Rebirth of the Rising Sun

"What are you confessing? It's very simple. Just listen to us. Just say what we tell you to do. As long as you can do as we ask, we will guarantee that nothing will happen to you. How about that?" The policeman laughed when he heard Fu Di asking him what to do next. He thought Fu Di was scared.

Hearing that the police were forcing him to make a false confession, Fu Di turned his head, looked away, and said nothing more. He felt that it would be unnecessary to say anything to these policemen whose identities were totally unmatched.

"Hey, kid, don't refuse a toast and then drink a forfeit. Do you see these books in my hand? Let me tell you, put them on your chest, then no matter how we hit you, no one else can see the scars. Otherwise, it will only cause internal injuries that you will need to recover from for the rest of your life." Seeing that Fu Di was unwilling to cooperate, the policeman immediately took out a trump card and prepared to force him to submit.

Put a thick book on the chest, and then punch it. This will not leave any marks on the chest. This is a method that many police officers use when interrogating prisoners. But it is usually used on people who refuse to speak. But today, this trick was used on Fu Di, which is enough to prove the despicable nature of these police officers. They want to torture him into confessing.

Fu Di is a cultured person, he has his own way of dealing with things, and his own pursuit and ideals in life. Often, the more cultured people are, the more stubborn they are, and they cannot be subdued by a few words. Therefore, when watching the moves that the police were about to demonstrate, Fu Di snorted, and then acted like he was not afraid.

The police who interrogated Fu Di have seen many people like him. Many of them are very arrogant before being tortured, but as long as you really do something to him, his attitude will immediately become weak. At that time, he will say whatever you want to know, even whatever you want him to say.

Thinking that Chief Bei had personally ordered that Fu Di must speak, the police officer who was interrogating him began to torture him without any mercy. However, considering Fu Di's physique, the police officer still held back some strength, otherwise he would have killed Fu Di here.

Compared with Fu Di, Chen Guangming's treatment would be better. The person who interrogated him was a section chief, and his rank was similar to that of Chen Guangming now.

The section chief had met Chen Guangming before, and at that time he was still envious, but who could have thought that Chen Guangming would now fall into his hands?

"Director Chen, I think you should stop being stubborn. You know that even Mayor Feng has been locked up in the police station. Who will save you? So the only way you have now is to save yourself. As long as you think it through and save yourself, I promise not to lift a finger on you. What do you think?" The section chief looked at Chen Guangming and did not take action immediately. Instead, he tried to persuade the other party with his eloquence.

Chen Guangming responded to the section chief's words with a vicious look, and then he began to reason with him. "Oh, it's good that you still know that I am Director Chen. I can also tell you the truth. Whether you want to torture me or not, for me, the result will be the same, but it will be completely different for you. So you must think it through. If something goes wrong, don't blame me for not reminding you."

"Director Chen, what do you mean?" The section chief was a little confused when he heard that Chen Guangming had given him a multiple-choice question.

"What do you mean? You still don't understand. I mean, whether you torture me or not, the result will be the same, that is, I won't tell anyone. But it's completely different for you. It's better if you don't torture me. At least when I get out, you won't have any responsibilities. You will just do your job. On the contrary, if you torture me, you will be fine when I get out. At that time, I'm afraid that you will not only be stripped of your police uniform, but I will just say hello and someone will make you unable to stay in Lotus City. Do you believe it?"

Chen Guangming had been following Feng Sizhe for many years. He had seen many of the tricks his boss used and had also learned a lot about eloquence, so he just said these words casually.

It was these words that really hit the section chief hard. He felt that Chen Guangming's words made sense. As a policeman, he could clearly see that someone in Lianhua City wanted to deal with Mayor Feng and wanted to use him as a target. No matter how this matter would be handled, someone would definitely be in trouble. Either Mayor Feng would be in trouble, or the person who harmed him would be in trouble. In any case, it would not be without a result. If there were a result, there would be two options. One was that Mayor Feng would be punished or even suspended. If that happened, it would be meaningless for him to deal with Chen Guangming today. But what if it was not this result? If Mayor Feng was fine in the end and continued to be the mayor, then Chen Guangming would be fine. If that happened, he would be the one in trouble.

Although this idea is a bit confusing, the section chief has to admit that it is true. People in the officialdom are generally not too ruthless in doing things. Unless they are mortal enemies, they will leave a glimmer of hope for the other party. As the saying goes, leave a glimmer of hope for others so that they can meet again in the future.

Thinking that if he could let Chen Guangming go today, it might be a good thing for him. At least he wouldn't have to worry about what would happen to him after Chen Guangming was fine. The section chief, who had left enough escape routes for himself, walked up to Chen Guangming and whispered, "Okay, Director Chen, I'll do as you say. I won't hit you, but you have to cooperate with me. At least you have to yell a few times when I pretend to hit you. That way, I can report to the higher-ups, right?"

"Well, that's fine." Seeing that the section chief was quite realistic, or not too bad, Chen Guangming nodded and agreed with him.

In this way, the two section-level cadres played a double act, one pretending to beat him, the other pretending to yell, making it more realistic than the one next door where Fu Di was. Because at Fu Di's place, the police officer in charge of the torture only beat him a few times and he fainted, so there was no movement over there, and it was far less lively than Chen Guangming's place.

Things went on like this until the evening, when they finally calmed down. Everyone took a break and prepared to do everything tomorrow.

Feng Sizhe was also forced to stay in a room specially prepared for him in the Public Security Bureau. There was only a TV and a bed in this room, and there was not even a phone. Feng Sizhe's mobile phone was also taken away by Chen Zhenghai, secretary of the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection. There was nothing he could do about it. He was currently under investigation and indeed could not contact the outside world.

Feng Sizhe, who was resting in the room, fell asleep on the bed after finishing his meal. This was enough to show that he had a very good mentality. He knew that he was wronged this time, and he believed that someone would speak up for him, so he was not worried about anything. On the contrary, he took this opportunity to take a good rest. Thinking about it, he had been busy with work recently, and he hadn't gone to bed so early for a long time. Now, he could sleep well here.

After Feng Sizhe fell into a light sleep, he suddenly heard the sound of the door in a daze. Then he squinted his eyes and saw a tall man in police uniform approaching him carefully. He could tell from the other person's footsteps that he was a martial artist, and his kung fu must be very good. He immediately made preparations, ready to make the most effective counterattack at the most appropriate time.

The man was getting closer and closer to Feng Sizhe, until the distance between them was less than three meters. Feng Sizhe had clenched his fists inside the quilt and prepared his legs to jump up. He was just waiting for the other party to reveal his true face so that he could launch an effective attack.

However, after waiting for about half a minute, the man just stood there and didn't move forward. This made Feng Sizhe very puzzled. This man should be a killer sent by someone else, otherwise why would he tiptoe in? Why didn't he take action now? What was he waiting for? Was he waiting for the right time? Could it be that killers have become superstitious now?

No matter what, if he keeps waiting like this, Feng Sizhe is afraid that his hands and feet under the quilt will become numb, so he has to take action first. As the saying goes, he who strikes first is the strongest, and he who strikes later will suffer.

Thinking of this, Feng Sizhe suddenly moved, jumped up from the bed, and then punched the man in police uniform with a big straight punch.

"No, boss." When the man saw Feng Sizhe move and his target was himself, he immediately stepped back quickly and accidentally fell to the ground. Not to mention that this sitting on the ground was just the right time to avoid Feng Sizhe's fierce straight punch.

When he heard the man shouting, Feng Sizhe quickly withdrew his fist. After his fist missed, he paused for the next punch. Then Feng Sizhe said, "Chen Hu?"

"Yes, boss, it's me." The policeman quickly stood up from the ground and stood in front of Feng Sizhe.

Upon hearing that it was really Chen Hu, Feng Sizhe couldn't help but say curiously, "Chen Hu, why are you wearing a police uniform? And you walk so lightly. You know, you really scared me. If you hadn't fallen to the ground, I think this punch would have taken half your life."

"Oh, boss, I have no choice. I can't get in without wearing a police uniform. That's why I spent a lot of money and bribed the guards to get in. Also, I knew you were resting, so I didn't dare to make any noise when I walked. I wanted to wait for you to wake up, but I didn't expect you to be so alert and you would have noticed me a long time ago." Chen Hu explained while flattering Feng Sizhe.
