Chapter 15 What is your relationship?
A victim who is supposed to be hidden or kidnapped is able to enter and leave the criminal's home freely?
Could it be that Zhou Xubai really made a mistake?
Cheng Ye stared at Su Yumian and saw that his eyes were red and swollen and his steps were unsteady. He absolutely did not believe that he was mistaken. Based on his understanding of lunatics like Fu Quezhou, his freedom was only temporary.
"Su Yumian, I have a few questions now..."
“Ugh…!”
When Su Yumian went downstairs, his legs were so weak that he almost fell down. He had not had a drop of water in the past few days and had just cried bitterly, so he was exhausted.
Cheng Ye subconsciously reached out his hand to support her, but Fu Quezhou was one step faster. He hugged Su Yumian tightly, his tone concerned and his eyes doting, "Look at you, you were angry with me and refused to eat. Now you have no strength left."
Faced with the arm that suddenly tightened around her waist and Fu Quezhou's sudden pretended tenderness, Su Yumian felt extremely resistant.
But he couldn't show it, so he could only force a smile and gently push him away: "I'm fine."
Because of the excessive movement, Xiao Zhang noticed the red mark on Su Yumian's right ankle.
He reminded quietly: "Boss, look at his feet."
Hearing this, Cheng Ye took a look and saw that the red mark on Su Yumian's right ankle was obviously new.
Noticing Cheng Ye's gaze, Su Yumian subconsciously moved his right ankle back to hide it. Although the movement was small, it made Cheng Ye frown.
"Still being stubborn, I'll help you sit on the sofa, slowly."
The hope of freedom was right before his eyes. The moment Su Yumian looked at Cheng Ye, the hand around his waist suddenly tightened, scaring him so much that he had to lower his head quickly. He said "hmm" softly and followed him obediently.
When he passed by Cheng Ye, he was also destined to miss his freedom.
Cheng Ye frowned as he looked at Su Yumian, who was as docile as a little lamb. He had solved countless cases, so how could he not see that Su Yumian was being threatened.
He turned around and followed the two of them. After they sat down, Cheng Ye asked, "Can I talk to Su Yumian alone?"
Fu Quezhou was stunned for a moment, then stood up and said, "Go ahead."
After saying that, Fu Quezhou walked to the wine cabinet, took out a bottle of red wine, poured half a glass and sipped it.
Seeing this, Cheng Ye quickly sat down next to Su Yumian, stole a glance at Fu Quezhou, and then asked in a low voice: "Su Yumian, don't be afraid. Tell me honestly, did he imprison you?"
Su Yumian lowered his head, his legs together, and he looked very stiff, as if he was stretched to a taut thread.
Hearing Cheng Ye's words, he said in a mosquito-like voice: "No."
Cheng Ye was stunned for a moment, then continued to ask: "Did he threaten you by saying this? You are still afraid. As long as you tell the truth, we will do our best to save you."
These words were like a ray of light shining into his dark prison. He dug his fingertips into his palm so hard that his nails turned inside out, as if this could suppress the truth that was about to burst out.
But he suddenly remembered his parents back home. He finally opened his mouth, his voice seemed to be choked by something, and only a very soft word escaped, "Really not."
Cheng Ye's gaze was too scorching, so he had to look away. He was afraid that he would burst into tears if he met Cheng Ye's gaze.
Su Yumian's non-cooperation gave Cheng Ye a headache. He thought that if he could get Su Yumian's testimony, he could also take down Fu Quezhou.
But now...
He finally sighed helplessly, glanced at Fu Quezhou who was standing by the bed, looking at the scenery outside and tasting wine, and hurriedly took out a pen and paper from his arms, wrote down his contact information, and quickly stuffed it into Su Yumian's hand.
"Call me if you figure it out."
Fu Quezhou glanced at the time and turned around just in time to see Cheng Ye patting Su Yumian's shoulder. A cold light suddenly flashed in his eyes.
He put down his glass and walked towards the two of them: "Have you talked enough?"
He sat down directly between the two of them and pushed Cheng Ye aside.
Cheng Ye cursed him inwardly as a psychopath. Seeing him holding Su Yumian's hands, he was afraid that Fu Quezhou would find the note with his contact information, so he quickly changed the subject.
"What is your relationship?"
He knew best what kind of terrifying face was hidden under Fu Quezhou's hypocritical mask, despite his deliberately disguised intimacy.
Hearing this, Fu Quezhou picked up Su Yumian from the sofa, sat her on his lap, and tilted his head to look at Cheng Ye: "Can't you see?"
Cheng Ye: ...
Xiao Zhang: ...
He only knew that Fu Quezhou was a madman who experimented on living people, but he didn't expect that he had such a hobby.
But what kind of society is this now? He has no interest in asking about the sexual orientation of a madman.
The most urgent task now is to solve Su Yumian’s problem.
"Professor Fu, what is your response to the kidnapping of Su Yumian?" Although Cheng Ye appears to be nonchalant on the surface, he is actually very sharp when asking questions.
But Fu Quezhou was not an easy person to get along with. He casually held Su Yumian's head, let him lean on his shoulder, and stroked his hair from time to time, as if he was caressing a docile cat.
"Officer, before answering your question, I have a few questions for you."
Cheng Ye was stunned. "Ask."
Fu Quezhou lowered his head slightly, glanced at Su Yumian, who was trembling slightly in his arms, and said in a deep voice, "Let's not talk about the fact that I love Su Yumian so much that I wouldn't kidnap him. Officer Cheng broke into private property with a search warrant without saying a word, and kept accusing me of kidnapping. May I ask... what is your basis for this?"
His words were sharp, each one hitting the nail on the head. His eyes suddenly turned cold, staring straight at Cheng Ye, as if he would cut him into pieces if he couldn't come up with a reason to convince him.
Cheng Ye had seen all sorts of storms and waves, so he naturally wouldn't be frightened by Fu Quezhou's aura. But it was a pity for Xiao Zhang behind him.
"Boss, his eyes have changed..." Xiao Zhang whispered while hiding behind Cheng Ye.
Cheng Ye ignored Xiao Zhang's words, met Fu Quezhou's gaze and said, "We received a report from the public, and you also..."
"Officer Cheng wants to convict me based on this alone? You really have too much disdain for our country's laws."
Fu Quezhou suddenly interrupted Cheng Ye and stroked Su Yumian with increased force, pulling his hair.
"I……"
Cheng Ye was so stunned by Fu Quezhou's words that he didn't know how to refute. Indeed, based on that little clue, he suspected that Fu Quezhou was not an experienced person.
The reason why he suspected Fu Quezhou was more based on his intuition.
He went into the house to search based on his intuition. If Fu Quezhou took it too far, he would have to face lawsuit.
Finally, he sighed and said, "I was inconsiderate to come here so suddenly, but..." He paused and glanced at Su Yumian in his arms, "Don't be too proud. I will eventually find something to hold against you."
Hearing this, Fu Quezhou shrugged nonchalantly: "Please, I'm always here for you."
Cheng Ye could only snort coldly and said to Xiao Zhang: "Let's go."
Xiao Zhang was still stunned by Fu Quezhou's cold gaze, and he didn't come back to his senses until Cheng Ye left the door. He hurried to catch up, "Boss, wait for me!"
As the car engine roared away, Fu Quezhou pretended to notice Su Yumian's clenched fist and asked jokingly, "What are you holding in your hand?"
