Chapter 400 Being Interrogated
Gui'er said she wasn't afraid, but that was a lie. However, she couldn't back down. She turned to the man in the middle and said, "Good man, I haven't offended you. If you want money, go to my family. My eldest brother works in the Executive Yuan. His name is Sha Yanyao."
The three of them were stunned for a moment, looked at each other, and the man in the middle said, "Does your brother really work in the Executive Yuan?"
Gui'er guessed that these three people were probably small fry and didn't know her background. This made it easier to deal with her. She quickly said to them, "Yes, do you know Director Wang? His newlywed wife is my sister."
The three people looked at each other, and the one next to them who was not recording walked out. The one in the middle asked Gui'er, "Do you know why you are here?"
Gui'er shook her head blankly. "Aren't you kidnappers? I was kidnapped when I was little, and my family released me after paying the ransom. Don't worry, they'll pay it this time too, as long as you don't hurt me."
The remaining two people exchanged glances, stood up and walked out the door.
After a while, there was a faint sound of voices outside the door. Guier quickly tilted her head and stretched her neck to listen.
"Damn it! Xu Wenjie is so mean! Why would he let us interrogate her? She's the family of a high-ranking official. It would be strange if we weren't tortured to death."
"No, it seems Xu Wenjie wanted to conduct the interrogation himself, but Director Zhou wouldn't let him, saying it was a related person. I should have thought of it earlier. Xu Wenjie's father used to be a high-ranking official, and the people he knows must also have a high-ranking official background."
"What if I hurt her?"
After that, their voices became quieter and quieter, until Guier could hardly hear them.
After a while, they came in again, this time much more polite than before. They walked up to Guier and said, "You have a head injury. Let's take you to heal first."
Guier followed them to the infirmary where she woke up at the beginning. It turned out that they brought her back without any treatment at all. They just wanted the doctor to check whether she was dead or not and make sure she could wake up.
She secretly cursed their eight generations of ancestors in her heart, but did not dare to show it on her face.
When we got to the infirmary, the man in the white coat said, "Wow, how did you get it back again?"
The leader said, "Please help her take care of the wound on her head first."
The man in the white coat glanced at Gui'er and said, "Oh, I see. You see, she's young and beautiful, and she knows how to be gentle and considerate, right?"
"Stop talking nonsense and hurry up, we still have to interrogate him."
The man in the white coat took some hemostatic liquid and applied it to Guier, then applied some disinfectant, and then applied some cotton and adhesive tape. Guier felt a little relieved, at least she would not continue to bleed.
Afterwards, the three of them took Guier back to the interrogation room and officially began the interrogation.
The person sitting in the middle said, "Sha Guier, what is your relationship with Liu Wenyuan?"
Gui'er was a little confused: "Who is Liu Wenyuan?"
"Owner of Liu's Pharmacy, don't play dumb. You went to their store every day during the New Year."
Guier realized that something must have happened to Shopkeeper Liu. Did Shopkeeper Liu betray her? Probably not. She believed that Shopkeeper Liu was not that kind of person. Besides, if Shopkeeper Liu really betrayed her, what would be the point of him betraying her? She didn't know any intelligence.
Gui'er thought about it and realized that she went to Manager Liu's place to learn medicine almost every day in Jiangcheng. She even helped with the consultation in the store during the winter vacation. This situation was known not only to Manager Liu and his wife, but also to the surrounding stores and even the people who went to the store to get medicine. It was not necessarily what Manager Liu said. Since that was the case, she might as well deny it. As long as it was not confirmed by Manager Liu himself, they had absolutely no evidence.
Thinking of this, she said calmly: "Indeed, I often go to him as an apprentice and learn medicine from him. Manager Liu is a very good doctor. Is there any problem with this?"
The man in the middle said, "He's a gangster, did you know that?"
Gui Er was stunned for a moment, then pretended to be very surprised and said, "How is this possible? Although Shopkeeper Liu is a very skilled doctor, he is very timid. He usually stays in the store and is very cautious every time he goes out of town to buy medicinal herbs. How could he be a bad guy?"
The three of them looked at each other, and the one taking notes asked, "Do you know where he gets the herbs?"
Gui'er pondered for a moment and said, "It depends mainly on the medicinal materials. If they are available locally, he will try to buy them from those herbalists in the countryside. For the more valuable ginseng and deer antlers, he will go out of town to purchase them. I haven't asked him where they are specifically because I'm a girl, and even if I knew, it wouldn't be convenient for me to go there, so I didn't bother to ask."
Now Guier is 100% sure that something must have gone wrong with Manager Liu, but she can't guess the specific situation. She has to get herself out of it first. She is quite confident about this, after all, she has not participated in the core operations.
If he could get away, he would have to inform Jiangcheng immediately. Perhaps Xu Wenjie should have already informed them. He didn't know if it affected Manager Zhang and Song Xichen. Gui'er seemed calm on the surface, but she was actually very anxious inside.
"So who usually goes to his shop? Or everyone who has contact with Liu Wenyuan, you must provide us with a list."
"That's probably a bit difficult. Shopkeeper Liu usually treats patients in the store, or he goes out to buy medicinal herbs. People who come to the store are naturally here to get medicine and see a doctor. They are all customers. We don't ask people to leave their names. As for those who provide the herbs, I don't know them well. There are only a few people who collect herbs nearby and they will deliver the medicine to the store themselves. You can find out who these people are by asking Shopkeeper Liu."
A few people looked at each other, and seeing that they couldn't get anything out of Gui'er, they closed their notebooks and left.
Gui'er breathed a sigh of relief, but how could she get out of this situation?
Just as she was racking her brains to find a solution, the iron gate clanged and a man in a suit with a slicked-back hair walked in. The three people followed behind him. It seemed that this man should be their boss.
The man with the slicked-back hair came up to Guier and glanced at her.
Guier saw that the man was about 1.8 meters tall, and even in a suit, one could still see his muscular body. He had triangular eyes and thin lips. Although his eyes were not big, there was always a ruthlessness in his eyes.
He suddenly raised his hand and tore off the gauze on Guier's head. Guier screamed "Ah" in pain.
The man grinned and said, "They are afraid of high-ranking officials, but I am not. You better behave yourself. I like tender and delicate little girls like you the most." As he said that, he reached out and unbuttoned the first button of Guier's school uniform cheongsam.
Gui'er was stunned for a moment, and a burst of anger burst out from her chest. Without caring about anything else, she lowered her head and bit his hand hard. The pain was so severe that he quickly pulled his hand back.
Guier felt a salty taste in her mouth, probably because she had bitten his hand.
