Sun Dewang and other officers saluted the arriving Xiao Peng.
Xiao Peng nodded, then looked at Zou Huaide, his expression turning stern as he shouted, "Zou Huaide, be honest with me. Stop your little tricks. Don’t think that by pretending to be crazy you can escape the law’s punishment! What does this have to do with Lin Beichen?"
Of course, he didn’t believe what Zou Huaide was saying. Wasn’t this all nonsense?
He thought that the reason Zou Huaide said such things was to make everyone think he was mentally unstable and thus receive a lighter sentence.
The other officers, after a moment of confusion, understood as well, looking at Zou Huaide with eyes filled with disgust and anger, instead of sympathy.
Still trying to be smart!
"Everything I’m saying is true!"
Zou Huaide’s mind was broken, but he wasn’t crazy. He immediately cried out for his innocence.
Sun Chao and the other two quickly chimed in.
"Officer, everything Zou said is true!"
"Yes, you have to believe us!"
They knew that if they didn’t Discover more novels on NovelHub - your gateway to endless stories.
Sun Chao was more straightforward, closing his eyes tightly and sticking out his neck, saying, "I’d rather die than take another step. Just shoot me here if you must!"
Zou Huaide and the other two nodded vigorously, firmly agreeing.
"Yes, we’d rather die here!"
"If you want us to die, give us a quick and dignified death!"
Seeing the four of them .
Xiao Peng and other officers were puzzled, wondering what was going on.
They’d rather die than move forward?
What kind of game were they playing?
But soon, they understood. These four must have agreed in advance that if they were caught, they would collectively pretend to be crazy at the first opportunity, right?
Xiao Peng’s eyes narrowed. These human traffickers were indeed not simple.
He thought that their interrogation needed to begin immediately. The longer it was delayed, the more time they had to prepare.
"We can’t give them such an opportunity!"
Xiao Peng immediately decided to conduct a surprise interrogation, formulating a plan in his mind.
He beckoned to the other officers, sneering, "Take them forward. I’ve lived for decades and I’ve never seen lightning strike someone. Today, I want to witness it, thanks to them!"
The officers controlling Sun Chao and the other three smiled, thinking that Captain Xiao was quite humorous.
They had no worry about any lightning striking them.
Because they didn’t believe it at all.
Sun Chao and the other three struggled desperately as they were forcefully moved forward, but it was all in vain. They were held tightly with no room for resistance.
"Stop, stop right now!!"
"Please, don’t go any further!"
They screamed at the top of their lungs.
As they neared the nightmare-like area, Sun Chao and his companions stopped struggling, closed their eyes in despair, and anxiously awaited their deaths, hating every policeman present.
Not believing them, huh?
Then let’s die together!
The thought of so many officers dying because of them brought them some anticipation.
They suddenly felt themselves stop.
Before they could figure out what was happening.
That irritating voice rang in their ears again.
"Can any of you tell me... where’s this lightning that was supposed to strike you?"
Sun Chao and the others instinctively opened their eyes.
Xiao Peng stood before them with a stern face, a sneering smile on his lips.
And the officers standing next to him...
They were in the charred area!
Twelve charred bodies lay stiff on the ground, surrounded by officers from the forensic and technical departments conducting a detailed investigation of the scene.
Sun Chao and the others felt a sudden chill, their bodies shivering.
They instinctively wanted to flee.
They realized, why run? There was no lightning!
Where was the lightning?
Where was the lightning that was supposed to strike?
Sun Chao and the others looked dumbfounded at the sky, where not even a spark of an electrical arc could be seen among the thin clouds, let alone any lightning.
This lightning was too unreasonable!
Makes it seem like they were completely lying, right?
Seeing their silence.
Xiao Peng snorted coldly, ruthlessly exposing them, "Still dare to say you weren’t lying?! I think you guys saw you were caught by us, so you tried to pin your accomplices’ accidental deaths on Lin Beichen, trying to divert our attention to him as revenge!"
Sun Chao and the others were in tears, not knowing they had such mental processes!
They felt more wronged than Dou E!
Chasing lightning strikes, no one believes them!
Every word they said...
"Even if you want to pin something on Lin Beichen, at least come up with a reasonable story. Saying it’s his trick that caused lightning to chase you... Do you think so little of us? Even if Lin Beichen were here, do you think we would believe this nonsense?"
