God-Tier Like System
While giving Christopher a disdainful look, Shawn sneered, “Stop saying nonsense. Of course I’m taking you in. Give me your hands!” This time, Christopher did not get angered at all. Instead, he said with an amused look, “I’ll give you my hands, but it won’t be so easy when you want to remove the handcuffs later.” “Ha! Who do you think you are? You think I’ll remove the handcuffs for you? Dream on!” Shawn scoffed at Christopher before putting on the handcuffs. At this moment, Raymond and Gale, who were standing by the side, sneered as they witnessed Shawn putting the handcuffs on Christopher. He’d have to pay for his daring actions now! Right before Shawn was about to make Christopher enter the police car, the latter suddenly stopped for a moment before saying, “Oh right, I have to tell my father something and make a call to someone important.” After secretly giving a ‘no problem’ gesture to Raymond and Gale, Shawn snorted again. “Stop dilly-dallying. Hurry up.” Upon hearing that, Christopher took a look at his parents who seemed concerned before walking toward them. “Dad, Mom, don’t worry. It’s fine. Just help me to take my phone out of my pocket and call Jefferey.” At once, Mr. Yard gave Christopher a confused look before fishing his phone out from his pocket. Then, he browsed through the phone contacts and showed Jefferey’s contact to Christopher for confirmation prior to making the phone call. Meanwhile, Jefferey, who was working in a relaxed manner, suddenly heard his phone ring. Thinking that it must be his subordinates calling, he took a glance at the phone. The moment he saw that it was Christopher’s call, he immediately jumped right up from his chair and picked up the phone in a swift movement. Christopher wouldn’t contact him for no reason. The last time Christopher did so, it was because one of Jefferey’s subordinates had locked his car by accident, so he came to Jefferey for help. There must be a reason Christopher was looking for him on this day as well. Please don’t let it be anything serious. With that thought, Jefferey picked up the phone call and greeted him courteously. “Mr. Christopher, to what do I owe the pleasure?” “One of the policemen in Harmony Village has handcuffed me! Do you have some time to help me resolve this?” Christopher conveyed his situation rather nonchalantly. What the f*ck?! That was Jefferey’s first reaction upon hearing what Christopher said. These idiots from Harmony Village are always giving me problems! How dare they mess with Christopher Yard?! At once, Jefferey’s hand that was holding the phone trembled so much that he almost lost his grip on it. Then, he frantically held the phone with both his hands and took a glance to make sure that he did not end the call by mistake before heaving a sigh in relief. “Yes, of course I have the time! Mr. Christopher, don’t worry. I’m going to call the director of the police branch in Harmony Village immediately!” After saying that, he even gave his chest two pats to reassure that he was going to settle the issue for Christopher. “Thank you very much.” Christopher nodded as he spoke. Upon hearing that, Jefferey wiped off the beads of sweat on his forehead before answering, “Don’t sweat it. It’s what I should do!” After that, Christopher didn’t say anything else and ended the call. He then continued to console his parents as well as Samantha by telling them not to worry. Seeing that Christopher had so much to say, Shawn, who was initially standing by the side, had gotten impatient. That was when he pulled Christopher’s right arm harshly before he snapped, “Stop yapping already! Time to come with me!” Right after he said that, he immediately gestured for one of his colleagues to open the door of the patrol car before pushing Christopher into it. Just as Shawn himself was about to board the patrol car, his phone suddenly rang. “D*mn it! Who’s calling me at this time?”Shawn said, sounding rather annoyed. However, his attitude took a swift change the moment he saw who the person calling him was. Though anxious, he put on a wide smile immediately. “Hello, Chief! Do you have any orders for me? You’ve mentioned about capturing Christopher Yard the other day, and I’ve just taken him into custody. I promise you nothing will go wrong…” While grabbing onto the cell phone with both hands, he nodded and bowed habitually as he spoke to Jefferey on the phone. Nonetheless, an angry yell came through from the other end of the call before he could finish his sentence. “You’d better f*cking let him go at once! Now! If you take another second longer, you can kiss your job at the police branch goodbye! Also, you’d better apologize to Christopher immediately! D*mn it! Send me your location! I’m rushing over now!”Jefferey had literally just yelled that at him and hung up the phone right after. Stumped and confused, Shawn lowered his hand that was holding the phone with his mouth hanging open. Let him go? Could it be that Christopher has contacts with some powerful figures—someone who is even more powerful than the police chief of Harmony Village? As those thoughts crossed his mind, he immediately turned pale. If that was the case, he was definitely doomed. Obviously, he couldn’t afford to offend any powerful figure like him! At once, he opened the door of the patrol car before he went to stand in front of the door where Christopher was seated at and said courteously, “Well, Mr. Christopher, I have mistaken you for someone else. You’re not the person I have to take in, so please come out and I’ll remove those cuffs for you.” Christopher, who was still sitting in the car, took a glance at Shawn disdainfully before saying coldly, “Didn’t you say that I’m very arrogant, and that it’s wishful thinking on my part that you’ll remove the handcuffs for me?” Upon hearing that, Shawn was really starting to panic. Fear crept up his face as he was overwhelmed by anxiety. Then, he pleaded in a low voice, “M-Mr. Christopher, sir, please, I’m begging you. Please come out and let me remove those cuffs for you!” His boss was about to arrive, and if he saw that Christopher was still handcuffed, Shawn could imagine that he would be done for. Hence, he urgently begged Christopher. “Open the door. The air in the car isn’t very fresh,” Christopher said after sweeping his gaze past the door and setting his sight on Shawn. Upon hearing that, Shawn smiled from eye to eye before opening the door for Christopher with his body almost at a 90-degree angle. “Sir, please be careful so you won’t hit your leg!” When Shawn was happily fishing out his keys for the cuffs to remove it from Christopher’s hands, Christopher frowned before saying, “When did I say that I’m letting you remove the handcuffs?” At once, Shawn froze like a statue. He was getting so desperate that he would even get on his knees now. Sir, please don’t play with me now! It’s going to cost me my life! “Sir Christopher, you must be a benevolent person. Please give me a chance to make it up to you,” Shawn pleaded with utmost sincerity. While giving him a disdainful look, Christopher seemed totally unfazed. However, he did look toward where Samantha and his parents were at before giving them a reassuring smile. He wanted to let them be reassured that he was fine; that was his priority at the moment. As for the others who had just witnessed such a drastic change in Shawn’s attitude, they were simply stumped.
