Chapter 373: He Confesses Right Away?

As a colleague in the same police station, Chen Ke has witnessed Xu Mo's abilities.

Before Xu Mo came to their police station, Chen Ke was extremely headache‑stricken over this kind of rolling‑knife meat, because there was simply no way to handle such a person, especially when there was no evidence to convict them, which made it even more of a headache.

But after Xu Mo arrived, that situation vanished.

Rolling‑knife meat? It doesn't exist!

Xu Mo is precisely the person who can subdue rolling‑knife meat; he can easily make the other party confess.

Although Chen Ke doesn't know how Xu Mo does it, Xu Mo can indeed accomplish it.

"Xu Mo has a way? What way—could it be… torture for confession? That's illegal, can't do that!" the officer thought Xu Mo's method was torture, and immediately admonished him earnestly.

Chen Ke hurriedly shook his head: "No, no, what are you thinking? It's not torture; it's… ah, I don't even know how to put it, but just watch, Xu Mo has a way, you'll see in a moment."

A few officers from the Lütengshi Police Station stood nearby, watching the spectacle.

They didn't believe a single word of Chen Ke's words.

When looking at Chen Ke, their expressions seemed to say, "Talk on, keep talking, I'll just quietly watch you show off…"

They've seen plenty of rolling‑knife meat like Lin Tian, and in their view, getting Lin Tian to truthfully admit his crimes is almost impossible.

Especially since this case is from ten years ago; the clues and traces from back then have long disappeared, and they have no evidence at all.

As long as Lin Tian firmly insists he didn't commit the crime, convicting him is virtually impossible.

As for Lin Tian voluntarily confessing… that would probably be too much.

In this situation, refusing to bite the bullet leads to no trouble, but biting it means ending up in a big prison; Lin Tian obviously doesn't want to go to prison, after all, he's not stupid!

Inside the Interrogation Room.

Li Yunfei was somewhat annoyed, yet he still had no method to handle Lin Tian.

The person just wouldn't speak; without a word, even if he concluded that the Lin Tian before him was a murderer, he could only stare helplessly.

With no other choice, Li Yunfei looked at Xu Mo beside him, hoping to see if Xu Mo had any clever tricks.

As the saying goes, you can't catch a wolf without a child; Xu Mo gritted his teeth, pulled a tube of truth‑serum from the System Space and hid it in his palm, then slowly rose and walked toward Lin Tian seated in the interrogation chair.

He hadn't originally intended to use this move; after all, the truth‑serum was nearly exhausted, and Xu Mo was a bit reluctant.

But now it was unavoidable; they had no evidence, and to solve the case they had to find a way to make Lin Tian voluntarily confess.

"What are you doing? I warned you not to act recklessly!" seeing Xu Mo approach without saying a word, Lin Tian became a bit panicked.

Inside the Interrogation Room, Li Yunfei stared blankly at Xu Mo's back, thinking, "What is Xu Mo doing? He can't really be planning torture, can he? That interrogation method is illegal!"

He hurriedly stopped Xu Mo, saying, "Xu Mo, don't act recklessly, it's unnecessary."

"Don't worry, I have restraint; I won't do anything to him."

The officers outside the Interrogation Room were also stunned, turning to Chen Ke: "Xu Mo really isn't going to torture him, right?"

Chen Ke smiled and waved his hand: "Rest assured, Xu Mo works with restraint; he can't carry out torture, just watch."

"Nonsense!" the Lvteng City Police Bureau officers exclaimed, "Stop him inside; this is our jurisdiction. If he tries torture here, we'll also be implicated!"

Having said that, several of them left the one‑way glass on the side of the Interrogation Room, intending to circle around to the door to stop Xu Mo from acting recklessly.

However, when they circled back and entered the Interrogation Room, they were stunned on the spot.

In the blink of an eye, the Lin Tian who earlier seemed as unafraid as a dead pig in boiling water now honestly confessed!

"Tell me honestly, Xu Jing, did you kill her?"

"Yes, I killed Xu Jing."

The officers: "???"

Li Yunfei: "???"

What's going on!?

Just a moment ago Lin Tian was slacking off, shouting that he wanted a lawyer, and now he directly confesses?

The officers who rushed to the Interrogation Room rubbed their eyes, thinking they were hallucinating.

They should know that from the one‑way glass at the side of the Interrogation Room to inside was only a few steps, taking less than twenty seconds.

In such a short time, how did Xu Mo manage to make Lin Tian confess? What method did he use?

Torture? That doesn't fit either.

They hadn't heard any screams just now, and besides, it was only a dozen seconds; even if Xu Mo actually struck Lin Tian, it couldn't have been more than a few blows, so Lin Tian's attitude couldn't change that quickly!

Though they didn't know what happened inside the Interrogation Room, the officers' intuition told them Xu Mo must have done something.

With that in mind, several of them couldn't help but look at Li Yunfei, who had witnessed everything inside the Interrogation Room.

"What just happened?"

Li Yunfei shook his head with a bewildered expression: "My mother chicken…"

"What just happened? Who am I supposed to ask! I'm baffled too!"

Like Li Yunfei, the few officers outside the Interrogation Room who came with him to Lütengshi to investigate also witnessed the whole process through the glass.

Yet they were equally bewildered; although they saw the whole thing, they still had no idea what actually happened.

They only saw Xu Mo approach Lin Tian, whisper a sentence into his ear, and when Xu Mo later asked Lin Tian whether he had killed Xu Jing, Lin Tian immediately confessed.

What exactly did Xu Mo say into Lin Tian's ear?

And just a brief sentence could make this rolling‑knife meat Lin Tian prefer to go to prison rather than refuse to confess on the spot??

The bewildered officers glanced at Xu Mo inside the Interrogation Room, then looked at Chen Ke beside them.

Realizing the officers' gazes were on him, Chen Ke shrugged, "I already said Xu Mo has a way; I wasn't wrong, right? Did Lin Tian confess?"

"Do you know what sentence he whispered into Lin Tian's ear just now?"

"This… I actually know!" Chen Ke thought for a moment, then nodded: "He had said this sentence in previous interrogations, it's simple, just eight characters: lenient for confession, severe for resistance, but it seems only when he says it does it work; others say it to no effect."

Officer: "???"
