113: Chapter 113 A man who isn't a bit of a playboy in his youth has wasted his life!

After three days and three nights of interrogation.

The Public Security Brigade had successfully finalized the evidence of illegal crimes for seventy-six suspects.

But there was one person in particular who gave the entire Public Security Brigade a massive headache.

Xia Jie.

A girl who claimed to be nineteen, but was actually only seventeen years and nine months old.

No matter how they questioned or interrogated her, she refused to open her mouth.

Even when Wu Ming personally took the field, she remained tight-lipped.

"You can remain silent, but we can still penalize you even without a confession!"

Wu Ming slammed the table, shouting at her in frustration.

Xia Jie remained consistently indifferent.

"Stubborn and beyond reform!"

Wu Ming stood up from the interrogation desk, leaning his hands on the surface as he roared again: "Currently! Multiple victims have already testified that you intentionally transmitted STDs to them!"

Xia Jie suddenly burst into laughter, her face filled with endless contempt: "If they weren't lusting after my body, how would they have caught the 'plum blossom' disease?"

"According to Article 360 of the Criminal Law, anyone who engages in prostitution while knowing they suffer from syphilis, gonorrhea, or other serious STDs constitutes the crime of spreading STDs. They can be sentenced to a maximum of five years in prison, criminal detention, or public surveillance, along with a fine!"

Xia Jie: "I didn't sell anything. They were the ones who actively hit on me!"

Wu Ming's eyes narrowed. He sat back down and gestured to the Police Officer beside him before looking at Xia Jie: "Tell us the specifics, and we'll strive to get you leniency!"

"Heh heh heh, Sir, you don't need to trick me. I won't fall for it. I don't know anything, and I won't say anything!"

"You—!!"

Wu Ming's fury flared up again.

"Then you can just stay here!"

Wu Ming rose from his seat again, preparing to walk out of the interrogation room.

"Wait a minute."

Xia Jie suddenly called out.

Wu Ming turned around and glared at her.

"Can you call Yang Tian over? I want to see him!"

Wu Ming immediately responded: "Is our Public Security Bureau's great deity someone you can just see whenever you want?"

"If he comes over, I'll tell you everything!"

Wu Ming's expression jolted as he asked sternly, "Are you sure?"

"Sure!"

Having received an affirmative answer, Wu Ming walked out of the interrogation room and immediately dialed Fang Yihong's number.

After explaining the situation, Fang Yihong retorted directly.

"Didn't we agree that we'd catch them and you'd interrogate them? Why involve Yang Tian?"

"That girl said that as long as she sees Yang Tian, she'll confess."

"???"

Fang Yihong asked doubtfully, "She couldn't have fallen for Yang Tian, could she?"

"How would I know!"

"Fine, Yang Tian is still sleeping. I'll talk to him once he wakes up."

—

Ten o'clock in the morning.

Yang Tian came down from the dormitory building on time.

Fang Yihong had been wandering around the Police Station's courtyard and office hall. When he saw Yang Tian, he immediately jogged over to explain the situation.

"Don't worry, if you don't want to go, I'll call and refuse Captain Wu right away!"

"I'll go!" Yang Tian agreed without hesitation.

Fang Yihong gave Yang Tian a surprised look, thinking to himself that this kid couldn't have taken a liking to that girl too, right!

That would not be a good sign.

Where else would he find a girl as excellent as Zhang Jingque if he let her down?!

Sigh...

Forget it.

A youth without romance is a youth wasted.

Fang Yihong reminded him: "Then go and come back quickly. I've asked the auntie to stew some Gastrodia and pigeon soup for you at noon."

"Okay."

Arriving at the Case Handling Center.

When Yang Tian walked into the interrogation room, Xia Jie was leaning back against the Tiger Chair with her eyes closed, resting.

Her plain white short sleeves accentuated her shapely figure.

Hearing the door open, she abruptly opened her eyes to look at Yang Tian, and the coldness on her face suddenly gained a hint of warmth.

"You were looking for me?"

Yang Tian sat down at the interrogation table and asked Xia Jie.

"Yes," Xia Jie responded softly.

"Then go ahead, what do you want with me?"

Xia Jie looked directly at Yang Tian and asked, "Do you want to hear my story?"

"Go on."

"Do you have a cigarette?"

Yang Tian pulled a pack of soft golden saint from his pocket and lit one for her.

*Click.*

Yang Tian lit one for himself as well.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

Xia Jie took a puff and coughed violently, tears being choked out of her eyes.

"It really is strong, quite a kick!"

She said with a tearful smile, "Tell those two sirs to step out for a moment!"

Yang Tian glanced at Wu Ming, and Wu Ming along with the other Police Officer walked out of the interrogation room.

The door closed.

Xia Jie looked at Yang Tian and asked, "Did you ever date when you were in school?"

"I did in university."

"And the result?"

"We broke up!"

"Why?"

"There!" Yang Tian pointed to the Assistant Police Officer badge on his uniform: "Because I'm just a contract worker!"

"But don't you have a City Bank Supreme VIP card?"

"I picked that card up."

"..." Xia Jie's expression froze for a moment, and then she suddenly understood.

[This guy is actually quite honest, he just told the truth directly!] — This was Xia Jie's inner thought.

So she took another puff of the cigarette and asked, "Then why does everyone in the Public Security Bureau respect you so much?"

Yang Tian chuckled, "You and your 'sisters' are all in here; don't you know why yet?"

"Then you're pretty badass!" Xia Jie exhaled a plume of blue smoke, looking just like those delinquent students in school who liked to hide in the toilets to smoke secretly.

As tears were choked out again, Xia Jie's emotions suddenly became immersed in her own world. After a good while, she flicked the ash and spoke slowly.

"I used to think that dating during school was cool!"

"I always felt that the person I met must be a Prince Charming!"

"He wasn't very tall, but he was very handsome—the 'bad boy' kind of handsome. He had a stud in his left ear. When we were in school, he would always appear in front of me for no reason."

"He was a poor student from the ordinary class next door, but many girls liked him. Love letters filled his drawer, but he liked to shove them all at me to see, saying he only liked me."

"He would buy me milk tea to apologize after teasing me."

"He would also stand up for me when other girls bullied me."

"He liked taking me to the arcade to catch dolls, taking me on roller coasters, cycling, and going to see the deserted sea..."

"He said he wanted to make vows of eternal love with me, until the end of time!"

"Heh heh heh heh..."

Xia Jie propped her forehead with her palm and laughed mockingly.

"We had sex many times. The first time was in a private cinema, the second time was at his house, the third time was at my house..."

"But since we started having sex, he began to distance himself from me. He wouldn't reply to messages and often went missing."

"Once after school, I followed him to a nightclub. A hostess from the nightclub took him home!"

"I only found out later that long before he met me, he had already been involved with that hostess. He was only with me to get back at her."

"Because the hostess had cheated on him!"

"Heh heh heh heh, he's already dating a hostess, yet he still cares which man she's with. He really is pathetic!"
