"Oh, brother, don't worry! I'm really fine. Look at me, I'm perfectly alright. Besides, I even cooked a whole table of food for you guys when I got back!" Shen Xiaoxiao quickly explained.

Hearing Shen Xiaoxiao's words, Xiao Wenjie's expression became even more serious. He frowned and asked, "Little sister, you just said that the police will send people to patrol at night and will hide in the shadows to protect you. Is that true?"

Shen Xiaoxiao nodded and replied earnestly, "Yes, Brother Xiao! That man wasn't awake when we left. Once he wakes up, we should be able to get some useful information out of him."

Xiao Wenjie looked at Shen Xiaochuan thoughtfully, knowing that he was definitely worried about leaving Shen Xiaoxiao alone at home.

So he decisively said, "How about this, I'll go to the police station to find out the specifics, and you stay home and take good care of our sister."

Shen Xiaochuan immediately agreed and said gratefully, "Old squad leader, thank you so much!"

Xiao Wenjie waved his hand with a smile on his face: "Why are you being so polite with me!" Before he finished speaking, he turned and left without hesitation.

A short while later, Xiao Wenjie arrived at the police station. Everyone there knew him very well; after all, he was now the head of the Chengnan Police Station!

As soon as he entered, Officer Deng saw him and recognized him. He hurriedly went up to him with a big smile and asked, "Chief Xiao, you've arrived! Our chief has already left work. Did you come here specifically to see him?"

Xiao Wenjie answered directly, "I'm not here to see him, I'm here to see you. I heard that a human trafficker's accomplice was brought in today, is that right?"

Upon hearing this, Officer Deng was somewhat surprised, wondering to himself: "How did Chief Xiao get the news so quickly?"

However, he quickly recovered and hurriedly replied, "Yes, there is indeed such a person."

Xiao Wenjie seemed to see through Officer Deng's thoughts and took the initiative to explain, "The girl who was almost injured is actually my comrade's sister, which means she's my sister. That's why I'm here to find out what happened."

After saying that, Xiao Wenjie changed the subject and got to the point, "So, is there any new progress? What have the human traffickers confessed to?"

"We've tried everything, but we just can't get him to talk," Officer Deng said helplessly.

Xiao Wenjie did not respond immediately; he simply stood there quietly, lost in thought.

After a while, he slowly asked, "Can I go in and take a look?" His voice was very low.

When Officer Deng heard this, a look of surprise appeared on his face, but he quickly regained his composure.

He nodded quickly and said, "Of course, Director Xiao. I'll take you. I've long heard that your interrogation skills are top-notch; no criminal has ever escaped legal punishment in your hands." After saying that, he didn't forget to flatter Xiao Wenjie.

Xiao Wenjie didn't react much to Officer Deng's praise; he simply followed him silently.

The two arrived at the interrogation room door. Officer Deng stopped and said hesitantly, "Chief Xiao, according to regulations, two police officers must be present during the interrogation process..."

Xiao Wenjie seemed to have anticipated Officer Deng's response. He interrupted him calmly, saying, "I know the rules. However, I'd like to ask him alone first, is that alright?"

Officer Xiao Deng seemed somewhat embarrassed, since it was indeed against regulations.

But he couldn't refuse Xiao Wenjie directly. After thinking for a moment, he said tactfully, "This... in principle, is against the rules."

Xiao Wenjie understood Officer Deng's concerns and didn't want to put him in a difficult position.

He came up with a compromise and said, "Then I'll make a phone call to submit the application, and you can listen in. Is that alright?"

After thinking about it, Officer Deng felt that the method was feasible, so he nodded in agreement.

Seeing this, Xiao Wenjie turned around and went to the phone, quickly dialing a number.

The call was answered quickly. Xiao Wenjie briefly explained the situation and then waited for the other party's response.

After a while, he grunted in agreement, as if he had received a positive response. Then, he handed the phone to Officer Deng.

Xiao Deng hurriedly took the phone, not knowing what the person on the other end said, and after hanging up, he led Xiao Wenjie into the interrogation room.

"Director Xiao, this is the human trafficker. I'm handing him over to you!" After saying this hurriedly, Xiao Deng didn't even wait for Xiao Wenjie's response before running out like a shot.

Xiao Wenjie watched Xiao Deng's departing figure, shook his head helplessly, and then turned and walked into the interrogation room.

Time passed slowly, and after about half an hour, Xiao Wenjie finally walked out from inside at a leisurely pace.

"Go in and give your statement. I'm sure you'll gain something from it." His tone was calm, as if he was already confident about what was to come.

After giving his statement, Xiao Wenjie left the police station and went straight back to Shen Xiaoxiao's home.

As soon as he entered the door, he felt two pairs of eyes staring intently at him. Upon closer inspection, he realized that it was the Shen siblings looking at him with the exact same expression.

Even Xiao Wenjie, known as the "Living Yama," found it hard to bear being stared at by those two gazes.

He couldn't help but chuckle and said, "Alright, stop staring at me like that, you guys are practically wearing holes in me."

"We found out that the trafficker's accomplices were all in Yujiazhuang, and he was the only one who escaped the net."

"He originally planned to take revenge before going to find the leaders of other strongholds, but he never expected to be defeated by the little girl."

"You won't even have a chance to contact other people. So don't worry, you can live in peace from now on."

Upon hearing this news, Shen Xiaoxiao felt a huge weight lifted from her heart, and she breathed a long sigh of relief.

"Great! I can finally live my life in peace. These days of living in fear are unbearable."

Shen Xiaochuan, standing to the side, looked somewhat worried. He frowned and said to Xiao Wenjie, "Then you will continue to investigate the remaining human traffickers, right?"

His gaze was fixed on Xiao Wenjie, trying to find a definite answer in his eyes.

Xiao Wenjie sensed Shen Xiaochuan's worry. He patted Shen Xiaochuan on the shoulder and comforted him, "Don't worry, this time we're cooperating with the army, and we'll definitely wipe out all these human traffickers on these routes." His tone was firm.

Hearing Xiao Wenjie's words, Shen Xiaochuan felt a little more at ease, but he still asked with some unease, "Are you sure you can handle this?"
