The Genius System Without Equal - Chapter 261:
Chapter 261: Beibei
Not long after, the police arrived. The square-jawed man and four others were handcuffed. Their expressions were desperate. Had they known earlier that Xiao Luo and Zhang Dashan were not people they could mess with, they would have held their tempers in. However, there were no what-ifs in the world. Everything was too late. Karma had caught up with them.
“We don’t have time to give a statement, and we have told you everything necessary.” Zhang Dashan declined the police’s invitation. He pointed at the young girl beside Xiao Luo and said, “Oh yeah, this little girl is the one they kidnapped. Please help her find her family.”
“Alright!”
There was basically no cop in Jiangcheng that didn’t know who Xiao Luo was. His name was like a religion, instilling wariness, fear, and respect in them. How could they dare force Xiao Luo and his companion to give their statements at the police station?
A policewoman walked up to Xiao Luo. After nodding at Xiao Luo as an acknowledgment, she bent down and waved at the girl. She gave the girl a friendly smile and said, “Little girl, I’ll take you to your parents, alright?”
The little girl wrapped her arms around Xiao Luo’s thighs and shook her head forcefully. She hid behind Xiao Luo and warily looked at the policewoman.
Xiao Luo smiled resignedly and looked down to persuade her. “They are the police, and the police are the good guys. They will help you find your parents. You can go ahead and follow her.”
“You are Beibei’s father.”
The young girl lifted her head as she seriously spoke. Her big, shining, onyx-like eyes blinked.
Hmm?
The look in the eyes of the policewoman and the other cops immediately became contemplative. Xiao Luo the devil cop has a daughter? How could they not know?
Xiao Luo quickly explained, “I am not your father.”
“You are Beibei’s father.”
The little girl spoke in a very sure tone. Her childish voice was very pleasant to the ears.
“Little girl, you have recognized him wrong. Maybe he just looks like your father, but he definitely isn’t your father. He doesn’t even have a wife yet.” Zhang Dashan spoke up and agreed with Xiao Luo. What is happening? He’s even getting pestered by a little girl?
The little girl looked at him sheepishly but didn’t reply to him. Her tiny hands were still holding on tightly to Xiao Luo’s thighs. She pressed her porcelain-doll-like face closely to Xiao Luo’s thigh. Her face looked flat as the muscles were being compressed. She pouted and looked very cute.
If it wasn’t for the fact that the man before her was Xiao Luo the devil cop, even the policewoman would have failed to suppress her liking of the girl and go forward to pat the girl on the head. She was too cute. She made one feel an impulse to hug her and show her some love.
Xiao Luo didn’t argue with the little girl any further, but he said to the policewoman, “Take her.”
Regardless of whether the cops were able to coax her away or take her forcefully, they had to take the little girl with them. It had nothing to do with him.
At Xiao Luo’s behest, the policewoman walked up and tried to coax or trick the girl. “Little girl, do you want to have some cotton candy? How about I bring you to buy some fluffy and sweet cotton candy?”
The little girl was slightly tempted, but she thought of Xiao Luo, so she shook her head.
The policewoman took out her phone. “Then, do you want to watch clips of Logger Vick, Briar, and Bramble? I have some here.”
As she spoke, she directly clicked on the video clips of Boonie Bears and played it for the little girl.
The little girl was tempted. Most kids were unable to resist cartoons. She walked out from behind Xiao Luo and took the phone from the policewoman. She stood where she was looking down and started watching the show with pleasure.
“Is it nice?” The policewoman tried to get the girl to trust her more.
The little girl nodded. Not shifting her eyes off the phone, she replied, “It’s nice!”
“How about you come with me? I still have a lot of nice cartoons at my place.” The policewoman smiled.
Unexpectedly, the little girl immediately exited the state of being completely focused on the cartoon. After warily glancing at the policewoman, she once again hugged Xiao Luo’s thighs tightly. “Beibei doesn’t want to leave Dad!”
Eh?!
The policewoman was momentarily shocked. Obviously, her tactics of coaxing and tricking had failed.
There was no other way but to take her by force. She grabbed the little girl’s hand. “Little girl, he isn’t your father. I will help you find your actual parents.”
The little girl began wailing. “I won’t go! My dad is here! He is my dad, boohoo…”
The policewoman, who was afraid of hurting her, didn’t dare tug at her forcefully now that she was crying, so she let go of her hand.
The little girl immediately hugged Xiao Luo’s thighs firmly and tightly, hiding behind him.
“Damn, what’s going on? Old Xiao, be honest to me, surely this girl can’t really be the daughter of you and some woman?”
It was the first time Zhang Dashan had encountered something like this throughout his life. Saving a little girl by chance and having the little girl claim Old Xiao as her dad was surely only something that happened in novels, right?
Xiao Luo rolled his eyes at him and reprimanded, “Don’t say anything if you don’t have anything to say.”
The little girl was at least three years old. He would have just graduated from university when she was born. He was in a relationship with Zhao Mengqi, so why would he have sex with other women and have a daughter?
When he saw the little girl crying, Xiao Luo didn’t know why, but he felt indescribably sorry for her. Even though it wasn’t a very strong feeling, it was clear as day.
He squatted down and extended a hand to wipe away the tears on her face. He patted her on the head. “Don’t cry, you will look like a tabby cat if you keep on crying.”
“Beibei has finally found Dad! Beibei doesn’t want to leave you!” The little girl’s eyes were red. Drops of tears were pooled on her eyelashes. She looked so pitiful that even God would have been moved.
Xiao Luo drily laughed. “You are Beibei?”
“Yup.”
The little girl nodded quickly like a chick pecking at rice.
“Why are you calling me Dad?”
Xiao Luo was very curious about it. “Is it that I look like your dad?”
The little girl shook her head. “You are Beibei’s dad.”
Xiao Luo was speechless. He realized that he couldn’t communicate with the girl. How could he be her dad? There was no chance of it being true at all.
The policewoman sheepishly suggested, “Xiao… Xiao Luo, since she relies on you so much, let her follow you for now. I will bring her family over to find you when they report her missing. Is that alright?”
She was actually thinking that the girl would be a huge trouble if she kept on wailing loudly and making noise after they took her away.
“It is your duty as cops to help her find her family,” Xiao Luo calmly said. “What does it have to do with me?”
“About that…”
The policewoman laughed awkwardly but did not say anything more. She feared Xiao Luo, this devil cop, from the bottom of her heart.
Suddenly, the little girl, whose tears had stopped, began crying again. Tears streamed from her eyes. As she pouted she wailed, “Dad, Beibei has finally found you, why don’t you want Beibei? Boohoo…”
Seeing her cry, Xiao Luo couldn’t describe what he felt. He even subconsciously frowned.
