Chapter 780: You Still Have a Backup Plan, Right?
The couple were locked in two separate interrogation rooms at the police station.
At the beginning, they were extremely arrogant. “What right do you have to arrest us? We are the victims. Did you take money from the culprit?”
“Release us immediately. We are innocent. We are the victims.”
“Victims?” A policeman took the doc.u.ments and entered the interrogation room. He sat down in front of the woman. “If I were you, I would immediately take back those words and cut my own tongue.”
“What law did we break?”
“What law did you break? Don’t you know? What did you do on November 27th last year? Do you need us to recall it for you?” The policeman tapped his fingers on the table and asked.
“Last year…” the woman muttered to herself. Then, she suddenly came to her senses. “This…”
“It seems like you remember it. Very good… Jin, from the prison, has already confessed to your transaction. It’s useless for you to deny it. This is only one of your crimes… Now, Let’s count your second crime, an intentional homicide.”
Hearing the words intentional homicide, the woman immediately denied, “There’s no such thing. I didn’t kill anyone.”
“Is that so?” The police interrogator had printed a few key shots from the surveillance footage into pictures and held them up for the woman to see. “These pictures have been magnified multiple times and are in high definition without any code. What were you doing when you crossed the road? Tell me?”
The woman turned her head, not daring to look at the pictures at all.
“Let me tell you then. You pushed your niece because you knew whose car she would crash into. The police pulled up the surveillance footage for the past ten days and found that you had been waiting at that particular section of the road. Was it because they had money and you wanted to extort from them?”
The woman lowered her head and did not dare to speak. Her palms and forehead were full of cold sweat.
“It’s fine if you don’t confess. After all, the police have already found the cash that you obtained in your house. The evidence and witnesses are all available. The fact that you intended to murder your niece cannot be denied. Your husband has already confessed. When the court decides the sentence, they will be lenient. As for you… Just keep silent and don’t say a word until you die.”
After saying that, the interrogator stood up from his seat as though he didn’t care about this woman’s confession.
Because the final result was the same.
But this woman was afraid…
Especially after hearing that her husband had confessed, this woman was even more terrified.
In the end, she could only say, “Officer, I’ll confess… I’ll confess to everything.”
A woman’s mentality was naturally more fragile than a man’s, and it was easy to break through. The man next door had actually yet to break. But it didn’t matter. As long as one side confessed, everything would be fine.
However, this interrogation lasted until 11 o’clock in the night.
The police gained a lot of information, and they went out to arrest the person who paid for the murder overnight.
..
“Xiao Xiao, do you think the police can trace everything back to Sheng Kai?”
On the way back to the Banyan Courtyard, Mu Qiqi asked Sheng Xiao.
Sheng Xiao shook his head and said with certainty, “Of course not. The person behind Sheng Kai is not someone that he knows how to handle. All he needs to do is find someone to take the blame. Just take it as him having a grudge against Huang Yao and the Sheng family, and everything will be as it was.”
“The Sheng family has caused such a big incident and Sheng Kai’s just going to sit and watch?”
“Not necessarily,” Sheng Xiao said, evidently hiding some deeper meaning behind his words.
The person behind Sheng Kai was indeed cautious and did not drop a single piece of evidence. He had arranged this matter into a complete circle. His hands were clean. However, don’t forget about Bai Xinyi’s case. Since he had made the Sheng family unhappy, he had to show them that he was not someone to be trifled with.
“Do you have any other tricks up your sleeve?”
“No. We can only let the lawyer handle the rest.” Sheng Xiao would not tell Mu Qiqi about the operation he had planned with Tang Yan because it was too dangerous.
Mu Qiqi obediently did not pursue the matter.
“We’ve already done what we can. Now, it’s up to the lawyer to make his move. This couple has been arrested. I’ve fulfilled my promise to Grandpa and allowed him to reunite with Xiao Jiayu.”
Although the couple had been arrested, the child was still in critical condition and had to stay in the hospital. However, her grandparents could be seen by her side.
..
The next day, the police arrived at Huang Yao.
Ren Yufei was very nervous when she saw the police, but Sheng Bowen laughed at her. “Don’t worry, they’re not here to arrest me.”
“You really…”
“Invite them in and then arrange for tea.”
The police wanted to come to Huang Yao because they found out from the couple that the mastermind behind the accident was one of the managers who had been fired from Huang Yao in the past. He had been holding a grudge against Sheng Bowen, so he had planned such an incident. Their goal was to send Sheng Bowen to prison.
“President Sheng, the police have already investigated all the facts and will release the whole story of the case as soon as possible to clear your name. However, you will still have to face an investigation for the escape.”
“I understand.” Sheng Bowen nodded. Regardless of whether the couple framed him or not, he had hurt the child after all. Moreover, so many people had seen him drive away. It was not something that he could clarify with just a few words.
“What a crazy couple.”
“I will accept your investigation at any time,” Sheng Bowen said frankly.
“In that case, our mission is complete.”
“Thank you for your hard work!” Sheng Bowen stood up and shook hands with the policemen.
After that meeting, the police released the whole story of the case, ready to answer the public’s questions about why they took the couple away last night.
According to the police’s report of the case, the whole thing was a scheme instigated by the couple. On the one hand, they wanted to blackmail Huang Yao, and on the other hand, they wanted to get rid of the burden that was the child.
Last night, when they were interviewed, they were still so confident.
But in the end?
“I even shed tears for this woman. I thought she was strong. I didn’t expect her to be such a disgusting human. She’s really something.”
“I finally figured it out. The child has leukemia, so the couple tried every means to kill the child and then tried to extort a sum of money. What a plan!”
“I didn’t expect there to be such a vicious person in this world. This has really opened our eyes!”
“d.a.m.n, the president of Huang Yao must have had eight lifetimes of bad luck to be targeted by the couple and they even succeeded in their scheme.”
“Now I suddenly feel that the president of Huang Yao is quite pitiful…”
