At first, Zhao Yanan didn't feel anything at all.

She believed that she had never done anything illegal or disciplinary, and even if people from this department came to her, they would just ask her to assist in the investigation.

It wasn't until she saw the men with guns outside the door that she realized that things were not as simple as she thought.

She, the manager of the Regent Hotel, and several waiters were taken downstairs, put into inconspicuous vans, and driven all the way to a small building far away from the city center.

Along the way, Zhao Yanan was in a miserable state of panic.

She dug out all the things she had done in recent years from her memories and went over them in detail.

No matter what, I can't find any reason why I need to be taken away by people from this department.

The only thing to say that she did something outrageous is that she asked someone to find connections and found Chen Ya who abducted Liu Ruyan.

Chen Ya is not a big shot, so why would her investigation of the other party have such serious consequences?

It’s not like she hasn’t checked out previous department-level cadres. She has never seen anything like this!

"Go in." The man behind him said in a low but unyielding voice.

Zhao Yanan was taken to a separate small room. After sitting down, she became even more nervous.

You can tell at a glance that this room is where prisoners are interrogated.

The seat was uncomfortable, and the light directly in front of her face made her eyes uncomfortable. Several people sitting directly opposite took turns staring at her, making her even more uncomfortable.

"Can you please return your phone to me and I'll make a call," Zhao Yanan said, "There must be some misunderstanding here."

A man with a flat head and a fierce face sitting in the middle said: "When you get to this place, you still want a mobile phone? Do you know where this place is?"

"No, I don't know..." Zhao Yanan's body was shaking like chaff. She was not only nervous, but also faintly angry.

She has never been treated like this.

A middle-aged kind-hearted man sitting next to him was drinking tea and said with a smile:

"Don't scare her. Comrade Zhao Yanan, we are here to find you. We want to know some information from you. Don't be nervous."

Zhao Yanan calmed down a little and said: "You don't have an arrest warrant, so you can't arrest me here. My family is a large taxpayer and my father is an outstanding entrepreneur. You can't do this to me."

"Bang!"

The fierce-faced man punched the table so hard that the teacup on the table almost jumped.

"What arrest warrant? Who is a big taxpayer? We suspect that you are colluding with external forces in an attempt to harm our country's security! We hope you will honestly plead guilty and not take chances or take risks!"

Another female voice said solemnly: "Don't say your father is an outstanding entrepreneur. Our colleagues are already on their way to control your father and will be brought back for questioning soon. Don't mention the arrest warrant. If you refuse

If you cooperate, you can be locked up for a few years."

Zhao Yanan was startled.

What she thinks about most is invading the privacy of other citizens. How is it connected with colluding with external forces?

Suddenly, she couldn't even speak.

"I, I didn't do anything! I really didn't do anything!"

The kind-hearted man calmly raised his phone, showed her the photo of Chen Ya on the screen, and said slowly:

"You're investigating this guy, right?"

"Tell me your motive, why do you want to investigate him?"

Zhao Yanan felt very surprised.

"My, my best friend was kidnapped by him. What happened if I investigated him?"

The people sitting in front looked at each other.

Judging from their expressions, they seemed to want to laugh, but couldn't.

The fierce-faced man slapped the table again and said loudly:

"The kidnapping case should be reported to the people's police. What do you mean by private investigation? I advise you to tell the truth honestly and don't make up lies that can be seen through at a glance!"

Zhao Yanan was about to cry: "I didn't lie! I don't even know who that man is..."

The kind-hearted man picked up a piece of information on the table and said leisurely: "Then let's change the topic. Your family is a Sino-Japanese joint venture, right?"

Zhao Yanan nodded: "Yes, yes."

"That is to say, you have a chance to meet Japanese people," the kind-faced man said. "Tell me, which Japanese people have you met?"

Zhao Yanan saw it.

This kind-looking person is the real smiling tiger.

…

After a day and night of interrogation, Zhao Yanan finally saw the light of day again.

She sat down in the car haggardly, and someone threw her cell phone to her from the car window.

"In the future, stop meddling in things that shouldn't be done, and be careful!" The man warned her sternly, "You know what to say and what not to say!"

Zhao Yanan nodded tiredly, turned on her phone and saw that Liu's father and Liu's mother had called her ten thousand times.

Her hand still shaking as she held the phone, she clicked to call back.

"Hello? Uncle and aunt? I'm Yanan..."

"I'm fine... maybe I'm a little tired from insomnia. Ruyan is fine too, she doesn't want to go back for the time being."

"...Don't ask for news about that person. Liu Ruyan is not with that person. She... I don't know where she went."

After hanging up the phone tremblingly, Zhao Yanan looked out the window, still feeling frightened.

By now, she fully understood why she was brought here.

It was because she investigated Chen Ya.

It's not because she found anything, or she did anything illegal or disciplinary during the investigation.

Just because she tried to investigate Chen Ya, just because of this.

Zhao Yanan took a deep breath, held her chest, and tried to calm down.

On the bright side, at least Liu Ruyan was not deceived.

…

After getting off the car, Liu Ruyan and Chen Ya looked at each other.

"what?"

"I haven't eaten enough," she said.

"Tsk, why do you keep thinking about eating every day?"

Chen Ya looked at her waist and saw that it wasn't thick at all.

"It's not your fault," Liu Ruyan blinked, "I didn't eat anything at all, so you just took me away."

"I didn't take you away, you had to follow me."

"I didn't eat enough anyway." Liu Ruyan looked like she wanted him to take responsibility.

"It's too hard to cook now," Chen Ya scratched his head and said, "I can only ask my neighbor's aunt to see if she has anything to eat."

Liu Ruyan thought he was just joking, but unexpectedly, he actually knocked on the neighbor's door.

"Auntie, we missed our meal tonight and we don't have any food at home. Do you still have food at your house?"

"Yes, yes! Come in quickly!"

The aunt enthusiastically pulled the two of them in, looking at Liu Ruyan up and down, as if she liked her very much.

Liu Ruyan felt that it was very bad to bother others, and she also felt that Chen Ya's behavior was a little too familiar.

But seeing how enthusiastic the aunt was, she was a little unsure whether the other party was being polite.

"Lao Zhang, how are you doing lately?"

On the sofa in the room, a thin and tall man stood up with difficulty on crutches, hugged Chen Ya, patted his back, and said angrily:

"Pretty good!"

This man has only one leg.

The neighbor's aunt came out of the kitchen, wiped her hands and said, "I just ate, there is still a little soup at home, there is no more food."

"Then let's have some soup." Chen Ya said.

"That won't work. There must be some left at Aunt Zhao's house next door. I'll ask her."

After saying that, she couldn't stop her and hurriedly went out. After a while, a man and a woman came over carrying a pot of rice and a bowl of vegetables.

"Our family hasn't eaten yet, so I might as well eat with you." Aunt Zhao said with a smile as soon as she walked in.

The man in his family was supported and sat down side by side with the one-legged neighbor just now, looking very affectionate:

"How can we eat when there are so many people with one dish? I think we've called Lao Lu here too. His family is the last to eat. Maybe we can cook more."

Liu Ruyan noticed that this man was wearing sunglasses and was blind.

Chen Ya stretched out his hand: "There's really no need to alarm so many people."

"Don't bother me, I'll call." The neighbor's aunt ran out again.

After a while, this person called that, and that person called this, and a large group of people came to the room, some carrying vegetables, some carrying wine, and they all came here.

Liu Ruyan noticed something.

Each of these neighbors must have a disabled person.
