The male officer saw her refusing a toast only to eat the penalty wine, his authority challenged, he rushed forward and slapped Qiao Yongyong across the face!
"Smack!"
The crisp, piercing sound echoed through the interrogation room, causing the two female officers to squint and turn their heads away.
The Western-built strength was already great, especially for a policemen, and this slap sent Qiao Yongyong stumbling back a few steps, falling to the ground unable to get up, her ears buzzing so much she couldn't hear outside sounds for a while, her cheek burning with pain, tears spilled out, yet she stubbornly said: "I'm the mastermind."
Perhaps the officers were intimidated by this seemingly fragile Asian girl's unyielding determination, not expecting her to bite her gums so tight, feeling an unassailable sense of defeat, this time they didn't use their hands for a while, muttering a few words among themselves, finally sending her out of the interrogation room.
