Chapter 414 Giving the Victims Justice
Provincial Department.
The next day, Qi Tongwei continued to interrogate Chen Daju, while Huang Xiaolan, accompanied by her brother Huang Dahai, stood guard at the door of the interrogation room.
Chen Daju had stayed up all night, his face was greasy, his hair was messy, and his slicked-back hair had turned into a bird's nest. He was completely devoid of the arrogance of a gang leader.
With a loud slap, Qi Tongwei jolted the dazed Chen Daju awake. Huang Xiaolan, watching from outside, was terrified. She never imagined that the devilish Chen Daju would meet such an end, and her fear seemed to lessen somewhat.
"Chen Daju, how was it? Did you sleep well last night?"
Chen Daju stared blankly, listless, his voice hoarse. The lamp had been shining in his eyes all night, almost blinding him. He had just fallen asleep when he was woken up by a policeman's slap. This torment was repeated over and over again. It was a miracle that he survived one night.
What exactly do you want?
Oh, so he's backed down. He backed down in just one night. Qi Tongwei despises gang leaders like this; they're no fun at all.
"Then tell me, where do drugs come from?"
Chen Daju thought about it all night. Drug use was a less serious crime than drug trafficking. Of course, the most important thing was that he could escape the beatings from the police. As long as he got to the detention center, he could overturn the case and say that the police tortured him. Then Chenjiazhai would definitely be able to get him out.
"I'll talk, I'll talk, I used drugs, and I bought the drugs."
Qi Tongwei immediately pressed on, "So many drugs, that's no small amount. Who did you buy them from?"
Chen Daju looked miserable. "I don't know who it is. We only communicate by phone, and each time they send someone to deliver it to the nightclub's front desk."
Qi Tongwei slapped him hard across the face. "You son of a bitch, I told you to confess and get leniency, and this is the only excuse you could come up with all night? Do you think the police are idiots?"
Chen Daju was somewhat frightened by the beating. "Officer, I'm telling the truth. I admit to drug use and prostitution. I'll accept whatever punishment the government wants."
Qi Tongwei stretched and yawned. This gang leader had backed down, so he still had no psychological burden when it came to fighting.
"Okay, I'll give you some more time to think it over. Tell me what you did to Huang Xiaolan."
Violent rape is a serious crime, and coupled with drug use, it will definitely be punished more severely. After thinking about it, Chen Daju decided to stick to his guns and deny it.
"Officer, I don't know any Huang Xiaolan. All the girls in nightclubs look pretty much the same; I'm a little blind."
Hearing the devil's words from the doorway, Huang Xiaolan was so angry that she wanted to rush in and kill him. She couldn't sleep at all that night; all she could see when she closed her eyes was the terrifying image of Chen Daju, that devil, raping her.
Lan Ying supported the furious Huang Xiaolan, saying, "Don't be afraid, that scumbag can never hurt you again."
Qi Tongwei called Huang Xiaolan over to let her know that the person who hurt her was nothing special and would not escape legal punishment.
With a loud slap, Qi Tongwei slapped Chen Daju across the face again. "You son of a bitch, you're determined to suffer the consequences, aren't you?"
This slap made Huang Xiaolan feel particularly relieved, as if it were revenge for her, and she even had more courage to live on.
"Officer, I'm telling the truth, even if you kill me, I'll still say it."
Chen Daju stubbornly refused to admit it, hoping that if he held out a little longer, Chenjia Village might come to his rescue.
Qi Tongwei lit a cigarette. With the Ministry of Public Security in charge this time, he wasn't afraid at all. Anyway, what the higher-ups wanted was the result. As for the interrogation methods, they would definitely turn a blind eye.
"Let's see how long you can keep up your stubbornness."
As Qi Tongwei walked out of the interrogation room, he saw the intense anger in Huang Xiaolan's eyes. Victims are often terrified of seeing the people who hurt them. Only by bravely facing their inner demons can they hope to live a happy life; otherwise, they will live a life of pain and turmoil.
“Huang Xiaolan, you are the victim, you did nothing wrong, not a single thing wrong. Don’t be afraid of scum like Chen Daju. The long arm of the law will catch you. He’s a prisoner now. You can go in and slap him a few times.”
Huang Xiaolan gritted her teeth, risking her life, and said, "Officer Qi, I want to confront him face to face."
Okay, I promise you.
Qi Tongwei was very happy that Huang Xiaolan was able to bravely take the first step. As long as one has a clear conscience, why should one care about other people's opinions? And why should the victim be blamed?
Don't say that not sentencing violent rape to death is to protect the victim; under such humiliation, wouldn't the victim also want to die with her?
Huang Xiaolan took a deep breath, her body still trembling, but her eyes showed more determination and resolve. Officer Qi was right, she was the victim, she did nothing wrong, the one who was wrong was Chen Daju, the devil who hurt her.
When Chen Daju saw Huang Xiaolan walk into the interrogation room, his eyes still held contempt. She was just a filthy bitch; it was her good fortune to sleep with him. He felt a little unsatisfied.
Huang Xiaolan clenched her fists tightly, each step she took felt like it weighed a ton, and when she saw the devil's face, her body trembled even more violently.
She walked up to Chen Daju, mustered her courage, and raised her hand to slap the devil.
Chen Daju glared at her fiercely. The woman he had once slept with dared to hit him; the humiliation of that slap was far greater than a hundred slaps from a policeman. "You bitch, you're asking for it!"
"You devil, you are a devil!"
Slap! Slap! Slap! Slap! Slap! Huang Xiaolan vented her anger with a frenzy of slaps. This devil had ruined her life, and even dying a hundred times wouldn't erase the hatred in her heart.
Seeing that both of her hands were about to swell from hitting, Qi Tongwei gave her a look, and Lan Ying quickly hugged Huang Xiaolan, who was losing control of her emotions.
"Stop hitting him, this scum will dirty your hands."
Chen Daju's face, which had been swollen for a night, suddenly swelled up even more. "You're abusing your power and condoning this bitch's crimes!"
Huang Xiaolan wiped away her tears, and seemed to be reborn, her eyes filled with unwavering determination.
"Officer Qi, I want to sue this monster for kidnapping and raping me."
Chen Daju immediately yelled in a panic, "You filthy bitch, you're talking nonsense!"
Did I tell you to speak?
Qi Tongwei slapped Chen Daju hard across the face again. "Huang Xiaolan, you're very brave, you did the right thing. Take a statement right now."
"Thank you, Officer Qi."
Huang Xiaolan was filled with gratitude. After defeating the demon who had hurt her, she felt as if a powerful force was supporting her, and she would no longer think about seeking death.
Lan Ying took Huang Xiaolan out and desperately tried to get justice for the victims. She saw the light of justice shining from Qi Tongwei.
Chen Daju felt he hadn't lost yet; based on Huang Xiaolan's words alone, the police couldn't prosecute him without evidence.
Qi Tongwei exhaled a puff of smoke in frustration. The trauma of rape is hard to erase for a woman. He only hoped that Huang Xiaolan could truly let go of the past and find peace in the present.
Growing angrier by the thought, he suddenly grabbed Chen Daju by the neck and yelled, "You son of a bitch! You dare to do it but not admit it? Scum like you deserve to be torn to pieces!"
