“Spill it, who sent you?” the pale-faced man asked .

“I… I really came to steal . No one’s ordering me,” the thief said in agony .
He hadn’t expected to be so unlucky when he decided to come in and steal something . Now, he had been caught by someone, and the person seemed to be bad .
The pale-faced man did not speak . He took out a folding knife and waved it in front of the thief’s eyes . It shone brightly under the light .
With a sploosh, it went straight into thief’s thigh . “Ah!”
“That’s just the beginning,” the pale-faced man said . “Scream softer, or I’ll cut your tongue off . ”
“Mmph . ” The thief was gritting his teeth and twitching with pain .
“Tell me, who sent you,” the pale-faced man said .
“No one, really,” the thief said . “I just heard that there was a lot of cash in the manager’s office, so I came here . ”
“Who said that?” the pale-faced man asked .
“Someone I don’t know,” the thief replied .
“Did he tell you that himself?” the pale-faced man asked .
“No, I heard them talk about it when I was eating in a restaurant,” the thief replied . “I’m really just a thief . You can go to the police station to check it . I have a record . ”
He felt dizzy when he saw the blood flowing from his thigh . When he had been caught in the past, at most he would be beaten and sent to the police station . The current situation had never happened . He had been imprisoned and stabbed
The pale man didn’t speak . His eyes were fixed on the thief, which made the thief’s heart bristle .
Sploosh! The knife was buried into another thigh . Another scream rang out .
“Tell the truth,” the pale-faced man said .
“I’m telling the truth! I swear!” the thief yelled in agony .
“A thief like you swearing?” the pale-faced man asked . “Only ghosts would believe it!”
“I didn’t lie to you,” the thief said . “I really didn’t lie to you . ”
“Well, originally, I want to let you leave alive but forget it,” the pale-faced man said .

The thief was stunned . The smell of urine wafted out . He couldn’t help but pee himself out of fear .
The lights in the basement suddenly went out . There was a thud and not another single sound .
When the lights came on again, there were several police officers and the original two men in the enclosed space . The bound thief still had a knife in his thigh . The pale-faced man was lying on the ground unconscious .
“What’s this situation?” an officer asked .
“Ask the doctor to come and see what’s going on with them first,” another officer said .
The forensics team soon arrived . The two men were alive, but they were both in a coma . The bound one had lost a lot of blood, but it was not fatal .
“What caused the comas?” a police officer asked .
“I’m guessing something like ether,” a forensic team member said .
“So, there must have been a third person here,” the police officer said .
“Yes,” the forensic officer replied .
“Maintain the scene and look for evidence,” the lead police officer said . “The injured one will be sent to the hospital, and this one will be handcuffed . ”
“Hey, isn’t this the serial thief?” A police officer pointed to the man tied to the chair .
“Do you know him?” the lead police officer asked .
“Yes, he’s a serial thief,” the other police officer said . “He’s been caught several times . I think his name his Lu Xiucheng . ”
Out of the two men originally in the room, one was taken to the hospital, and one was sent to the police station .
Somewhere in Dao, Jia Zizai puffed out a cigarette smoke ring and said, “I didn’t expect this . Is it him?”
“No one saw you when you attacked, right?” Hu Mei asked .
“No . I was wearing a mask,” Jia Zizai said . “They wouldn’t know who I was even if they had seen me . ”
“That’s good,” Hu Mei said .
In the police station, the man who was handcuffed woke up without any panic . After looking around and making sure that he was in the police station, he began to think about how to deal with the possible interrogation .

“An old hand,” a police officer said after seeing his actions from the monitoring equipment .
“Yes, I just checked his ID card . It’s forged,” another police officer said .
“Fake?” the first police officer asked .
“Yes, I have reported it to the leader and applied for help from the superior department to further expand the scope of the investigation,” the other police officer said . “Could this person be a wanted major criminal?”
“Let’s question him first,” the first police officer said .
“Sure,” the other police officer said .
“Name,” the first police officer said .
The handcuffed man looked up at the two police officers and remained silent .
“What’s your name?” the police officer asked again .
There was still no answer .
“Do you think we can’t find out who you are if you don’t reply?” the police officer asked . “You are suspected of kidnapping and intentionally hurting people . If you want to get out, it’s impossible . Just come clean!”
The man remained silent . He was very calm . He was thinking about who could’ve attacked him so quietly . He had set up an alarm device outside the basement . The other party was an expert .
The first interrogation by the two police officers had failed .
“Look after him,” the lead police officer said . “Don’t let him shut his eyes tonight . ”
“Got it,” another police officer said .
A lamp was shining in the man’s eyes . He quietly sat as if he were a sculpture . A few hours later, he was in the same position .
“Well, he’s pretty good at enduring,” the lead police officer said .
“An old hand indeed,” a police officer said .
“By the way, has his blood sample been taken?” the lead police officer asked .
“Not yet,” the other police officer replied .

“Arrange for people to take it,” the lead police officer said . “Analyze his DNA and go to the database for comparison . ”
“OK, I’ll arrange it right away,” the other police officer said .
When someone came to take blood samples for him, the pale-faced man’s expression quickly changed .
“Look, his face has changed,” the lead police officer said . “He must have done something else . We better hurry up!”
In the hospital, the stabbed man had been sent to a separate ward for isolation by the police .
“Tell me what happened?” a police officer asked .
“Well, I just went to get something from that trading company,” the man replied .
“Is that your company?” the police officer asked .
“No, I…” The injured man hesitated .
“Going in to take something that is not yours, perhaps?” the police officer asked .
“Well yes, I was going in to steal,” the man said .
“What did you steal?” the police officer asked .
“A bag of diamonds and $100,000,” the man said . “I think that was it . ”
“How did you get kidnapped?” the police officer asked .
“I don’t know,” the man said . “I was stealing, but the light in the office suddenly turned on and I saw the man . He knocked me out . When I woke up, I found myself tied to a chair in a dark place . He stabbed me and asked who sent me to steal . ”
“Who sent you there?” the police officer asked .
“I… No one sent me there,” the man said . “I had gone there to simply get some money to spend . ”
“How did you know there was money there?” the police officer asked .
“It is a trading company,” the man said . “Besides, it was the general manager’s office . I’ve been keeping an eye on it for several days . There’s no one there at night . There’s just an old man watching the door, not even a security guard . ”
“Go on,” the police officer said .
“He stabbed me in the thigh with a knife, and then the light suddenly went out,” the man said . “I fainted . When I woke up again, I saw the police . You came at the right time!”
For the first time, he realized that the police weren’t so bad .
“So, are you saying that a third person knocked you out?” the police officer asked .
“Well, I guess,” the man hesitantly replied .
“Think again, is there anything else?” the police officer asked .
“There’s no more,” the man said .
“Alright, take care of your injuries and let me know if you think of anything useful,” the police officer said .
“Alright, got it,” the man said .
The thief had no intention of saying anything more . It would be disadvantageous for him if he spoke more . Especially in the face of these veteran investigators and interrogators, one sentence might have fatal loopholes .
The night passed . The next morning, a police officer got some interesting news that he shared with the lead police officer on the case .
“Boss, there is a major discovery,” he said . “Through a DNA comparison, this man is likely to be the killer in the massacre in Lan last year . ”
“What?” The lead police officer froze . “Last year’s Lan City massacre?”
“Yes,” the other police officer said .
Last August, a family in Lan was massacred . Five members of the family had been killed . One of the two bodyguards died, and the other one had been seriously injured . There was no useful evidence left at the scene . There was only the blood of an eighth person . It had been a major case .
For that reason, the city of Lan had asked the Ministry of Public Security for help . They had cooperated with experts for more than three months . However, no trace of the criminal had been found, and no suspect was identified . It became an unsolved case .
The lead police officer hadn’t expected that in Dao, thousands of miles away, they would’ve caught the suspect who was most likely the criminal suspect of that massacre .
“Get in touch with Lan immediately,” he said .
“OK, I’ll do it right away,” the other police officer said .
The people in Lan were also shocked when they heard the news . They immediately arranged personnel to confirm it .
