Shi Man put away her whip and sat back in the chair in front of the interrogation room. She took a sip of the tea on the table. “Tell me. If you hide anything, you know the consequences.”
The chauffeur casually wiped the sweat off his forehead and nodded. “I know. The person 1 contacted used a virtual number. I’ve never met him, but 1 can tell that his accent doesn’t sound like a local.”
Shi Man slowly put down her teacup and said calmly, “You mean he’s not from G City?”
“Yes, he’s more like a southerner, but he’s been through voice change during the call. I’m not sure which city he’s from.” The chauffeur lowered his eyes and his eyeballs darted around. He said thoughtfully, “Besides, I think he’s very familiar with the goal of today’s mission.”
Shi Man slammed the table and asked with a straight face, “Why do you say that?”
The chauffeur was shocked by her and trembled. He composed himself and said, “Because he seems to know very well when the target will appear and pass by that intersection. Moreover, his tone when he spoke seems to be especially familiar with the other party.”
At this point, the chauffeur smiled self-deprecatingly. The corners of his lips quickly fell back. “1 know what I said might not be of much value to you. Just think about it. If the person on the phone is not familiar with the other party, why would he pay a high price for me to hit someone?”
“No.” Shi Man shook her head gently. “You don’t have to consider if what you said is useful to me. You just have to tell me everything you know.”
“That’s all I know. What else do you want to know?” The chauffeur narrowed his eyes and stared at her helplessly.
Shi Man crossed her legs and pressed her raised toes down gently. She leaned forward slightly, and her eyes became sharper. “I also want to know why you trusted him so easily and helped someone who refused to reveal any information commit murder in public.”
The chauffeur suddenly clenched his fists on the table, his pupils constricted, and his voice was covered in a layer of frost. “Young lady, it’s not that I don’t want to tell you, but some things are not as simple as you think. I advise you not to interfere.”
Shi Man ignored his seemingly kind warning and looked into his eyes calmly. “He has something on you.”
The chauffeur grabbed the edge in shock. The handcuffs hit the table with a crisp sound. “How did you know? Who told you?”
Shi Man raised her eyebrows in understanding. She suddenly took out her phone and pulled out the information about the chauffeur that Tang Zhe had sent. She roughly read it and nodded slightly. “I know now.”
The chauffeur was stunned for a moment before he suddenly became fierce. “Damn girl, how dare you trick me! Don’t even think about getting any more information from me!”
Shi Man smiled disdainfully and suddenly stood up to walk around him.
The chauffeur looked at the whip in her hand in a daze. Fear flashed across his eyes, and in its place was doubled anger. “Kill me! Kill me if you have the ability! F*ck, if you can’t kill me, I’ll take your life when I get out!”
Shi Man did not take his threat seriously at all. She put down the whip and took out a bag of powder from her pocket. Under the chauffeur’s shocked gaze, she opened his mouth and poured it in.
The man choked on the powder and coughed violently. Just as he was about to spit it out, Shi Man’s hand suddenly pushed his chin up, forcing him to look up.
The powder slid down his saliva into his stomach, and the effect took effect quickly.
The intense heat in his stomach made him fall to the table in convulsion. His eyes were filled with pain, and his fingers turned pale.
“You! What did you feed me?”
The chauffeur covered his red throat and coughed non-stop. However, no matter what, he could not spit out the thing in his stomach.
“Of course, it’s good stuff for you.” Shi Man teased and let go. Looking at the increasingly painful expression on his face, her eyes flashed coldly. “Next time, if that person still contacts you, you have to tell me everything. Otherwise, you should know the consequences.”
The burning pain in his stomach forced him to not even have the strength to speak. The pain of his chest and back being whipped reminded him that Shi Man was ruthless and not someone to be trifled with.
Outside, Chief Zheng came in with the captain. When he saw the driver lying on the table and rolling his eyes, he frowned worriedly and asked, “Is he alright? Do you need to call the doctor over?”
“No need. His life won’t be in danger. It won’t affect Uncle Zheng’s case,” Shi Man replied with a smile and left the interrogation room behind the two of them.
Before returning, Chief Zheng asked a few more questions about the situation in the interrogation room. However, Shi Man was too calm. He could not determine anything from her expression and could only give up..
