Chapter 2: Should I Claim the Overwhelming Credit?

Page 1/3
The head of the security team is the eldest cousin?
Three cases of child trafficking, no matter if your cousin is the head of the security team, even if he were the emperor himself, you’d still have to go to jail!
“Mom!”
“Mom! Don’t arrest my mom!”
At this critical moment, the little girl stood in front of her mother, blocking Qin Chuan.
Although this man was handsome—she had liked him from a photo—hitting her mother was out of the question.
Qin Chuan did not confront the girl harshly, since she was a victim herself.
Zhang Jinlian had kidnapped her first child twenty years ago, and it was this girl.
Qin Chuan took out his phone and called the chief, then waited for backup in the café.
Ten minutes later, Wang Xuebing came running into the Red Romance café, out of breath.
“Chief Wang, this is the person I reported to you on the phone. Three years ago, a boy went missing in Wangjiagou Village—she was the one who took him.”
“You’re slandering! Help! The police are beating people!”
Wang Xuebing glanced at the woman on the floor, frowned, and looked at Qin Chuan. “Are you sure?”
“Sure. The child is the one from our village who went missing. Someone saw the kidnapper’s hand with a red birthmark. Chief, take a look.”
Of course, Qin Chuan was bluffing.
But he couldn’t say the system had told him.
Wang Xuebing looked at Qin Chuan deeply.
This guy…
Though he had been assigned to Changning Town Police Station for offending someone, Wang Xuebing had observed that Qin Chuan was diligent and motivated, not giving up just because he was at a rural police station.
If Qin Chuan was confident, then it was probably true.
“Bring her back to the station!”
…
“Chief, I’ve never interrogated a suspect before. Since I caught her, can I conduct the interrogation?”
Before Wang Xuebing arranged the preliminary hearing, Qin Chuan volunteered.
Because Zhang Jinlian’s arrest relied entirely on Qin Chuan’s “Evil Eye.” But law enforcement requires evidence; if she kept denying, they might end up helpless.
But if Qin Chuan interrogated her, it would be different.
Because he had an advantage.
Wang Xuebing had no objection. Changning Town was remote, with only six official officers, two of whom were off today due to night shifts.
Of the remaining four, one was at a meeting, so only three could interrogate, including himself.
“Fine. Turn on the recorder and keep the evidence.”
“Don’t worry, I’ll follow procedure strictly!”
The interrogation room was just an office with the suspect handcuffed to the heating pipe, unable to stand or sit properly, only half-squatting.
Procedures had to be followed, but there was room for handling them differently.
Qin Chuan lit a cigarette and turned off the camera.
“What… what are you doing?”

Zhang Jinlian turned pale as Qin Chuan switched off the camera.
“You’re a police officer… you can’t…”
He sneered.
“Auntie, what are you thinking?”
“Three cases of trafficking—where do you want to start confessing?”
“What… what trafficking? You’re slandering me! I’ve never broken the law…”
“Never broken the law? What about Duan Third from Construction Village? You haven’t forgotten him, right?”
“Zhang Mazi from the neighboring county—don’t you remember him either?”
“And your daughter—the baby girl who went missing twenty years ago from Chenjiagou. Her biological parents are still alive. Want to do a DNA test?”
“You… you!”
Zhang Jinlian looked at Qin Chuan as if seeing a ghost.
How did this policeman know all these things?
Of course, Qin Chuan wouldn’t tell her the “Evil Eye” had laid out her crimes in perfect detail.
What he was doing now was just legalizing that evidence.
“Zhang Jinlian, I do have evidence, but since you know my second aunt, I’ll give you some face. Confess yourself, and I’ll treat it as cooperation.”
After saying this, Qin Chuan turned the camera back on.
Then he sat down again and asked, “Name?”
Thirty minutes later.
Qin Chuan handed a thick notebook to Wang Xuebing.
“Finished?”
“Finished. She trafficked three children in total. The earliest was the baby girl who went missing from Chenjiagou twenty years ago—that’s her current daughter…”
*Ding!* “Congratulations! Host has captured a child trafficking suspect, earning 49 points of virtue!”
The system rewards virtue equal to the suspect’s evil value.
Wang Xuebing had been a policeman for over twenty years and had handled trafficking cases before.
He knew well how difficult such cases were to solve.
Most trafficking cases span years, lack fixed evidence, and unless suspects confess or surveillance footage exists, it’s hard to convict if they resist.
He wasn’t optimistic about Qin Chuan’s interrogation.
Yet in just thirty minutes, Qin Chuan got the suspect to confess the entire criminal process.
From the time of kidnapping to where the children were sold and the money received, everything was clear!
“Xiao Qin… did you use any tricks?”
Qin Chuan grinned. “Chief Wang, I’m a policeman. How could I break the law? Don’t worry, if she resisted, I’d have handled her with the big stick.”
“Really? She just gave in because of your persuasion?”
With the confession, the case wasn’t over yet.
The children had to be found and DNA tested. Only after everything was settled could the case be sent to the prosecutor’s office.
In 2010, Changning Town Police Station had only one police car—an old Santana that had been phased out elsewhere. Wang Xuebing waved his hand and approved Qin Chuan’s use of it.
“Xiao Qin, you’re something else—catching a trafficker on a blind date?”

Zhang Jun was the deputy chief of the station, in his thirties and a core member of Changning Town Police Station.
Changning Town was remote with a small population, and the station had only six officers.
Chief Wang Xuebing, Deputy Chief Zhang Jun, and no instructors.
Among the other four officers, one was a female household registration officer named Zhang Xiaojuan, responsible for internal affairs.
The other three, including Qin Chuan, had no specific assignments; they handled security, cases, and cybersecurity.
“All thanks to the chief’s good leadership.”
Though Qin Chuan had just started working at the station in this life, in his previous life he had worked with these people for years and knew their interests well.
Zhang Jun was a former soldier who liked fishing.
Chief Wang liked smoking.
Among the others, Zhang Xiaojuan was under thirty, unmarried, and enjoyed gardening.
Hu Jianguo was nearing retirement and liked tea.
Sun Bingkun, 28, unmarried, liked Zhang Xiaojuan.
“You’re slick-tongued, kid. Drive safely!”
Qin Chuan’s arrest of a trafficker excited everyone.
After all, it was a rural police station—big cases rarely came by.
And even if they did, they probably couldn’t solve them.
Wang Xuebing assigned the veteran Hu Jianguo to accompany Qin Chuan on the mission.
Though old Hu was close to retirement, he was diligent.
He had been on duty yesterday and was supposed to rest today, but one call from Wang Xuebing brought him back.
Leaving the station, Qin Chuan drove the familiar yet unfamiliar Santana, taking in the surroundings that felt both distant and nostalgic, making him momentarily dazed.
Had he really been reborn?
“Kid, don’t zone out while driving. This old bone wants to live a couple more years.”
Qin Chuan snapped back to reality and smiled. “Don’t worry, Old Hu. You’ll live to a hundred.”
In his previous life, while he was in prison, Old Hu had visited him—still healthy in his seventies.
He was still alive when Qin Chuan died.
Creak!
Suddenly, Qin Chuan slammed on the brakes.
“Just said, be careful!”
At this moment, Qin Chuan had casually activated the Evil Eye again. A string of blood-red information appeared over a chubby little boy’s forehead ahead of the car.
Zhao Sihu, evil value 62, seven days ago in Haizhou City’s Chengguan County, robbed and killed a pedestrian.
Damn!
This person was the suspect in the notorious June 18th robbery and murder case reported by the neighboring city?!
