Chapter 40: Heavy Rain is Coming (I)
In the interrogation room, Brother Wang kept his head down and remained silent. No matter how he was questioned, he just kept silent. For a full half hour, not a single word was extracted from him.
Seeing that Gao Bochuan was about to get angry, Xia Beibei quickly pulled him out.
"Boss, I asked Xiao Zhou to retrieve the surveillance footage of me chasing Chen Yu. A white Jetta car looked suspicious. My vision was blocked for a section of the road. The two cars happened to be very close to each other, and then they separated after passing a blind spot in the surveillance. I suspect Chen Yu got into that car. However, in the surveillance footage, the front and rear license plates of that car were cleverly blocked by other vehicles."
At this point, she pointed to the interrogation room and said, "Leave this to me. I have a way to make him talk. I have asked Xiao Zhou to hand over the vehicle video to the identification center for investigation. If you have nothing to do, go and take a look."
Gao Bochuan raised his eyebrows, "Are you ordering me?"
Xia Beibei was stunned, then shook her head and waved her hands desperately, "Absolutely not, Boss, I'm just suggesting, suggesting"
Gao Bochuan smiled and pinched her chin, giving her a light kiss. "Apart from my superiors, only my wife can order me around. I'm going to the appraisal center now."
Xia Beibei heard the hint in his words, her face flushed, she glared at him with charming eyes, then reached out and grabbed his arm, leaned closer, and said cautiously:
"Boss, can you turn off the camera inside?"
Gao Bochuan looked at her, not seeming surprised at all, and smiled as he pinched her face, "I'll agree if you kiss me."
Xia Beibei blinked, stood on tiptoe and quickly kissed him on the face. Gao Bochuan touched her face and then her head.
"Be gentle, don't kill anyone"
Xia Beibei's face lit up with joy. She leaned over and kissed him on the face again, then ran back to the interrogation room. Gao Bochuan reached out and called a young police officer next to him.
"Turn off the cameras inside for half an hour"
The young police officer was surprised and hesitated, "Captain Gao, this..."
Gao Bochuan interrupted him, his tone brooking no room for rebuttal, "If anyone asks, just say I shut it down. If there are any problems, I'll take care of them. Just do as I say."
In the interrogation room, Brother Wang was handcuffed to an iron chair with his eyes closed as if he was asleep. He didn't even raise his head when he heard someone come in.
Brother Wang’s real name is Wang Dian. He is 32 years old and from Liu County, Yunnan City. He runs an auto repair shop. He is divorced and has a son who lives with his ex-wife. This is all the information the police found based on his ID card.
Xia Beibei walked over with a cup in her hand, and seeing that he was still keeping his head down and looking indifferent, she poured the cup of ice water directly on his face.
"Shit! What are you doing!?"
Wang Dian finally raised his head and stared at Xia Beibei in disbelief with an extremely ugly expression. Xia Beibei walked to the opposite side, pulled over a chair and sat down, crossed her legs, and pointed at the camera in the corner with a smile.
"I saw you were asleep, so I just wanted to wake you up. Why are you making such a fuss? The camera is off now. What do you think I should do? Even if I kill you now, no one will care."
Wang Dian sneered, with sarcasm on his face, "You are a policeman, you dare not kill me."
Xia Beibei also laughed with him, but the smile did not reach her eyes.
"Why shouldn't I kill you? You're a member of the Sun Organization, right? Even if you didn't participate in the Xia family massacre 20 years ago, you're still in the wolf's den. Is it strange for me to kill one more wolf to vent my anger while avenging the massacre of my family?"
Wang Dian's expression changed, and he suddenly remembered something. He quickly turned his eyes away, with a look of disdain on his face.
"You don't have to trick me. I know nothing. You can't treat me as a murderer just because of that woman named Zhang Yan. If you have evidence, show it to me. If you don't have evidence, you'd better let me go immediately. Otherwise, I will sue you for abusing your power to arbitrarily arrest innocent citizens."
He made it clear that he would not cooperate no matter what. Xia Beibei stood up, tilted her neck, stretched her muscles, and walked towards him with a dangerous sneer on her lips.
"Is it because it's too hot that your brain has turned into mush and you don't know anything? I have a way to help you think better."
After she finished speaking, she walked to Wang Dian, raised her hand and slapped him. This slap stunned Wang Dian. He didn't expect Xia Beibei to actually dare to do that.
"You're crazy!"
He stared at her with his eyes wide open and his teeth bared. Xia Beibei flexed her wrist, her face gloomy and full of sarcasm.
"Mad man? Tsk, it seems that this slap was too light, the paste in your brain has not yet dispersed."
As she spoke, she suddenly grabbed his hair, pulled it back hard, and then slammed him hard against the table in front of him. Wang Dian was hit on the forehead, and his eyes turned bloodshot from the pain.
Xia Beibei let go of her hand with disgust and turned back to sit in the chair.
"I know you didn't kill Fu Wei. On the contrary, Fu Wei knew someone was trying to kill him, so he asked you for help, right?"
Wang Dian was rubbing his forehead with his hand and cursing. He was stunned when he heard the words. He didn't care about the pain in his forehead. His body trembled. When he saw Xia Beibei looking at him, he quickly turned his head away.
Xia Beibei smiled, crossed her legs and changed her sitting position.
"You don't think that I can only solve cases by peeping into people's minds, do you? Even if you don't look at me, I know what you are thinking. Fu Wei participated in something that happened 20 years ago, and he was able to live peacefully for 20 years. This shows that he is not stupid."
"He was hiding well, but suddenly came to Hai City and finally hid in Zhang Tao's small hotel. This shows that he knew someone wanted to kill him. Zhang Yan said that he was always polite to you, even afraid of you, which shows that he thought you were the one who could save his life."
Wang Dian pursed his lips and his face twitched slightly. He wanted to refute, but when he looked up, his forehead was already covered with sweat. Xia Beibei looked at him and said slowly:
"But not only did you not save him, you even told the real murderer that he was hiding in Zhang Tao Hotel, right?"
Wang Dian twitched the corner of his mouth, "Why do you say that?"
Xia Beibei said, "He met you many times in Hai City, which means he trusts you very much. Or maybe you are his last hope. You must know the hotel where he is hiding, or maybe you helped him find that hotel."
"And the refrigerator in the room. Zhang Tao said that the refrigerator was moved there before Fu Wei died. He must have known about this. So the friend of Fu Wei that Zhang Tao mentioned is you. You moved the refrigerator there. You helped the murderer move it there, right?"
Wang Dian did not answer her, but his eyes kept moving, his hands on the table were tightly clasped, and he began to feel embarrassed and nervous as if someone had seen through his thoughts.
Xia Beibei stood up again and walked over, resting her hands on the table in front of him, half-closed her eyes and said coldly:
"I know you have been trained and you have your own rules. Perhaps you would rather die than betray the organization, but Wang Dian, everyone has a bottom line that cannot be crossed. Your bottom line is your son, right?"
She took Wang Dian's cell phone out of her pocket and threw it on the table. The screen lit up, and the wallpaper was a photo of Wang Dian and a boy. Wang Dian looked up, his breathing suddenly became rapid, his chest heaving violently, and his eyes were bloodshot.
"What do you want to do!"
Xia Beibei curled her lips and said in a low voice: "Didn't you say I was crazy? Yes, I am indeed crazy, Wang Dian, I won't make things difficult for you. If my guess is correct, the person who wants to kill Fu Wei should be related to the person who wiped out my entire Xia family back then."
"I know that if I ask you who your boss is, you won't tell me. But we have spent a lot of police resources on this operation. You can't let us go through this in vain. So, who is the murderer?"
Wang Dian's forehead was covered with sweat, but he never spoke. Xia Beibei gradually became impatient and sneered:
"Why, you won't even cooperate with this small request? That means your son's life is not as important as the murderer's life. So, how about this? You continue to remain silent and I will kill your son. Although it won't make me feel better, it will be a tribute to the dead souls of my Xia family."
"How dare you! You...don't forget, you are a policeman!"
Wang Dian suddenly raised his voice and a look of fear began to appear on his face. Seeing this, Xia Beibei was amused.
"You think that fairness and justice that the law cannot provide can only be solved through killing. You think that fighting violence with violence is the fairest thing. I just want to use your methods to avenge my family. Although your son is innocent, he is your son because you are a member of the Sun Organization, so his death is not unjust."
Having said this, Xia Beibei suddenly lowered her head and looked at him intently, with a terrifying and aggressive light in her eyes.
"Do you know why I bumped into him today? Because I thought Chen Yu was still in there. Since I was a kid, I told myself that if I encounter anyone from the Sun Organization, no matter if he was involved in the case or not, I will kill him every time even if I have to take off my police uniform. So, you'd better not take any chances. If you push me too far, I will really kill your son."
Wang Dian's face was ashen. He wanted to remain silent, but at this moment, the hatred in Xia Beibei's eyes shocked and frightened him. He hesitated and did not dare to gamble.
After struggling for a while, his psychological defenses were broken and he finally succumbed.
"Regarding the organization, even if you kill me, I still won't say a word. I don't know who killed Fu Wei. I just arranged everything in advance according to the instructions. As for who they sent, I don't know, but you can go and check someone."
