Chapter 250 - Plead Guilty (1/2)
Hu Cheng and Xiao Feng were sitting in the middle with Xu Lan and Wang Meng on both sides. The widescreen was displaying the scene in the interrogation room. A young lad was sitting right up, the 600-watt lamp shone so brightly that it caused their retinas to see white scatters everywhere.
“What a f*cking tight lip, he’s not willing to say anything!” Wang Meng scolded in frustration.
“Let me handle it.” Xu Lan stood up and walked towards the interrogation room after he said that. He specifically let Bai Wu dress him today, looking prim and proper when he opened the interrogation room’s door. He was already covered in a thin layer of sweat after he entered the room as it was almost noon and the light was emitting more heat.
“President Zhao.”
“I never thought that it’ll be you!” Zhao Ran opened his eyes to look at the person who entered the room but lowered his eyebrow after merely raising it. He spoke in disdain as if he felt the disappointment from losing to a formerly defeated opponent.
“Yes, it’s me. Do you plead guilty?” Xu Lan unfastened two buttons. He felt like a fool as he specially dressed up for this as if he was going to meet his lover!
“Haha, plead guilty? I did nothing wrong, you’re going against the law by detaining me! I won’t say a thing, you can ask my lawyer when he arrives,” Zhao Ran said nonchalantly. He did not budge even when it was Xu Lan’s turn to be the interrogator.
“This is not any other country, we can’t arrest you without any valid reason, President Zhao.” Xu Lan drank a sip of water before passing the files to the front of Zhao Ran and signaled him to take a look at it.
“Someone notified you that the mine owner is still alive right? Or else, you wouldn’t have appeared in the hospital.”
“I already said that I went into the wrong room! I was supposed to visit aunty, she’s not feeling quite well these days!” Xu Lan raised his hand to stop Zhao Ran from continuing. It took quite an effort to catch hold of him! He was as slippery as a loach!
Xu Lan humphed lightly and threw the cell phone in front of Zhao Ran. Mama Song was happily playing mahjong with the neighbors. She looked perfectly healthy, showing no signs of being unwell.
