Unbelievable! The Blond Rookie Is the Chief Detective - Chapter 38

But he saw his father standing behind the counter, lost in thought. The cigarette in his hand had burned out, and he was oblivious to the ash falling on the counter.

She thought her father was tired, so she told him to go home and rest.

But after his father went back to his room for a while, he came out again, seemingly carrying something in his arms.

She asked her father where he was going so late, but he didn’t say. He just told her to stay put and not wander off.

She sat behind the counter, increasingly feeling something was amiss; her father had been acting strangely lately.

No matter how much my older sister caused trouble in the past, my father never scolded her, although he would sometimes get a little impatient.

But no matter how hard or tiring it was, he never suggested sending his sister to a nursing home.

But recently, not only has he mentioned it several times, but she knows that her father has not only mentioned it, but has also secretly visited several other places.

He was determined to send his sister away.

He was particularly agitated tonight, as if he had something on his mind.

She felt increasingly uneasy, so she went to her father’s room and found a letter he had left for her.

She was told to take good care of her sister in the future, and the envelope contained the nursing home she had found and the family’s savings book.

“I also found a nude photo of my sister in my father’s room, but we had already destroyed them. It must be those people who broke their promise and are now trying to extort money from me with the nude photo.”

My father kept it from me all along; I knew nothing, and I even blamed him for treating my sister badly.

Xiaoli was sobbing uncontrollably on the phone.

Su Xiaoxiao comforted her, “Don’t cry, explain clearly what happened and how you were saved.”

“When my dad went out, he had something in his pocket. I just checked, and one of the kitchen knives is missing. Officer Su, I’m so scared. I’m so afraid my father will do something stupid. Please, please save him.”

“Don’t panic. Tell us which direction your father went, by car or on foot?”

Su Xiaoxiao had already turned on speakerphone, Ye Jiuzhou paid the bill, and the group quickly got into the car while listening.

Xiaoli only knew that her father went out on his motorcycle; she knew nothing else.

Ye Jiuzhou called back to the team and asked them to locate Huang Man’s phone. He also contacted the traffic management department to check public transportation surveillance footage to see if they could find Huang Man’s exact location.

Huang Man parked his car on the side of the road, got out and entered the park. He stopped next to a rockery. With no one around, he took out a thick envelope from his pocket and stuffed it into a small hole in the rockery.

He then turned and left, riding his motorcycle northwards.

A figure emerged from behind a tree, stared at the motorcycle’s retreating silhouette with a disdainful smile, and turned to walk towards the park in the center of the street.

Walking to the artificial hill, I reached in and found an envelope in a familiar spot. I weighed it in my hand, and just as I was about to put it in my pocket, I thought for a moment, opened the envelope, and took out the contents to look at them.

“Damn it, you dare to play me for a fool! I’ll teach you a lesson you won’t forget!” He angrily threw the envelope on the ground.

At that moment, a figure suddenly rushed out from the shadows; it was Huang Man, who had returned.

He deliberately rode a motorcycle today so that people behind him would see that he had left on a motorcycle.

However, he didn’t go far. He abandoned his car on the roadside and ran back on foot, wanting to see who had been causing them trouble all these years.

He glared at the man in front of him through gritted teeth. “Hammer, it was you! You’re the one who took nude photos of my daughter and ruined her like this?!”

“So what if it’s me?” Hammer was initially startled, but then relaxed. “You dare mess with me today? Believe me or not, I’ll throw your daughter’s nude photos all over the streets tomorrow.”

Huang Man’s face turned bright red, and his hands clenched into fists.

Hammer was still not satisfied and poked Huang Man’s face with his finger. “What? You’re still not convinced? Hurry up and get the money ready, or else… damn it, you dare to hit me!”

Huang Man punched Hammer in the face. Hammer reacted quickly and fought back, and the two started wrestling.

Huang Man was no match for the young and strong Hammer. He was quickly pinned to the ground by the hammer, and he used one hand to resist while reaching into his clothes with the other.

Suddenly, several figures rushed over and quickly separated the two.

“Police, don’t move!”

Su Xiaoxiao pressed down on Huang Man’s hand holding the knife. Fortunately, they arrived in time, and Huang Man hadn’t pulled the knife out yet, otherwise things would have been troublesome.

Both of them were taken back.

They were just looking for a breakthrough when Hammer delivered himself right to their doorstep.

In the interrogation room, Ye Jiuzhou looked at the hammer.

“Hammer, huh? What’s your real name?”

“Captain Ye, don’t you already know? I’m He Weidong, it’s not like we’ve never met before.” Hammer grinned.

“He Weidong, this is your third time in jail, isn’t it? You’re pretty impressive. Tell me, what were you doing at the park tonight?!”

“I didn’t do anything, just wandered around aimlessly.”

“Then how did they start fighting?”

“I don’t know, I just encountered a rabid dog biting people, and I was defending myself!”

“Self-defense, huh? Then take a look at this.” Ye Jiuzhou handed Huang Man’s phone to Hammer. “This message was sent by you, right? [Prepare 20,000 yuan and put it at the usual place at 11 PM tonight. If you don’t obey, you know the consequences.]”

You know what this is all about, right? It’s extortion!

“How could I dare? Captain Ye, I was just joking with Huang Man, and he took it seriously. See, it’s all a misunderstanding!”

“Stop talking nonsense! You stuffed nude photos into people’s homes, extorted money from them, and you still dare to say it was a misunderstanding? Do you think we police officers are three-year-olds?!”

“Did you take that envelope? Do you have your fingerprints on it? Do you have your fingerprints on the nude photos? Don’t you have any self-awareness? With your level of competence, how dare you even try to get by? Will you confess voluntarily or wait until we have solid evidence? The consequences will be different. Think it through!”

“Captain Ye, I’ll confess, I’ll confess. I was just short of money lately and wanted to get some money from Huang Man, but who knew he wouldn’t listen. The envelope was just filled with paper, and I didn’t get any money.”

“He Weidong, this isn’t the first time you’ve approached Huang Man like this, is it? He still has all the text messages on his phone. Deleting yours won’t help; we can still recover them. I advise you not to treat us police officers like fools. Don’t you understand the principle of leniency for confessing?!”

“Okay, okay, I’ll confess. I approached Huang Man three times in total. The first two times he only asked for 10,000 each time, and this time he asked for 20,000, but he tricked me and I didn’t get it. This amount can’t be attributed to me, right?”

“What about three years ago? You took nearly 400,000 yuan from Huang Man, through illegal loans and extortion. Who should be held responsible for that?!”

“No, Captain Ye, I didn’t do that. I wouldn’t have the guts.” Hammer hurriedly waved his hands.

“Who did that?!”

“I have no idea.”

“If you don’t know, then where did you get those nude photos? If you don’t explain clearly, then everything that happened three years ago will be attributed to you.”

In the monitoring room, Su Xiaoxiao and Wan Yan watched Ye Jiuzhou interrogate someone. Ye Jiuzhou was not a captain for nothing; he was quite skilled at interrogation, especially when dealing with small-time thugs like Hammer.

Hammer couldn’t withstand the attack and quickly confessed.

He stole the photo.
