Liu Jianguo unscrewed the tea bottle containing wolfberries and took a sip, his eyes fixed on the girl who was being comforted by the female police officer in the distance.
She was the girl who jumped into the river before. As a policeman for so many years, he had seen more people than most people, but he had never seen such a beautiful girl.
She looks like a 17 or 18-year-old high school student, but an ordinary high school student would never look like this.
Clear and bright pupils, curved eyebrows, slightly trembling long eyelashes, fair and flawless skin with a faint blush, and thin lips as tender as rose petals.
Such a beauty coupled with that hot body attracted all the attention of people, whether they came to report a case or to handle business.
Liu Jianguo couldn't help but sigh, maybe this is what young people call an angel face and a devil figure.
"Uncle Liu, I just checked on the computer, but didn't find anyone named Gao Zhiming. It is very likely that this person is not from our city." Zhou Tao looked a little puzzled.
Liu Jianguo tightened his teacup and looked at his partner and junior. "To be honest, I really want to meet this man. He must be a beast to let down such a beautiful girl."
"Yes, look how pitiful she is." Zhou Tao looked at Anna with heartache in his eyes, and his feet involuntarily moved towards that side.
Liu Jianguo saw his expression and patted him on the body, "Hey, pay attention to your image. Don't forget who you are now."
While the two of them were talking, the female police officer who was asking questions stood up and walked towards them.
"She said her name was Anna."
"Foreign name? How do you find out? Did you find out her real name?"
"No, she refused to reveal any information other than this. I tried various methods to test her but it was useless. It seems that the girl has not yet recovered from her emotional injury."
Liu Jianguo thought for a moment and then said, "Oh, by the way, when I brought her here, I saw a red box in her hand. What's in it? Maybe this is a clue."
The female police officer shook her head. "I don't know. She refused to let me see. After all, she is not a criminal. Judging from her age, she should still be in school. I can't just force her to take it away. If she cries, it will be difficult to deal with."
"Hey, this should have been a very common accident, but it turned out to be a bit tricky. Logically speaking, this girl is so beautiful, it is impossible that no one noticed her. After she calms down, I will take her fingerprints first."
The hall was very noisy, with people talking, keyboards typing, leather shoes hitting the floor, all kinds of sounds surrounded Anna.
But these sounds are so familiar and strange to Anna. She has memories of this place, but she doesn't belong here.
The noises around her made Anna's bad mood even more irritable. She wanted to become her former self and wipe out all the people who made these noises and make them quiet down completely.
However, she couldn't do that now, because she was no longer the man-eating monster from the Earthsea, but a weak girl.
Anna put down the disposable teacup in her hand and took out the wedding ring again.
This is a very beautiful diamond ring, which is brilliant, crystal clear and translucent. In the middle of the white diamonds is a giant black diamond weighing 200 carats. Jewelry of this quality is priceless both in the sea and on the surface.
Anna looked at the ring with a complicated expression. She suddenly picked it up and was about to put it on her ring finger.
As soon as she put it on, Anna felt that the ring was a little uncomfortable to hold. When she took it off and reached inside with her finger, she found a small roll of paper on the inner side of the ring.
"Hello dear Anna.
If you see this letter, it should mean that you have returned to the surface. You must hate me now, right? But this is the best way I have thought of after thinking about it for so many days. "
"You must think I will go back to the surface, right? I want to go back. I really miss my old home, but I can't go back. They are targeting me."
"I am the chosen one of Idik. I also have the mark of Futan on my body. The most important thing is the appearance of 005. I believe that these are by no means accidental."
"No matter what they want to do, if I really return to the surface, it will bring the disaster of Earthsea up there. I can't do that."
"We have families on the surface of the Earthsea, including my crew and you. I want to protect you. Secondly, I do feel a little reluctant."
"Why? Why do we have to linger under the shadow of God! Why are we humans being wiped out like ants? Think about the God of Light, think about the Foundation. Every time I experience something in Earthsea, the resentment in my heart grows, so I want to give it a try."
"Are you surprised? I actually agree with you? Yes, I have always agreed with you. I just don't agree with you doing this because it's too dangerous."
"Especially in your last period, you became more and more extreme, and even sacrificed two million people to gain power. I have a feeling that if you stay in the Earthsea any longer, there will be big problems, and we may even kill each other."
"What is a god? None of us knows. When we gain the powerful power of a god, do we control them, or do they control me? Or after gaining the power of a god, will we become another completely unfamiliar existence?"
"This is a huge gamble. We don't know what the outcome will be. The risk is huge. I don't want you to take the gamble, so I'm taking it."
"You always said that you didn't want to be an ant that could be threatened at will by others. Now that you are back on the surface, no one will threaten you anymore. I am sorry that my love is expressed in such a deformed way, but there is no other way. After all, you chose me."
"You will definitely still hate me after you know everything. I accept your hatred, so just live your life peacefully up there and don't think about the things down there anymore. I'll take care of everything down there."
"If I succeed, our family will be reunited again, my love."
Charles Reid"
Anna held the letter in front of her with trembling hands. She read it carefully over and over again, and finally she gently held the letter and put it in her mouth.
The squid ink doesn't taste good, but Anna chewed it with all her strength, a cannibalistic look in her eyes.
With a gulp, she forcefully swallowed the scraps of paper in her mouth. "You want me to stay quietly on the surface? Dream on! Do you think you can make me give up by taking away all my power? Impossible!"
Anna stood up and asked a police officer next to her quietly, "Excuse me, where is the restroom?"
"Oh, go that way, just go straight and turn left."
Anna thanked him with a smile and walked over there. The black diamond wedding ring on her ring finger shone brightly under the light.
