Chen Bin returned to the interrogation room. He wore a lax face as he wasn't worried now since Captain Fang was there to support him. He looked at Jiang Xiu with pity. There was no doubt that he would become a scapegoat. "Confess, okay? It's useless to stay tight-lipped…"

"We already know everything."

"What do you mean? Are you trying to frame me?"

"We never frame a good person, but also never let a bad person off." Chen Bin leaned forward and lowered his voice, "The kidnappers have already confessed."

"That you're their colleague."

Jiang Xiu narrowed his eyes. So you're really trying to frame me, huh?

"The punishment might be lenient if you plead guilty but it'll be worse if you don't."

"Brat, stop putting up a facade."

"Confess obediently."

"What do you want me to confess when I haven't done anything?" replied Jiang Xiu.

"Stop the crap. Your colleagues have already confessed everything. They have ratted you out, so it's useless for you to resist."

"What did they rat out?"

"Don't act stupid. The kidnappers have already admitted that you're the mastermind."

In fact, those kidnappers were in another interrogation room in a frightened state right now, screaming there's a ghost and what not.

Jiang Xiu got really interested, "So you're saying it's useless whether I confess or not?"

Chen Bin replied in a gloomy voice, "Yes!"

"Only, your sentence will reduce if you confess."

Jiang Xiu muttered to himself before asking, "How many years?"

"If you are able to get a lenient sentence, maybe around 3-4 years?"

"You sure you won't regret if I confess?"

"Hahaha…"

Chen Bin felt like he could already see himself sitting in the captain's seat. There was no way he would regret it. "Catching criminals is the duty of the police. We wouldn't regret it even if there are repercussions."

"Alright, I'll confess…"

Chen Bin was exalted after hearing this. He thought that Jiang Xiu would prolong it by skirting around the edges and though he had closed long cases down before, it would require a lot of money and effort. It was also risky to do that. It was best for the criminal to confess as there are zero risks this way.

He felt that the youth in front of him was indeed tactful.

"Are you ready to speak now? Alright. Tell me everything in detail. Who incited you to do this? Don't miss out a single detail…"

"I'm really a kidnapper. The person who incited us to kidnap Xiao Xuetong is called Old Gu…"

"How did you communicate with him?"

"Through the cell phone. The number is 158…"

Chen Bin realized that this business was indeed fishy after hearing everything. He felt delighted that this brat was really a kidnapper. He was just trying to make him the scapegoat but wasn't expecting his false accusation to be true. He was sure he'll get promoted this time. He had already worked hard under the Deputy Captain post for seven years. Seven years were now gone from this life because he didn't have a background or achievements. By saving Xiao Xuetong, he had lifted the face of Jiang City's, no, the entire Jiangnan province's police force. It made sense that he would definitely get promoted.

"Why did your car have an accident then…"

"Internal strife due to uneven shares of the profit…"

So it was indeed this. Chen Bin continued, "Alright, that makes sense. Continue…"

After a few minutes, Chen Bin appeared at Captain Fang's office.

"Captain Fang, he has already confessed. This is the mastermind's phone number, 158…"

"Good. You have done well."

Captain Fang passed down the order, "Lock on to the cell phone's location immediately."

Such was the way Fate played with men. The phone number Jiang Xiu had given was none other than Secretary Gu's private number which he had given to him. The police would have locked on to his residence in Jiangnan if he had returned to Hang City and wouldn't have dared to act recklessly, but unfortunately, Secretary Gu had decided to stay over for a night in Jiang City due to some matters.

"Captain Fang, we have locked onto the cell phone's position…"

"It's at Haojiang Grand Hotel."

"Chen Bin, lead the squad personally and go capture the criminal. Make no mistake while executing the plan…"

"Yes…"

The police cars whistled down the roads and arrived at Haojiang Grand Hotel. Chen Bin contacted Captain Fang again. To know the location accurately, they needed to call the number.

Captain Fang called the number. If it were Secretary Gu's public number in Jiangnan's border region, no one would have picked up the phone as it was already night time. But this was his private number, so he picked it up while in a dazed state. "Hey…"

Before he could say anything, Captain Fang's solemn voice came through from the other end, "Hello, Old Gu…"

The voice was filled with ridicule.

Secretary Gu couldn't remember anyone who spoke to him in this manner and thus made a scowl. He got furious as he was woken up from his slumber due to this, "Who are you?"

"Who am I? Hahaha…"

Captain Fang laughed to the fullest. He got a notice that Chen Bin had already locked onto the cell phone's exact position. "I'm investigating a kidnapping case right now, and we have found that you're involved in this case. Better match with us accordingly or else…"

Secretary Gu was enraged, "Or else what?"

"Don't you know what kind of crime kidnapping is? You can get sentenced to over 10 years…"

"Alright! Come to catch me then!" Secretary Gu had never felt so angry ever. He felt as if he would explode from the anger but still kept a calm tone. No one could imagine the fury in his heart right now.

"I'm in Room no. 1331, the Presidential Suite in Haojiang Grand Hotel…"

Captain Fang was stunned then immediately recovered his senses. He had never seen such an arrogant kidnapper who openly declared his location.

"This Daddy will do that then…"

Chen Bin, who was waiting outside the room got the order from Captain Fang to break in!

After the call ended, Secretary Gu was filled with anger. He couldn't believe that some idiot had pulled case onto his head.

Secretary Gu had already decided to fire these groups of bastards after returning to Hang City tomorrow.

Bang!

The door of the hotel's presidential suite was blown open. Secretary Gu was startled. He then looked as fully armed police squad barged inside.

"Don't move…"

Deputy Captain Chen Bin rushed in and pushed Secretary Gu to the wall heroically. Secretary Gu couldn't move even if he wanted to. He was already old, and due to being handled so roughly, he could only shriek miserably.

"Stop screaming…"

Deputy Captain Chen Bin smashed the gun's base on Secretary Gu's head, making him lose consciousness.

"Take him away!"

Deputy Captain Chen Bin's heart was filled with unfathomable heroic emotions. He had rescued the hostage, arrested the culprit and perfectly dealt with this case.

He went out and pumped his fist up towards his colleagues.

Secretary Gu was taken into the police department in such a way for the first time ever in his entire life. His fury had already reached an unimaginable degree. He would've blown these group of scoundrels away if he had a grenade in his hand.

His face was wholly ashen with a dreadful calm.

Just like the calm before the storm.

He got placed in a cell where people stood along with him. He was pretty familiar with the procedure. This was the way the police recognized the criminal with a witness's help.

And Deity Xiu was that said witness, "You really caught him."

Chen Bin sneered, "Did you think he's so powerful that we can't catch him?"

"You overestimate him too much."

Deity Xiu really wishes to praise him a lot, "You're quite efficient."

Through the glass, Jiang Xiu saw an old man in his fifties, with grizzled hair and a white sleeveless shirt. He also had a bump on his head. Who else could it be if not Secretary Gu?

He was in a miserable state right now. He had a dead look on his face and didn't even wear shoes. Just moving caused a sting of pain.

"Which one is Old Gu?"

"Point him out!"

Jiang Xiu pointed towards Secretary Gu blatantly, "It's him. He's the one who incited me to kidnap Xiao Xuetong."

At this moment, Captain Fang had arrived at the office. He was filled with glee. The Jiang City Hall had called him just now and promised him a big reward. So he immediately arrived at the police department to keep full focus on this case.

"How did it go?"

Chen Bin replied excitedly, "We got the right person! Everything's done!"

Captain Fang nodded satisfactorily and looked at him with an appreciative gaze, feeling that this person was pretty good and planned to recommend him for a promotion. Also, he wanted to see who was actually so arrogant to declare his location to come to grab him.

When he came in front of the viewing glass and saw Secretary Gu standing among the criminal line, his mind became mush as if his brain got squashed into pulp. He was stupefied. The cigarette between his fingers fell to the ground with a thud sound.

Though Chen Bin didn't know Secretary Gu, Captain Fang knew him. He felt his entire world collapse at this moment.

"It's him, he's the mastermind…"

Mastermind your sister.
