Because of the case’s special situation, Zhao Yu did not let the two bodyguards follow him. Wang Can was not allowed to enter the interrogation room either.

The interrogation room was as gloomy as the last time. As a serious criminal, Jiang Ke wore handcuffs and shackles, which were attached to the interrogation chair. Although he was in a tough position, Jiang Ke looked good. He had rosy cheeks and seemed a little fatter than before.

“Leader Zhao? Why are you here?” When Jiang Ke saw clearly that the police officer who was going to interrogate him today was Zhao Yu, he made a surprised sound.

Zhao Yu gave a meaningful smile and said, “Ha ha ha... You are looking good, Jiang Ke! It seems like your prison life is quite good! Are you used to it?”

Jiang Ke stared at Zhao Yu fiercely. “What are you doing up here again? Hasn’t the Devil Case been solved? Or, do you want to thank me and help me to get some commutation?”

Zhao Yu frowned and asked, “How do you know that? How did you know that the Devil Case has been solved? Aren’t you in prison?”

“Humph!” Jiang Ke snorted coldly and said, “Ask the stupid interrogators. Now, they are my only info source, Unsolved Cases Master.”

Zhao Yu’s face grew grave. Jiang Ke’s ability to make use of the available resources around him shockingly impressed him.

“Yes, you’re right, and there is another important case related to you,” Zhao Yu said. “If you can help me again like during the Devil Case, maybe I can save your life!”

Jiang Ke laughed and said, “OK, Leader Zhao! It seems that we can make another deal. But, I don’t need you to save my life. This time, I want something else.”

“What do you want?” Zhao Yu asked.

Jiang Ke grinned, baring his teeth, and said, “If you want me to help you, then I only ask for one thing. You must die in front of me!”

Zhao Yu rolled his eyes and said, “I didn’t expect that.”

Jiang Ke smiled indifferently. “If you can’t do that, then our talk is over. I’m going back to my room to do yoga. I invented a new move...”

Unexpectedly, Zhao Yu did not seem to think about it carefully and said, “OK, I promise you that.”

He took out photos and put them on the table. “You explain this to me clearly, and I will die in front of you immediately!”

“Humph!” Although Jiang Ke didn’t seem pleased, he still curiously looked at the photos. After seeing them, he could not help but frown. A puzzled expression appeared on his face. With an indifferent laugh, he asked, “What do you want, officer Zhao? Another trap for me?”

Zhao Yu observed Jiang Ke’s reaction carefully. He pointed to the photos and intentionally loudly asked, “So, who is this woman? How do you know her?”

Jiang Ke suddenly madly laughed. He was trembling all over. After a long time, he raised his thumb and said, “Detective Zhao, you are brilliant! You are a genius in solving cases. You must have a smooth career.”

Zhao Yu looked at Jiang Ke coldly. Although he did not understand his meaning, he did not make any expression.

“The last time you came here, you were in a wheelchair with thick plaster on your leg,” Jiang Ke proudly said. “Now, the New Year Festival is just over. How could you recover so quickly? Clearly, you were deliberately showing your injury to take all of the credit.”

Jiang Ke clenched his fists and said, “I was confused at that time. You ran fast when you chased after me, but later you sat in a wheelchair. I have to admit that in terms of scheming and tricks, you are much better than me!”

Zhao Yu harshly replied, “You bastard, are you trying to shift the topic or are you intentionally evading the crucial question? Does this photo mean that much to you?”

Jiang Ke glared at Zhao Yu. “Well, how about your promise? If you die in front of me, I’ll tell you right away!”

Zhao Yu clapped his chest and said, “You can be rest assured that I am the most trustworthy person. I’ll keep my word as long as you answer me!”

Jiang Ke retorted, “Do you think that I’m a fool? After I tell you, you can find any reason you want to break your promise. Come on, don’t insult me with your tricks.”

“Well, since we can’t reach an agreement, how about we make another deal?” Zhao Yu suggested.

Jiang Ke hadn’t responded yet. Zhao Yu’s mobile phone suddenly rang. It was an unknown number. He had two mobile phones. One was for private use, and the other was given by the Criminal Division for work. Now, the Criminal Division phone was ringing. Others didn’t know that number, so he knew it must be a colleague.

After answering the phone, a man’s voice loudly came out loud. “Is this Leader Zhao speaking? Hello, I’m Wu Ji, 48 special investigator. I’m sorry to disturb you.”

Oh? The 48 group? Upon hearing the name, Zhao Yu immediately stood up and, regardless of Jiang Ke’s reaction. He opened the door and walked out of the interrogation room.

Wang Can was waiting at the entrance of the interrogation room with two armed police officers. As soon as Zhao Yu came out, Wang Can came over immediately. “Mentor...”

Zhao Yu waved at him and asked over the phone, “Are you calling from Beiqian?”

“Yes, our team took over the Devil Case,” Wu Ji replied. “Last night, we were informed that you wanted us to ask Han Kuan about the robber Jiang Ke. We did that, but...”

Zhao Yu approached a corner to avoid his call bring heard by others. “Go on! What did he say? Or, did he refuse to say anything?”

Wu Ji hesitated and said, “Yes and no. Well, when we made our question clear, Han Kuan insisted that he had to talk to you personally!”

Upon hearing that, Zhao Yu’s heart had a sudden thump. Han Kuan wouldn’t want to speak to him in person if it was insignificant. He wondered what Han Kuan knew.

Zhao Yu hurriedly asked, “Is he with you? Give him the phone!”

“He’s inside. Just a moment,” Wu Ji said.

After 10 seconds, Zhao Yu heard a familiar gloomy voice over the phone. “Leader Zhao, are you there?”

The voice had a mysterious power that brought out Zhao Yu in cold sweat.

“Yes,” Zhao Yu replied. “Do you know anything about Jiang Ke?”

Han Kuan hummed and said like a dead person, “Actually, while we were in Golden City, I wanted to talk to you about Jiang Ke! Unfortunately, I had a hard time there and forgot about that.”

Zhao Yu wanted to say something, but his experience reminded him to stay silent. He said nothing and just patiently waited.

“Jiang Ke and Cui Xiaolong are both my classmates,” Han Kuan calmly said. “They are not in the same class but in the same dormitory! Jiang Ke is the only person in the dormitory who hasn’t bullied me. So, I shouldn’t say that he is a bad guy. But, somehow, I dislike him.”

“Why?” Zhao Yu asked.

Han Kuan pondered for a moment and replied, “Because he always likes to show off around us like he is the smartest person in the world. In fact, he just knows some stupid tricks.”

Zhao Yu frowned. “Oh? Stupid tricks?”

“Yes, that’s what I mainly want to talk about,” Han Kuan politely said. “You know, I write crime fiction. I am interested in cases and pay close attention to even common cases, let alone my classmate who has become a famous thief. So, I have studied all of the cases related to him.”

After saying that, Han Kuan’s tone grew cold as he said, “I found a key problem. Jiang Ke’s cases were flawless, which definitely doesn’t match his ability!”

Zhao Yu’s frown grew deeper. “What do you mean?”

“Although we haven’t stayed in the same dormitory for a long time, I know a lot about him,” Han Kuan said. “He just thinks that he’s smart, but he’s not half as smart as me! When we were in the same dormitory, I could easily figure out his real intention in every sentence he said to others.”

Han Kuan paused for a moment and solemnly said, “I am sure that those cases were not planned by Jiang Ke. He is just a puppet manipulated by others. There must be an extremely smart guy behind him! That man is his real boss.”
