353: Chapter 353 What a close call! Hopefully, it's still possible.

As he spoke, Qin Chuan dangled a Pixiu pendant in his hand, swinging it back and forth...

It looked casual, but the number one target sitting in the interrogation chair felt their mind slightly jolt the moment they glanced at the Pixiu pendant.

This was, of course, an illusion. After Qin Chuan saw that he had noticed the swinging Pixiu pendant, he activated the system's "Mind Confusion" function.

"I will ask you one more time: what is your name? I advise you to honestly confess everything."

A scene that shocked everyone unfolded.

The number one target sighed and said with a bitter expression, "I know that falling into your hands won't end well. Since that's the case, I will confess everything."

Through the one-way glass, Bureau Chief Gu Hanlin and Director Du Qingbo exchanged glances, both seeing the joy in each other's eyes.

Comrade Qin Chuan is amazing!

He cracked the suspect's mouth open so quickly.

Wei Xinglong and his team were assisting with the interrogation.

Seeing Qin Chuan sitting there and beginning to interrogate the number one target, to be honest, they hadn't held much hope at the beginning.

Who would have known...

Things would turn out this way. After just a few words, the suspect was spilling everything like beans pouring out of a bamboo tube.

Noticing the swinging Pixiu pendant in Qin Chuan's hand, Wei Xinglong guessed to himself: Is Secretary Qin using hypnosis? Many hypnosis masters do this—swinging an object back and forth, and then you enter a hypnotic state.

If it wasn't hypnosis, everything happening before him couldn't be explained. Yes, it must be hypnosis, and a rather advanced form of it, too.

After making this assumption, Wei Xinglong began to record everything diligently himself.

Every time Qin Chuan interrogated someone, it was eye-opening; every question he asked hit the nail on the head. Almost everyone from the Guangdong Provincial Public Security Department was full of admiration, including Wei Xinglong.

Now, his mindset had undergone a complete transformation.

When he first met Qin Chuan, seeing someone so young holding such a high position, his first reaction was that he had gotten there through connections. Now, he completely rejected that assumption; the man could sit in that position because of his outstanding ability—it was entirely based on merit.

The entire interrogation room was very quiet, with only the sounds of Qin Chuan asking questions and Kubo Kenichi answering them.

Because he had used the system to check up on this Kubo Kenichi and knew all his circumstances, Qin Chuan picked out the valuable questions to ask, as the "Mind Confusion" function only lasted for 30 minutes.

After asking several questions and allowing the Guangdong Provincial Public Security Department to grasp quite a few clues, Qin Chuan asked:

"You just said that the production of counterfeit money is not within the borders of Guangdong Province. So, where do you receive the counterfeit money? I want to know the time, the location, and the method of reception."

I am truly sorry.

You will have to imagine the process yourselves.

...

Bureau Chief Gu Hanlin, Director Du Qingbo, Qin Chuan, and several other leaders from the Guangdong Provincial Public Security Department were all stationed in the command hall, monitoring the situation of the operation on the front line.

Wei Xinglong was not one to sit still. How could he miss such a major operation? He had volunteered, and after receiving approval, he had already taken a team of men straight to Black Stone Beach.

Some leaders from the Provincial Public Security Department looked at the time from time to time, and also occasionally glanced at the situation transmitted back by the high-definition screens.

They thought to themselves: So close, the time is so tight, I hope it's not too late.

It really was a close call. Fortunately, Secretary Qin Chuan had managed to ask for the time and location of their counterfeit money reception; otherwise, they would have missed it, as they were set to receive another batch of counterfeit money at 12 o'clock tonight.
