After failing to dissuade her, Yuan Wen reluctantly carried Hanhan into office number 02.

Li Tianran and the stern-faced military policeman walked into office 03 together.

The "office" was actually a small cubicle separated by one-way mirrors. Number 02 was the interrogation room, while number 03 was where witnesses whose identities needed to be protected could watch the interrogation.

The military police arranged this to reassure Li Tianran that Hanhan was right next door and would not leave his sight.

Seeing this, Li Tianran felt relieved.

It seemed that today's trip to the police station was not as fraught with danger as he had imagined.

He had helped the military police eliminate Wells and his gang; they should be commending him!

Li Tianran smiled.

...

"Mr. Li, do you recognize this person?" As soon as they entered the cubicle, the stern-faced military policeman took out a photograph and handed it over.

Li Tianran looked down and saw Wang Bing locked in an interrogation chair.

"Wang Bing?" Li Tianran was taken aback.

Seeing Li Tianran's reaction, the stern-faced military policeman immediately understood that what Wang Bing had said was true!

Wells was indeed killed by this young man!

"What did he do?" Li Tianran asked softly, holding the photo.

He had a deep impression of Wang Bing because, during the battle with Wells, Wang Bing was the most reckless, willing to risk his life. Although hatred was a factor, it also demonstrated Wang Bing's courage.

"Manslaughter." The stern-faced military policeman took off his hat and said, "He also told us about you killing people with guns."

Li Tianran sneered.

He threw the photo on the table and folded his arms.

Sure enough, a temporary alliance was unreliable. The people who had been grateful to him were now immediately betraying him as soon as something happened.

Human nature…

Li Tianran sighed inwardly.

"I don't know what you're talking about… The other party is a murderer. How credible is he? I am a law-abiding citizen. If you believe a murderer and arbitrarily arrest and interrogate a law-abiding citizen, I don't think that makes any sense." Li Tianran's expression was indifferent, and the corners of his mouth slightly turned up.

Li Tianran knew very well that after he had killed Wells, he had taken care of all the traces. Without direct evidence, no one could convict him based on a confession.

Not even a dozen identical confessions would do!

The stern-faced military policeman smiled. He got up, filled a disposable paper cup with water from the water dispenser, and handed it to Li Tianran. "Mr. Li, do you think this is interesting? According to Wang Bing's confession, there were more than a dozen of you involved. As long as I find them and question them one by one, you won't be able to clear yourself!"

"You mean, if you want to convict someone, you just need to find a dozen people to jointly create an identical false confession, and then you can directly execute the accused?" Li Tianran looked at the stern-faced military policeman expressionlessly. "When did our laws become like this?"

The stern-faced military policeman pursed his lips and suddenly smiled. "Mr. Li, you don't have to be so nervous. We summoned you here not to convict you, but just to investigate the whole matter clearly."

"Wells's gang was a malignant tumor in Nancheng. We are more than happy that it has been eliminated."

"The commendation that Officer Yuan mentioned earlier was not entirely a lie to your little girl. According to our speculation, the higher-ups will most likely commend you for forming a self-defense force to eliminate the bandits."

Li Tianran raised his eyebrows.

"I'm sorry, I don't know what you're talking about."

The stern-faced military policeman shrugged helplessly, put his hands on his hips, and sighed. "Mr. Li, this isn't interesting… Although you cleaned up the traces very well when you took action, if we really want to investigate, do you think we wouldn't be able to find any clues?"

"Or… should I bring Wang Bing over now and have him confront you directly?"

...

Yuan Wen sat in office 02. On the table was a small pile of snacks such as biscuits and soft bread.

These were all Yuan Wen's treasured possessions, but now she had to take them all out to keep Hanhan quiet.

Yuan Wen had a headache.

She discovered that Hanhan was a complete rascal. If she didn't let her eat, her energy seemed to have nowhere to be released. She would touch the handcuffs on the interrogation chair, flip through the documents on the table, and almost locked herself up several times.

The main thing was that a few minutes after being separated from Li Tianran, Hanhan began to become restless, clamoring to find Da Guo (Big Brother)…

"Your name is Hanhan, right?" Yuan Wen squatted down and asked, approaching Hanhan. "Uncle Black Face and your brother will be back soon. How about I tell you a story in the meantime?"

"Okay." Hanhan nodded, holding a snack in one hand.

"A long, long time ago, there lived three little pigs in the forest. One day, their mother told them…" Yuan Wen began, but was interrupted by Hanhan as soon as she started.

"The big pig built a straw house, the second pig built a wooden house, and the little pig built a stone house." Hanhan pouted, looking pitifully at Yuan Wen. "Sister, I've heard this story eight hundred times. Can you tell a new one?"

Yuan Wen was choked for a moment, then adjusted her state and said, "Okay, then I'll tell you the story of Snow White…"

"A thousand times!" Hanhan shook her head.

"Little Red Riding Hood?"

"One thousand eight hundred times!"

"The Nutcracker?"

"Two thousand times!"

"Cinderella?"

"Ten thousand times!"

"…"

Yuan Wen told more than twenty famous fairy tales in a row, feeling like her head was about to explode. She finally gave up.

"Sister is so weak, she has no creativity at all… The stories she tells are so old-fashioned!" Hanhan pouted. "The stories Da Guo tells are much better!"

"What kind of stories does your brother usually tell you?" Yuan Wen asked patiently.

"Hmm…" Hanhan pressed her chin with her little finger, thought for a while, and said, "There's…"

"Lin Daiyu Uprooting the Willow Tree!"

"Black Bear Spirit in the Snowy Mountain Temple!"

"Zhuge Liang Cleverly Capturing Tiger Mountain!"

"Sun Wukong Making Havoc in the Grand View Garden!"

Yuan Wen was dumbfounded. Her worldview was subjected to the most violent shock. At this moment, she even had the urge to vomit blood.

"Your brother is really too strong… I, Sister, admit defeat!" Yuan Wen clasped her fists at Hanhan, sincerely convinced. "I lost! You should just eat your snacks!"

After saying that, Yuan Wen hardened her heart and took out her two treasured fruits, washed them clean, and shared them equally with Hanhan.

Hanhan looked at Yuan Wen with the eyes of a "weakling," and hopped over to take the fruit.

Yuan Wen was ridiculed by Hanhan, feeling that her personality had been greatly insulted. She slumped in the chair, listless.

She felt very tired and wanted to rest for a while, so she closed her eyes.

Just then, she heard a soft thud.

It turned out that Hanhan's hand was unsteady when she took the fruit, and an apple fell into the nearby trash can.

Yuan Wen suddenly chuckled inwardly: Let's see what you do now!

Suddenly, she saw Hanhan pick up the apple from the trash can, secretly glance at her, and then Yuan Wen immediately pretended to continue closing her eyes and resting.

Hanhan walked over somewhat embarrassed, standing in front of Yuan Wen.

Yuan Wen sneered inwardly, Little girl, let you mock me for not being creative, now you still have to obediently come and beg me, right?

"Sister…" Hanhan said timidly.

Yuan Wen opened her eyes.

"Can you help me…" Hanhan's eyes contained a plea, her little face looked pitiful, and she handed over the apple.

Seeing this, Yuan Wen's heart softened, and she was about to take it to wash it.

"Can you help me peel the skin?" Hanhan showed a bright and harmless smile.

Yuan Wen's eyebrows twitched wildly, her face full of black lines.

This little girl is really black-bellied to the extreme!
