Chapter 2835: Delaying is a resistance to strictness
Pei Jiangchao's story spread more and more, and many people knew about it.
People who understand the current situation were not too surprised by Pei Jiangchao's kidnapping of Dai Xiongyu, because their two families were in a situation of conflict.
People who didn't know about the situation were very surprised. They couldn't understand why Pei Jiangchao kidnapped Dai Xiongyu and ruined his bright future.
At the police station, after Pei Jiangchao was brought back, he was taken directly to the interrogation room for questioning.
Although the evidence is conclusive, the process is essential, so a procedural interrogation is still necessary.
"Pei Jiangchao, you should confess the truth now!" Zheng Zhuoming asked, looking at him with a cold expression.
Pei Jiangchao remained silent and did not answer Zheng Zhuoming. Although at this point the consequences would be the same whether he confessed or not, he just didn't want to talk.
"Pei Jiangchao, I'm talking to you!" Seeing that Pei Jiangchao didn't answer, Zheng Zhuoming's tone became even colder.
"Hmph! Don't you have evidence? What else do you need me to respond to?" Pei Jiangchao responded. At this point, Pei Jiangchao didn't seem to be so scared anymore, because he knew that there was no point in being afraid, because they had already got the evidence.
"Oh! Have you worked for so many years in vain? You don't even know why I asked you to respond. Don't you understand the law at all? Well, if you understood, you wouldn't do anything illegal. I don't know how you got to this point..." Zheng Zhuoming mocked. His words were very humiliating. He questioned whether he got to this point not by his ability, but by his family.
"You..." Pei Jiangchao was very angry after being humiliated like this, but he didn't know how to refute.
"Do you know what it means to be lenient to those who confess and severe to those who resist?" Zheng Zhuoming asked.
Pei Jiangchao frowned. Of course he knew it, but he couldn't be honest because his dignity wouldn't allow it.
But, he was about to go to jail, and he still cared about his dignity?
"Pei Jiangchao, do you think that if you don't tell us, we can't do anything, or are you still fantasizing about who will save you? Ha! The evidence is conclusive, no one can save you. Now your father and your elder brother are both guilty of harboring a criminal for shielding you, and they are in trouble themselves! So the most you can do is to be lenient if you confess and severe if you resist. If you want to stay in jail for longer periods of time, then just do it!" Zheng Zhuoming said.
Because Dai Xiongyu is fine, the Dai family will not put too much pressure on him and interfere with the law to force the law to severely punish Pei Jiangchao. Instead, they will just follow the legal procedures and sentence him accordingly.
Because the Dai family is now climbing up the ladder, if they go too far, it will cause a bad reputation. If they handle things impartially, it will leave a good impression on people.
Of course, they will not accept pleas for leniency or interference from connections to ask for a lenient sentence. Doing so will make people think that the Dai family is easy to bully!
Hearing this, Pei Jiangchao could no longer keep silent, because he knew that no one would be able to save him if he waited any longer. Now he was afraid that his father and elder brother were both entangled in this crime of harboring someone! "Since you don't want to speak, let you continue to listen to the recording of you and your father and elder brother!" Zheng Zhuoming said, seeing that Pei Jiangchao was still silent, and regardless of whether Pei Jiangchao was willing to listen or not, Zheng Zhuoming directly played the recording.
Pei Jiangchao's face looked extremely ugly. He wanted to stop it, but he also wanted to listen. He would always feel unwilling if he didn't listen to it all in person.
He wanted to stop it because he would feel embarrassed if the recording was played, as there were not only him and Zheng Zhuoming in the interrogation room, but also other police officers.
I wanted to listen to it because I wanted to know if they actually recorded it all, although it was obvious that they did record it all.
So Pei Jiangchao was so conflicted and after playing a lot of recordings, he simply kept silent.
Besides, they must have listened to this recording more than once! But even though he knew this, they played it in front of him again, which still made him feel that it was humiliating him.
After the recording was played, Pei Jiangchao's face became extremely ugly.
"Pei Jiangchao, are you sure you need to remain silent?" Zheng Zhuoming asked.
"Whether I keep silent or not, won't the result be the same? If I stop keeping silent, will you let me go?" Pei Jiangchao said sarcastically. Of course he knew that Zheng Zhuoming didn't mean that, but he just wanted to speak to Zheng Zhuoming.
But he didn't understand. He thought his words were directed at Zheng Zhuoming, but to Zheng Zhuoming, he was just a clown who kept refreshing his IQ.
Of course he knew that Pei Jiangchao was deliberately attacking him, but because of this, he found Pei Jiangchao even more ridiculous.
"It seems that Director Pei doesn't understand what it means to be lenient to those who confess and severe to those who resist! In that case, do you want me to explain it to you?" Zheng Zhuoming asked, with undisguised sarcasm in his eyes.
"No need." Pei Jiangchao knew that if Zheng Zhuoming really asked him to explain it, it would seem that he didn't even understand it, which would be a great humiliation.
"Since it is not tolerated, Director Pei wants leniency for confessing or severity for resisting?" Zheng Zhuoming asked.
"So what if I confess and resist? Will the Dai family really be lenient with him? Do you think I'm a three-year-old child?" Pei Jiangchao said coldly. He didn't believe that the Dai family would be lenient with him. It would be considered good enough if they didn't torture him to death.
"You've thought too much. The Dai family isn't that sinister. The matter is entirely up to the law. However, pleading and relationships are not allowed. After all, the law is meant to be fair, isn't it?" Zheng Zhuoming said, looking at Pei Jiangchao sarcastically, apparently silently saying that he was judging others by his own standards.
If you are vicious yourself, you will also think of others as vicious.
"How is it possible?" Pei Jiangchao questioned subconsciously, feeling unconvinced, because if it were him, he would definitely beat the other party to death, so he didn't believe that the Dai family would not add fuel to the fire.
"Do you really think that everyone treats you like you? Don't assume that others will think the same thing as you do. Whether you confess or not, the time for leniency is limited. If you delay any further, you will be considered resisting the strict punishment." Zheng Zhuoming said in a bad tone, but without any impatience.
They had interrogated so many prisoners, and those who did not have sufficient evidence took a long time to interrogate. They were also patient in the interrogation. It was impossible for them to become impatient after interrogating Pei Jiangchao for just a few minutes.
Of course, because Pei Jiangchao kidnapped his nephew, he was resentful towards Pei Jiangchao in his heart, but now it was a work matter, he restrained himself and treated it without personal emotion.
In Pei Jiangchao's case, there is evidence, so there is no need to delay it for too long. Just go through the process once. Even if he does not admit it, he can be brought directly to court and convicted.
