Zhou Xiaoxiao was also inexplicably shocked. Only then did she understand that the white light that flashed in front of her eyes was this thing and not some light at the end of the tunnel.

Everyone looked back and forth several times, repeatedly confirming that the instigator was this strange thing.

After a long time, Zhang Zhenghuai put down his phone and was the first to break the silence. “I just asked around. The moment we arrested the robbers, a colleague from the Criminal Investigation Division did a trace check at the scene, but we didn’t find any traces of conventional weapons. We also didn’t find anything similar to the shadow that flew out of the surveillance range.”

“Everyone can only brainstorm. Tell me, what kind of weapon is this?”

Deputy Bureau Chief Wang replied, “According to the ratio, it’s probably less than the size of a palm. Although its flying speed is fast, it’s far inferior to a bullet. I can’t tell its trajectory, but it feels a little fleeting. It must be a little light. I really can’t think of what weapon it is!”

Upon hearing this vague weapon, everyone in the office began to brainstorm and discuss.

“Could it be a low-quality gun?”

Zhang Zhenghuai rejected the idea as soon as someone suggested it. “No, Captain Chen already said that the wound caused by the bullet wouldn’t look like this. What bullet would look like this?”

Deputy Bureau Chief Wang continued, “That’s right. As I said just now, we can rule out the possibility of it being a firearm. Regardless of size, speed, trajectory, or the damage caused, we can rule out the possibility of it being a bullet.”

“But other than bullets, what other weapon can have a speed that can’t be captured by the naked eye and cause damage to the tendons in the hand?”

“Could it be a bow and arrow?”

“Yes, or a shorter crossbow bolt!”

Zhang Zhenghuai saw that everyone’s discussion was starting to deviate. He hurriedly pointed at the big screen and reminded, “We can’t rule out this possibility. The crossbow arrow can form a cold weapon graze effect at a certain angle, but if it’s a bow and arrow, the arrow will definitely be left at the scene. However, the comrades of the criminal police team didn’t find anything suspicious at the scene.”

Hearing that everyone was brainstorming, an image suddenly flashed in Zhou Xiaoxiao’s mind.

Zhou Xiaoxiao, who had not participated in the discussion, subconsciously blurted out,

“Um… could it be poker cards?”

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone’s gazes instantly landed on Zhou Xiaoxiao.

Poker cards!

The leaders present were shocked by Zhou Xiaoxiao’s sudden suggestion, but they were not angry.

Instead, they began to associate Zhou Xiaoxiao’s idea with the things in the scene.

The more they thought about it, the more they felt that the poker cards really matched the characteristics of the things in the video.

Because the size was really suitable, and the thickness of the robber’s wound matched.

However, anything was possible except poker cards.

This was because poker cards had many reasons that were definitely not valid.

A few leaders immediately raised their doubts.

“But poker cards are so soft. I’m afraid it’s not enough to cut the bandit’s tendons.”

“That’s right. You have to know that the tendons in a person’s hands and feet are extremely tough… You know that even after eating beef tendon. Even if it’s processed, it will take half a day to chew it before it can break.”

“That’s right. There’s still a possibility that it’s a poker card made of iron, but from the looks of it, it’s impossible for an iron poker card to have such speed and strength.”

“Moreover, there’s no such weapon on the market that can fire poker cards. Furthermore, this doesn’t conform to the principles of weapons science at all. It’s impossible to achieve.”

“It’s normal for young people to like to read martial arts and fantasy novels, but don’t bring them into the case.”

“That’s right, that’s right. In novels, it’s fake to kill someone from afar. You have to be careful when handling cases!”

Zhou Xiaoxiao blushed from being scolded by the leaders and quickly lowered her head.

She thought to herself, “It’s all the fault of the detestable card throwing streamer. I’ve been possessed. The leaders are right. How can I bring this into real life?”

Seeing this, Zhang Zhenghuai hurriedly came out to help Zhou Xiaoxiao. He smiled and said, “Hey, everyone, don’t say that about Little Zhou. I think it’s good for young people to have imagination. We should break our predisposed thoughts when handling cases…”

Halfway through, Zhang Zhenghuai changed the topic. “Of course, Chief Wang’s criticism is right. You still have to distinguish between novels and reality. I think you’re too tired today. Why don’t you go back and rest first?”

Zhou Xiaoxiao looked at Director Zhang gratefully. To be honest, she was indeed a little tired.

After such a huge incident, she felt as if two days had passed in an instant.

Since Bureau Chief Zhang had spoken, Zhou Xiaoxiao planned to take advantage of the situation. She smiled awkwardly and said, “Now that you mention it, it does seem like I’m a little stupid.”

Hearing this, everyone smiled and said, “Then Little Zhou, go back and rest first. In any case, you’ve already written down everything you know.”

“Yes, yes, yes. It was very dangerous today. I have to go back and have a good sleep. I still have a busy day tomorrow.”

Zhou Xiaoxiao looked at the big screen in embarrassment, meaning that the leaders had not gotten off work yet. How could she leave?

As if reading Zhou Xiaoxiao’s concerns, Zhang Zhenghuai waved at her. “Go back and rest quickly. This is an order. What happens next is confidential, and I won’t let you listen in.”

“In that case, I’ll have to trouble the leaders…”

In the end, when she heard that there was confidential information, Zhou Xiaoxiao saluted the leaders and left apologetically.

After Zhou Xiaoxiao left, discussions started again in the office of the Public Security Bureau’s Director.

“Chief Zhang, Deputy Chief Wang, we can come to a conclusion from this video: There must be another person at the scene!”

“Secondly, the weapon in this person’s hand is not simple. If he can cut off the tendons in an instant, doesn’t that mean that if he’s given conditions, he can also cut off the aorta in an instant? He’s a dangerous person!”

“Yes, this is a huge hidden danger hidden among the people. Before we find him, we can’t rule out the possibility that he can hurt people at any time!”

“No matter who this person is, just from the fact that he illegally possesses such an unknown lethal weapon, he’s not an ordinary person! In other words, it’s impossible for ordinary people to carry such an unknown weapon on the streets, right?”

“Is it possible that this person’s target is not the robber, or perhaps he’s the robber’s accomplice? He wanted to shoot Zhou Xiaoxiao, but the two of them accidentally injured the robber in the fight. In the end, he couldn’t find an opportunity and ran away.”

Zhang Zhenghuai rubbed his eyes and looked a little tired. “That’s right, we have to find this person! But the most important thing now is that we only have one clue. Let’s think about what weapon will match all the characteristics first.”

Just like that, everyone had their own opinions. They discussed until late at night, but they still did not come to a conclusion.

It was because the surveillance footage was too blurry and the information provided was too little. Moreover, the thing fired by this unknown weapon were especially abstract. It was really unimaginable.

So much so that everyone even suspected that this was really some black technology, right?

Another hour passed…

Zhang Zhenghuai knocked on the table and raised his spirits. “Forget it. Let’s call it a day. We’re all old and can’t compare to when we were young.”

“Damn! My back is about to break!”

“Alright, alright. Old Wang, remember to inform the various departments to strictly guard the robber. At the same time, pay attention to all suspicious people in Hibiscus City!”

Zhang Zhenghuai said solemnly, “Right now, we can’t differentiate between friend and foe. Moreover, the other party is hiding in the dark, and they might even be the accomplice of the robber. It’s not impossible that he wanted to silence him. Everything is unknown, so we have to be wary!”

“That’s right. This matter still needs to be dealt with seriously. Although there are no clues for the time being, we still have to arrange for it to be passed down. During this period of time, we have to keep our eyes open and do a good job of policing the city. If there are any problems, we have to attack immediately!” As he spoke, Deputy Bureau Chief Wang stood up and twisted his arm. “Alright, that’s all for now. I’ll pass the message to the comrades on duty.”

“Alright, thank you for your hard work. Go back and rest. I’ll just stay in the office for the night.”

Looking at Bureau Chief Zhang who was starting to rummage through the bedding, Deputy Bureau Chief Wang walked to the door and joked,

“That’s right. Fortunately, I’m a deputy chief. If I were the chief, I wouldn’t be able to sleep peacefully. Hahahaha…”

“…”

The next morning.

At the entrance of the Hibiscus City Police Station.

As soon as a cleaning lady arrived at the entrance of the police station, she saw many reporters eating breakfast.

As it was still too early, the police on duty at the guard post stopped them outside the door.

The reporters also noticed the auntie. Seeing that the auntie was about to enter the police station, someone immediately went forward and asked, “Sister, are you a cleaner in the police station?”

The auntie was stunned. “Yes, why?”

“It’s like this. We want to interview Officer Zhou Xiaoxiao. May I know when she’ll come to work?”

“Oh, you guys are talking about Xiaoxiao. She’s usually quite early. It’s almost time. You guys should wait a little longer.”

“Thank you.”

The middle-aged woman had just entered the fence and was about to go to the police station to clean up when she suddenly thought of something. She turned around and reminded, “By the way, please remember to throw the trash into the trash can after eating.”

With that, the auntie walked into the police station.

After working as usual for a long time, the hall was finally tidied up.

Just as she continued to clean up the police workroom, she suddenly realized that a poker card had fallen to the ground while she was sweeping.

She picked it up and saw that it was a worn-out Ace of Hearts covered with footprints. There were traces of dried black color at the corners, and she did not know what kind of paint it was.
