Chapter 155 The truth comes to light
Wu Yong patted him on the shoulder, his tone softening: "Wang Dafa, don't worry. Our public security organs handle cases by seeking the truth and ensuring conclusive evidence. We will never wrong an innocent person, but we will also never let a guilty person go free!"
His words made Wang Dafa feel very uneasy.
He has absolutely no idea what Wu Yong is thinking, let alone how much information he actually knows.
Wu Yong stared intently at him, as if trying to discern something from his expression.
After a moment, he changed the subject and asked, "Wang Dafa, let me ask you, did you take some colleagues from the factory out for drinks last night?"
"Yes...yes." Wang Dafa didn't dare to hide it and nodded honestly.
"This...this is nothing, is it? They invited me before, so I'm just returning the favor."
He spoke haltingly, his eyes darting around, avoiding direct eye contact with Wu Yong.
Wu Yong nodded and continued, "Wang Dafa, as far as I know, you hand over most of your monthly salary to your family, keeping only a small portion for yourself to buy cigarettes. That dinner last night must have been expensive, right? I'm curious, where did you get that money?"
"I...I..." Wang Dafa stammered, sweat starting to bead on his forehead.
"I...I asked my wife for it! What's wrong with that? I...I'm the breadwinner of the family, I earn my own salary, I...I have the right to decide how to spend it! I can make the decision on this little thing!"
Upon hearing this, Wu Yong raised an eyebrow and a barely perceptible sneer appeared on his lips.
"That can't be right, Wang Dafa. I already asked your wife before I came. She said she didn't give you any money to treat everyone to drinks!"
Wang Dafa's expression changed drastically, and he felt a chill run from the soles of his feet to the top of his head.
He never imagined that Wu Yong would meet with his wife before questioning him!
After a moment, he stammered, his voice trembling violently, "I...I...every month...when I get paid...I secretly...save a little...secret money...my wife...she...she doesn't know..."
As he spoke, he secretly observed Wu Yong's reaction, hoping that his explanation would fool everyone.
Upon hearing this, Wu Yong revealed a meaningful smile.
"Wang Dafa, do you even believe what you're saying? I didn't just ask your wife these questions; I asked her other questions too. Your wife told me that she knows exactly how much salary you receive each month! She knows exactly where every penny goes! You, Wang Dafa, have absolutely no chance to save any money on the side!"
His eyes widened in anger, and his voice suddenly rose: "Wang Dafa, I hope you'll behave yourself! Confess and you'll be treated leniently; resist and you'll be punished severely! If you don't tell us the truth and continue to play tricks on us, the police will definitely deal with you severely!"
"Let me tell you, don't think this is a small matter! The nature of this poisoning is extremely heinous! If you really did it, according to the law, you'll have to serve at least ten years in prison!"
"Ten years?!" Wang Dafa was immediately shocked upon hearing this.
He suddenly raised his head, his eyes wide, and cried out in a sob-like voice, "No...no way? I...I heard...that even if this is discovered...it's only...only fifteen days of detention? How...how could the sentence be so severe?!"
As soon as he said that, he immediately realized he had let something slip, and his face turned ashen.
Upon seeing this, Wu Yong turned to look at Jiang Yang.
They exchanged a glance, and everything was understood without a word.
Wu Yong turned his head and said calmly to Wang Dafa, "Wang Dafa, I'm giving you a chance now. Confess and you'll be treated leniently; resist and you'll be punished severely. If you honestly confess, you can still try to get lenient treatment. But if you dare to play tricks again and hide a single word, I guarantee you'll be completely ruined for life!"
Wang Dafa completely broke down and dared not hide anything any longer, telling the whole story in one go.
"The day before yesterday... the day before yesterday, a man I didn't know suddenly approached me... He said... he said he was willing to pay a lot of money to let me... poison the fabric of the women's clothing in the factory... After it's done, he'll give me a large sum of money..."
He became more and more frightened as he spoke, and his whole body was trembling.
"At first, I... I didn't believe him at all. I thought he was crazy, a fraud! But he... he actually showed me his ID! When I saw that, I thought... this might actually work..."
Upon hearing this, Wu Yong did not press for further details and decided to leave the rest to professional interrogators.
He called out towards the door, and two uniformed policemen immediately came in.
"Take him back and interrogate him properly!" Wu Yong ordered, pointing at Wang Dafa.
Two policemen stepped forward, grabbed Wang Dafa from both sides, and took him away.
Wu Yong turned to Jiang Yang and said, "Jiang Yang, don't worry, I will intensify the interrogation and find the person behind this as soon as possible. I will contact you immediately if there are any new developments."
"Thank you very much, Director Wu!" Jiang Yang grasped his hand tightly and expressed his heartfelt gratitude.
"Once this is all settled, I'll definitely treat you to a good drink!"
"Haha, easy to say, easy to say!"
Wu Yong laughed heartily and patted Jiang Yang on the shoulder.
"This is what I should do. There's no need to be so polite between us."
After saying that, he left the garment factory with his men.
Even after Wu Yong and the others left, Chu Lan's brows remained furrowed.
She walked over to Jiang Yang and asked with concern, "Jiang Yang, who do you think did this? How could someone be so heartless as to poison the fabric? Isn't that trying to kill someone?"
A cold glint flashed in Jiang Yang's eyes: "It's hard to say right now, but whoever it is, if they dare to do such shady things behind my back, I, Jiang Yang, will absolutely not let them get away with it!"
The news of Wang Dafa being taken away quickly spread throughout the entire textile factory.
The workers gathered in small groups, whispering amongst themselves.
"Hey, have you heard? Wang Dafa has been arrested by the police!"
"Really? What did he do wrong?"
"I heard they poisoned the fabric! My God, that's a serious crime that could land you in jail!"
"That's terrifying! If someone wore poisonous clothes, they could die!"
……
Various speculations and discussions echoed throughout the factory area, like a pot boiling over.
Looking at the chaotic scene before him, Jiang Yang understood that the most important thing now was to stabilize morale.
He turned to Chu Lan and said, "Chu Lan, go and reassure everyone. Tell them that the matter has been investigated and it was Wang Dafa's personal behavior, and it has nothing to do with the factory. Tell them to rest assured that the factory will strengthen its management in the future and this kind of thing will never happen again. Then tell them to go home and rest, and tell them to go to work as usual tomorrow."
