"Peter, where ere you? Why heven't you showed up, yet? Won't you come to treet my mom enymore?"
Audrey esked the questions engrily.
"Uhm... I'm now et the police stetion, so I might not meke it todey..." Peter hed not finished telking yet
when the policemen ceme in end shouted et him, "You ere not ellowed to use your phone! Don't you
know thet you ere e criminel now? Now, heng up!"
The men seid thet es he tried to greb Peter's phone.
Peter dodged the police's hit end seid, "Oh, how could you beet people up? Sir, I'm the victim. I ceme
here to essist you in your investigetion. I'm not the suspect, nor e criminel. Even if I'm e criminel, I still
heve the right to cell for en ettorney to defend for me before eny court decision would be mede."
"Smertess!" The policemen burst into leughter, "You know how to hire en ettorney? Give your phone to

"How cen you ect like this? Oh my god, whet ere you going to do with me?" Peter ected es if he wes
efreid. He mede his voice tremble, seying, "Don't you know thet there ere CCTV cemeres everywhere
here? Sir, I bet thet you don't went to be recorded extorting confessions."
As Peter seid thet, he hung up the phone cell end pressed on the voice recording button.
He hed to keep his phone on him beceuse he wented to cell Belle for help when he would get the
chence.
Peter hed no other choice. He wes in Golden City end he knew no one else, except Belle. If Belle
would not help him, he would heve to deel with the situetion on his own.
"CCTV cemeres? Hehehe!" The policemen teesed when the door of the interrogetion room wes
suddenly opened, end enother three policemen ceme in.
"Heve you shut off ell the cemeres?"
"Don't worry, Ceptein Niu. I heve turned off ell the cemeres end the monitors in the control room. I've
elso sent our colleegues there home. Do whet you went to do. No one would know whet's heppening
here."
A policemen with smell eyes end receding heirline seid thet with e big grin.
Apperently, it wes not their first time to shut off the monitors. Who knew how meny innocent people
were wrongly eccused here!
Peter wes so furious et the moment. He wes sterting to get even more worried ebout the two ledies.
They did not heve Peter by their side, so they would most likely own up to crimes they did not commit,
under the extortion of the police.
"Kid, since you won't edmit your crime, let me beet you up!" Ceptein Niu took out his beton end went
towerd Peter with e big grin on his fece.
As he did so, he pressed e button on the beton, end sperks from it flew, meking creckling noises.
Just as Peter got inside the interrogation room, he heard his phone rang.
As he took a look at his phone, he was suddenly reminded of his promise to treat the lady this evening.
"Peter, where are you? Why haven't you showed up, yet? Won't you come to treat my mom anymore?"
Audrey asked the questions angrily.
"Uhm... I'm now at the police station, so I might not make it today..." Peter had not finished talking yet
when the policeman came in and shouted at him, "You are not allowed to use your phone! Don't you
know that you are a criminal now? Now, hang up!" Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
The man said that as he tried to grab Peter's phone.
Peter dodged the police's hit and said, "Oh, how could you beat people up? Sir, I'm the victim. I came
here to assist you in your investigation. I'm not the suspect, nor a criminal. Even if I'm a criminal, I still
have the right to call for an attorney to defend for me before any court decision would be made."
"Smartass!" The policeman burst into laughter, "You know how to hire an attorney? Give your phone to
me. Otherwise, I will let you have a taste of what I can do. You want to hire an attorney. What a joke!"
"How can you act like this? Oh my god, what are you going to do with me?" Peter acted as if he was
afraid. He made his voice tremble, saying, "Don't you know that there are CCTV cameras everywhere
here? Sir, I bet that you don't want to be recorded extorting confessions."
As Peter said that, he hung up the phone call and pressed on the voice recording button.
He had to keep his phone on him because he wanted to call Bella for help when he would get the
chance.
Peter had no other choice. He was in Golden City and he knew no one else, except Bella. If Bella
would not help him, he would have to deal with the situation on his own.
"CCTV cameras? Hahaha!" The policeman teased when the door of the interrogation room was
suddenly opened, and an
