Bab 295: Coercion and Temptation

"Don't move!"

As soon as the dozen or so men in black entered, they shouted loudly. Immediately after, two of them ran towards Ye Shixiao and his daughter, while the rest went forward and surrounded Lin Ran.

"Why is it you again?"

A voice said in surprise. Lin Ran turned around and smiled. "What a coincidence. We met again."

The person who spoke was none other than the black-robed official who stopped and interrogated Lin Ran when Lin Ran and Ye Jin left the city this morning.

"Be serious! Don't be cheeky!"

The official scolded angrily. He frowned and looked at Lin Ran warily. "Were you the one who broke into the city gate just now?"

"Broke into the city gate?"

Lin Ran was stunned for a moment before he reacted. He ignored the saber on his neck and smiled casually. "I came in a hurry just now because I have something urgent to attend to! Besides, it's not curfew yet. I should be allowed to come and go as I wish, right?"
