Top Grade Pure Beauty CEO

Zhu Xiaoyue was working on a case, a serial kidnapping case.

Every victim was a young woman, and just last week, another woman had been abducted.

After reviewing the surveillance footage, Zhu Xiaoyue discovered that the kidnapped woman was forcefully taken away by a van at the subway exit.

Before the woman was abducted, she had seen a man at the subway entrance who had given her a particularly large doll.

Not long after the man left, the woman holding the doll was kidnapped.

Instinct told Zhu Xiaoyue that there was something very wrong with this man.

She investigated the man’s identity and learned that his name was Liu Ming, a non-local who used to be a bricklayer at a construction site in Ling City, but for some unknown reason had stopped working, and till today when Zhu Xiaoyue came looking for him, he was still unemployed.

Zhu Xiaoyue walked through an alley and looked up to see the house right in front of her.

"Knock knock knock~" Zhu Xiaoyue knocked on the door, and soon a man’s voice sounded from inside.

"Who’s there?"

Zhu Xiaoyue said, "Police, I need your assistance with an investigation."

There was no sound from inside, Zhu Xiaoyue pressed her ear against the door for a while, frowned, and called out, "Mr. Liu, please open the door."

"Cough cough." A few coughs came from inside, followed by footsteps approaching, and the door opened. Liu Ming stood at the doorway, glanced at Zhu Xiaoyue, and asked with a bewildered face, "Officer, how can I help you?"

Zhu Xiaoyue quickly sized up Liu Ming. He was wearing a set of pajamas, his eyes bleary, obviously just woken up.

Moreover, she had been observing Liu Ming closely since he began speaking and noticed the tone of his voice, his look of confusion, as if he truly knew nothing.

Zhu Xiaoyue walked into the house, which was in disarray. She found a chair to sit down on and asked, "Do you know Xiao Yu?"

Liu Ming nodded, "I’ve seen her a few times."

Zhu Xiaoyue asked, "How did you get to know Xiao Yu? What is your relationship?"

Liu Ming seemed slightly embarrassed, and after a while, he responded, "Met at a bar, stayed together twice."

Zhu Xiaoyue was taken aback for a moment, then realized that the two must have had some kind of relationship.

Seeing that she was silent, Liu Ming hurriedly asked, "Officer, what happened to Xiao Yu?"

Zhu Xiaoyue stared at him and said, "She’s been kidnapped."

Liu Ming exclaimed in surprise, "Kidnapped!"

Zhu Xiaoyue was certain that this man genuinely did not know about Xiao Yu’s kidnapping. She stood up and said, "Come back with me and tell me everything you know."

Liu Ming nodded repeatedly, "Okay, but I need to change my clothes first. Officer, wait for me here for a moment."

Zhu Xiaoyue glanced at the room and said, "I’ll wait for you outside."

Just as Zhu Xiaoyue was about to step out of the front door, she suddenly felt a gust of wind behind her head. She instinctively tried to dodge but still didn’t manage to avoid it.

Before losing consciousness, Zhu Xiaoyue saw Liu Ming standing behind her with a stick in his hand, his face expressionless.

After knocking Zhu Xiaoyue unconscious, Liu Ming put down the stick and sneered, "Not bad-looking; she should fetch a good price. But before I sell her, I’ll have a good time first."

Liu Ming stooped to lift Zhu Xiaoyue, and as he turned to enter the room, a voice suddenly came from outside the door.

"Assaulting a police officer, eh? You’ve got quite the nerve."

Liu Ming’s body instantly tensed up; he put down Zhu Xiaoyue, and wrapped his arm around her neck, turning to face the front door.

Two men stood in the doorway, one of whom was Li Xiaoyao.

Liu Ming’s pupils shrank; he had not expected Li Xiaoyao to actually show up at his door.

Liu Ming tightened his grip around Zhu Xiaoyue’s neck and bellowed, "Don’t come any closer, or I’ll kill her."

Li Xiaoyao smirked, clearly unconcerned by Liu Ming’s threat, and said, "Go ahead and kill her if you want; after all, the one who will be killing a cop is you, not me."

Liu Ming’s eyes darted around as he asked, "Why are you in my house?"

Li Xiaoyao cursed, "Don’t play dumb with me; just tell me, where have you hidden Zhuo Yi?"

"How would I know where she is? Get the hell out of here and don’t force me to act," Liu Ming said with a ferocious look on his face.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Quan, who was by Li Xiaoyao’s side, was shocked. What on earth was going on? How had this man knocked out a police officer?

"It seems like you won’t give up until you’re at the end of your rope, alright then, I’ll just have to ask in a different way," Li Xiaoyao said, turning to Xiao Quan, "Go shut the door and wait for me outside."

"What?" Xiao Quan thought he had misheard. In this situation, wasn’t it advantageous to have more people?

But seeing Li Xiaoyao’s expression, Xiao Quan knew he was not joking. He uttered an acknowledgment and left the room, closing the door behind him.

Liu Ming didn’t know what Li Xiaoyao was planning, but with only one opponent left, Liu Ming felt significantly less pressure.

Li Xiaoyao took steps towards Liu Ming, who raised his voice and said, "Don’t come any closer, or I will actually break this cop’s neck."

Li Xiaoyao revealed a sly smile and whispered, "Are you threatening me? I really detest being threatened by others."

Liu Ming saw that Li Xiaoyao continued to approach and shouted louder, "I told you not to come over, can’t you f***ing understand human language?"

Li Xiaoyao completely ignored Liu Ming’s rage, watching as the distance between them shrunk from five or six meters to just two.

"Damn it!" Liu Ming cursed, his palm squeezing Zhu Xiaoyue’s neck, a ruthless gleam flashing in his eyes as he prepared to twist her neck.

But just as Liu Ming was about to act, he was horrified to find that he couldn’t move his body at all.

Li Xiaoyao walked up to him and asked with a grin, "Does your body feel very stiff?"

"What’s happened to me?" Liu Ming asked himself in shock, then looked at Li Xiaoyao with fear, "What the hell did you do to me?"

Of course, Li Xiaoyao wasn’t going to tell him that he had used telekinesis to immobilize him.

Li Xiaoyao took Zhu Xiaoyue from Liu Ming’s hands. Upon close contact, Li Xiaoyao noticed the police officer’s delicate appearance; her skin was fair and flushed, as if the slightest touch could bruise it, though her uniform still didn’t fit well.

Li Xiaoyao was no gentleman, but he would certainly not take advantage of someone in peril. He placed Zhu Xiaoyue in a chair beside him, then released Liu Ming.

Feeling that he could move again, Liu Ming no longer cared about Zhu Xiaoyue as he turned and ran into the house.

"Trying to run away!" Li Xiaoyao sneered, reached out to grab Liu Ming’s hair, and with one strong pull, sent Liu Ming tumbling backward onto the floor.

Li Xiaoyao stepped on Liu Ming and called out to the outside, "Xiao Quan."

"Bang!"

Xiao Quan kicked open the front door, only to see the scene of Liu Ming being stepped on by Li Xiaoyao.
