Chapter 32: Zhao Shijing Comes to Help

Just as Liu Hui was firming his target and envisioning the future, the door to Cell No. 7 swung open.

"Fei Ge, quickly release Liu Hui. We need to take him away," came the voice of Police Officer Xiao Liang from outside the door.

"Mr. Liu, you can go now. Congratulations!" Fei Ge congratulated Liu Hui with a respectful bow, and his subordinates followed suit, extending their congratulations.

Thud!

Liu Hui looked towards the door and saw Officer Xiao Liang and Officer Xiao Xia staring at them in shock, even dropping the keys they were holding without a care.

Liu Hui walked over to them and greeted, "Officers, aren't you leaving?"

Seeing Fei Ge and the others showing such respect to Liu Hui, Officer Xiao Liang couldn't help but question, "Fei Ge, why are you being so polite to this kid Liu Hui? It's not like you, is it?"

Fei Ge's face changed when he heard the question from the respectful Fei Ge. He looked at Officer Xiao Liang with a cold gaze and asked, "What's wrong? Officer Liang, do you have any objections to how I handle things?"

Officer Xiao Liang shivered, feeling as if he was being entangled by a venomous snake and about to be swallowed whole.

He couldn't help but curse inwardly, forgetting how terrifying Fei Ge was due to his exceptional respect for Liu Hui.

Not long ago, a police officer, thinking that all the prisoners should obey their commands, had the audacity to try and teach Fei Ge a lesson.

The result was that Fei Ge disabled his legs, threw him outside Cell No. 7, and left him lying on the ground in agonizing pain.

He had to wait until other police officers noticed something was amiss before they took him to the hospital, but his legs were completely crippled, and he became disabled.

What surprised everyone was that Fei Ge crippled a police officer without any trouble and continued to live comfortably as the boss of Cell No. 7.

At this moment, Officer Xiao Xia stepped forward to mediate the situation, trying to ease the awkwardness. "Fei Ge, Officer Liang just spoke without thinking. Don't take it to heart. We have something to do with Liu Hui, so we'll leave first."

When Liu Hui entered the interrogation room, he was pleasantly surprised to find Tang Sufei and Zhao Shijing chatting absentmindedly in their seats, with an anxious expression on their faces.

Zhao Shijing was mature and beautiful, while Tang Sufei was youthful and stunning. The two of them were like two beautiful sceneries, each with their own charm.

Zhao Shijing, being slightly older, had a more mature mindset, comforting Tang Sufei like an elder sister would.

Overjoyed, Liu Hui quickly walked up to the two women and exclaimed, "Shijing sister, Sufei, when did you both arrive?"

Upon seeing Liu Hui's figure, Tang Sufei rushed into his arms and burst into loud sobs. Zhao Shijing, who had already taken a step forward, retracted her steps upon seeing Tang Sufei in Liu Hui's embrace.

Liu Hui patted Tang Sufei's shoulder and said with delight, "Alright, Sufei, it hasn't been that long since we last saw each other, and now you've turned into a crying cat. Shijing sister is here too, we can't let her laugh at us."

"You brat, all you know is bad-mouthing me. You haven't called me in so long. It wasn't until something happened that Sufei called me for help!" Zhao Shijing, hearing Liu Hui's teasing, couldn't help but reproach him.

Unaware of Zhao Shijing's fleeting disappointment as she observed the intimacy between him and Tang Sufei, Liu Hui quickly apologized to Zhao Shijing, explaining extensively in an attempt to earn her forgiveness.

Not to mention the conversation between Liu Hui and the two women, Xiao Liang and Xiao Xia took Liu Hui to the interrogation room and then went to Captain Qian's office.

Seeing them, Captain Qian, full of confidence, said, "You're here. So, how is it? Liu Hui should have admitted his guilt and is suffering now, right?"

Xiao Liang and Xiao Xia's faces turned strange upon hearing this, hesitating to challenge their leader's judgment.

Captain Qian was astute and immediately sensed that something unexpected had happened when both of his subordinates remained silent.

Realizing this, Captain Qian's face changed dramatically, and he asked loudly, "What exactly happened? Why didn't Fei Ge lay a hand on Liu Hui?"

Xiao Liang, still frightened by Fei Ge's murderous intent, remained speechless under his shadow.

Xiao Xia, feeling helpless, had to answer Captain Qian's question, "Captain, you didn't witness the situation at that time! Fei Ge treated Liu Hui with utmost respect, as if he were venerating an ancestor. There's no way he would make Liu Hui suffer!"

Captain Qian's expression became grim. This completely shattered his plan. Now that Zhao Shijing, the chairwoman of the largest jewelry store in Chushi, Everlasting Fate, had come to the police station to pressure him, if Liu Hui had already confessed, it would have been easy to find an excuse to dismiss her. But with no progress in the interrogation, he truly didn't know what to do.

After contemplating for a while, Captain Qian instructed Xiao Xia and Xiao Liang to wait outside the door while he sought guidance from Deputy Director Yuan Jin of the Chushi Public Security Bureau.

Captain Qian dialed the number and respectfully spoke into the phone, "Deputy Director Yuan, hello! I have something to consult with you."

Subsequently, Captain Qian meticulously explained the ins and outs of the situation to Deputy Director Yuan, waiting for his instructions.

This whole matter was initially caused by Deputy Director Yuan's nephew, Wu Bo. There was no way he could bear the pressure alone.

Now, Captain Qian was looking to see Deputy Director Yuan's attitude. As long as he had instructions, in case any problems arose, Captain Qian could shift the blame onto Deputy Director Yuan.

"Xiao Qian! You've been a veteran police officer for so long, and now a mere high school student has stumped you. Why do you need to ask me how to handle such a trivial matter? So what if Zhao Shijing is Chushi's major taxpayer? She has no authority to interfere with our investigation. We police handle cases according to the law. If Liu Hui has committed a crime, even if the mayor comes, I will back you up. Go ahead and do your job!" Deputy Director Yuan spoke in vague terms, maintaining an official tone without giving a clear order.

However, Captain Qian, being experienced in the political arena, knew that his superior wanted him to find any means necessary to charge Liu Hui with a crime, effectively relieving the pressure brought by Zhao Shijing.

Although Deputy Director Yuan wasn't physically present, Captain Qian still raised his hand respectfully towards the phone, not daring to show any disrespect.

"Understood, Director! I have grasped your intention. I will now interrogate Liu Hui and strive to resolve the situation completely tonight."

With clear instructions from the deputy director, Captain Qian personally led Xiao Xia and Xiao Liang to the interrogation room to question Liu Hui.

"Captain Qian, what do you mean by this? It's already been confirmed that Xiao Hui is innocent. What are you trying to do?" Zhao Shijing reached out and blocked Liu Hui, angrily questioning.
