Chapter 390: Chapter 390: Accompanying Interrogation_1

At the entrance of Shengshi Hotel, several police cars were blaring their sirens non-stop, their lights flashing incessantly.

Next, two policemen carried a body bag and put it into a vehicle, while the three strong men were lying heavily on stretchers, being carried out.

At the entrance, a crowd had already gathered, many of whom were recording the scene.

Afterward, Xu Fan came out alongside Luo Guang, while Ye Xiaoning and her daughter were escorted by two police officers to the police car heading for Xinghai Media.

After all, the matter wasn’t over, and it was only safe for the police to protect Xu Fan.

Seeing that Xu Fan was not handcuffed but still entered the police car, Xu Qiyin, observing the scene from Weisen Yue Hotel’s sixth floor, swirled the whisky in his glass and said with a self-satisfied smile, “Tsk, tsk, one dead, three injured, and numerous witnesses on the scene, this is no small matter. I’m curious to see how he’ll extricate himself from this one.”

“Young Master, something’s not right,” Old Huang said, frowning as he watched the scene below.

“What’s the problem?” Xu Qiyin asked, puzzled, looking at Old Huang.

Old Huang pursed his lips and said, “Although he got into the police car, he wasn’t handcuffed. Besides, he was walking shoulder to shoulder with that police officer, even talking and laughing. That doesn’t look like he’s been arrested!”

Xu Qiyin took a thoughtful sip of his whisky, feeling unsettled, his face turning somewhat ugly as he muttered to himself, “This shouldn’t be happening. Xu Fan has been cut off from the Xu Family for three years, and Xu Yixue wouldn’t ask her family for help because of the betting agreement. As for the Sun Family and Lu Chenbing, although they’re local heavyweights, they shouldn’t be able to easily suppress a homicide case.”

Old Huang said, “Anyone with sense wouldn’t mess with this situation. After all, human life is the most precious.”

“Old Huang, contact the family now and find out what happened,” Xu Qiyin ordered with a frown.

“Wait a moment, Young Master,” Old Huang moved aside to begin making a phone call.

Xu Qiyin watched the police car disappear from view, his eyes narrowed, his expression grim.

Xu Fan made a reassuring phone call to Xu Yixue from the police car, informing her that Ye Xiaoning was being escorted back to the company by the police, and that he was going to the police station to provide his statement, so he might return home late.

“Mm, be careful,” Xu Yixue responded with a hum, asking no further questions.

When Xu Fan walked in, the man with the gold chain was wincing in pain, his face pale, and his spirits low.

As soon as he looked up and saw Xu Fan, he shivered immediately, fear evident on his face.

This man was simply the god of death; killing him would be as easy as turning over his hand.

Now facing Xu Fan again, he didn’t know where to find the courage he once had.

Xu Fan and Luo Guang sat down, with Luo Guang in charge of leading the interrogation and Xu Fan merely observing.

So as soon as they sat down, Luo Guang switched on the desk lamp, directing it at the face of the man with the gold chain, and turned on the recording pen.

The interrogation began!

“From now on, you will answer whatever I ask, understand?” Luo Guang said sternly.

“Understood,” the man hurriedly answered, bowing his head and squinting his eyes—both to reduce the light’s glare and to avoid meeting Xu Fan’s gaze.

“What’s your name?”

“Duan Dajin.”

“Where are you from?”

“Longhu Province, Zhonghai City, Nanyuan Town.”

Luo Guang quickly typed on the notebook keyboard, recording Duan Dajin’s information, and then said, “Tell me about today’s incident.”

From the corner of his eye, Duan Dajin noticed both of them looking at him, especially Xu Fan’s gaze, which made him very uneasy. He lost his nerve, and although he was prepared initially to talk back, he now didn’t dare play any tricks and spilled everything he knew.

“Three years ago, under his leadership, we four brothers got involved in a societal conflict. He injured someone with a knife and needed someone to take the fall, so he pushed the four of us out to face the music. When we got out, we were already...”

“Smack! Am I here to listen to your nonsense? Don’t I already know these things? Do I need you to tell me?” Luo Guang suddenly slapped the table and scolded.

“Alright... Okay,” Duan Dajin jumped at the scolding and hurriedly said, “The four brothers couldn’t find work, had nowhere to go, so we became hired thugs, settling small scores for others, and we managed to scrape by. Until last night, an unknown call came in, offering two hundred thousand just for us to kidnap someone.”
