"Raise your head."

The police officer barked a command at Xuxu as he looked at her.

Xuxu softly responded with an 'uh' and slowly lifted her head. She was nervous and her hands clenched tightly into fists on her lap.

When she revealed her face, it didn't surprise her when the police officer looked visibly stunned and dumbfounded. "You… you…"

"Shhh." Xuxu whispered, "Please lower your volume."

"Oh… okay," he indistinctly mumbled and nodded. He was nervous and anxious as he stammered. "You… hmmm... wait here."

His tone was completely different.

He stood up and walked to a different desk and whispered to a colleague who was recording a suspect's statement.

She noticed that the other police officer instantly widened his eyes.

As he glanced at Xuxu, she quickly lowered her head to conceal her face.
