Capítulo 7: A Visit To The Police Station.

Having closed the door of the house behind him, and being assured that his mother and sister were now protected after having cast the binding of fate and sensing the pieces of his soul that sounded them today at breakfast, Xiao Ling felt at ease leaving them alone as there was nothing that could hurt them anymore and so he turned around and took a deep breath inhaling the air of the city before letting it out slowly.

Xiao Ling couldn't help but chuckle slightly as he shook his head.

'Ah, The polluted air of The Earth, the air that is nearly devoid of any pure energy. Who would have thought that I would miss even something like this?'

LAughing slightly Xiao Ling started to walk in a random direction while looking like he didn't pay any attention to his sounding.

As He started nearing the edge of the neighborhood Xiao Ling suddenly sensed that he was being watched. Extending his soul sense slightly he started tracking where had this feeling of being watched came from.

He had to extend his soul sense until it had nearly reached the old district that was at the very least a couple of miles away to finally locate who was watching him and upon sensing the familiar aura of who was looking at him from such a long distance Xiao Ling couldn't help but smile Fondly while feeling nostalgia fills his heart.

'Looks like she is curious about how I had managed to wake up yesterday so quickly after suffering that kind of injury. I wonder if she will approach me soon as she had done in my past life. Well, even if she didn't we shall meet sooner or later.'

After using his soul sense to observe the woman that was looking at him from afar without her realizing that he was aware of her existence and that he was looking at her in the same way that she was looking at him, Xiao Ling shook his head and pulled back his soul sense.

'I think it would be much better if I let her come meet me when she feels ready as opposed to me going to meet her right now and frightening her.'

Having pulled back his soul senses back Xiao Ling increased slightly his walking speed as he started heading toward the middle of the city.

As he started to cross from one street to another and started to mingle with the people moving from one place to another, Xiao Ling began looking at the people around him.

The streets were filled with cars speeding one following another, All the people out today early in the morning trying to get the most of the day with it being a weekend.

And the sidewalk as well were filled to the brim with all kinds of people, young couple out on some kind of date or another, Old people trying to get some walking done to remain healthy even in their old ages, some teenagers that stood at the corners while looking at their phone and watch appearing as if they were waiting for someone.

Taking a look at this bunch of mortals moving all around the place while trying not to bump into each other, Xiao Ling couldn't help but smile slightly.

'They are all so carfree enjoying their short lives as much as they could. Something that a lot of immortals should look and try to learn from them regardless of their disdain for them.'

Smiling as he looked at these people that were trying to enjoy their break and weekend despite whatever may be happening in their life Xiao Ling began wondering about how he shall get to the police station as he had realized as soon as he reached here that he didn't know where it was.

He could have spread a small part of his soul senses to cover the entire city and to find out where everything is, but he decided against doing that. For there would be no fun in that, Just using his soul to do everything, That would be against what Xiao ling wanted to do in this life, to take things slowly and enjoy his time.

And so he decided to do what any normal person who didn't know how to get to someplace do.

Asking any random person passing by him to give him direction.

And so that was what he tried to do as he stopped a middle-aged man who was looking at his phone with complete focus.

"Hey, excuse me, but can you point me to the po..."

Xiao Ling couldn't even finish his sentence as the man didn't even glance at him and continued to walk briskly toward his unknown destination.

Xiao Ling looked at the middle-aged man as he disappeared the crowd and shook his head slightly.

'Looks like the mortals of earth are much busier and much more focused on themself than I had thought.'

Without allowing for this to discourage nor annoy him, Xiao Ling tried once more to stop a middle-aged woman to get direction from her, This time she actually stooped to look At Xiao Ling but she didn't even let him finish talking before spouting some nonsense.

"Young man, I will have you know that I'm a married woman and have no intention of ver betraying my husband. You should be ashamed and should try hitting on a girl closer to you in age."

Leaving these words behind her, The middle-aged woman disappeared into the moving crowd.

Instead of being annoyed or angry, Xiao Ling was instead amused immensely by what was going on and the words of the middle-aged woman nearly caused him to start laughing loudly.

Just from where did she get the idea that he was hitting on her and just for what reason did she mention her husband.

Xiao Ling couldn't help but chuckle slightly.

'Asking for directions is starting to be a more challenging task than even facing 12 Gods of war while I was injured.'

Not being discouraged, Xiao Ling once more tried to ask once more for direction, This time from an old lady that was slowly making her through the crowd supported by her walking stick.

"Hey, Auntie, Can I ask you something quickly?"

This time, the elderly woman didn't ignore Xiao Ling and, in fact, she stopped to look at him while a benevolent and warm smile covered her face.

"Of course, Young man. Just what do you need from an old woman like me?"

Xiao Ling smiled as he looked at the old lady who stopped in front of him. She was a woman Of short status and looked to be quite frail as the hand of hers that was holding her walking stick looked to be quite skinny to the point that she was nothing but skin and bone.

"Auntie, how could you be an old lady. To me, you look to be in much better shape than most middle-aged women passing through the street right now."

Hearing the words of the young man standing before her, the old lady couldn't stop her smile from increasing in size slightly. Even though she knew that the young man was just being polite in his words, there wasn't a woman who didn't like hearing that she was in good shape or that she was better than other women no matter her age.

"You exaggerate young man. But, I do try my best in taking a walk every day. Sadly the passage of time is starting to affect. With each passing day, it's only getting hared and harder for me to get out of bed and stand up. But that should e of no concern to you and I apologize for rambling on. So, What was it that you wanted to ask of me?"

"Ah, It's not anything big. I need to get to the police station but I don't know the way to get there. I was wondering if you knew maybe and could point me in the right direction?"

Hearing his words, The old lady frowned slightly as she looked at Xiao Ling and shook her head slightly.

"And what does a young man like you need to do at the police station? I know this may sound like I'm putting my nose where it doesn't belong, but you are a handsome and polite young man. You have a bright future in front of you. So, Take my advice and cut your relationship with whoever it is that you need to visit the police station for. Don't put your future at the line by getting mixed with the wrong crowd."

After listening to the words of the old lady and hearing the real concern in her voice, Xiao Ling raised one of his eyebrows while smiling slightly. He truly appreciated the concern the olf lady had for his future despite not knowing him at all.

"Its nothing like that auntie. I'm just visiting there to fulfill a promise that I had made to a policewoman that had helped me yesterday."

Hearing the words of Xiao Ling the eyes of the old lady started to twinkle with amusement and a teasing smile appeared on her face.

"Ah, So it's about a woman then? She must be a beautiful woman if she could get the attention of a handsome young man like you."

"I'm not interested in her like that auntie. While I'm indeed interested in her its not for anything like what you thinking."

Hearing the words of the old lady Xiao Ling started shaking his head in the negative. For while it was true that miss policewoman was a beautiful woman, rivaling even his mother and little sister, Xiao Ling was much more interested in her because of her ability to control minds.For according to his memories of hid past life, Xiao Ling was certain that people who have special abilities or as had become normal to call them, ESPers, didn't start appearing on earth until nearly 15 years from now.

The old lady laughed slightly before she started pointing with her hands.

"Well, I won't be holding you back anymore and risk causing you to be late to your date with the policewoman. Look, Take that street and take the first exit on the left, Just follow the street after that and you should find yourself right in front of the local police station."

"Thank you. I appreciate your help."

Xiao Ling thanked the Od woman while he put his hand lightly on her's. Deciding to thank the old lady in his own way he focused a little bit of his healing abilities onto her and sent it into her body through her hand. It wasn't much but with this, she will be surprised that starting tomorrow she will be able to walk without having to depend on her walking stick and her bone won't ache for the rest of her life.

Having paid back the old lady for her help, Xiao Ling began following the directions she had given him.

After following her instruction for a couple of minutes, Xiao Ling found himself finally standing in front of the police station.

This police station looked like any other normal police station. It had a large sign above it glass dorrs that spelled that it was indeed the police station. It looked exactly as Xiao Ling had expected. Well, except for one thing, The expensive-looking porch car that was parked in front of the police station.

Without even taking another look at the expensive-looking car Xiao Ling entered into the police station.

On the inside, it was nearly completely quiet and there was not one person standing at the entrance. Without taking a look at the walls that looked like they desperately needed to be repainted nor at the roof that looked like it will collapse at any moment Xiao Ling started walking forward deep into the building.

As he headed toward the direction counter where there sat one overweight middle-aged man who looked like he was about no nod off sleeping Xiao Ling began wondering how he would ask about miss policewoman As he didn't know her name.

Deciding to just go for it, Xiao Ling approached the counter and started speaking nearly startling the overweight man.

"Hey, I'm looking for a policewoman who told me to come to meet her here. I didn't get her name last time but she was very beautiful and I doubt there are any as beautiful as here working here. So, Can you take me to her?"

The overweight man rubbed his eyes with his fat finger before looking at Xiao Ling. It apparently took a while for his brain to process his words but after a couple of seconds of vacant staring, he finally pointed toward one corridor suited at the left of the counter.

"I know who you are talking about. There isn't another beautiful woman beside her who works here. In fact, she is the only woman who works here. Just go down that corridor, her office is the last room on your right. Just knock before going in."

After hearing his word, Xiao Ling nodded his head, Thanked him for the direction and started heading down the corridor while wondering in his heart.

'Is it just me or was that too easy? Like I expected a couple of question's regarding why I wanted to meet her or something but I just got pointed toward her. I really wonder if a guy like that is fit to be a policeman.'

Shaking his head, Xiao Ling continued heading down the corridor and after a couple of seconds he reached the end of it and stood facing the last door on his right. Just as he was about to knock on the door he heard voices of people speaking, or people arguing to be more specific, that came from the inside of the room.

"Zeong Jian, how many times must I tell you this. I have no intention of ever going out with you. I don't want anything to with you. If you don't stop bothering me, I shall take this matter into court as your behavior is becoming like that one of a stalker. Stop Showing at my place of work. Stop sending me gifts and just leave me alone. Now get out of here. Leave."

"Hmph, fine then. You truly don't understand what is best for you. You shall regret those words of yours one day."

As he stood there listening to what he recognized as the voice of miss policewoman shout at someone, Xiao Ling couldn't help but sigh slightly.

'Look like I came at the wrong time.'

As he stood there wondering what he should do, The door suddenly opened and out came a Young man who appeared to be in his mid-twenties.

The young man who Xiao Ling assumed was called Zeong Jian based on what he heard had short cut black hair with a cleanly shaven face and a sharp chin and was wearing an expensive-looking suit.

Zeong Jian's angry expression suddenly changed to one of a surprise when he laid his eyes on Xiao Ling but that expression of surprise lasted for only a fleeting thought before anger returned to cover his face once more.

"Move out of the way you piece of trash."

As he said these words, Zeong Jian reached with his hand intending to push Xiao Ling to the side, But Xiao Ling remained standing in his place without moving a single inch.

The expression of surprise once more returned to cover the face of Zeong Jian. Even as he put all his strength into his hand, he found out and to his shock that he couldn't move the guy standing before him. He felt as if he was trying to push a mountain. A feat that was impossible to accomplish.

After trying for a couple more seconds without any success, Zeong Jian pulled back his hand and having given up on trying to move Xiao Ling he used the space that was left open near him to walk out and start walking out of the police station while cursing under his breath.

"Trash, All of the pieces of trashes that don't their pace. First, that woman who doesn't know when a fortune had fallen on her and now that arrogant asshole. *Hmph*. All of them shall learn their lesson. I Shall make sure of that."

Having heard the words that he had muttered under his breath, Xiao Ling sighed slightly and shook his head while moving his eyes from looking at the back of Zeong Jian.

'Calm down, Xiao Ling. Just calm down. There is no need to get angry over something as insignificant as this. There is no need to kill him over something as small as this. Just calm down. Pull back your soul energy. Just calm down'

After reigning in his emotion, Xiao Ling turned around and entered into the office leaving the door open.

Taking a look around the office, it looked as he had expected based on the state of the rest of this police station. It was in bad shape. And besides the state of the office, it was nearly empty save for one nearly empty bookshelf and a small desk that was in the middle of the room.

Coughing to get her attention, The policewoman who was sitting at the desk raised her head to which she had lowered down.

"Didn't I tell you to leave me alone already. Do you truly think i..."

Before she had even raised her head completely to look at him, The policewoman began talking using her angry tone of voice. She had probably thought that he was Zeong Jiang who had came back.

After she had finally raised her head and looked at him, her words died in her throat as she bushed slightly realizing her mistake.

Xiao Ling chuckled slightly looking at her before raising one of his eyebrows as he started speaking in a joking tone of voice.

"You forced me yesterday to promise you to come to meet you today and I had even woken up so early in the morning on a weekend and had to overcome countless hurdles to reach her, but now you tell me to leave you alone? Truly no one can understand women."

Hearing his words the policewoman chuckled slightly herself and she felt her bad mood get better slightly by his joking words. As a small smile appeared on her face she responded to the words of Xiao Ling But now her tone of voice was a Joking one instead of the angry one she had used before.

"Hmph, Who told you to shower up with blood before going out into the street. Of course, I would be suspicious of you."

Hearing her words Xiao Ling laughed slightly before nodding his head.

"Well, I admit, I did indeed look suspicious yesterday."

The policewoman snorted playfully before she pointed toward one of the two seats that were placed in front of her desk.

Getting her invitation, Xiao Ling entered deeper into the office before taking a seat on of the two chairs. As he did so the policewoman looked at his, Took a deep breath and started to apologize.

"I apologize for what happened earlier. My angry words weren't directed at you."

Xiao Ling just smiled ad waved her apology with one of his hands.

"There is no need for you to apologize. I already knew that you thought I was someone else. It was just an honest mistake."

Hearing his response she smiled slightly in appreciation for his words.

After seeing her smile, Xiao Ling nodded his head before continuing to speak.

"Well, I'm here as promised. So, What shall we do now? You want to ask me something?"

Hearing the words of Xiao Ling, The policewoman couldn't help but open up her eyes slightly in surprise. She had expected him to ask her about who she had intended her words for, Ask her what was all that arguing about, But he simply just ignored all of that. She truly didn't expect that.

After looking for a long time in silence at him while he continued to stare at her similarly with that confident smile of his. She couldn't help but sigh and shake her head slightly and try to answer his question.

"Well, I didn't expect for you to truly show up as you had promised. In fact, I was nearly convinced that I would need to track you down and drag you here myself."

"Well, I'm a man who keeps his promises. For what is the worth of a man who breaks his words and promises?"

Hearing his words the beautiful policewoman smiled slightly while nodding with her head.

"Ah, How I wish more people had that kind of mindset and stood by it. Well, I don't want to take too much of your time and I'm similarly tired. So, I will get straight to the point. What happened yesterday that caused you to be injured like that?"

"Someone tried to kidnap my sister, You saw her, She was walking with me yesterday. Well, I tried to save her and one of the people who tried to kidnap her injured me."

"What? Someone tried to kidnap your little sister? Why didn't you say so yesterday? Do you know the name of who did that so we can launch an investigation into the matter?"

"The name of one of them is Fen Dong but there is no need for a police investigation or anything of the sort. I Shal handle the matter myself."

"Fen Dong? Are you referring perhaps to the eldest son of the Fen family?"

"Yes, I think he is their heir or something like that."

After hearing him confirm her theory, The policewoman couldn't help but sigh as she slumped and leaned back into her chair. For she knew that she couldn't do anything if the matter involved someone from the Fen family. Even if she did launch an investigation unto him it would result simply in it getting dropped and nothing would come out of it.

Seeing the beautiful face of the young policewoman gets covered by an expression of slight defeat, Xiao Ling guessed easily what could have caused it and so he tried to cheer her up slightly.

"There is no need for you to get worried about this matter. As I had told you, No need to involve the law. I shall deal with Fen Dong myself."

Hearing his words the young policewoman raised her head while her eyes were open in surprise.

"What do you mean you will deal with him? You do know right that he is the heir to the Fen Family, One of the biggest and strongest clans in our city? Don't do something stupid that would put yourself and your family in danger."

Hearing her word's Xiao Ling nearly started laughing out loud. If only she knew what he had done to the Fen family in his past life She wouldn't be saying things like this. But still, She didn't know that Xiao Ling had already Dealt with them once before and could deal with much more ease than before this time.

Still, He appreciated her being worried about him and his family specifically.

"There is no need for you to worry yourself, miss policewoman. I know who Fen Dong is and I know what his clan is capable of. Believe me, I won't do anything that will put my family in danger. Not will I be in danger myself."

Hearing his confident words The policewoman shook her head slightly. She couldn't believe it herself, But for some reason and deep in her heart she believed every word that Xiao Ling had said despite how ridiculous they sounded. He, Someunkown guy, Deal with The heir to one of the largest Clans in the city. And the way he had said that made it sound like he could so with extreme ease. Truly utterly ridiculous words, but she couldn't stop her heart from believing him slightly.

Her curiosity regarding this mysterious guy named Xiao Ling started to grow in her heart.

After a coupe second of silence between the two of them, Xiao Ling began rising from his seat.

"Well, If this is everything I shall be taking my leave now miss policewoman. I want to take a walk through the city and try to get back home by launch time."

"Ah, alright then. Unfortunately, my hands are tied if the matter truly involved The Fen Familly so this is everything and you may leave. Please close the door behind you."

The policewoman nodded her head after hearing the words of Xiao Ling. She couldn't say anything else besides a couple words of acknowledgment.

After Xiao Ling closed the door of her office behind him and started the trip back to the entrance and to the outside of the police station he suddenly realized one thing.

'I still haven't gotten her name.'

Xiao Ling smiled slightly before shaking his head.

'There shall be more opportunities in the future for me to learn of her name. I have a feeling that this won't be the last meeting between me and miss policewoman.'
