The two public officials conducting the interrogation were panicked to this extent precisely because they were well aware of Xu Qingxue's background.
"Hmph!" With a cold snort from her haughty nose, Xu Qingxue turned and headed towards the temporary detention area. As Deputy Chief of the district, she was well aware that some of the methods used by the officers below in handling cases were not exactly honorable.
Seeing Xu Qingxue turn to leave, Xia Guifang quickly got up and followed behind her. On one hand, she was afraid that the police would continue to press her if she stayed, and it felt safer to stay behind this female chief. On the other hand, she was also worried about Wang Xiaoqiang and afraid he might be harmed.
