417: Chapter 417: The Terrifying Little Dark Room – Part 4!
Fourth update!
“Alright, I’ll go with you,” Ye Chenfeng nodded.
Chen Xijun did not handcuff Ye Chenfeng; she knew that even if she did, he could easily escape if he wanted to.
Just as they were about to leave the police station, suddenly two rows of soldiers appeared from both sides and surrounded Chen Xijun, Ye Chenfeng, and the others.
The submachine guns in their hands were unlocked, ready to shoot if Ye Chenfeng showed any signs of escape.
“Who are you?
What do you want?” Chen Xijun asked with a cold face.
Suddenly, a Six Fan Sect agent with a square face walked out from behind.
The armband on his arm showed he came from Capital City, which greatly alarmed Chen Xijun!
This must be someone from the Six Fan Sect!
“Director Yuan, hello.
We are from the Six Fan Sect.
We are here to arrest the criminal Ye Chenfeng,” said the Six Fan Sect agent, still courteous.
Chen Xijun naturally objected, stepping forward to block their way and said, “Arresting criminals is the job of the police; it seems unrelated to you agents, right?”
“Hmm, we normally don’t handle ordinary criminals, but Ye Chenfeng is suspected of killing one of our Six Fan Sect people.
Do you think that falls within our jurisdiction?”
Chen Xijun still held a glimmer of hope and argued with reason, “But according to the law, standard procedures must be followed, right?
The police should investigate and decide afterwards.
Moreover, I suspect Ye Chenfeng has been framed!”
“Whether he’s been framed or not isn’t up to you to decide!” The Six Fan Sect agent’s attitude was very firm.
Chen Xijun said directly, “Here I call the shots.
I want to investigate thoroughly before anyone takes Ye Chenfeng away!”
“Heh, does Captain Chen have some kind of relationship with Ye Chenfeng?” The Six Fan Sect agent asked with an ambiguous expression.
“Watch your language!” Chen Xijun warned.
the Six Fan Sect agent’s expression changed suddenly, “I’ll also remind you, I am following a command from the higher-ups, ordering me to bring Ye Chenfeng back at all costs!”
“You wouldn’t dare!” Chen Xijun shouted angrily.
“You think I wouldn’t dare!” The Six Fan Sect agent took a step forward.
Suddenly Chen Xijun drew her gun and pointed it at the Six Fan Sect agent’s face.
The smell of gunpowder from the gun forcefully invaded the agent’s nostrils, but he inhaled deeply, as if he was enjoying it like a drug.
“Captain Chen, put down the gun.
I’ll go with them,” Ye Chenfeng shouted.
“I won’t!” Stubbornness flared in Chen Xijun, and no one could hold her back.
Suddenly, a very authoritative voice called out, “Chen Xijun, put down the gun!”
“Chief?” Chen Xijun resisted once more.
“Put the gun down!
You don’t have a say here!” Yuan Zhen walked out, his face full of authority that demanded obedience.
Upon hearing this, Chen Xijun finally lowered her gun slowly, her face showing resignation.
“Director Yuan, sorry for the trouble.
I’ll be taking the person with me,” said the Six Fan Sect agent.
“Okay,” Yuan Zhen nodded.
Then Ye Chenfeng was handcuffed by two people and followed the Six Fan Sect agents as they left the police station.
“I’m going to save Ye Chenfeng!” Chen Xijun turned around and followed them.
“Chen Xijun, you get back here!”
“Chief, Ye Chenfeng has been framed,” Chen Xijun was nearly frantic to the point of crying.
“I know, but think about it, the people who arrested him are from the Six Fan Sect.
Just imagine how powerful the person who framed him must be,” Yuan Zhen awakened Chen Xijun to reality.
“Then what should I do, Chief?” Chen Xijun grasped at straws.
With his hands clasped behind his back, Yuan Zhen looked out the window at the departing military vehicle and said, “The high-ranking officials from the Six Fan Sect are about to arrive.
The situation has escalated.
There’s nothing I can do!”
“Will they kill Ye Chenfeng?” That was what truly worried Chen Xijun.
“No, even if they were to kill, they would need a reason,” Yuan Zhen’s words temporarily calmed Chen Xijun down.
Soon after, Su Hang rushed over to Yuan Zhen.
“Boss, what brings you here?” Yuan Zhen couldn’t hide his surprise.
Su Hang replied calmly, “I received the news about Ye Chenfeng and rushed over immediately!
What exactly happened?”
Yuan Zhen whispered discreetly into Su Hang’s ear, “Boss, this is a big deal.
I was supposed to send Ye Chenfeng to prison but the Six Fan Sect intercepted him before I could.
Now, I can’t even visit the prison.
Gu Shaoqing and his three companions’ fates remain uncertain, Peng Yu has been confirmed dead, and Peng Yu’s master, the renowned Tie Long from the Four Famous Captors, is about to arrive in Jiangnan!
Ah, this time, it’s just Ye Chenfeng’s bad luck!”
“It seems the situation is more serious than I thought,” Su Hang’s face darkened.
When Ye Chenfeng got into the vehicle, his eyes were soon covered with a black cloth, and the ride started off smooth.
However, it began to grow bumpy after a while, which made Ye Chenfeng sure they were on a mountain road.
Was the prison located in the mountains?
After about an hour, the vehicle finally stopped, and Ye Chenfeng was pulled out, followed by the clanging sounds of iron doors.
After roughly half an hour of walking, the black cloth was ripped from Ye Chenfeng’s eyes.
Ye Chenfeng felt a wave of dizziness, but as he adjusted, he realized he was in a dark room, and the only sliver of light disappeared as the door closed.
Now, Ye Chenfeng was engulfed in total darkness.
The solitary cell!
Ye Chenfeng suddenly realized he had been locked in a solitary cell.
The cell was about one meter forty in height, width, and length; an adult confined inside could neither stand up nor lie down and could only curl up like a small bug.
Such cells are generally used by state agencies for interrogating important prisoners.
It’s said that this type of cell can extract human capabilities and mind to the greatest extent.
The FBI allegedly uses them the most for interrogating criminals!
The most terrifying aspect of the solitary cell was the darkness that defined it, pure black where you couldn’t see your own hands.
Imagine being locked up under such conditions for dozens of hours; one’s sanity would surely crumble.
Endless silence and darkness would slowly consume your soul, gradually breaking down your psychological defenses entirely!
Almost all criminals would confess under such interrogation methods, but they slightly fall from humanitarian moral standards, so they are usually adopted in secret.
Ye Chenfeng found the environment to be uncomfortably challenging; he could neither lie down nor sit up comfortably.
It was pure torture.
However, having lived under rough conditions before, Chenfeng could still adapt.
After all, he had been overly busy these days; it might not be bad to catch up on some sleep.
In no time, Ye Chenfeng felt overwhelmingly drowsy, then slowly drifted off to sleep, and soon, his snoring filled the room.
After an indeterminate length of time, the clanging of the iron door sounded again, then several intense beams of light shone in.
