“This is a matter for our police, and it has nothing to do with you. If you can fully cooperate with our work, you might be able to get a reduced sentence. Otherwise, I'm afraid your future will be..." Wang Shen didn't continue, but quietly observed Zheng Wu's reaction.
Zheng Wu fell silent. After a moment of silence in the interrogation room, the sound of paper being crumpled in a hand could be heard. "Do you think I'm a three-year-old? So what if she has this diary? Just because she says she raped me doesn't mean she did! I could say she seduced me! You little bitch! Everyone's only giving their side of the story, what other evidence do you have?!" Zheng Wu clenched his fists angrily, his teeth chattering.
“Look carefully, Han Mo was 14 years old at the time! A minor!” Wang Shen deliberately emphasized the last three words. “You should know China’s basic laws, right? Regardless of whether Han Mo consented or not, you have already committed a crime.”
"That was her own choice! This little bitch seduced me! Do you think I don't know anything about the law? Sue me if you want, I'll be a hero again in a few years!" Zheng Wu slammed his hand on the table in front of him, and was then pushed into a chair by the policeman next to him.
Just then, Wang Shen received a message on his phone: "Sang has confessed to many things, and there's been a new major discovery." Shortly after, Wang Shen received a picture. He replied, "Go to the document processing room and make a copy of this testimony for me." Wang Shen smiled slightly at Zheng Wuwei. For the next few minutes, only Wang Shen and Zheng Wuwei remained in a silent standoff.
The interrogation room door was knocked open, and Xu Xiaolin appeared in the doorway. Xu Xiaolin handed Sang's confession to Wang Shen. Wang Shen glanced at the confession in his hand, then placed it in front of Zheng Wu. "This... I'm afraid he won't be able to be a hero even decades later."
Zheng Wu frowned, looking at Wang Shen with a puzzled expression, then picked up the paper in front of him with a hint of disbelief. "Bullshit! That bitch! She's talking nonsense!" Zheng Wu was clearly much more agitated than before, and suddenly stood up from his chair. At that moment, another policeman rushed in through the door, and two officers on either side of him firmly pinned Zheng Wu to his chair.
Sang's confession reads: "I was able to be with Zheng Wu purely because he often gave me money and things. I know he might be doing some illegal things behind the scenes, but I guarantee I have nothing to do with them. Our relationship was purely consensual; I satisfied him physically, and he satisfied me materially. The day this connection ends, our relationship will end, that's all." She did mention some of Zheng Wu's private affairs to me. One of them was that he seemed to have raped her stepdaughter several years ago. But I could tell he wasn't happy about it; he was even somewhat afraid…
"Now, not only Han Mo's diary, but also your... 'confidante' has pointed out your guilt. No matter how you deny it, I believe you won't get away with it in the face of the law. If you continue to refuse to cooperate with our investigation, and we don't have any more valuable clues, you may become the final suspect in Han Mo's case."
"Nonsense, I didn't even step into that little bastard's door that day!"
"Tell me first why you went to Han Mo's house that night," Wang Shen smiled, took out paper and pen, and waited for Zheng Wu's statement.
Zheng Wu's body went completely limp. Wang Shen waved to the two policemen beside Zheng Wu. The two policemen released Zheng Wu's arms and stood aside.
"She called me that day and asked me to go," Zheng Wu said weakly as he began to explain why he went to Han Mo's house.
"Around what time in the evening did you receive Han Mo's call?"
"It's not even 10 o'clock yet."
Wang Shen wrote down the words "before ten o'clock" in his notebook. It seemed Han Mo had called Zheng Wu after making the food order. "How can you remember the time so clearly?" Wang Shen continued to press.
"Because I was at the bar at the time. It was the bar's anniversary celebration that day, and there was an event at 10 p.m. I left just before the event started."
"Have you noticed the tone of Han Mo's voice when she calls you?"
"Who cares about that little bastard's tone?" Zheng Wu said, curling his lip.
"I hope you can answer my questions properly, otherwise it won't help clear your name."
Zheng Wu gritted his teeth, thought for a moment, and then said, "Your speech is a little broken and trembling!"
