Chapter 40: The Peach Blossom Tribulation
I was taken to the county public security bureau in a daze.
was taken away with me, as well as the girl who had never known her life before, calling herself Lin Xue'er.
The attitude of the two officers was very indifferent, and the eyes that looked at me were full of contempt.
The law enforcement process was rigorous, iron-faced and selfless, and my mobile phone was temporarily confiscated as soon as possible according to the regulations.
This cut me off all external communication, and I lost the opportunity to make any last struggles.
Lin Xueer and I were separated for the record.
Male police officers interrogated me, female police officers interrogated girls.
The night was already deep.
In the interrogation room, there was a table, two chairs, and the lights were bright.
The male officer, who still looked energetic, sat at his desk, facing me, and opened the interrogation notebook.
"Say it, tell me honestly! You can only go out after you explain it clearly, understand? ”
"Be lenient in confession, and strict in resisting." , the officer's face was serious, cold as ice.
"Leader, I really don't have anything to explain, I was wronged."
I was on the verge of collapse, feeling like I was being dragged into an invisible conspiracy.
"Don't talk nonsense! What is your relationship with that girl? Let's start with your relationship. ”
"Officer, I don't know her, we really don't have anything to do with each other."
The policeman snorted coldly.
"You kid, you talk upside down, contradict yourself, you were in the hotel just now, didn't you admit it yourself, are you and her a netizen? Why don't you know each other at all now? ”
"Not a netizen." I want to prove my innocence, and I must resist to the end.
"Don't you really know her?"
"I don't know."
"I don't know, how can I live in the same room and take a shower together?"
The police seemed to be annoyed by me, and laughed instead of being angry.
This is a fact, when they rushed into the room, Lin Xue'er and I did seem to be taking a shower together.
"Don't you think it's ridiculous yourself?"
"It's ridiculous, but I don't really know her, and I don't know how she got into my room." I'm telling the truth, and I'm really confused, and I'm inexplicable.
Looking at my innocent look, the police were really angry.
"Comrade of the great country, let me tell you, I have seen a lot like you, don't pretend to be confused for me!"
"I'm quite confused, officer, again, I really don't know her, I don't know how she got to my room, I was in the shower, the girl suddenly rushed in, she went into the bathroom, she didn't wear anything, I was scared, I ran out quickly, nothing happened, you guys came."
"Nothing happened, how do you prove that nothing happened?" The officer stared at me, as if trying to see through the lies hidden in my words.
"Sir, you can go and adjust the surveillance of the hotel, how did she get into my room, I haven't figured it out yet, I won't tell you, before you came, I was about to pick up the phone and call the police."
The male officer chuckled and looked at me in disbelief.
"Call the police?"
"yes, officer, I'm about to call the police."
"What are you calling the police? A thief shouts to catch a thief? Do you break the law yourself, call the police yourself, report yourself? ”
"I called the police because a stranger broke into my room." , his playful look annoyed me, I was really a little anxious, and the tone raised a few decibels.
"You're acting for me, aren't you?" , the policeman stretched his face.
"If you continue like this, it will only increase the punishment and crackdown on you, don't be ignorant of current affairs." His words seemed to be true, and he kept writing something in the notebook as he spoke.
"Leader, I didn't act, I was really wronged", I tried to restore the truth.
"You also said that it wasn't acting, didn't you just say that you are netizens? Why did it take a while for someone to break into your room again? The officer looked at me with some disdain, and it seemed that my words were completely inadmissible.
"I said she was my netizen, in order to simplify things, I thought it would be okay to admit that we were netizens, now netizens come out to open a room, isn't it normal, who wants you to bring me here?" , I muttered in a low voice, what I said was indeed when I was interrogated in the hotel, in the face of the police's own true thoughts, I naively thought that if I admitted that it was a netizen relationship, it would be a big deal to be considered to be inappropriate in life, and it would not be a violation of the law, and I could get out as soon as possible, and I didn't want to be self-defeating.
"Do you believe that you are a netizen relationship?" He stared at me, his voice fierce.
"We are not netizens." , I was reprimanded for being a little embarrassed, and it was not a netizen relationship to tell the truth.
"Say, tell me honestly, what's the relationship?" The policeman looked a little grumpy.
"We don't know each other. Just listen to herself, her name is Lin Xue'er. ”
"Well, yes, go on."
"It's gone."
The officer stood up sharply.
"Don't give me a mill here, I warn you one last time."
I looked at him with an innocent look on his face, and I didn't know which sentence was wrong, which angered him.
"Do you want to say it?!" , his face was full of murder, he came up to me, next to my face, so close that I could even see the weedy hair in his nostrils, and he asked word by word, a little bit of gnashing of teeth.
I didn't dare to squeak, thinking what to say to him in order to calm his unquenchable anger.
"Do you want me to remind you?" He looked at me in fear of him, not like he was pretending, and his demeanor eased.
I nodded, I really needed his prompting, what I needed to explain.
The officer sat back down, leaned back in his chair, lit a cigarette, took a hard puff, squinted at me, and picked up the pen again.
"Tell me, how much money did you give that girl? How do you trade? ”
"I didn't give money, I don't know her, why give her money?" , I looked blindfolded, innocent, pure and flawless, and my appearance was moving.
I knew very well in my heart that he made me admit that there was a deal with the girl, no matter how much money was given, as long as the facts existed, even if I was completely pulled into the abyss of crime.
But I really didn't break the law, and I was indeed wronged.
Although what I said was still the actual situation, because it was very different from the answer he needed, this time it completely angered the male police officer.
He stood up again, slammed the pen on the table, pointed his finger at me, and didn't say a word for a long time, and at last, in a rage, walked out.
I sat in the inquiry room in a daze, thinking about how to get out of the predicament and get out as soon as possible.
At the same time, I am also trying to straighten out my thinking, find the root cause of my own frame-up, and think about who would do such a thing to myself.
"This kind of thing is incredible, it's definitely not a prank!"
"The relationship between me and Dazhi in the county is very simple, and it has always been very low-key, and I have never offended anyone, who will be the mastermind behind this scene?"
Eventually, I filtered through all the people I had been in contact with recently, and I didn't have a clue about it!
It seems that this enemy is indeed quite terrifying.
The purpose of his pulling me into the water also puzzled me.
The urgency of the situation, and the fact that I am about to be imprisoned also makes me very anxious.
The police station seems to have lowered my IQ, and I always feel that my every move, word and deed is completely under the control of the interrogator, and even what I want to say is not up to me.
After a while, the male policeman returned in a hurry.
He tapped his finger at me, still with an angry look on his face.
"You kid is crepe on the surface, but in fact, he is really dishonest."
He sat down, picked up his pen, wrote a bunch of things in his notebook, and looked up again and asked me.
"This is your last chance, I will ask you for the last time, you have to answer my questions honestly and proactively."
"Do you know the iron head in the old county?"
"Iron head? Which iron head? I was confused.
"The iron head in the old county?! Of course I do. I looked at him suspiciously, I didn't know what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd this time, and I didn't know that this ghost thing had something to do with the iron head.
"It's good to know." , he didn't raise his head, and the rustling was recorded.
"That's right." He muttered to himself, and wrote a bunch of words on his notebook.
"Lin Xue'er has already confessed, you found her through the iron head who sold chestnuts at the gate of the old county, and the transaction amount was 10,000 yuan, I didn't wronged you, right?"
His words left me dumbfounded.
"What? What did you say? How can it be? ”
"I don't know Lin Xue'er at all."
"Yes, you don't need to know her." The police officer snapped the notebook shut and glared at me, as if I was the best actor in the world.
He crossed his arms and stared at me.
"What about you, the problem this time was relatively minor, and you could have been released on bail after recording a confession and paying the fine, but in view of your stubborn resistance during the interrogation, it is estimated that you will be detained for more than ten days."
He said coldly.
It was as if someone had poured cold water from head to toe, and even though it was the hot and dry midsummer, I shivered and began to tremble.
"You, what did you say?" I stared at him, hoping his words weren't addressed to me.
"It's nothing, you just wait here."
"I'm going to ask the leader."
He said lightly, then closed the door again and walked out.
The officer's announcement seemed to ignite a fire of anxiety in me, and I couldn't help but turn around in a hurry when I realized that I would be imprisoned in real time, and sweat trickled down my face as I paced around the interrogation room like a trapped beast.
"It seems that this matter is not simple, this is a conspiracy, it is definitely a conspiracy!"
"I was designed."
I tried to calm down and try to go through the whole thing from start to finish again, but my mind was in a state of confusion.
Just like when I was first interrogated, the more I thought about it, the more I couldn't figure it out.
"How so? Who is Lin Xue'er? And by whom was she directed? ”
"Since I returned to the county seat, I have never been in contact with Tietou, how could he be involved in this incident?"
"If it's Lin Xue'er who is looking for the iron head, does he know that the person behind the scenes is targeting me? What is the relationship between Lin Xueer and Tietou? ”
"If I have to be detained for more than ten days this time, I won't be able to leave in the short term, and how can I start business in Beijing?"
"I was in the hotel just now, I should have sent a message to Dazhi, although the information was not fully edited, but the basic meaning should be quite clear, it's so late, he shouldn't have received my message for help, right?"
In an instant, I felt a little abrupt, I was in a mess and didn't figure out anything.
"Although the message was sent, I didn't make it clear what happened to me."
"That's worse, even if Dazhi sees my message, he definitely doesn't know where to look for me right now."
"If Dazhi doesn't know why he rescued me, how can he know how to save me?"
I kind of regret my recklessness and irrational way of sending distress messages.
In this case, even if Dazhi received my message and knew that I was in deep danger, he could only be in a hurry.
"Although I was framed, once the current accusation of planting is spread, my reputation will be completely ruined."
"It seems that the mastermind behind this incident just wants me to be ruined?!"
"Who would have such hatred for me?"
I suddenly remembered Ah Hong.
"Could it be Ah Hong?"
"So far, Ah Hong is the only person who has publicly declared her opposition to me."
"It stands to reason that Ah Hong is also the only one who has a reason to do this, but she, a woman, shouldn't use this way to deal with me, right?"
While I was in the interrogation room's cabin, like ants on a hot pan, the male officer returned.
He had a serious expression and stared at me.
"You're in luck!"
"I just reported your situation to the leader, what the leader means, in view of the fact that the circumstances of your crime are relatively minor, and the final deal has not yet been reached, it has been decided not to detain you, and the punishment for you is relatively lenient, just notify your family to come over and pay the fine tomorrow."
"It's too late today, you have to spend the night in the interrogation room, and by the way, reflect on it."
The officer was right, the interrogations that came and went, tossed for so long, it was already more than 3 o'clock in the morning.
I was relieved by his words.
"Whether you sleep or not is secondary, it doesn't matter if you are wronged or not, the key is to regain your freedom!"
"Thank you for the magnanimity of the leaders!"
What a big thing to be free!
Once a person loses his freedom, all his dreams become empty talk.
Hearing the results of my disposition, my excited teeth and claws made the male officer despise me again.
He looked at me with disgust and hurried out.
After a while, I brought my belongings, including my phone, and a blanket for resting.
Throwing something at me, he slammed the door shut, walked out, and never returned.
I snuggled up in a chair in the interrogation room, draped in a blanket, and stayed up all night.
When it was almost dawn, my mind woke up little by little.
Although this unexpected peach-colored incident is very strange, there are still traces to follow.
After thinking about it carefully, many details came to mind one by one, although there were many doubts.
However, in order to find the truth, the only thing that is needed at present is to verify it little by little with time.
In the morning, when the first rays of summer sunlight shone into the interrogation room of the police station, I woke up completely from my half-asleep state, stood up, looked out the window through the railing, and felt that the light was very harsh.
The sky was bright and the sky was completely clear.
I called Dazhi as soon as possible and told him that I had sent the wrong message last night and asked him not to worry.
Then I found a friend in the county and asked for help to help me get the cash fine to the police station.
According to the results of the police's handling, regardless of whether they are guilty or not, if they want to be free, they must pay a fine.
The moment I walked out of the police station, I really felt like a prisoner who had been reborn, and I felt like I had survived the disaster.
However, what I didn't expect was that all this catastrophe was just the beginning.
