Mysterious Séancer: My Doll Can Really Show Its Power

"No! Impossible!"

"That kid is capable; he often rides in my car. He won't abandon me!"

"No way!"

The middle-aged man didn't believe the white-haired man's words at all. He got up from the ground and tried to run into the airport, but the special police officers who came up behind him grabbed him and took off his sunglasses and mask.

Qin Hao and Chen Tao stepped forward and compared the photo on the wanted poster with the real person's photo.

The result was nothing like it.

But neither of them was surprised. If they really looked alike, why hadn't he found them after hiding for ten years?

Qin Hao joked, "Liu Yun, where did you get your plastic surgery done? The technique is pretty impressive!"

"I...I'm not Liu Yun, and I've never trafficked anyone. You...you've arrested the wrong person!"

The middle-aged man was still trying to defend himself, so Chen Tao said to him, "Don't worry, if we really arrested the wrong person, we'll compensate you. Let's go!"

As the police left with their men, Chao Gexue glanced at the airport passageway behind her and said to Bai Mao, "Your idol has already returned to Zhongzhou. Would you like to come with me to observe the interrogation?"

"Interrogation on the spot?"

White Hair was somewhat surprised: "It's just a human trafficker, why are you taking it so seriously?"

"Human traffickers?"

Chaoge Xue sighed, "He doesn't have the ability to become a human trafficker."

Bai Mao looked at Chao Gexue in confusion and asked, "What do you mean? Didn't you just say he was trafficking people?"

The little fox nodded and said, "Yes, but trafficking people doesn't necessarily mean he's a human trafficker."

White Hair: "..."

Airport Security Division, interrogation room.

This wasn't originally an interrogation room, but a small conference room.

However, because there were quite a few people who came to observe the proceedings today, the airport security department temporarily converted this place into an interrogation room.

There was an iron chair for the suspect to sit on, and opposite it was a table. Behind the table were two chairs for the interrogators.

This is the standard equipment for an interrogation room.

But today, in addition to the usual table and chairs, there are several extra chairs placed next to the table and on both sides of the interrogation room.

By the time the interrogation began, the room was already full of people.

Chaoge Xue and Bai Mao sat next to the two interrogators. On the other two sides sat people from the Xia Kingdom's official residence, the Shanghai police, and Long Shisan from the Yanjing Dragon Group, who had met Bai Mao before.

Besides these, there was also a bald old monk and an old Taoist priest with white hair and a youthful face.

Li Bai, who had rushed back from the grasslands overnight, stood behind the old Taoist priest with his sword on his back, not daring to breathe loudly.

Looking at the large number of people present, Bai Mao's expression gradually turned serious as he looked at the uncle sitting in the iron chair.

He seemed to have guessed something.

The interrogation was conducted by two criminal investigation team leaders, Qin Hao and Chen Tao.

After asking the usual questions about his name and occupation, Chen Tao showed the uncle a photo of a child and asked, "Liu Yun, do you recognize this child?"

Liu Yun kept his head down, not daring to look at the child in the photo.

Bai Mao glanced to the side and noticed that the old monk, the old Taoist priest, and Mr. Long Shisan had all turned their heads away, not looking at the child in the photo.

He shook his head and said, "No, I don't know him! I'm telling you, you've arrested the wrong person!"

Chen Tao: "Oh? You don't know Liu Chengcheng?"

Upon hearing the name, Liu Yun shuddered violently, his movements so exaggerated that the iron chair he was sitting on shook.

"Liu Yun, raise your head."

Chen Tao's tone was slow but extremely authoritative, but Liu Yun stubbornly kept his head down, saying, "N-I don't know him—"

"look up!"

Chen Tao suddenly shouted, startling Liu Yun!

He instinctively looked up, and Chen Tao pointed to the child in the photo and asked, "Tell me! Do you recognize him?!"

Liu Yun was trembling with fear. He opened his mouth, then closed it again, not saying a word.

Beside Chen Tao, Qin Hao, who was in charge of taking the statement, slowly said, "We've already invited you here. Didn't you see the scene when we picked you up at the airport today? Dozens of armed special police!"

"Do you think you can get away with this by not speaking up?"

Chen Tao softened his tone and said softly, "Liu Yun, just confess. You've been hiding under a different name for ten years, living in constant fear like a rat. It must have been tough, right?"

Qin Hao: "There are so many intersections and so many surveillance cameras in Zhongzhou. You drive a taxi every day. How worrying must you be? Seeing the police officers patrolling the streets, you probably can't even enjoy your meals, right? Tell me, just confess. Now you can be considered to have turned yourself in."

Chen Tao turned and stared at Qin Hao.

The latter blinked, immediately understood, and quickly changed his tune, saying, "Sorry, sorry! I'm just used to saying it. This doesn't count as you turning yourself in, because you've been on the run for ten years."

"But it can be considered that you actively cooperated, which will be beneficial to the subsequent sentencing."

Chen Tao continued, picking up where Qin Hao left off: "Selling a child won't get you the death penalty. It'll be five to ten years. If you cooperate, it'll be five years; if you don't, it'll be ten years. The choice is yours."

With the two of them working together, Liu Yun's initially resolute gaze gradually wavered. "Really... really only five years?"

Chen Tao picked up another photo, pointed to the person in it, and said, "Zhang Hui, you know him, right? He was in jail before, and he came out after five years."

"He's only had five years?!"

Liu Yun exclaimed excitedly, "Yes, I remember! Sir, how come he only got five years? He should have been sentenced to death!"

Chen Tao put down the photo in his hand. "Oh, you know me?"

Liu Yun kept asking, "Wait, sir, why was Zhang Hui only sentenced to five years? That doesn't make sense!"

"How many years he gets sentenced is none of your business! This is your problem!"

Chen Tao picked up the child's photo again and asked, "Look here! Tell me, do you recognize him?!"

Staring at the child in the photo, Liu Yun was frozen in place, remaining silent for a long time before tears gradually streamed down his face.

"To recognize, to know..."

Qin Hao lowered his head to take a statement, and Chen Tao asked, "Who is he? What's your relationship with him?"

"His name is Liu Chengcheng, and his nickname is Chengcheng."

"It's my son."

......

The night wind rattled the windows of the interrogation room.

A deathly silence fell over the interrogation room.

The atmosphere seemed to freeze.

No one spoke, no one made any move. Qin Hao, who was taking notes, was trembling; he couldn't write a single word.

Chen Tao, who was in charge of the interrogation, couldn't utter a single word.

He turned his head and looked around, then looked at Qin Hao, and finally looked at Chao Gexue, who represented the Special Administration Bureau, and the official representative sitting next to her.

Chen Tao's meaning was clear. He gestured to the group: Should we continue the interrogation?

In the interrogation room, the old Taoist priest, the old monk, Li Bai, and Bai Mao, who were listening in, all stared intently at Liu Yun without blinking.

White Hair felt as if the chair he was sitting on was covered in needles. He slowly stood up and said in an extremely shocked tone, "Good heavens..."

"You're interrogating the idol's biological father...!"

Click!

As soon as Bai Mao finished speaking, a crisp sound rang out in the interrogation room.

Everyone turned to look and saw the old monk, who was now covered in sweat, clutching a clump of wood chips in his trembling hand—

The armrest of the chair he was sitting on was crushed by his bare hands.

The old Taoist priest beside him was in no better shape; the muscles on his white-haired, youthful-looking face were twitching slightly.

The two looked at each other, then helped each other to their feet.

Upon seeing this, the official representative from the government office and Long Shisan stood up as well.

Upon seeing this, Li Bai lowered his head, his steps weak, and quietly left the interrogation room.

Upon seeing this, Qin Hao and Chen Tao, who were in charge of the interrogation, also stood up.

Seeing that everyone had stood up, Chaoge Xue had no choice but to stand up as well.

Of all the people in the room, only Liu Yun, who was being interrogated, remained seated.

Because his hands were strapped to the iron chair, he couldn't stand up.

He looked at the people in the interrogation room who were all standing up, completely bewildered.

I only introduced my son, why are all these people standing up?

What does that mean?

Liu Yun was completely lost.
