NOVEL NEXT Chapter 15 Playing with Fire!
"Bang!" Situ Yan slammed her palm on the table, her face darkened as she stood up, and said coldly, "Behave yourself. This isn't a place for you to act out. Confess for leniency, resist and face severity. You should know this common knowledge."
"I have nothing to confess. You can ask Jian Yu when he wakes up for the specifics," Jiang Feng replied calmly.
"Outrageous!" Situ Yan shouted angrily, her breathing erratic, causing her deputy, Niu Tao, to awkwardly turn his face away.
"Since you mentioned Jian Yu, I must clarify one point: you're quite daring! You dared to hit Jian Hongsheng's son, that's commendable in eradicating a public menace. But that's not a reason for violent assault. Even if it goes to court, you're in the wrong, considering you crippled a perfectly healthy person!" Situ Yan's face was icy cold.
Jian Yu is known in Binhai City as a famous playboy with a bad reputation, a widely known fact.
This guy, relying on his family's wealth and power, has been with countless young models and school belles, but the key issue is his preference for messing with decent families, causing numerous incidents. There's even a case where a decent woman got pregnant by him, which led to utter chaos and family ruin, and he ultimately abandoned her!
This drove the woman to despair, leading to her suicide by jumping off a building, resulting in a double tragedy!
Afterwards, it was Jian Hongsheng who paid to settle the matter, leaving Jian Yu unscathed, continuing his carefree lifestyle.
Jian Yu's file in the action department is as thick as a notebook, but there's never sufficient evidence, or someone's protecting him, so no one dares to touch him. Even when Situ Yan wanted to take action herself, she was obstructed from above.
In this sense, Jiang Feng beating Jian Yu so badly today could be seen as removing a social menace.
However, assault is still assault, and that cannot be overlooked, especially since Jiang Feng's kick rendered Jian Yu impotent, making it even more severe. One cannot excuse violent behavior just because he did something satisfying.
Moreover, Jiang Feng's attitude was terrible from start to finish, never cooperating, which made temperamental Situ Yan even more intolerant.
"Jiang Feng, even if you say nothing, I have all your information. Thirteen years ago, you came to Binhai alone, homeless, and were taken in by the Family Head, Nangong Honghu, who brought you into the Nangong Family."
"Six years ago, Nangong Honghu unexpectedly decided to betroth his beloved granddaughter, Nangong Qingcheng, to you. Thus, you went from a stray taken in by the Nangong Family to becoming their son-in-law, and since then you've been living in this capacity."
"During this time, you were no different from an ordinary person, even living somewhat self-deprecatingly, quite disheartened, with no ambition, indulging in smoking and drinking, muddling through your days."
"According to the latest information, you mysteriously disappeared about a month ago. Your fiancée, Nangong Qingcheng, requested a missing person announcement, searching for you across the province and even the whole country. And suddenly tonight, you showed up unexpectedly and, acting out of character, actively sought out Jian Yu and his sidekick Qiangzi to beat them, which is a sharp contrast to your previous records, practically like a different person!"
Situ Yan walked past the interrogation table, swinging her shapely legs and approached Jiang Feng, holding a stack of his records high as she looked down on him and said, "Now, I not only want to understand your motive for assault but also want to know what happened during your month of disappearance that led to your personality change?"
"You've done quite well with the data collection, but it's not updated timely enough—at least not comprehensively reflecting tonight's events," Jiang Feng smiled, "Besides, I have a little suggestion for you."
"What?" Situ Yan asked with a stern face.
"In the future, when interrogating, you might want to put on some clothes; otherwise, the comrades can't focus on handling the case."
"You!" Situ Yan couldn't believe he actually said that at this critical moment. Reflexively, she looked back and saw that her deputy, Niu Tao, was awkwardly avoiding eye contact, embarrassed to even glimpse at her...
Situ Yan's face fell as she looked down at herself, realizing she's somewhat exposed. But that wasn't the issue—the issue was this fellow dared to flippantly remark about it to her face!
"Jiang Feng! Don't think you can act flippantly. Here, I ask, you answer; this is the best way for you to explain yourself. Otherwise, I'll consider it a challenge to my authority, and I won't mind showing you the consequences!"
Situ Yan grabbed Jiang Feng by the collar, bent down, stared closely at his face, and said word by word.
"Officer, I protest!" Jiang Feng suddenly said.
"What? Scared now?" Situ Yan sneered, thinking this scoundrel finally realized the seriousness. Although torture isn't advocated these days, Jiang Feng repeatedly provoking her was infuriating. Did he really think that an unassuming tiger wouldn't roar, treating her like Hello Kitty?
"Someone's walking around without underwear in front of me; it's indecent!" Jiang Feng declared righteously.
???
Situ Yan was stunned!
Hearing Jiang Feng's words, she instinctively looked down at her neckline, only to see that from his perspective, he could indeed see her pale skin inside!
Owing to her special job, Situ Yan was very active and needed to maintain rigorous training, so wearing a bra wasn't convenient. She got accustomed to going braless to ease the burden of her voluptuous figure.
Situ Yan had already clocked out when she was called back by her superiors due to a serious incident at Dynasty, and she had forgotten to wear a bra when she left, making the situation more pronounced.
As Jiang Feng spoke, Niu Tao also looked stunned, incredulously turning towards Situ Yan, but he wasn't bold enough like Jiang Feng to stare at the captain—just astonished that Jiang Feng dared to say it in public.
Once Situ Yan snapped out of it, her frost-like face flushed crimson, her inner rage erupted, and she quickly covered her neckline, straightening up, glaring at Jiang Feng in anger, "Scoundrel! How dare you peek at me, or do you want me to gouge your eyes out?"
Jiang Feng looked innocent, "How is it peeking when you brought it to my face?"
"Huff, huff! I see you won't shed tears until you see the coffin!" Situ Yan trembled with rage, her eyes blazing with fury, about to slap Jiang Feng across the face.
"Captain!" At that critical moment, the deputy Niu Tao stood up and immediately spoke out to dissuade her!
"Hmm?" Situ Yan turned back, her anger still simmering, only to see Niu Tao shaking his head with a wry smile.
Niu Tao's eyes suggested: It's different now; investigations are strict, and torture would cause problems.
But Situ Yan was incredibly frustrated; even a regular girl wouldn't let this go easily if faced with such a situation, let alone her?
Would she allow this guy to take advantage of her for nothing?
"Huff, huff!" Situ Yan gritted her teeth, suppressing her inner fury, then said to Niu Tao, "Keep an eye on him for me!"
After finishing, she stormed out, seemingly using this method to vent her anger.
Niu Tao at the interrogation desk looked helpless, but his gaze towards Jiang Feng was filled with sympathy: You're playing with fire, daring to mess with the Captain like this—you won't get away without harsh consequences!
