Lazily Yours.

Chapter 280: An Exemplary Citizen

"You — " Zar's expression changed when he saw two of his subordinates already lying on the floor, lifeless. Not a minute passed since the alarm rung and two of his most trusted people were already dead!

This!

This was something that he never expected.

"I warned you," Lyca smiled as she walked towards her dagger, picking it up and using the bulky man's clothes to wipe the blood from the blade. "I am here to talk about what you can offer for your life. But you were too arrogant. I can't imagine what your father would do once he knew you are already dead. I mean… you are his heir, right?" she mocked.

Lyca thought she had enough time playing around. Moreover, she already restocked her chemicals and Shen Qui should be good after tonight. Meaning, she needed to fix everything tonight.

"You — What do you want?"

"Just wondering how the Long Family convinced you." Shrugging, Lyca sat back on the couch and acted like she didn't just killed two people.

"That is none of your business," he hissed.

"Yeah, I know you would say that." A smile appeared on Lyca's face before a loud band echoed inside the room. She then stared at Zar's lifeless body and approached him. After a few seconds of staring at him, Lyca decided to slit his throat, in case he was still alive after receiving a bullet in his head.

Then she removed her other gun and walked out of the VIP room. "Hm?" she lifted an eyebrow as she looked at the empty space. Logic dictates that Zar's people should be outside waiting to kill her outside of the door. Surely, a measly fire alarm wasn't enough to scare them off, right?

Lyca eyed the ground floor that was as empty as the second floor before she snorted and calmly left the building through the exit. When Lyca opened the door that would lead her to the exit, she soon discovered the reason she felt amiss earlier. Standing in front of her were about ten or fifteen people, all wearing black with high firearms that were pointed at her. She blinked and stared at Chu Yuyan, who walked towards her. "Miss Chu," Lyca smiled. "What a coincidence." She then eyed another man who stood next to Chu Yuyan.

Lyca was certain that this person is not a member of the local Chu Family. This should be the person who came from the main branch.

"Seems like we underestimated your boldness," Chu Yuyan said as she gritted her teeth. Memories of Lyca making her look like a fool instantly filled her head. "You really dared to kill Zar," she snorted.

Lyca's lips lifted, her eyes turned towards Ma Ping who was held by two people in black, a huge bruise can be seen on Ma Ping's face. This man Lyca scratched her cheek. "Why are you here?" she asked, her voice as calm as her face.

"You really dared asked us why are we here? Isn't it obvious? We are here to teach you a lesson! You think you can just kill anyone that you like because you can?"

"Yes." Lyca nodded.

"You— "

"Yuyan, calm down. Let me handle this." The man held Chu Yuyan's arm before his gaze met Lyca's. "I am called— "

"Not interested." Lyca interrupted him. "Do you want to kill me?' she directly asked.

"No," Surprised at her direct question, the man smiled and shook his head. "We are here to apprehend the person who killed young master Zar."

"Oh, then I will leave first. You can check inside and see if the criminal was still there."

"Xi! You are truly asking for death!" Chu Yuyan hissed. How could someone be this shameless!?

"Hm? I came here to party. But there was a fire. If you are looking for Young Master Zar, then you should go inside." She shrugged.

"Did you think, we wouldn't touch you?" Chu Yuyan asked, her eyes red from the anger inside her.

"Why would you touch me? Do you like me?"

"You— "

"Yuyan, just stop. Let me handle this." Again, the man held Chu Yuyan's shoulders. "Miss Xi, I think you need to come with us."

"Why?" Lyca asked.

"Because we all know that you killed Young Master Zar."

"Do you have evidence?" she asked, her face was as stoic as earlier. It was as if the accusations truly had nothing to do with her.

"What evidence!? You are inside! That is enough proof that you killed him! Plus the video footage would confirm that!" Chu Yuyan said.

"Did you see the video footage?"

"…"

"Miss Xi, please come with us. We really don't want to harm you. But what you did was unforgivable," the man said before Chu Yuyan could say something more.

"So, according to your logic, I killed him because I was inside? Then what about the people who were there too?"

"Stop with this nonsense! We all know that they aren't as dangerous as you!"

Lyca smirked. "And what if I don't come with you?"

"Then we will have to forcibly take you," the man answered calmly. It was as if he was someone really used to handling situations like this.

Lyca lifted an eyebrow. "Can you really do that?" she took a single step back. "Really?"

"Miss Xi, please cooperate. We will only bring you to the police station and nothing else. Mr. Zar is an exemplary citizen in this country. How could we let you go after killing him?" the man said.

"Then…" Lyca smiled. "Why don't you try to take me? How about this?" Lyca held both of her arms up and made her voice loud enough for the surrounding people to hear her. "Why don't you try to shoot an unarmed civilian like me? Without proof or any warrant of arrest, I have the right not to go to the police station, and yet you actually brought a SWAT team with high-grade firearms to take me down. Since I refuse to go, why don't you try to shoot me then?" she asked.
