    Chapter 220: What Did They Actually Do?

    “Wang Mei, remember her?”

    Xiao Yu stared straight into Peng Junlong’s eyes, enunciating every word: “Where is the body?”

    “…”

    Peng Junlong’s body trembled as he bowed his head, clearly shaken as if gripped by terror.

    “Not speaking?”

    Xiao Yu asked icily, “Do you even know that murder is a crime? Do you understand the consequences?”

    Peng Junlong still remained silent.

    “Did you really think we lack evidence?”

    Xiao Yu shook his head. “Think about it—tracking you down answers many questions. Now, where did you hide those fifty-three Surveillance Cameras and the gas line that can knockout and induce hallucinations?”

    At Xiao Yu’s words, Peng Junlong finally lost his composure, his body trembling uncontrollably.

    “That villa’s basement is covered with your fingerprints and shoe prints…”

    Xiao Yu sneered, “Aren’t these proofs enough?”

    “Stop, just stop!”

    Peng Junlong suddenly shouted, as though a horrifying memory had come back to him. His face contorted with terror as he pleaded, “I really can’t say—I just can’t say anything, or else… not only will I die, but my parents will too!”

    “Hmm?”

    Xiao Yu was momentarily taken aback.

    What era are we in?

    A threat like ‘I’ll let you die’—isn’t that laughable?

    Is Peng Junlong a fool?

    Certainly not.

    Then how can he claim someone is willing to kill him and even his family?

    What kind of person could do that?

    “Who is the one with the Seven-Colored Dragon tattooed on his back?”

    Xiao Yu pressed on with his interrogation.

    Police investigations into Peng Junlong’s inner circle have found no trace of such a person.

    The two men who were with him three years ago are most likely not even locals.

    “I can’t say it—I really just can’t!”

    Peng Junlong’s face was etched with terror as he shook his head, “They’ll kill you, truly kill you… You have no idea how ruthless they are. In their eyes, people are nothing but toys, livestock… food!”

    Xiao Yu’s heart sank; his pulse skipped a beat.

    Could it be the kind of meat Xie Shasha consumed… he dared not imagine.

    After all, such acts cross the bounds of humanity!

    “Don’t push me—I really can’t say anything!”

    Peng Junlong, as if struck by a dreadful shock, began babbling incoherently.

    It was a natural response.

    Surely it was those two who instilled in him a terror deep to his core.

    “Still not saying?”

    Xiao Yu scoffed, “Do you really enjoy flirting with death?”

    “No, I don’t want to die.”

    Peng Junlong roared, “And as for Wang Mei—it wasn’t me! It was them. They did it…”

    Ha… Xiao Yu glared coldly at Peng Junlong.

    Peng Junlong fell silent, realizing he’d let too much slip.

    It wasn’t a brainless mistake; it was the natural reaction of someone overwhelmed by panic and fear.

    “Rest assured, your parents are under police protection,” Xiao Yu said.

    He continued, “And if you confess everything, your punishment might be reduced.”

    “Really?”

    Peng Junlong’s face lit up with relief, as if a drowning man had spotted a life preserver.

    “Police don’t lie,” he said.

    Xiao Yu smiled thinly, “Then tell me, what are the names and occupations of those two?”

    Protecting Peng Junlong’s parents is a given.

    As for Peng Junlong himself…

    At that point, would calling him a liar compromise one’s integrity?

    Xiao Yu never cared about such niceties.

    Good people simply don’t make good policemen!

    “I’ve known them for eight years!”

    In a bid to lessen his sentence, Peng Junlong confessed, “We met at a bar. I fancied a girl, and coincidentally, they were there too. Because of her, we almost got into a fight. Later, the bar owner intervened, and after a drink, we hit it off.”

    “After that, we bumped into each other at the bar a few more times, grew closer, shared great conversations, and even ended up… chasing women together!”

    “As for their real names, I honestly don’t know. The guy with the Seven-Colored Dragon on his back—his partner was called Second Brother. The other went by Third Brother. I was the youngest, sometimes called Second Brother, sometimes Third Brother.”

    “One time, they took me to a villa—you know, that very villa. They told me to go home, tossed me the keys, and asked me to help with renovations. Since we were all friends, I lent a hand. They even handed over design blueprints, and we ended up installing a bunch of Surveillance Cameras, along with pipelines and a basement.”

    “Later, they returned. We met a girl at the bar… Wang Mei. That time, the three of us hung out with her at a hotel… Second Brother thought Wang Mei was great, so he handed over the villa keys to her, saying the house was hers…”

    “Everything aligned perfectly…”

    Hearing this, Xiao Yu began piecing the puzzle together.

    Wang Mei was still in college back then, likely visiting Bincheng during the holidays.

    And she met Peng Junlong and the rest of them?

    Then ended up in a hotel with three men…

    Unbelievable—Wang Mei’s actions were extremely brazen.

    So is that how she got the villa?

    No… Xiao Yu frowned.

    In the eyes of some men, a woman like her is utterly worthless.

    How could she possibly be given a villa valued at five million?

    Could it be… Xiao Yu’s eyes suddenly lit up.

    …………………..

    The purpose behind the villa was never that simple.

    Had plans already been set in motion seven years ago?

    “At first, I couldn’t understand how Second Brother and Third Brother could give a house to a woman like her. What were they planning?”

    Peng Junlong continued, “But then, they took me to the basement and I discovered their true motive… voyeurism!”

    “The thrill was undeniable. Through the monitors, we could watch Wang Mei and her boyfriend engaging in all sorts of acts.”

    “That’s when I learned about Second Brother and Third Brother’s twisted tastes. It might be abnormal, but for them, it was normal.”

    “Over the years, our bond grew stronger. They’d vanish for stretches of time, and when they returned, we’d all gather—and sometimes, we’d call Wang Mei out for fun.”

    “Ever since meeting Second Brother and Third Brother, they even took me on trips to other cities. But every time, they never flew or took the train—we always traveled by luxury bus…”

    Mentioning those trips brought a strange, almost horrific expression to Peng Junlong’s face.

    Noticing this, Xiao Yu coldly asked, “So what exactly did you all do during that period?”

    “Women, kids, men, and…”

    Peng Junlong’s expression grew complex and his face turned ashen. “They really are perverts, almost inhuman!”

    “Perverts?”

    “Inhuman?”

    Xiao Yu stared intently at Peng Junlong’s face.

    What on earth did they do to deserve such a description?!
