Hmph!

Wu Congwen let out a cold snort and sneered, "What's your name?"

"Dare to tell me your name?"

Lu Chuan couldn't help but smile slightly, just as Qin Yong had said.

The first question Wu Congwen asked was to find out Lu Chuan's name.

"Wu Congwen, remember me. The person who caught you is named Lu Chuan. Lu from mainland, Chuan from mountains and rivers."

"I am a detective from the Criminal Investigation Team of Haizhou City. When you reach Yama Hall, tell King Yama who caught you."

Lu Chuan never intended to hide his name.

So what if he told him?

As a detective, why should he be afraid of a death row inmate?

Wu Congwen obviously didn't expect Lu Chuan to be so straightforward.

He thought Lu Chuan would not dare to tell him his name.

He had already thought of the taunts he'd use next.

If you're too cowardly to even tell me your name, with your kind of cowardice, if I hadn't broken my leg back then, I could beat ten of you and the like.

Or, if you don't say it, are you afraid of me seeking revenge?

Unexpectedly, Lu Chuan came right out and said it.

Hmph!

Snorting coldly again, Wu Congwen moved his injured left hand: "If it wasn't for that police officer in front of you back then, my bullet would have hit you!"

"You should thank him," Lu Chuan shook his head, "If he hadn't been in front of me, you wouldn't have had a chance to fire."

Hmph!

"If we were to do it again, you wouldn't necessarily catch me!"

This sentence... Li Donglin had already told him about it.

Lu Chuan had never interrogated suspects, so he was not familiar with the rhetoric or tactics.

But what he did know was that the reason Wu Congwen was so arrogant and refused to confess was simply because he felt he had nothing to worry about.

The mastermind behind the scenes was well hidden, with no apparent connection to Wu Congwen at all.

His wife and children were all abroad.

As long as he didn't say anything, the people behind him would definitely ensure his family's well-being.

Therefore, the way to break through Wu Congwen's defenses was through his family concerns.

"Wu Congwen, you won't get another chance."

"You..."

"There's no need to be resentful. I know you plan to stay silent unto death, and that even seeing me won't make you speak, right?"

"Heh, as long as you know."

Lu Chuan shook his head: "Wu Congwen, actually, you don't know, I'm not a frontline detective. In the Criminal Investigation Team, I just do technical work like fingerprint matching or DNA testing."

"So, I actually don't know how to interrogate you."

Lu Chuan picked up the interrogation record on the desk: "I don't even know how to fill this out."

"Hmm?"

Wu Congwen had a look of surprise in his eyes.

He hadn't expected that Lu Chuan wasn't a frontline officer.

But... then how was he able to catch him?

A single shot hit his wrist...

From a dozen meters away, a 9mm bullet...

Hitting the wrist, was that a lucky shot?

"So," Lu Chuan suddenly stood up, walked to the desk, and pointed to the video recorder behind him, "I'm meeting you at the request of my superiors."

"Not to interrogate you."

"So what?"

What?

"I'm not interrogating, these cameras aren't on, do you understand what I mean?"

Wu Congwen nodded in confusion: "I understand, you're going to use torture on me?"

Ugh...

At this moment, Lu Chuan wanted to look in the mirror. Did he really look like such a villain?

"Wu Congwen, torturing a suspect is illegal."

"What I want to tell you is, my name is Lu Chuan. Have you heard of the Qiangsheng Group?"

Wu Congwen silently nodded. Having lived in Haizhou for many years, he naturally knew the name of the Qiangsheng Group.

"Good that you've heard of it. My surname is Lu."

"Ugh... Is your family the Qiangsheng Group?"

Wu Congwen may be a criminal, but he's not stupid.

"But... why are you telling me this?"

"Your wife and son are in Australia, right?"

"I've seen your file. You divorced seven years ago, and they went abroad six years ago."

"Through official channels, we police can't bring them back, so you think you have nothing to worry about..."

"But, take a guess, if the Qiangsheng Group steps in... could they find them?"

"You... are threatening me?"

Wu Congwen's expression changed dramatically, hysterically: "No, no! You're a cop, you can't do this!"

"Plus, without my call, it's impossible for them to come back!"

"Threatening you? Not coming back? If I offer your wife a decent job and arrange a million-a-year job for your child, do you think that's a threat, do you think they wouldn't come back?"

"And, Wu Congwen, do you really believe that after your death, the people behind you will fulfill their promises and ensure your wife and children have a good life?"

A million a year...

Qiangsheng Group...

The people behind him...

Wu Congwen knew that if Lu Chuan's Lu was truly the Lu of the Qiangsheng Group, accomplishing this would be easy.

"Think about it, do you want to continue to hold out or find a real future for your wife and child."

Clapping his hands, Lu Chuan turned and left.

"Wait!"

Just as Lu Chuan opened the interrogation room door, Wu Congwen called out loudly, "Can you guarantee what you just said?"

"Wu Congwen, no one can guarantee you anything. Your choice is to believe in my character or that of the ones behind you."

Bang.

The door closed.

Not only did Lu Chuan leave, but so did Wu Congwen's resolve.

Next door, Li Donglin and Qin Yong watched the entire interaction between Lu Chuan and Wu Congwen.

Lu Chuan truly wasn't there to interrogate, so the cameras next to the interrogation desk were indeed off.

But the surveillance in the corner was on the whole time.

Li Donglin silently touched his chin, looking somewhat impressed at Qin Yong: "Lu... really hasn't interrogated a prisoner before?"

Qin Yong smiled bitterly: "Really no, this was Lu Chuan's first time stepping into an interrogation room."

"If that's the case... Lu's ability in interrogation... is outstanding indeed."

Outstanding?

Qin Yong shook his head bitterly. This was not outstanding interrogation ability; it should be called the power of wealth.

A million-a-year salary...

If I resigned, could I ask Lu Chuan to arrange something for me?

Doesn't have to be a million, even fifty will do, if not, thirty is fine too.

After Lu Chuan left, Wu Congwen stared blankly at the interrogation room door.

A million-a-year salary...

He had killed so many people, and it was just enough to send his wife and child abroad.

The life he once thought unattainable, maybe could be possible for his son.

If one could live a steady life, who would want to be a pawn?

As for trusting Lu Chuan or the people behind him...

Wu Congwen was no fool.

"Government! I'll confess, I'll confess to everything!"

In the Crime Scene Investigation office, Shen Yan was waiting for Lu Chuan to return.

After New Year's, Shen Yan had taken a few days off and went with her parents back to her father's hometown.

She returned today.

"Shen, have a seat, the suspect we just caught isn't confessing to anything and said he wants to see the person who caught him, so Lu went to the interrogation room. It's been... half an hour now, he should be back soon."

Liu Guodong poured Shen Yan a cup of tea.

"Thank you, Supervisor Liu."

Creak.

The office door opened, and Old Liu turned around: "See, as soon as you mention it, he's back."
