Chapter 37: Interrogation

"What else can we do? We've already broken all four of his limbs. Even if he's as tough as he claims, he can't run. Later, we can simply say it was accidental injuries sustained during the fight."

Zhang Xiaofan looked at the fallen Scorpion and said casually.

"Big Brother, calm down first. We still need to squeeze information out of him, like details about the Polar Bear Company. Without his limbs, he has no hope of survival anyway."

Zhang Chu'an hurriedly advised.

After a while, the Scorpion slowly opened his eyes, realizing not only was he bound, but his clothes and pants had vanished without a trace.

He saw three people standing before him; one of them was rubbing his hands together with a lecherous expression. The Scorpion, having traveled north and south, was well-traveled and experienced.

Mercenaries often have perverted personalities; there are plenty of them, and naturally, some are interested in men. The lecherous expression on Zhang Chu'an's face was exactly the same as those men.

The Scorpion suddenly realized he too had things to fear. He was willing to abandon his integrity for money and his life, but the thought of losing his chastity was something he couldn't bear.

Zhang Chu'an gently stroked the Scorpion's face and said affectionately, "Baby, don't be nervous. I'll be very gentle in a moment."

"No, don't come over! I have money, lots of money. I can give you all my money. Please, do not do anything rash!"

The Scorpion cried out in terror; he would rather be cut into a thousand pieces than suffer such torture.

Zhang Chu'an sneered, "You have money? What money do you have? Were you sent here by the Polar Bear Company to be a bodyguard for a man named Liu Haisheng?"

Guo Jing quickly chimed in from the side, "Your whereabouts were sold to us by the Polar Bear people long ago, and your money was withdrawn by them. What can you possibly give us?"

After Guo Jing finished speaking, he stared at him with bright, intense eyes. To protect his chastity, the Scorpion quickly pledged his loyalty:

"I am an excellent warrior. I can serve you."

"If you are such an excellent warrior, how did you let us catch you so easily?"

Zhang Xiaofan retorted on the spot.

"Besides, why should we trust you?"

Zhang Chu'an immediately asked.

"I can tell you all the intelligence I know about the Polar Bear Company. Once you know it, you can devour the Polar Bear Company in one stroke."

To save his chastity, the Scorpion unhesitatingly betrayed his former employer.

Seeing this, the three exchanged a smile; their operation plan was complete.

On the other side, Director Wen and Nie Huaishang, accompanied by Wang Yadong and a large contingent of police personnel, headed for the seaside.

On the way, Wang Yadong curiously asked Nie Huaishang, "I made this secret passage very discreet. How did you know about it and discover it?"

"If you want no one to know, you must not do it yourself. I have my own methods, but why should I tell you?"

Nie Huaishang asked back calmly.

Wang Yadong realized he was out of place and stopped asking further; as for the Scorpion's fate, he no longer cared.

The person in front must have stationed enough manpower at the emergency exit; no matter how powerful the Scorpion was, he couldn't escape with wings or without them.

At this moment, on the chat group, Zhang Chu'an was complaining about the Scorpion.

Zhang Chu'an: "Is this a top-tier assassin? I just slapped his face to scare him, and he confessed everything."

Guo Jing: "You call that scaring him? Zhang Xiaofan and I both thought you were going to do it for real."

Zhang Chu'an: "To deal with people like this, you must not only let them know you have no bottom line but also let them know you are a pervert."

Nie Huaishang: "A pervert? It seems the methods Zhang Chu'an used were extraordinary."

Guo Jing: "Forget it, you'll understand once you get here."

When Nie Huaishang personally arrived there, he seemed to understand what Zhang Chu'an meant by the word "pervert."

The female comrades in the group immediately turned their heads away, blushing with shame, while Director Wen and Wang Yadong beside Nie Huaishang wore complex expressions.

They truly never expected the Scorpion to be treated this way, hanging naked on a tree like that.

Director Wen, facing the three of Guo Jing who were walking toward him, stammered and asked:

"Why did you do this?"

Such a scene was beyond the expectations of everyone present.

Facing the shocked looks of the crowd and Director Wen's questioning, Zhang Chu'an explained with a sheepish smile:

"Isn't it because the Scorpion is too cunning? To prevent him from escaping and to squeeze information out of him, we had no choice but to do this."

At this moment, the Scorpion, hanging on the tree, realized that the three men were all police officers, and their previous actions were merely to scare him.

But now it was too late; he had confessed everything. Moreover, having fallen into the hands of the police, given the crimes he had committed in the past, death was inevitable for him.

The personnel behind immediately escorted the Scorpion into a police car, while Nie Huaishang and the others followed Director Wen in a vehicle heading to the police station.

"Truly unexpected. We prepared for so long, yet you know more and understand more than us."

Director Wen's words carried three parts envy and seven parts praise.

"You're too polite, Director Wen. We just stumbled upon the emergency exit by accident."

Guo Jing said modestly.

Hearing Guo Jing's words, Director Wen laughed heartily:

"Alright, this is your capability. You don't need to be modest. I'll call your military region leadership right now to commend you."

After dialing He Zhijun's phone, he informed him of the situation here, such as the live capture of Scorpion Ruan Wenxiong and the intelligence on the Polar Bear Company.

Relying on this intelligence, they would deal a devastating blow to the Polar Bear Company.

On the other end of the phone, He Zhijun was extremely excited after hearing this; he never expected the four of them to actually succeed.

He Zhijun said to the orderly beside him, "Call Squadron Leader Gao and Chief of Staff Fan to my office."

A while later, Fan Tianlei and Doghead Gao arrived at He Zhijun's office. Upon entering, they saw the regiment commander with a joyful expression.

Seeing the two walk in, He Zhijun wasted no words and got straight to the point:

"I called you here today to tell you some good news. Scorpion Ruan Wenxiong has been captured by Nie Huaishang and the others."

"Really?"

Fan Tianlei shouted excitedly. It was no wonder he was so excited; his old comrade and son had both died at the hands of the Scorpion, and Fan Tianlei's hatred for the Scorpion was overwhelming.

And Old Gao, the dog-headed man beside him, was also shocked; after all, that was the infamous Scorpion.

The police had laid out their trap for so many years without catching Scorpion, yet Nie Huaishang and his team caught him in less than two months.

Moreover, judging by the Captain's words, they had extracted intelligence on the Polar Bear Company, and soon they would uproot the Polar Bear Company entirely.

Nie Huaishang truly did nothing unless he acted, and when he did act, he made a stunning impact.

Black Cat and his K2, Scorpion, and the Polar Bear Company were all internationally renowned presences.

Fan Tianlei, agitated, pleaded with He Zhijun: "Captain, I want to go to the police station to see him; I want to execute Scorpion personally."

Fan Tianlei's tone was filled with hatred toward Scorpion.

Seeing Fan Tianlei so resolute, He Zhijun did not refuse; instead, he said, "Old Gao and I will go with you, and we'll also congratulate our four great heroes. Without them, Scorpion might not have been caught for who knows how long."
