Ephemeral clouds and works

Chapter 1109: The Good Show Begins 2

    

he swung out of the courtyard.The big tree rustled loudly, attracting the attention of patrolling soldiers. They shouted and ran over, but only saw swaying branches. A cat's meow came from outside the..."Officer, there's one more person I caught. Should he be compensating me"

"The ripple pointed at the man who was already handcuffed and placed on a hovering police car,"

"Of course, Miss He's losses here will be borne by him and the other fugitive."

The police were clearly taking a liking to Ripple, after all she was a martyr's daughter, an orphan, and so talented.

The three people who broke into the room were killed by her, one was captured alive, and only one escaped. This is not something an ordinary underage girl could do.

"That's good. I currently have no income and am barely getting by. If I were to renovate my room or buy a cultivation chamber, I would be helpless."

Ripple effect, speak the truth.

The fugitive hasn't been caught yet. To avoid retaliation from their accomplices, please come with me to the police station temporarily. We need to collect evidence here because there was a power outage at the time. You'll also need to recount what happened.

The officer spoke in a conciliatory tone.

"No problem."

Lin Yi readily agreed, only carrying a crossbody bag. After putting her shortened staff inside, she got into the police hovercraft and left her apartment complex.

Because the other party drew a gun, other residents in the community were also alarmed. Some people knew Ripple, and they all wanted to know the specific situation, especially Mei Hui from next door. The anxiety on her face was genuine.

Unfortunately, Lianyi doesn't have the time to deal with these people right now. She's the victim here, and all she can do is play the poor me card for now.

Mei Hui watched the departing air car, her brow furrowed tightly. She had a bad feeling about this; things were not what she knew them to be.

"What's going on She was supposed to be seriously injured, but now it seems those people are the ones who got hurt instead"

Meihui muttered to herself.

She didn't bother Lian Yi further after he refused to lend her a cultivation chamber because she knew that someone would break into Lian Yi's home in the next two days and severely injure him.

In order not to miss the entrance exam of the Federal First Academy, Ripple had to get in good shape before that. Under the premise of having no source of income, selling the newly purchased training cabin was the only option.

By then, she only needed to step forward and express her concern, then buy back the cultivation chamber. But now everything has turned into an illusion. She was a little unwilling, but since Ripples went to the police station, she could only wait temporarily.

At this time, Lian at the police station is being questioned by the investigating officer Silas.

Although Silas is a criminal policeman, due to the ubiquitous surveillance on this small planet and the existence of the AI, he has hardly solved any major cases.

And this time, the fact that the ripples encountered a robbery at home was a big case, and it involved the families of martyrs, so he was still very cautious.

Only after hearing the ripples' recounting did he open his mouth and ask:

"Ms. He, you said they are known criminals with a clear objective. What evidence do you have" Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

First, the three intruders had a clear division of labor. One went straight to my cultivation chamber, one dismantled my household robots, and the third person was responsible for keeping watch.

Moreover, after I fought them, they resorted to gunfire when they realized they couldn't defeat me. Even as they sensed the arrival of patrol officers, they still took away the damaged cultivation chamber and even abandoned their comrades.

Last but not least, the timing of their intrusion into my room was too coincidental. They accurately found my home and it happened to be that our district had a power outage at that time, and the backup power hadn't been activated. They attacked me during the brief window when the surveillance system was restarting.

After the power was restored, they decisively chose to flee, and even I, as a witness, didn't have time to silence myself.

As the ripples spread, he mused to himself.

Si Lan Nuo nodded after listening to Lian Yi's analysis, then let her look over the statement and signed it before saying:

"The fugitive has not been caught yet. You're under federal police protection for now. Stay here a few days until things are settled, and I'll let you know as soon as there's an update."

"Alright, thank you Officer Silas, sorry to trouble you."

With a humble and unyielding thanks, Lian Yi was immediately taken to a small interrogation room at the police station.

Ripple yawned, kicked off her shoes, climbed onto the bed and went to sleep, covering her head. After all that trouble, she was finally able to rest.

By the time the ripples woke up, it was already the next morning. The sky hadn't lightened yet, and she didn't want to get up for a while, so she closed her eyes in bed, recalling what had happened yesterday.

She is now very certain that those people were after 4758, otherwise they wouldn't have even taken the damaged cultivation chamber.

And she used the opponent's attack to destroy 4758's means of escape, the bio-mechanical robot Lord Lo and the intelligent brain bracelet, even including the cultivation chamber.

But she was certain that 4758 wouldn't die so easily. He was probably hiding somewhere right now, and at least in the short term, he wouldn't come looking for her. As for partnering with someone else, she wasn't optimistic either. After all, a group of people were always watching 4758 in secret. Until he could completely get rid of them, 4758 couldn't do anything. He was just a set of data.

That afternoon, after lunch, Liàn Yī was invited to meet with Sī Lán Nuò again.

This time, Silas' face was rather heavy. After letting Ripple sit down, he opened his mouth:

We have found the fugitive, but he is dead.

"Huh Then what about the cultivation chamber that was stolen from me"

Ripples immediately asked.

He was not found nearby.

"Can the person who was captured compensate me for my losses"

Ripple frowned and asked, "What she cares about most is this."

"I tried my best, but there's a tricky issue right now."

Sulan Nuo rubbed his hands together and said.

"What's the problem"

They are all genetic clones.

"Clone"

"Yes, and they were reproduced through illegal means."

Since it's a clone, you can find the original and have them compensate me instead.

The problem is that these people are not actively engaging in gene duplication, and they are even unaware of when their genes were lost.

Si Lan Nuo explained.

"This mute guy thinks he has me figured out."

Ripple clenched her fists.

"No, it's just that this case involves an illegal genetic cloning group, and it has also spawned the use of clones for criminal activities. Therefore, the case will be transferred to the higher-level federal government for investigation."

As for your losses, the police department will be responsible for helping you apply, and the federal government will cover half.

Sirlanno immediately soothed him.

That's about right, otherwise I wouldn't be able to prepare for the entrance exam.

Even the ripples sighed in relief. Don't ruin your own bright future because you caught a few people.

However, before the case is solved, we don't mind you staying at your current residence. We can help you relocate to a new place if that works for you

"Officer, the place I'm living now was bought by my parents. Given this situation, I've decided to sell the house and move ahead of time to a star system near the Federal First Academy. I'll prepare for the exam while also earning some Federation credits."

"That's not impossible, but you're still a week away from being an adult. Houses can't be traded temporarily, and getting tickets for interstellar spaceships is also a bit troublesome."

Si Lan Nuo did not refuse outright.

"It's alright, I've listed the house for sale through a realtor. As for the interstellar spaceship tickets, you'll have to trouble Officer Silas. Since I'm the party involved in this case, out of protection, you could purchase the tickets under your name. Of course, I will be covering the expenses myself."his gun at his waist. But the next moment, a green-eyed gray wolf bit down on his wrist as he reached for it, pain causing him to cry out. His other hand went to strangle the wolf's neck, and his feet...
