The temperature of the city dropped drastically because of the heavy rain throughout the whole night.
A new typhoon arrived along with it.
This coastal city saw more typhoons this year compared to former years.
There were many similar cases, floods happened in many places around this country.
Those were all because the natural environment getting worse… but ordinary people wouldn’t care about such issues and who should be blamed.
They only thought of their own lives, such as which way they should go through the very next morning or when the sewers were almost blocked in many streets.
Nevertheless, Ma Houde’s colleagues weren’t late for work despite the traffic—because they hadn’t left the police station at all.
Working overtime.
The whole night, all the people in the department were dispatched to investigate Xu Zhao’s background. As for the reason, it was because of the clues Officer Ma received from Subeditor Ren.
“Xu Zhao, according to his monthly tax revenue, belongs to the high-income group. The annual income should be around 1 million.” A young police officer was reporting to Officer Ma, “But we found out that he is a playboy interested in drinking, gambling and ladies. He enters Beauty Heaven at least five times a month, as well as some other entertainment venues… It is estimated that his monthly consumption is at least 100,000 Yuan. In addition to the house he lives, there are two sets of commercial apartments in use. He needs to repay 46,700 for the monthly loan. Besides, he bought a Mercedes-Benz car last month, 800,000 Yuan…”
“Well, something must be wrong with this guy’s financials, but that is not our responsibility…” Ma Houde shook his head, “But from the discrepancy between his income and consumption, I’m sure he has other gray income…”
But by right, a cram school principal should not have some ways to get ‘extra money’.
“Oh, we also found out that Xu Zhao rented a penthouse villa in Jihao International in his name. The security guards inside said many cars were parked there before, but recently, about one week, that villa hasn’t been lighted up.”
He paused, and then continued concluding, “We suspect that Xu Zhao is doing something there, but suddenly stopped recently… It matches the time we started to investigate the tutorial school. Officer Ma, do you think someone leaked out our information?”
Ma Houde frowned, “Do you think somebody in the department did it?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe young policeman shook his head, and Ma Houde knocked the table for seconds, “The wall has ears. The big boss of the cram school is Dai Youcai, who has good relationships with many high officials and officers.”
Ma Houde didn’t continue his sentence—Saying, for example, the leader in his team was a talkative guy after drinking several glasses of beers.
“There must be something hiding in that villa of Jihao International, order two guys to have a 24-hour surveillance.” Ma Houde lowered his voice.
Impatience was a serious mistake in investigations… Before getting evidence, you had to patiently wait for the other party’s mistake.
But Officer Ma’s couldn’t have possibly predicted that… there was little time for him to wait!
When the young policeman was about to assign the tasks, another officer walked into the department room.
“Officer Ma, a man called Xu Zhao is here to confess for his crime!”
…
Across the glass in the interrogation room, Ma Houde sized Xu Zhao up and down.
‘Is he out of his mind?’
He was shaking his head while crossing his legs… It was not the appearance of drug users, but similar to an old guy listening to traditional operas.
In fact, through equipment, they figured out that he was really doing that.
“Ich-Will.”
“What?” Ma Houde looked at the young policeman curiously.
He pointed at Xu Zhao, shrugging his shoulders, “Ich-Will, he’s humming the song of a heavy metal band.”
Ma Houde gaped, and then shook his head, walking into the room, throwing the notebook on the table, and sitting down opposite to Xu Zhao.
“Are you Xu Zhao? You came to confess?” Ma Houde said seriously, “Why?”
“Oh, hello, Officer Ma!” Xu Zhao straightened his body, and cleared his throat, “Oh, old Taoist…”
“Old Taoist?”
“Oh, no, I mean, I came here because I committed crimes.”
Ma Houde rolled his eyes, and turned his notebook to record, “Tell me, what crimes did you commit?”
“Bribery, organizational prostitution and fornication with underage girls.”
“Bribery…and what?” Officer Ma raised his head, worrying if he misheard it.
“Organizational prostitution and fornication with underage girls.” ‘Xu Zhao’ said, “Officer, it that clear?”
“Yeah.”
Ma Houde was totally shocked… ‘Is there something wrong with his brain?’
“Xu Zhao, you need to take this seriously, because every word of you will be recorded and presented in court.”
“Officer, I totally understand!”
‘Xu Zhao’ nodded, “I swear what I tell you next are all what I have done. Officer, I’m guilty and condemned by my heart, so I will tell you all my crimes, exposing those evil things hiding in the dark, building an equal and peaceful world…”
“Stop, stop, stop!” Ma Houde waved his hand, “Are you going to make a speech? Making fun of the police?”
“No, I dare not to trick you!” ‘Xu Zhao’ waved his hands.
Ma Houde glared at this guy, before heaving a sigh, “Tell me, what did you do.”
“Yes.” ‘Xu Zhao’ breathed a sigh of relief, continuing saying, “First of all, we try to seduce students of the cram school with money and grades. As long as students agree, then we won’t worry about lacking customers. You know, the supply of girl students falls short of demand!”
Upon hearing Xu Zhao’s word, Ma Houde felt incredulous at the students’ behaviors.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Wait, it makes sense to seduce them with money and valuables, but what do you mean grades?” Ma Houde frowned.
Xu Zhao grinned, “Because some of our guests are principals of some key schools, it’s very easy to get the paper and questions from them. It’s a cost-efficient deal for those girl students!”
“Humph!” Ma Houde enraged, “They are not grown-ups and are still immature! You…”
“Officer! I know what you want to say, I’m not human, I’m an animal! So I came to confess, isn’t that good?”
Ma Houde didn’t release his anger… He never saw any criminal revealing his crimes obediently like this person.
Officer Ma deeply breathed, calming down and asking, “Then how can you prove that you really committed the crimes?”
‘Xu Zhao’ fished out a key, “Officer, it’s the key to my house. There is a laptop in my wardrobe with all the evidence you want. Oh right, the password is 77888555!”
Ma Houde grasped the key with doubts, standing up after thinking a while, “Wait here, we’ll go to check!”
After that, Officer Ma pushed open the door and left.
‘He’s really obedient…what the hell!’
…
…
Half a day passed.
When Ma Houde came back to him, he showed a long face while sitting in front of Xu Zhao.
Xu Zhao asked quickly, “Sir, did you get it?”
Ma Houde sneered, “Yes! Very clear. As you said, we did find out that laptop with plenty of photos about victims… You’re quite a good guy, taking photos after screwing with underage girls. Do you wish to die?”
“Alas, don’t focus on the details!” Xu Zhao asked nervously, “Sir, will I be utterly discredited?”
“Discredited?” Ma Houde sneered, “Not enough! Now that we got all the evidence! At least 3 years, the most serious one is the death penalty!”
‘Xu Zhao’ heaved a long sigh, saying in a relaxed tone, “Then, I feel relieved!”
After saying, Xu Zhao suddenly looked down, slumping onto the table and stopped moving.
Ma Houde was stunned, pulling him up, but found that this guy was just sleeping…
