Chapter 170

They had to interrogate Wallace and get useful information before anyone at the farmers‘ market started getting suspicious.

But Wallace was firm. He kept insisting that he had nothing to do with that corner store and that he did not care if the police investigated it.

Moreover, Wallace had no criminal record.

“They might just be doormen and had nothing to do with the crime itself. The transactions were all in cash, and those bills have already been circulated through everyday business.” Bennett speculated.

This was the hardest part. Ordinary citizens, afraid of getting dragged into legal trouble, would deny everything no matter what.

It was clear that Wallace knew a bit about the law. He understood that he could completely clear himself of any charges, which made him even more unwilling to talk the truth.

At that moment, Quinlyn stood up. “Let me try.”

Bennett trusted Quinlyn completely. He got up and headed for the interrogation room, followed by Quinlyn. He knocked on the door, signaling for the officer taking notes to step out.

Quinlyn pushed the door open and walked in.

“Bennett, Quinlyn has never done an interrogation before. Are you sure she can handle it?” one of the officers asked.

In all their previous cases, Quinlyn had only gone undercover and gathered intelligence.

Bennett was not sure either. “Let her try. If it doesn’t work, we can al-” He had not even finished his sentence when he saw the officer staring into the interrogation room, mouth hanging open in shock.

Through the one–way glass, Bennett instinctively looked inside. Quinlyn was holding a book against Wallace’s chest and repeatedly slamming her fist onto it.

A minute later, Quinlyn walked out. “He confessed.”

Bennett and the other officers who had witnessed the scene were all stunned. Quinlyn had always been gentle and mild- mannered. None of them had ever imagined she could be that aggressive.

Bennett wiped a hand down his face, forcing himself to shake off his shock. He sent an officer in to take Wallace’s statement, then walked over, leaned down, and gritted his teeth as he asked Quinlyn, “Who taught you to use force in an interrogation?”

Quinlyn blinked, looking genuinely puzzled. “That’s how cops do it in the movies.”

Bennett rolled his eyes.

Quinlyn had left Wallace so psychologically shaken that he said everything out quickly and in full detail.
