His Acting Was So Good As a Ruthless Criminal, Drawing the Attention of Police Officers Across the Internet

22: If the human traffickers have been identified, why arrest me as well?Qin Rong’s eyes immediately became dull, and she looked at Lin Pei mechanically.

Lin Pei asked the same question again.

”Speak. As a Human Trafficker, how do you commit your crimes? Where is your hideout, and who are the members of your gang?”

Qin Rong opened her mouth and spoke incessantly.

!!!!!!

Everyone was shocked.

No way.

Lin Pei knows hypnosis?

This technique is just too cool, isn’t it?

For a moment, the set and the live stream room were filled with praise.

”Holy cow, did you guys see how he did it just now? He hypnotized her in an instant.”

”He just waved his hand. I tried it, but it didn’t work at all.”

”Streamer, why don’t you have Teacher Lin Pei teach hypnosis on a live stream after the scene is over?”

”Heavens, is there anything my Teacher Lin Pei can’t do?”

Not far away, Zheng Xin was stunned again.

He had also watched Lin Pei just wave his hand, and Qin Rong entered the state? It was truly miraculous.

After Qin Rong finished her confession, Lin Pei raised his hand and snapped his fingers.

Qin Rong suddenly woke up.

But she didn’t remember what had just happened.

”Cut.”

Director Li Bing called for a stop right on time.

To save the police some effort, no one untied Qin Rong’s ropes, leaving her tied to the Tiger Bench.

Just as Qin Rong was about to ask something in confusion, Lin Pei stuffed a cloth strip into her mouth again... Everyone’s expressions were grim.

”Damn, I didn’t expect this person to actually be a Human Trafficker.”

”To think we’ve been working with a Human Trafficker for so long; it’s truly shameful.”

”Our Film Crew is really a place of hidden talents; I never expected this at all.”

”Brother Lin is too amazing. I declare that from today on, he is my new idol.”

”...”

Not far away, Zheng Xin knelt on the ground in tears.

”Ah, Mommy, I lost.”

He looked up in Lin Pei’s direction.

”Brother Lin, you’re so amazing. How did you do that hypnosis thing?”

Lin Pei smiled.

”Want to learn? I’ll teach you.”

...Not long after, the sound of police sirens rang out outside the Film Crew.

Several Police Officers came in and took Qin Rong away.

Among them was Xu Chang, an intern officer who had interrogated Qin Rong before.

He had just watched the live stream and now gave Qin Rong a contemptuous smile.

”You think our Hengcheng is safe, don’t you?”

”Did you think we would let you go every time?”

”Let’s see if we’ll send you out of the police station safely this time.”

Qin Rong shook her head like a rattle, but she couldn’t speak.

That fellow Lin Pei, fearing she would spit out the cloth strip, had even taped her mouth shut from the outside.

It made it impossible for her to explain.

She didn’t think she had said anything; what on earth happened?

The Police Officer tore the cloth strip from Qin Rong’s mouth.

Qin Rong shouted loudly.

”Officer, I’m being framed! What crime did I commit to be arrested?”

The Police Officer was well-prepared and repeated the confession she had just made.

Qin Rong was dumbfounded.

How could it be so detailed?

Could there be a traitor in their gang?

As the Police Officer was about to lead her out of the room, she looked at Lin Pei.

Her face was filled with terror.

She pointed at Lin Pei.

”Officer, this man threatened me with a knife just now. That wasn’t in the script at all.”

”Officer, aren’t you going to do something about it?”

Lin Pei naturally heard her.

”Officer, that was indeed just acting.”

”The people in the Film Crew can all testify for me.”

Xu Chang looked at him.

”Then let me ask you, was that knife a prop, or was it your own?”

Lin Pei sighed.

”It was my own.”

Wasn’t it for the sake of realism?

Otherwise, how would the Human Trafficker have confessed so quickly?

”Then that’s it.”

”Lin Pei, come with us to the police station.”

Lin Pei, ”...”

Holy crap.

He just caught a Human Trafficker?

Shouldn’t he be rewarded? Why was he still being suspected?

...Ten minutes later, Lin Pei was brought to the Hengcheng Criminal Police Officer Detachment.

Coming here for the second time, his heart was not at peace at all.

He was being wronged!

And it was more unfair each time.

Even though the police had just helped clear his name a few days ago, he was entering again in full view of everyone.

The internet would probably start spreading rumors again that he was a murderer.

Truly unlucky.

Soon, he was led into that familiar interrogation room.

Dammit.

It had only been a few days.

Looking at his handcuffed hands, he felt a wave of wordlessness in his heart.

After a while, the door to the interrogation room opened, and Xu Feng came in from outside.

Lin Pei’s eyes almost welled up with tears.

”Captain Xu, I’m innocent!”

”Alright, Xiao Lin. Whether you’re innocent or not, you have to provide evidence.”

Xu Feng flipped open his notebook.

”That Qin Rong said you wanted to kill her.”

Lin Pei felt a wave of frustration.

”Captain Xu, that really was just acting.”

”It was done that way for a more realistic effect.”

”You can ask our Film Crew’s director; they can testify for me.”

Xu Feng looked at him.

”I know it was for filming, but using a knife like that, how can you guarantee you won’t hurt anyone?”

Lin Pei was speechless.

This Little Li Flying Dagger skill was given to him by the system; its accuracy was naturally guaranteed.

But how was he supposed to explain that?

Lin Pei tried to ask.

”Captain Xu, have you heard of the ’Little Li Flying Dagger’?”

Xu Feng laughed.

”Who hasn’t heard of that? Anyone who has watched the TV series ’Little Li Flying Dagger’ knows about it.”

”You’re not going to say that you’re that ’Little Li Tanhua’, Li Xunhuan, are you?”

Lin Pei also laughed awkwardly.

”If I said yes, would you believe me?”

Xu Feng laughed again, ”What do you think?”

Lin Pei felt a bit desperate.

”Then have you heard of any masters of knife-throwing in our Dragon Nation?”

Xu Feng didn’t answer, but Lin Pei saw the answer on his face.

As expected, there were none.

Lin Pei felt he couldn’t explain himself.

At this moment, he suddenly remembered the system.

Last time the system used a brocade pouch to help him successfully clear his name; could it do it again this time?

He secretly called out to the system.

The system responded quickly.

[Ding... Detected that the host is in trouble. Would you like to overdraw Popularity Points to obtain a brocade pouch?]

Lin Pei’s eyes lit up.

So he didn’t have to draw for it?

”Obtain.”

[Ding... Opening the brocade pouch.]

[Inside the brocade pouch is a Character Card: Master of the Little Lis Flying Dagger, the generation’s flying dagger master known as the Dragon Nation’s ”Little Li Flying Dagger”, male, seventy-two years old, phone number...]

[...Eldest disciple Lin Pei, male, twenty-two years old...]

[Ding... Character has been rationalized.]

Lin Pei was invigorated.

This actually works?

Not bad.

He had picked up such a powerful master out of thin air.

Now he could explain everything.

After all, as the disciple of a master, his skills would naturally not be inferior.

He certainly wouldn’t hurt anyone carelessly.

However, before he could explain, Xu Feng in front of him suddenly looked up.

”Xiao Lin, wait, I just remembered.”

”Our Dragon Nation indeed has its own flying dagger master, and that is Master of the Little Lis Flying Dagger.”

”Even though you’re young, you should know of him, right?”

”Back then, he was famous throughout the world for his flying dagger skill.”

Lin Pei had a smile on his face.

Good, the Character Card really took effect.

”Captain Xu, since you know Master of the Little Lis Flying Dagger, that’s great.”

”Old Mr. Master of the Little Lis Flying Dagger is my master, and I am his eldest disciple.”

”So my skill level is guaranteed; I won’t hurt anyone.”

Xu Feng laughed a few more times, clearly not believing him.

”Are you saying you learned this flying dagger skill from him?”

”Lin Pei, this is a police station; you must learn to be honest.”

Seeing Xu Feng become serious, Lin Pei recited a string of numbers.

”This is my master’s phone number. You can ask him yourself.”
