Chapter 265: Chapter 264 Confronting Gu Xijun (4/5)

Liu Zekai was completely dumbstruck, his face full of terror, his mouth agape, barely able to speak,

he looked towards the glass direction, his eyes filled with fear.

After a long moment, Liu Zekai finally came to, screaming in horror, "I confess! I’ll confess to everything! Give me a chance! Give me a chance! I found the people, but it was my dad who arranged it, he forced me! He forced me into everything! Ask me first! Ask me! Give me a chance!"

Yang Chen watched Liu Zekai shouting in the interrogation room and couldn’t help but chuckle lightly.

Zhao Wende widened his eyes in disbelief at what was happening, gave Yang Chen a thumbs up and said, "Amazing! Truly amazing! Yang Chen, should we take advantage of this and interrogate Liu Zekai now? He’ll confess as soon as we start questioning!"

Yang Chen waved his hand, "It’s not the right time yet; interrogating him now will only make him calm down sooner. We must wait, wait until Liu Zekai completely breaks down; that’s when it will be the best time!"

At this moment, Zhao Wende was already in complete admiration of Yang Chen, and he wouldn’t argue about anything.

Just then, the door was suddenly flung open, and Gu Xijun stormed in.

"Yang Chen!" Gu Xijun charged in, brimming with anger, glaring at Yang Chen, ready to hold him accountable, and seemingly preparing for a big confrontation.

"What’s the matter?" Yang Chen looked at Gu Xijun calmly, motioning with his hand to stop Zhao Wende from intervening.

"What’s the matter? How dare you ask me that!" Gu Xijun stood in front of Yang Chen, glaring at him, and said, "I was the one who brought these two people back. What right do you have to interrogate the people I captured?"

Yang Chen looked at Gu Xijun calmly and asked coldly, "Then what right did you have to bring them back? Is this case under your responsibility? What evidence do you have? Do you realize that by doing this, you’ve already alerted the enemy?"

Gu Xijun retorted angrily, "I wouldn’t capture someone without evidence, right?

"Then show me the evidence. I’d like to see exactly how Liu Chengpeng and his son killed Wei Qingzhong!" Yang Chen stared at Gu Xijun and said.

"I..." Gu Xijun was at a loss for words.

"So, you’re essentially gambling, gambling that you’ll get them to confess!" Yang Chen said.

Gu Xijun pouted, unable to argue.

"Do you know you only have half a day’s time? By tomorrow when their lawyer arrives, you’ll need to present other evidence to continue holding them. However, their lawyer will inform them of the evidence you provided, and from that moment on, they won’t be afraid of anything and won’t say anything. No matter how you interrogate, once the time is up, you’ll have to release them!" Yang Chen said sternly.

"What if..." Gu Xijun wanted to defend herself.

"No what-ifs!" Yang Chen said sternly, "In criminal cases, can you take a ’what-if’ attitude? Can you convict someone based on ’what-if’? Can you be like Cao Cao, rather kill wrongly than let one go? This is a society governed by law! Everything must be based on evidence, not a bit of wishful thinking!"

At this, Gu Xijun was left speechless, her head down like a student who had made a mistake.

Zhao Wende couldn’t help but give Yang Chen a thumbs up; this was the first time Gu Xijun had been reprimanded into silence.

The other staff members were also shocked, secretly praising that someone could finally keep Gu Xijun in check.

"Now, weren’t you able to extract a confession?" Gu Xijun mumbled softly, her head down and pouting.

Yang Chen laughed coldly and said, "I was deceiving you just now to break down Liu Zekai’s psychological defenses."

"What?" Gu Xijun widened her eyes, looking at Yang Chen in disbelief.

She couldn’t imagine being tricked by Yang Chen!

But she looked towards the interrogation room at Liu Zekai, who had completely broken down, crying and shouting.

Such an effect... was amazing!

Gu Xijun had worked for hours but didn’t break Liu Zekai’s psychological defense, yet Yang Chen managed to do so in one go?

"Now I’ll give you an opportunity, if successful, this reckless action of yours can be a chance to redeem yourself." Yang Chen said, glancing at Zhao Wende.

Zhao Wende understood immediately, saying, "Yes! You will continue to be responsible for this case, but mainly to assist Yang Chen. Can you do it?"

"I can!" Gu Xijun widened her pretty eyes and said, "Of course I can!"

"Great!" Yang Chen nodded, looking at the surveillance footage of Liu Chengpeng, "Now go interrogate Liu Chengpeng, we’ll start with him."

"What?" Gu Xijun asked in confusion, "Shouldn’t we interrogate Liu Zekai now? In his current state, if we apply pressure, he’ll definitely confess everything!"

Yang Chen shook his head, "No, Liu Zekai is our final trump card. As long as Liu Chengpeng doesn’t speak, we absolutely can’t move him first!"

"But..." Gu Xijun thought they should still start with Liu Zekai.

Yang Chen motioned her to stop, asked Zhao Wende for an earpiece, and handed it to Gu Xijun, "Follow my instructions."

"Alright!" Gu Xijun took the earpiece, looking at Yang Chen, waiting.

"Go ahead!" Yang Chen urged as he saw Gu Xijun standing still.

"What?" Gu Xijun said, "Is there nothing else to instruct?"

Yang Chen, a bit helpless, said to Gu Xijun, "Interrogation isn’t like delivering a lecture; it has no set formula. It depends on the suspect’s behavior and psychological changes. You go in first and follow my lead!"

"Oh, okay!" Gu Xijun nodded repeatedly, took her things, and hurried out.

As Gu Xijun exited, Zhao Wende immediately said excitedly, "Yang Chen! You’re incredible!"

Yang Chen smiled slightly.

Zhao Wende said, "You have no idea, Gu Xijun is notorious in our precinct; no one can control her! She never listens to even my words. But who would’ve thought, she got silenced by you as soon as you arrived! Do you have any arrangement plans now? If not, I can use some influence to get you transferred to Beicheng as a deputy team leader. How about it?"

Originally, Yang Chen thought Zhao Wende was about to say something serious, but then came this suggestion, making Yang Chen break out in a cold sweat.

He definitely didn’t want to work with this tigress, waving his hand repeatedly, "No, no, no! Not interested."

"Alright then!" Zhao Wende looked regretful.

"Switch all footage to focus on Liu Chengpeng!" Yang Chen noticed that Gu Xijun was already in position.

As soon as the door opened, Yang Chen immediately picked up the microphone and spoke to Gu Xijun, "Repeat after me."

Gu Xijun paused, waiting.

"You didn’t discuss anything here, right?" Yang Chen said, with Gu Xijun repeating to the two individuals inside.

"No, nothing was said." The two had no idea what was going on.

"Oh! Make sure not to say anything you shouldn’t. Just now, Liu Zekai was already resuscitated. The two of you stand guard and don’t let him commit suicide from fear."

Yang Chen watched the change in Liu Chengpeng’s expression and saw what he was looking for.
