"Wu Tian, how did you do it?" Lin Min stared at Wu Tian in shock.
She couldn't understand how her severe illness could be cured with just a couple of touches from Wu Tian.
It was too miraculous.
Wu Tian smiled and said, "I can't tell you that. If I say I can cure you, then I can cure you. I'm not bragging at all."
Lin Min nodded, "Yes, you're truly amazing. I'm quite impressed."
"Alright, alright," Wu Tian raised his hands. "Now that your illness is cured, you can cuff me."
Lin Min was slightly taken aback and hesitated.
Initially, she had found Wu Tian utterly detestable and wished to send him to prison immediately.
However, Wu Tian had saved her life and hadn't made any inappropriate advances, which made her curious about him.
She looked at Wu Tian and asked, "Wu Tian, tell me honestly, did you really assault the old lady?"
Wu Tian replied, "Why do you keep bringing that up?"
"If I say I didn't, then I didn't. If you don't believe me, there's nothing I can do!"
Lin Min pondered for a moment, then shook her head, "No, I've decided to believe you."
"You definitely didn't assault the old lady. This was all a misunderstanding."
Wu Tian was surprised by Lin Min's sudden change in attitude.
He smiled and said, "What's wrong? Did you fall for me because I cured you?"
Lin Min's face instantly flushed red. She bit her lips tightly and said, "What are you talking about? Don't say such things."
After saying that, she herself seemed a little stunned.
Not to mention Wu Tian, even if any other man made such a joke with her, she would have been angry.
But when Wu Tian said it, she wasn't angry at all; instead, there was a hint of playful coquetry.
She didn't know what was happening to her, but her mind was filled with the image of Wu Tian touching her chest earlier, which made her heart flutter.
She shook her head in annoyance and then added, "I just think you're a good person, and you wouldn't do such a thing."
"There's something fishy about this. I'll report it to the director."
Wu Tian breathed a sigh of relief. Finally, the injustice against him should be cleared.
Just then, the door to the interrogation room was pushed open.
Seeing the person who entered, Lin Min quickly straightened up and said respectfully, "Hello, Director!"
Director?
Wu Tian turned his head and saw a woman walking in.
This woman appeared to be nearly forty years old, but surprisingly, she was very well-maintained, looking graceful and exuding feminine charm.
Her name was Zhao Hong, and she was the director of the police station in this precinct.
She walked up to Wu Tian, glanced at him, and then frowned, "Who unlocked his handcuffs?"
Lin Min replied, "Director, I unlocked his handcuffs."
Zhao Hong immediately said sternly, "Lin Min, how could you privately unlock a suspect's handcuffs during an interrogation? Don't you know the rules?"
Lin Min, startled, quickly nodded, "I'm sorry, Director, but I had my reasons for doing so."
She whispered, "I think this person might not be guilty. We might have made a mistake."
"Made a mistake?" Zhao Hong's expression became even more somber.
"Lin Min, I assigned you to interrogate him to get him to confess, not to exonerate him!"
"How can you be a police officer? If you continue like this, you won't have a job anymore!"
Lin Min immediately dared not speak.
Zhao Hong continued, "Alright, you can leave now. Go back and write a 3,000-word self-criticism. I'll handle the interrogation of this person."
Lin Min wanted to say something, but she feared Zhao Hong's authority. So, she gave Wu Tian an apologetic look and left.
Zhao Hong re-cuffed Wu Tian and said coldly, "I didn't expect you to be so capable, managing to bewitch our police officer."
"Someone like you indeed deserves to be sent to prison for reform!"
Seeing the director arrive, Wu Tian stopped wasting time and directly said, "Director, haven't you made a mistake?"
"I've never done such a thing. Why did you arrest me?"
"Insolence!"
Zhao Hong's interrogation style was different from Lin Min's. She slammed the table heavily, and her authority filled the interrogation room.
"You've been brought here, and you're still saying this?"
"Let me tell you, we've conducted a thorough investigation. It was you who assaulted the old lady. No matter what you say, it's useless!"
"Sign the confession letter later, and it will save everyone time."
"If you have a good attitude, I can help you get a reduced sentence. If you maintain this attitude, you'll be rotting in prison!"
Wu Tian hadn't expected to meet someone even more unreasonable than Lin Min.
He glared and said, "What kind of investigation is this? It's completely baseless. How did you come up with this?"
"Let me tell you again, I've never done such a thing."
"If you continue to accuse me like this, I'll sue you for defamation!"
"You have quite the nerve!" Zhao Hong stood up and lunged towards Wu Tian, attempting to slap him.
"You dare to question us? Do you have any regard for the law!"
Although Zhao Hong's slap was blocked by Wu Tian's hand, it still landed with a loud sound.
At this moment, waves of anger surged within Wu Tian.
With his strength, mere handcuffs were no obstacle, but this was a police station, and he couldn't act out.
If he were to lose control, something that wasn't an issue would become one.
He glared at Zhao Hong and said, "You, as the director of the police station, dare to hit me? I think you're the one who doesn't understand the law!"
Zhao Hong roared, "What's wrong with me hitting you? You're scum, and I'm eliminating a menace for the people!"
"Don't think that just because you refuse to confess, I have no way to deal with you."
"Let me tell you, I've interrogated no less than eight hundred to a thousand stubborn individuals like you. I'll make you understand what it means to be in trouble!"
Wu Tian knew that Zhao Hong was a tyrannical shrew.
Therefore, Wu Tian decided not to say anything more to her and simply stated coldly, "Do whatever you want. But making me confess is impossible for the rest of my life."
Zhao Hong glanced at him coldly, "Then we'll see. Let's see who is tougher, you or me!"
The atmosphere in the interrogation room immediately became tense.
Wu Tian and Zhao Hong were at loggerheads, as if a conflict could erupt at any moment.
Just then, the door to the interrogation room opened again, and a man entered from outside.
"Sister, how's this guy being handled?" the man asked with a smile.
Upon seeing the man, Wu Tian's expression changed.
This man was none other than Zhao Qiang from the vegetable market.
