Custom HttpStatusCode without Error Message (HttpActionResult)

Question

I am currently working on Asp.net WebAPI2 Project. I am making a custom method for returning custom HttpStatusCode for error handling.

here's my code

    public IHttpActionResult GetError(int errCode) {
        int ErrCode = errCode * -1;
        ResourceManager ResourceManager = new ResourceManager("PIJ.API.OWIN.Properties.Resources", Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly());
        string ErrorMessage = ResourceManager.GetString("_" + ErrCode.ToString());

        return Content((HttpStatusCode)ErrCode, new HttpError(ErrorMessage));
    }

my current output is like this Output Screenshot

my question is. Is is possible to return only the HttpStatusCode, without the error Message ?

Desired Output

Thank you very much.

You can return StatusCodeResult with required HttpStatusCode. This can be done using StatusCode method of ApiController

public IHttpActionResult Test()
{
    return StatusCode(HttpStatusCode.BadRequest);
}
