Chapter 59 A Slap on the Face (1/2)

”Er...” The pudgy expert had nothing to say, but he was obviously more thick-skinned than the man with glasses. He ignored Qin Haodong and turned to Chuanxiong and said, ”Captain, give us another five hours, and we will certainly be able to elicit the truth.”

”You are kidding, 24 hours will be over soon. How can I give you five hours?”

Nalan Wuxia said sulkily, for she didn't like the two experts at all. If they had not come out to make trouble, Qin Haodong would have solved the case.

The pudgy expert said self-righteously, ”So what, it's reasonable to add a few hours in such an important case, and no one will know about it...”

Fang Chuanxiong bowed his head and meditated. On the one hand, he really wanted to solve the case. On the other hand, he also knew that it was against discipline to detain a person for more than 24 hours without evidence.

Just as he hesitated, the door opened and a man in a high-class suit and gold glasses came in.

”I am Bai Xu, the lawyer of Jiangnan Law Firm. My client is being questioned by the Criminal Police Unit. Who is in charge of the case, please?”

Wang Jianfeng's face changed slightly at the sight of Bai Xu. As the captain of the Jiangnan Criminal Police Unit, he dealt with this man a lot.

Bai Xu was well-known in the judicial circle of the whole region of Jiangnan. First of all, he had a strong professional ability. He was proficient in various laws and was good at finding loopholes in laws. Secondly, he had no bottom line. He can defend any kind of person as long as he got the money.

Unexpectedly, the hatchet man had hired him. It seemed that today's case was getting more and more difficult.

Although it was in the Jiangnan Criminal Police Unit, Fang Chuanxiong naturally was in charge of the case since he had the highest position.

He said, ”I'm Fang Chuanxiong, the one in charge. You can talk to me.”

Bai Xu opened his file bag and took out a small book and several pieces of paper toward Fang Chuanxiong. ”Officer Fang, this is my lawyer's card and the proxy letter of attorney of the family members of my client.”

He was very professional to show the relevant documents first. He said to Fang Chuanxiong, ”Officer Fang, as a lawyer, I want to see if my client had been tortured to extort confessions or overtime trial.”

The pudgy expert was dumbfounded. Just as he was preparing for an overtime trial, the lawyer came.

Fang Chuanxiong frowned, and before he could answer, the door opened with two middle-aged women coming in.

”Excuse me, we form Association for the Protection of Women and Children. We heard that a one-year-old child was involved in your investigation. We want to verify whether any improper treatment of children had been done...”

Then two more people came in, carrying the camera in their hands. ”Hello, we are reporters of the TV station. We heard that the Criminal Police Unit is handling a drug-related case. We want to make some follow-up reports. Have you found any evidence now...”

Things were getting worse and worse. Not only the two experts but also Fang Chuanxiong's eyebrows were locked into a knot.

Behind the hatchet man was a drug trafficking group with huge financial resources. It was not surprising that they could make use of the power of society, so what lay ahead was a dilemma.

If the drug trafficker was released in this way, not only the whole Jiangnan Public Security Bureau would be discredited, but also he would lose face. But if they didn't let him go, they would be violating the law under the supervision of so many people.

Bai Xu smiled coldly and said, ”Officer Fang, when did my client come to the Criminal Force Unit to be questioned? How much time to go before the 24-hour period is up?”

”Er...” Fang Chuanxiong looked at his watch and said, ”There are still ten minutes left.”

Bai Xu asked again, ”Well, do you have sufficient evidence to prove that my client is guilty so that you can take further criminal coercive measures? Otherwise, you have to release him immediately?

Faced with the aggressive lawyer, Fang Chuanxiong felt extremely dejected, but there was nothing he could do. He sighed helplessly and said to Wang Jianfeng, ”Let him go!”

A sense of triumph rose in Bai Xu's mouth. As long as he could take the hatchet man out, he would receive a large amount of money.

Just then, a voice came out, ”Don't let him go.” It was Qin Haodong who said calmly, ”Let me help, we can't let the drug trafficker get away under our eyes.”

Fang Chuanxiong frowned. In his opinion, the young man was a troublemaker. He said discontentedly, ”Nonsense, even if you understand the interrogation, you can't elicit the result in ten minutes, let alone you don't understand at all.”

”You're talking about other people, but I'm different,” Qin Haodong said with arrogance. Now that he had decided to help, he did not hesitate at all and went straight to the interrogation room.

Fang Chuanxiong was about to stop him when Wang Jianfeng whispered in his ear, ”Doctor Qin is really good at hypnosis. Anyway, there are only ten minutes left and there is no loss in trying it.”

Fang Chuanxiong thought for a while. Since they couldn't turn the tide in 10 minutes. Why not make every possible effort. He agreed, ”Okay, let him have a try.”

See Fang Chuanxiong agreed, Wang Jianfeng and Nalan Wuxia also followed into the interrogation room.

Bai Xu said, ”Officer Fang, as a lawyer, I have the right to see if my client will be tortured or treated inhumanely during the interrogation process.”

The two women from the Association for the Protection of Women and Children also said, ”We also want to see if you will protect the legitimate rights and interests of children during the interrogation process.”

Fang Chuanxiong looked at the reporter's camera next to him and said, ”The interrogation can't be disturbed. Come with me to the monitoring room.”

Then he took the lawyer and the journalists to the monitoring room. The big screen there showed everything in the interrogation room clearly.

The three of them entered the interrogation room and saw a young man of about 30 years old pacing with a little boy of about one year old in his arms. Possibly for the sake of the little boy, he wasn't locked on an iron stool.

At the corner of the interrogation room, there was a huge suitcase, in which dozens of bags of milk powder were neatly placed.

Qin Haodong went to pick up a bag of milk powder and looked at it. It was marked with foreign letters but not English, supposedly it was produced in Burma.
