Chapter: 1015
Ma Lian's heart skipped a beat, wondering if she even had the chance to settle scores with that scoundrel Ye Chen.
Why should she have to wait until the end of time to take revenge?
She tried to probe cautiously, asking in a low voice: "Officer... can I just tell my husband about this privately at home?"
The black-faced officer slammed his fist on the table, turning to the red-faced officer beside him and saying: "I knew this kind of silly woman wouldn't believe me. You're still going to let her go? Did you hear what she said? She wants to go find that Ye Chen privately! That's not just a death wish, it's also going to ruin our case!"
The red-faced officer's face turned dark as well, staring at Ma Lian and saying coldly: "Ma Lian, I'm really disappointed in you. I thought you could keep your mouth shut about this, but it turns out you still want to go find Ye Chen! Everything we just talked about was for nothing?"
Ma Lian's heart skipped a beat again, nervously asking: "Officer... can I have my day like this because of Ye Chen? Am I really not allowed to go ask him about this?"
The red-faced officer scolded angrily: "Foolish! Ye Chen is one of the members who received a black card! That criminal organization has been monitoring him all along, possibly even tracking every move and word he makes. It's possible that there are hidden surveillance devices and eavesdropping equipment in your home, and if you dare to go back and ask him just one question, you may invite disaster for yourself or even your whole family!"
Ma Lian was shocked and hastily said: "Then I won't say anything, I won't say a word, nobody will know! I swear on my honor that I won't say a single thing!"
The black-faced officer sneered coldly: "What are you saying now? Listen, it's too late! I've already warned you that someone like you is completely untrustworthy. If you're let out, you'll only cause harm and eventually destroy our case, and then even your own life will be at stake!"
After he finished speaking, he turned to the red-faced officer and said: "I think we should lock her up again. We won't release her until the case is solved."
The red-faced officer didn't object anymore, nodded slightly and said: "Cautionary measures are in order, I think this is the best course of action."
Ma Lian heard the two officers' conversation and suddenly burst into tears, crying so bitterly that it was like her heart was being torn apart. With her hands cuffed behind her back, she vigorously bit her lips and exclaimed: "Officers, please believe me! I've really learned my lesson. I won't say another word. Please let me go, I promise not to mention this case to anyone else. Please don't send me back inside. If you do, I'll definitely die in there!"
The black-faced officer stared at her coldly and said: "I don't believe you at all."
Ma Lian felt a pang of regret and thought she would rather kill herself than speak up again.
Why did she bring up Ye Chen's name? What's more important than getting out of here now?
And what's the point of going to find Ye Chen anyway? This card is just something that criminal organization intentionally gave him. I'm no match for their temptation, and even if I go to find Ye Chen, it's like a tiger taking on an elephant.
What's more to consider, there's that despicable transnational criminal organization behind us. If I were to yell at Ye Chen, I'd only invite disaster upon myself, wouldn't I?
Now it's too late, because I just compromised and missed my chance to get out. It looks like I've already blown it...
She thought carefully and could only use her "cry, shout, and hang oneself" tactics, crying to the two police officers: "Officers, if you don't let me go, I'll hang myself in my cell at home!"
As Ma Lian looked like she was about to give up on life, the two police officers exchanged a glance. The red-faced policeman opened his mouth and asked: "Ma Lian, we can consider letting you go, but there are some issues that need to be clarified first. If we let you go, you'll return home, and your family will ask about your whereabouts these past two days. How do you plan to explain it?"
Ma Lian hastily replied: "I... I'll just tell them... my situation these past two days..."
Ma Lian hesitated for a while without saying anything meaningful because she herself didn't know how to explain it to her husband and daughter when she got home.
After all, I vanished without warning for two days and nights. What's more important is that I have no good explanations on me from head to toe, and anyone can see that I've been thoroughly beaten.
More importantly, two teeth had fallen out, making it too pitiful this way.
The red-faced policeman said calmly: "Okay, I'll come up with an idea. If we consider it and decide to let you go, then when you get home, you can tell your husband, daughter, and son-in-law that you got mixed up with a pyramid scheme organization, which brainwashed you, made you complete a fraud at the bank, and then you were caught by the police."
