A Mysterious Man novel Chapter 147

When she wakes up again, Sunny discovers that many people have surrounded her, including some police officers and doctors.

“You’re awake?”

A cold voice sounds, making Sunny tremble. She looks up and finds that it is a police officer.

“What’s wrong, sir?”

The police officer observes Sunny carefully, not revealing any emotions.

“Hello, there has just been a murder, so we’re asking you to help us.”

“Murder?”

Sunny’s head aches at the word. She quickly covers her head.

“Sir, I was just passing by, and someone just hit me in the head, so I fainted. I don’t know what happened next.”

The police officer takes out a knife in a sealed bag with dried blood on it.

“Excuse me, do you remember this knife?”

Sunny stares at it, her eyebrows almost pressing down on her eyes.

“Sorry, I can’t say that I do.”

“Then how do you explain the wound on your hand?”

Following the direction the police officer is pointing, Sunny sees the wound and finds her entire hand red.

“When did this happen?”

The police officer squints coldly at Sunny.

“Alright, Miss, don’t worry. Please follow us to the police station. If you are innocent, we will give you justice.”

“Can I call my friend first?”

The police officer shakes his head.

“Sorry, we won’t return your phone during investigation. If you want to meet anyone, tell us. And we will send someone to his home and invite him to the police station.”

Sunny feels extremely wronged. Tears well in her eyes, about to fall from a single shake.

“No need to find me. The person she wants to see is here!”

They look in the direction where the voice comes from. Immediately after, Sunny pounces on Kevin and cries on his shoulder.

“Kevin, I didn’t do it. I am innocent.”

“I know. It’s fine. With me here, no one dares to lay a finger on you.”

With that, Kevin intends to touch Sunny’s head.

“No.”

Kevin quickly retracts his hand.

“What’s wrong? Does it hurt?”

Sunny nods.

When they are catching up, the police officer interrupts the romance.

“I’m sorry, both of you. It’s a matter of life and death. I hope that you will follow me to the police station as soon as possible.”

Just as Sunny raises her head, Kevin presses it down on his shoulder again, avoiding the place that hurts.

“Don’t worry. From now on, we will cooperate and I will find justice for my wife.”

The police officer glances at them with contempt and then walks to his police car.

“I appreciate that.”

Just as Kevin is about to take a step forward, his man walks over.

“Boss, do you want to take your car or the police car?”

Kevin does not look at him, focusing his sight on the police car.

“Forget it. Don’t give other people the chance to say that I don’t dare to ride in a police car.”

After saying that, Kevin instructs in a low voice,

“Quickly investigate the victim, and find out whom she has been in contact with recently.”

As he speaks, Kevin pulls Sunny to the police car before he can hear an answer.

Actually, he thinks being in the police car is not a big deal. It just feels a little uncomfortable to be watched by outsiders.

However, Sunny is not as calm as him, her hands shaking, looking terrified.

Kevin notices it and holds her hand. When Sunny turns her head to look at him, he smiles. It is very reassuring, and Sunny loosens up a little.

When they arrive at the police station, Sunny and Kevin see two groups of people.

“Officer, did this woman kill my daughter? You must avenge her, sir!”

An old woman says that crying, and she is heard all over the police station.

“Quiet!”

Naturally, the police cannot have her make a scene.

“This is the police station. Please show some respect.”

The old woman quickly shuts her mouth and stops crying.

Kevin is amused, laughing. He has met countless women like her, and they can be bought by money.

“Alright, we need to talk to all the people involved individually. I hope you can cooperate.”

With that, the police officer glances at a young couple. They look like college students.

“Please come in with me.”

Sunny watches them enter, and then she meets the old woman’s eyes. They are fierce and give Sunny a chill.

Kevin sees the fear in Sunny’s eyes and quickly comforts her.

Ten minutes later, the couple come out with a police officer. Then the police officer shouts,

“Next, Sunny.”

Hearing her name, Sunny goggles at the police officer. Kevin notices Sunny’s reaction and quickly says,

“Sorry, sir. My girlfriend is nervous. Can I go in with her?”

“I apologize, sir. But we can’t allow it.”

A voice comes from behind, and then all the police officers salute a middle-aged man.

“Director!”

Kevin glances at him and then says with a smile,

“Mr. Levine, how are you?”

The old woman finds that Kevin and the middle-aged men know each other, quickly sits down on the ground, and hugs the middle-aged man’s legs.

“Mr. Levine, please help me seek justice for my daughter. She was my only child. My husband is still in the hospital. Please don’t go easy on the killer!”

“What are you doing? Let go!”

A police officer shouts as he walks over. He points at the woman’s hands and is about to curse when Mr. Levine stops him. So, he has to stand back.

Mr. Levine squats down and forcefully lets go of the woman’s hands.

“Lady, don’t worry. I’ve been here for several decades. A lot of people know me and are close with me. But I am partial to nobody!”

Hearing that, the woman quickly stands up and retreats to the side.

“It’s fine. I’ll do what I have to do. But this time, I’ll go in with you. That won’t violate the rules, right?”

The police officer changes his attitude and fawns over the director,

“No, no. Most of these rules are set by you according to the relevant laws. So, you should be the last person to violate them.”

Mr. Levine smiles and nods.

Perhaps because this director Levine seems not that serious, Sunny feels less afraid and follows them into the room.

Noticing that Sunny is calm, Kevin is much more relieved. He looks around and finds himself being stared by a group of people. Immediately after, one of them threatens him,

“Don’t think that she can get away because you know the director. Justice is fair. Your girlfriend killed my girlfriend. I will make you pay with blood!”

Kevin looks up and gives him a mocking smile.

“Your girlfriend died in that woods alone. It looks like you enjoy being cheated.”

The man gets so furious that he laughs. Then he points at Kevin’s nose and is about to curse, but Kevin’s furious gaze scares him.

“Shut up, or your words might get you killed.”

After saying that, Kevin shifts his gaze. Then, he discovers his phone is ringing. He takes it out and sees that his subordinate has sent him a text message. Tapping it, he smiles sinisterly at the boyfriend of the dead girl.

This smile is truly frightening. That man trembles and avoids to look at Kevin.

After a while, the two police officers bring Sunny out. Kevin looks at the expression on her face and thinks that it should be fine.

Suddenly, Mr. Levine’s voice is heard by everyone.

“The case is even more complicated than we imagined, but we have no reason to suspect Sunny, so she can leave now.”

Once those words are spoken, the victim’s family members instantly shout,

“We are not convinced! Why can she leave?”

The old woman begins to make a scene and shouts at the top of her lung,

“It’s so unfair! My poor girl died for nothing, and the murderer walks free!”

“You guys are protecting each other! You are so biased! I’m going to sue you!”

As she says that, the victim’s boyfriend pounces towards Sunny. Kevin pulls her behind himself quickly. However, before the boyfriend can get close to them, he is stopped by Mr. Levine.

“Sir, if you want to sue, you can go through the procedures. I am sorry but you are not allowed to harm innocent people under my watch.”

Mr. Levine pushes the man onto the chair. The man wants to struggle, but he can’t move.

“You guys just wait. I will find the evidence. At that time, you will be finished!”

Just as the man finishes speaking, Kevin says,

“You want proof, right? Alright, I’ll give it to you!”

Everyone is surprised to hear that, staring at Kevin.

“Sir, your name is Soren White, right? Then I would like to ask how you and your girlfriend have been doing?”

Everyone can’t be more shocked, eyes on Soren. However, Soren’s face reveals fear and shock.
