Police officer Chen Shu

Chapter 278 I Want to Report This and Go to the TV Station
Maple Leaf Residential Complex, Building 8, Room 401.

The man captured by Chen Shu was nicknamed "Big Airplane" because of his spiky hairstyle, which was extremely popular twenty years ago. He had a fierce face, was in his forties, and dressed quite smartly. He wore a thick gold chain around his neck and had a tattoo on his wrist that resembled a woman's. He was a typical gangster.

At this moment, he was being controlled by Zhu Chaoran and Xiao Qiang, one on each side, and was sitting on the bed in the master bedroom.

Chen Shu sat opposite him, fiddling with the iPhone that had been taken from his body.

"Old Xi has already confessed everything, there's no use in you stubbornly resisting."

The big plane spat and cursed, "Coward!" Then he laughed: "What does he know! He's just a skinner and a stitcher, what could he possibly know?"

Apple phones have extremely high security features; without the owner's cooperation, the police have absolutely no way to get them to work.

The large aircraft remained silent for a long time, but unable to withstand the pressure, it stubbornly said, "I don't know what this is. I don't know anything."

After pondering for a long time, Chen Shu gestured for Zhu Chaoran and Xiao Qiang to leave the room.

When only Chen Shu and Da Feiji were left in the room, Da Feiji became even more unrestrained.

"Officer, I advise you not to waste your time. Now that you've arrested me, do whatever you want with me, I won't say a word. Besides, I have AIDS, I might die any day now, what's there to be afraid of! Oh, right, with all these diseases, you might not even be able to lock me up. Hehe."

All those sent to detention undergo a medical examination; those who fail the medical examination will not be detained.

Big Plane smiled throughout as he talked about these flowers. It wasn't a fake smile, nor the smile of someone caught by the police, but a nonchalant one. Old O-worm Big Plane wasn't afraid of death at all. He had been completely corrupted by O, and the only thing that could terrify him now was having his source of O cut off. Apart from that, he had no fear.

Clearly, he knew he had no way out; he was doomed either way.

This is a dead person who is not yet dead.

Chen Shu got up and went out to let Zhu Chaoran and Xiao Qiang come in to check on the people. Then he pulled Xu Chaofan, who had been waiting outside, to a corner to talk.

"Chen Shu, how is it?" Xu Chaofan's eyes lit up as he looked at Chen Shu as if he were looking at a money-giving boy.

This guy has brought him quite a few surprises in the past six months, such as the reservoir murder case and the EME K case, all of which are high-profile cases! It is also thanks to him that Dongming's branch has made a name for itself and deservedly won the second place in the branch's grassroots business.

Chen Shu gestured with his chin toward the scattered utensils on the ground: "A few months ago, the water and electricity usage here was ridiculously high. Look at the ground, but it's all been moved now."

Xu Chaofan nodded; he could see all of this. In fact, in his opinion, the case could be closed now, and the rest could be left to the Anti-Op Squad of the branch bureau to worry about.

But that doesn't stop Chen Shu, this BUG-level crime-solving genius, from being here. His colleagues at the Municipal Bureau said that this guy with cheat codes was able to help the local police solve a major murder case while on vacation in Luya last week.

Right now, there's a real possibility that another major drug manufacturing case will be cracked, the kind that makes headlines in newspapers and on television.

Xu Chaofan wiped the drool from his mouth: "Chen Shu, stop explaining. Just tell me what to do next!"

Chen Shu pointed to the inner room where the large plane was staying and said, "Just take care of him. Brother Xu, why don't you give it a try?"

Blinded by the news reports and television coverage, Xu Chaofan nodded hastily: "Yes, I'll give it a try!"

Fourth floor corridor
Li Yunqi, who had been waiting at the door, ran over excitedly when Chen Shu finally appeared and greeted him warmly.

Chen Shule said, "Why aren't you leaving yet? What are you doing here? Waiting for a late-night snack?" Because of Li Yunqi's cooperation, he followed his promise and immediately transferred 1,000 yuan to the other party as a tip fee, letting him leave.

Li Yunqi, who had recently lost his job, rubbed his hands together and said somewhat embarrassedly, "Officer, I think the people next door are also doing that kind of thing. I was wondering if there's anything I can help you with."

After speaking, he lowered his head, bent over, and stood obediently to the side, waiting for a reply.

Oh! So you've got your eye on espionage!
Chen Shu thought for a moment, then slowly nodded: "Then you can wait inside. I'll let you know if I need anything."

On the other hand, starting with those who have already been arrested and tracing back to the source through special agents is also a common practice in investigating this type of case.

Now that he had tasted the benefits and was considering cooperating, Chen Shu readily agreed and took him in.

The master bedroom in room 402, which Lao Xi rents.

Chen Shu gestured for the auxiliary police officer to leave. After he left, he took out the large airplane phone and threw it in front of Lao Xi: "Do you know the password?"

Old Xi glanced at his phone, closed his eyes, and neither said he knew nor he didn't.

Chen Shu laughed and said, "I heard from Big Airplane that you're just a delivery boy who earns a little pocket money?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lao Xi suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Chen Shu.

This is a deal, and it's also a gamble.

Chen Shu said carefully, "I've been to the factory next door, and you know what's going on. Now I want to shut down this factory. If it succeeds, you'll just be a lowly errand boy, or at worst, you'll be charged with illegal possession. If the person runs away, then all this stuff, including all the harmful things next door, will be dumped on your shoulders."

"There's nothing we can do. The police have to handle cases, right? By the way, you were arrested last night, and it'll be almost twenty hours before you're sent to the detention center. Well, the big plane should be taking you there tomorrow night, so he can stay here for another day. Hmm, he might just become a messenger then. What do you think? So, you should consider what's more important."

When people's interests are clearly unbalanced, they lose their rationality and make a choice immediately. As long as they believe that non-cooperation is a dead end, and then you give them a way out, like a drowning person seeing anything floating by, they will immediately rush to grab it and hold on tightly.

Even so, the result is still death.

For a seasoned criminal like Lao Xi, who knew he had committed serious crimes, he was well aware that the policeman in front of him was using the outdated prisoner's dilemma. "Confess and receive leniency; resist and receive severe punishment" was all nonsense. He understood these intricacies better than some of the newer officers.

The only things that can convince them are weighing the pros and cons and the facts.

This is an open scheme.

Old Xi said in a rough, hoarse voice, "I'm just a gofer, making a little money by shuffling things around. I don't know anything about what you're talking about."

Chen Shu stared at him silently.

Time ticked by, and Lao Xi coughed twice before suddenly saying, "I definitely don't know the password for the big plane's cell phone, but some people just really like auspicious and easy-to-enter numbers."

Chen Shu gave Lao Xi a deep look, picked up the Apple phone on the table, and tried it with "666666" and "888888". With a "click", the phone was successfully unlocked.
