An Xiaoning expressed assent. No. 8 scurried toward her and exclaimed, "Sis, those motorboat drivers are here."

She looked over to see that it was indeed so.

They were striding toward them aggressively with the drivers taking the lead.

They glowered at her as if they were dying to devour her.

"Wretched lass, I've finally found you!" Holding an iron rod in his hand, the man hollered at the bystanders, "What are all of you looking at? Scram!"

The bunch of cowardly onlookers hurriedly got back onto the cruise ship and left.

The teenager's mother began to waver and lose her composure, feeling a sudden urge to leave too.

"Hey, lunkhead, what are you trying to do?" An Xiaoning taunted, raising her chin and staring at the leader.

"Who are you calling lunkhead?"

"You." After a moment of hesitation, An Xiaoning said, "How about this? We'll go into detail about this once the police is here. If you're thinking of laying a finger on us, I'll have no choice but to press charges and sue you for intentional assault."

"Which idiot was the one who started getting physical first? Don't think I wouldn't dare to hit you just because you're a woman!" the man snapped, seething with exasperation.

An Xiaoning smiled and sneered dauntlessly, "I didn't say that you're afraid of hitting women. I'm just saying, what's going to be left of your dignity if I make you collapse and sprawl onto the ground in front of all these people? Oh right, you don't have dignity anyway. It shouldn't matter then. If you'd like to get physical, I don't mind entertaining you."

Completely infuriated, the man swung the iron rod against them while the nimble and agile An Xiaoning swiftly dodged. The man continued to make several attempts, all of which she managed to avoid in time.

After various failed attempts, the man was exhausted. His underlings surged forward but soon retreated upon thee sight of the gun in An Xiaoning's hand.

"I'll shoot whoever dares to step forward. Would you like to try and see if the bullets in here are real?"

"Are you a cop?"

"No."

"How did you get a gun, then?"

After scanning her surroundings, An Xiaoning answered, "Why must I tell you?"

No one dared to take another step forward, seeing how composed and confident she was.

An Xiaoning put her gun away the moment she saw some uniformed police officers approaching from afar.

As the four police officers arrived, the bunch of men's initial arrogance vanished.

One of the officers asked, "What's going on?"

No. 5 recounted the incident, after which one of the men said, "This woman here stabbed our people and even attacked us physically."

"How about you compensate them with some money and let the matter slide?" suggested the police officer, who was obviously just trying to mediate the conflict instead of taking legal action against the men.

"Compensate? How much?"

"Two hundred thousand dollars, not a single cent less!"

An Xiaoning scoffed and retorted, "Two hundred thousand? How greedy of you. I won't be giving you a single cent."

Noticing how arrogant she sounded, the police officer had no choice but to pull her aside and said, "These people are tough nuts to crack and they have a powerful backer. How about I help you mediate and negotiate with them? Just drop the matter, alright?"

"Which police post do you belong to?" An Xiaoning asked with a smile.

"There's only one police post here, where do you think I belong to? What's your name? How old are you this year?"

"What has my name and age have to do with this matter?"

"Alright, tell me how much you can compensate them with, then. Since you've injured them, you definitely won't be able to leave without paying any compensation fees."

"If I can't leave, I'll just stay here."

"Why are you so thick in the head? There are so many of them. What if they kill you here? Is it really worth it?"

"What's the point of having police officers like you in the country? Are you going to watch me get killed?"

The police officer was flabbergasted. He decided to give up on trying to persuade her and said, "I'm telling you straight, there's nothing we can do about this. If you can't come to an amicable agreement, just do whatever you want."

"Hold up, the police officers from the police station in the city will be here anytime soon. There'll be someone who intervenes with this even if you don't."

"How childish and ignorant."

"Why don't you go ask them how much they're willing to accept as a compensation?" said An Xiaoning.

Upon hearing her words, the police officers immediately rushed toward the bunch of men and returned soon after. One of them said to her, "They said that they would need at least 150 thousand dollars, not a single cent less."

"How much should they compensate for attempting to murder that girl, then? Don't tell me, gods may do what cattle may not?" she asked with raised brows.

"What do you mean attempted murder? No such thing. Who would dare to do that in broad daylight?"

"Look at yourself, lying through your teeth. You really deserve an Oscar Award. Even if you don't have the means to punish them with the law, don't get yourself involved. Are you even worthy of your uniform?" An Xiaoning gibed.

"You silly woman, why are you so dense?"

"We still don't know who's the dense one here."

"I don't care anymore. Don't regret it when they drag you away!"

"I'm afraid you and your colleagues are going to be the ones to regret it."

Seeing how stubborn she was, the police officers turned around to leave without another word.

Tension filled the air. An Xiaoning was filled with curiosity about just who their backer was.

No. 5 walked toward her and said, "Seems like they're in cahoots."

"Isn't that obvious?" An Xiaoning stroked her fingernails and continued, "There are bound to be black sheep in every industry. There's no absolute black and white."

"Sis, how do you plan to resolve this? Are you thinking of throwing them all into prison?" No. 5 asked.

"Not entirely. I just hope that I'll be able to warn the rest by punishing a small group of them. When we get back, I'll inform the media about this and get them to spread this matter all over the news. We must let all the potential evildoers at all tourist attractions in the country know what consequences they'll face for intentionally harming others."

….

Half an hour later, Ma Jianguo arrived with his subordinates. An Xiaoning squinted to see that they were all from the special forces and tactical units.

Police officers from the tactical units would have to be granted permission from the higher-ups before they're allowed to participate in operations. In other words, Pan Zhenghui had already found out about it too.

The bunch of men were puzzled to see the dozens of police officers. The constable immediately asked, "Why are there so many officers from the special forces and tactical units?"

Ma Jianguo shot him a glance and quipped, "They're obviously here to get this matter settled. Otherwise, do you think they're here to observe and take a tour?"

Smiling wryly, the constable said, "I've already tried to mediate the situation, but it's rather tense because this woman won't comply."

Ma Jianguo looked at An Xiaoning and asked, "Do you have the evidence?"

"Yes, arrest all of them." As soon as An Xiaoning gave her command, Ma Jianguo gestured for his subordinates to take action, after which the bunch of officers stepped forward and pinned the men down onto the ground.

"There are two more who are injured. They're either in that house or the washroom nearby. Bring all of them here too."

Ma Jianguo nodded and instructed two of the special forces officers to begin searching.

The constable was dumbfounded. What's going on? Why is officer Ma obeying this woman? Who is this woman?

"What did you tell Bureau Chief?" An Xiaoning asked.

Ma Jianguo chuckled and answered, "I just told him that you wanted some assistance. The Chief was afraid that you would get injured so he summoned more manpower. It's been hard on you."
