Chapter 2582

The police chief looked at the handcuffed trespassers and then at the colleagues that Rain spoke of.

All of those who invaded the house had bruised noses and swollen eyes. Their faces were injured tocertain extents, while Rain's subordinates were not injured at all, at least not on the surface.

"Would good citizens beat up others so badly?" The police chief did not believe her.

"They were all armed with daggers and rods. We acted in self-defense," Rain explained while shelooked at the stairs.

Leia had come downstairs.

Rain pointed to the direction of the stairs and said, "That's Mr. Norman's daughter in A City and behindher is the colleague we assigned to protect her."

The police chief looked in the direction she was pointing, saw Leia, and nodded.

He knew of Leia, naturally.

After all, everyone knew of what happened previously. There were still ongoing gossip materials abouther on the internet.

Therefore, the police chief was familiar with such a 'superstar.'

He looked at Leia's sallow face and could not help but sigh when he thought about all that Jack haddone for the people. He was worthy of admiration by those in the political world.novelbin

However, his only failure was having a daughter like Leia.

Even though public opinion on the internet did not blame Jack for not disciplining his ill-mannereddaughter, everyone knew that Leia was not only bad-natured. She was who she was because she was

spoiled.

The police chief stepped forward and said, "Ms. Norman, please come to the police station with us. Weneed your cooperation to record your statement."

Leia ignored him and went downstairs. She glanced at the smile on Rain's face and felt that hermockery was because she was able to see through her.

Leia even felt that she might not be able to come out if she went to the police station with them.

Leia refused. "I'm not going."

"You're a witness. You have to work with us for our investigation," the police chief said.

"I'm not feeling well right now. I can record a statement, but it'll have to be done at the hospital." Leiasat on the sofa and pretended to be weak.

Before Leia could answer, Rain mockingly said, "How is it possible? She was hiding in the cornerbehind the sofa while Mr. Norman and the others were being held hostage. She did nothing but screama few times. Those people didn't even notice her."

Luca called her the moment those men stormed into Norman Residence.

Even if she was not there when it started, she could roughly estimate the situation by listening to thesound.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Be careful of what you say. Otherwise, I'll tear your mouthapart!" Leia's tone was vicious and full of anger.

The police chief frowned.

Leia added, "I just had a liver transplant. I was frightened today and now I feel like something is wrong.Please call an ambulance for me."

The police chief shook his head helplessly and thought that the matter at hand was troublesome.

However, since the incident happened at Jack's house, he had to deal with it well or his future would bebleak.

Some time ago, the police management emphasized ensuring the safety of the citizens. Now that sucha thing happens in an official's house, he would be held accountable by various parties if it was nothandled properly.

"Call an ambulance," the police chief said.

At the same time, Rain said to the subordinate who followed Leia, "Go to the hospital with theambulance later to ensure the safety of Ms. Norman."

She deliberately dragged the word 'safety.'

"No need, I don't trust your people." Leia tried to call Mandy Sanders just now to inform her that themission had failed.

However, Rain's subordinate was by her side, so she could only hide in the bathroom to send a text tonotify Mandy that she and others should not wait around the area.

That was because the men working for them have all been detained by the police.

"You can trust my people. Besides, we can't be sure about the ambulance that'll be coming later."Seeing that she was worried, Rain turned to look at the police chief and said, "Chief, I'm worried thatthose from the same gang will hide in the ambulance. Why don't you send two police officers to go tothe hospital along with Ms. Norman? The lady of our house is also there, and her condition isn't

serious, so the police can record a statement at any time. She's also one of the witnesses who werepresent. "

"Okay." The police chief agreed.

At the same time, a policeman said, "Chief, I think there are surveillance cameras here, so I want tohave a look through. Can I apply for it now?"

"Make a copy of the surveillance footage and fill out the application form when the time comes." Thepolice chief was worried that someone would switch the surveillance footage after they left, so heplanned to take the footage with them and fill in the application later.

"Okay." The policeman nodded and looked at Leia. "Ms. Norman, where's the security room?"

"How would I know?" Leia rolled her eyes and looked uncooperative.

The policeman was speechless and looked at the police chief.

Rain smiled and said, "Ms. Norman, didn't you just say that this is your home? How could you not knowwhere the security room is? Are you a fake?"

"What nonsense are you talking about?! I'm Leia Norman. What's wrong with you?!" Leia crossed herlegs and shouted at Rain.

"In that case, why don't you know where it is? If you obstruct the police in their investigation, you'll beheld accountable. The villa is so big. They can surely find the security room if they open each room tocheck. Whether you cooperate or not, the police will be able to obtain the footage. However, what's thereason for your non-cooperation? Could it have something to do with you?" Rain usually opted to keepquiet.

However, it was when she was upset that she would talk a lot.

"If you go on with this nonsense, I'll sue you for slander." Leia raised her hand and pointed at Rain, herarm trembling uncontrollably.

Rain shrugged nonchalantly.

Seeing that the situation was getting out of hand, the police chief had no choice but to ask, "Ms.Norman, where's the security room of the villa?"

"The first room on the left," Leia had no choice but to blurt it out.

When they heard that, the police followed the direction she said and saw the room, so they pushed thedoor and went in. They used their professional equipment and copied the surveillance footage coveringthe entire villa.

It included footage from the surveillance cameras installed by the Normans outside the house.

At the same time, another ambulance arrived at Norman Residence. The paramedics saw thateveryone seemed fine, so they asked curiously, "Did someone call an ambulance? Where's thepatient?"

"Here." Leia stood up.

The paramedics frowned. "Where are you feeling unwell?"

"My liver is not feeling well. Take me to the hospital," Leia said as she walked out.

The paramedics were slightly taken aback as they had not seen anyone who could walk by themselvescall an ambulance.

Rain looked at Leia as she walked away and nodded to her subordinates.

Her subordinates followed immediately behind Leia.

The police chief also assigned two officers to follow Leia to the hospital.

After the paramedics and Leia left, the police chief asked, "Ma'am, now can you tell me who is yourlady of the house?"

"She's not exactly a lady..." Rain said, "I was just trying to scare them."

She was referring to the men who tried to kidnap Luca.
