Chapter 39: Lie Detector "Excuse me, do you love Qin Cangye?"...
"Nono, weren't you the one who called the police?"
Even though he already knew the answer, Qin Cangye still wanted to ask. He wanted a definitive answer; after all, this question could cost him his life.
Su Yinuo was very anxious and cried, "No, what are you thinking? How could I possibly call the police?" She looked up at Qin Cangye and said quickly, "A stranger climbed over the wall this morning to take pictures. I was scared to death. Let's not talk about this for now. Give me the key quickly."
Qin Cangye smiled. He raised his head, holding back the tears in his eyes. The sharp pain in his heart dissipated in an instant. He hugged Su Yinuo and said, "I understand. Don't be afraid. It's okay. Nothing will happen."
As long as it wasn't Su Yinuo who called the police, and as long as his angel hadn't abandoned him, he would have the motivation to live well and deal with everything.
He took out a small silver key from the secret pocket inside his suit and put it in Su Yinuo's hand.
Su Yinuo immediately threw away the fruit knife, squatted down and untied the shackles on his feet.
At the same time, the police who were outside the house using Qin Cangye's mobile phone to check the situation inside the house immediately pushed the door open and recorded everything that happened inside the house with a law enforcement recorder.
Zhang Chong felt a sense of strangeness. The room didn't resemble the kind of confinement he'd seen before. The various decorations, books, lamps, paper, and pens were neatly arranged. The walls were clean, the bed was tidy, and the air was fresh. There was no sign or smell of violence. And besides, the girl looked incredibly nervous, but otherwise normal. She looked healthy, and her thin silk nightgown looked brand new, with barely a crease. The way she huddled in her boyfriend's arms didn't look like she'd been abused or coerced.
However, with the pressure from his immediate superior, Zhang Chong did not dare to make a hasty conclusion, so he said seriously, "Please both of you return to the police station to cooperate with the investigation."
"I can cooperate with the investigation, but the accusation of illegal detention is a complete slander. Please allow me to notify my lawyer first." Qin Cangye calmly took off his coat and covered Su Yinuo's thin nightgown.
"Slander? Then what is this?" The policewoman who had already walked near the two people pointed at the long iron chain on the ground and asked with a stern face.
While Qin Cangye was still organizing his words, Su Yinuo wiped her tears and crawled out of his arms. She shook the key in her hand at the policewoman and said, "Sister, this is a hobby. I locked it myself."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present froze in place, looking extremely embarrassed.
Half an hour later, the two were taken to the Jinyang District Police Station, where Qin Cangye's lawyer, Liu Hong, was already waiting.
After questioning the two separately, Deputy Chief Jiang Tiande of the Jinyang District Police Department maintained his unyielding stance. He concluded that a crime had occurred, citing the informant's photo, the fact that their personal freedom had been restricted for over 24 hours, the use of instruments, and the deprivation of their means of communication, among other detention measures, and sought to detain them.
Liu Hong refuted the allegations on the spot. There were no signs of violence at the scene; the woman had not been abused or mentally coerced; the key to the so-called restraint device was in her hands, so her personal freedom was not restricted; she also claimed to have been completely voluntary; therefore, no crime had been established, and the police had no right to detain her client.
The stalemate dragged on until the afternoon. Liu Hong arrived at the summons room and said to Qin Cangye, who looked a little tired but still calm, "That Deputy Director surnamed Jiang won't give in. This is a bit difficult to handle. Deputy Director Qin, it's clear he's being ordered to deal with you."
Qin Cangye had figured it all out and guessed the culprit could only be Qin Weishu. He wasn't too worried about this, as his connections were just as numerous as his self-righteous grandfather's. He nodded calmly, saying, "It's okay. Wait a moment. How's Nuoruo?"
"Ms. Nuoruo was very calm and didn't say anything against you," Liu Hong said.
A smile appeared on Qin Cangye's calm face.
"However, the police want to conduct a psychological test on Miss Nono and are now seeking her consent."
The smile that had just appeared on his face disappeared, and Qin Cangye looked towards the door worriedly.
"They want to use the mind test to determine whether Miss Nuoruo has been threatened by you and whether it is truly voluntary. This should be their trump card. Although the results of the mind test cannot be used as the basis for conviction, it would be troublesome if Miss Nuoruo reveals something unfavorable to you during the mind test."
Qin Cangye frowned and said solemnly, "Keep an eye on it. Request that the entire process be recorded and recorded. If there are any leading questions, raise objections immediately."
After Liu Hong left, Qin Cangye was the only one left in the quiet room. He clasped his hands together on the table, biting the knuckles of his index fingers. An uncontrollable uneasiness appeared in his deep eyes.
The reason why he was so uneasy was that he knew that in this heart test, "Do you love Qin Cangye?" would definitely be one of the questions.
This question is the basis for whether Su Yinuo is willing. If Su Yinuo does not love him, then all the lies will be ruthlessly exposed in front of the polygraph, the police will investigate deeper, and illegal detention will most likely be determined to be a fact.
But what he cared about was not this. What he cared about was the answer to the question, "Do you love Qin Cangye?"
He thought Su Yinuo didn't love him, he thought Su Yinuo had been pretending, he thought Su Yinuo had been trying to escape, so when he saw the police car this morning, he naturally thought it was Su Yinuo who called the police.
But it is not.
In his heart, Su Yinuo, who should have hated him to the core, actually used her life as a threat and tried her best to protect him.
He didn't understand, so he wanted a definite answer.
In the polygraph room, Su Yinuo put on the cold polygraph equipment. She was very nervous, but with the comfort of the police polygraph technician, her breathing gradually calmed down.
The reason she was willing to undergo the police psychological test was because by the afternoon, Qin Cangye hadn't been released yet, and her inner anxiety had reached its peak. At the time, she had no idea how to help Qin Cangye, and the feeling of powerlessness made her anxious. So when the police proposed the psychological test, she agreed without hesitation.
"Okay, the test begins," the tester's voice came calmly. "Excuse me, is your name Su Yinuo?"
"Yes." Su Yinuo answered nervously.
"Relax, are you of age?"
"Yes." The simple question made Su Yinuo relax a lot.
"Excuse me, are you and Mr. Qin Cangye in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship?"
Su Yinuo was slightly stunned and replied, "Yes."
Her tone was a little weak, and the abnormal fluctuations on the polygraph revealed her hesitation, but the results did not reach the level of lying. It was obvious that she was not sure about the answer to this question.
The psychologist calmly noted the result and continued calmly asking, "How did Qin Cangye get you into the villa? By tricking you? By getting you drunk? By drugging you? By kidnapping you? Or by inviting you?"
"Neither." Su Yinuo answered decisively.
The psychologist glanced at the screen and didn't lie.
"Excuse me, did you come to the villa voluntarily?"
"yes."
"Excuse me, did you and Qin Cangye have sex in the villa?"
"have."
"Excuse me, is sexual activity compulsory?"
"no."
"Excuse me, does sexual activity involve any monetary exchange?"
"No."
"May I ask if Qin Cangye has ever used violence against you?"
"No."
"May I ask if Qin Cangye has ever deprived you of the right to eat or use the toilet?"
"No."
"Excuse me, did you ever think of asking for help while you were in the villa?"
"No."
"Excuse me, was your mental state in the villa one of fear?"
"no."
"Are you nervous?"
"no."
"Are you happy?"
"Yes."
"Is it relaxing?"
"Yes."
......
After a series of questions, Su Yinuo became calmer and calmer.
Although the tester's expression and tone remained unchanged, she had already made up her mind: there was no need to ask any more questions. There was no coercion or abuse, and the girl was indeed willing. However, she had to follow the procedure and finish the questions in hand.
At that moment, outside the Jinyang District Police Station, a police car from the Municipal Bureau hurried into the yard. The car door opened, and a middle-aged man in a Mao suit with a stern expression strode out and walked directly into the police station lobby.
Gao Wangfei, the director of the Jinyang District Police Department, who was about to leave work, saw the newcomer and his expression immediately changed. He shouted, "Deputy Director Li, why are you here? Why didn't you tell me in advance?"
"What's wrong? Did it delay you from getting off work?" Li Zhengyi, deputy director of the Municipal Bureau, said unhappily.
"No, no, no, how can that be? I haven't gotten off work yet. Do you have any instructions?" Gao Wangfei said quickly.
"How can you be the director if you arrest people due to insufficient evidence? You don't even answer my calls, and I have to go there in person. I think your Jinyang District is planning to set up its own organization?" Li Zhengyi started to curse.
Gao Wangfei was sweating profusely. Only after receiving a lecture did he realize that Jiang Tiande had been keeping Qin Cangye in the police station without telling him. He knew Qin Cangye was a prominent business tycoon in Beiguang City, after all. But he had no idea that Qin Cangye was so close to the incorruptible Deputy Director of the Municipal Bureau, Li Zhengyi, that he had even been able to get Li Zhengyi to personally intervene and retrieve him.
He apologized repeatedly and took Li Zhengyi to meet Qin Cangye. He apologized profusely and asked the man to come out of the summons room.
Although Qin Cangye was concerned about Su Yinuo, he still didn't forget to thank Li Zhengyi. Li Zhengyi's clean hands were only on the surface. Although his actions were completely impervious to any investigation, the desires that Qin Cangye had exploited for profit had already made him one of Qin Cangye's backers in Beiguang City.
Li Zhengyi just exchanged a few polite words with Qin Cangye before leaving in a hurry. This unfamiliar relationship left Gao Wangfei confused.
"Director Gao, my girlfriend should still be in the cardiac testing room. Can I go and see her?" Qin Cangye asked politely.
Although Gao Wangfei didn't understand the relationship between Qin Cangye and Li Zhengyi, he didn't dare to neglect it anymore. He smiled and nodded, and led Qin Cangye to the cardiac testing room.
The psychological test has not yet ended. Liu Hong and several police officers are still watching the psychological test in the observation room nearby.
"Is it over? If it's over, let them go quickly. It's just a matter between a young couple that was consensual, but they've been making such a fuss for so long. Is that unreasonable?" Gao Wangfei said to several policemen irritably.
Captain Zhang Chong scratched his head helplessly and said, "It seems that the result is indeed consensual. We will release him after the process is completed."
Qin Cangye ignored them and walked towards the one-way glass window. He saw Su Yinuo, who looked a little tired, in the cardiac testing room.
She had left in a hurry that morning, leaving her hair uncombed and draped over her shoulders. Though a little messy, it also made her look incredibly lazy and gentle. She was still wearing his coat, and his plush home clothes underneath. Her trouser legs were a bit too long; even though they had been rolled up before she left, they had now fallen down, completely covering her feet. She sat there quietly, only occasionally opening her mouth to answer questions, and Qin Cangye was mesmerized by her.
"Excuse me, is it winter now?" The psychologist asked an irrelevant question.
Su Yinuo was slightly surprised and answered "yes".
Qin Cangye could see that all the curves on the computer interface were fluctuating steadily without any abnormalities.
"Excuse me, do you think that Qin Cangye's feelings for you are love?"
Su Yinuo's brows relaxed, a barely perceptible smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he replied, "Yes."
The curve jumped slightly, not because of lying, but because of the throbbing that slowly emerged in Su Yinuo's heart.
"Excuse me, do you love Qin Cangye?"
Time seemed to stand still.
The corners of Su Yinuo's eyes curved up, and a light flashed in his eyes.
On the other side of the one-way glass, Qin Cangye held his breath and pressed his fingers tightly against the glass.
Su Yinuo suddenly smiled, and that smile was like the sun shining through the haze: "Love."
