"She confessed to something."

Officer Li opened the statement. "Last Friday, student Fu Hua was attacked near the library."

Five vagrants surrounded her; this was instigated by Fu Chaochao.

"What?!"

Su Yurou suddenly stood up. "Impossible! Absolutely impossible! Chaochao is so kind, how could she do such a thing?! Zhou Rong must be framing her!"

"Comrade Su, we have evidence."

Officer Li's voice was stern. "Zhou Rong has given a statement that she received five hundred yuan from Fu Chaochao, along with two new pieces of clothing."

The label is still there, and...

He paused, then added, "Zhou Rong also relayed Fu Chaochao's exact words, and there's a recording as proof."

He picked up the notebook and read it aloud, word by word:

"Find someone to take care of that bitch Fu Hua. Kill her and sell her, it doesn't matter. Just don't let her ever show her face in front of me again..."

"Bang!"

Su Yurou's legs went weak, and she slumped back into her chair, her face deathly pale.

She shook her head, muttering, "Impossible, impossible... Chaochao wouldn't say such a thing... She wouldn't do such a thing, she's very kind."

Fu Xiao was also stunned.

He stared at the record, at the confession written in black and white, his mind blank.

You can kill them and sell them, it's all fine.

This is the one he raised for seventeen years.

What could his daughter, who always calls him "Dad" with a gentle smile, possibly say?

No wonder Huahua came home so late last Friday night.

When he asked her why she was so late, she didn't say a word that she had encountered bad people.

He didn't say a word.

When a child encounters such a life-or-death situation,

They don't want to talk to their parents about it?

How utterly unsuccessful were they as parents?!

"Where is Fu Chaochao?"

The moment Fu Xiao looked up, his face darkened.

"We've already sent people to the school, and our people will bring Fu Chaochao over to cooperate with the investigation."

Officer Li continued, "If the evidence is conclusive, this could constitute incitement to intentional injury, or even... more serious crimes."

"No...no..."

Su Yurou suddenly grabbed Officer Li's arm.

"Officer Li, there must be a mistake. Chaochao must have been deceived by Zhou Rong. She's so naive, how could she...do such a thing? I don't believe my daughter would do such a thing!"

"Comrade Su,"

Officer Li gently pushed her hand away. "Zhou Rong's statement is very detailed, including how Fu Chaochao contacted her, how she gave the money, and how she explained the details. This doesn't seem like she was scammed."

Now all we need to do is wait for the recording device to be fully repaired, and then we'll have a complete chain of evidence.

There was no need for Fu Chaochao to give a confession.

He paused for a moment: "Moreover, according to Zhou Rong's confession, this is not the first time Fu Chaochao has targeted Fu Hua."

Regarding the previous school rumor incident, although Zhou Rong was the main disseminator, the source... was also Fu Chaochao.

These words were like the last straw, breaking Su Yurou's spirit.

She slumped into the chair, tears streaming silently down her face.

He kept repeating, "How could this be... how could this be..."

Fu Xiao took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down: "Officer Li, how much longer until she arrives...?"

"They should already be on their way."

Officer Li glanced at his watch. "Commander Fu, Comrade Su, I hope you are mentally prepared."

If the testimony is true, this case... will be very serious.

Ten minutes later, Fu Chaochao was brought in.

She wasn't handcuffed; considering she was a student and the child of a soldier, the police gave her leeway.

But two female police officers followed her on either side, their attitude clearly that they were escorting her.

Fu Chaochao's eyes were red and swollen, and her hair was disheveled.

When she saw Fu Xiao and Su Yurou, she immediately burst into tears: "Dad, Mom, they've wronged me! Zhou Rong is talking nonsense! I didn't... I didn't do anything either!"

"Every morning!"

Su Yurou rushed over to hug her, but was stopped by the police.

"Comrade Su, please cooperate with our work."

Fu Chaochao was taken into another interrogation room.

Fu Xiao and Su Yurou were placed in the observation room next door.

You can see what's happening inside the interrogation room through the one-way glass.

Officer Li personally interrogated the suspect.

"Fu Chaochao, Zhou Rong has confessed everything. On December 5th, you gave her 12 yuan and two new outfits, asking her to find someone to deal with Fu Hua. Is that true?"

"No!"

Fu Chaochao cried, her face streaked with tears. "Zhou Rong hates me because I didn't help her when she was expelled... She framed me!"

"How do you explain the five hundred yuan in cash? And your new clothes, the style of which is nothing like Zhou Rong's."

"The money...that's...that's the money she borrowed from me!"

Fu Chaochao had a flash of inspiration.

"She said she needed the money urgently at home, so I lent it to her. I don't know what she did with it..."

Officer Li stared at her for a few seconds, then suddenly changed the subject: "Number 5, where were you between 5 PM and 7 PM?"

Fu Chaochao was stunned for a moment: "I...I'm at home. I'll do my homework when I get back on Friday."

"Does anyone have proof?"

"Aunt Liu! Aunt Liu can testify!"

Fu Chaochao felt like she had grasped at a straw.

"I practice piano at home, and my housekeeper, Aunt Liu, is in the kitchen the whole time!"

Officer Li gestured for the recorder to write it down.

Then he pulled out a piece of paper from the folder: "But according to our investigation, your Aunt Liu was not home that afternoon. Someone saw her return home in the evening."

Fu Chaochao's face turned deathly pale instantly.

"Student Fu Chaochao,"

Officer Li's voice turned cold.

"Every word you say now will be recorded. Perjury is a crime and you will be held legally responsible."

"I...I remembered it wrong..."

Fu Chaochao hurriedly corrected herself, "I might have gone to the library... Yes, I went to the library!"

Which library?

"...something near the school..."

"Exact location? Is there a borrowing record? Did anyone see you?"

A barrage of questions came crashing down on Fu Chaochao, leaving her completely overwhelmed.

She cried even harder and began to stammer, "I...I really forgot...maybe I remembered the time wrong...Officer Li, please believe me, I really didn't do anything wrong."

In the observation room, Su Yurou watched Fu Chaochao's flustered appearance, and her heart sank little by little.

She understands Fu Chaochao.

This child becomes incoherent when nervous, and blinks incessantly when lying.

Now, behind the one-way glass, Fu Chaochao blinks rapidly.

Fu Xiao also noticed it.

He clenched his fist, his nails digging into his palm.

As expected, someone else's child is impossible to raise properly.

There was a knock on the interrogation room door.

A rectangular black object was delivered by the police.

It's a voice recorder.

Officer Li waved the object in his hand: "Fu Chaochao, I'll give you one more chance. Tell me exactly what you said to Zhou Rong, word for word."

Fu Chaochao glanced at the recording pen and felt a chill run down her spine.

Impossible, she only went to see Zhou Rong on a whim that day.

She couldn't possibly be recording.

Moreover, Zhou Rong didn't have the means to buy a voice recorder.

The police are definitely just trying to scare people.

Fu Chaochao quickly calmed down and shook her head in denial: "I didn't. What Zhou Rong said is not credible."

Officer Li sighed and pressed play.

Fu Chaochao's voice came through the microphone.

Calm and ruthless!

"Find someone to take care of that bitch Fu Hua, kill her and sell her, it doesn't matter..."

Fu Chaochao froze.
