Chapter 24: This Is Not An Excuses For Your Crime

"Decent my ass."

"What the fuck did you stuff in your pocket? Don't you have any sense at all?"

"Think carefully about how you're going to explain this."

"Or do you still feel innocent?"

Hearing the young man's words, Su Xuan rolled his eyes and immediately retorted.

As his hand delved into the young man's pocket, he pulled out a bunch of syringes, lollipops, toys, and the like...

Clatter!

By the time the young man realized what was happening and tried to stop it, it was already too late.

Looking at the various props scattered on the ground, the young man's face turned pale.

Although these things appeared to be normal candy lollipops at first glance.

In reality, if they were taken for testing, it would be discovered that nearly every single one of them was a knockout drug.

Since it could be easily tested, the police who caught the thief would be able to find something wrong with these things.

He had been thinking about whether he could take the opportunity to escape, but when these crime tools were exposed, the young man was already trembling.

He raised his head, his lips trembling.

"Police. Officer, what, what are you doing?"

"I just bought some lollipops and toys for my child. Is that illegal?"

The young man was trembling with courage, trying to find another chance to escape.

However, the sweat on his face, his trembling lips, and his guilty tone...

No one would believe that he was really just an ordinary person.

But he had no choice.

If he were to admit that he was a human trafficker who abducted and sold children, he would probably be dead.

It was impossible for him to admit it. As long as he had the slightest chance, he would defend himself.

The corners of Su Xuan's mouth twitched.

He looked at him speechlessly and raised her eyebrows."Do you think I'll believe you?"

"Since you said that this is an ordinary lollipop, how about this? If you eat it in front of me, I'll treat you as real."

After Su Xuan finished speaking, the young man shut up.

Nonsense. What the hell was in these items, he knew better than anyone else.

If he were to just consume them, he'd probably pass out and wake up in the police station.

"Come on, I advise you to tell the truth."

"Tell me, did you commit the crime as a group or as an individual?"

"Where is the person from the higher-ups?"

Su Xuan narrowed his eyes and said coldly,"If you're honest and have a good attitude, I can help you fight for leniency."

"Otherwise…"

When Su Xuan said that it was a gang or an individual who committed the crime, the young man who was originally uneasy was already in complete despair.

He had originally thought that even if the police knew that something was wrong with him, they would not know that he was a human trafficker.

However, he did not expect the other party to expose him with a single sentence.

He was even asked whether he had a higher-up he answered to...

When he heard the sound of multiple police cars patrolling the area yesterday, he sensed that something was off. He had originally considered giving up on today.

But after those police officers went to the police station and didn't come out, he mustered a bit more courage and came out again today.

He didn't expect to be met with a blow of a hammer as soon as he turned around...

As the young man thought about this, his gaze, filled with disbelief, locked onto Su Xuan before him. He couldn't figure out how he had managed to realize he was a child trafficker.

Or...

Perhaps his uneasy premonition from yesterday had been correct. Had the police known about them long ago, and were they here today to catch them?

Trembling lips, the young man wanted to defend himself.

However, by this point, Su Xuan had already gathered all the tools of the trade scattered on the ground, placing them into a bag.

Meeting the young man's gaze, Su Xuan gestured toward the bag with a quirk of his brow. "Do you really plan to eat them?"

"Otherwise, you can pick one. As long as you consume it without any issues, I'll let you go immediately."

Oh, for fuck's sake...

Eating, eating, eating. What the hell?

If these things were edible, he wouldn't need to be a child trafficker anymore.

He might as well switch careers and sell lollipops!

Realizing that the police before him had essentially gathered enough evidence of his crimes, any further attempt at lying would likely lead to more severe consequences...

Without a trace of hesitation, the young man immediately chose to give up.

"Offi-officer... I confess, I confess to everything!"

"I really did this for the first time. Please spare me!"

"I was wrong, truly wrong. I beg you to spare me. I promise I won't dare to do it again..."

The young man's face was contorted with anguish as he spoke.

At this moment, he genuinely regretted his actions.

Ever since he learned that he had a relative involved in this business, he had contemplated leaving. After all, each time he stepped onto this path, it meant one or even two families would face the danger of losing their children...

Initially, he couldn't sleep at night.

One worry was whether the police would catch him.

The other was the guilt he felt, coupled with the fear that parents whose children he had taken might come looking for him...

Living in such fearful uncertainty, he found it hard to continue...

With the tightening of law enforcement and his growing unease, the road of a human trafficker had become increasingly treacherous.

They had lingered here for so long and only managed to capture two children. Today, they had finally seized another, only to be apprehended by the police, and he had even been struck by a hammer...

The young man was already full of regret.

If only he had known. He shouldn't have listened to his cousin in the first place and embarked on this criminal path!

Thinking of this, the young man recounted how he had ended up on the road of crime. He admitted to his wrongdoings without reservation...

Zhao Qiang still held a child in his arms.

Seeing this scene, he couldn't help but wish to kick him. "You're actually a child trafficker. You'd even snatch a child this young. You're truly inhuman!"

If it weren't for the fact that he was wearing a police uniform, Zhao Qiang would have already acted.

"I... I didn't want to."

Tears streamed down the young man's face. "But the work pressure nowadays is just too much, especially for people like us who come from rural areas. It's impossible to find a good job."

"Before, we could work on construction sites as laborers. But now, even that demands more qualifications, and there are even machines involved..."

"I made a rash decision because of the immense stress."

After the young man finished speaking, both of them fell silent.

Su Xuan sneered.

"There are plenty of people who can't find jobs, but not many turn to a life of crime."

"That's hardly an excuse for choosing a criminal path."

"However, considering you're just starting out, I might be able to offer you a chance to earn merit. Who knows, you might get out sooner and start anew..."

As Su Xuan spoke, tears filled the young man's eyes as he looked up at him, his gaze fixed.

He heard Su Xuan say, "It depends on whether you want this opportunity or not."

"I want it, I definitely want it!"

Getting out sooner was certainly better than anything else. The young man's once dull eyes suddenly sparkled.

"Officer, I'm willing to do anything you want!"

"As long as it's within my capabilities, I'll do it!"
