Chapter 107 is not strange, it's despicable.
"What's your name?" He Xiaohai asked.
"He Wenqiang," the dark-skinned, overweight man replied.
"He Wenqiang? Why don't you call yourself Xu Wenqiang?" He Xiaohai sneered.
"Officer, it's one thing to arrest me without any explanation, but you can't just change my ancestors' surnames, can you?" The fat, dark-skinned man raised his hands, shaking the handcuffs, looking aggrieved and angry.
"Where's your ID card?" He Xiaohai ignored him and continued to ask.
"I didn't bring it!" the fat, dark-skinned man said angrily.
What are you doing at Xusheng Company?
“My younger brother worked at his company and died in an accident, but he refused to pay compensation.”
What's your brother's name?
"He Dahai!"
The policeman next to He Xiaohai nudged him, raised an eyebrow and smiled, giving him a knowing look.
"You're not telling the truth, are you?" He Xiaohai continued his interrogation calmly. Inwardly, however, he was cursing, "You worthless bastard, how dare you take advantage of me! Just wait and see how I deal with you!"
"Officer, I'm telling the truth. You can't favor the rich and bully us migrant workers!" The fat, dark-skinned man banged on the chair with his handcuffs and protested loudly.
"Li..." The policeman next to him had just uttered a word when He Xiaohai interrupted him.
He Xiaohai's expression was serious as he sternly rebuked, "Confess and you'll be treated leniently; resist and you'll be punished severely! This is your last chance; confess honestly!"
"Officer, you're not trying to frame me or force a confession, are you? Let me tell you, the law is fair and won't tolerate your whims!" The fat, dark-skinned man showed no fear.
"Have you written everything down?" He Xiaohai asked the recorder, tilting his head.
After receiving an affirmative answer, he said to the fat, dark-skinned man, "You're right, the law is just. It will neither wrong an innocent person nor let a guilty person go free!"
Li Yuancai!
We gave you a chance, but since you didn't cherish it, you can't blame us!
The chubby man was stunned when he heard the name Li Yuancai, and his arrogance vanished instantly.
He immediately forced a smile, put on a fawning expression, and whispered, "Officer, I'm not He Wenqiang. I was wrong. I shouldn't have impersonated my cousin, but my cousin really did have an accident at their company."
"Are you sure you want to resist and refuse to confess?" He Xiaohai looked leisurely at the dark-skinned and fat Li Yuancai, his contempt undisguised.
Li Yuancai kept his head down, his hands clasped together, his two thumbs constantly digging into each other, and his eyes darting around.
There were two little people arguing in his head:
One person said, "That person just now said 'Li,' but they misunderstood it as you. You've already missed one chance to be honest; you can't miss a second one."
One person said that it's possible some bastard let his mouth slip and revealed his identity, and the police didn't know the specifics, so he was trying to trick them.
"Have you thought this through? If you miss this chance to confess, you'll be facing a severe sentence!" He Xiaohai said, leisurely twirling the pen in his hand, the twirling so fast that it created a blur of light and shadow.
Li Yuancai looked up and seemed to see a swirling blade. A chill ran through him, and he blurted out, "I confess!"
The interrogations on both sides went smoothly. The key was that Tian Guoqiang and his team had obtained crucial evidence. One of the two "dead men," who used the alias He Yaoguo, had been arrested, and the other, who used the alias He Dahai, was being monitored and apprehended.
This group has already used the same methods to extort money from several developers in several counties and cities. Most of the developers have paid compensation and the matter has been settled. A very small number of people felt something was wrong and reported the case to the police, but they could not find any evidence of fraud and the matter was dropped.
Tian Guoqiang had heard of similar cases before. When he heard Deng Xiuzhen say that she suspected the two people weren't dead, he immediately realized the key to the problem: finding the "dead"! If they weren't dead, then it was definitely a case of extortion!
So, without making a sound, he began his investigation from several angles, including the van, Li Yuancai, and the construction site, and soon discovered the "dead man" Li Yuanxin, who was using the alias He Yaoguo. They arrested and interrogated Li Yuanxin without anyone noticing.
I learned that they all belonged to a fraud gang led by Brother Hao. The gang members were not only from various counties and cities, but also from the provincial capital; Brother Hao seemed to be from the provincial capital.
Their target is the developers. They first send people to get acquainted with the foremen or other key figures at the construction site, bribe them or find incriminating evidence against them, and then send people to the construction site to create an accident scene in order to claim compensation.
For example, in this case, the company that defrauded Qin Yanlin first bribed the foreman, Li Ronghao, who was related to the project manager, Li Mulin, and quickly won him over. Then they sent Li Yuanxin and Peng Kai to the construction site…
After gathering sufficient evidence, he reported to his superiors, and the province dispatched a special task force. After a tight cordon, several counties and cities launched a joint arrest operation, striving to wipe out these social scourges in one fell swoop.
Hearing that no one had died, it was a scam set up by a fraud ring, Qin Yanlin was stunned, then quickly expressed his gratitude.
Tian Guoqiang said calmly, "The person you should thank the most is your wife, Deng Xiuzhen. It was she who came to us and said that those two people might have faked their deaths, and that's when we started investigating. Otherwise, if no one had reported it, we wouldn't have started investigating this matter for no reason."
Tian Guoqiang emphasized the word "lover" and drew out the sound.
After saying that, he turned and left. He was busy and didn't have time to waste words with this kind of person!
Qin Yanlin looked at Tian Guoqiang's back with a mix of confusion and nervousness, because he sensed hostility and contempt in Tian Guoqiang's words and actions.
As he went outside, he saw Tian Yutong coming out of another room. He quickly ran over and asked with concern, "How are you? Are you alright?"
Tian Yutong frowned slightly and said softly that she was fine. But as soon as she took a step, she hissed, as if she had aggravated the wound on her back.
"Should we go see a doctor?" Qin Yanlin quickly supported Tian Yutong's arm. He reached out too fast and aggravated the injury on her back, but she didn't cry out in pain.
But then he thought of Tian Yutong, a girl, who had also been hit like him, and how much pain she must be in. A feeling of guilt and heartache welled up inside him.
"Thank you for your concern, Mr. Qin. I'm fine, just a little dizzy. I'll be fine after I rest at home. There are still many things to take care of at the company. You haven't been home for several days either. I wonder how the children are doing. You should go back soon!" Tian Yutong was pale and looked frail, but she urged Qin Yanlin to go back quickly.
Listening to Tian Yutong's considerate words, Qin Yanlin felt sorry for Tian Yutong, but his anger towards Deng Xiuzhen also rose rapidly.
He said angrily, "Don't be stubborn, I'll take you to the hospital to get checked out first!"
As he spoke, he carefully helped Tian Yutong walk out.
"Why do these two seem so strange?" Zhou Tian sidled up to He Xiaohai and gossiped.
"Not weird, just despicable, a pair of despicable people!" He Xiaohai muttered under his breath.
"Don't swear, you'll be punished if someone hears you!" Zhou Tian glanced in Tian Guoqiang's direction.
