"Speak, who sent you?"
"I, I'm really here to steal. No one ordered me to do so!" The thief said with a pained expression.
He didn't expect that he would be so unlucky to be caught stealing something today. Moreover, this person didn't seem to be a good person.
The pale-faced man didn't say anything. Instead, he took out a folding knife and waved it in front of the thief's eyes. The knife shone brightly under the light.
With a snap, it pierced into his thigh.
"Ah!" A scream rang out.
"This is just the beginning. Speak softly, or I'll cut your tongue off."
"Ugh." The thief gritted his teeth, his entire body convulsing in pain.
"Tell me, who sent you here?"
"There's no one here. I heard that there's a lot of cash in the manager's office, so I came over."
"Who said that?"
"I don't know him."
"She took the initiative to tell you?"
"No, I heard them mention it when I was eating in a restaurant," the man said.
"I'm really a thief. You can go to the police station to check. I have a record." The man cried. His thigh was bleeding profusely, and he felt a little dizzy just looking at it. In the past, when he was caught, he would at most be beaten up and sent to the police station. Unlike this person in front of him, he was first imprisoned and then directly used a knife on him.
The pale-faced man didn't say anything. His eyes stared straight at the thief, which made his hair stand on end.
Kacha! The knife pierced into his other thigh.
"Ah!" Another scream rang out.
"Speak the truth."
"I'm telling the truth, I swear!"
"You swore by a thief? Only a ghost would believe that! "
"I didn't lie to you, I really didn't lie to you."
"Sigh, I originally wanted to let you live, but I think it's better to forget about it!"
When the thief heard that, he was dumbfounded. Then, the smell of urine wafted out. He was so scared that he wet his pants. He couldn't take it anymore.
Suddenly, the lights in the basement went out.
Who?!
Gulp.
There was no sound at all.
When the lights came on again, there were a few more people in the enclosed space. There were a few police officers, and the original two people were still there.
There was a knife stuck in the thigh of the tied thief. There was another person lying on the ground, unconscious.
"What's going on?!"
"Let's get the doctor to check on them first."
Soon, the forensic doctor arrived. Both of them were still alive, but unconscious. The one who was tied up had lost a lot of blood, but it wasn't fatal. The one lying on the ground, on the other hand, was seriously injured.
"What caused the coma?"
"It should be something like ether."
"So, there must have been a third person here?"
"Yes."
"Maintain the scene and look for evidence. Send the injured one to the hospital. Handcuff this one first."
"Hey, isn't this the thief?" A policeman pointed at the man tied to the chair.
"You know him?"
"Yes, he's a repeat offender. He's been in there several times. I remember his name is Lv Xiucheng."
"Good name!"
One of them was sent to the hospital while the other was handcuffed and brought to the police station.
Somewhere in Dao City.
"I didn't expect it to be him." Jia Zizai puffed out a smoke ring.
"No one saw you attack, right?"
"No one. I'm wearing a mask. They won't know who I am even if they see me," Jia Zizai said.
"That's good."
"We've eliminated one, but we have to continue!"
In the police station, the handcuffed man woke up. He didn't panic at all. He first looked around to make sure he was in the police station. He began to think about how to deal with the possible interrogation in front of him.
"He's a veteran!" The policeman who saw his series of movements through the surveillance equipment said.
"Well, I just checked his ID. It's fake."
"Fake?"
The policeman asked. "Yes, I've reported it to the leader and applied for help from the higher-ups to further expand the scope of the investigation. Is this person possibly a wanted criminal?"
"Let's interrogate him first."
"Yes," the policeman said.
"Name," the policeman said.
The handcuffed man looked up at the two policemen and didn't give any answer.
"We're asking you a question. Name," the policeman said.
There was still no answer.
"Do you think we can't find out anything about you if you don't answer?" the policeman asked. "You're now suspected of kidnapping and intentional assault. It's impossible for you to get out.
The handcuffed man remained silent. He was very calm. Now he was thinking about who could have attacked him so silently. One must know that he had set up an alarm outside the basement.
The other party was an expert!
The two policemen's first interrogation failed.
"Look at this. Don't let him close his eyes tonight."
"Got it."
A lamp shone on his eyes. He just sat there quietly like a statue.
A few hours had passed, and he was still like that.
"Well, he can endure it," the policeman who was in charge of the case said.
"He's really a veteran!"
"By the way, has his blood sample been taken?"
"Not yet."
"Arrange for someone to take it. Test his DNA and compare it with the database."
"OK, I'll arrange it right away."
When he saw someone coming over to take his blood sample, the pale-faced man's expression changed.
"Look, his face has changed. He must have done something else!"
"Then, we have to hurry up!"
In the hospital, the man who was stabbed was sent to a separate ward by the police for isolation treatment.
"Tell me what happened?"
"Well, I went to the trading company to get something," the man said.
"Is that your family's company?" the policeman asked.
"No, I …" the man said.
"Burglary is theft. You still want to take it? You're really talented! "
"Yes, I went in to steal," the man said.
"What did you steal?"
The policeman asked. "100,000 yuan and a bag of diamonds. I'm not sure, but it looked like it."
"How did you get kidnapped?" the policeman asked.
"I don't know," the policeman said. "I was stealing when the light in the office suddenly turned on. Then, I saw the man. He knocked me out. When I woke up, I found myself tied to a chair in a dark space. He hit me and asked me who sent me to steal."
"Who sent you?" the policeman asked.
"I, I didn't send anyone," the policeman said. "I just went there to get some money to spend."
"How do you know there's money in there?" the policeman asked.
"It's a trading company," the policeman said. "Besides, it's the general manager's office. I've been there for several days. There's no one there at night. There's only an old man guarding the door. There's not even a security guard."
"Go on," the policeman said.
"He stabbed my thigh with a knife, one on each side," the policeman said. "Then, the light suddenly turned off, and I fainted. When I woke up again, I saw the police. You came at the right time!" For the first time, he realized that the policeman was so cute.
"In other words, there should be a third person who knocked you out?"
The policeman asked. "Yes, it should be," the policeman said.
"Think again, is there anything else?" the policeman asked.
"No," the policeman said.
"Well, you recover first," the policeman said. "If you think of anything useful, tell me immediately."
"Oh, I know," the policeman said.
The thief didn't intend to say anything more. The more he spoke, the more likely he would make mistakes, especially when facing these veteran investigators. One sentence could lead to fatal mistakes.
The night passed.
"Sir, there's a major discovery," the policeman said. "Through DNA comparison, this man is likely to be the murderer of last year's massacre in Lan City."
"What?" The policeman in charge of the case was stunned.
"Last year's massacre in Lan City?"
"Yes," the policeman said.
In August of last year, a family in Lancheng had a massacre. All five members of the family were killed, and two bodyguards were killed. One of them died, and the other was seriously injured. There was basically no useful evidence left at the scene except for the blood of the eighth person. It was a big case that caused a sensation. For this reason, the city of Lancheng asked for help from the Ministry of Public Security. Together with experts, they carried out a three-month investigation. However, no trace of the culprit was found, and no suspect was identified. It became an unsolved case. They didn't expect that today in Dao, thousands of miles away, they would coincidentally catch the suspect who was most likely the culprit of the massacre.
"Get in touch with Lan City immediately," the policeman said.
"OK, I'll do it right away," the policeman said.
After hearing the news, the people in Lan City were very shocked. They said they would immediately send people to confirm.
