Wang Sheng's eyes widened, sweat pouring out of his forehead. "What nonsense are you talking about?!"

Wang Sheng, angry and embarrassed, reached out to push her. An Yan glanced at the police car approaching not far away, so she fell to the ground consciously and did not let his dirty hands touch the corner of her clothes.

Seeing that he dared to attack, the people on the construction site protected An Yan and stood in front of her. Someone came over and kicked Wang Sheng out.

Wang Sheng fell flat on his back, and only the old lady shouted "My darling" and jumped up from the ground to help him, without showing any sign of pain in her heart.

When a team of police officers arrived, the old lady was the first to complain, tearfully accusing them: "Comrade police, they are so vicious, bullying us orphans and widows with no one to rely on. Is there any justice in the world? A group of people beat up my son. Comrade police, arrest them all!"

Wang Sheng's first reaction when he saw the police was to turn around and run, but he was surrounded by workers and could not escape at all, so he was detained directly.

The workers all retorted indignantly, and for a moment it was impossible to hear what was said.

"Okay, thank you all for just now. Now everyone can go home! There are surveillance cameras at the door. They will be able to tell right from wrong. You don't have to worry." After dispersing the crowd, An Yan explained the situation in a few words and asked someone to check the surveillance.

Wang Sheng, who tried to escape, was taken into the car, and An Yan naturally had to make a statement.

At the police station, Rong Yue brought He Dafu back and interrogated him.

He Dafu was already a seasoned veteran. After the tension of being arrested wore off, he looked like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water. If his hands and feet had not been fixed by the interrogation chair, he would have crossed his legs.

"Do you feel that if you don't speak, no one can punish you?"

He Dafu snorted and looked at Rong Yue provocatively with a smile. The meaning of his eyes was self-evident.

Rong Yue crossed his arms over his chest, "Then do you know that it is possible to convict someone without a confession now?"

"Hmph, you police officers, are you still going to disregard the law and frame me? Don't think you can fool me just because I don't understand. Zero confession requires solid evidence! Where's the evidence? Where's the murder weapon?"

Rong Yue was calm and composed. "You are so confident, but have you ever thought about how we could find you without any evidence?"

He Dafu's smile froze for a second, then he said, "Since you can't catch the criminal, you just want to find someone to take the blame to cover up your incompetence! When I get out, I will definitely sue you!"

"Let's watch a video!" Ling Yu put the laptop in front of He Dafu.

The captured video was only a short clip, and it ended with his high-definition smiling face.

As proud as He Dafu was then, he is as embarrassed now.

He couldn't believe it and said, "How could there be surveillance there? I clearly checked it in advance!"

"Haven't you heard the saying, 'Heaven's net is vast and wide, and nothing can escape it?'"

Rong Yue sighed regretfully, "I originally wanted you to confess yourself and give you a chance to reduce your sentence, but I didn't expect you to be so stubborn and not cherish it. Forget it, the evidence is irrefutable anyway, so I have to punish you more severely."

Rong Yue and Ling Yu started to get up and pack their things, ready to leave.

He Dafu panicked, "No, officer, I'll confess! I didn't kill him. I just helped dispose of the body."

Seeing their faces full of disbelief as they continued to walk out, He Dafu shouted, "Really, officer! I'm reporting it! Wang Sheng killed the man! He opened his head with a beer bottle. I saw it all."

Rong Yue and Ling Yu looked at each other and said, "Tell me in detail."

He Dafu sighed, his face downcast. "That night, I went out to buy a pack of cigarettes and saw Wang Yong and his brother leaving. I was curious, so I thought I'd follow them to see what was going on."

"Oh, I really regret it! If I hadn't followed him, things wouldn't be like this now."

Ling Yu knocked on the table and said, "Just explain it clearly and don't talk about anything else."

"I saw them go to the alley behind the construction site and start a heated, noisy argument. Then Wang Yong was about to leave, and Wang Sheng grabbed a beer bottle from the nearby garbage dump and... cracked it open. He was gone."

"I got so scared that I accidentally missed a step on the stairs and was discovered by Wang Sheng. Then... he threatened me, saying he would kill me if I didn't help him! I had no choice!"

"Then he said the owner of our construction site is rich. If we dump the person here and the police can't find the murderer, they'll cause a scene. To keep things quiet, they'll definitely extort a million or eight hundred thousand, and then split the money in half."

"Officer, I was confused for a moment!" He Dafu looked regretful.

"Even if you only helped dispose of the body, you've committed the crime of aiding the suspect in destroying and fabricating evidence. Add to that the attempt at blackmail, and the circumstances are extremely serious! And!" Rong Yue said coldly, "You're still lying!"

He Dafu, who had been feeling dispirited, suddenly said excitedly, "I'm not lying! I really just dumped a body."

"Really? Then how did you come up with such a meticulous plan to dispose of the body and execute it perfectly within an hour of the victim's death?"

He Dafu's lips moved, he sighed, and said depressedly: "It's not perfect either. It was discovered so quickly."

Ling Yu slammed the table angrily, "Tell the truth! Has this been planned for a long time?"

"No, I just suddenly remembered that there is such a hole that can be used..." He Dafu wanted to struggle again.

Rong Yue suddenly laughed, "He Dafu, even the moment you dumped the body was recorded. Do you think anything you did in the past was recorded?"

He Dafu choked and collapsed into the interrogation chair, confessing with a look of despair, "I left that hole on purpose. That corner is really hidden, and I clearly saw there weren't any cameras... Ahem, I just took some discarded rebar heads and screws and nuts from the construction site and sold them for a little money, maybe a few tens of thousands."

"Tens of thousands is a small amount of money? Is it yours that you're selling it? You're stealing and selling stolen goods!"

He Dafu shrank his neck and sneered, "Officer, I really know I was wrong. I've confessed everything!"

After taking the statement, Ling Yu first checked Wang Sheng's address information to determine his current location and prepare to arrest him.

Rong Yue finished packing up the documents and just stood up when he saw Ling Yuxing rushing up, "We've caught him!"

"Huh?" Rong Yue tilted his head in confusion.

Ling Yu nodded affirmatively, "It's in the lobby downstairs!"

Rong Yue walked to the stairs to the second floor and saw An Yan surrounded by a group of people.

An Yan also saw him and waved hello. She didn't want to disturb him from working, but Rong Yue walked straight up to her. "What happened?"
