Please Let Me Go novel Chapter 175

After a while, he put on a weird smile.

In the dark room, Channing lay dejectedly on the damp bed.

In the small room, there was only a bed which was made up of several wooden boards, and on the boards was laid a set of extremely thin and wet bedding.

And just a few meters away from the bed was a squat toilet with nothing to separate the bed from the toilet.

Channing looked at the darkness around him and smelled the pungent sour smell, smiling bitterly.

The reason why the policeman who interrogated him didn't get any clues from him wasn't that Channing was stubborn. If he had really committed a crime, he would probably have confessed if the policeman took some approaches.

But the key was that although Channing might have broken other laws and regulations, he really didn't possess drugs and guns. Therefore, it was impossible for him to come up with anything.

However, only he knew this. Joseph, who interrogated him, only thought that he was being stubborn.

Joseph wanted to take Channing as a clue, track down his guns and drugs, and crack a major case in the end by following the clue. Now that Channing was so stubborn, he knew that it was impossible to get any valuable clues from Channing.

Therefore, on the third day of interrogation, Joseph directly transferred Channing to the detention house.

When he was about to transfer Channing to the detention house, he berated in loud voice and with stern expression, "Don't think that you can escape the punishment as long as you don't admit and say anything. Guns and drugs were all found in your apartment. You're just going to jail!"

After a pause, he continued, "I've told you that you will receive a lighter sentence if you tell the truth. Since you are unwilling to confess, you will be severely punished by the court!"

Facing Joseph's reproach, Channing wanted to cry. He really didn't did it, how could he confess?

Maybe there was still a way. Although Channing had no evidence, he was almost certain that Antonio framed him in retaliation. It was easy for a super-rich man like Antonio to get guns and drugs.

He could confessed what he had done before. Although he had gone too far, it was certainly a much lighter crime than illegal possession of guns and drugs.

Moreover, he believed that the police were capable. Even if they could not get the evidence that Antonio possessed guns and drugs in his home, they would be at least able to find that he was innocent on this issue.

However, in this way, Alvin would be found to be involved in this issue. Then, not only would he not get money from Alvin, but he would also have another powerful enemy--Alvin, apart from Antonio.

Channing didn't want this to happen. More importantly, he believed that Alvin would save him.

Otherwise, once he disclosed everything, Alvin would also be in great trouble.

However, Channing had been in the detention house for three days and Alvin had never appeared.

He was losing his confidence. He didn't want to stay in this hellhole, even for a moment.

To Channing's relief, Alvin came to find him when he was about to lose his grip.

When Alvin stepped into this small room, he couldn't recognize him in the first place because it was dark inside.

On the contrary, Alvin pre-empted him and said, "I haven't seen you for a long time, Channing."
