Gong Tong remained calm, a slight smile playing on his lips.

It was as if I had heard something utterly absurd.

"Police investigations require evidence, Officer Lu, be careful or I might sue you for defamation."

"Xue Liang has confessed everything."

Lu Jiaheng dropped a bombshell, trying to disrupt Gong Tong's composure, staring into his eyes, trying to catch a flaw in his expression.

Gong Tong calmly replied, "Xue Liang? What Xue Liang? I don't know him at all."

His tone was calm, without the slightest hint of panic, as if he truly knew nothing about the name.

A barely perceptible glint of anger flashed in Lu Jiaheng's eyes. "I must say, this is the first time I've encountered a murderer like you."

The murderer reported that the victim was missing.

Trying to confuse the public by filing a police report is nothing more than a self-deceiving struggle.

Gong Tong shrugged and said nonchalantly, "I don't understand what you're talking about. If you don't have any substantial evidence, don't waste my time here." His tone was tinged with impatience.

The two continued their maneuvering, each word like a hidden blade, engaging in a fierce exchange.

Time ticked by, and the atmosphere grew increasingly tense, as if the air itself were about to freeze.

"Since there's no news, I'll head back now." Gong Tong suddenly stood up, making as if to leave.

"No hurries?"

Lu Jiaheng also stood up and stood in front of Gong Tong, saying, "My colleague said there's news, so why don't we wait?"

"I'm very busy." Gong Tong frowned, his tone tinged with displeasure.

Lu Jiaheng stared into Gong Tong's eyes and said, word by word, "Feeling guilty?"

"I have nothing to be ashamed of, so what is there to be guilty of?"

Gong Tong met Lu Jiaheng's gaze without flinching, but his slightly trembling fingertips betrayed his inner unease.

Just then, the interrogation room door was pushed open, and Fang Jinhan hurriedly walked in, holding a sealed file bag in her hand.

Here comes the evidence.

Fang Jinhan handed the file bag to Lu Jiaheng and then whispered a few words in his ear.

Lu Jiaheng nodded, a meaningful smile appearing on his face.

He slowly opened the file bag, took out a roll of film, and held it up in front of Gong Tong.

"Gong Tong, come and see if this is evidence."

Gong Tong's face turned deathly pale instantly; he couldn't believe his eyes.

The film contained records of his murder of Xue Hao's family, evidence he had always wanted to destroy.

"Impossible! Where is Xue Liang? How could he dare to hand this over?" Gong Tong's voice turned panicked, and his body began to tremble slightly.

He hadn't killed Xue Liang because he had this evidence and used it to threaten himself.

Xue Liang was afraid of dying, which is why he had to leave this hidden danger, but he didn't expect to be tricked.

"Didn't you say you didn't know Xue Liang? Now you do? Oh, right," Lu Jiaheng said casually, "I forgot to tell you, Xue Liang jumped into the sea and died last night."

Gong Tong didn't refute, but his face showed an expression of disbelief. "No, this is impossible!"

“He knew he couldn’t escape, so he chose to commit suicide.” Lu Jiaheng’s eyes revealed a trace of pity. “Moreover, before he died, he specifically handed this film to us. He said, ‘I’m sorry to Xue Hao’s family, you will also pay the price for what you have done.’”

Gong Tong slumped in the chair, his eyes vacant, as if he had lost all his strength.

It’s over.

He's completely finished!

However, he doesn't regret it! In the end, it was all Xue Hao's family's fault that he was ruined!

If Xiao Ran had been married to him back then, there wouldn't be this lose-lose situation now.

Gong Tong laughed maniacally: "Hahahaha, wait for me to come down, we must have a good chat."

"Gong Tong, even now, you still refuse to admit your guilt!" Lu Jiaheng's voice was authoritative and cold.

Faced with this question, Gong Tong slowly raised his head and finally uttered three words: "I plead guilty."

With those two simple words, Fang Jinhan stepped forward, handcuffed Gong Tong, and led him away from his seat toward the interrogation room.

Gong Tong sat in the interrogation chair.

Lu Jiaheng sat down opposite him, crossed his hands on the table, looked at Gong Tong, and asked.

Why did you kill Xue Hao's family?

Gong Tong's eyes instantly turned fierce. He gritted his teeth, and a twisted expression appeared on his face.

“I hate them! Just because I slept with his sister, their family sent me to prison. They ruined my life. Why do they get to live so well?”

If he's not having an easy time, they can't expect to have one either!

Even if they die, with them taking their place, it's a 1-for-8 trade, which is incredibly profitable!

Lu Jiaheng clenched his fist and continued to press, "Just for this reason, you cruelly murdered eight people?"

Gong Tong sneered, "Isn't that enough? My days in prison were worse than death. Every day I had to endure the bullying from other inmates, and after I got out, everyone looked at me with strange eyes. They ruined my whole life!"

Lu Jiaheng looked at Gong Tong, feeling both angry and somewhat sad. He patiently spoke.

“You were sent to prison because you broke the law. You violated others, so you should be punished. This is the justice of the law, not the fault of Xue Hao’s family.”

The existence of laws protects every citizen and serves as a powerful deterrent to criminals.

It declares to the world that any illegal or criminal act will be punished accordingly.

Gong Tong seemed not to listen. He said excitedly, "Law? Justice? The moment I was locked up, all I knew was that I wanted revenge, I wanted them to pay for what they had done."

Lu Jiaheng shook his head slightly. "Your revenge is meaningless. Xue Hao's sister is also a victim; you have ruined her life. And you, now a murderer, will face even harsher legal punishment."

Gong Tong was silent for a moment, then sneered and said, "Sanctions? I didn't care about them for a long time. The moment I decided to take action, I knew this day would come. But I don't regret it. At least they deserved it, and I've lived for so many years. I'm content."

What a twisted form of humanity! This kind of person is insane; once you get involved, you're doomed!

Completely blinded by hatred, he has utterly lost himself and become a thoroughly depraved demon.

Although it may appear outwardly human, its inner nature is chilling.

Lu Jiaheng took a deep breath and said, "Whether you regret it or not, your actions have already caused serious consequences. Tell me, how did you collude with Xue Liang to commit the crime?"

Gong Tong raised his head, smiled at Lu Jiaheng, and looked at him with excitement in his eyes.

He slowly recounted every detail of the crime.
