The young woman looked at Li Jianmin and burst into tears. Lin Ying, Fatty Xu, Yuan Xiong, and the others got up and left the interrogation room. Now, it was all up to her.

"Brother!" the girl cried out in anguish. Then, she rushed over, hugged Li Jianmin tightly, and burst into tears.

Li Jianmin quickly hugged his younger sister, Li Ruxue, and asked repeatedly, "What's wrong, Ruxue? What's wrong, Ruxue?"

Li Ruxue just cried without saying a word, letting out all the grievances she had suffered these past few days.

Li Jianmin lost both his parents at a young age and relied on his younger sister, Li Ruxue, for support. Although he was ten years older than his sister, they had always had a good relationship. However, later, he became the captain of the criminal investigation team and married Pan Liting. Pan Liting said that it was inconvenient for such an older sister-in-law to live at home, so he asked someone to arrange for his sister to work in a rural police station as a clerk.

He didn't understand what had happened, or what had happened to his sister.

"Sis, what happened? Say something! What's wrong?"

Li Jianmin kept asking questions, and Li Ruxue cried even harder. Li Jianmin knew that something serious must have happened, otherwise his sister wouldn't be crying so bitterly.

After crying for a long time, Li Ruxue finally stopped. She looked up at Li Jianmin with a face full of grief and indignation: "Brother, don't ask anymore. I'm fine. Just don't tell Director Liu that I'm your sister again."

"Chief Liu, you mean Liu Taotao?" Liu Taotao is Liu Yixiong's brother-in-law, and he's greedy by nature. He knows Liu Yixiong has a good relationship with him, so he had Liu Taotao take care of Ruxue. Could it be...?

He grabbed his sister's shoulders: "Look at me and tell me the truth, did Liu Taotao bully you?"

"Brother, please stop asking, please stop asking, I beg you, please stop asking." Li Ruxue just kept crying, tears streaming down her face uncontrollably. Li Jianmin knew that his sister must have been bullied, that something serious must have happened, otherwise, she wouldn't be so heartbroken.

"Alright, alright, I won't ask, I won't ask. And stop crying, stop crying. By the way, how did you get here?"

"It was Director Lin who picked me up, no, to be precise, she sent people to rescue me." Tears welled up in Li Ruxue's eyes again. Li Jianmin felt as if a thousand ants were biting his heart, but he dared not ask any more questions.

"What exactly happened?" Li Jianmin asked with concern in his eyes.

Li Ruxue hesitated for a moment before slowly revealing the truth. Upon hearing this, Li Jianmin completely lost his composure and roared, "Damn it, Liu Yixiong, you bastard, I'll kill him!"

It turned out that Liu Yixiong had sent men to target Li Jianmin's sister, Li Ruxue. Liu Taotao, her brother-in-law, spearheaded the attack, detaining Li Ruxue in the police station for a day and a night. That very night, they attempted to rape her, but Lin Ying's men arrived in time and rescued her. The next day, three men sent by Liu Yixiong tried to take Li Ruxue away again, but they were caught red-handed by Lin Ying's remaining men. Li Ruxue, a recent college graduate with little life experience, had never experienced anything like this before. That night, in the police station, she was almost stripped naked; her life was almost ruined.

Upon hearing this, Li Jianmin's illusions about Liu Yixiong were completely shattered. He never expected that Liu Yixiong would be so shameless as to attack his family, and even make his own brother-in-law do such a beastly thing. Li Jianmin was so angry that his teeth itched.

Outside, Lin Ying stared coldly at the screen, watching Li Jianmin and Li Ruxue's performance, and couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

"Boss, Li Ruxue is out. Li Jianmin is demanding to see you." Fatty Xu was now completely in awe of Lin Ying's scheme. If Lin Ying hadn't sent someone to find Li Ruxue in advance, and if they hadn't arrived in time, the consequences would have been unimaginable. Li Jianmin would have gone crazy.

No one can predict what the consequences would be if the head of a criminal investigation team went insane.

When Lin Ying re-entered the interrogation room, Li Ruxue had already left. Li Jianmin looked up at Lin Ying, his expression incredibly complex. He hated Lin Ying because she was the reason he was arrested. But when he saw Lin Ying remain calm and composed when being chased by Wang Dalong and Liu Yixiong's men, and even when facing a group of thugs and assassins, she was able to handle the situation with ease and escape unscathed, he, as a fellow policeman, couldn't help but feel a surge of admiration. He knew he could never have done that.

He had to admit that Lin Ying was indeed outstanding, and commanded respect. However, it was this very woman who had driven him into a corner, and now she had saved his younger sister. Li Jianmin felt his mind was in turmoil.

"The person behind you is Liu Yixiong, right?" Lin Ying went straight to the point. As long as Li Jianmin wasn't a fool or a cold-blooded animal, he wouldn't be indifferent to Li Ruxue's plight.

Li Jianmin nodded slowly: "Yes."

"The deaths of the previous three county magistrates were all related to you, and also to Liu Yixiong, right?" Lin Ying glanced at Li Jianmin again. She found it hard to imagine that a criminal police detachment captain not only broke the law but also personally participated in the murders. This person was simply lawless.

"No, to be precise, I was only involved in the cases of County Magistrate Ji Xiaoqing and County Magistrate Gao Lan. I don't know much about the death of the first county magistrate."

"Who ordered you to commit these two crimes?"

"Liu Yixiong, he ordered me to do all of this, and he even gave me a specific plan. Wang Dalong's men were responsible for cooperating in both cases, and I was responsible for leading people in. However, I did not personally cause the death of County Chief Ji; I was only responsible for the aftermath."

"What about the death of County Magistrate Gao Lan? Did you personally carry out that?"

"...Yes." Li Jianmin admitted with difficulty. Whether he admitted it or not, Lao Liang had seen it, and there was also a recording. In addition, Lu Xiujuan's forensic report was enough to prove everything. Gao Lan certainly did not commit suicide.

"Gao Lan was beaten to death, right? All the bones in her body were broken, weren't they?" Lin Ying stared intently at Li Jianmin. She couldn't understand why Li Jianmin, a policeman, would be so cruel, using such vicious methods to treat a county magistrate.

Li Jianmin took a deep breath and slowly exhaled: "The ones who beat people were a few Burmese men; we didn't do anything."

"But you just watched, didn't you? You just watched a woman be beaten, violated, and even abused by a bunch of beasts right in front of you, didn't you?"

Li Jianmin lowered his head in shame, his expression turning extremely ugly. It was true; he was an accomplice of the criminals, an associate of the perpetrator.

Lin Ying's eyes were sharp as knives, as if she wanted to pierce through Li Jianmin. The latter looked extremely nervous, knowing that he had no way out.

Li Jianmin slowly revealed a secret, and Lin Ying's expression changed.
