Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder Suddenly Made a Comeback!-Chapter 712 This is definitely not reliable!

"Exactly, exactly." Wen Jiaojiao said discontentedly, her arms crossed. "If you still don’t believe it, you can dig up Lili’s previous live streams and see for yourself. There’s plenty of evidence online, and the victim is her own uncle. She can’t possibly deceive her own uncle, can she?"

Hearing her name mentioned, Jiang Mingyu, who had been shrinking in the corner of the sofa, hurriedly looked up and nodded slightly.

The female police officer next to her also nodded. "Yes, yes, Miss Jiang is very famous online. She has over twenty million followers on Weibo, and her uncle used to be a big star too!"

Who would have thought that Jiang Tienshen, who had disappeared from the circle nearly ten years ago, would suddenly appear in their police station!

Although their claims were bizarre, Captain Xing had to accept reality.

Furthermore, Lili’s resume was exceptionally impressive, even including a government-issued medal of honor.

All of this combined made him start admiring the girl in front of him.

Upon hearing the news, Ji Yanbai also arrived at the station immediately. Seeing Captain Xing at the entrance, both were momentarily stunned.

"Why are you here?"

Ji Yanbai took a glance at the seated Lili and said expressionlessly, "Didn’t I tell you before? I’m working as a bodyguard for someone, Miss Jiang!"

Then, Ji Yanbai turned to Lili and explained, "Captain Xing was a good friend of mine in the army. When you asked me to secretly protect Fu Xiaoxiao, it was him I coordinated with."

Lili smiled and said, "I see, it seems that we are all quite fated. So now, Captain Xing, you believe me now, right?"

Captain Xing was shocked.

So, Lili was the one who helped Ji Yanbai repay tens of millions in debt and even paid him a salary of twenty thousand a month—she was the rich woman!

He had originally thought Ji Yanbai was committing himself to some wealthy and formidable lady.

It turned out to be just a young girl.

Are young girls so capable now?

Captain Xing was quite moved and also came to a realization—

She was so wealthy; she had no reason to steal money.

Now that they had physical evidence and personal testimony, it would be impolite to detain them any longer. He immediately raised his hand and said, "Sorry, Miss Jiang, there has been a misunderstanding. You can sign here, and then you are free to go."

"Furthermore, we’ve audited the criminals’ financial records and found nearly a million in cash, which you all can take with you today. The rest of the money will be returned to you once we have recorded it."

"Thank you, Captain Xing. You all have worked hard."

Lili then prepared to leave with Wen Jiaojiao.

However, just as they were about to step out of the police station, Captain Xing’s voice rang out again.

"Um... Miss Jiang..." He hurried out, blocking Lili. "Could I please add your contact information?"

Ji Yanbai furrowed his brows, and Wen Jiaojiao crossed her arms.

"Hey, aren’t you a police officer? How could you use your position to hit on our Lili?!"

Captain Xing opened and closed his mouth and quickly explained.

"That’s not what I meant. I think Miss Jiang is very capable and talented. If we ever encountered an unsolvable case in the future, we might consult Miss Jiang."

Ji Yanbai simply said, "I’ll send you her contact details later; no need to come over specially."

With that, he escorted Lili away.

Captain Xing stood there, speechless.

Did he say something wrong?

...

After getting into the car, Lili looked at Jiang Mingyu sitting in the back.

"Going home now?"

Jiang Mingyu instantly sat upright and stuttered, "Now, right now?"

"What else?"

"There’s just something so sudden about this, I’m not ready yet."

Jiang Li chided, "When will you be ready then?"

Jiang Mingyu spoke softly, "Actually, I was planning to return home before the New Year, use this money to find a job here and settle down first. That way, when I go back, I’d have a solid explanation, but... but..."

But such an unexpected event had completely disrupted his plans.

Jiang Li pondered for a moment and sighed.

Her uncle had always been introverted by nature, and pressuring him would only make matters worse.

"Here’s what we’ll do, my grandfather’s birthday is coming up, and my mom and I have been busy with the preparations lately. Since you’re free, why don’t you help us out? It’ll be perfect for you to return when Grandpa is celebrating his birthday, and he won’t have any complaints."

Jiang Mingyu thought it over.

The old man’s birthday was next month, not too urgent, just right.

"So, should we go with that plan?"

"Yes, I’ll find a house for you later. Until then, just stay there peacefully, and try not to interact with strangers."

Jiang Mingyu: "...."

Why did it sound like Jiang Li was the younger one here?

Seeing Jiang Mingyu’s reluctance, Jiang Li added, "Have you forgotten? I’ve told you, this year you’re offending ’Tai Sui’ and might attract villains. Keeping you from contacting people is for your own good. Do you want to experience what happened today again?"

"I, I haven’t only met villains though...." Jiang Mingyu shrank his neck, "Mr. Zhao I met before was really nice."

"That Mr. Zhao who you saved abroad and gave you this money?"

"Yes."

Jiang Li frowned, feeling that something was off.

No matter how wealthy, it’s not normal to just hand out five million in cash so casually and even take such good care of her uncle.

Adhering to the principle of staying guarded, Jiang Li continued to inquire.

"What’s his name? Where does he live?"

"That...." Jiang Mingyu’s voice grew even softer, "I’m not too sure...."

Even if Wen Jiaojiao had an idol’s bias, she shook her head in shock at this moment.

"No way, Jiang Tianshen, you accepted the money without even knowing his full name?"

"He insisted on giving it to me...."

Wen Jiaojiao looked towards Jiang Li, "Lili, this money... it’s not from an unclear source, right?"

Jiang Li: "...."

It wasn’t impossible.

"Do you have any other information about him?"

"I do." Jiang Mingyu quickly took out his old mobile phone, "I have his contact. He gave it to me previously and told me to call him if I ever faced any difficulties. I called once; it was valid, and he indeed helped me."

Jiang Li had Ji Yanbai pull the car over to the roadside, then walked out to find a public phone to try the number.

The phone rang twice before it was answered.

Before the other person could speak, Jiang Li took the initiative, "Is this Mr. Gu? I’m the niece of the man who saved you previously. I heard you’ve given him a substantial sum to show your gratitude, and we appreciate your generosity. However, the amount is too excessive, and we’re ready to return it to you. Could you please provide me your bank card number?"

However, before she could finish speaking, the other person hung up with a "snap".

As Jiang Li frowned, thinking about how rude that was, a familiar voice suddenly reached her ears—

"What a coincidence, Miss Jiang. So you are the niece of my lifesaver."
