"It turns out there was a reason behind it."
The elder, seeing that Xiaowa hadn't lied, didn't ask further. Instead, he addressed the police officers,
"He's just a child. Whatever questions you need to ask shouldn't involve him. Since I happen to be here, I'll speak on his behalf; let the boy come with me."
The two police officers had already been shocked when they saw the license plate number earlier.
Then they saw the elder initiate a conversation with Xiaowa in front of them.
The mention of "Jing Bingzhao" in the conversation immediately caused cold sweat to break out on their foreheads.
The Jing surname, in the Imperial Capital, is a prominent one, and there are very few people in the whole country with the same name as Jing Bingzhao, let alone in the Imperial Capital.
This elder, casually calling a member of the Jing Family by his full name, clearly held a status even more distinguished than the Jing Family—it was akin to paying respect to a revered Buddha.
