Chapter 230: 2030 Make him confess
Xia Chengzong’s fury seed to have subsided slightly.
In the listening device, as soon as Xia Chengzu heard this, he frantically bellowed at Aunt Xia, “Mom, what nonsense are you spouting? How could I possibly kill soone?”
“Mom, do you not trust ? The second son is unreliable, a scourge on society, a hoodlum; do you actually believe him over ?”
Xia Chengzu’s words were clearly leading.
After so manipulation, Xia Chengzu again said indignantly, “I have no idea who killed the person!”
“In any case, it wasn’t who killed them!”
The tone was utterly shaless.
Imdiately, Grandma Xia began to sooth her dear grandson and scolded Aunt Xia, “Is that any way for a mother to act? Suspecting your own son!”
“We all know what kind of person Chengzu is. He’s never even killed a chicken or a duck, so how could he kill a person?”
“It’s Chengzong, though, who’s always mingling with shady characters. Who knows how many bad habits he’s picked up!”
“This thing, it’s highly likely related to him, and now Chengzu ends up locked up because of him!”
“Besides, even if it wasn’t him who did it, Chengzu is right; let the second son confess first, then when the Police Station releases Chengzu, Xia Chuyi can go and save him, so what’s the harm in that?”
Listening in, Chang Luhui beca frustrated, “What is this old lady thinking? Does she think the Police Station is a teahouse where you can co and go as you please, totally disregarding the law?”
Xia Chuyi offered him an apologetic smile.
Indeed, this blatant legal ignorance was a trait of her own relatives.
Chang Luhui was just venting—after all, ignorance of the law was common these days.
In the listening device, with Grandma Xia’s protection, Xia Chengzu was brazen, “Look, it doesn’t matter who killed the person; the key is, since the police have captured us, it ans they have to choose one of us to make an example of, force a confession, with or without evidence! The police always do this!”
Xia Chengzu had the audacity to shift the bla to the police.
This imdiately drove Chang Luhui into a rage, he couldn’t help but curse, “This bastard!”
No sooner had he sworn than he rembered this man was still Xia Chuyi’s relative, and cursing him was like cursing Xia Chuyi, so he bit his tongue and shut his mouth.
Lately, he made up his mind to take this bastard down a peg or two!
“So, since soone has to be forced to confess anyway, it might as well be the second son admitting his guilt first. After that, once the police release , Xia Chuyi can just get him out as well!”
Just by listening to the sound of his voice, one could imagine that the more Xia Chengzu spoke, the more he believed he was right.
In the end, only Xia Chengzong asked again, “Besides, between the two of us, if soone really did commit a cri, do you think it looks like it was ?”
It was yet another clear hint and direction.
Upon hearing this, Grandma Xia imdiately said, “Chengzu, Grandma certainly trusts you! If we’re talking about doing wrong, Chengzong is the one who looks like he’s up to no good; he should be the one to confess!”
Grandma Xia’s words were decisive.
“Besides, with Xia Chuyi around, he won’t co to any harm.”
“From the eldest’s family, you mustn’t be biased! Don’t let Chengzong drag Chengzu down!”
The grandmother and grandson took turns speaking ill of Xia Chengzong.
In the end, Aunt Xia could no longer restrain herself and said, “Alright, I understand.”
“Both the palm and the back of the hand are flesh… I will persuade Chengzong to confess.”
In the surveillance room, there was silence.
Chang Luhui looked at Xia Chengzong with sympathy: he finally understood why Xia Chuyi had staged this play.
Sitting next to him, Xia Chengzong, who had been red-eyed with anger, had his rage extinguished in an instant, and along with it, sothing else seed to fade away… He clenched his jaw, standing stiffly on the spot, his fists clenched tightly, his complexion ashen.
