The junior police superintendent asked him a few simple questions, then left. Zhang Beixing didn't know what the superintendent had gone to do.

He was alone in the small room.

It was profoundly quiet.

But anyhow, the environment of the small room wasn't bad at all—clean and hygienic. It was all because Zhang Beixing's unusual influence and various official accomplishments that the police station had given him preferential treatment.

Otherwise, under normal circumstances, he would have already been locked up in a small cell with four or five other people.

After sitting for a while, Zhang Beixing began to feel a bit bored.

So, I simply leaned on the table and thought about today's events.

Killing Goreis was within my expectations.

But killing that Black Ghost afterward was completely unexpected.

However, at that time, I was anxious to save someone and accidentally killed him. There shouldn't be any major problem... right?

I also wonder how Dad and Mom are handling the news.

They're probably quite worried.

After all, their son publicly killed two people in a live broadcast today.

They must be terrified.

I'll have to go back and properly console them.

Speaking of which, how big is the public outcry on the internet about this incident right now?

Unfortunately, I don't have my phone, so I can't check…

As for regrets?

Actually, I don't regret it at all. Even if I could do it over, I would still make the same choice.

Killing a Black Ghost is the same as killing a little devil. Both are despicable, and killing them isn't enough to vent my anger.

As Zhang Beixing was lost in a sea of thoughts,

CLICK—

The door was pushed open, and Superintendent Bai walked in.

Seeing him, Zhang Beixing was somewhat surprised.

Then he heard Superintendent Bai whisper, "Comrade Zhang, please come with us; the official media reporters are here, saying they want to interview you."

"Interview me?"

Zhang Beixing made a surprised sound, somewhat puzzled.

But he stood up obediently anyway.

And followed Superintendent Bai out.

"Comrade Zhang, remember to be low-key during the interview, speak more tactfully, and you can also express regret for this mishap. Lower your stance. It will help calm international public opinion and facilitate your exoneration."

On the way, Superintendent Bai kept giving instructions, making Zhang Beixing realize that the public opinion outside must have exploded, and he was currently deep in the vortex.

As Zhang Beixing followed Superintendent Bai to meet the official media reporters.

「Online」

The Shishi Police Bureau had also issued a police statement—white text on a blue background—regarding today's events:

Police Report

At around 14:00 on August 7th, after receiving a report from the public about a criminal case at Shi University in Shishi, which resulted in two deaths, the Shishi Public Security Bureau immediately established an investigation team, brought in the involved party for questioning, and initiated an investigation into the matter. The results of the investigation will be publicly disclosed as soon as they are available.

Shishi Police Headquarters, August 7, 2018

When this statement came out, it instantly ignited the internet!

Originally, since the live broadcast room had been shut down, netizens were very curious about what exactly had happened at the scene and what the subsequent situation was.

They hadn't expected that after only ten minutes, Zhang Beixing would already have been taken into custody by the Shishi police.

"No way, what's going on here? He was fine during the live broadcast, and then he's straight into the station afterward?"

"Didn't you see the report? Someone reported him for murder. What else could he do if not go to the station?"

"Damn, that's disgusting. My Brother Zhang is combating a menace to the people, yet someone reports him? That person deserves to die!"

"There's no helping it; the public opinion on this matter is too strong, seen by too many people. Even without a report, the police would've come knocking."

"What I'm curious about is just one thing: why arrest my Brother Dan? If I remember correctly, what he did seemed totally legal, right?"

"Yeah, isn't it said that for members of the Martial Arts Association, as long as a competition they participate in is registered, it's considered an official competition? And that accidental killing in an official competition isn't illegal, nor is responsibility pursued? So why is he still being investigated...?"

"Because people died, man! Even if it's official, you still have to be brought in for an investigation to see if it was really an accident. Otherwise, it doesn't follow protocol!"

"What I'm worried about now is whether my Brother Beixing will get into trouble once inside. What if they determine it wasn't an accident?"

"When you say that, I'm starting to worry too. Damn, if they determine it was intentional, then that's a really big problem!"

"Moreover, there's the matter of him swinging his gun and killing that Black Ghost—shit, that's not easy to deal with. The person who reported my Brother Dan really deserves to die. Let me catch them, and I swear I'll ** your *****, I'll **** his mother *****!"

"Enough, discussing this is pointless now. Brother Dan is already in. Instead of worrying about all this nonsense, we should think about how we can get Brother Dan out, exonerated and free!"

"Right, 'Those who fetch firewood for others should not be left to freeze in the snow and wind!' This Goreis deserved to die for insulting Great Xia's Martial Arts, bullying Great Xia as if it had no capable men, and abusing Great Xia's women. He totally deserved his fate. Brother Dan acted for the good of the people, elevated our nation's prestige, and no matter what, he should not be treated this way or suffer this indignity. Brothers, let's go, head over to the official videos, and petition for Brother Dan!"

"That's right! Let's petition for Brother Dan!"

Seeing the statement released by the police, netizens expressed their worries for Zhang Beixing.

Since the turn of the 21st century, Great Xia has long been troubled by Black Ghosts.

Especially Gakanda, which, under the massive invasion of Black Ghosts, was almost turning into a little Black Continent!
