Xiao Xue, accompanied by the police and filled with anger and hatred, walked step by step towards the abandoned warehouse where Xiong Yufang was hiding. Along the way, her eyes were burning with rage, the rage seemed to be able to turn everything into ashes. Her hands tightly clenched into fists, nails deeply embedded in her palms, but she was oblivious, only one thought in her mind: question Xiong Yufang, let her pay for what she did.
The abandoned warehouse was located at the edge of the city, surrounded by weeds and crumbling. The walls of the warehouse were covered with mottled rust and graffiti, as if telling the vicissitudes of time and the countless stories that had happened here. The tiles on the roof were broken, and the sunlight poured down through the cracks, forming a golden light, and the dust fluttered in the light, adding a mysterious and eerie atmosphere to the whole warehouse.
The moment Xiao Xue stepped into the warehouse, a pungent putrid odor hit his face, mixed with dust and dampness, making people feel suffocated. The warehouse was gloomy and damp, filled with thick darkness, only a few wisps of weak light struggled to shoot in through the dirt on the windows, forming a hazy patch of light in the darkness. Around them lay some worn-out miscellaneous objects, piled high with rusty iron barrels, rotten wood and discarded machines, which lay there quietly as if they were the guardians of this abandoned space, witnessing the fierce confrontation that was about to take place here.
Xiao Xue's eyes quickly searched for Xiong Yufang's figure in the darkness, not sparing every corner. Finally, she saw Xiong Yufang curled up in a ball in the corner of the warehouse. At this moment, Xiong Yufang was in a sorry state, her hair was messily strewn across her face, her clothes were tattered and dirty, and her eyes were filled with fear and despair. When she saw Xiao Xue come in, her body involuntarily trembled and tried to retreat backward, as if she wanted to integrate herself into the darkness to escape the upcoming questioning.
Xiao Xue slowly walked towards Xiong Yufang, each step firm and heavy, as if carrying the force of a thousand pounds. Her eyes were fixed on Xiong Yufang, that gaze was like a sharp sword, piercing straight into Xiong Yufang's heart, leaving her nowhere to escape. Xiong Yufang raised her head and watched Xiao Xue approach step by step, her lips trembled slightly, wanting to say something, but was choked by fear, unable to say a single word.
When Xiao Xue walked in front of Xiong Yufang, she stopped, and the two of them were less than a meter apart. Xiao Xue's eyes were filled with anger and hatred, her chest rose and fell violently as she tried to suppress the anger that was about to erupt within her. She stared at Xiong Yufang with a deadly stare and said with a trembling voice, "Why did you do this? How could you lay your hands on them? They are still just children!" Her voice echoed in the silent warehouse with endless grief and anger, every word seemed to be squeezed out from between her teeth.
Xiong Yufang's body trembled violently, she didn't dare to look directly into Xiao Xue's eyes, her eyes were evasive. Her hands clutched her body tightly, as if this would give her a little sense of security. Her voice was weak and trembling, trying to defend herself, "Xiao Xue, I ... am also forced to do nothing ah. I owe a lot of money, and if I don't do this, I will be hunted down by those people. I really didn't know what to do at that time." Her tears slid down her cheeks, trying to win Xiao Xue's sympathy by crying.
When Xiao Xue heard Xiong Yufang's words, the anger in her heart intensified. She took a step forward and forced herself closer to Xiong Yufang, yelling, "Forced? You can hurt innocent children for money? Do you know that you have ruined everything for me! My children are my life, and you took their lives away!" Her voice resonated throughout the warehouse as angry tears came out of her eyes and ran down her cheeks. Her eyes were filled with hatred, itching to eat Xiong Yufang alive.
Xiong Yufang was so frightened by Xiao Xue's aura that she retreated back and forth, her back slammed into a broken iron barrel with a dull thud. She looked at Xiao Xue in horror, her eyes filled with despair. She knew that no matter what she said, she couldn't make up for the damage she had caused to Xiao Xue, but she still didn't want to give up her struggle. "Xiao Xue, I know I'm wrong, I really know I'm wrong. I'm willing to accept the punishment, but please believe me, I really didn't think this would happen at that time." Her voice was full of pleading, hoping that Xiao Xue could forgive her.
Xiao Xue coldly looked at Xiong Yufang, the hatred in her heart had not diminished at all. "What's the use of you saying this now? My child will never come back. Do you think your apology will make it all go away? You must pay for what you did!" Her eyes were filled with determination, she would not let Xiong Yufang off easily.
At this moment, the police were quietly observing the confrontation between the two from the sidelines, they hoped that through this confrontation, Xiong Yufang would give a thorough account of her crimes. The presence of the police brought Xiao Xue some security, she knew that no matter what, Xiong Yufang could not escape the sanctions of the law.
Xiong Yufang looked at Xiao Xue's resolute attitude and knew that she could no longer escape. Her psychological defenses began to gradually collapse, she slowly squatted down, held her head with both hands, and let out a loud cry. Her cries echoed in the warehouse, filled with despair and remorse. She began to intermittently explain her own criminal process, from the initial purpose of approaching Xiao Xue, to how to plan to cheat her money, and finally how to ruthlessly poison the child in detail.
Xiao Xue stood on the sidelines, listening to Xiong Yufang's account, the pain in her heart came like a tidal wave. Every word was like a knife, piercing her heart deeply. Her body trembled slightly as tears flowed unceasingly. She remembered the children's former laughter and their innocent smiles, and now, all of this was brutally destroyed by Xiong Yufang.
The police carefully recorded Xiong Yufang's statement, they didn't spare any details to make sure that every fact was accurate. They knew that this confrontation was the key to solving the case, and Xiong Yufang's account would provide important evidence for the final trial.
After Xiong Yufang finished explaining her crime, she raised her head and looked at Xiao Xue, her eyes filled with guilt and remorse. "Xiao Xue, I'm sorry for you, I'm sorry for the children. I know I've committed an unforgivable crime, and I'm willing to accept the sanctions of the law." Her voice was weak and feeble, as if she had lost all vitality.
Xiao Xue looked at Xiong Yufang, the hatred in her heart did not diminish because of her explanation. She knew that no matter what kind of punishment Xiong Yufang received, it would not be able to make up for the hurt in her heart. She said coldly, "You will pay for what you have done, I will watch you receive the punishment you deserve." Her eyes were full of determination, she wanted to witness the realization of justice.
The police took Xiong Yufang away, and Xiao Xue looked at her departing back with mixed feelings. She knows that it is not over, there is still a long legal process to follow, but she believes that justice will eventually be done, and the children will rest in peace in heaven. She secretly vowed to be strong in the face of all this, for the children to get the final justice.
