Chapter: 4795

She knew that her luggage was packed by herself, and there was nothing inside except for what she had clearly seen, and it wasn't possible to have any contraband at all.

The police said that one of the two checked luggage boxes contained contraband. It must be the same one that Zhong Qiuhua asked me to help bring back to Hong Kong!

As soon as she thought about this, Ma'er suddenly had a moment of clarity: it turned out that Zhong Qiuhua was not some successful businesswoman or distant relative of a beverage king at all - she was a complete scammer! She had played this role for so long just to swindle me and help her smuggle contraband out!

Moreover, the police had already said that the contraband found in that luggage box weighed over 5,500 grams. There was no doubt about it; if it were discovered domestically, she would be sentenced to death!

She felt completely remorseful and terrified, crying to the policewoman: "The American police officer... I was really deceived by someone, it's a woman named Zhong Qiuhua who asked me to bring back checked luggage boxes to Hong Kong, but I had no idea what was inside them, and I'm innocent! Please help me!"

The policewoman smiled coldly and said: "What did she promise you in return? You're willing to help someone smuggle goods across the border?"

Ma'er hastily replied: "I didn't ask for any compensation at all; it was just a favor between friends..."

As Ma'er spoke, she was actually quite nervous.

She knew herself that she had agreed to help Zhong Qiuhua only because Zhong promised to send her a Lexus LM300 and let her enjoy some good times in Hong Kong.

However, Ma'er thought that even if these were verbal commitments, she hadn't received any money from the woman, so there was no evidence for the police to find.

The policewoman looked at Ma'er with a hint of pity, then turned to her colleague and took Ma'er to their police station next to the airport.

Ma'er, who had broken one rib, was crying and complaining on the way, hoping to get medical treatment first. But the policewoman simply said: "It's just a minor injury; you don't need to go to the hospital. Our paramedic will come and give you a simple fixation, then prescribe some oral anti-inflammatory medication for you."

Ma'er wailed, saying: "You're too inhumane! I'll report this to you! Oh no! I'll sue you! You won't pay me two thousand million dollars; there's nothing we can do about it!"

As Ma'er spoke, she suddenly remembered something and loudly exclaimed: "A few years ago, a Vietnamese-American man was forcibly removed from one of your planes and eventually received compensation of 14 billion dollars online!"

The policewoman spoke calmly: "First, the incident you're talking about is a dispute between the airline and the passenger. As for your current situation, it's a criminal case involving international drug trafficking, and since you resisted arrest with the intention to fight back, the officers have the right to use force to apprehend you;"

"The entire process of our enforcement has been recorded on video, so if you have any disputes with our enforcement, you can ask your lawyer to question us. I believe your lawyer will be able to provide an explanation for you when the time comes."

Ma'er suddenly realized that this matter must be very serious.

Her tone softened and she asked hesitantly: "Police officer... I'm really innocent, ya know? How can you prove my innocence?"

The policewoman replied calmly: "To prove your innocence, the only way is to catch the other party and have them admit it in person. Otherwise, there's no way to prove your innocence. These contraband items were found in your luggage, so if we cannot prove that you didn't know about them, then you won't be able to clear your name!"

Ma'er panicked and exclaimed: "I have a chat record with her! She was leading me on the whole time, and the chat record can prove my innocence!"

The policewoman shook her head: "If we just rely on the chat record to prove your innocence, that's too simplistic. In the future, all drug traffickers will just manufacture a chat record, then come and claim they're innocent, and if it fails, they'll use the chat record as evidence. Don't you think there are so many loopholes in the law that we can exploit?"

Ma'er heard this and suddenly exclaimed: "What are you still doing standing around for? Go grab Zong Qiuhua right away! She just left the airport a little while ago, she hasn't had time to get out of New York yet! If we catch her, then give her a thorough interrogation, and I'm sure it will prove my innocence!"

The policewoman spoke coldly: "We police officers don't need you to command us. Right now, we're going to take your statement first. If you have a lawyer, we can notify them for you. If not, we'll assign one to you. You choose."

Ma'er blurted out: "I'm going to call my family! I'm going to call my daughter and son-in-law!"

Ma'er exclaimed: "Save me, good son-in-law!" JrNovels.com
