Chapter 642: Chapter 635: A Narrow Escape from Death
Ever since Wu Chengzu was detained in the holding cell, he had been silent, often sitting alone with his head down, lost in thought, not knowing what he was considering. Sometimes, officers approached to observe his state, but his expression remained natural, showing no sign of joy or anger.
Except for the first few days when he requested to see his daughter, he hadnāt spoken since, not uttering a single word.
Wu Chengzuās behavior made people more uneasy, like the calm before a storm, seemingly peaceful, yet turbulent beneath the surface.
Gao Sheng brought Xiao Feng to the holding cell because Wu Chengzu, silent for a long time, suddenly asked to see them today. Curious about what Wu Chengzu wanted to say, Gao Sheng brought Xiao Feng here.
After a short wait, Wu Chengzu was brought in. After a period of absence, Wu Chengzuās previously clean face had become stubbly, adding a bit of ruggedness.
Upon entering, Wu Chengzu saw Gao Sheng and Xiao Feng, and immediately a smile appeared on his previously expressionless face.
Xiao Feng deliberately avoided Wu Chengzuās eyes, as his gaze was too intimidating; anyone with slightly poor mental resilience wouldnāt dare to look directly.
Undoubtedly, Xiao Feng felt guilty facing Wu Chengzu, knowing Wu Jingjing was not in police custody. A girl missing outside was entirely due to their oversight. Therefore, seeing Wu Chengzu now made Xiao Feng feel a bit awkward.
Wu Chengzu sat in the chair, politely thanked the officer who brought him.
The officer raised his eyebrows, surprised by Wu Chengzuās politeness, but said nothing; after all, polite or not, he was still a criminal!
"Alright, what do you want from us?"
Wu Chengzu fiddled with his handcuffs, "Can these be unlocked? I want a smoke, havenāt had one recently, and the craving is hard to bear."
Gao Sheng glanced at the handcuffs, "They canāt be unlocked, but I can give you a cigarette."
With that, Gao Sheng personally lit a cigarette and placed it in Wu Chengzuās mouth.
Wu Chengzu took a deep inhalation, expressing extreme excitement, resembling the expression of a drug addict consuming drugs.
However, Wu Chengzu, despite producing these things, never touched them himself.
Quickly, Wu Chengzu smoked half the cigarette, raised both hands, pinched it, glanced up at Xiao Feng, "Officer, you seem very nervous?"
Gao Sheng looked at Xiao Feng, his face darkened.

Xiao Feng immediately sat up straight, replying coldly, "Donāt beat around the bush! Hurry up, tell us why you called us here!"
Wu Chengzu chuckled, "Nothing, just bored, wanted to chat~"
With that, Wu Chengzu leaned back, relaxed in the chair, looking at Gao Sheng and Xiao Feng with interest.
Gao Sheng sneered, realizing he was being played by Wu Chengzu; if he wanted to play, he would play along!
Then, Gao Sheng lit a cigarette himself, eyes teasing, "Your external associate should be a woman, right? Who is she?"
Wu Chengzu, holding the cigarette ready to place it in his mouth, paused, then smiled and said, "I donāt know what youāre talking about."
Gao Sheng flicked ash, exhaled smoke onto Wu Chengzuās face, "Doesnāt matter, youāll know sooner or later."
"Heh, well, wait and see~"
For the next nearly fifteen minutes, the room was silent. Wu Chengzu wanted to smoke, and Gao Sheng gave him cigarettes, while he and Xiao Feng watched his performance.
Until Wu Chengzu finished the last cigarette, "Letās end here today, officers, Iāll look for you next time Iām bored."
Gao Sheng and Xiao Feng were about to stand up when Wu Chengzu suddenly leaned forward, grabbed Xiao Fengās neck with both arms, smashing his head onto the table. Eyes red, he shouted in Xiao Fengās ear, "Whereās my daughter! Whereās my daughter!"
Wu Chengzu applied force, Xiao Feng felt deadly suffocation, feeling he was near death, as if Wu Chengzu wanted to snap his neck.
Gao Sheng and nearby officers rushed forward, several of them together subduing Wu Chengzu.
Wu Chengzu nearly went berserk, his robust body struggling violently, "My daughter isnāt in your custody!"
Xiao Feng slumped in the chair, gasping for air, narrowly escaping death. He didnāt expect Wu Chengzu to explode with such energy in this situation.
Gao Sheng grabbed Wu Chengzu, eyes menacingly glaring at him, told the guard officer, "Heās aggressive! Increase his security level!"
