Sending the Groom to Jail on My Ex-Girlfriend's Wedding

Chapter 25: Su Xuan, Awesome!

The young man looked at Su Xuan with excitement.

At this moment, he fervently hoped that Su Xuan would suggest something for him to act on immediately.

As long as he could reduce his sentence, he was willing to do anything!

Perhaps, after being caught, he had finally realized that some things were only truly valued once lost!

Hearing this, Su Xuan's lips curled into a cold smile.

If only he had known, why bother in the first place?

But considering that he needed assistance to catch the criminal group, he had to rely on others.

As for whether the young man's efforts would result in a reduced sentence after helping, that depended on higher-ups' decisions.

He would help, but it wasn't deceitful.

"How long have you been doing this? Have you been in contact with anyone higher up?"

"Also, where is your base? Where have the other captured children been taken?"

"If you're willing to cooperate with our police in rescuing those children and apprehending the criminals, I can apply for the opportunity to reduce your sentence based on merit once we return..."

"But who knows if you'll seize this chance?"

After Su Xuan finished speaking, the young man's expression suddenly changed.

Although he had anticipated that Su Xuan's words might exceed his expectations, this was way beyond his imagination!

He knew that the reason he had entered the criminal group was because he discovered his cousin was involved and had profited from it, even marrying a wife a few years ago.

Because of such temptations, he had been lured into the organization by his cousin.

While he had regretted his decision since joining, it didn't mean he could easily turn against them...

This demand was incredibly challenging.

It wasn't that he couldn't comply, but his cousin was still inside.

If he kept quiet, his cousin might escape, but if he revealed the truth, his cousin would be captured like him...

His cousin's wife had just become pregnant!

Furthermore, the organization was vast. Even if only their branch was captured, the others might escape.

If he exposed the location of his fellow members, he might face retaliation...

In any case, this would cut off their source of income.

It might even expose the entire organization to danger...

Thinking of the terrifying methods the leader employed, the young man shivered. He felt like death was just around the corner...

So, upon hearing Su Xuan's words, he hesitated.

"This..."

"Officer, it's not that I don't want to do it, but if I actually do this, I'll be the one in trouble."

"In our line of work, betraying one's colleagues brings severe consequences!"

"If they come after me for revenge, what will I do?"

"No, no, I absolutely can't say..."

The young man quickly spoke.

His face showed extreme hesitation.

Although he desperately wanted to secure a reduced sentence, if a reduced sentence meant sacrificing his life, it wouldn't be worth it.

Between freedom and life, he would choose life...

Su Xuan had long guessed his thoughts. Upon hearing the young man's words, he immediately chuckled.

Instead of pressuring him to make a decision, he calmly said,

"Alright, then. After all, I'm just giving you a chance."

"Anyway, as soon as we catch you, we'll eventually find out what you're hiding."

"Unfortunately, you've lost the opportunity for meritorious service..."

"Should you end up inside, just don't claim I didn't give you a chance."

..

After Su Xuan finished speaking, the young man's expression changed instantly.

His once resolute heart was now in turmoil.

Honestly, he truly wanted to secure a reduced punishment for himself, but he was also afraid of the subsequent consequences...

Yet, if he missed this chance, he felt uneasy.

After all, it was an opportunity for a reduced sentence. Why should he let it slip away?

Observing his demeanor, Su Xuan chuckled inwardly.

He casually picked up the hammer beside him and spoke as if in passing.

"Old Zhou, think about it. When we're investigating a case, do those people of theirs know where our information comes from?"

Having worked together for so many years, Zhou Qiang naturally understood his implication and immediately played along.

"That's a given."

"When we're investigating a case, who would know the source of our information?"

"After all, our sources are so diverse. It's impossible for them to trace each one."

After hearing their conversation, the young man's eyes suddenly lit up.

He immediately turned his gaze towards them.

Su Xuan was quite satisfied with this reaction and continued in a coaxing manner.

"Speaking of which, we only need to know where those children are being held."

"Oh, right."

"It would be even better if we knew the routes of those people..."

"With just a little bit of a clue, we can make a move, can't we?"

Although this dialogue seemed directed at Zhou Qiang, it was actually intended for the young man's ears.

Indeed, as soon as he heard these words, the young man's eyes brightened.

In an instant, he felt that he might not have to betray his comrades to gain an opportunity. Even though his cousin was among them, he could help his cousin get a reduced sentence too!

After all, he could discreetly reveal this information, and no one would know it was him...

This way, he wouldn't have to worry about retaliation...

Thinking of this, his heart raced, and he immediately turned to Su Xuan.

"Officer, can you guarantee that my identity won't be exposed if I do this?"

"If it's possible, I'm willing to cooperate with the police..."

"I can tell you everything I know, and I can get my cousin involved too. You can have him help you..."

"He will definitely agree to help..."

The young man rattled off a string of words. Of course, he didn't notice that after he said this, Su Xuan and Zhou Qiang exchanged a glance, both looking somewhat solemn.

Oh boy, there's a cousin involved too?

So, this is a family business!?

However, the fact that the other party was willing to speak was a relief for both of them. Initially, they had thought that this young man would likely remain tight-lipped.

While they had managed to find a child trafficker, capturing their entire operation wasn't going to be so simple.

Thankfully...

This guy seemed to have some sense!

Of course, it could also be because his yearning for freedom had pushed him beyond his limits.

Su Xuan breathed a sigh of relief and lifted the man up. "In that case, let's head to the police station."

The young man, who had completely shed his previous refusal, was now eager. He nodded vigorously, almost as if he couldn't wait to spill everything he knew at the police station.

Seeing this, Zhou Qiang gave Su Xuan a thumbs-up. "Su Xuan, you're impressive!"

"I salute you!"

Zhou Qiang truly hadn't expected that Su Xuan would lead him to catch a child trafficker this time!

This achievement was something he definitely deserved a share of...
