Thinking of the times they could just run rampant across the district, yet they had suffered that ignominy
in the hands of that girl, the hooligans needed to find a way to get his face back.
As they thought of this, a menacing look appeared in their eyes.
The officer then said, “She doesn’t know what her crime is.
Why don’t you lads tell her properly.” Yellowhead and the others started to make accusations against
Nicole, saying that they were merely out drinking and walking at night and were eating by one of the
roadside stalls.
According to them, they ran into Nicole, who not only overturned the stall but also even beat all of them
up.
So now, all of them were hurt, and some were even hospitalized.
Bluehead nodded as he lied about it.
“Yeah, officer.
That happened.
You need to stand up for us! ” he spoke to the officer angrily in a threatening tone.
The officer nodded as he heard that.
“Don’t worry, there’s no escaping when you commit a crime in my area!” He then shot Nicole a cold glare.
“We have witnesses here.
Are you still not admitting your crime?”
Nicole looked at him impassively.
“Even if what they said is true, are you not interested in my motivation?”
“That.” The officer immediately looked at Bluehead, and even the latter was stunned, not knowing what
to say for a moment.
At this very moment, a bright voice suddenly came from outside.
He had heard Nicole’s question and sneered, “That’s the question we should be asking you! What is your
motive?”
As soon as the officer heard that, it was as if he had found his backbone.
“Chief James, why are you here in person?”
The person called “chief” was a short man with a mustache, and beneath his moussed dark blonde hair
was a pair of ferocious brown-yellow eyes.
At a glance, it was clear he was no goody two-shoes,
Chief James snorted coldly as he heard the officer ask him that.
“If I didn’t come here myself, what can you bunch of fools do?”
The officer wiped the sweat off his forehead and said flatteringly, “You’re right, sir, with you personally
interrogating her, things will be easier!” He hurriedly made way for the chief as his entire person shrank
away.
The officer was actually taller than Chief James, yet the way he acted made him look so much shorter.
When Nicole saw this, she squinted her eyes a little.
As soon Chief Jarnes sat down, he slammed his hands against the table, pointing at the hoodlums as he
said to Nicole, *Don’t you know that they are good citizens of Nottingbrook
late? For a lout like you to beat them up like this, it’s heinousl Based on the laws of Nottingbrook State,
I’ll tork you up for ten months first Bluehead immediately gave the chief a displeased glance as he heard
that, hinting that ten months was way too short.
Chief James clearly understood what he meant and motioned for
him to calm down.
After all, it was just a premeditated assault, and they only suffered flesh wounds.
Locking her up for ten months was to ensure that she stayed here.
Whatever happens inside the prison could, after all, be attributed to an accident.
Ever since Chief James took office in the Amhurst District, he had not kept his hands clean from things
like this and had gotten plenty of benefits out of it.
This time around, it was just a Hustuaburgian girl, plus she was so young.
So, he assumed that she would have no way to resist him pinning all sorts of charges on her.
Moreover, he could gain the trust of Thor’s underlings and befriend the largest local underworld force.
Plus, he could get over 200,000 bucks.
Who would say no to that?
Chief James could already see the whole thing pan out.
He thought that this deal was pure profit and no loss!
