Chapter 927: Killing the Devil
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
While standing in front of the devil Han Kuan, Zhao Yu scolded loudly, “Han Kuan, your smart brain has ruined your life! All of this is a direct result of your own actions! You thought that your plan was flawless, but in the end, you never even know why you killed those people!”
Zhao Yu continued to scold him coldly, “You loved your wife and didn’t want her to change her mind about you, so you killed her? What crazy logic this that? Your sin is in your heart, and the devil is not your sole reason for killing! Do you think that everything you do in your devil suit is considered justice? From what I see, you are a sad, ridiculous person! What you have done is disgusting!”
“Yes! You are right!” Han Kuan, who had completely collapsed, said with a blank expression. “That’s why I wanted to confess. I shouldn’t even be allowed to live in this world! Death is what a devil like me deserves…”
He then laughed crazily and said, “Ha ha ha ha ha! Maybe… At the beginning, when I was killing Laogua, I still had feelings and cared for others. But, after going to Beiqian, I completely changed! The satisfaction I got from killing made me unable to control myself, so every time I looked for my next target, I rushed into action! Yes, I didn’t even verify the information that I got from others. I was even worse than Li Fei, who was the culprit behind the Headless Female Corpses Case.”
Han Kuan trembled as he added, “I didn’t have time to go over every person’s information, so I ended up killing innocent people! I was wrong. Therefore, I plead guilty… People like me shouldn’t live in this world.”
“You think that you can make up for what you did with your death? You think that it is that easy?” Suddenly, Zhao Yu pointed to the corner of the interrogation room and asked, “Do you know why I covered the monitors with black cloth and turn off all of the cameras?”
Han Kuan shook his head, not knowing the answer. Zhao Yu slowly raised his hands and said with a calm look, “This is the only time in my career that I haven’t set a trap for a bad guy! The evidence that I have just shown you is what we exhausted our efforts to find. It’s all real.”
Zhao Yu then smiled mysteriously as he said, “What you just said to me was not recorded! So, if I say nothing, n.o.body will know! So, you are still innocent at this time! The only charge you will face is waiting for you in Jiangxing County. How about that?”
“No… No…” Han Kuan looked at Zhao Yu, trembling all over, and for the first time, his eyes showed fear.
“Now, I’ll leave the choice to you. You can do as you like,” Zhao Yu said with a laugh. “However, I am kind of hoping that you choose to live! After all, the best way to punish a devil is not to kill him! Instead of pleading guilty, living in guilt and regret would be more painful for you. I really want you to know how it feels when you come home and lie in the bed that once had your wife’s blood in it…”
“You… You…” Han Kuan was stunned. He couldn’t understand why Zhao Yu was doing this.
“Well, I still have a lot of things to do! I don’t want to waste more of my time with you! Bye!” After that, Zhao Yu stood up and walked slowly toward the door.
Han Kuan did not say anything at this time. He felt weak all over, and he had no color left in his cheeks. He looked just like a corpse!
Zhao Yu held the door handle in one hand, then turned back to look at Han Kuan again, sighing softly. The reason why Zhao Yu had covered the monitor screens with black cloth and shut down the cameras was not actually for the reason that he had just said.
In fact, according to his earliest plan, he wanted to use an invisible device in front of Han Kuan’s face! He had prepared a devil suit himself and planned to make himself a devil when Han Kuan refused to confess. In that way, he could frighten Han Kuan in the same way that Han Kuan had frightened others!
However, he did not expect that Han Kuan would confess so easily. So, Zhao Yu thought that he’d better not do it, just in case Han Kuan was mentally stimulated again.
During the interrogation, the policemen at the Golden City Police Station and Wu Xiumin were anxious. No one knew how the interrogation went or whether or not Han Kuan had confessed. Therefore, as soon as Zhao Yu came out of the interrogation room, they immediately surrounded him.
Wu Xiumin was more anxious than anyone else, so was the first to ask Zhao Yu, “Leader, how did it go?”
Zhao Yu pointed to the interrogation room and said, clearly tired, “Xiumin. It’s over. Please just finish the rest using standard procedures. And… You can take this stuff back! I’ve done my best!”
“Um… This… Alright!” Wu Xiumin was disappointed to hear Zhao Yu’s reply, but she immediately went into the interrogation room with a few policemen to do as she had been ordered.
Zhao Yu took advantage of this break to hurry and get back to his flight and get his crutch. Unexpectedly, just when he came to the hall of the detention center building, he suddenly saw the pilot waiting for him with his crutch!
“Oh, thank you…” Zhao Yu stepped forward and took the crutch, then hobbled toward the door.
The pilot was really confused as to how Zhao Yu could be walking normally without the crutch, but suddenly had a limp with it! He thought… How amazing this crutch must be!
Zhao Yu came outdoors using his crutch. When he saw that n.o.body around, he sat down on the steps beside a flower bed to rest.
The air in Golden City was fresh and cool. Zhao Yu felt very comfortable as he sat in the bright suns.h.i.+ne. He looked up and enjoyed the warm light, then took a deep breath.
After that, he enjoyed a moment of quiet. A few minutes later, he opened his backpack and took out Captain Jin’s yellow notebook. Then, he took out his pen, and ticked off the box marked “Beiqian Devil Case.”
It was really hard to imagine how much effort Zhao Yu had put in just to be able to tick this off. Finally, another unsolved case had been cracked!
Zhao Yu looked through the notebook. Now, only two of the five major unsolved cases remained. One was the Huayun Mountain Ma.s.sacre Case, and the other was the Ziliu Town Rural Cooperatives Homicide Case.
And… New Year’s Day was just around the corner. Thinking of this, Zhao Yu touched the text on the notebook and gently said to himself, “Which one should I start with after the New Year Festival?”
As Zhao Yu was thinking about this, he saw a police car rus.h.i.+ng in from the entrance of the detention center. The car came straight to the detention center building and stopped directly in front of Zhao Yu.
When the car door opened, Miao Ying, Ran Tao, Zeng Ke and Cui Lizhu all jumped out of the car quickly and ran madly toward Zhao Yu.
“Boss… Boss…” Cui Lizhu was the fastest and the first one to speak. She asked, “How is the case going? Did he confess?”
“Well…” While he was looking at his eager team members, Zhao Yu reached into his pocket and was going to tell them everything. But, before he could say anything, Ba Chen rushed out of the door and said loudly, “Officer Zhao! Come on! Han Kuan pleaded guilty.”
When Miao Ying and the others heard this, they could not wait for Zhao Yu to say anything, but all rushed to the interrogation room. At this time, Zhao Yu took out his mobile phone from his pocket.
It turned out that he had lied to Han Kuan! Zhao Yu had recorded all of what he had said with his phone’s recording device!
Hearing that Han Kuan had finally confessed, Zhao Yu sighed. The devil murderer was clearly desperate.
At the same time that Han Kuan confessed, a roar came from a prison cell in Yaoming City in the Tongjiang Province. Jiang Ke hit the wall with his fist fiercely. Because he had used a great amount of force, a b.l.o.o.d.y fist shape was left on the wall!
“Zhao Yu…” the man shouted angrily, “I’ll make you pay for this! My man won’t just die for nothing.”
