Death sentence turned into acquittal? Who told him to be a detective!

Chapter 206 Confession! [Seeking monthly votes!]

Zheng Shijie knows too much.

If he can't bite his lip.
For all of them, that meant they could just wait to die!

3 month 21 day.

Eight in the morning.

Inside Jiangcheng Detention Center.

Inside the detention center, Zheng Shijie was operating a sewing machine, but the stitching on the fabric he was making was extremely ugly, and he was clearly distracted and frequently lost in thought.

He even nearly hurt himself!

Seeing this, the prisoners around him asked in hushed tones.

"Brother Zheng, what's wrong?"

Hear sounds.

Zheng Shijie snapped out of his daze, looking at the somewhat dazed person beside him, and said:

"Nothing."

After saying that, he continued to bury himself in sewing.

But unfortunately, his pale appearance, the bloodshot eyes, and the uneasy breathing were all evident.

One look at him and you can tell he's extremely anxious!
"Da da da da da~!!!"

Zheng Shijie sewed the clothes expressionlessly, but his mind was elsewhere.

Ever since Xu Liang said those words to him on the afternoon of the 19th...
The other party has disappeared.

Yes, they disappeared. It's been two days now, and he hasn't seen them again!

It's like... I really went there to take care of something.

What did you do?

He targeted his own wife and daughters!
If the other party is truly determined to target us.

The only outcome is that they will fall to the bottom of society, or even become homeless!

He believed Zhao Hailong would give him the money, but with the police watching, Zhao Hailong giving him the money would be tantamount to self-destruction!

With a little money, the police set their sights on him and began a thorough investigation.
Therefore, after realizing that this was a judicial freeze, Zhao Hailong and Cheng Jia would absolutely not do anything, at most offering some relief. No, if Xu Liang was truly targeting them, relief was impossible!

Therefore, Zheng Yu and Zhao Yue
"no, do not want!"

Zheng Shijie was startled and blurted out the words without thinking.

The prisoners beside them looked at each other, unsure of what to say.

Realizing he had lost his temper, Zheng Shijie quickly composed himself, calmed down, and continued operating the sewing machine.

What is the fate of female beggars and homeless women?
No one understands it better than Zheng Shijie!

It was sexual assault.

It was continuous sexual assault!

These kinds of people are also known as 'free sex workers'!
During her time as a homeless woman, she was repeatedly sexually assaulted, became pregnant and gave birth repeatedly, eventually developing mental health issues and becoming completely insane. She later died during a difficult childbirth.
"No, that won't happen."

Zheng Shijie's eyes gradually became bloodshot. He murmured to himself, and his sewing movements became faster and faster.

A sense of urgency filled his heart.

until
"Boom!"

The door to the sewing room was pushed open, and a prison guard walked in, looked around, and said:

“Prisoner 9527, Zheng Shijie, come out.”

in the crowd.

Zheng Shijie paused, stunned.

He stood up and walked outside.

Who would see him? He didn't know, but Xu Liang was the first person who came to mind.

The other party wants to re-interrogate me!?
Unfortunately, reality dealt him a heavy blow.

When Zheng Shijie went outside and asked the prison guard, the guard's response was...
"Your wife has come to see you," the prison guard said expressionlessly.

Wife?

In an instant, Zheng Shijie's face turned deathly pale.

If he remembered correctly, Xu Liang's last words were...
Arrange for him to meet his wife!

Now that they've actually come, what's the story behind the arrangements?
Zheng Shijie didn't think the other party had invited him in a very gentle way. Considering the previously mentioned funding issues, the arrangement was already very clear.

"No, wait, isn't he a policeman!?"

"Sun Chuan. That's the Jiangcheng Police Chief! They're police officers, how could they do this?!"

Zheng Shijie was screaming inside, but the prison guards wouldn't give him much time.

They pushed the other person directly towards the reception room.

On the way.

Zheng Shijie still harbored a last glimmer of hope.

Perhaps the other party won't go too far.
Perhaps the other person's behavior is not the same as what you think.

Unfortunately.
Amidst a jumble of emotions, seeing Zhao Yue's haggard face through the glass of the reception room made him feel incredibly vulnerable!

Zheng Shijie's lips were pale. He sat trembling in the chair, his mind blank, staring at his wife in front of him.

"What do you want from me?"

His vibrato reached Zhao Yue's ears through the microphone.

Zhao Yue noticed nothing amiss, but upon hearing the noise, she broke down in tears, covering her face with one hand and sobbing:

"Xiaoyu owes nine thousand yuan, and the online lending company is demanding nine thousand yuan from her!"

"She's been late for several months, and if she can't pay me back this month..."

talking.

Zhao Yue couldn't bear to say what followed, so she could only cover her mouth and break down in tears:

“My card has also been frozen. I don’t have that much money on hand, and it takes a long time to sell the things I’ve bought in the past.”

"Brother Zhao doesn't dare to pay. He says it's a judicial freeze, done by the police, and he's afraid to pay. He asked me to come and ask you if there's a problem with the prison."

"Is it a problem with the prison? Tell me quickly, someone knocked on Xiaoyu's door yesterday; they've come to collect the debt."

Hear the words.

Zheng Shijie's face grew paler and paler, his head was buzzing, and he could hear nothing but a piercing tinnitus.

Reality unfolded in the way he least wanted to see.

That young man really did what he said; he attacked Zhao Yue and her daughter!

This is not alarmist talk, nor is it simply scare tactics; it's serious!
"No, no... how could this be?"

Zheng Shijie was deathly pale, muttering to himself.

If the other party wasn't lying, does that mean the so-called 'corpse exactly the same as the one in the jar' is also real?
If this is true, then the case will surely be solved!

In an instant.

Zheng Shijie's face darkened; he was deep in thought.

If the case is solved, Zhao Hailong and his gang will certainly face death. As for Zhao Yue and Zheng Yu, their fate is predictable; they will most likely die somewhere.

No.
No!

"Don't leave the detention center!"

Zheng Shijie suddenly raised his head and said to Zhao Yue.

Zhao Yue paused for a moment. Although she didn't understand, she still trusted the other party and didn't rush to leave the detention center.

She wanted to say something else.

Unexpectedly, Zheng Shijie got up and left.

"I want to see Sun Chuan! I want to see Sun Chuan!!!"

Zheng Shijie roared at the prison guards, his voice so loud it was almost a roar.

He wants to see Sun Chuan!
He wants to see Xu Liang!!!
The other party has found the more than ten missing jars, has a corpse in their possession, and it's only a matter of time before they uncover the truth by keeping an eye on the factory. At that time, Zhao Yue will surely suffer the fate they predicted.

At that time, I would have no value whatsoever.
The police haven't found him yet, so he still has value; we can negotiate and fight for our interests!

Think of this.

Zheng Shijie's eyes grew increasingly bloodshot, and he shouted hoarsely:
"I want to see Sun Chuan!!!"

"He wants to see me?"

Jiangcheng.

Police station, inside the courtyard.

A group of people huddled together, standing around a few ceramic jars.

Sun Chuan was inside.

Upon receiving the news, Sun Chuan's expression immediately turned strange.

"Or rather, I want to see you."

Sun Chuan looked at Xu Liang standing to the side.

At this moment, Xu Liang was looking at the pottery jar that the group of people were gathered around.

Or rather, a ceramic jar!
This thing is about one meter tall and as wide as a person's waist; it looks like a large wine jar.

This is a kimchi factory, containing more than a dozen kimchi jars that disappeared back then, all of which looked identical.

Hearing Sun Chuan's words.

Xu Liang didn't pay much attention and casually replied:
"We're not the ones in a rush now. Why didn't we do this earlier? We only realized we should turn back after we hit a wall."

"Let's leave him out for now!" Upon hearing this.

Sun Chuan suppressed his initial urge to investigate immediately and reluctantly agreed.

He really wanted to go now, since he wasn't the other party, and he just wanted to find out the case as quickly as possible.

Xu Liang was currently looking at the earthenware jar in front of him.

This was left by the police.

It's very sturdy and difficult to use; an ordinary person couldn't break it at all.

just
Xu Liang paused.

He took off his shoes and coat and tried to crawl into the jar, but...
"I can't get in."

Xu Liang got stuck.

There was no room for his legs to curl up inside; the entire earthenware jar could only hold half a person at most.

If that's the case, then what kind of people could have squeezed those dozen or so pottery jars that disappeared back then?

Adults?
No, even adults who are 1.5 or 1.6 meters tall have to be very thin.

It resembles the deceased, Qi Yu.
It’s simply impossible!
But Qi Yu was also selected as a target.
If that's the mode of transport, how was Qi Yu stuffed inside?
"Can someone really hide in here?" Sun Chuan was also puzzled.

If it's a child, then they can hide a lot.

But people from the shelter for the disabled and the kimchi factory shouldn't be able to get in.

What exactly was Zheng Shijie transporting in his truck back then?

If there were a person inside the jar, what kind of person would it be to fit inside?
"A pretty girl?"

Sun Chuan raised a question.

The so-called "vase girl" is a very strange thing.

A person has no body, or rather, the body is a vase with a woman's head at the mouth of the vase.

The woman was still alive and could speak and greet people, but her whole body seemed to have been stuffed into a vase.

This is a folk magic trick that uses parallax to create illusions and is often performed in various rural circuses.

This thing doesn't quite fit right now.

"This must be at least the Water Jar Girl!"

Xu Liang gestured to indicate the roughness of the earthenware jar and then offered his comment.

But unfortunately.

Based on my own abilities, there's no way I can find out this information right now.

finally.
Half past three in the afternoon.

"Let's go see Zheng Shijie."

Xu Liang spoke up.

The truth is simple; just ask Zheng Shijie and you'll find out!

Sun Chuan and the others immediately agreed, while Yang Ruoxi and Su Yu had been eagerly waiting for it.

"go!"

Without hesitation, both sides got into their respective cars.

"Om~!"

The engine roared, the four rubber tires turned, and it slowly moved toward the detention center!

Cars weaved through the streets.

Around four o'clock in the afternoon.

It finally came to a steady stop at the entrance of the detention center.

The person in charge of the detention center, whom they had already contacted by phone, was waiting at the entrance. Upon seeing the group, he immediately went forward to greet them.

"Everyone is all arranged and in the reception room. Now is the best time to ask you any questions."

The person in charge said, clicking his tongue as he led the way.

To be honest, he still doesn't understand what's going on.

I thought the plan was not going to work.

But to everyone's surprise, Zhao Yue suddenly came to visit Zheng Shijie today, just as Xu Liang had suggested!
Zheng Shijie, on the other hand, acted like a madman, constantly demanding to see Xu Liang. Compared to his previous attitude, he seemed like a completely different person.

But these things are none of my business.

Thinking of this, the person in charge quickened his pace and finally stopped at the door of a reception room.

He stretched out his hand.

"Squeak~!"

The main door to the reception room was opened, and the scene inside immediately appeared in front of Xu Liang.

Inside the reception room, a haggard-looking Zheng Shijie sat. Hearing the noise, he subconsciously looked up.

That tired, anxious face, as if it had been tortured beyond recognition, appeared before everyone, with bloodshot eyes that were extremely red!

See someone coming.

Zheng Shijie's heart tightened.

"Snapped!"

Xu Liang sat down in the chair opposite him, looked at Zheng Shijie in front of him, and smiled.

"Mr. Zheng, have you met with Ms. Zhao?"

"How was it? Did you catch up and feel a little comforted?"

Have it?

Zheng Shijie no longer had the energy to pay attention to these sarcastic words, and simply remained silent without any strong reaction.

Seeing this, Xu Liang dropped his mocking tone and directly asked:

What were those dozen or so jars that disappeared five years ago?

Xu Liang asked calmly, looking at the other person expressionlessly, quietly waiting for their answer.

Zheng Shijie's lips moved; he was struggling internally.

He said that he and Zhao Hailong and the others would die, but his wife and daughters might still be able to live a normal life.

If I don't say it, everyone will die!
finally.

Emotions triumphed over selfishness.

Zheng Shijie's expression gradually broke down, and he looked somewhat ferocious.

"people."

"There's a person inside the jar!"

There are people in the jar. There really are people inside, but how could anyone fit them in?

“I’ve tried it. Adults can’t go in; only children can,” Xu Liang said again.

A jar cannot hold a person.

It only looks like it can be used to pretend, but in reality, although a person can stand inside and their waist can fit in, their legs cannot be bent, and they can only maintain a half-squat position, and their upper body cannot fit in.

Can.
"Only half can go in, right?"

Zheng Shijie suddenly gave up on himself, and a creepy smile appeared on his face, as if he were mocking himself.

"Yes, only half of it can go in, so..."

"So all you have to do is cut off the lower half."

"Then it will fit."

砍掉
An ordinary person cannot fit it in.

But if you just cut off the lower half, you can stuff it into that jar!?
"Where are the dozen or so jars now?" Xu Liang's eyes narrowed.

"It sank into the river."

Zheng Shijie gave a bitter laugh and revealed a fact that sent chills down everyone's spines.

"I ran into Zhao Hailong on the way and he came to my rescue. He took his men and took care of the situation on the spot, sinking the body directly into the river."

In an instant.

When those words were spoken, the entire reception room fell silent. Sun Chuan stood there, stunned, his lips moving.

Xu Liang continued to inquire:
Why transport these people?

“They’re very valuable; they’re worth a lot of money,” Zheng Shijie said.

make money?

Some disabled people whose lower bodies were cut off
How much money can they make?! They're even willing to risk being beheaded!

"How much money do they make?" Sun Chuan asked through gritted teeth, his face ashen.

How profitable is it?

Zheng Shijie gave a bitter smile.

As he spoke, a strange emotion welled up in his chest, his adrenaline surged, and he said excitedly:

"No capital required, huge profits! No capital required, huge profits!"

"These people...no, they're not human."
