Chapter 385 You and he do not have this right!
"What a noble sentiment, not needing to know. Then what are you here for! Are you living up to the uniform you're wearing?"
As a member of the system, Li Tian found this attitude detestable. Regardless of the outcome of the case, these two would most certainly be stripped of their roles!
"What are you being so arrogant for! Is doing something wrong a matter of pride for you? Let me tell you, if we find any of your fingerprints on Miss Sun's clothing, you can look forward to a few years behind bars!"
"Fine, fine, fine, you said it!"
Li Tian couldn't help but laugh out of extreme anger, and with a gesture of his hands said, "Come on then, arrest me!"
"Hmph, quite the haughty tone for a youngster. I hope you can be this defiant when the court hands down your sentence!"
The older law enforcement officer waved his hand and commanded, "Take them all away!"
"So you're the principal of this school, and you can't even protect your own students right before your eyes. I wonder how you've managed to be a principal!"
As they were leaving, the elder law enforcement official said to the principal, "If Qian Qian's parents decide not to hold you accountable, that's good for you, but if they do, I'll tell you there are many eying your position!"
...
Song Yun looked around the interrogation room with curiosity. He had always been a well-behaved person, and had never set foot in a police station, let alone an interrogation room.
He never expected to have such a novel experience due to an unexpected turn of events today!
He just wondered what the expressions on these people's faces would be if they knew his identity.
"Name!"
"Song Yun!"
"Age!"
"26!"
"Hmph, at the prime of life, and yet you choose to walk the path of crime!"
"Gender!"
"Come on, do you really have to ask me that?"
"No nonsense! Gender!"
"Male!"
"Do you know why you've been brought in?"
"Because I did a good deed?"
The interrogators couldn't help but laugh at Song Yun's words.
One of them pointed at Song Yun's nose and scolded, "Stop playing games with me! 'Confess leniently, resist strictly,' haven't you heard that saying?"
"Besides, don't think we're ignorant. Miss Sun's clothes have been taken away by colleagues from the forensic department, and we'll have the results in half an hour. By then, confessing your crimes won't be so simple!"
"Come on, if you know everything, why bother asking me?"
Song Yun said indifferently, "No matter how many times you ask, my answer is the same, I'm here precisely because I did a good deed!"
"Alright, since you claim to have done a good deed, why don't you tell us what it was? Did we arrest you for helping an old lady across the street, or for acting bravely for a just cause?"
"Hey, hey, hey! You've hit the nail on the head, it was for acting bravely for a just cause!"
Song Yun quickly responded, "I'm cooperating with your work, but you should at least try to understand the reasons why!"
"Hmph! Then continue, what kind of brave act did you do?"
Song Yun recounted the entire incident in detail. The two interrogators exchanged looks, and suddenly one of them slammed the table, shouting, "Even now you keep spouting nonsense! You claim Miss Sun assaulted a student, where's your evidence?"
"Aren't my eyes evidence?"
Song Yun asked, somewhat surprised.

"Every suspected criminal says they haven't committed a crime. Does that mean we should release all of them? Tell you what, cut the tricks!"
The interrogator shouted angrily, "Unlawful confinement, kidnapping, attempted indecency—you know that if these charges are combined, you'll be looking at ten years by the time you get out!"
"Yes, you'd better just confess to your crimes. You could even inform on your accomplices' illegal behaviors, and we can consider that as merit to offset your crimes. That way, you might only have to spend two or three years inside at most."
"You're still so young; if you get locked up for that long, your life is over. Now is not the time for honor among thieves. If you talk too slowly, maybe one of your accomplices will rat you out any minute!"
"So what would you like to hear?"
Song Yun knew these two were dead set on those two points, so no matter what he said, it wouldn't make any difference. Perhaps Qian Qian's parents had already arranged everything, and whether or not he and his friends spoke up, they were all destined for a trip to jail.
"We want to hear how you met Miss Sun and developed a criminal mindset. And during the process, what you intended to do to Miss Sun."
"Sorry, but I'm not a novelist. You want me to make up things that I never did?"
Song Yun shrugged and responded casually.
"Stubbornly unenlightened! You keep watch over him, I need to step out for a bit."
One interrogator stood up and left the room.
Outside, he discussed with the others in the interrogation room and realized everyone stuck to their story of innocence and bravery.
After gathering all the information, he entered the office of the superior.
"Have you gotten a confession yet?"
"Not yet, we can only wait for the final results from the forensic department."
"There's no need to wait, the results are already in, Miss Sun's clothes bear the fingerprints of that Ouyang Jie. You can use that as a breakthrough."
"Yes, Sir!"
After relaying the news to his colleagues, the interrogator returned to the interrogation room.
As soon as he entered, he threw a stack of documents in front of Song Yun and said coldly, "Take a look, the fingerprints on Miss Sun's clothes have been matched. What else do you have to say now?"
"I have nothing to say—if you can't hear my side, that's not my problem. Do what you will," Song Yun said, showing signs of impatience.
He should have been happy today; after seeing the leader inside the Red Wall, he was to meet with Elder Ouyang for a meal and head back to Magic Capital later.
Now it seemed like his schedule had changed drastically, and he had no idea how long he would be stuck here.
"Ring, ring, ring!"
"Ring, ring, ring!"
Song Yun's phone rang in his pocket, and the interrogators exchanged glances as they fished the phone out and answered the call.
"Hey Song Yun, why haven't you come back yet? This old man has been waiting for a long time," came the cheery voice of Elder Ouyang over the phone.
"Who are you to Song Yun?"
"Hm?"
Elder Ouyang, not hearing the familiar voice, was taken aback and quickly asked, "Who are you? Why do you have Song Yun's phone?"
"I'm Officer X from the Pingyang District Police Station. Song Yun has been arrested for criminal offenses."
"Impossible! Hand the phone to Song Yun; I need to speak with him personally!"
"Nothing is impossible. The evidence is conclusive. Unless there's an accident, Song Yun and his companions will be transferred to the detention center tonight. As for you wanting to talk to Song Yun, sorry, neither of you have that right!"
