Chapter 746 - 689: How Many People Have You Killed?
Interrogation room.
He Wei was tightly bound in the interrogation chair, yet his expression conveyed a kind of comfortable contentment, as if he were in a casual meeting with his subordinates during normal business operations.
Compared to the stone-faced police interrogators often dealing with ferocious criminals, He Wei’s demeanor was calm and collected, which gave him a rather imposing air.
"Let’s hear it, what’s your purpose in wanting to see us?" Tao Lu was not taken in by He Wei’s antics; he had seen many big shots before. He Wei had merely killed a few people and was still evasive, which might be startling but hardly intimidating in modern society.
He Wei relaxed into a smile, "Don’t be tense. I intend to confess truthfully, but before I do, I just want to confirm whether you have the ability to catch the culprit. I wouldn’t want to sell myself out only for you to close the case directly."
"Do you still not know whether we have the ability?" Tao Lu was somewhat energized. Since He Wei had mentioned this, he must be ready to spill something, even if only to amuse himself with some fabrications. And for the police, any word from a suspect was information.
"How did you find me?" He Wei’s gaze shifted toward Jiang Yuan. A police officer had briefly introduced him earlier on, and Jiang had appeared as the chief investigator.
Tao Lu spoke out of turn, "You don’t need to know that. Right now, it’s your turn to give a statement, not the other way around."
If possible, the police would rather not give the criminal suspect any information at all.
The notion of equal rights to information between parties, as seen in the legal systems of Europe and America, did not align with domestic judicial practices.
