Chapter 326

“Ms. Berry, are you okay?” The captain of the investigation team looked with concern at the woman currently

sitting on the sofa. She exuded a high-and-mighty air akin to that of a royalty.

“I’m okay.” Ashlyn smirked. “They are the ones in trouble.”

As the investigation continued, several forensic scientists and crime scene officers began to scour the scene for

clues as to the identity of the deceased.

When it was discovered that the deceased was the leader of the gang whom they had issued an arrest warrant for,

they exclaimed in astonishment, “Captain! The deceased turned out to be Wagner!”

“What did you just say?” The captain gingerly hurried over, immediately recognizing the deceased as Wagner.

Taking a glance at the dying deputy leader to confirm his deduction, he broke out into a joyous grin. “Ms. Berry,

thank you for your assistance in taking down this gang of violent criminals!”

They were doing all sorts of evils - from murders to arsons to robberies. Sadly, the police could not find any hard

shreds of evidence on their crimes.

This time, however, it had been a great pleasure to nab them all at once.

For the deputy leader who had committed a homicide, he would be spending a long time languishing in prison.

“No... no...” the poor man tried futilely to explain that he did not murder his leader.

But the excruciating pain akin to the breaking of a few ribs in his chest was preventing him from even completing a

coherent sentence.

Three o’clock early morning on that very day.

The peaceful Lake City issued a seemingly innocuous Tweet.

“During the dead of the night, the police solved a robbery case and the robbers were caught red-handed. During

the division of their gains, the robbers had a falling-out and a nasty internal fight broke out, resulting in one death

and one serious injury. I would like to thank Ms. Ashlyn Berry for helping us to apprehend all 37 suspects at the

scene. Due to Ms. Berry’s contributions, she would be receiving a medal for her bravery as well as an honorary

certificate!”

Early next morning, the peace in Lake City was shattered.

The whole online world was in a furor.

“What the... ! What’s going on? I just slept for one night and now look at what I had missed!”

“How did Ashlyn help the police solve another case?”

“Last time she helped to arrest a kidnapper to save a child. This time she helped to arrest a bunch of robbers. Is

there anything she can’t do?”

“She should just be a freelance police staff.”

“A beautiful lady who knows martial arts. Oh, how she has stolen my heart! Stab me now!”

“She’s a model citizen!”

“This is unbelievable. Really incredible!”

As the netizens continued to discuss the most viral news of the day, Ashlyn had no idea what was going on online.

She was too busy to log onto Twitter. She had only managed to sleep for a few hours the previous night and now

she had to reach the concert hall early in the morning despite being groggy and sleep-deprived stupor.

Today happened to be the very first time she wore makeup for a rehearsal, and she had all those assistants and

secretaries of various leaders bustling around and fussing with her.

Meanwhile, those leaders only need to sit in their comfortable offices waiting for things to be ready.

Therefore, no matter how sleepy she felt, she had to force herself to get up.

After all, she had a strong sense of responsibility even though she felt uncomfortable not getting enough sleep.

However, out of respect for both Mr. and Mrs. Field, she relented very reluctantly.

Upon arriving, however, she did not anticipate that a group of hundreds of performers would be looking at her with

fervent admiration and respect in their eyes.

Rubbing her sleepy eyes, she was baffled. “What’s going on?”

Those looks of overwhelming admiration made her feel awkward.

Usually, Helcor and Tinsor were the ones giving her that kind of look. Since they were just a couple of her men, she

had gotten used to it. But now, having hundreds of pairs of eyes admiring her in that manner. It just felt so weird.

The whole spectacle was a bit unnerving.

Right at this moment, a sudden clattering of footsteps headed towards her.

The mayor’s assistant quickly greeted respectfully, “Mr. Field, Chief Chase, follow me this way. Ms. Berry is waiting

inside.”

Everyone saw the Mayor, Mr. Field, and the Police Chief entering the concert hall.

Chief Chase saw Ashlyn in front of the crowd and walked over to her excitedly. Shaking both his hands with hers, he

said, “Ms. Berry, thank you so much for helping us solve a big case! Your help is indispensable in our effort to crack

down on crimes!”

Having said that, he motioned his assistant to bring the pennant, certificate, and medal to him.

He personally pinned the medal to her chest, awarded her the pennant and certificate, then presented her with a

cheque of twenty thousand as a reward.

Ashlyn was speechless.

Was it a good thing to receive so much from the Police Chief so early in the morning?
