Stuck in a Chinese novel

He then raised his head and curiously asked, "Why are you here anyway? I told you, you have a free day today." Xia Lu took the seat opposite Wei Jun and nonchalantly said, "I was getting bored at home so I decided to come here. Also, I needed to practice a few scenes in the studio."

Wei Jun nodded and said, "That\'s good. When I get back we will be shooting non-stop so make sure you\'re well-rested and your schedule is open."

"Get back? Are you going somewhere?" Xia Lu curiously asked. Wei Jun smiled at her question and answered, "You will know in a few minutes." His answer was vague and only left Xia Lu even more.

As she was mulling over it, the door to the office opened and Lao Chen entered a little panicked as he said, "Young master, the police are here to arrest you." Xia Lu was astonished by the news and didn\'t know what to say but before she could, Wei Jun interrupted her.

"I know." Wei Jun simply replied as he closed the file in front of him.

"You know?!" She asked, even more, confused by the lack of panic on Wei Jun\'s face. He was acting as if he was going to have dinner any moment. The absence of panic or fear left both Xia Lu and Lao Chen shocked.

"Practice your scenes." Wei Jun simply said while getting up and then addressed Lao Chen, "Don\'t deploy any lawyers until tomorrow no matter what. Tell that to the family head. Tell him it is a must request from me." Wei Jun didn\'t wait for the reply from either and walked out of the office leaving two still very shocked people.

When outside, Wei Jun saw a platoon of cops in navy blue shirts and dark pants along with two men in casual wear.

When they saw him, the bodyguards moved out of the way and one of the detectives spoke, "Wei Jun Ruan, we have a warrant for your arrest. If you resist, we are allowed to use extensive measures."

"Sure." Wei Jun nonchalantly replied while extending both of his hands forward fists closed and said, "Just cuff me and get it over with."

Wei Jun\'s behavior left everyone in shock just like the two shocked people inside his office. Even the detective was greatly taken aback. Still, he cuffed Wei Jun after a few seconds and said, "You have to right to an…"

"I know my rights." Wei Jun interrupted the detective and began to walk out of the building on his own. The policemen looked at the detectives for directions who were at a loss for what to do themselves.

Wei Jun stopped because he didn\'t want it to look like an arrest resist to let the police guide him to the car which they soon did after getting over how strange it was for someone to be so eager to be arrested.

Wei Jun was arrested and taken to the police station where his fingerprints were taken which was a bad thing for Wei Jun but he had a plan for that as well. Once it was done, he was frisked to search for any kind of weapons and once that was done, he was brought to the interrogation room where a detective was waiting for him already.

"Let me begin by stating the charges against you. You are under arrest for fourteen first-degree murder charges out of which three happened at the Sundown motel where three males were murdered. As for the rest found at \'The Club\' were eleven males murdered with two different guns.

I want you to know that you have a right to an attorney and we can begin as soon as you can arrange for one otherwise, we would have to begin." The detective said all of it in one breath and then waited for Wei Jun to speak.

However, no response came. Even after a minute, Wei Jun uttered no response. The detective repeated the question, "Mister Ruan, would you like to ask for an attorney or should we begin?"

Again, no response came. Wei Jun just kept staring straight at the wall with an occasional blink only. His face was expressionless, not even cold.

"Mister Ruan, if you do not answer, your right to an attorney will be revoked." The detective spoke once again, a little sternly but still, Wei Jun\'s response remained the same, nothing. For several more minutes, they tried every warning to get Wei Jun to talk but he never did. He just kept staring at the wall silently with slight blinks every now and then.

"Mister Ruan, where were you on the morning of the 15th of last month?" One of the detectives asked. The other one stood behind him with his back against the wall. They had been going at it for hours now but there was no response from Wei Jun and they were the third pair to question him. The other two left in anger because they were afraid they might do something regretful.

"Mister Ruan, you know that if you do not answer, we will have to take this matter to the court." The detective leaning against the wall spoke. She stepped forward and said, "I\'m sure the public would like that very much. You will be famous even before the release of your film."

Wei Jun didn\'t reply and simply turned his head slightly to look at her. He smiled a bit which relieved the other detective thinking he was about to speak but the words that left his mouth were of no help to them, "A movie would soon be released. I wonder how famous the people in it would be then?"

"Pardon?" The female detective asked with her eyebrow quirked. Wei Jun turned his head back straight and went back to his earlier state, the state of silence.

"Haaa… We\'re obviously not going anywhere with this. We should take the night off. We will continue tomorrow." The male detective said.

"Mhm." The female detective nodded in consent before she turned to Wei Jun and said with a smile, "Enjoy your stay here, Mister Ruan."

A girl was sitting in front of her laptop. She was eating from a bag of chips and taking slow slurps of a soda with it. On her laptop, a program was being loaded and was currently at 99%. Just as the program was completed, the girl sighed and said to no one but herself, "Hope you know what you are doing, boss."

She then took out her phone and called someone. "Hello. Who is this?" the voice on the other side asked.

"Is this Lao Chen? I am Li Wei. I have instructions for you from the boss." Li Wei said. Lao Chen hurriedly asked, "What? What are they?"

"Boss told me he wants you to send his attorney to the Yuan Yin General Hospital." Li Wei replied.

"What? Why the hospital?" Lao Chen asked, flabbergasted and confused.

"I have no idea. It\'s just what he said." Li Wei replied.

"Haaa… Very well. I will see to it." Lao Chen replied and hung up the call.

It was nighttime in the police station and aside from a few operators and constables, no one was there. One of the constables sat outside the holding cell, keeping an eye on Wei Jun. He was still in remand and couldn\'t be transferred anywhere until this case was still under investigation.

Wei Jun sat straight in the cell with no movements. He hadn\'t even budged that had lowered the guard of the constable who busied himself with a model magazine. Wei Jun observed him for a while before he turned his head to the CCTV camera in his direction. When he saw the blinking light on the camera go off, he smiled.

He turned to the constable and said, "I\'m hungry."

"What?" The guard asked, a little irked for being disturbed.

"I said I\'m hungry. I have been in detention the entire day. I require food." Wei Jun explained himself nicely.

"Haa…. Sure. Wait a few minutes. I will see what I can get for you." The constable sighed, stood up, and left the area. Wei Jun didn\'t wait for even a second after the constable moved out of the hall and stood up with his elbow pointing at his face.

His hands were cuffed so the only weapon he could use was an elbow but the elbow was the perfect tool in his current situation after all, the hands don\'t mimic the given injury. If he wanted to imitate an injury given by someone else, he needed to use a limb that didn\'t leave a direction imprint.

He swung his arm and his elbow struck him straight in the face and blood flew out of his mouth. He didn\'t stop and did the same again to his abdomen. Then he struck one of his ribs as a breathless gasp left his mouth.

[Your lung has been pierced]

[Using emergency aid]

[Further damage would be blocked]

Wei Jun smiled and continued to harm himself. He did it again and again until he was bruised from head to thighs where his elbows could barely reach. He then did the last one because the pain from his lung was becoming dangerous at the moment. The system was holding it from worsening but that only prolonged his suffering. His last move was to hit the bars of the cell with his left elbow.

He hit it so hard that his bone fractured.

Wei Jun stopped at this point and simply fell to the floor.

"Hey! What the…" The constable returned only to find Wei Jun unconscious and hurriedly shouted. "HELP!!! CALL AN AMBULANCE!!!"
