"Hiss!" Zhou Han sat alone in the dark interrogation room, his thigh throbbing with excruciating pain, causing him to break out in a cold sweat.
He spent several days alone in the interrogation room, completely unaware of how much time had passed, feeling drowsy and feverish.
Although the wound on my leg has been treated, it still hurts, and my whole leg is swollen.
However, his wounds did not distract him at all; he was more concerned about his family and Bai Rongjun's situation.
He hadn't seen her since he was brought back, and no matter how he questioned the interrogators, they wouldn't tell him anything about his girlfriend.
"Zhou Han, confess and you'll be treated leniently, resist and you'll be punished severely. If you continue to conceal important information as before..." It was time for the routine questioning again, and they knocked on the door and came in.
His sharp eyes were fixed on Zhou Han, as if he wanted to poke holes through him.
"I believe you should be aware of the consequences."
No one could withstand such intense interrogation, especially since he was injured and now his whole body was swollen, his eyes were unfocused and his face was pale.
However, everyone knows he's still holding on; he's a tough nut to crack.
"I have told you everything I know. I planned all of this by myself, and it has nothing to do with Comrade Bai Rongjun."
"Then why do you do these things that capitalist roaders do?"
This question has been asked countless times in the past few days, and Zhou Han could answer it with his eyes closed.
"I failed to resist the temptation of capital and let down the Party and the country's education of me. We are the proletariat and should not be corrupted by the bullets of capitalism."
"Just to improve your own life? It has nothing to do with others?"
"No, it was all my personal choice."
"So you're saying it has nothing to do with your fiancée? We got the ledgers from your superiors. Where did all the money you earned go?"
Don't tell me you spent it all on yourself. We know you're incredibly good to your fiancée. You take time off work to buy supplies from the supply and marketing cooperative, and sometimes you even buy meat to cook for her. This doesn't seem like what you said, that you spend all the money on yourself.
Everyone had a knowing smile on their faces. This guy was actually a womanizer, but not only did he leave his fiancée alone with a stranger, he also dragged her into it.
However, now that the Bai family's situation has come to light, it's unclear who dragged whom into this mess.
“It was all my personal decision; she had no idea where the money came from.”
"In other words, Bai Rongjun is completely innocent. Just as she said, you coerced her into doing it."
Zhou Han was silent for a moment, then nodded immediately.
The interrogation room, which had been completely dark, was lit up when they entered. The long period of darkness caused Zhou Han's eyes to water when suddenly exposed to the bright light, and only then could he see them clearly.
"We've interrogated you for days, and you've consistently maintained that Bai Rongjun has nothing to do with smuggling, and that you orchestrated the whole thing?"
Zhou Han nodded, and the interrogator closed his pen with a half-smile.
"Then why are you in such a hurry to make money? Is it simply to improve your life, or have you been unable to resist the bullets of capitalism?"
Or is it because someone else is pressuring you to earn money to support her illegal activities?
Zhou Han thought they were doing the same thing as a few days ago, trying to find a way to ask questions from different angles, hoping to make him reveal a flaw and drag Bai Rongjun into it.
But I didn't expect that what they said later would be completely different from what they said a few days ago.
"I don't know what you're talking about?"
What constitutes illegal activity? His father embezzled money, leaving a huge deficit. What does that have to do with illegal activity?
