You're cast as a villain, and you're supposed to teach the police how to solve cases?

Wu Heng smiled smugly, "These are all basic operations. No matter how cunning the fox is, it can't escape the hunter, hahaha."

[It's almost unbearable to watch.]

[If Expert Wu had seen the replay, wouldn't he have felt like dying?]

I'm increasingly impressed with Meng Yang now. He can simply hide next door and no one will find him. He's amazing.

Therefore, sometimes, the most dangerous places are the safest.

...

"Old Wu, it's up to you. As long as we find something in the test results, we can convict them."

Seeing Zhao's face flushed with excitement, Song Ci asked,

"Captain Zhao, how's the interrogation going? Any breakthroughs?"

The moment those words were spoken, the air became instantly awkward.

Team Leader Zhao's face flushed red and then turned pale; he was too embarrassed to talk about the interrogation that had just taken place.

"Oh, well, I'll try harder on the interrogation. Oh, right, Meng Yang said he still has beef bones in the pot at home and asked us to put them in the refrigerator for him."

Team Leader Zhao quickly changed the subject.

"The refrigerator is out of the question," Wu Heng said. "Because the body might have been dismembered, there might be human bones inside the cow bones, so we brought the cow bones back as evidence."

Upon hearing this, Captain Zhao's eyes widened in horror as he realized what had happened.

If it's a dismembered body, there might actually be that inside the cow bones.

I ate it that day.

Thinking of this, Captain Zhao could no longer hold back, covered his mouth and rushed into the toilet to start dry heaving.

[Oh, Captain Zhao, don't worry, the body's next door. You ate real beef.]

[Alas, poor Captain Zhao, he's suffered both physically and mentally.]

I feel like I'll have this psychological trauma for the rest of my life.

[I feel sorry for Captain Zhao for three seconds, that's all.]

[Team Leader Zhao is probably ready to strangle Meng Yang right now; he was so enthusiastic about feeding him that day.]

...

When Captain Zhao came out, his face had turned green.

"Old Wu, Little Song, work overtime tonight and make sure we get the test report out."

He just wants to know what he ate.

At night, everything returned to calm.

Lu Fei and Meng Yang were in the detention cell. Lu Fei was still a little unaccustomed to it, while Meng Yang had already fallen asleep.

Wu Heng and Song Ci are working hard to get the tests done.

Team Leader Zhao kept drinking water, trying to wash away the strange taste in his mouth that wasn't actually there.

Meanwhile, "The Ruthless Net" once again topped the trending searches.

However, the doubts surrounding the trio and the production team remain.

#The trio is a bit useless#

#Is there only three methods for interrogation?#

#Is there a script or not?#

The comments below are mostly critical.

What's going on? I seriously suspect this show is scripted. The trio was like they had divine help in the first few episodes, but now they're nothing.

[Exactly, those award-winning actors used to act so realistically, but their films still only lasted seven days at most, definitely because they didn't have enough time.]

The trio wasn't as impressive as people imagined; they were just put on an act.

[Haha, I didn't expect this. This time, the ordinary people didn't follow the script, and they were dumbfounded.]

...

"Director, look at these comments, they're all questioning us!" He Jiajia said, holding a tablet and looking like she was about to cry.

"We really didn't have a script, this is unfair to accuse us."

Zhang Cheng was completely overwhelmed; he hadn't expected this episode to have so many twists and turns.

Moreover, he just received a call from the station director. This episode has now attracted the attention of the police department. This is not a simple case-solving matter; it concerns the honor of the police force.

The station director was already under immense pressure; if it weren't for the show's immense popularity, he would have stopped it immediately.

"Alright, I'll talk to the station manager and see how to handle this."

That evening, a joint statement appeared in major official media outlets, signed by television stations and police departments, making it quite authoritative.

Recently, due to the popularity of the program "The Net Is Ruthless", some netizens have raised questions about the program's authenticity and the police's capabilities.

Thank you very much for your attention.

We hereby solemnly declare that all program content is unscripted. Everything is the actors' actual performance.

Regarding the doubts about the trio's abilities, we would like to say that solving cases is not like what is shown in movies. There are no super detectives. Only through our unremitting persistence and hard work can we bring criminals to justice.

Although the case has encountered some obstacles, it will not affect our determination to solve it.

Don't even mention ten days, even if it takes ten years, we will keep investigating until the murderer is caught!

We would also like to inform the public once again:

The net of Heaven is vast, its meshes are wide, yet nothing escapes it; all evil will ultimately vanish under the sunlight!

The statement, issued by state media and with the police station taking the blame, immediately suppressed the doubts circulating online, and public opinion shifted dramatically.

The official statement is quite fair. Solving cases is never easy; some cases take over a decade to solve, and some police officers dedicate their entire lives to investigating them. It's truly admirable.

To be honest, that's what makes it real. Just like the statement said, there aren't that many super detectives.

My father was also a policeman. I rarely saw him during holidays like Chinese New Year. The next time I saw him, it was in a photograph. Sometimes I didn't understand him, but I was also proud of him.

[To the person upstairs, salute your father!]

My heart goes out to the families of police officers; it's truly not easy.

Yes, sometimes the police work behind the scenes, doing what no one can see, like staking out for a month and eating instant noodles every day.

[It is also thanks to the tireless efforts and perseverance of our police officers that no one dares to commit crimes easily!]

...

Seeing the improved public opinion, Zhang Cheng was finally relieved.

But no one can guarantee that if the case isn't solved soon, it won't cause any more trouble.

Therefore, both companies have given Zhang a final deadline:

Twelve days!

The case must be solved within twelve days at most.

No matter what means are used.

This is a matter of direction, and it must be implemented.

Although Zhang Cheng wanted to persist, he knew that continuing like this would not be good for anyone, so he could only nod and accept it.

Now, all we can hope is that the trio can find clues in time and solve the case within twelve days.

.................

March 13th, the ninth day

Zhao spent the entire day waiting for the test results.

Although Lao Wu was working overtime, there was too much evidence, and the case had dragged on for so long. He didn't want to let a small oversight cause the case to remain unsolved.

Therefore, Lao Wu conducted the test very carefully, and it wasn't until the evening of the 13th that he took out the test report.

Looking at Lao Wu and Xiao Song's bloodshot eyes, Team Leader Zhao felt a pang of sympathy for his comrades, but now was the time to see the results, and these concerns had to be put aside for the time being.

"Old Wu, are the results in yet?"

Old Wu nodded, his voice hoarse, "They're out."
