“What did you say?”
In that moment, Director Huang was starting to wonder if there was a problem with his hearing .
The other crime squad members were stunned, too, but none of them were as shocked as Bo Jiu .
She struggled to maintain her composure, but her racing heart couldn’t lie .
Either, the Almighty already knew her identity, or…
Qin Mo’s gaze remained firm . “The person is Z . ”
Director Huang was thoroughly confused, making a turn . “No, you mean Z is the person that had protected the plaza? The one that stopped the network attack?”
Qin Mo humphed plainly .
Director Huang grabbed his hair . “This situation, this situation… This isn’t possible!”
“Why isn’t it possible?” Qin Mo lifted his lids .
Director Huang felt frustration burning through him . “Let me get this straight . You mentioned that the mastermind is actually a serial crime instigator, and now you are saying that Z helped stopped the attack . So do you mean that we aren’t after Z?”
“I reminded you,” Qin Mo replied .
Director Huang inhaled deeply since thanking a criminal was too much for him and on top of that, he was a mess inside .
Why was Qin Mo still speaking up for Z?
He knew Qin Mo too well .
If he really hated a criminal, he would never be acting in such a manner .
Director Huang took a moment before looking at Qin Mo with a worry that had never been there before . “You are still acting in such a manner with regards to Z . Qin Mo, even if you treasure Z for her ability, she is still a criminal . Do you understand?”
Qin Mo remained emotionless . “Let’s first talk about how you are going to give your thanks . ”
Director Huang choked while Qin Mo moved his left hand .
Bo Jiu, who was the concerned person, raised a brow . “We’re going?”
It seemed like the Almighty hadn’t guessed her identity yet, it was all still a suspicion .
But this wasn’t bad since she got to hear the remark and the Almighty wasn’t that against her after all .
He treasured her for her ability? That was how she felt about him as well .
There hadn’t been a captor she had wanted to bring home .
However, his next line made her heart still and brought her mood slowly down .
“As for her criminal status, I know it better than anyone else . ”
Bo Jiu tilted her head, her hair falling to shield her eyes .
That was also a matter she was very aware of .
Hence, she couldn’t kidnap him .
Because he was the Almighty and both of them would be badly wounded from a battle…
On the other end, the crime squad members were still trying to process the news .
They were still wondering how to report this matter to the higher-ups .
Director Huang, on the other hand, knew that Qin Mo had made things clear at this moment due to the changes made to the case .
There were some matters that Director Huang understood and naturally, Bo Jiu understood as well .
If they weren’t of such identities, they would perhaps be able to treasure each other .
However, that would never be possible because she was Z ━ someone born into the darkness .
There were things she needed to protect, just like how there were things the Almighty had to protect…
Outside, it started to rain, bringing the temperature down .
