285: Chapter 285 The Horror of Hell

"No, Lin Xiao, what are you doing?"

The commotion here quickly alerted Officer Zhang.

Officer Zhang hadn't expected that, just as Lin Xiao was about to leave, an accident would still occur.

And it was such an absurd accident, at that!

Officer Zhang looked at the Bank Manager lying on the ground in disbelief and also stepped forward to check.

The result was the same.

He had stopped breathing!

He couldn't believe that Lin Xiao would do such a thing!

Even if the Lin family's assets were vast, it was impossible to shield a murderer who committed a crime inside the police station!

Qiu Xiaoyan and Mrs. Qiu were also stunned.

They never expected that the method Lin Xiao thought of would actually be like this.

But they reacted quickly.

Mrs. Qiu stood out first, "Officer, this is my fault. Don't arrest him; I am willing to take responsibility!"

Qiu Xiaoyan also hurriedly explained, "No, no, this is my problem. If I hadn't insisted on finding what my grandfather left behind, this wouldn't have happened... If you want to arrest someone, arrest me!"

The surrounding police officers were astonished.

This mother and daughter were actually willing to take the blame for Lin Xiao?

But this was the police station; how could such a thing be allowed to happen?

Qiu Xiaoyan's attitude was very firm.

She even stood directly in front of Lin Xiao, blocking the police's view.

"I don't care, anyway, you cannot arrest him!"

Qiu Xiaoyan's gaze was resolute.

This was also something Lin Xiao hadn't expected.

In his impression, Qiu Xiaoyan had always been a person who knew how to conduct herself; at least in front of outsiders, she had almost never lost her composure.

Let alone acting so unreasonably.

For his sake, she could be so reckless.

Lin Xiao felt a bit touched.

However, Qiu Xiaoyan and Mrs. Qiu were indeed overthinking things. How could he possibly sacrifice the rest of his life for a shameless piece of scum?

He walked over to the Bank Manager again and kicked him.

"Lin Xiao!"

Officer Zhang was furious.

This kid was too arrogant; how dare he commit a second assault right in front of them?

But to his surprise, after this kick, the Bank Manager, who had originally stopped breathing, jerked his whole body as if he had been electrocuted!

Immediately after, he sat up abruptly from the ground!

His eyes were wide open, filled with terror!

It was as if he had seen something incomparably terrifying, and a fearful sound came from his throat.

"Don't, don't kill me, don't kill me!"

"..."

In an instant, everyone present was stunned.

What was this?

A corpse coming back to life?

Officer Zhang's eyes were about to pop out.

He was absolutely certain that this person had indeed stopped breathing just a moment ago.

Even if it were some state of suspended animation, without any proper medical treatment, could he just come back to life after being kicked once?

And looking at this person's appearance, it seemed he had experienced something terrifying.

"How are you feeling?"

The officer in charge quickly stepped forward to ask.

The Bank Manager acted as if he couldn't hear, his mouth still begging for mercy, "Don't kill me, I beg you, don't kill me..."

At this moment, everyone smelled a foul odor.

Looking down, the Bank Manager's crotch was wet.

He had actually been scared into wetting himself?

"It stinks to death!"

Lin Xiao waved his hand in disgust.

Hearing Lin Xiao's voice, the Bank Manager seemed to wake up from a nightmare, and his eyes immediately turned to Lin Xiao.

Immediately after, he scrambled and stumbled to crawl in front of Lin Xiao, kowtowing while begging for mercy: "I beg you to spare me, I never want to go to hell again! It was truly too terrifying there!"

His words shocked everyone present once again.

Hell?

In other words, he had just been to hell?

Setting aside whether such a place actually existed.

Even if it did exist, it was a place people went to after they died.

How did he get there?

Could it be just because of that kick from Lin Xiao?

Or rather, was Lin Xiao's kick intended to kick him into hell?

This was just too unbelievable!

The Bank Manager was crying with snot and tears, his voice hoarse from shouting, "I was wrong, I was really wrong, the old master wanted to pull out my tongue, it hurt so much!"

Recalling the experience just now, he felt that both his body and mind had suffered severe trauma!

"So noisy, can you shut up for a moment?"

Lin Xiao frowned in displeasure.

The Bank Manager immediately closed his mouth, just continuing to look at Lin Xiao with pleading eyes.

Lin Xiao snorted coldly and asked indifferently, "Do you know you were wrong?"

"I do!"

The Bank Manager nodded vigorously.

"And so?"

"I will take them to open the safe right now!"

The Bank Manager was terrified that if he were a step late, he would be sent back to that terrifying place again.

Seeing the change in his attitude, everyone present couldn't help but be curious.

What exactly did he experience in that so-called hell just now?

After the Bank Manager finished speaking, he didn't dare to delay any longer and immediately scrambled up from the ground.

He didn't even care about his pants being wet with urine and just stumbled toward the outside.

Officer Zhang was the first to react and scolded, "Wait a minute! One moment you want to report a crime, the next you want to leave; what do you think the police station is?"

The Bank Manager was already terrified and was immediately startled, hurriedly waving his hands, "No more reporting a crime, I won't report it! It was all a misunderstanding... No, it was all my fault, my fault!"

"Go, go, go!"

Officer Zhang waved his hand impatiently.

He didn't forget to remind Lin Xiao, "Let today's matter go, but don't cause any more trouble!"

"Uh, okay."

Lin Xiao curled his lips, wondering where he had caused trouble again?

He had clearly helped solve two major issues, hadn't he?

...

Several people soon returned to the bank.

The Bank Manager didn't dare to delay even a bit and went straight to the place where the safe key was kept.

But unexpectedly, he couldn't find the key!

"How could this happen? I clearly remember putting it here!"

This time, he was truly panicked.

Being tossed back and forth like this, Qiu Xiaoyan said displeasedly, "What tricks are you trying to pull again?"

"I'm not!"

The Bank Manager grabbed his hair in a breakdown.

He had lost the safe key; not only would he be punished by his superiors.

More importantly, it was very likely he would be kicked back to that terrifying hell again.

This was what he couldn't accept!

Lin Xiao sighed softly, "Sigh, this time he really didn't do it on purpose. This key must have been lost by someone else."

Hearing Lin Xiao's words, a flash of inspiration suddenly struck the Bank Manager's mind.

"That's right, it must be Little Li! I saw Little Li sneaking around here searching for things earlier; it must have been lost by him!"

"Then where is he?"

Mrs. Qiu asked with a frown.

The Bank Manager opened his mouth, his face turning ugly, "He... he resigned the day before yesterday."
