"Do you regret it now?"
Gao Man, having re-dressed, had co back, that crisp police uniform looking very solemn, but Lin Fan’s mind was filled with the image of her twisting and turning on the back seat.
"What’s there to regret?"
Lin Fan looked at Gao Man with confusion, still pondering what he was going to say to Huo Ben later.
"Regret making the bet with , right? You must have seen Song Lili’s emotional state just now. We’ve managed to match the DNA we extracted from her body with Huo Ben’s, plus your testimony that she indeed ca with Huo Ben, this ti Huo Ben has no escape, and you’ve surely lost."
Gao Man pouted her lips, a triumphant look on her face: "Just prepare yourself to be my little dog for life."
"Well, let’s just wait and see."
Lin Fan shrugged his shoulders, and the two arrived in front of an interrogation room. After Gao Man managed the special approval docunts, they both sat down on the chairs, waiting. Before long, the door opened again, and Huo Ben, in handcuffs, walked in.
"County Magistrate Lin, you really ca, this is our second eting, isn’t it?"
Huo Ben sat down on a chair opposite Lin Fan, and after entering without a word, he suddenly smiled at this mont.
"I rember it’s the third ti, but saying it’s the second ti is normal too, after all, nobody noticed the first ti."
Lin Fan took out a cigarette and lit it, then handed it to Huo Ben, and only then he asked, "I just really didn’t expect to et you here, quite a surprise to ."
"So, you must have made a statent, right?"
Huo Ben took a puff of the cigarette, smiling as he watched Lin Fan, but there was a peculiar gleam in his eyes.
"Cooperating with the public security organs is the duty of every citizen; I simply reported what I saw."
Lin Fan also lit a cigarette, after all, this was just a normal eting, he wasn’t there to interrogate.
"The day you took her away, I told you she was going to extort . Now, as expected, I’ve hit the nail on the head, haven’t I? So, County Magistrate Lin, these days, you can’t be a good person. After all that, they locked up a law-abiding good person like ."
Huo Ben’s smile seed to hide sothing unseen.
"So I’m also curious, considering Boss Huo’s capabilities, we shouldn’t be eting here, should we? Got any secrets you want to share?"
Lin Fan looked straight into Huo Ben’s eyes, puzzled by his imprisonnt, which was truly strange.
"County Magistrate Lin, what you’re saying... if the City Public Security Bureau wanted to arrest , it’d be a matter of minutes. I’m just an ordinary businessman, how could I possibly oppose the public security organs? It’s not just about arresting ; even if they called , I’d turn myself in."
Huo Ben said with a laugh: "But I’ve heard that the order for County Magistrate Lin’s assignnt to the Red Flag County Governnt has already been issued, and you’ll be taking office soon. It’s just unfortunate that I’m in prison and can’t handle any external affairs to welco you properly, so I asked the comrades from the Public Security Bureau to invite you over, as a way to welco you personally."
"Do you really plan to stay in here forever, not planning to go out?"
Lin Fan clearly sensed there was sothing more behind those words, but couldn’t get it yet, so he continued to ask.
"County Magistrate Lin, I am just an honest and ordinary businessman who has now fallen into this plight. Coming and going is not up to ; it depends on whether our brilliant public security organs can clear my na."
Huo Ben smiled and shifted his gaze to Gao Man, sitting next to Lin Fan: "Beautiful policewoman, am I right?"
"We will investigate thoroughly and deal with your issue fairly and justly. We also hope you will confess your problems honestly."
Gao Man said with a cold face, disliking making eye contact with Huo Ben because his gaze always seed terrifying.
"Boss Huo, you’re cooling my heart with what you’re saying. I’ve made a bet that Boss Huo, with your vast powers, couldn’t possibly be touched by such a trivial case. If you can’t get out, I stand to lose big."
Lin Fan also started to laugh, as the two seemingly engaged in casual talk while probing each other, which was indeed out of the ordinary.
"Then County Magistrate Lin might need to go to the temple to light so incense, praying the old gods look favorably upon my years of goodness, to bless with peace... oh, I ant, to bless that girl who frad to clear my na."
Huo Ben threw his cigarette butt on the ground and stood up: "I won’t waste any more of County Magistrate Lin’s precious ti. Once I get out, I’ll definitely welco you in Lin County, see you in Red Flag County."
Watching Huo Ben leave, Lin Fan’s gaze deepened. Their second confrontation, and he still did not understand Huo Ben’s aning.
"What are you thinking about?"
Gao Man looked at Lin Fan curiously; the always sly man seldom showed such a serious expression.
"I was wondering why Huo Ben insisted on seeing ... He said so much just now but seed to say nothing... Then why !"
Lin Fan rubbed his head, feeling there was a ghost in this matter, yet unable to grasp the key points.
"But what I can be sure of is, he must have the assurance needed to make Song Lili recant her testimony!"
