What's even more delightful is that it's packed with quality ingredients.
Fatty beef, tripe, and all sorts of ingredients are available, and the food is numbing, spicy, and fragrant. Most importantly, the piping hot temperature makes you feel comfortable from head to toe in this cold weather.
There was also a packet of noodles inside as a staple food.
Jiang Tiecheng felt instantly better after finishing that big bowl of spicy hot pot.
After eating and drinking his fill, Jiang Tiecheng put the bowl into the shop, where he now had ten empty inventory slots.
You can freely store the items you purchase from the online store.
The bowl was put into the package and immediately disappeared.
It's probably because he had already eaten the spicy hot pot, so the bowl was gone too.
Jiang Tiecheng, having eaten and drunk his fill, was dozing off against the radiator when he suddenly heard someone open the door outside.
Jiang Tiecheng woke up abruptly and hurriedly put his coat into the storage compartment.
She then handcuffed the silver bracelet to her wrist.
If someone sees this, it will be a big deal.
The door suddenly opened, and the beam of the flashlight shone in, so bright that Jiang Tiecheng had to shield his eyes with his hand.
The lights in the room were turned on, and the captain walked in.
Jiang Tiecheng looked again and saw that there was no one else beside the captain, so he immediately became alert.
This doesn't meet the standards for police officers handling cases. What is this guy trying to do?
He would never forget how aggressive, menacing, and persuasive this person had been when they met earlier that day – it was all aimed at him from every angle.
He glanced at the time on his wrist; it was 1:00 AM when this man suddenly appeared at the place where he was being held.
What could be a good thing?
Moreover, judging from his appearance alone, he doesn't seem like someone who's up to no good.
Captain Liu glanced outside the door; there was no one in the corridor. He was looking at the police station at this time of day.
At this moment, there is only one person on duty at the entrance of the police station.
There are also almost no staff members left on duty in the office.
To be precise, in those days there was no such thing as a major case requiring an emergency report in the middle of the night.
Having two staff members on duty is basically enough.
These days, 110 isn't as prevalent as it used to be, and telephones aren't as common either.
Even if a major crime occurs at night, the most they can do is go to the police station to report it.
Everyone has already gone home from get off work, so it's practically deserted.
It was during this lull that Captain Liu dared to sneak in from the backyard.
He closed the door and looked at Jiang Tiecheng.
I thought Jiang Tiecheng would probably have fainted from the cold by now.
Unexpectedly, this person was so resistant to the cold; despite wearing a fleece jacket and pants, their complexion was still quite rosy.
It didn't look like it was frozen; it looked more like it had a fever.
Jiang Tiecheng was awkwardly crouching against the radiator.
He knew this position was tiring, but he didn't intend to take off the silver bracelet.
"Comrade Jiang Tiecheng, you should know that this case is very important and the evidence is conclusive."
The only remaining fingerprints and footprints found at the scene are yours; the most recent fingerprints and footprints are all yours.
"And the bloody handprint found on the murder weapon was also yours."
"Based on all the evidence we have so far, even if you don't confess, we will definitely hand you over to the prosecutor's office. Based on the current evidence, the death penalty is a certainty."
Jiang Tiecheng didn't understand their case-handling procedures, nor did he know the tricks involved, but the other party clearly had their own intentions in saying that.
"Captain Liu, I am innocent."
"Xiao Jiang! You know that we police officers handle cases based on evidence. Based on the evidence we have so far, it's definitely you."
Even if you have 100 mouths and cry out that you are innocent, it won't help.
Moreover, once this case is submitted, the prosecutor's office can close it in less than three months, and a thief as heinous as you will definitely be sentenced to death.
Think about it, is this the outcome you wanted for Xiao Jiang? Do you want to live?
Upon hearing this, Jiang Tiecheng immediately understood that the other party had come for this reason.
“Captain Liu, I want to live. Of course I want to live. I didn’t do this at all.”
“I can also tell that you, Comrade Xiao Jiang, don’t seem like a bad person, but evidence speaks for itself, and I can’t just plead your case with words alone.”
Captain Liu had an expression that showed he was thinking of Jiang Tiecheng's best interests at heart.
"Captain Liu, you should go and investigate the evidence."
Jiang Tiecheng wanted to see what the other party was up to!
"This evidence cannot be obtained through investigation alone. All the evidence and witnesses now prove that you are a prime suspect."
Comrade Jiang Tiecheng, it's simply impossible to overturn the verdict in a short period of time.
"Captain Liu, you have to save me! I'm truly innocent. I didn't do it."
"Xiao Jiang, we also need time to continue investigating your case."
If you confess first, you won't face the death penalty, since there's a mitigating circumstance of surrendering yourself to the police.
I can plead with the judge to temporarily sentence you to life imprisonment.
As long as you're alive, the evidence we gather later will help you overturn the verdict.
"This is the only thing I can do to help you. Think about it yourself: do you want to live or die?"
This is a combination of intimidation and enticement.
These days, the mere mention of execution would terrify ordinary people.
Jiang Tiecheng is definitely going to die, but before he dies, he must sign a document to prove that he has confessed to his crime.
"So what do you mean?"
"Comrade Jiang Tiecheng, you are still young, and I am truly thinking of you."
If you plead guilty now, your attitude will be more sincere. I can plead with the judge to give you a life sentence.
