Chapter 335: Control
“But you didn’t expect that there were so many coincidences happening in this case.” Mo Li looked at Zhu Wen and couldn’t help but feel sorry for her.
“Boss, Mo Li! Tao… They’re already ready. The boats are here, we can transport the criminals all back to the station now.”
…
Inside the interrogation room, Tao Si looked at the officer before her without fear. “Officer, what time is it now?”
“It’s 12:30. Why do you have so many questions? The officers are coming to interrogate you soon. Just sit tight.”
“Officer, I’ve been here for a whole morning already. Before the interrogation, can I use the toilet? I still have my rights, right?”
Xiao Liu glared at her. “Fine, but I’ll be coming with you. Don’t think of playing any tricks on me!” Then as Xiao Liu uncuffed Tao Si, he thought about it and said, “Actually, I’ll have a female officer go with you.”
Tao Si stood up and smiled coquettishly at Xiao Liu, “I don’t mind, you can come with me. You can watch all you want.”
After arranging for two female officers to accompany Tao Si, they exited the interrogation room. As they headed to the toilet, they ran across Jiang Zhi and Zhu Wen who had just been arrested.
While they passed, Tao Si leaned to the side and whisper something. Xiao Liu berated her. “No mumbling! Just keep going!”
After Tao Si left, Zhu Wen and Jiang Zhi stopped in their tracks. “Why are you two stopping? Keep on going!” The two policemen were confused. These two women were acting very strangely. It was like they had received some terrible news.
To be fair, Jiang Zhi did feel that way. She felt like the ground was opening up beneath her and she couldn’t move one more step.
Zhu Wen took a deep breath, but her mind was blank. She felt like she had dropped into hell, she needed to escape from this place. Her heart started to race. When she was exposed, she didn’t feel this fearful.
“What’s wrong?” One of the officers noticed how pale Zhu Wen’s face was.
“Arrange and psychiatric evaluation for Jin Xuan. And send these two women into interrogation…”
Suddenly two heartbreaking wails came from outside. Mo Li and Xiao Rui rushed out of the office and were met by Tao Si’s smiling face.
“I’m sorry, Captain Xiao! She said she needed to use the toilet and so I brought her there. But she…”
“What did you tell those two?”
“Hehe, aren’t you supposed to be a genius? Why don’t you guess?” Mo Li narrowed her eyes at Tao Si.?Looks like this organization is more dangerous than I thought.
…
At the Pearl River Hotel, Kerria collapsed on the bed. “Finally I can rest, I’m so tired!” Just as she planned to sleep, her phone rang.
“Hmm?” Kerria picked up her phone and revealed a strange smile. “Brother Wang, why are you in the mood to call me today?”
“Little Kerria! Thank you for the tips! The case was indeed solved in 48 hours. I bet 5 million dollars and I have won 6 times back! This livestream was so exciting. I never thought I would see actual police in action. Little Kerria, you are amazing!”
“Brother Wang, you are too kind. I need to thank you for trusting me. Therefore, I came to you once I heard the news. This is more exciting than me drinking with you, no?”
“Haha. Uncle was too limited in his thinking before. The money will be split as promised. The 20 percent will be for you. But I want to know, what did Xiao Tao say that the crazy woman and transvestite get so mad?”
Kerria turned around in bed and uttered, “Oh, it’s not really anything secretive. All she said was, ‘Qian Yao’s actual surname is Liao and she was only 18’.”
“Hmm? But what does that mean?”
“Brother Wang, how old were you when you had your child?” Kerria was about to say something more when another call came in. “Brother Wang, I’m so sorry but that’s all for now~ I have another call.” Kerria glanced at the new caller. “Tsk… Trouble is calling!”
Just as she accepted the call, the roar came, “Kerria, how dare you accept private bets behind the boss?!”
“It sounds so bad when you put it that way. I’m in the marketing business and scamming people is my job. Furthermore, doesn’t this mean I’ve managed to earn more money for the organization?”
“Then what about the issue of you leaking insider information and manipulating the game?”
“Director Orchid, I did no such thing. I never leaked any insider information and manipulated any game. I am just a staff member, how could I have done those things? Do you think I’m good enough to predict the results?” Kerria smiled. The only ‘insider information’ she had released was to connect with every major client to have them bet on five possible outcomes separately. That way she would have covered all the bases.
