This Witch Transmigrated into the Romantic Novel’s Supporting Role

Chapter 119

Not long after, Chu Yang noticed that the man wearing the black clothes and the others at the table had exchanged something, their actions very discreet, such as smiling while raising their glasses to drink or shaking hands to conceal their deeds.

Chu Yang lowered her eyelids, not letting on, and even used her hand to peel a shrimp and feed it to Chi Yan, who was oblivious, only aware of opening his mouth wide to eat, feeling sweet in his heart.

After they had eaten and drunk their fill, Chi Yan called out, "Proprietor, check please."

Then someone from the neighboring table suddenly looked over, startled by Chu Yang's face for a moment, then stood up and walked over, "Hey, pretty lady, having some barbecue?"

Chi Yan immediately frowned and stood in front of Chu Yang. The man looked at Chi Yan, gave him a once-over, and sneered, "Tch." He hated rich people like Chi Yan who seduced so many beautiful girls.

Just as the man was about to say something to provoke Chi Yan, the man in the black clothes from that table quickly came over and held him back, "Li Si! What do you think you're doing?" The man in black shot Li Si a fierce look. Picking a fight at a time like this? Was he afraid they would be discovered? Idiot!

Originally drunk from the alcohol, Li Si immediately sobered up upon seeing the man in black's look and apologized meekly.

The man in black gestured apologetically to Chi Yan, "Sorry about that, little brother. My friend here is drunk. I'll cover your bill."

Chi Yan took out money and handed it to the proprietor, "No need."

Then he pulled Chu Yang away.

"What drunk, that's just an excuse. I didn't see him streaking!" Chi Yan grew angrier the more he thought about it, but he was also angry at himself for taking Chu Yang there and nearly putting her in danger.

Chu Yang had remained silent the whole time. Chi Yan thought she was mad at him, so he immediately apologized, "I'm sorry, it's all my fault."

Chu Yang: ???

Chi Yan regretfully said, "I shouldn't have taken you there."

Chu Yang waved her hand dismissively, "It's not your fault. It has nothing to do with the location, it's about the people. Scumbags will always be scumbags." Seeing that they had walked far away from there, Chu Yang said, "Let's report them to the police right away. I suspect that group included drug dealers and users."

Chu Yang then told Chi Yan about the suspicious exchanges she had inadvertently witnessed.

"Ah?" Chi Yan was startled, then immediately took out his phone and dialed, "Hello? Police? I'd like to file a report. Yes. Got it."

After making the report call, Chi Yan hurriedly escorted Chu Yang back to the school, thinking that the next time they went for late-night barbecue, he would take her to a safer place. He never expected that group to be drug users? He didn't even want to imagine what could have happened if a fight broke out. Thank goodness, thank goodness.

After Chu Yang and Chi Yan left, the group continued eating and drinking. The man in black even issued a stern warning, "If anyone causes trouble in public, you know the consequences."

Everyone quickly agreed not to cause any trouble.

The man in black's eyelid twitched rapidly. Suddenly, he had a feeling that something bad was going to happen. Seeing that it was getting late, he immediately said, "I'll leave first. You all continue."

The man in black stood up and walked a few steps away, then a group of police officers suddenly rushed over. The man in black immediately tried to flee, but the sharp-eyed police captain gave chase!

A bystander saw this and stuck out their foot, causing the man in black to stumble a bit before being tackled to the ground and arrested shortly after.

The rest of the people at the table had already been apprehended, their heads covered.

The proprietor and some other people had already run outside to watch the commotion.

All the men were taken away, and the barbecue proprietor was also questioned, "What time did they arrive? What were they doing here?"

The proprietor was just as clueless, thinking they were fugitives, "They came around 9 PM and just ordered barbecue and kept eating and drinking. Oh, and they drank alcohol too. In the middle, they almost got into a conflict with someone."

Police: "What happened?"

Proprietor: "There was a young couple from a nearby school who came to eat barbecue. I guess one of the men saw that the girl was pretty and wanted to hit on her, but her boyfriend obviously didn't like that. Then one of the men at their table, a guy in a black outfit, quickly came over and apologized. That's how the situation was defused. The couple paid and left. Then you all showed up soon after."

The police also questioned the proprietors of nearby stalls and some bystanders, getting similar accounts, before leaving.

At the police station, the men were all checked, and it was discovered that out of the seven men at the table, six were drug users, and only the man in the black outfit was not a user. After further investigation and questioning, it turned out that the non-user was a drug dealer.

In other words, this was a distribution line! Excellent, the police were now prepared to investigate his suppliers based on this lead.

"Have you identified the person who reported them?"

"Oh yes, it was the Zhi Xin family. Remember Zhi Xin from the 7th squad back then?"

"Zhi Xin? Oh, the one who owns the security company, right? How is he involved in this?"

"It was his nephew, a college student. His nephew went to eat barbecue with his girlfriend, and the girlfriend almost got harassed. She also accidentally witnessed the drug deal at that table, so they quickly called the police."

"Those guys had no idea why they were discovered. They all thought they were being very careful. Keep it confidential, you know?"

"I know, I know. So the ones who almost got into a conflict with that group were the proprietor mentioned, right?"

"Yes."

"Good people. Send the reward to Zhi Xin and say it's for his nephew. We seized 500g in this raid."

"That much?"

"A great achievement! Request a bigger reward."

"Yes."

...A few days later, after receiving the reward, Zhi Xin: Rice, flour, oil?

Of course, there was also money and a banner of commendation.

Zhi Xin called Chi Yan, "Little Yan, the police station sent your reward to me, saying it's for you. What's going on?"

Chi Yan was stunned for a moment, then suddenly remembered the incident from a few days ago, "Ah, it must be because of Chu Yang. It's from that time when..."

Chi Yan recounted the story of when they went to eat barbecue.

Zhi Xin, recalling Chu Yang's resourcefulness, asked, "Are her looks still decent?"

Chi Yan: ???

Zhi Xin: "You better take good care of her." Lest Chu Yang gets seduced by someone else. He felt his nephew's only attractiveness was his face.

Chi Yan: ???

Zhi Xin: "Alright, I'll have someone deliver the items to you."

"Okay."

Soon after, Chi Yan received the rice, flour, oil... and money.

Seeing the rice, flour, and oil, Chi Yan looked at Chu Yang, "This..."

Chu Yang told him to take it home, "Take it home. I can't cook anyway."

"Alright then."
