Avoiding The Male Lead-2

......

That man nodded at Jungkook and then walked towards Ji Eun. 

Xin Lisa looked confusedly at Jungkook. He smiled and reassured her. 

Xin Lisa was shocked and her gaze followed the two. She watched as one of them took out a pair of handcuffs from their back pockets. 

Xin Lisa stared at them and couldn’t help but think: they’re police?

As expected, the man who seemed to be familiar with Jungkook took out his ID and said with imposing manner, “Miss Lee, I am the leader of Sheng Jin City’s criminal police squad. We have reliable evidence and witnesses to prove that you have attempted twice to murder someone. Now, we are going to arrest you.”

The moment the man revealed his status, the staff all gasped except Ji Eun. She remained unmoved. “Do you guys have proof that I killed someone? If not, don’t think about arresting me!”

“Come to the police station with us and we’ll make sure you’re convinced.”

“I won’t go!” Ji Eun widened her bright eyes. “Leave me alone! You guys have no right to arrest me! Let me go!”

The other young man by the leader’s side walked over and easily subdued Ji Eun who was trying to escape. The clear sound of the snapping of handcuffs rang. Xin Lisa captured Ji Eun’s strange and horrific gaze on her. “It’s you guys! It must be you guys! Jeon Jungkook, Xin Lisa, you guys are trying to frame me, right?! I never murdered anyone. You guys aren’t even dead. I didn’t murder anyone. I didn’t murder anyone!”

That man held her two shoulders forcibly and suppressed her. He said sternly, “Leave whatever you have to say at the police station!”

“Take her away.” When the leader said that, Ji Eun was brought away.

“Xin Lisa! Don’t be too happy! I will definitely come back! I will definitely live longer than you! When the time comes, I’ll have you see how you will die! Wait for it!”

People’s scalps felt numb at the ear-piercing voice. 

While Xin Lisa knitted her eyebrows and was in a trance, the leader said, “I’ll interrogate her and notify you of the result.”

Jungkook said, “Thank you.”

That man smiled and said, “Ever since I knew you, you never asked me to help you with anything. This time, you actually asked me so I naturally can’t just do nothing. Although it might take some time to investigate this, don’t forget that you owe me a favor!”

“Of course.” Jungkook laughed. 

“Ok, on the day of your wedding, remember to call me.”

“No problem.”

The leader continued, “If you have time, bring your woman to the police station so we can record what happened and go through the procedures.”

“Ok.”

After Jungkook bade farewell with him, he turned to look at Xin Lisa and asked, “Since the guest is going to the police station, does that mean you can get off work earlier?”

Xin Lisa’s eyelashes slightly trembled. So, just how long has Jungkook been planning this?

She couldn’t understand the process. In the morning, Xin Ten clearly told her that they couldn’t find any evidence or witnesses. How did the police end up arresting her in the afternoon now?

On the way, Xin Lisa couldn’t help but ask, “What happened?”

Jungkook’s slender fingers were tapping and creating a rhythm. He looked out the window, clearly in a great mood. The blue sky, white clouds, and the bright sunshine. When he heard her question, he turned around to ask, “What?”

“My brother clearly said that it’s hard to find evidence against Shi Shi. Even she was confident that she would never be defeated. How did you guys find the evidence?”

Jungkook said, “In this world, as long as you have networks and money, you can do anything. She was too arrogant and believed that she was flawless with her plans. In reality, she left loopholes. In order to make her plead guilty, I already found the evidence and witnesses against her. What a pity that she didn’t succeed in murdering so she could only be sentenced lightly. However, ten years of jail should be enough for her to repent sincerely and mend her mistakes.”

Xin Lisa quietly glanced at him before gradually smiling. “Although I don’t know her that well, I don’t think she’s the type of person to repent and mend her mistakes.”

“What you’re saying is…”

“I don’t mean anything. I just think it’s quite bizarre for someone like her to be alive.”

Jungkook reached over to hug her. He comforted her and said, “There are all sorts of people in this world. It’s nothing strange. After seeing many of them, you get used to it.”

“That’s true. Ten years should be enough.” Xin Lisa said and then added in her heart: who knew if this world could last another ten years…

Was this an unrealistic story or a dream? She couldn’t tell the difference anymore

If Ji Eun was saying the truth, time would stop after two years of his marriage. Did that mean everyone would continue to exist or disappear? Will she die? Or return to her previous world? Or would this be put to an end?

She couldn’t tell.

“What are you thinking about?” Seeing that she was in a trance and her tightly knitted eyebrows ever since Ji Eun was arrested, Jungkook asked a bit anxiously.
