South to North: A Prison Guard at the Beginning

Chapter 36: Psychological Defenses Nearly Collapse

After a long time of trouble, Yuan Mu finally brought Shen Quan back to the criminal police team.

There was no way around it. Transportation was so inconvenient in this era. If he wanted to return to the police force, he had to wait for the return bus, which would take dozens of hours round trip.

When they returned to the police station, it was already past ten o'clock in the morning of the next day. Yuan Mu escorted Shen Quan into the criminal police team.

"Brother Mu, what's wrong with this kid?" Someone from the same team as Yuan Mu passed by and pointed at Shen Quan who was beside Yuan Mu.

"He's a human trafficker. I caught him in the car. But he's too stubborn. I'll bring him back for questioning."

"Human trafficker? Brother Mu, you are awesome. You caught the human trafficker!"

"Okay Mingyu, I'll report to Captain Jiang first, and then can you help me review it later?" Yuan Mu waved his hand and asked.

"Sure, why not? I just don't want to go out during this time." Mingyu nodded.

"Okay, then come to the interrogation room to find me later." Yuan Mu nodded and walked towards Captain Jiang's office.

"report!"

"Come in!"

Captain Jiang looked up and saw Yuan Mu smiling, then he was stunned for a moment when he saw Shen Quan who was handcuffed beside Yuan Mu.

"This is?"

"Captain Jiang, this is the human trafficker we caught in the car. Let me report to you. I will conduct a surprise interrogation on him later. He has accomplices, but he refuses to confess." Yuan Mu said.

"Oh my! Xiao Yuan, you caught the human trafficker in just two days?" Captain Jiang's eyes lit up.

"I don't know if it's that group of human traffickers yet. I'll examine them carefully later."

"Okay, let's go quickly and try to interrogate them as soon as possible to see if there are any other children abducted by them!" Captain Jiang said hurriedly.

"Yes!"

After leaving the office, Yuan Mu took Shen Quan all the way to the interrogation room and pressed him directly on the interrogation chair.

The structure of the interrogation room is very simple, a small room of more than ten square meters, with a table, two chairs, an interrogation chair, and almost nothing else.

At this time, Mingyu walked in with a notebook and a pen, sat directly at the interrogation table, and opened the notebook.

"Shen Quan! I won't ask you about your accomplices first. Do you recognize this child?" Yuan Mu took out a photo and placed it in front of Shen Quan and asked.

Shen Quan's pupils contracted when he looked at the photo. Yuan Mu had been staring at him, and this small detail was directly captured by Yuan Mu.

"No...never seen it." Shen Quan lowered his head as he said that.

An old hand like Shen Quan knows the law very well. He knows exactly how to sentence those who abduct one child and how to sentence those who abduct multiple children.

Yuan Mu smiled, then walked back to the interrogation table, sat down, and lit a cigarette.

"Tell me the truth!" Mingyu slammed the table and shouted.

"Comrade police investigator! I have confessed everything I should. This is my first time, and I just kidnapped this one child, but I haven't succeeded yet." Shen Quan wailed.

"Kid! You're still lying to me even after all this? Please practice lying in front of the mirror next time. It's all written on your face. You're committing a crime even though you're still like this?" Yuan Mu sneered.

Shen Quan was stunned, then lowered his head.

"Shen Quan, I am determined to be a good person. I will give you one last chance. Tell me how many children you have trafficked and who your accomplices are. Otherwise, our doctors are ready!" Yuan Mu's tone was still flat, but Shen Quan understood the meaning of his words.

What Yuan Mu meant was that you'd better be sensible and give it all, otherwise he will resort to force.

"Comrade Inspector, everything I said is true. I didn't lie." Although Shen Quan was very scared, he still felt lucky in his heart. This is a common problem among people. They all have a lucky mentality.

"Brother Mu, why are you wasting time with him? Watch me!" Mingyu couldn't stand it anymore, slammed the pen in his hand on the table, picked up the notebook, stood up and walked towards Shen Quan.

"Hey! Don't come over here! The police are beating people! The police are beating people!"

"Ah!!" After a while of wailing, it turned into a scream.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!" Muffled sounds continued to be heard from the interrogation room, mixed with Shen Quan's screams.

Ten minutes later, Mingyu was sitting at the interrogation table smoking a cigarette, while Shen Quan was slumped in the corner of the interrogation room with a bruised face and nose.

Originally, Mingyu was fighting with his notebook as a cushion in the early stages, but this guy was really stubborn and made Mingyu mad, so he just threw the notebook away and started fighting without thinking twice, so Shen Quan became what he is now.

"Shen Quan, are you going to tell me or not? Don't force me to do anything powerful to you!" Yuan Mu chuckled.

Shen Quan didn't say anything. It was obvious that he wanted to endure it. After all, Yuan Mu and others couldn't always beat him, right? Just bear with it, it will pass.

"Oh my god! I find that you are really funny!" Seeing this, Mingyu rolled up his arms and was ready to continue.

"Hey, Mingyu, Mingyu, you take a break, I'll do it!" After stopping Mingyu, Yuan Mu stood up and came to Shen Quan.

"Why bother? I can see that you are not the one who has the final say in your gang. You are at best a middle-level person, right?"

"Why are you holding on? You haven't slept for a whole day and night, right? Aren't you sleepy? Aren't you hungry? As long as you tell me, I'll give you food and let you sleep well, how about that?" Yuan Mu coaxed him.

Shen Quan glanced at Yuan Mu, still without saying anything, and even closed his eyes.

"Mingyu, keep an eye on him and don't let him sleep. I'll go get some food!" Yuan Mu said.

"Okay, don't worry." Mingyu laughed.

Soon, Yuan Mu came back with two lunch boxes. At this time, Shen Quan was sitting on the interrogation chair, drowsy, but every time he lowered his head, Mingyu would pull him to prevent him from sleeping.

"Mingyu, have some food. I'll treat you to drinks tonight!" Yuan Mu greeted with a smile.

"Hey! Don't be polite, it's just a small matter." Mingyu waved his hand nonchalantly, then walked to the interrogation table, sat down, opened his lunch box and started eating.

Yuan Mu walked up to Shen Quan with a lunch box.

"Shen Quan, do you want to eat?" Yuan Mu opened the lunch box and swirled it in front of his nose.

Shen Quan sniffed hard and swallowed.

"Give it to me, give me something to eat." Shen Quan said in a hoarse voice.

"Sure, I can give it to you. I'll give it to you right after you finish talking!"

Shen Quan lowered his head, as if he was making his last struggle. In fact, it was quite amazing that he could hold on until now.

He had been subjected to torture, sleep deprivation, and food refusal, which was more than an ordinary criminal could endure. He had almost reached his limit.

Yuan Mu didn't continue to attack him because he saw that he was about to reach the critical point. Because everyone has a self-protection mechanism, if he continued to fight under that situation, it would most likely make him firm in his heart and fight to the end.

As for interrogation, you need to use both a big stick and a sweet treat. You are beaten and tempted at the same time. This is the effective method.
