Hearing Chief Inspector Bai's words, Zhang Beixing was completely dumbfounded.
He rubbed his ears, doubting whether he had misheard.
Dead?
That can't be right!
"Chief Inspector Bai, you must be joking with me!" Zhang Beixing's mouth twitched as he forced a strained smile.
Chief Inspector Bai has a dark sense of humor, Zhang Beixing thought. How could he make a joke like this? If he, Zhang Beixing, didn't know he was just a weak, pitiful, and helpless university student, he might have actually believed him and thought he'd killed someone.
"How could I possibly kill someone? I only punched them and knocked them unconscious, that's all! Stop kidding around, this is absolutely not…" Zhang Beixing began to defend himself, trying to clear his name.
But gradually, the words died in his throat.
