Chapter 201 Cause and Effect, Retribution is Inevitable
Provincial Department, Interrogation Room.
The middle-aged woman who reported Ma Fengtian is named Zheng Guiqin, and she is Ma Dafu's wife. Ma Dafu is the friend Ma Fengtian mentioned who transferred the karaoke bar to him and went abroad.
In fact, Ma Dafu and Ma Fengtian had been cooperating in running the karaoke bar. About a year ago, Ma Dafu suddenly disappeared, and Ma Fengtian took the transfer contract and occupied the karaoke bar all by himself.
Zheng Guiqin couldn't believe her husband would transfer the karaoke bar to Ma Fengtian and go abroad alone. She suspected that Ma Dafu had been killed by Ma Fengtian. After reporting it to the police, they were unable to find anything.
Later, Zheng Guiqin appealed to the court, wanting to regain her shares in the karaoke bar, but she lost the case.
After losing the lawsuit and not being able to get her shares back, Zheng Guiqin petitioned the authorities, but the petitions were to no avail.
This angered Ma Fengtian and his son, who threatened Zheng Guiqin's daughter, Ma Lingling, to force her to stop petitioning. Ma Liang even raped and detained Ma Lingling for a month. To prevent Ma Lingling from reporting to the police, he sent her directly to a mental hospital.
For her son's sake, Chen Xiufang went all out and led a group of people to beat her best friend Zheng Guiqin into a cripple, and threatened that her daughter would never be able to leave the mental hospital for the rest of her life.
"That's fucking inhuman!"
After hearing Zheng Guiqin's report, Wu Dali's sense of justice and anger surged.
Qi Tongwei picked up his cup and took a sip of water, his expression calm and showing no signs of excitement.
"Zheng Guiqin, tell the truth, have your husband Ma Dafu and Ma Fengtian been using karaoke bars to traffic drugs?"
A flicker of panic crossed Zheng Guiqin's face, but she forced herself to remain calm. "Officer, my husband didn't deal drugs. I only found out because I heard that Ma Fengtian had been arrested for drug trafficking."
Wu Dali panicked. Shouldn't the priority be rescuing her? "Qi Zhi, I'll take men to the mental hospital right now and rescue her daughter!"
"Officer, please, you're like Bao Zheng (a legendary upright official), please save my daughter! I haven't seen her for over six months, I don't know if she's alive or dead. Please, please!"
Zheng Guiqin grasped at a straw like a lifeline. She tried every possible method over the past few months, but still couldn't rescue her daughter.
Qi Tongwei glared at Wu Dali. "Zheng Guiqin, we will naturally investigate your daughter's matter. Now, please answer my question honestly: Is your husband involved in drug trafficking with Ma Fengtian?"
"Officer, no, really no, my husband doesn't deal drugs."
Zheng Guiqin remained adamant, refusing to budge. "Officer, my husband was definitely killed by Ma Fengtian. I beg you, you must get justice for my husband."
After being glared at, Wu Dali shut up. When the older brother is doing something, the younger brother shouldn't interfere.
Lan Ying had been observing Zheng Guiqin's expression. She seemed like a woman with a bitter enemy, but her eyes also concealed a kind of ruthlessness.
Qi Tongwei didn't completely believe Zheng Guiqin's words and silently lit a cigarette.
"Zheng Guiqin, I have a guess. Listen to what I have to say. Ma Dafu and Ma Fengtian are working together to traffic drugs in karaoke bars. As the profits from drug trafficking grew, they both became envious. Ma Fengtian struck first and monopolized the profits from the karaoke bar drug trafficking."
Zheng Guiqin vehemently denied it, saying, "Officer, please believe me, my husband really didn't deal drugs."
With a loud bang, Qi Tongwei slammed his fist on the table.
"Zheng Guiqin, stop playing the victim with me. If you want to save your daughter, you'd better tell me the truth."
"Officer, everyone applauded your arrest of Ma Fengtian! You're like a savior! Please, please save my daughter! My husband is really not a drug dealer!"
Zheng Guiqin wept bitterly, making Qi Tongwei seem like a great demon.
Wu Dali felt sorry for Qi Tongwei and wanted to speak up, but he couldn't bring himself to do it when he saw Qi Tongwei's angry face.
Lan Ying didn't believe that Zheng Guiqin really knew nothing. Karaoke bars were places where all sorts of people mingled; if you didn't have connections to both the legitimate and criminal worlds, you couldn't possibly run one.
Qi Tongwei dares to call himself Bao Qingtian (a legendary upright official), but he is not a saint, nor will he be morally coerced, because he doesn't have much morality.
“Zheng Guiqin, you must have seen many police officers. You must know why they are unwilling to rescue your daughter. A missing husband versus a daughter suffering in a mental hospital—you should know which is more important.”
"I can give you justice, and I can give your daughter justice, but you can't have your cake and eat it too."
These words were clearly a blatant threat to Zheng Guiqin, forcing her to make the choice that would be most beneficial to herself.
Wu Dali looked at Qi Tongwei in disbelief. "Brother, we are police officers, not thugs."
Lan Ying was no longer as shocked as she had been at the beginning. She had already figured out some of Qi Tongwei's ways of doing things and knew that he could use flexible methods to solve cases in order to achieve his goals.
Zheng Guiqin was struggling and conflicted. Qi Tongwei's words were realistic, but he was the only policeman who could help her right now.
"Officer, can you really save my daughter?"
Qi Tongwei breathed a sigh of relief, but his face remained expressionless. "Zheng Guiqin, I can definitely save your daughter, but you must tell me the truth."
Zheng Guiqin clenched her fists and let out a long, tense breath. If she told the truth, she might face new threats.
"Officer, my husband is indeed involved in drug trafficking with Ma Fengtian."
Qi Tongwei smiled slightly. "You're just like Chen Xiufang; you only know about it but haven't participated."
Mentioning Chen Xiufang's name filled Zheng Guiqin with rage; she wished she could kill this vicious woman.
"Yes, officer, thank you for arresting that vicious woman, Chen Xiufang."
Qi Tongwei stood up, flicked his cigarette ash, and said, "Zheng Guiqin, besides Ma Fengtian, who else is your husband getting close to? Remember, I want the truth. Don't waste my time. You're getting a chance; seize it."
Zheng Guiqin did intend to just name someone to fool Qi Tongwei, but Qi Tongwei's words were loaded with meaning and were still a threat to her. For her daughter's sake, she dared not gamble recklessly, and even less dared to offend the only policeman who might help her.
"My husband seems to be getting very close to Qiu Jinkun, the owner of the Golden Phoenix Nightclub."
Are there any other people?
“I rarely go out socializing with my husband, so I don’t remember much about the other people. I remember Qiu Jinkun quite well because he was very generous and flamboyant. After my husband disappeared, I went to Qiu Jinkun for help, and he swindled me out of 200,000 yuan.”
Zheng Guiqin was not lying. In order to find her husband and save her daughter, she had contacted people in the public security, procuratorate and court. She was cheated out of more than a million yuan, but it was not unjust, because that money was earned from drug trafficking.
Qi Tongwei extinguished his cigarette and listened to Zheng Guiqin's explanation. It was a matter of cause and effect, and retribution was inevitable.
"Zheng Guiqin, your husband is a drug dealer, and the money he earns is drug money. We will investigate this matter thoroughly later. I'll take you to the mental hospital to see your daughter now."
"Thank you, officer! Thank you, officer! Thank you, officer!"
Zheng Guiqin was moved to tears, expressing her heartfelt gratitude. She had been to so many police stations and police offices before, but no one was willing to help her. Today, finally, a policeman was willing to help her save her daughter.
