You Have the Right to Keep a Secret Love

Chapter 33 "Qixi, it's me"...

But reality was, Gu Yan was not Superman, and he didn't come.

The area where Qixi was splashed had quickly turned red, resembling a burn, but fortunately, it didn't appear to be festering.

After anxiously checking her body and confirming that, apart from a slight burn on the skin of her hand used to block the liquid, there were no major injuries, she finally relaxed a bit.

She picked up the water bottle that the assailant had dropped and cautiously sniffed it. It was colorless and odorless, most likely just water. Besides the reddened skin from the burn, she didn't experience any other symptoms.

Once she had calmed down a bit, Qixi called the police, and they quickly arrived at the scene.

She briefly recounted what had happened, "This is what happened. Can you please check the nearby surveillance cameras to identify the person?"

The police officer wasn't in a hurry. "You work as a lawyer at the Legal Aid Center, right? And you were splashed when you just walked out of the center?"

Qixi didn't understand, but nodded, "Yes."

The police officer's face showed understanding, and then he shrugged, "There's no need to check the surveillance cameras."

Qixi felt a bit discouraged, "Is it because the cameras here are not working?"

The Legal Aid Center was located in the old district of Rong City, where many public facilities were outdated, lacking maintenance and repair. Even many streetlights were broken, so it was normal for the surveillance cameras to be non-functional.

"It's not that," the police officer shook his head. "The cameras are working fine, but there's no need to retrieve the footage. Because I know who did it."

"So... it's a repeat offender?"

"But the reality was, Gu Yan wasn't Superman, and he didn't come.
