“If you’re so uncooperative, then we’re very sorry,” the police sighed.
So for the next day, they repeated the previous night’s round of interrogation without a moment of rest. The only merciful thing this time was that he was given a sip of water halfway.
However, the water was so cold that when it entered his mouth, it stimulated his infected tooth. Yue Pengcheng’s body convulsed in pain as if he was having epilepsy.
Yue Pengcheng felt like he was on the verge of death from the torture. He did not know how much time had passed, but in the end, his consciousness seemed to have left him. He kept repeating mechanically,””I’m not ... A spy, I’m not a spy ...”
Yue Pengcheng knew that even if it was the local police, they would not be able to hold him for more than 72 hours without any concrete evidence.
He just needed to get through these three days.
However, three days had passed, and it seemed like they still had no intention of letting him go. Yue Pengcheng was on the verge of a mental breakdown. In these three days, he felt that he had become neither human nor ghost. He did not even know what kind of ghostly appearance he had.
At first, he didn’t eat any rotten rice, but on the third day, he felt that his sense of taste and smell had lost their function. He would eat even if he was given a lump of sh * t.
In these three days, he finally understood what it meant to have no response from the heavens, to have no way to live, to have no way to die.
When the police arrived, Yue Pengcheng knelt in front of him and pulled on his pants, crying,””Please, I’m begging you, let me go, let me go. I’m ... I’m from the Yue family of Luo city. Even though I’ve been chased out of the Yue family, Yue tingfeng is my son. I’m really not a spy. It’s been 72 hours and you haven’t found anything. Please let me go. I’m begging you.”
The police officer looked troubled as he helped him up.””Although 72 hours have passed, you’re still a suspect. We can’t do anything about it. After all, this is not a small problem. If something really happens, none of us will be able to take responsibility.”
Yue Pengcheng’s snot and tears flowed out of his eyes and nose.”But you haven’t found any evidence either. I’ve been tortured ... No, no, I’m already in this state. If I was, I’d really tell you. Please.”
“Alright, I’ll go and ask for instructions,” the police officer said.
Then, after another hour, the police officer returned.
As Yue Pengcheng’s eyes filled with anticipation, he said,””Although you’re still a suspect, we’re a country ruled by law. Extending the time of detention is not something we should do ...”
“Yes, yes, yes. I knew that the police in our country serve the people. They’re all good people. Can I now ...” Yue Pengcheng no longer had the arrogance he had when he first came in. He bowed to the police like a completely tamed dog.
The police officer frowned.”You can go out, but you have to find someone to bail you out. After all, your situation is still special. We, the police, must know your whereabouts at all times, know where you are, and what you are doing. You have to leave your address and contact information.”
Yue Pengcheng’s heart was filled with hope, but it was as if someone had poured a bucket of ice water over his head,””But I just came back to China and I haven’t been back for more than ten years. Who can bail me out now?”
“Well,” the police officer said,”look for your friends and family. If there are any specific clues, we can help you contact them.”
