After Duffer hung up the phone, he called Du Lin again. Before he could speak, Du Lin told him what he wanted to know, which also gave him an inexplicable feeling. He just solved some troubles through a car accident a few days ago, and now someone is planning to solve Vivian's problem through a car accident. The only difference between them is that Dover succeeded, but the other group did not.
The driver was caught on the spot. After all, Vivian was a very famous and politically powerful woman, and she had a special status. Even the governor had asked about this matter. The driver received considerate and gentle care from the police at the police station, and finally confessed the fact that he had stolen the car. He had stolen this car and planned to drive it elsewhere to sell it. His driving skills were not good and he had only driven it twice.
This time, because he saw a large group of people occupying half of the road and a car coming from the opposite direction, he mistakenly pressed the power pedal as the brake, which caused the accident. There was no premeditation from beginning to end, and no one instigated him. He insisted that it was just an accident and was willing to admit his theft.
But... was it really an accident
After hanging up the phone, Dufo returned to the inn and slept. Early the next morning, Dufo left the inn. He contacted some people and asked some questions before returning to the inn at noon and He left the room, and then got on the steam locomotive to Ordo with Kena. Less than half an hour after arriving in Orodo, Dover was arrested and taken to the police station for assaulting a passerby.
At this time, Dufo looked unruly. He was wearing expensive clothes, crossing his legs and shaking, and he didn't have the slightest attitude of being arrested and taken to the police station. The two policemen sitting opposite him both had headaches and did not conduct inquiries in accordance with the rules and regulations for a while.
Aldo is the capital of Cannes State. There are really a lot of officials and rich people here. They are not sure where the guy named... Mike in front of them comes from, and looking at this guy's indifferent look, I'm afraid even if he is not an official, he is still a rich person or something. The police actually have a headache when facing this kind of people. The last thing they want to provoke is this kind of person. If they are not careful, they can get into big trouble.
The two policemen are both veteran police officers. They have seen many similar things. Because they accidentally had a bad attitude when interrogating a certain rich man or an official or their children, the other party found nothing, and they were thrown away. Official hat. Among them, a police officer named Jonathan suffered the most serious consequences. At that time, he attacked the suspect because he could not stand his arrogant and domineering attitude. As a result, within five minutes of leaving the police station that night, Jonathan was stabbed more than a dozen times. Finally died in the hospital.
This incident touched everyone a lot, so from then on, before finding out the details of the other party, all the police officers had a good attitude. After all, no one wanted to be the second Jonathan.
The police officer sitting on the left was older. Although he did not smile, his expression was gentle and not aggressive. "Do you know the person you beat?"
Du Fu raised his chin and raised his nostrils to the sky, which really made people confused. A trace of nasal sound came out of his nasal cavity, and there was a strong sense of contempt. He shook his head and said, "I don't know you!"
"Then why did you hit him?"
"He looked at me askance. I felt like he looked down on me!"
"Just because of this?", the policeman who started interrogating couldn't help but ask: "Just because you thought he looked at you cross-eyed, so you beat him to the point of bleeding?"
Dover was obviously a little impatient. He started arguing, "Isn't it just compensation? How much does it cost? One thousand? Or two thousand? Let me out quickly. I have something else to do." He said and took it out of his pocket. A checkbook, signed with your name casually, it seems that you can tell the price as you please.
The two police officers were dumbfounded at this time. In the evening, someone called the police and reported that there was a fight outside the station. A young man severely beat a passing peer, and the beating was not light. When the police arrived, they sent the injured to the hospital and then took Dufo back to the police station. The process of the matter was so simple and there were no other consequences or losses. In addition to the testimony of eyewitnesses, and with Dufo's cooperation, the two police officers felt that there was no need to continue questioning and closed the notebook directly.
One of them coughed lightly and said: "Actually, you can run away after you beat him. There is no need to stay at the scene. Before the other party has no further opinions, this will make you temporarily lose your freedom." As he spoke, he glanced at his side secretly. In fact, the other party has made a request for at least three hundred yuan in compensation, otherwise they will have to go to court.
Three hundred yuan is neither too much nor too little. It is roughly equivalent to half a year's salary of the injured person. This claim amount is just right and no one can say anything. But Dufo's attitude of not treating money as money at this time made the two policemen have other thoughts. Seeing as how this guy doesn't care about a thousand or two thousand yuan, he might be able to spend more. When they finish this job, the excess will fall into their hands.
The police of this period basically had some problems of one kind or another. The chief of police knew about some things, but he would not take the initiative to take care of them. The profession of police itself is very dangerous, especially those on the front line, who may encounter gangsters who are desperate for their lives. In addition, the salary and benefits of the police themselves are just like that, so if the police officers can earn a little extra income within a reasonable range, as long as it is not illegal, the police chief will not care.
If you have too much control, the people below will not only say weird things, but also complain.
The two were partners, and they immediately understood each other's thoughts. The other person also licked his lips and said: "Actually, it's all trivial matters. The key is the attitude of the injured person. If he is willing to know about this matter in private, then you can give him money We will let you go. But if the other party does not agree to resolve it privately and must go through legal means, it can only be resolved through a trial, so the initiative now lies with the injured person. "
"Let's do it this way. You stay in the detention room overnight today, and we'll contact the injured person and try to convince him to resolve it privately. After all, opening a court for this matter is a waste of the empire's resources, what do you think?"
Dufo was stunned for a moment, "You want to detain me?" His expression suddenly changed and he stood up, "I want to call my lawyer..."
The two policemen were both experienced and immediately advised: "This is just a small matter. If you call in a lawyer, it will give the injured a bad impression. Maybe the other party will really ask to go to court. At that time, forget it. You have a lawyer, and you can't do anything during this period. You may not know that the trial of a theft case next door has been scheduled for a week. If you ask me, it's better to stay here for one night, and it's not a detention. It’s just detention.”
The police officer patted his chest and promised, "We will definitely find you the cleanest detention room with the least number of people. I guarantee there won't be anything else. Maybe you can go out tonight?"
After a series of beatings, Dufo was finally persuaded by the two policemen who had all their good words. He reluctantly agreed to the two policemen's suggestions and was escorted outside the detention room by the two policemen. Just as the two police officers were about to open a cell, Dufo suddenly pointed to another cell and said, "I want to live there."
The two policemen were a little confused. There were only three people in the cell they chose for Dufo, but there were five people in the cell Dufo pointed to. Of course, the fewer people the better in a place like this. Although it was unclear why Dufo wanted to live in another prison cell, but in line with the mentality that rich people are grandfathers, two policemen opened the door of another prison cell for him and vaguely threatened the people inside. , telling them to be polite to Dufo.
Everything was as ordinary as every ordinary day in the police station, until night fell.
After dinner, the people in the prison cell bragged for a while and then fell on the bed and fell asleep. There was no entertainment here, so go to bed early if you can.
Around four o'clock in the middle of the night, Dufo, who had been sleeping, suddenly opened his eyes. The surroundings were very dark, and the moonlight outside the window limitedly shone into the prison cell, becoming the only light source. He quietly sat up from the bed, listening to the snoring in his ears, he quietly got out of the bed, and then touched the edge of the fourth bed. He took off his clothes, twisted it into a rope, tightened the man's neck and lifted it up slightly.
The man woke up suddenly, and when he wanted to struggle, he saw Dufo's dark eyes and heard his voice, "If you dare to move, I will kill you!"
The man immediately stopped moving, and Du Fu also appropriately let go of the "rope" that was tightly strangling his neck. "Let me ask you a question. If you nod or shake your head, if you alarm others, I guarantee you won't survive until the sun comes up." At that moment, did you understand?”
The man nodded repeatedly, and Du Lin asked: "The car accident was premeditated, wasn't it?"
The man was silent for a while. When he was thinking about whether to lie, Dufo suddenly tightened the rope, and a huge force caught his neck, making him unable to breathe. At the same time, he felt violent bursts in his cervical spine. of pain. He didn't dare to bet on whether the other party would kill him, so he could only express what the other party was interested in. He closed his mouth tightly and nodded repeatedly. The rope around his neck finally relaxed a little. He took two big breaths and looked at the beds around him.
A detention room is different from a prison. The function of the prison itself is to restrict freedom and to allow criminals to get the punishment they deserve. However, those detained in the detention room are not necessarily all suspects, including some important witnesses. Therefore, all the beds in the detention room are independent, and the two-meter interval is enough to ensure that they are not disturbed by other people.
