Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Wen Yunfang knew that she would not have a good ending. She was happy to see another person in the same predicament as her. She was glad to have someone accompany her in her misery.
Mr. Liang had always been in a high position. He did not need to speak. He only needed to cast a glance, and it was enough to make people feel uneasy.

Jiang Yao saw that they were ready to start interrogating Wen Yunfang and her mother, so she tactfully watched from the side and did not say anything. Even though she was a little puzzled as to why Mr. Liang, who was interrogating the criminal, had brought her there, she did not ask any questions.
The person in charge of questioning them was not Mr. Liang, but the other two military officers beside Mr. Liang. After Mr. Liang finished his sentence, he sat there and watched and did not say anything else.
“She’s also a criminal. Why is she able to sit so comfortably?” When Wen Yunfang saw that Gu Junhui still received special treatment, she was so angry that she gritted her teeth. “You military men are so ignorant. Can’t bear to be rude to her just because she looks good?”
Jiang Yao had lowered her eyes to look at her phone to send a message. When she heard Wen Yunfang mention her again, she raised her eyes to glance at Wen Yunfang and raised her eyebrows. In the end, she was too lazy to talk to Wen Yunfang, so she quickly lowered her eyes again.
The account book found in the house in Xiang City was enough to convict the mother and daughter duo. The purpose of interrogating Wen Yunfang and Sister Wen was to get more clues. He wanted to learn any information about the boss behind that group.
After the military officer finished interrogating them, he saw that the older woman had kept her mouth shut, but the younger one focused on the spy. He raised his hand and slammed it on the table. The loud sound was deafening in that small room.
“If you want to live, you have to cooperate with the military. If the clues you provide are valuable, perhaps the military will consider the discretion to plead on your behalf to the court to avoid the death penalty.” As the officer spoke, he looked at the older woman and said, “Your daughter is only 20 years old. You have to consider whether you want your daughter to be executed like you!”

“Of course, there’s a difference.” Jiang Yao changed her sitting posture and finally raised her head from her phone. “Life imprisonment means that she will be alive. As long as she performs well in prison, she will have the opportunity to reduce her sentence. That opportunity is hope. Even if she stays in prison for more than 20 years, she will still be released one day. Staying alive is hope.”
Of course, Jiang Yao was only trying to coax Sister Wen. The two women were both not educated much, so they did not understand the law.
People like them who had committed serious crimes would face the firing squad.
However, Jiang Yao was not a lawyer. She did not need to be responsible for her words. So what if she had lied? As long as Sister Wen believed her, it would be fine.
Sister Wen’s weakness was Wen Yunfang, so if she wanted to cooperate with the interrogation, she only needed to hold onto Wen Yunfang.
