Chapter 701 Memories of the Dead



No one can escape the fate of death. Viruses, physical experiments—every horrific experiment requires human lives to pay the price.

In the end, the man couldn't escape his fate either, and before he died, he clutched the toy he had made for the little girl, frozen in shock...

The scene ends there, a testament to a man's lingering obsession that persisted for over seventy years after his death.

Everyone was stunned by the scene before them. Liu Xuesong took off his military cap and, along with six soldiers, saluted the scene.

Ye Xingchen sighed and slowly stepped forward, saying, "Your revenge has been taken. All the Japanese here are dead."

"Moreover, we have won. Our descendants will no longer have to suffer humiliation. Let go of your obsession and go in peace."

Countless points of light slowly rotated, eventually forming a human figure. This figure nodded slowly at Ye Xingchen and then disappeared into the air.

At the same time, a bright light appeared in the sky above the mass grave site.

Countless points of light surged into the radiance, representing the longing of countless souls buried in the mass grave.

Now that they have let go of their obsessions and entered the cycle of reincarnation, may the world be safe and sound, and may the country be prosperous and the people at peace.

The next day, Liu Xuesong found Ye Xingchen: "The base has been cleared out, and a lot of evidence of crimes has been made public."

"Let's erect a monument near the mass grave," Ye Xingchen said. "It would be a way to do something for the countless souls who died there."

"This is exactly what I was thinking. The leadership has already given their approval, and the monument will be completed in half a month," Liu Xuesong said.

"That's good." Ye Xingchen nodded. "How's the interrogation of Jin Xiang going?"

"It's not going too smoothly; this guy's so stubborn," Liu Xuesong said helplessly. "Li Wei's mouth is practically burning from all the anxiety."

"Heh, that's because their interrogation methods were wrong." Ye Xingchen sneered, "If you're going to be polite and give face to this kind of trash, then you're in the wrong."

"I've said that too, but their case-handling procedures are too rigid, and I can't persuade them," Liu Xuesong said helplessly.

"I'll go take a look." Ye Xingchen stood up.

Inside the base's prison, Li Wei's throat was parched. He took a sip of water and said somewhat exasperatedly, "Jin Xiang, don't harbor any illusions here."

"We have gathered a great deal of evidence against you. Even if you don't confess, we can still convict you."

Jin Xiang was handcuffed and shackled, but he sat there with his usual nonchalant attitude.

He scoffed at Li Wei's interrogation.

"Then let's decide. What's the point of reviewing it? I hope none of you will regret it." Jin Xiang's gaze swept over everyone present, his eyes cold and chilling.

“I’m warning you, Jin Xiang, if you dare to do this again, I will consider it a threat to police officers.” Bai Zilin frowned.

"Heh, if I may ask, how much do you narcotics officers make, risking your lives every day?" Jin Xiang sneered.

"Even if you die, you won't even have a tombstone. Your families and children will live in constant fear. Tell me, is this really the life you want?"

"Don't bring up topics unrelated to our questions, Jin Xiang. I'm warning you, you'd better cooperate." Li Wei banged on the table. "It'll be good for you to honestly tell us what we're asking."

"What good would it do me? Haha, you all know who I am, right? I've warned you more than once that if anything really happens to me, none of you here will escape unscathed." Jin Xiang laughed heartily.

"Looks like you're going to resist to the end?" Bai Zilin was furious. She stood up, grabbed a police baton, and was about to strike.

Honestly, her patience had reached its limit these past two days, and this guy in front of her was completely unyielding. She decided that even if it meant breaking the rules, she had to teach this kid a lesson.

Li Wei quickly stopped her, saying, "Zilin, don't be impulsive. Don't break the rules. This guy is just trying to provoke you."

After stopping Bai Zilin, Li Wei turned to Jin Xiang and said, "Jin Xiang, I'll give you one more chance. If you don't tell, the consequences will be severe."

"Please, you've said this over and over again these past few days, saying the consequences will be severe, but I still don't know what those consequences are," Jin Xiang laughed heartily.

"But do you know the consequences of offending me? Let me give you a piece of advice: with such a meager salary, don't risk your life, or the lives of your family."

“You…” Li Wei really didn’t know how to proceed.

As an experienced veteran narcotics officer, he has a way of getting even the toughest drug dealers to talk.

But there was nothing he could do about the guy in front of him.

“If you keep interrogating him like this, you won’t get a single word out of him even if you keep interrogating him until next year,” Ye Xingchen said as he pushed open the door and entered.

"Ye Xingchen, you're here?" Bai Zilin was delighted. She quickly stood up to greet him and said with some helplessness, "This guy is too stubborn. We're trying to figure out what to do."

"Your methods won't work. Why don't you let me do it? Just give me what you need to ask," Ye Xingchen said with a smile.

“This…” Bai Zilin looked at Li Wei on the side.

“Mr. Ye, this cannot violate regulations; you are not a member of our police force,” Li Wei said, standing up.

"With your assembly-line thinking, even if you were given another ten years, you still wouldn't get a single word out of me," Ye Xingchen glared at Li Wei.

“But…” Li Wei wanted to say something, but held back. He said helplessly, “Okay, Mr. Ye, you’re right.”

"I remember I only gave you three days, and now it's the last day. If you still can't get any clues, are you planning to leave empty-handed?" Ye Xingchen said.

“This…” Li Wei said helplessly, “Then I would be too sorry for my deceased colleague.”

"Then what are you still doing here? Go outside and keep watch. Leave your questions here, and I'll have this guy write them down word by word later," Ye Xingchen said.

"Okay." Li Wei waved and led everyone out of the room.

Bai Zilin wanted to stay, but Ye Xingchen said, "What you're about to see might be a bit gory. Are you sure you want to stay and watch?"

Bai Zilin hesitated for a moment. She also felt that it might not be appropriate for her to stay here, so she could only shake her head and leave.

After everyone had left, Ye Xingchen stepped forward and unlocked Jin Xiang's handcuffs and shackles.

Jin Xiang moved his hands, which were red from Jin's touch, and then looked at Ye Xingchen in surprise: "You're going to let me go?"
