"Even if you show this expression, it can't change this fact."
Gu Liancheng looked indifferent and lightly shrugged his shoulders.
"Since you are unwilling to tell us the truth..."
Gu Liancheng stood up slowly.
"Then I will have no choice but to temporarily detain you here. After the matter is concluded, I will decide whether to release you or continue to detain you."
After saying that, Gu Liancheng turned around and left the interrogation room.
"Hey! Wait a minute...tell me clearly! What do you mean by a large number of witnesses?"
"Who are the people you are asking?!"
"Come back! Come back!"
Ye Chen's shouts didn't seem to be enough to make Gu Liancheng stop.
"Lock him back!"
He told the two police officers at the door.
"yes!"
The little policeman who had been waiting at the door for a long time followed his footsteps.
"Brother Gu, what did Ye Chen say?"
Gu Liancheng handed the documents in his hand to the person behind him.
Perhaps due to lack of sleep, he felt like the world was spinning in front of his eyes.
After not sleeping for three days and three nights, he was pushed by his subordinates to go home to rest, but as soon as he lay down, another phone call woke him up.
He rushed to the scene only to find that he was fetching water from a bamboo basket again, and then he followed the police team to another crime reporting scene.
As a result, the reporter was questioned about his incompetence. After in-depth investigation, it was discovered that this seemingly ordinary illegal gathering actually involved a large family in Shen City.
Although I have known for a long time that being a police officer is not an easy profession, the feeling of powerlessness in my heart still rises uncontrollably.
To be honest, Gu Liancheng was in an extremely bad mood right now.
"Why……"
He sighed softly.
"Sure enough, he was the one who started the trouble, right? I saw it on the Internet. They seem to be deducting employees' wages..."
"It has nothing to do with him."
Gu Liancheng gently rubbed his temples.
"ah?!"
"I said it has nothing to do with him."
"But...most of the witnesses at the scene said he was the one who started the attack..."
"Xiao Chen."
"yes!"
"Have you also seen the financial statements of Chaoyang Logistics Company?"
When asked about this, police officer surnamed Chen was a little nervous.
"No...I haven't watched it yet, because I think..."
Before the other party could finish his explanation, Gu Liancheng shook his head to stop his words.
"That's why I said you are missing something as a police officer."
"Listen, we are the police, lackeys of the law and not messengers of justice."
"Who is right? Who is wrong?"
"For us, this kind of true or false question is too difficult, and we can't judge it at all."
Gu Liancheng's voice gradually became deeper, as if he was as weak as a dying person.
"Whether it's handling a case or chasing a murderer, we can't just rely on passion, we must pay attention to evidence in everything."
"I don't deny that those couriers may be a vulnerable group in the eyes of others. If the boss doesn't pay them, it seems that they can only resist the injustice of fate in this way."
"But..."
Gu Liancheng suddenly stopped and turned to look at the young policeman.
The eyes in the deep sockets seem to have long lost the light that a person should have.
"Why do you think the Labor Law exists?"
"But... what if one day the law doesn't work at all? How do you know they didn't take such extreme measures out of desperation?!"
Even when facing the seniors he admired, the young policeman still insisted on his own opinion.
"As I said just now, the police are not messengers of justice. If your subjective emotions affect your judgment."
Gu Liancheng smiled softly, that smile looked very gentle.
Like the warm sun in the cold winter.
"Maybe you are a very good person."
"But you are not suitable to be a police officer..."
"This case is a good example. You know that the leader of this group of couriers was actually bribed, so he deliberately stirred up trouble, right?"
"Yes……"
Although he sympathized with these couriers, he still knew the most basic details of the case.
"Then the question is, how can you guarantee that the person who bribed Zhao Fangyuan didn't bribe anyone else?"
"I have seen the financial statements of Chaoyang Logistics Company."
"It can be said that there is no problem. There are clear records of every salary transfer."
The little policeman looked at Gu Liancheng in front of him, his face filled with astonishment.
"In other words, Ye Chen actually does not owe those people their wages?!"
Gu Liancheng nodded, came to the door of the police station, and took out a cigarette from his pocket.
The firelight flashed, and the smoke gradually obscured his stubbled face.
"Besides, if Ye Chen really acted first, Zhao Fangyuan should have called the police a long time ago."
"But why did we only receive the initial call from Ye Chen?"
"Their purpose is not at all for wages?!"
Gu Liancheng nodded.
"Most of the people in this group, like Zhao Fangyuan, have been bribed, and the so-called trouble is just a show for others to see."
"They don't care at all whether Chaoyang Logistics Company owed them wages. If Ye Chen really owed wages, they would be happier."
"So, their so-called testimony cannot be believed at all. After all, the reason why they gathered together in the first place was a lie."
"This case is a farce made up of lies from beginning to end, including the matter of the counterfeit pharmacy..."
"Although their direct target is not us."
"But in the end, we police officers were tricked after all..."
Gu Liancheng took off the cigarette butt and smiled bitterly.
"Then...didn't we arrest the wrong person?!"
After listening to Gu Liancheng's explanation, the young policeman was a little worried.
"How about we release Ye Chen now?"
"Need not."
What he didn't expect was that when faced with this proposal, Gu Liancheng still shook his head.
"Although the eyewitness testimony may be false, it is an indisputable fact that Ye Chen hit someone for whatever reason."
"Even though he talks about self-defense, I have never heard of a case where the victim beat the assailant into the hospital, but the victim was unharmed in self-defense..."
"But... is this really good? Ye Chen is obviously the victim..."
The little policeman was still a little uneasy.
"Why……"
The middle-aged uncle sighed heavily again.
"I have said many times that we are not messengers of justice, and these matters are not something we, the police, can have the final say on."
"What I just said is just my personal imagination."
"Maybe Ye Chen really owed those people their wages? Maybe the financial statement I saw was prepared by Ye Chen a long time ago just to fool our police?"
