I quickly clicked on the news notification.

They took a lot of photos of me and Ge Zeyu breaking into the foreclosed villa. The angles were rather tricky, and some of them were blurry. They must have been taken by someone nearby unintentionally.

Immediately following, there were photos of the police blocking Ge Zeyu's way, and then Ge Zeyu pulling me away from the villa and getting into a car.

With the addition of embellished text, the comments section of this news post was already filled with dissent.

After all, most ordinary people hate the word "privilege," especially when such privileges don't apply to them. Without understanding the facts, they will make malicious speculations based on their own desires.

This news only appeared online for ten minutes before being quickly deleted.

Originally, this news wasn't very popular, but precisely because it was deleted so quickly, it seemed as if the person who posted it was coerced, leading people to believe even more that Ge Zeyu was bullying others because of the Ge family.

When Ge Zeyu came out of the room, I quickly put my phone away and whispered to him, "The wound has been treated now, let's go and give our statements first!"

Ge Zeyu nodded. When we arrived at the police station, we were greeted by Director Gao, whom we had met once before.

This Director Gao and Chang Xin must be on the same side. Last time, the two of them colluded to prevent Ge Zeyu and me from conducting an autopsy on Zhang Liang.

That's why my guard went up the moment I saw him.

Despite being completely different people, Director Gao put on a friendly demeanor when facing Ge Zeyu. "Young Master Ge, I'm so sorry to trouble you to come all this way. Originally, this matter was just a formality. With your status and position, you could have left after giving a statement."

He paused slightly at this point, then said with a troubled expression, "However, a small change has occurred. Many people online are paying close attention to what happened today, so we have to follow the normal procedures, otherwise I won't be able to explain it to the public."

Ge Zeyu sneered and stared at him for several seconds. "Just follow the rules. I don't have any special relationship with Director Gao."

The other party smiled menacingly and turned to his subordinates behind him, instructing them to separate me and Ge Zeyu for taking statements.

Ge Zeyu immediately defended him, saying that this matter had nothing to do with him, and that he had seen him enter the villa and went in specifically to persuade him to leave, but unexpectedly encountered thugs at this time.

He deflected my responsibility with a few words, but Director Gao said with a smile, "Young Master Ge, we just said that we should follow the procedure. Anyone related to this matter must go through this procedure."

Seeing that Ge Zeyu's brows were furrowing more and more, and his impatience was about to overflow, I quickly spoke up to persuade him in order to prevent the two of them from having any further conflict. "It's okay, it's just taking a statement. After that, we have more important things to do."

We were quickly separated, and I followed two police officers into a dark interrogation room. As soon as I sat down, a policewoman came over and locked the restraints on me, completely restricting my freedom.

My heart skipped a beat, but I maintained a calm facade and said, "I'm just here to give a statement, I'm not a criminal, am I? What are you trying to do!"

As soon as I finished speaking, the two people opposite me slammed their hands on the table and shouted at me in an unusually loud voice, "Jiang Wanying, you have no right to speak here. You are not allowed to say a word before we ask you any questions. Everyone who comes here has to listen to us obediently."

After I finished speaking, the two people opposite me started threatening me, saying that once I entered this room, I wouldn't be able to leave without telling the truth, and that there was no one outside who could protect me, so I shouldn't have any illusions.

If I were an ordinary girl, I might have been scared by his words, but I have been given a second chance at life, and this extra age is not for nothing.

These two people's actions are clearly not right, and what they're saying now is just an attempt to scare me by making an example of them.

I calmly looked at the two of them, and after they finished speaking, I immediately stated my position: "I am here to cooperate with the statement taking. Now you are treating me like a criminal. I need to call my family. I will not say a word until my lawyer arrives."

As soon as he finished speaking, one of them suddenly stood up, walked to the front of the video camera in the room, and intentionally or unintentionally blocked the lens, while the other person directly pointed the bright incandescent light in the room at me.

He spoke in a sinister tone, with a hint of threat, "Miss Jiang, we also believe that you wouldn't dare to do anything illegal or disorderly. It must be that young master of the Ge family who is bullying people by taking advantage of his status, isn't it?"

"The two people he knocked unconscious weren't thugs who broke into the house; they were kind people who went in to stop you from entering the foreclosed property, right?"

When he finished speaking, he emphasized the words "right or wrong," clearly implying something.

They really intend to distort the truth. I had just said no when they warned me not to refuse, or I would suffer the consequences.

No wonder Director Gao separated us for questioning earlier. He was waiting for me here, hoping to use me as a breakthrough to frame Ge Zeyu. They really underestimated me.

"These two people are the thugs who broke into the house. No matter what you say, that's my answer."

As soon as I finished speaking, a bright white light shone down on me. Caught off guard, I felt dizzy and instinctively closed my eyes.

But my eyes were still stinging, and a nerve in my temple was throbbing irregularly. The dizziness and headache were getting stronger.

Before I could even adjust, my newly bandaged arm suddenly felt like it had been grabbed by someone, and I felt a sharp pain shoot through my arm.

The original wound suffered a second injury, and I couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. I gritted my teeth and kept quiet, feeling the force of the other person's hand increasing. The pain made me tremble uncontrollably.

The person who had threatened me earlier moved a little closer, and a cold voice whispered, "Miss Jiang, you are very beautiful, and your fingers are very slender. If you were to accidentally injure this arm, it could be a lifelong problem."

I gritted my teeth and didn't reply, and the other person immediately increased the pressure on my hand.

I couldn't help but cry out in pain, my voice became hoarse.

Just then, a loud bang suddenly rang in my ears.

The door to the room seemed to have been kicked open, and then the hand that was pressing on my wound suddenly released its grip—
