She Lowered her head and searched the car again, but still got nothing. She Looked a Little confused and muttered, “Strange. I’m sure I saw two girls in the car just now…” Harlan sneered in an instant. “What girls? Are you blind? How the hell did you become a policewoman?”
“Are you doubting my capabilities?”
Harlan’s insulting words made Zoe very unhappy. She immediately turned around and strode up to Harlan. With her hands planted firmly on her hips, she retorted, “You’re just an idiot-all muscles, no brain. What do you know?”
Zoe then wielded the baton and pointed it at Harlan. “Don’t you know that insulting an officer is enough reason to be detained?”
Harlan didn’t even flinch. “I’m a law-abiding citizen. Why should I be scared of you and your baton?”
Then he narrowed his eyes at Zoe and smirked provocatively. “You called me an idiot? Well, it was this idiot who defeated you.”
Zoe gritted her teeth and shouted, “Just wait and see! You snuck up on me that day and caught me off-guard.”
With a red, livid face, Zoe argued fiercely with Harlan. It was as though she had completely forgotten her original purpose.
But at this moment, there was a sudden noise from the trunk.
“What was that?”
Zoe immediately stopped quarreling with Harlan. She pricked up her ears and stared at the trunk.
“Is there something inside?”
She clenched the baton in her hand and slowly walked over, suspicion written all over her face.
Harlan and I became extremely nervous in an instant.
“Harlan! What should we do now?” I asked in a low, panicked voice.
The second Zoe opened the trunk, we’d be doomed.𝘙𝘦𝘢𝘥𝘨𝘰𝘰𝘥𝘧𝘪𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯.𝘤𝘰𝘮
Harlan hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and hissed fiercely, “How about we just kill her?”
As he spoke, he quickly took a few steps back, preparing to turn into his beast form.
“Stop! That’s a terrible ide: I hurriedly stepped in front of Harlan. “If Zoe dies, the police will definitely look into her murder. It’ll only make things worse!”
“But we don’t have a choice, do we?” Harlan growled.
Just then, a tinny voice suddenly came from Zoe’s walkie talkie. “Attention, attention! Caleb Wright is speeding down No. 108 Road. Officers nearby, please respond and stop him immediately.”
“Damn it! Why is that Caleb racing again? This guy is so annoying!” Zoe stopped right before she reached the trunk. She turned around to glare at me and Harlan, threatening, “You two better behave!”
