Chapter 334 Interrogation
Ye Li wanted to stop them, but as soon as she moved, she was held tightly by the soldiers and could not move at all.
The leading captain went into the house and searched around, only finding Grandma Qiu, but not Xiaomu and Xixi.
"Take the men away and lock them up for interrogation."
Ye Li argued, "You guys are right to arrest me, but Grandma Qiu is a legal citizen of District 3. She's so old and blind. Isn't it too much for you to arrest her?"
"Excessive?" The leading captain smiled and said, "She took you in, along with the two dead terrorists. It's only natural for us to arrest her. Come on, take her away!"
Ye Li and Grandma Qiu were captured and put into an armored vehicle, which drove away from the edge of the farm and headed towards the city.
In the detention room, Ye Li and Grandma Qiu were held separately.
"You can lock me up and torture me," Ye Li pleaded with the two people sitting opposite him, "but please don't torture Grandma. She's old and can't stand it. I will bear all the consequences."
"Don't worry. Once we're sure you're not suspected of being accomplices, we won't torture you," the interrogator assured. "But please cooperate with us and explain the whole story clearly, including your own background."
"Okay, I'm willing to cooperate with you." Ye Li cooperated with the interrogators and explained everything that happened before and after the two terrorists broke into his house.
"What about you? How did you get from the main city to District 3? And what a coincidence, a terrorist attack happened when you arrived in District 3."
Ye Li said calmly, "I was selected in District Two and passed the final review, so I was assigned to District Three. Because I was good at growing flowers, Miss Lei Keman appreciated me and asked me to go with her to the main city. However, Miss Lei Keman had very high standards, and I was always punished for not growing flowers well. That's why I thought of escaping to District Three."
The interrogator on the opposite side took a pen and simply wrote down what Ye Li said.
Ye Li took a breath and continued, "I knew there were trucks coming in and out every day, so I hid in one and fled to District 3. Sister Qiu is a kind person, and she took pity on me so she let me stay for a while. I never thought something like this would happen after just one night."
"We understand the general course of events," the interrogator said, "but we still need to verify the authenticity of the content."
The interrogator who had been taking notes stood up and walked out.
"Drink some water and don't be too nervous. If what you said is true, we in District 3 will definitely accept you."
"Thank you." Ye Li said gratefully.
Not long after, another interrogator returned. He slammed the notebook on the table with a sullen expression. He glared at Ye Li fiercely and said, "We've verified this with Miss Reichman from District Two. She said you behaved very well with her and even rewarded you. But you suddenly disappeared without a word. So what was your motive? Did you have anything to do with the explosion in District Three?"
Ye Li said calmly, "Ms. Reichman needs to save face. If she treated me harshly, she would definitely not admit it. If you suspect me, then just keep me locked up. Besides, I have an alibi when the bomb exploded. Just find Ah Qiu; she can testify for me!"
"Go find this guy named Qiu."
Aqiu could indeed provide an alibi for Ye Li, but she exposed the existence of the children. Aqiu did not know the inside story and just told what she knew.
Immediately, the Security Bureau of District 3 dispatched security personnel to search for the two children in the house.
However, no trace of the child was found.
"Your child is missing," the interrogator said fiercely. "Tell me! What on earth do you want to do? Since you were selected to the provincial capital alone, why do you have two more children?"
"Missing? How could they disappear?" Ye Li suddenly became anxious. District 3 is so big, and there are terrorist attacks. What should he do if he encounters bad guys?
"Let me out of here right now!" Ye Li pounded the table with his shackled hands. "Let me out of here now!"
