Chapter 288 Separate Inquiries



The child abuse case undoubtedly fell on Xi Feng again.

When he saw the names of the parties involved, his face remained calm and he even felt like laughing.

The Peng family’s mess is not over yet!

Xi Feng dialed Wan Jingjing's home phone number as if he knew the place well, but no one answered.

I called Ying Kui again, but still no one answered.

When I checked the address, I found out that it was next door to Yu Rou's house.

Their family is somewhat related to the Yu family, and they have also met Yu Rou. Xi Feng could only find Yu Rou and ask her if she knew where Wan Jingjing was.

A soft female voice came through the receiver, calmly asking:

"Is the Peng family going to sue Wan Jingjing for child abuse?"

It was a question, but it sounded like something she had anticipated, almost a statement. Xi Feng felt embarrassed to confront her about this, so he remained silent.

"We will be there in the afternoon. Let them come and confront each other face to face."

"Sister, logically speaking, we should summon the parties involved first..."

"She is with Ying Kui. Summon her if you dare."

Thinking that Ying Kui could suppress Peng Zhendong, Xi Feng, adhering to the principle of flexibility, said that he only asked Wan Jingjing to come and cooperate with the investigation. At the same time, according to Wan Jingjing's request, he also invited the Peng family to come and charge them with defamation.

Not long after, Wan Jingjing arrived at the police station accompanied by Ying Kui. Xi Feng looked a little embarrassed and asked tentatively:

"Ms. Wan, please cooperate with our procedures. A female police officer will ask you some questions."

"It's okay, just follow the rules."

Wan Jingjing was very cooperative, which made Xi Feng feel greatly relieved.

After all, they had to follow procedures when handling cases, and they couldn't just let the two families have a huge argument at the police station like before. That would be a complete loss of face and dignity.

Xi Feng had specifically instructed that he should not enter the interrogation room. Two policemen, one male and one female, cooperated with the questioning.

"Name?"

"Wan Jingjing."

"What's your relationship with Peng Bo? What's your relationship with Peng Nuan?"

"Peng Bo is my ex-husband, and Peng Nuan is his adopted daughter. After the marriage ended, Peng Nuan and I have nothing to do with each other."

Adopted daughter.

The two police officers exchanged a surprised glance. After all, the Peng family had always claimed that Peng Nuan was their biological child. They hadn't expected to hear such shocking news while investigating a case. If the reporters knew about it, they would only go even more crazy.

Wan Jingjing naturally knew the consequences of speaking out, but she had nothing to do with the Peng family now and had no obligation to cover up for them.

"Your adopted daughter reported at school that you beat and abused her at home before your divorce. Do you admit this?"

"I have no feelings for her. I have never touched her."

"But you also said that she was your ex-husband's adopted daughter. You don't have your own children, and he treats his adopted daughter so well. Do you find it annoying or angry?"

"We have our own children."

Wan Jingjing once again dropped a thunderclap. In the past, she would have choked up every time she mentioned her lost child, but now she could pass it over calmly.

"The child was lost and never found, and everyone in the family was very sad. To calm the parents' feelings, Peng Bo brought home a girl of similar age."

"So Peng Nuan replaced your biological daughter, and you don't have the slightest complaint against her?"

Wan Jingjing looked up at the policewoman who was questioning her. As was her duty, her questions were pointed, but they hit the mark.

She really didn't like Peng Nuan.

As a mother, if she accepted Peng Nuan, it would be a betrayal to her own daughter.

"My child is missing, and her grandparents, and even her father, don't want to look for her anymore. If I forget about her too, she'll hate me to death if she finds out in the future."

"I really don't like Peng Nuan, but there's no need to hit her. She's loved by others and lives a comfortable life in the Peng family. If I hit her, judging by the Peng family's current behavior, they should have attacked me before the divorce. Why wait until now?"

It makes logical sense that Wan Jingjing refuses to admit any abuse.

As for the evidence, we have to wait until Peng Nuan can produce actual evidence of her abuse before we come to her.

The two police officers asked a lot more questions. Most of them were about Wan Jingjing herself, which could be easily understood with a little investigation. They also mixed in some questions about the Peng family. This was a skillful interrogation, and Wan Jingjing didn't show any impatience.

"That's all for today. You can rest here for a while. Peng Nuan will be here later."

The two exchanged glances, then walked out the door with the records. Xi Feng was standing in the hallway, and as soon as he saw it was over, he immediately came forward.

"Well, do you think there is anything suspicious?"

"Brother Xi, do you think the child will lie?"

As soon as the question came up, Xi Feng already had an idea in mind.

"Captain Xi." Ying Kui stepped forward immediately after the questioning was over. "I have a favor to ask of you."

The two police officers left in unison, leaving the room open for the two men to talk. Ying Kui didn't engage in bureaucratic jargon and went straight to the point with his request:

"When the Peng family arrives, follow the procedure. If they ask for reconciliation, arrange a room for Jingjing and Peng Nuan to face off alone."

"A one-on-one confrontation?"

Xi Feng looked a bit embarrassed. After all, the other party had accused Wan Jingjing of abuse and would probably not agree to let the two of them be alone.

Ying Kui also knew his concerns and pointed to the interrogation room nearby.

"There are only two of them inside, and the others can watch outside."

"I know you have a way to make the noise from inside come out. If Jingjing dares to make a move in the police station, you can catch her red-handed."

This statement was insulting. If Wan Jingjing really dared to beat the child under their noses, it would undoubtedly be a slap in the face of the police station.

Xi Feng had to agree even if he didn't want to.

"I'll arrange it."

Once the interrogation room matters were settled, the Peng family arrived in force. Peng Nuan followed closely, holding Zhuo Qiang's hand, while Peng Bo's face was gloomy.

Ying Kui was in the hall, looking at him sideways.

"laugh."

Bloomberg's face turned even paler with disdain evident in his words, but he couldn't utter a word to refute.

For the sake of the Peng family, he had to acquiesce to his father's behavior.

Xi Feng handled the matter impartially, arranging two female police officers to question Peng Nuan and rejecting Zhuo Qiang's request for her to accompany him.

Compared to adults, children's interrogation was obviously much smoother. However, when Peng Nuan left, her face was covered with tears, obviously she had cried again, which made Zhuo Qiang feel very distressed.

Peng Bo felt no emotion at all. He knew better than anyone that Wan Jingjing would never lay a hand on Peng Nuan. Why was she crying?

In the past, when Peng Nuan pouted, he would want to pick stars to comfort her, but now he just felt a chill in his heart.

Xi Feng glanced over, and the leading female police officer glanced at Peng Nuan and whispered, "Full of loopholes."

The Peng family was so concerned that they believed everything Peng Nuan said and protected their child unconditionally. But once the police got involved, Peng Nuan's tricks were like paper tigers, easily broken.

He could tell the time, place and part of the body that was hit.

He just said it and then forgot it. It's complete nonsense.
