The police and others followed Li Nan into the Hong family's home. They soon found the Hong family's basement.

However, the scene before them shocked everyone instantly.

According to Li Nan, the possibly bullied junior apprentice was now sitting on a chair in the basement with Bai Yansheng, leisurely drinking tea and eating snacks, looking utterly at ease.

And those who should have been bullying the Hong family and the expelled students were instead sitting opposite each other, slapping each other back and forth.

It looks like...

Extremely embarrassed!!!

"What's wrong with you? You're too weak! If you're this weak, Anbao will let the little bugs go!"

An Bao ate a mouthful of melon seeds that Bai Yansheng had peeled and handed over, then looked at those people with a hint of displeasure.

Upon hearing An Bao's words, the crowd trembled and collectively turned their gaze to what An Bao had spoken of—the little bug...

In the corner behind Anbao, there was a pitch-black something squatting.

As people drew closer, they could make out what the dark mass was...

It was a large insect, the size of an adult. If you had to call it an insect... well, there wasn't really any mistake, after all, it looked just like a giant mantis.

Those round, beady eyes were the size of a head, and its emerald green body was adorned with two powerful, blade-like feet.

Li Nan and the crowd following him all watched this scene, involuntarily swallowing their saliva, looking like they had never seen anything in the world.

Oh...

Bug?

Little, little bug?

Is this thing small?

Probably because the scene before him was too shocking, even Li Nan took a while to react, couldn't help but open his mouth and say: "An Bao, you, are you okay?"

Anbao seemed to have just discovered Li Nan and the others' arrival. He excitedly jumped down from his chair and ran happily to their side, saying, "Little Uncle, you're finally here?"

Li Nan looked at the little milk bun on his waist and couldn't help but rub his temples.

This little ball of fluff is so cute and adorable, but when it gets down to business, it's absolutely ruthless!

"Cough cough, here I come, are you alright?"

Li Nan coughed twice, glanced awkwardly at the faces of the policemen beside him, and then, as if to make amends, gently rubbed An Bao's little head.

Anbao nodded, her face that was just smiling now had a few strands of grievance and accusation. Then she looked at the policeman beside Li Nan and opened her mouth to report word by word: "Officer, you're here! Quickly arrest these bad guys!!! They are so bad! They want to kill me!!!"

The police found it both amusing and surprising to hear what Anbao had said. Murder? This was a serious matter!

Don't worry, little one. Leave this to us, we won't let any bad guys get away.

The leading police officer stepped forward, speaking with righteous indignation, and then cast a glance at the bruised and battered members of the Hong family. He twitched his lips and said, "Stop it, you all. Enough."

After a moment of silence, he turned to the rest of the police officers behind him and said, "Take them all back to the station."

"Yes!"

The police immediately rushed forward to apprehend the suspect. However, this arrest was surprisingly easy compared to the tense, thrilling, and dangerous pursuits of previous criminals. It felt more like a vacation than a capture!

Most importantly...

When the Hong family saw the police arrive, they all burst into tears and rushed forward to hug them, as if eager to follow the police away.

This really stumped all the police officers.

This is the first time I've seen this situation...

"Waaaah, Officer please arrest me quickly!"

"Waaah, I'm guilty, I'm guilty, I confess, but it wasn't me who was bullied by this monster!"

"Please save us! Help us!!!"

The police officers twitched their lips after hearing the Hong family's story. If they didn't know these people were truly criminals, they might think they were the victims!

After everyone was taken away, the leading policeman couldn't help but glance at the giant mantis squatting in that corner. He coughed and cautiously asked, "That thing..."

"Oh, Uncle don't be afraid, it's just a drawing."

Anbao answered in a sweet, baby voice. Then, fearing the police wouldn't believe him, he walked up to the mantis and really rolled it up, making it into a square block like tofu, before stuffing it into his little pocket.

Everyone looked at this scene, expressing astonishment, but...

But the leading officer twitched his lips again. Why, he seemed to have just seen the mantis's leg twitch as it retracted?

Did he get it wrong?

Bai Yansheng probably saw the suspicious look in the policeman's eyes and hurriedly coughed, saying: "Hello, I am Bai Yansheng, the victim of this kidnapping. I want to sue the Hong family for kidnapping and attempted murder! Not only that, but I also want to accuse them of hiding firearms and... drugs!"

Bai Yansheng's words instantly made the policeman forget what he had just seen, instead looking at Bai Yansheng with astonishment: "What did you say?"

Without any hesitation, Bai Yisheng led them to the several large boxes that had appeared behind the collapsed wall.

The police approached and inspected the box, discovering it was filled with various firearms and drugs.

Seeing this, the police became extremely alert and their expressions grew even more solemn.

I originally thought this was just an ordinary kidnapping and extortion case, but I didn't expect it to be connected to something so huge!

The Hong family has always appeared to be ordinary merchants on the surface. Although they mainly dealt in foreign trade, they never revealed any signs of their true intentions!

But now I didn't expect that there was such a big thing hidden in it!

Now things are getting even more complicated. I don't know if there are other people behind the Hong family, after all, they have guns and drugs!

If they have no contact with anyone, where do they buy and sell from?

At this moment, the police officers felt a mixture of seriousness and excitement.

After all, this clue was just something that came to them out of the blue, effortless!

An Bao and Bai Yansheng didn't idle either, they went to the police station with the police, made a record before leaving.

On the way home, Li Nan kept chattering: "An Bao, tell me about your mantis. What kind of thing is it? I've never seen anything like it! You got something good and don't even share it with your little master uncle?"

"You don't know, when I just went out to find the police, it was so dangerous! Your shrinking spell almost got me eaten by a cat!!"

"I put in so much effort, just to understand the principle behind your giant mantis. Is that too much to ask?"
