South to North: A Prison Guard at the Beginning

Yuan Mu looked at the woman. Her face showed that she was lying and she didn't hide anything. He was sure that Li Hao must be at home, and she must have some unspeakable secret in hiding Li Hao.

"Go! Search!" Yuan Mu waved his hand, and Mingyu and others walked around the woman and went into the house.

"Hey! Why are you still coming into the house!" The woman hurriedly went up to stop them, but how could she stop them?

Just then, a tall and strong man walked out of the room and stared at Mingyu and the others.

"What are you doing? Don't think I don't know the law. You are trespassing. Even if you are a police officer, this is not allowed!"

"Don't worry about him, go in and search! If you stop us again, torture him. I'll be responsible if anything happens!" Yuan Mu shouted.

"Yes!" Mingyu and his companions received Yuan Mu's order and began to force their way in, but the man blocked them tightly and refused to let them enter the house.

Mingyu frowned, then immediately used a counter-grasp to push the man to the ground.

"Cuff them for me!"

A police officer immediately took out handcuffs and put them on the man's wrists, while Mingyu led his men directly into the house.

The room was so small that you could see the end at a glance. A boy of about fourteen or fifteen was huddled in the corner of the kang.

"Your name is Li Hao?" Mingyu walked up to Li Hao and said.

Li Hao's eyes were full of fear at this time, and he kept shaking his head. At this time, Yuan Mu walked in.

"Let me ask you, was it you, Sun Jun, and Yang Wu who called Han Guang out on October 16th?" Yuan Mu looked at Li Hao and asked.

Li Hao kept shaking his head and didn't say anything. Li Hao's mother rushed in wailing.

"What are you doing? You scared the child! I'm going to sue you!"

"You can sue us, but wait until we finish our investigation!" Yuan Mu said coldly.

"I'll ask you again! Was Han Guang called away by you?" Yuan Mu's voice suddenly raised two tones.

But at this time, Li Hao started crying very loudly. Li Hao's mother hugged Li Hao and tried to comfort him, while scolding Yuan Mu and others as bandits.

"Where are the witnesses?" Yuan Mu turned his head to look at Mingyu.

"Just outside the courtyard."

"Please ask him to come in for a moment."

"Okay." Mingyu nodded and went out.

Soon, Mingyu entered the house with a man in his fifties.

"Hello comrade, let me ask you, did you see him with Han Guang that day?" Yuan Mu asked, pointing at Li Hao in the corner.

"Yes, I saw it clearly. The boy from the Li family, the boy from the Yang family, and the boy from the Sun family, the three of them took the boy from the Han family with them. I even asked them where they were going, but they didn't tell me." The man nodded.

"You're talking nonsense, Old Qin! Your eyes are blurry. My son has never been out. He has been doing his homework at home!" The woman started cursing.

"Come on, don't you know what your kid is like? He has been stealing from this house and that house since he was young. I have seen your child and the kids from the Yang and Sun families asking for money from Han several times!" Old Qin fought back.

"Comrade, you said they asked Han Guang for money?" Yuan Mu keenly grasped the useful clues in the words.

"Yes, it happened several times. That Han kid was too honest. Ding Ba was bullied by these guys. I helped him several times, but it was useless." Old Qin nodded.

Yuan Mu suddenly realized that this was school bullying! He had handled such cases in his previous life, but he didn't expect that this would happen not long after the reform.

"Come! Take Li Hao away for me!" Yuan Mu waved his hand.

"Yes!" Two police officers stepped forward and pulled Li Hao out of the woman's arms.

"Ah!! What are you doing! You are stealing the child! Oh my God, this is so unfair!" The woman sat on the ground and began to summon the dead.

"Now your son is suspected of robbery. We will take him back to the team for investigation. If your son is innocent, I will personally come to your house to apologize and give you compensation! Take him away!" After saying that, Yuan Mu took his men away.

As for Li Hao's innocence? Don't be ridiculous, how is that possible? Even if Han Guang's death had nothing to do with Li Hao and the other two, they couldn't get away with the robbery charge.

But Yuan Mu believes that Han Guang’s death is very likely related to these three children, but this requires further investigation.

Next, Yuan Mu took his men to the homes of Sun Jun and Yang Wu and took the two away using the same method.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Criminal police team.

"Xiao Yuan, why did you bring back three children?" Captain Jiang asked with a frown.

"These three people are closely involved in Han Guang's death, and according to information provided by villagers, these three people have been bullying Han Guang for a long time and asking Han Guang for money." Yuan Mu briefly explained the whole story.

Captain Jiang frowned.

"Are you sure enough? If this is a misunderstanding, then you and I will face the risk of being held accountable."

"Captain Jiang, rest assured. I am 100 percent sure. Please come to my office and I will tell you in detail the clues I know."

More than ten minutes later.

"Okay, I approve this matter. We will interrogate these three students immediately." Captain Jiang slammed the table and said.

"Yes! I will pry open their mouths within twenty minutes!" Yuan Mu promised.

"Pay attention to the methods and approaches. Try not to use those means if possible. We can't be sure yet whether it is them." Captain Jiang reminded.

"Don't worry, there is no need to use that kind of method to deal with a few children." Yuan Mu smiled confidently.

"Okay, I trust you to do the job. Go ahead and find out the truth of the matter as soon as possible."

In the interrogation room.

Yuan Mu and Ming Yu sat side by side at the interrogation table, while Li Hao sat on the interrogation chair, looking at them in horror.

"Tell me! Where did you take Han Guang? Do you have anything to do with his death?" Mingyu slammed the table and shouted.

Li Hao was startled and tears started coming down.

"No, I didn't."

Yuan Mu waved his hand and walked in front of Li Hao.

"Li Hao, did you see that scarlet blood? I caught a human trafficker in this interrogation room. I hung him up and beat him. His screams could be heard from miles away."

"Now I'll give you a chance. As long as you tell the truth, you won't have to suffer these physical pains." Yuan Mu smiled, and his smile was very cruel.

Li Hao was frightened by Yuan Mu and his legs kept shaking.

"I said, I said."

"Speak!" Yuan Mu's face suddenly turned serious, and then he walked back and sat down. Mingyu also looked at Li Hao, ready to take notes at any time.

"We called Han Guang out that day to ask him for money, but he refused to give us any, so we took him to the field and beat him up."

"I found two cents in his pocket, but Han Guang held it tightly and wouldn't let me take it. Then Sun Jun next to him hit him with a shovel." Li Hao told the story in a trembling voice.
