They heard another loud bang.
All of them flinched. Their gazes swept between the deputy leader and Sylvia, realizing the deputy leader had also been injured.
Again, they were amazed by Sylvia's speed, wondering if she was a top martial artist.
The deputy leader was more skilled in fighting than the leader, the most skillful one in their gang.
However, he almost died because of a kick.
His body slid down the wall and fell to the ground.
Unable to stand up, he spat a mouthful of blood.
Sylvia darted at him and asked, "Any bold ones want to fight me? Go ahead."
The rest men shivered in fear, unable to utter a beep.
It was midnight.
The police station of Larro received a call. A robbery in a wealthy neighborhood was reported.
Shortly after, the police car was pulled over at the entrance of Pearlhall Villa.
Several policemen rushed into the house while holding weapons.
Then they saw dozens of men in black squatting in the living room, shivering in fear.
The scene was different from what they'd imagined.
Sylvia looked at the deputy leader, who still spat blood continuously, and checked on the leader's dead body. "They disagreed on sharing the stolen wealth, so they fought against each other. One was killed," she told the chief of the criminal investigation team.
"Are you all right, Miss Andrews?" the chief of the criminal investigation asked, staring at the queen-like woman.
"Of course I am." An evil smile played on her lips. "They are not OK."
Right then, the forensic experts and several policemen started to investigate the scene and identify the dead.
After learning he was a gang leader they had wished to arrest for a long time, they were shocked and yelled, "Captain! He's Nash."
"What?" The leader of the criminal investigation team walked up and recognized the leader. Then he glanced at the dying deputy leader and grinned, "Thank you so much, Miss Andrews. You helped us arrest those scums."
The gang had done countless evil things, including intentional murders, arson, larceny, and robbery. The police wanted to arrest them for a long time but lacked evidence.
The deputy leader murdered many people. Now, he would stay in jail for the rest of his life.
"No! I didn't..." he was about to defend himself and told the police he hadn't killed the leader.
However, he felt a sharp pang in his chest. It hurt so much that he couldn't utter a complete sentence.
At three o'clock in the morning, The official account of the Larro police station posted a tweet on Twitter.
"At midnight, the police resolved a burglary case and caught the criminals. When the criminals shared the stolen goods, they had an internal fight, causing one death and one injury. We'd like to thank Miss Sylvia Andrews especially. She helped us capture 37 suspects. We reward her for her heroic action with the medal and certificate of honor."
The following morning, a mighty roar was raised in Larro.
All netizens couldn't help discussing the latest news.
"Holy shit! What happened? It's only been a night. What did I miss?"
"Miss Sylvia Andrews helped the police resolve a criminal case. Again?"
"She helped them rescue the children from the traffickers last time. This time, she helped them capture the burglar. I wonder what she isn't competent in."
"She should work as a policewoman."
"She's a stunner with good fighting skills. I worship her!"
"She's an excellent citizen indeed."
"How incredible!"
Sylvia didn't know anything about the netizens' discussions. She had been too busy to check Twitter. Besides, Sylvia had only slept for a few hours the previous night. In the morning, she went to the studio center of the city hall while still feeling sleepy.
It was the first formal rehearsal. Several government leaders' assistants and secretaries would watch it.
The leaders were waiting to be updated in their offices.
Therefore, Sylvia had to get up no matter how sleepy she was.
She was highly responsible at work. Although she felt upset for lacking sleep, for the sake of Mayor Cody and his wife, she wanted to do the job well.
However, much to her surprise, those actors and actresses stared at her with unconcealed mania and respect.
Sylvia asked, rubbing her sleepy eyes, "What's going on? Are you guys OK?"
