both her looks and her bearing were worthy of the title.

But he was absolutely certain he did not know this girl.

"Hello, my name is Bai Xiyue!"

Just then, Ye Chen came out as well.

When he saw Jiang Xiaoyu, his dark expression turned pale.

His back teeth ground together audibly.

So it was you, Jiang Xiaoyu. Those two bastards really do have something going on.

Still, he forced a faint smile and said,

"Oh, isn't this Xiaoyu? What a coincidence, running into you here!"

The smile on Jiang Xiaoyu's face instantly vanished.

But she did not acknowledge Ye Chen.

Ye Chen walked up to Qin Feng and said in a low voice,

"You got damn lucky this time, but don't celebrate too soon. I'll find the evidence."

Bai Xiyue gave a disdainful sneer at his words.

"The Jiangning Ye Group?"

Ye Chen shifted his gaze and carefully looked Bai Xiyue over.

"You know who I am, beautiful?"

"Yes, I'm with the Jiangning Ye Group."

He had initially assumed this beauty was using the opportunity to strike up a conversation with him.

After all, as a handsome, wealthy young heir, he had no shortage of women trying to get close to him.

Instead, Bai Xiyue shook her head slightly.

"I have no need to know some spoiled heir from such a tiny company."

Her words instantly shattered Ye Chen's sense of superiority.

"What did you say?"

Bai Xiyue rolled her eyes, then turned to Qin Feng.

"Don't worry. I've already had Jigglypuff's genetic material sent to an authoritative institution for testing. Once the results are back, everything will be fine!"

Ye Chen sneered and continued,

"The Ye Group is the largest publicly listed company in Jiangning. Are you trying to get my attention this way?"

"With your looks, beautiful, there's no need for that. You could be more direct. It might work better."

Just then, the two officers who had interrogated Qin Feng came over behind Director Li.

"Our sincerest apologies, Miss Bai. Our superiors have already reprimanded us for our handling of the case."

"We hope you won't pursue the matter."

Ye Chen immediately protested. "Uncle Li, why are you letting him go? We could easily get him sentenced to eight or ten years."

Director Li looked at Ye Chen and sneered.

"Since you call me Uncle Li, I'll discipline you on your father's behalf."

With that,

a crisp slap rang out.

The blow landed on Ye Chen's face, sending him stumbling several steps backward.

He stared at Director Li in disbelief.

"You dare hit me?"

Never in his life had Ye Chen suffered such humiliation.

He lunged forward as he spoke.

The two officers behind Director Li immediately stepped up and restrained him.

With his bodyguards absent, Ye Chen could only spew a stream of trash talk.

"Just you wait! I'll make you all pay!"

Director Li turned to Bai Xiyue again. "Please forgive us, Miss Bai!"

Everyone present was wondering who this woman named Bai really was.

Even Jiang Xiaoyu had only heard her make a single phone call on their way over.

And just like that, the entire situation had turned around.

Bai Xiyue paid them no mind. She simply turned to Qin Feng with a smile.

"Mr. Qin, could you take me to buy a Pokémon now?"

Half an hour later.

The eye-catching Bugatti appeared at Jiangning University once again.

Qin Feng, who had arrived ahead of them in a police car, was already waiting at the entrance.

When the two stunning beauties got out, the surrounding crowd erupted into chatter again.

"Huh... isn't the girl with the high ponytail Jiang Xiaoyu, the campus belle? Two beauties riding in the same car-please turn me into a seat cushion, God!"

"They seem to be heading to that pet shop!"

"Isn't that guy the one from the video? Cute pets really do win people over. I want one too."

Qin Feng made a gentlemanly gesture toward the entrance. "Welcome to my little shop."

Bai Xiyue looked around Pokémon Home curiously.

Still wearing her maid outfit and professional smile, Changpu greeted them.

"Welcome to Pokémon Home. I'm Changpu, a shop assistant. If you need anything, I'd be happy to help!"

Bai Xiyue looked Changpu up and down and asked in surprise,

"Your boss made you wear that?"

Then she gave Qin Feng a strange look.

Qin Feng's face instantly flushed red.

The fucking system did this. It has nothing to do with me.

Sure, I like looking too, but I only watch that stuff on Bilibili in secret.

Before Qin Feng could speak, however, Changpu replied,

"Yes, he did!"

Qin Feng's respectable image crumbled in an instant.

"Hah. Men are all filthy perverts," Jiang Xiaoyu grumbled.

Bai Xiyue gave him a knowing look.

"I'd like to buy a Pokémon. Could you explain how it works?"

Utterly mortified, Qin Feng wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and sat off to the side to watch Changpu handle things.

Changpu professionally explained the drawing machine and the prices of Poké Balls.

"Which option would you like to choose, miss?"
