Chapter 504: Don

Accompanied by a huge "Bang".

Chen Wu's small truck collided intimately with a viaduct pier, deforming the front of the vehicle.

Chen Wu, who was in the driver's seat, was knocked unconscious by the deploying airbag.

He had underestimated the difficulty of handling a large vehicle and overestimated his own driving skill; failing to control it, he crashed into the pier, nearly destroying the car and killing himself, but the airbag deployed in time and saved his life.

This capture operation was surprisingly smooth; with little effort they apprehended the Chen brothers and recovered the child they had abducted.

Just as the police officers handcuffed the Chen brothers and, with the rescued boy, prepared to leave for the Police Station, the buyer who had arranged a trade with them arrived.

During this operation, the officers, to avoid alerting suspects, parked the police cars near the highway exit Chadaokou instead of directly at the self‑built house, so the buyer coming for the trade was unaware that police were inside.

After parking, the buyer walked to the self‑built house's doorway; the door was unlocked and there was movement inside, so he simply pushed it open and entered, muttering as he did.

"What's up with you two brothers lately? In a week you've gotten a child, and you make me travel so far? If you weren't old acquaintances I wouldn't have come, this is trouble, I won't…"

Before he could finish, the buyer was stunned.

Standing before him were dozens of police officers in uniform, while the Chen brothers, who had dealt with him many times, each wore a Silver Bracelet and stared at him with bewildered faces.

"Damn!" he blurted his catchphrase, and seeing the unfavorable situation, the buyer turned and fled without a word.

The officers were also taken aback: good grief, they just captured two traffickers, and now a buyer walks into his own net—buy two, get one?

But before the man could run two steps, Wang Dachuan chased him and kicked his backside, sending him flying far away.

After the kick, Wang Dachuan, imitating Xu Mo's style, turned gracefully, clapped his hands, and said calmly, "Handcuff him."

But the scene Wang Dachuan imagined—colleagues praising his skill for taking down a criminal with a single kick—did not occur.

Because… his kick not only failed to knock the criminal to the ground and briefly incapacitate him, it instead sent the criminal far away.

At this moment, the officers' looks toward Wang Dachuan carried a hint of disdain.

"Are you trying to catch someone? Aren't you just making our capture harder!"

Chen Ke even gave him a thumbs‑up.

"You really are something, a 'saving lives' kick, huh?"

Wang Dachuan: "???"

What 'saving lives' kick?

He turned his head and was stunned.

The man not only wasn't knocked down by the kick; instead, he used the force to run far away.

"Stop! Or I'll fire!" At that moment, Xu Mo shouted.

The buyer, who had already run to the car and was about to get in and flee, froze the instant he heard the words.

He didn't want to die, and didn't think he could outrun a bullet.

He stopped, and Xu Mo continued, "Raise both hands, don't move. My bullets don't have good eyesight."

"No, no, no, don't shoot, I promise I won't move!"

The buyer kept his word; after raising his hands he stayed motionless, not even daring to turn.

Seeing this, Xu Mo gave Wang Dachuan a look.

"Go ahead, handcuff him."

Wang Dachuan pulled out the Handcuffs from his waist, jogged over and cuffed him; after securing the man, he sneered into his ear.

"We didn't bring guns for this mission at all, got duped, huh? Can't kill you… haha, fool."

Buyer: "???"

He turned to look at the officers behind him, with a look as if he'd swallowed a fly.

He couldn't believe that these broad‑eyed, thick‑browed officers, who seemed utterly upright, would lie!

But it's too late now; he's already cuffed and can't run.

"Chen Ke, take a few officers, drive his car to our parking spot, and bring all the police cars over," Han Fei said, pointing at the car the buyer had driven in.

"Alright." Chen Ke boarded the car with several officers.

Soon, the officers who had left earlier returned in several police cars, picking up Han Fei, Xu Mo and the others waiting there, and left.

On the way back to the Police Station, Xu Mo called the rescued boy's father to relay the good news.

……

Police Station.

The captured Chen brothers and the buyer were each taken to three separate Interrogation Rooms to await questioning.

In fact, it was already certain that the Chen brothers would face legal punishment, because the officers timed it perfectly, seizing both the perpetrators and the evidence, so even without their Confession Statements they could convict them.

The reason they still needed to interrogate them is that the buyer's remarks upon entering revealed that this was not his first deal with the Chen brothers.

That is, the Chen brothers have trafficked more than one child; trafficking a single child versus repeatedly trafficking children carries different criminal nature and sentencing standards.

The police need to determine how many child‑trafficking cases the two have participated in, so they can properly charge them and impose the appropriate punishment.

Of course, another purpose is that, if possible, the police will rescue all children ever trafficked by the Chen brothers and return them to their parents.

"Which one do you want to interrogate first?" Han Fei asked Xu Mo.

Xu Mo blurted out, "That big bald guy, he doesn't look very smart… he should be a breakthrough point."

"Then let's start with him." Han Fei nodded; he thought the same.

The two went to the Interrogation Room where Chen Wen was being held.

"Chen Wen, right? You…"

Before he could finish, Chen Wen, seated in the interrogation chair, cut Xu Mo off.

"No need to ask, I won't say anything."

Hearing that, Han Fei and Xu Mo exchanged a glance, thinking the fool wasn't as dim as he seemed; he still had a bit of sense.

Xu Mo suddenly recalled something.

When he and Chen Ke went up to the second floor to catch someone, Chen Wen seemed to be deleting something; after finishing, he let out a relaxed sigh as if he had just completed something very important.

Could it be that what Chen Wen deleted on the computer were the transaction records with the buyer?

"When I went to catch you, I saw you seemed to be deleting something on the computer. What did you delete?"

"No! I didn't delete anything! I didn't delete anything at all!" Hearing this, Chen Wen's emotions instantly flared.

The things he deleted are things no one should see; this matter can't be admitted even under threat of death!

Xu Mo saw at a glance that Chen Wen was lying to himself; he was telling a falsehood.

"I saw it all; you still say you didn't delete anything?"

"No, I really didn't delete anything; you must have misread, I didn't…"

Before Xu Mo could speak, Han Fei said beside him: "Why waste words with him? Didn't you bring that computer back when you cleared the scene? Just restore the records he deleted, and that's it. Restoring deleted records should be easy for you, right?"

Hearing Xu Mo say that, Han Fei roughly guessed that what Chen Wen deleted must have been the backup of the transaction records with the buyer.

Xu Mo is a computer expert; restoring what was deleted on a computer is certainly not difficult for him. He estimates it would take just a few minutes—wouldn't that be much faster than an interrogation?

Chen Wen: "???"

Restore deleted records? That's damn impossible!

"I can! I can, don't underestimate my computer skills; I can do anything!"
