SRGA Chapter 24 Song Kaifeng Taken to the Police Station
"Drink, Lin Tian, let's keep drinking."
Tang Yan shouted, already feeling seven or eight parts drunk.
"There's no more alcohol; we'll drink next time."
Lin Tian glanced at Luo Bingning helplessly.
Luo Bingning also advised, "Yan, you're not in a good state today. Next time when you're feeling better, you can drink with Lin Tian then."
"Who says there's no more alcohol? There's white and red wine in Bingning's wine cabinet. Who says I'm not in a good state? I'm feeling great right now."
"I'll definitely get Lin Tian drunk next time and help you get the truth out."
Luo Bingning felt touched; even in her intoxicated state, Tang Yan was still thinking about helping her get the truth out, fearing she might be taken advantage of by Lin Tian.
"Bingning, I'm going back to the room. Can you handle her?"
Lin Tian asked.
Luo Bingning nodded, "Don't worry, Yan isn't heavy, and she's not completely drunk yet. I'll definitely take care of her."
Lin Tian hurried back to the room.
Once there, he sat cross-legged and began to meditate.
The alcohol in his body was quickly metabolized.
"Hmm?"
Lin Tian noticed that the alcohol seemed to be speeding up his cultivation.
"Could it be that many martial artists in novels like drinking because of this reason?"
Lin Tian wondered to himself.
"Bingning, next time I'll definitely outdrink Lin Tian. We'll drink white wine then; he usually drinks beer more often."
Outside, Tang Yan complained somewhat defiantly.
Luo Bingning persuaded her and led her into the bathroom.
"This guy Lin Tian really hides his abilities well; his alcohol tolerance is surprisingly good."
Luo Bingning muttered to herself.
She had become quite curious about Lin Tian, having noticed several of his strengths in just a few days.
First, he had a strong physique, reaching the standards of a first-class athlete in running. Second, despite not driving much, he was a skilled driver.
Third, he had a good alcohol tolerance and taste.
For a man, these were definitely strengths; many business deals in Huaxia were made over drinks.
Fourth, he had a sense of propriety.
This was quite important.
After all, they weren't a real couple yet; if Lin Tian didn't have a sense of propriety, Luo Bingning would have to consider living separately from him.
...
Unknowingly, it was already midnight, and Lin Tian went to bed after washing up.
At the police station, Wei Jun was still enduring.
"Officers, please, I'm really thirsty. I didn't know one of those two ladies was Deputy Director Tang's niece."
"If I knew, I would've treated her like a queen."
Wei Jun said helplessly.
He hadn't had a sip of water since he came in. It was summer now, and the interrogation room's air conditioning wasn't turned on. Wei Jun had drunk alcohol earlier, and now his throat felt like it was on fire.
"Wei Jun, honestly confess your crimes."
"Do you think we brought you in just for this matter? If you confess honestly, you might get a reduced sentence. Otherwise, be prepared to spend a long time in prison."
One of the interrogators said sternly.
Wei Jun was shocked.
Under normal circumstances, he might receive just a verbal warning for this, but he had angered someone he shouldn't have. Spending ten days in detention was one thing, but anything more than that, he couldn't say.
This was serious.
He hadn't done many things alone; being detained for so long, others would surely suspect if he had confessed.
His wife knew there was money hidden at home, hundreds of thousands with no clear source; some of his brothers knew about his various misdeeds.
Such as running illegal gambling dens.
"Wei Jun, let's change the subject."
"How did you meet Song Kaifeng, and what did you hire him for? Tell us everything."
"Just a reminder, confessing will lessen your punishment, but resisting will lead to severe consequences!"
One of the interrogators said calmly.
Song Kaifeng's drug use was just a fabrication.
"I'm just friends with him; we hang out and have a drink. Is that a crime?"
Song Kaifeng said coldly, not feeling too anxious since his family was wealthy.
"Song Kaifeng, we'll give you half an hour. If you confess, you might be considered cooperative."
Song Kaifeng sneered inwardly.
Wei Jun was an old hand; he hadn't confessed even after twenty-four hours, so he didn't believe Wei Jun had confessed. He felt like they were trying to trick him.
"Officers, we really are just ordinary friends."
Song Kaifeng insisted.
