60s: I have a store

Chapter 490 Zhao Qiang’s miserable life has just begun

Zhao Qiang was taken into the interrogation room by public security personnel. The strong light made him squint his eyes instantly. After adjusting for a moment, he could see clearly that there were two interrogators with serious expressions sitting opposite him.

The atmosphere in the interrogation room was depressing, and the clock on the wall was ticking, as if urging Zhao Qiang to confess his crime.

The presiding public security officer stared at Zhao Qiang with a sharp gaze and spoke first: "Zhao Qiang, you should know why you were brought here. Now tell me the details of how you tampered with the scientific research data and whether there was anyone behind it."

Zhao Qiang's heart tightened, his eyes dodged, and he stammered, "I... I was just confused for a moment, no one else ordered me to do that."

The interrogator snorted coldly and continued to ask, "A moment of confusion? Such important scientific research data concerns national food security, and you just let it go with a word of confusion? From the moment you came up with this idea, what was your plan step by step? Tell me the truth."

Zhao Qiang swallowed and shook his head pretending to be calm.

He also knew that there was no turning back and he could only continue on.

Zhao Qiangqiang's forehead was covered with beads of sweat. He kept wiping them with his hands and began to speak with a trembling voice: "I... I am just jealous of Zhou Yimin and others. When I see them achieve results and be praised by everyone, I feel unbalanced.

I first wanted to find an opportunity to secretly tamper with the data, so that night when everyone was asleep, I went to the place where the data was stored..."

The interrogator snorted coldly and said, "We now suspect that you are an enemy spy who deliberately destroyed important national scientific research results."

When Zhao Qiang heard the accusation, he was so frightened that he almost jumped up from his chair. He immediately lost his composure. He knew that if the accusation was proven, he would probably be killed with a peanut.

He quickly waved his hands to deny: "No, no, I'm not an enemy spy! I just... I was just confused for a moment, I really am not an enemy spy!"

Seeing Zhao Qiang's panic, the interrogator continued to question him. After a severe interrogation, Zhao Qiang finally couldn't stand the pressure.

He completely collapsed and confessed everything about how he had lost his mind and destroyed the data because of personal jealousy and Zhou Yimin's refutation of him.

After hearing this, the interrogator was so angry that his face turned blue and his hands clenched into fists. If he hadn't been holding back, he would have almost beaten Zhao Qiang.

They were well aware that the precious data was almost destroyed by Zhao Qiang, and how much potential harm it had caused to the country's scientific research.

After the interrogation, Zhao Qiang was placed in the worst detention room.

Afterwards, Zhao Qiang was put in a detention room. The detention room was dark and damp, and filled with an unpleasant smell. There were already several people detained in it. As soon as Zhao Qiang entered, he found a corner and sat down with an impatient look.

The people held in this detention room were all those who had committed serious crimes. As soon as Zhao Qiang entered, he felt the atmosphere was extremely depressing.

When the people inside saw newcomers coming in, they were like hungry wolves seeing their prey, with strange lights flashing in their eyes.

A tall, fleshy man came over, looked Zhao Qiang up and down, and asked, "New here, what's the crime that brought you here?"

Zhao Qiang was already in a bad mood, and he replied unhappily: "It's none of your business, mind your own business."

When the man heard this, his face instantly darkened, and several people behind him also surrounded him, forming an oppressive force.

The man said angrily: "Boy, how dare you be so arrogant here? It seems that you don't know the rules here.

Zhao Qiang didn't know how to restrain himself and continued to talk back: "What rules or no rules? I'm not afraid of you."

These words completely infuriated the man, and he kicked Zhao Qiang hard, causing Zhao Qiang to stagger and fall to the ground.

He struggled to get up and tried to resist, but was held down by several people. The man said viciously: "Today I will teach you a lesson. You must behave yourself here."

As they said that, several people started to punch and kick Zhao Qiang. Zhao Qiang was still fantasizing that if he was allowed to go out, he would definitely show Zhou Yimin his skills.

If it weren't for Zhou Yimin, I wouldn't have fallen to this state.

Zhao Qiang's shouting quickly attracted the police. A young police officer walked into the detention room and asked with a frown, "What happened?"

Zhao Qiang seemed to have seen a savior. He rolled and crawled to the police, pointed at the man who was beating him and said, "He hit me!"

The police officer glanced at Zhao Qiang, then at the others, with a hint of disdain on his face, and then changed his tone and said, "Did you see the fight?"

The people in the detention room were not fools. They immediately understood what the police meant. They knew that Zhao Qiang must have committed a crime that the police hated, so they all shook their heads.

Seeing this, the police said to Zhao Qiang: "No one else saw it, so don't shout."

After saying that, he turned and left. After the police left, the people in the detention room were more certain that Zhao Qiang had made a big mistake, and their curiosity was completely aroused.

Everyone gathered around and asked again, "What did you do wrong?" Zhao Qiang was afraid of being beaten again, so he could only confess everything.

After hearing this, everyone was shocked. They didn't expect that Zhao Qiang had committed such a serious crime.

In the face of such a major issue of right and wrong, everyone had a clear judgment in their hearts. They were united in their disdain for Zhao Qiang.

The big man took another step forward and sneered, "How dare you be so arrogant here? Today I'll let you know the rules here!"

As he said this, he was about to take action again.

Zhao Qiang stepped back in fear, his face full of fear. He knew that he had become the bottom of the food chain in this detention room.

What awaits him next will be endless pain.

Soon it was time for dinner, and Zhao Qiang's portion was obviously snatched away in an instant.

The person who immediately snatched the food away said smugly, "You are the kind of person who still wants to have a full meal?"

After seeing this scene, the others immediately burst into laughter: "You are right."

Zhao Qiang couldn't stand it anymore and immediately stepped forward to try to snatch the food back.

He hadn't eaten anything for the entire day. Before, when he was in Zhoujiazhuang, he only had one meal a day, and it was never enough.

Zhao Qiang was so hungry that he felt dizzy. If he didn't snatch the food back, he would also faint from hunger.

But in return, he was beaten again.

Zhao Qiang screamed in pain and shouted, "Why are you hitting people? The police will take care of it!"

The man laughed disdainfully after hearing this: "Public security? Look at what you have done. The public security doesn't even bother to care about you."

After hearing this, Zhao Qiang immediately felt desperate. He also knew that what the man said was true, as he could tell from the police's reaction just now.
