Floating Island
The operation resulted in the arrest of over 500 individuals involved, including 20 management personnel, over 100 employees, and over 300 trapped individuals. Furthermore, the list of names Qu Mengting brought back helped them compile a tally of the number of victims who had come to the island over the past decade. Combined with the USB drive Jiang Li brought back, they uncovered a list of some of the most influential individuals who had come to the island, most of whom held higher official ranks than their own.
In addition to these, the police also seized a batch of unsold white powder in the basement of the castle. After inspection, it was found to be very ordinary white powder, which was probably provided to the dignitaries who came to the island.
When asked how to deal with the dead, Xu Ning said this.
"The person is dead anyway, so why bother about where he is buried?"
She said that when she had the time, she would bury it in the flower garden, and when she didn't, she would just throw it into the sea and feed the fish.
There is no reverence for life in his words.
When people go too far, they forget that they are human beings.
Sitting high up, they truly believe they are gods. Thus, the dense crowds of people become ants in their eyes. No one will bend down to see an ant's face, listen to an ant's words, or understand an ant's suffering. Their cold eyes transform the crowds of people into ants, easily crushed to death.
The power behind this case still needs to be further investigated, and the full picture of the black hole has not yet been revealed. The investigation team seems to have new arrangements, and the subsequent operations will no longer be under the jurisdiction of the serious crime team.
During the operation, Xun Muke came to the Municipal Bureau twice. Wen Junhui never explained how he knew what happened that year. Chen An was very concerned about this. Before leaving, he specifically asked him to wait for him to come back to interrogate him again. Unexpectedly, Xun Muke asked him the answer first.
It was probably the day after she met Lin Ran that she walked in and saw Zhou Qiong sorting out Wen Junhui's information, so she stayed for a while.
He did not go with the operation this time. As far as she knew, Zhou Qiong had some connections above him, and as an intern he probably wouldn't stay in the serious crime squad for too long.
"Sister Xun." Zhou Qiong had heard of her and was very respectful to her.
Wen Junhui confessed to all the crimes, described the crime process in great detail, and cooperated very well, but he did not answer that question. The director meant to close the case as soon as possible.
Zhou Qiong was the only one in the serious crime team these days, so the case report was naturally handed over to him to write.
Zhou Qiong said that Wen Junhui's condition was very stable and stable. After asking the deputy director, Xun Muke wanted to see him in person. She put down her bag, and the chain on the bag made a crisp sound when it hit the table.
He didn't look up, didn't even move his eyes.
"Hello."
Wen Junhui showed some reaction. He raised his head slightly and said weakly, "I've explained everything. Do you need me to repeat it again, Officer?"
"I'm not here to interrogate you. I just want to answer a question in my mind." Xun Muke said gently, "I never underestimate a father's love for his daughter. I've reduced your sentence by two years. I imagine you must have been looking for Luo Fanyin for a long time. Can I ask how you got this information about her?"
This question directly determines whether there is a larger force behind this to guide these groups.
Her intuition as a former police officer led her to connect Luo Fanyin's case with the previous case.
Wen Junhui looked dazed and unresponsive. After a few minutes, he said nothing and lowered his head silently.
"It's okay, it's okay if you don't answer. No matter how you learned the truth, I just want to tell you that there are still people working hard for her. Three days ago, an 18-year-old boy, with the help of the police, went deep into the den just to expose the truth and save more victims like Luo Fanyin."
"Being hurt is not the victim's fault. Every scar they leave on the victim is not a shame for the victim, but a shackle that binds the criminal."
"If you want to provide any clues, you can always do so."
Xun Muke stood up and bowed slightly to him, "My condolences."
Just before she opened the door and left, Wen Junhui called out to her, "Wait."
Xun Muke turned around, tears in his eyes, and asked, "Officer, how old are you this year?"
She replied, “29.”
The veins on his handcuffed hands bulged, and the interrogation room was filled with the sound of a man crying, sad and heavy.
She came twice in total, once to listen to him talk about the two years he had spent looking for his daughter, and once to go back to his house and find the tape as he had said.
The tape recorded the entire process of Luo Fanyin being tortured and killed, an hour and a half of torture, and a shocking death.
What kind of mood would a father be in when watching this video, and how much hatred would he have to endure, lying dormant and waiting for the opportunity.
Although the castle was almost destroyed by fire, the USB flash drives, lists and picture albums brought back were enough to prove the existence of this criminal empire.
When Qu Mengting flipped through the album page by page and saw the signature clearly, a tear blurred the ink. It turned out that Fang Junwen was not her name.
Before this, this name only appeared in Lin Ran's confession. The thick file was filled with a whole page of the process of him and Fang Junwen discussing how to pass on the evidence. Unfortunately, the matter was exposed, and Fang Junwen took all the blame and died in the torture chamber, and he returned to the world with a nightmare.
After going around in circles, none of them came back.
Cheng Minli and Xu Qiuqiu were successfully brought back. If necessary, they will work with Lin Ran as witnesses to send the Qian family, the biggest beneficiary of the floating island industry, to prison.
In addition, a group of people who had been to the island were arrested on charges of selling prostitution through PC, including celebrities from the entertainment industry, new business leaders, and even some political bigwigs.
No one would have thought that a girl's accidental death would involve a shocking crime. Perhaps today they only touched a small part of the melon stem, but moving forward, the truth will come out one day.
There was too much information to organize, so Xun Muke, who came to have dinner with her, also helped to organize some of it. In her hand was the list of visitors who had been to the island. When she counted to page 34, her eyes lingered for two seconds, and then Chen An's voice came from the door.
"You're here to help, it seems you're busy enough."
He looked in good spirits. Xun Muke smiled and asked, "How is Jiang Li?"
"He's fine."
"That's good." Xun Muke let out a long sigh.
In the past few days, she has managed to piece together the situation from the word-of-mouth of the city police officers.
Of course, the main person responsible for spreading the news was "Deputy Captain" Cheng Xiaoxiang. He repeated the scene of that day hundreds of times throughout the Municipal Bureau, and he was just short of setting up a stage to perform it again on the spot.
"Don't even mention it. The scene when the boss brought Jiang Li out of the sea of fire was so spectacular... Ouch!" Cheng Xiaoxiang covered his head, "Who hit me?"
Lu Yuyao rolled his eyes at him and said, "What a spectacular sight! Didn't you see the boss's face turned pale with fear?"
Jiang Li's shirt was almost soaked in blood, and he leaned lifelessly on his shoulder. The medical facilities in Country M were not perfect, and there were no doctors among the accompanying team members. Jiang Li's left arm was hastily bandaged and immediately sent back to the country by helicopter. As soon as he landed, he was sent to the nearest Grade A hospital for treatment.
He was shot in the left arm and the bullet remained embedded for more than twelve hours. He was lucky that it did not get infected. In addition, his face, back, arms and legs were mostly abrasions, and he stayed in the hospital for two days.
Chen An did not leave the ward for two days. Even though the doctor said that he was no longer seriously ill and just needed to sleep and rest normally, he refused to leave.
For two days, the most he'd done was wipe Jiang Li's hands. This operation not only examined new injuries but also uncovered old ones. It was during this trip that he finally understood why Jiang Li never had a short-sleeved shirt in his suitcase, and why, in the scorching summer heat, everyone else wore short-sleeved shirts and shorts, while he was the only one who stubbornly wore a long shirt and long pants.
The mottled and crisscrossing scars are firmly attached to the boy's arms, thighs, and back, some deep and some shallow.
Pushing up his sleeve, he saw a large and fierce scar extending from his right elbow, just like the one he saw in the milk tea shop that day. He had always been careful to guard his self-esteem.
Looking at it this way, apart from this face, there is no good place on the body.
He couldn't imagine what kind of life Jiang Li had led in the past eighteen years. There were only a few words on his resume to describe his cruel father and his difficult fifteen years of growing up. Those light words carried over his real fifteen years of life.
The two not-so-delicate hands were clasped together, and he looked at the person sleeping on the bed, stroking the back of the person's hand with his thumb. A gust of wind came in, and the curtains bulged. Chen An got up and closed the window.
The wind seemed to wake someone up, and before sunset, the person on the bed pulled him.
