Heart Hunting

Chapter 119: I’m Not the Chief Mastermind

Police Station

Under pressure from the superiors, the police in charge of this case did not dare to take it lightly and

even took the six gangsters into six interrogation rooms individually for a second interrogation.

A small interrogation room decorated with a table, three simple chairs, and a small lamp on the table

invisibly brought a sense of pressure to the criminals.

The gangster sitting on one side looked fearless, staring directly at the two policemen, arrogantly

spreading their hands, “Sir, no matter how you ask, I have nothing to say. I’m just doing things for

others. I didn’t complete the crime so you cannot arrest me.”

The two policemen looked at each other and then showed another document. The file on it was

Chuck’s file. The policeman pointed to his photo and asked, “Do you know this man?”

The gangster glanced lightly at it and said nothing.

“You don’t have to hide. We have known that you all always mingle with him.”

After the first interrogation, the police found that their confessions were the same and the descriptions

of the crimes were the same. So the police held a meeting, decided to directly turn over the

background of each of them, and then found Chuck was involved.

“So what? It is our doing not our boss’s.” The gangster directly confessed and planned to take the

blame.

Anyway, Chuck had already told them that they were at most arrested on a charge of attempted

kidnapping, which was a minor charge.

The policeman sneered, “You are quite loyal to him.”

Another policeman said, “But have you ever thought that your loyalty was meaningless because, your

boss has already run away?”

The gangster’s expression changed slightly. He didn’t believe it, “No, our boss wouldn’t do that.”

“Ha-ha, don’t be silly. If we have caught your boss, we don’t need to interrogate you.”

The gangster, alarmed, lowered his head and clasped his hands tightly.

“You think highly of loyalty but he doesn’t treat you as brothers at all. If he is really kind and righteous,

he would have come to bail you as soon as possible. But all of you are still trapped here?”

The two policemen felt delighted secretly when his expression changed slightly.

“No, our boss won't abandon us...” The gangster murmured to himself, and the line of defense in his

heart had begun to lower.

“You regard him as a brother but he regards you as a minion. What so-called loyalty is!. Think about it

yourself. Who instructed you to do it?”

The gangster was still reluctant to say. He frowned and felt confused.

After a while, the police continued, “If you want to defend him and waste our time, we are here now and

then. But I have to warn you that your boss had run away free and life in prison is hard .”

“By the way, do you know who you kidnapped?”

The gangster raised his head in confusion. His mind had already begun to be disturbed by them.

“This female lawyer is the daughter of Green Company which has a lot of relationship with Navi

Company and Dakings Group...”

The female lawyer was not very threatening, but he had heard the names of these powerful companies

before . The gangster began to hesitate.

The two policemen looked at each other, knowing that this trick would work for him, and then

continued, “ You have always heard of Dakings Group. Do you think you can compete with this

company with the strength of a few of you?”

“It doesn’t matter if you are in jail, but what about your family? What about your parents?”

The police drew closer to him, with a low tone, “Aren’t you afraid that they will be retaliated?”

The gangster suddenly clenched his hands and his face turned pale. The police were right. He still had

his family which was right in City H, and he had a newborn child!

He was nervous and asked a little worried, “If I tell you all, can you keep my family safe?”

“Yes, but you must tell us the truth. Stop wasting our time.” The policeman started taking dictation.

“I say, I will tell you everything I know, but you must promise the safety of my families.” The gangster

didn’t care about his own safety but his family was his only weakness.

“Go ahead. Who instructed you to kidnap her?”

“It’s David, our boss’s assistant. We followed his order.” Now the gangster had been conquered by the

police and disclosed everything he knew.

“That is to say, Chuck undertake illegal tasks but asked David guide you all to carry out?”

“Yes.”

“The red paint case was done by you?”

The gangster hesitated for a moment and nodded, “We did it but it was also instructed by David.”

“This task was also taken by Chuck?”

“Correct.”

“Do you know who gave the money and asked Chuck to do this?”

The gangster shook his head and said, “Sir, we have no right to know what goes on above.”

On the other side, the conference room.

Several Sirs in charge of this case are trying to come up with an idea to arrest Chuck.

“Our emphasis is on interrogating those gangsters. As long as they confess that they are instigated

by Chuck, we can go arrest him.”

“The problem is that they have the same confession and nothing else.”

One of the policemen took off his police cap and said, “Wait, Charles and the others have already

changed the method and conducted a second interrogation.”

“Our senior takes this matter seriously, and Director Liu asked us to deal with it properly.”

“As long as there is an order, the police ambushing around Chuck’s nest can go to contain him.”

“Now we have to wait with patience.”

For a moment, everyone was silent.

The landline on the table suddenly sounded. Captain Li picked it up and listened, “Captain Li, someone

has already confessed that it is indeed Chuck who instigated them.”

Captain Li smiled with satisfaction, “Well done. Immediately notify Slater to arrest Chuck!”

“Yes!”

It was quiet and dark before daybreak.

Chuck was busy packing up valuable things. Even if he escaped, he didn’t want to let go of any

valuable thing.

“This imitative Han Jade from Qianlong period is extremely valuable.”

He put them one by one in the suitcase, and his eyes glowed every time he looked at the treasure.

The police ambushing outside were ready. As soon as they received an order from their superior, they

would immediately take action.

Mr. Bruce, after answering the phone, smiled triumphantly. He picked up the walkie-talkie, and said to

everyone, “Attention, the senior has just given the order. Arrest Chuck and bring him to justice!”

“Roger!”

All policemen cheered themselves up and surrounded Chuck’s house from all sides.

Mr. Bruce rushed directly to the gate and pried open the door with a wire. Then they rushed into the

house.

At this time, Chuck had packed his luggage and was ready to escape in the middle of the night.

“Don’t move!” The police rushed in, holding black guns one by one and pointing at Chuck.

Chuck didn’t expect them to act so quickly. Facing the police, he was not nervous and raised his hand

calmly, “Sir,what’s wrong?”

Without saying anything, Mr. Bruce directly put handcuffs on his hand, “You know that.”

Looking at the suitcases next to the two sofas, Mr. Bruce sneered and said, “It seems that you are

ready to abscond!”

Chuck pretended to be innocent, “Sir, I just want to go on a vacation. Anything wrong with it?” He

sighed inwardly. The police brazenly dared to take him away, which meant that they must be confident

to testify against him.

“Vacation? Take your time at the police station.” Mr. Bruce winked at his men and said, “Take him

away.”

Mr. Bruce looked around and gave an order to the rest of his men, “You stay here and search. We’ll

take him back to the station.”

“Roger.”

Everything went well. After bringing Chuck back to the station, Mr. Bruce interrogated Chuck overnight.

In the interrogation room, Chuck sat lazily in a chair and said, “Sir, you need evidence to arrest

someone.”

Mr. Bruce put six confessions which all proved that Chuck had instigated others to do some kidnapping

on the table, “What one person said may not mean anything, but the six persons you sent had the

same confession, and they already admitted that it’s you who instigated them. Can this be fake?”

Chuck looked at the confessions on the table in amazement, staring at each word, and as soon as he

stretched his hand forward, the confession was taken back by Mr. Bruce, “Chuck, I advise you to be

frank.”

Chuck kept calm and still insisted, “I didn’t do anything.”

“You didn’t do it, but you ordered it so you are the mastermind!” Mr. Bruce insisted.

Chuck frowned, “No. Not me.”

“Then you are an accomplice.” Slater was crushing his willingness step by step.

“No, I’m not!” Chuck patted the table excitedly, “I just collected money and did business. But I didn’t

succeed to kidnap the target so the charge of kidnapping others cannot stand.”

Mr. Bruce breathed a sigh of relief, “Chuck, you finally confessed.”

The voice recorder recorded their conversation all the way, and even the colleague who took dictations

had recorded what he said.

Chuck was very upset after he realized that he had been hit by Mr. Bruce’s trick.

Mr. Bruce turned the pen in his hand and said, “Although the crime has not been committed, it is an

attempted kidnapping. But the severity of the crime depends on you.”

Of course, Chuck understood what he said. Slater wanted him to confess Jean Barnes but...

There was a trace of entanglement in his eyes. He was wavering.

“To shield offenders, you will be doubly guilty. But if you truthfully confess the accomplice, you can get

a lighter sentence when you are sent to prison.”

Chuck lowered his head in silence.

“Think about it. You have to go to jail but she has a good life with impunity. Do you feel comfortable?”

Mr. Bruce looked at him with bright eyes. He knew that people were selfish, and they didn’t want others

to live better than themselves.

“I say, Jean, gave me 300,000 yuan to kidnap and arrange my men to gang rape the woman,,

photograph it and send the video to her.” Since he had to go to jail, he didn’t want Jean to get better.

“Is there evidence to prove it?”

“I have a remittance record.”

“Very good!”

At this moment, a Sir knocked on the door and walked in, holding a sealed bag with two photos in it,

“Mr. Bruce, we found it in Chuck’s house.”

Chuck stared at the two photos and panic appeared in his eyes. Even a thin sweat hung on his

forehead.

Mr. Bruce put these two photos on the table, “Why are there these photos?”

“I don’t know!” Chuck denied it. Material © NôvelDrama.Org.

“You don’t know?” Mr. Bruce hummed softly, “You don’t know or you dare not to admit it?”

“I really don’t know,” Chuck refused to admit it, and then he had an idea. He said, “I know, this must be

hidden by my woman.”

Mr. Bruce obviously didn’t believe what he said.

“This woman is actually concealing a picture of a man without my knowledge. She must have

cuckolded me.”

“Chuck, are you looking for an excuse?” Mr. Bruce had an instinct that there was a lot behind the

person in this photo.

“Every sentence I say is the truth. He must be her mistress.”

The police knew that Chuck wasn’t going to tell them the truth. They had no choice but to take him into

custody first and then conducted a second interrogation.
