Chapter 12: You Must Earn Merit by Catching the Fraudsters

Xiao Yuchu and the female police officer with the surname Yan arrived at the hospital.

"Don't be afraid; the police are here to protect you. They won't hurt you. Go let the doctor examine your body."

Officer Yan's gaze shifted to Xiao Yuchu's legs, which bore many bloodstains.

"Officer Yan, it's really not necessary, truly. Wang Chuan and the others aren't fraudsters; I just borrowed a place to stay."

At this moment, Xiao Yuchu regretted deeply, feeling that her single sentence, "I don't know these two fraudsters," had caused Wang Chuan to be arrested.

"Go in!" Officer Yan said gently.

After more than ten minutes, Xiao Yuchu came out and saw the female doctor who had examined her whispering with Officer Yan. This book is first published on TTKS. tw, a smooth reading experience with no errors and no disordered chapters.

Officer Yan let out a breath, "Good!", walked to the side of the corridor, took out her mobile phone, and made a call, "Director Li..."

The two walked out of the hospital. Officer Yan started the police car, turned her head to look at Xiao Yuchu in the passenger seat, and sighed: "Xiao Yuchu, what a fortunate thing."

Xiao Yuchu roughly understood what was happening: she was a minor, carrying a huge sum of money, and had injuries, so she needed to be taken to the hospital for further examination.

"Xiao Yuchu, you minor child, why are you carrying so much money and taking a long-distance bus across the province alone?"

Xiao Yuchu pondered inwardly whether she should tell them about her brother's matter.

Wang Chuan had proven that her brother hitting someone was false. If she told the police, would the fraud gang harm her brother's life and safety? Thirty thousand yuan isn't much; if she gives the money, her brother can be released.

"Officer Yan, do you have a mobile phone charging cable?"

Having made up her mind, Xiao Yuchu asked.

Suddenly, Officer Yan's phone rang.

Wang Chuan entered the interrogation room, and his handcuffs were removed.

"Think carefully about how to confess truthfully later."

Creak, Officer Li finished speaking, left, and opened the door, leaving Wang Chuan sitting alone in the interrogation room.

Wang Chuan deduced that Officer Li must be going to Officer Lu's side to interrogate Li Wei first; interrogations involve at least two people. When he first entered the police station, he glanced around and saw no other police officers.

This kid Li Wei, I wonder if he can explain things clearly. Ordinary people at a police station often can't even speak properly under normal circumstances.

When encountering a matter involving numerous documents and not knowing where to start.

The simplest method is to follow the timeline, linking various documents together, thereby presenting the full picture of the facts.

About half an hour passed, and Wang Chuan saw Officer Li and Officer Lu enter.

"Your accomplices have all confessed; you don't need to speak."

After Officer Li finished speaking, he, like Officer Lu, remained silent, looking at Wang Chuan sternly.

If an ordinary person entered a police station and went into an interrogation room.

Seeing the cold interrogation chair from TV dramas, the police officers in uniform, alive and right beside them, they would tremble when speaking.

Officer Li's words just now would also make their hearts tremble and panic immensely. Oh my god, what does it mean that accomplices have confessed, and I don't need to confess?

In his past life, Wang Chuan, as a lawyer, had dealt with the police many times, so his heart remained completely calm, especially since he had committed no crime.

Looking up at Officer Li, he thought that over the past half hour, the police should have verified the authenticity of his and Li Wei's identities, and the hospital examination confirmed that Xiao Yuchu's body had not suffered any harm.

They must have interrogated Li Wei and should know that the thirty thousand yuan on Xiao Yuchu was to save her brother. Although a junior high student carrying a huge sum across the province to save her brother is their first reaction of being baffled.

They still need to interrogate, so it seems they still have doubts.

Could it be, first, the mobile phone hasn't been charged yet, so they couldn't call Xiao Rongyue's mobile phone to confirm this matter; or perhaps Xiao Yuchu herself hasn't yet mentioned her brother being defrauded.

Second, if it's not abduction or fraud, why did Xiao Yuchu follow them home? They are two strong male college students.

It doesn't make sense; they are waiting for my answer.

Wang Chuan, emotionally stable, spoke word by word: "Officer Li and Officer Lu, I'm afraid my classmate is scared and can't explain clearly. I'll just tell you what I did from waking up today until returning to my hometown in Xinzhou. You can interrupt me."

A flash of surprise appeared on the faces of Officer Li and Officer Lu.

Is this kid entering a police station for the first time? So calm?

That Li Wei next door was so scared he spoke incoherently, repeatedly saying that little girl was a fraudster and repaid kindness with ingratitude, saying nothing useful.

Wang Chuan briefly finished speaking in five minutes. Regarding the Iron Dragon Restaurant incident, he only mentioned that there was forced buying and selling of overpriced boxed meals; he did not mention his act of saving someone.

Throughout the entire process, the two officers did not interrupt, and their expressions became increasingly interested.

Wang Chuan concluded: "I have no motive. A medical student with a bright future, for a mere thirty thousand yuan, to abduct a minor and do it on a whim on a bus, doesn't make sense, does it?"

Officer Lu finally spoke: "You know quite a bit, knowing about motives. Motives are inherently subjective and vary from person to person."

"The little girl trusted you so much and went home with you. Why didn't she tell you her real name? This shows she still doesn't trust you. Why did you make her distrust you?"

Officer Lu, matching his own speculation, indeed raised the question of why she went to live in their home.

After hearing this, Wang Chuan originally wanted to refute, thinking, "It's normal for a little girl to tell us a fake name; after all, we met by chance."

But he felt the persuasiveness was insufficient and self-contradictory; if they met by chance, why would Xiao Yuchu dare to live in his home?

He proposed they go to his home out of concern for Xiao Yuchu's personal safety; in his past life, she had been his wife.

In some mysterious way, Xiao Yuchu also agreed to live in his home; at that time, he should have let her stay at a hotel.

Officer Lu's deduced logic was: Xiao Yuchu gave a fake name, showing she didn't trust us; yet she went to our home, indicating we used abduction tactics.

Wang Chuan smiled slightly: "My classmate has a smell of tobacco, which she dislikes, so she told Li Wei a fake name. She trusts me; she told me her real name is Xiao Yuchu."

Wang Chuan immediately distinguished himself from Li Wei. Knowing her name is Xiao Yuchu proves she trusts me; going to my home further proves she trusts me even more.

Officer Lu was stunned for a moment, pursing his lips. How does this kid know her name is Xiao Yuchu? Could it be that what he said is true?

Officer Li frowned slightly.

"I also know her Identity Card number, 330109..... She trusts me very much. She asked me to assist her in saving her brother."

"Her brother?" Officer Lu revealed a hint of ambiguous meaning.

Seeing this, Wang Chuan realized that neither Xiao Yuchu nor Li Wei had mentioned Xiao Rongyue's matter.

So he continued: "She told me she came to Xinzhou because her brother called saying he hit an old lady in Xinzhou and asked her to come deliver medical expenses. Last night, I took her to Xinzhou People's Hospital to inquire, and there was absolutely no car accident involving an old lady."

"I speculate her brother was coerced into making the call. Cases of relatives hitting people to scam money must be quite common; both officers should know about this, right?"

Officer Lu, who seemed to have only recently started work, sounded a bit urgent: "You're full of it. That tip-off call was made by her brother."

Wang Chuan suddenly understood: "No wonder. The person who reported us knew Xiao Yuchu's name and also knew she was a minor. Xiao Yuchu is nearly 1.6 meters tall; from a distance, she doesn't look like a minor, right?"

"So it was her brother, Xiao Rongyue. Xiao Rongyue trusted me and told me his name is Xiao Rongyue."

Officer Li walked out of the interrogation room and made a call: "Yanzi, did Xiao Yuchu mention anything about her brother? What, her Mobile Phone is off and needs a charging cable? Hurry back to the station and check every desk."

"Officer Lu, if you want to earn a merit, you can catch the fraudsters."

"The fraudsters might have seen Xiao Yuchu following us after we gave her money. With 30,000 yuan gone, they were furious, so they coerced Xiao Rongyue into calling to report us."

Wang Chuan said.
