However, Chu Yue did not intend to let her off just like that.

The reason why Lu Jun insisted on looking at this surveillance video was to understand what had happened. He could take the opportunity to protect Shi Man in exchange for her entering the army with him.

Chief Zheng’s gaze lingered on Chu Yue and Shi Man. In the end, he pushed Shi Man’s hand away and placed the surveillance video in front of everyone. “You should take a look yourself. If you find anything suspicious, you can explain it in person.”

In the scene, Shi Man was holding a silver pistol with a cold expression. After entering, her figure quickly flashed, and right on the heels of that, a well-built man knelt on the ground in pain. Beside him was a severed arm, and there was a pool of scarlet blood at his feet.

Right on the heels of that, Shi Man stabbed another person’s body. The other two trembled and said something. In the end, Shi Man turned around and left in satisfaction.

The entire process took less than twenty minutes, but it left an indelible shadow in their hearts.

In the surveillance cameras, Shi Man seemed to have become another person. She was cruel, violent, and ferocious. Especially after every time she stabbed someone, she had to carefully wipe the blood on the silver dagger. The scene was terrifying, making one’s back turn cold.

Even Chu Yue, who had been clamoring to see the video, could not help but turn pale with fear.

It was not that her hands had never been stained with blood, but she had never seen anyone do these things with a smile. Moreover, from Shi Man’s methods, it was obvious that this was not the first time Shi Man had done such a thing!

“Man, Manman…” Shen Xian covered her mouth tightly to stop herself from screaming, but she was already extremely afraid!

The girl’s expression in the scene was extremely cold; it was exactly the same as Shi Man’s.

This person was really Shi Man herself…

Shi Zhong frowned and was so shocked that he could not speak for a long time.

Chief Zheng had already seen it many times in the police station. Now that he saw it again, he couldn’t help but feel shocked again. He couldn’t help but ask, “Shi Man, the police immediately started an investigation after receiving this video. The person whose arm you cut off just now is the boss of the underground casino. His name is Brother Liang, and he’s also a famous drug dealer in the dark. How did you know them and find out where they are?”

After Zheng Xin’s incident, Chief Zheng had no choice but to be fully focused on drug trafficking.

Decades of police career told him that Shi Man must be inseparable from this matter.

Shi Man slowly lowered her eyes. She, who had always been fearless, suddenly did not dare to look into Shen Xian’s eyes. She only answered Chief Zheng’s question expressionlessly, “These people are drug traffickers. I was getting rid of evil for the people.”

“Then how did you know about them?” Chief Zheng asked impatiently.

He suddenly had a feeling that he might really be able to find out the truth about Zheng Xin’s case through Shi Man!

While he could not tell what role Shi Man had played in this, he hoped that Shi Man would remember her identity and not mix with the drug dealers.

But even so, just this surveillance video was enough to convict Shi Man.

Shi Man pursed her lips and stopped talking.

The few people she had caught at the nightclub that day had only revealed Brother Liang’s identity to her after her interrogation. Now that they had successfully quit their drug addiction and returned to the right path, and had agreed to be used by her, she could not easily expose them again.

Thinking of this, Shi Man shook her head gently and refused to say another word.

Shen Xian was extremely anxious at the side. She walked to her side with tears in her eyes, wanting to reach out and pull her precious daughter into her arms like usual. However, when she thought of the glaring blood in the surveillance cameras just now, her outstretched hand suddenly stopped in the air.

Shi Man looked fixedly at her arm that had suddenly stopped and lowered her eyes in loneliness. Half of her face was covered by the hair on her cheek. No one knew how sad she was.

However, Shen Xian only hesitated for a moment. In the next second, Shi Man was pulled into a warm embrace.

Shen Xian patted her head gently, her gentle voice comforting her fragility. “Be good. No matter what the truth is, you will always be Mommy’s baby. Mommy will always believe that you won’t do anything bad. The surveillance video just now must have only captured the tip of the iceberg. Mommy believes that they must have done something overboard first.”

Shi Man, who was suddenly hugged, widened her eyes in disbelief. There had never been a moment that made her want to cry, but Shen Xian’s simple words easily touched her heart.

Shi Man slowly raised her hand and hugged Shen Xian. A smile finally appeared on her lips. “Mom, thank you for believing me. Fortunately, you’re here.”

Lu Jun kept looking over with a dark expression. Just as Shi Man was about to confess, he suddenly weighed the walking stick in his hand and said without changing his expression, “I asked Shi Man to go. This is a mission I secretly assigned to Shi Man to destroy the drug trafficking den..”
