A Core Ship From The Start
Chapter 1211 - Chapter 1211 Chapter 820 Arrest

Chapter 1211: Chapter 820 Arrest Chapter 1211: Chapter 820 Arrest Looking at the recorder in Duanmu Ai’s hand, Fat Dwarf’s expression darkened slightly.

“What exactly are you?”

“Who I am is none of your business. I’m just asking you, are you going to die willingly now, or should I take you to the police station?”

“Humph, with just you?”

Upon hearing Duanmu Ai’s question, Fat Dwarf snorted coldly and then snapped his fingers. Quickly, the doors to the surrounding rooms flew open, and several men dressed in black suits, armed with guns, rushed out and formed a tight circle around Duanmu Ai and Niijima Makoto.

“There is a third option, which is that I kill you both and then toss you into the sea to feed the fish!”

“Ugh…!”

Looking at the dark muzzles of the guns facing her, Niijima Makoto gritted her teeth and instinctively retreated toward Duanmu Ai, while Duanmu Ai merely scanned the surroundings and narrowed her eyes.

“Oh, hoarding guns, caught red-handed, you’re in for it now.”

Back in Night City, after D had issued an order to surrender all guns, almost all human cities had similar regulations. Except for the military, police, and other armed departments, no one was allowed to privately hoard or use firearms. The same was true here. In fact, this city’s gun ban was stricter than in many other communities. Even though Fat Dwarf had been lured into a trap by Duanmu Ai, once the guns were out, he would be in trouble even if he hadn’t done anything wrong.

“Humph, we’ll see how long you can keep laughing. This is my territory; all around there are soundproof facilities. Don’t even think that someone will come to rescue you!”

“That’s just perfect, thank you for being so considerate…”

While she spoke, Duanmu Ai’s left hand turned, and then a mobile phone appeared in her hand.

“Let’s see if you have the ability to do so!”

“Attack, kill them!”

At this moment, Fat Dwarf also issued a command. Immediately after, the men in suits raised their weapons and pulled the triggers, aiming at the two women.

However, at that instant, something miraculous happened.

Accompanied by the sound of gunfire, bullets flew out of the barrels toward the two women, but as they were about to strike, suddenly, an invisible barrier emerged in front of them. The next moment, the bullets bounced back, striking the suited men, and cries of pain filled the air as they were taken down by their own bullets.

At the same time, in front of Duanmu Ai and Niijima Makoto, there appeared a girl with faintly glowing golden hair and blue eyes, wearing a blue dress.

Seeing this, Fat Dwarf’s expression changed slightly.

“Demon Summoners?!”

At this moment, it seemed that Fat Dwarf finally realized that he had provoked the wrong person. He leaped up, trying to escape. However, the next moment, Duanmu Ai kicked the coffee table with force. The heavy coffee table slid across the floor and slammed into Fat Dwarf’s knees, trapping him between it and the wall with a shrill scream as he collapsed onto the table.

“Quick, kill them!!”

Yet even so, Fat Dwarf didn’t give up. His eyes wide with anger, he glared venomously at Duanmu Ai and Niijima Makoto. And this time, from a room next to him, two more figures emerged — older, with scarred faces, they looked vicious and wicked. Each of them also held a Demon Summoning Device in their hands.

It was clear that they too were Demon Summoners.

“Tsk, tsk, tsk. As Demon Summoners, to be bought by such lowlife hooligans, it seems you’re not much better.”

Watching the two colleagues before her, Duanmu Ai shook her head, while the two men didn’t waste any words and immediately raised their Demon Summoning Devices. Then, a white lion and a Demon God with several arms emerged in front of them and lunged directly at their targets without hesitation!

“Humph, utterly meaningless.”

However, watching the two vicious Electronic Demons advancing, Duanmu Ai merely raised an eyebrow.

“Alice, it’s up to you.”

At her command, the golden-haired girl raised her right hand and gently pointed forward.

Just like that.

The next moment, the two approaching Electronic Demons disintegrated, vanished, died completely, and dissipated into the air.

“How is this possible?”

Not only were the two Demon Summoners shocked to their core, but even Fat Dwarf’s face displayed a look of disbelief. After all, he had spent a substantial amount of money for these two Demon Summoners who rarely acted. Yet now, their powerful Electronic Demons were effortlessly killed in just a moment?!

If Fat Dwarf hadn’t figured out the situation yet, then those two Demon Summoners clearly weren’t fools. They exchanged glances and hurriedly turned around to leave, but it was at this moment that Duanmu Ai’s cold voice sounded.

“Stop right there.”

“—————-”

The two Demon Summoners indeed wanted to run, but they truly didn’t dare to. The power the other possessed was too terrifying. They should know that it was their pride, the Electronic Demon, yet it couldn’t last a single round in front of the adversary. If the other party wanted to kill them, it would probably only take the blink of an eye…

They were just after money, and that certainly wasn’t worth losing their lives over.

“Good.”

Looking at the two obediently stopping, Duanmu Ai nodded, then turned to Niijima Makoto.

“Call the police.”

After that, the police arrived at the scene very quickly. Not to mention the men in suits crying and calling for their fathers and mothers, and the firearms scattered all over the ground, those things were enough to draw the police’s full attention. Subsequently, the police searched the entire club and discovered a large amount of illegal drugs, cash, and many blackmail videos. And so, Fat Dwarf was taken away into custody–well, he had both legs broken now, so he couldn’t have run away even if he’d wanted to.

As for those two Demon Summoners, they naturally were also taken away. Even though Demon Summoners have certain privileges, getting caught red-handed in a crime was a different matter entirely. Not to mention their Electronic Demons had been destroyed by Duanmu Ai, which meant their Summoning Devices were definitely going to be confiscated, and their status as Demon Summoners would be revoked. They could only live on as regular humans.

Oh, of course, they would have to sit in jail first.

Duanmu Ai and Niijima Makoto were naturally brought to the police station for an investigation. It was there that Duanmu Ai met Niijima Sae, Niijima Makoto’s sister.

“I never thought you guys would do something like this…”

Niijima Sae wore a sharp suit and presented the image of an efficient professional woman. However, her expression towards Niijima Makoto was rather speechless.

“I didn’t expect that you’d still be involved with this man…”

Niijima Makoto also felt a bit embarrassed–after all, this was being caught behind her sister’s back.

“We’ve been quietly scouting and gathering information about Gold City, just never thought he would fall into our hands this way…”

While saying so, Niijima Sae frowned and looked at Duanmu Ai with dissatisfaction. The latter casually pursed her lips–Duanmu Ai wasn’t familiar with Niijima Sae, and they hadn’t communicated beforehand. As a licensed Demon Summoner, she could do what she wanted as long as she didn’t break the law; it wasn’t their business.

“This has nothing to do with Niijima. It was my idea, and Niijima just came with me out of concern and got involved. Of course, thanks to Niijima, I was able to successfully meet Fat Dwarf. After all, once he heard she had a sister who was a prosecutor, his eyes went straight–without such an attractive bait, it would probably have taken me much more effort to catch this guy.”

“Eh? You did it on purpose?”

Hearing Duanmu Ai’s response, Niijima Makoto looked at her in surprise. She finally realized why Duanmu Ai had kept emphasizing that she had a sister who was a prosecutor…

“Of course, for such guys, if they could drag down a law enforcer’s family member, it would definitely be more convenient. Not to mention your sister is a prosecutor, such a tempting bait wouldn’t be ignored by anyone. After all, they certainly didn’t believe that a mere high school girl could be capable of much.”

“So, you used my sister as bait?”

Niijima Sae stared at Duanmu Ai with an icy gaze.

“Since she was caught, I just thought of the most beneficial approach. If she hadn’t been caught, maybe I would have thought of something else, but since it happened… As a victim, she had to provide the greatest value. Otherwise, it’s hard for a student who has been intimidated to meet with the higher-ups.”

Duanmu Ai shrugged her shoulders, while Niijima Makoto looked bewildered next to her. She truly hadn’t expected to be dragged into the situation. But thinking about it, it was indeed strange beforehand. Duanmu Ai had indeed emphasized having a sister who was a prosecutor to the man, which triggered his interest…

“And I was confident I wouldn’t let her get hurt, which is how it turned out, right?”

“Ah…”

Hearing Duanmu Ai’s reply, Niijima Sae reached up to press her forehead and sighed. Just as she was about to say something, her phone suddenly rang. Niijima Sae took the call, exchanged a few words, and then her expression changed, and she stood up.

“You can go home now. I have some important matters to attend to–Makoto, don’t do anything this dangerous again.”

After finishing that sentence, Niijima Sae quickly turned and left. Duanmu Ai and Niijima Makoto exchanged looks.

“Let’s go.”

After completing the necessary paperwork, the two of them left the interrogation room. As they were about to exit the doors of the police station, a voice suddenly called out.

“Hey, isn’t that Miss Sae’s little sister?”

Hearing this voice, Duanmu Ai and Niijima Makoto stopped in their tracks and turned around, only to see a young man who looked just a bit handsome, approaching them with a smile.

“If you don’t mind, could I have a chat with you?”
