The interrogation room fell into silence for several minutes, and Zhang Ligen could only be heard sobbing softly.

When his crying subsided, Hu Pingtao stood up from his chair, walked to Zhang Ligen, took out a tissue and handed it over, and asked calmly: "So you always want revenge?"

Zhang Ligen took the tissue, wiped the corners of his eyes, sniffed hard, and took a deep breath: "I later understood that they were deliberately trying to punish me. I thought about calling the police, but it just happened to be a nationwide crackdown. The rules at that time

It’s different from now. If you report it, you might even have to arrest me too. After thinking about it, I still endured it.”

"I stopped going out to work and stayed in the village farming."

Hu Pingtao returned to the chair and sat down, and asked seriously: "Are you looking for opportunities?"

Zhang Ligen did not admit or deny: "This has been waiting for decades, until now."

Hu Pingtao continued to ask: "So this morning you came to the commercial street, reported to our patrol comrades, and then ran into the mahjong parlor yourself and shouted "The police are coming"?"

Zhang Ligen lowered his head: "I think it's interesting to do this. I have no other idea, I just want to scare them."

Hu Pingtao narrowed his eyes, bit his back molars hard, suppressed the anger that had just arisen in his heart, and said coldly: "Zhang Ligen, you'd better explain the problem honestly and don't beat around the bush with me."

Zhang Ligen raised his head with an innocent look on his face: "Zheng Qianshan defrauded me of more than 20,000 yuan back then, and my life was ruined by him. I really didn't lie! If you don't believe me, you can go to the village and ask, everyone knows about it.

, I didn’t lie to you!”

Hu Pingtao's gaze was like a sword, locking him firmly: "He defrauded you of so much money, so you deliberately bluffed. What is this? A kid playing house?"

Zhang Ligen said before biting him to death: "I really didn't think too much about it, I just wanted to scare him. Who knew he was so ineffective and died after being scared."

After a pause, Zhang Ligen continued: "It's a coincidence. I was walking on the commercial street this morning and happened to see your people patrolling, so I went up and said a few words. They were indeed playing money in the mahjong parlor. It was true.

I’m gambling!”

Seeing the sincere look on his face, Hu Pingtao thought for a moment, turned around, and made a "stop" movement to Li Jianbin where Zhang Ligen couldn't see him.

…

After walking out of the interrogation room, Li Jianbin asked puzzledly: "Xiaohu, why are you not interrogating?"

Hu Pingtao frowned: "This guy is very cunning. He should have made enough preparations in advance. And I think this case is far from as simple as we thought."

Li Jianbin asked curiously: "Did you discover anything?"
