Volume 1 The Turmoil in the Small Town Chapter 47 The Interrogation
"Bang!"
Li Qiang, who had not received a response to several questions, slapped the table violently, expressing the anger in his heart.
And Wu Yu, who was covered in cold sweat, was also startled by this loud voice, but he did not become more nervous because of this, but calmed down, and his mind moved again.
"The clothes and body are very similar to the thief Lao Qi, but I can't see his face clearly, and he doesn't make a sound, there is still a possibility that someone else is pretending! Let's see what Li Qiang will do next, if this 'Lao Qi' keeps raising his head silently, then it may be that Li Qiang found someone to cheat me!"
Wu Yu thought of this in his heart, and at this moment, the thief Lao Qi, who had been bowing his head and saying nothing, suddenly raised his head and scolded Li Qiang and the others in front of him:
"You bastards, huh!"
"I want Lao Tzu to betray my brother!
And when he raised his head and cursed, his eyes suddenly noticed Wu Yu sitting in the center, and Wu Yu also looked at him directly at this time, looking at each other, and there was a little inexplicable meaning in their eyes.
"It's really the old seven bandits! These bastards are hiding from me like this!"
Wu Yu exclaimed in his heart, he clenched his fists, but his face in the face of the bandit Lao Qi was still plain, he knew that only by behaving like this, this bandit Lao Qi would continue to insist.
"Hehe, what a righteous bandit. Li Qiang sneered.
"However, I wonder if your brute accomplices will be as righteous as you?"
"What do you mean?" said the thief Lao Qi coldly.
"Hehe," Li Qiang sneered, and then pointed to Qiu Rui beside him.
"This is Mr. Qiu Rui from the Juetian Academy, I guess you bandits have heard of it, right?"
"Qiu Rui?" the thief Lao Qi heard this name, and his face changed greatly.
"Whether you say it or not, Mr. Qiu will take you back to Juetian City, with such a strong escort, do you think it is possible for your brothers to come to save you?"
"According to the report of the sentry I sent, a few days ago, several groups of people secretly left the realm of Luoshen Town and headed in the direction of Obsidian Mountain, presumably it was your group of good brothers, right?"
Listening to Li Qiang's words, the old seven's face changed in an instant, and Wu Yu's hand on the side also clenched tighter, and he secretly said in his heart:
"It's not good, this Li Qiang actually cheated! Move out of Qiu Rui, I'm afraid this old seven will really believe it!"
Wu Yu's mood at the moment was also extremely nervous, because if he said something hinting here, Li Qiang would just stop, then Qiu Rui would definitely suspect him.
"That is to say!" Li Qiang continued with a contemptuous expression:
"Your bandit brothers have given up on you a long time ago. You think they're going to be enemies of Mr. Qiu for you?!"
Lao Qi's expression became more and more violent, he seemed to be thinking about something in his heart, and the entanglement on his face became more and more obvious.
"Gotta find a way to remind him!"
Wu Yu saw the shaky expression of the old seven, and said a little anxiously in his heart, and at this moment, the old seven's head suddenly flicked, and an indifferent expression appeared on his face.
"Hmph, even if you really give up on me!"
"Lao Tzu just doesn't want to do what you want! I just don't want to see you giggling! I want to know from me that they are going out?
After that, the old seven's eyes widened, and a strange movement came out of his mouth, and a beam of blue light finally emitted from him, Wu Yu looked at it fixedly, only to see that the blue light restrained the teeth of the thief Lao Qi, preventing him from moving the slightest.
"Want to bite your tongue and kill yourself?" Qiu Rui sneered when he saw this.
"Should I praise you or call you stupid? Don't you know that we put a lot of restrictions on people before we interrogate them?"
"I advise you to tell the truth as soon as possible, so as not to suffer the pain of the flesh and skin!"
Li Qiang softened his tone at this time and said:
"As long as you say it, we can guarantee that you won't die!"
However, the thief Lao Qi kept his head down and remained silent after biting his tongue failed, no matter what Li Qiang and Qiu Rui said, or even used punishment, he remained motionless and silent.
"That's right! ”
Wu Yu was overjoyed in his heart, as long as the thief Lao Qi kept such a dead pig and was not afraid of boiling water to delay time, he would have a chance to get rid of Lao Qi, and then leave Luoshen Town and make a comeback!
And at this moment, Li Qiang's bland words once again pulled him into the abyss.
"Mr. Qiu, this person is so stubborn and stubborn, I don't think he will speak anymore, I suggest that you search the soul directly, there is no need to waste time. ”
Qiu Rui was stunned for a moment, he thought for a while, then nodded and said:
"It's okay, instead of wasting time like this, it's better to search for the soul directly, although his whole person may be abolished, but it's better than letting the hard-won opportunity slip away. ”
"Soul search?!" Wu Yu exclaimed.
"Yes, soul search, I'm going to search his soul directly, probe his memory. Qiu Rui glanced at Wu Yu, then stood up and walked towards the thief Lao Qi as he spoke, at this time his right hand was already enveloped by an illusory white light.
Seeing this, Wu Yu secretly screamed in his heart, damn Li Qiang actually made such a move!
Soul searching was a high-level secret technique, and he knew that Qiu Rui would use this secret technique, but he never expected that such a secret technique would be used at the beginning of the interrogation.
"It's all Li Qiang, the bastard, who is fanning the flames next to him!"
And just when Wu Yu's heart was full of anger, Qiu Rui's big hand had already been raised and put towards the top of the head of the thief Lao Qi.
"Mr. Qiu, slow down!"
The voice from behind him made Qiu Rui stop moving, he turned to look at the owner of the voice, Wu Yu, and said expressionlessly:
"What's the matter, Mayor Wu. ”
"I don't think it's appropriate to use Soul Search right now. Wu Yu was sweating a little on his forehead and said.
"What's wrong?"
"At this time, using soul searching, even if you find information related to the bandits, so many days have passed, and those bandits are estimated to have already moved to other places. ”
"Besides, there is a limit to soul searching, that is, the information we view is not too stable, if some information is missed by us, and the person's soul is damaged again, our only source of information is gone. ”
"So, the junior suggested keeping him for the time being and interrogating him slowly, so that the information could be fully grasped!" Wu Yu said loudly, his eyes revealing sincerity and eagerness, and Qiu Rui listened to Wu Yu's words and fell into contemplation again.
"Mr. Qiu, this person will definitely not speak, if we continue to waste time, I am afraid that such a good opportunity will be wasted. Li Qiang, who was on the side, saw Qiu Rui, who was hesitating, and also said loudly.
"Mr. Qiu! We can't be so short-sighted just because of a little setback today! We must be safe, and only by being safe can we eradicate this group of bandits!" Wu Yu was not to be outdone, and continued to argue loudly.
"Mr. Qiu..." Li Qiang wanted to continue to refute, but at this time, Qiu Rui waved his hand at him, and at the same time, the right hand that emitted white light gradually dimmed. Qiu Rui looked at Li Qiang and said:
"I think what Mayor Wu just said is reasonable, Brother Li, we were really too anxious just now, we should indeed be safe. ”
Li Qiang no longer refuted when he heard this, he thought for a while, and said slowly:
"Since Mr. Qiu has said so, I can't say anything. But!"
Li Qiang's expression suddenly became very serious.
"I'm still sticking to my opinion! Bandits can sneak into a town, and there must be an internal response in this town! If we waste time, maybe these bandits will really disappear without a trace. When the time comes, what's the use of us being safe?"
"What does Brother Li mean?" Qiu Rui said.
"One day! Tomorrow at this time, if he doesn't say it, then use soul searching! If Mr. Qiu doesn't use it, I will search the soul myself, although it will seriously injure me, but it is better than letting these bandits escape easily. Li Qiang cut the railway, and at the same time he twisted his head towards the thief Lao Qi.
"What I said just now was also for you, if you recruit from the truth, it may save your life, if you still don't say it tomorrow at this time, hum!"
Li Qiang snorted coldly, the meaning was self-evident, and the thief Lao Qi's body trembled, and then there was no other movement.
Qiu Rui and Wu Yu were both stunned by Li Qiang's tough attitude, and from Li Qiang's words, they could feel his deep obsession with chasing the bandits.
"Mayor Wu, what do you think?" Qiu Rui, who came back to his senses, asked Wu Yu.
"I... I agree with Captain Li Wu. Wu Yu said hesitantly. He didn't dare to refute again, because he was afraid that Li Qiang would be in a hurry and directly search for the soul of the thief Lao Qi.
Li Qiang does have that strength and that guts!
"So be it. Qiu Rui said, and then he looked at Li Qiang and said with a smile:
"I didn't expect Brother Li to be so obsessed with bandits!"
"For these beast bastards, everyone in Luoshen Town and even Juetian City can't wait to eat their flesh and drink their blood, isn't it?" Li Qiang also responded with a smile.
Qiu Rui was stunned for a moment, smiled slightly, and said:
"Exactly. ”
"Mr. Qiu, if today's interrogation is over, the juniors will go back first. Wu Yu, who was on the side, stood up and suddenly interjected.
"Oh yes, that's all for today. Qiu Rui glanced at the thief Lao Qi, who was like a dead pig, and said.
"Brother Li, then I will leave first, and the follow-up work will trouble you, tomorrow we will increase our efforts and try again!"
"Good. Li Qiang nodded, and then Qiu Rui and Wu Yu turned away.
And when Wu Yu walked to the door, the words from behind him once again made him break out in a cold sweat.
"By the way, just in case, I'll always live here after that. Li Qiang's eyes froze, and his expression was serious.
"Until the interrogation reveals something useful!"
At this time, Wu Yu didn't dare to turn around at all, cold sweat soaked his underwear at this time, and he hurriedly quickened his pace until he left the basement and left Li Qiang's mansion.
After a while, only Li Qiang and the thief Lao Qi were left in the underground secret room, and when the sound of the door closing outside the mansion sounded, Li Qiang, who had been solemn, exhaled deeply, and a relaxed and happy expression appeared.
"Finally took the bait. ”
It was not Li Qiang who said this, but the "thief Lao Qi" who was sitting on the other side, and I saw that the old seven was bubbling with blue points of light at this time, and the blue points of light gradually increased, submerging his whole person. After a few seconds, the point of light gradually dissipated, and it was no longer the thief Lao Qi who was sitting here, but Tao Mei, who was dripping with blood from time to time.
"Aunt Tao, your injury..."Li Qiang looked at the wound on Tao Mei's body because of the torture just now, and couldn't help but feel a little distressed and guilty in his heart.
"It's okay, these are minor injuries. Tao Mei waved her hand, and at the same time her hands began to glow with green light, and after the green light shone on the wound, the blood immediately stopped flowing, and then she took a pill from her pocket and put it in her mouth, ignoring the wounds.
"I didn't expect it to be the same as what you said, looking at Wu Yu's reaction, he and those thieves are just a cooperative relationship, not exactly a gang. ”
"But how do you know?" Tao Mei came to Li Qiang's side, pulled out a chair and sat on it.
"Feeling. Li Qiang said with a smile.
"Feeling?" Tao Mei raised her eyebrows slightly, as if she was not satisfied with this answer.
"Actually, it is more accurate to say that I made a judgment based on my understanding of Wu Yu, after all, the two of us have worked together for so many years. ”
Li Qiang looked at Tao Mei and said slowly:
Wu Yu seems to be humble, but he is very proud in his heart. It seems to be generous, but in fact it is narrow-minded. It seems to be faithful, but in fact it is very suspicious, seemingly gentle, but in fact it is ruthless. ”
"If you want him to show his flaws, you have to take advantage of his suspicion and make him suspicious of his partner. As for why I judged that he was only in a cooperative relationship with the thief, it was because in addition to the pride in his heart, this person also had a 'characteristic', and this 'characteristic' is probably known to Aunt Tao. ”
"What?"
"Wu Yu has an inexplicable obsession with Luoshen Town! His obsession is extremely deep, like a cat and dog that is extremely protective of food, and does not allow Luoshen Town to fall into the hands of others. ”
Li Qiang paused and continued:
"When the old mayor was still alive and Wu Yu was still the son-in-law of the old mayor, I felt like this. He didn't crave power, he didn't crave money, he just wanted Fallen God Town to be his thing. ”
"After he became the mayor of the town, he did not greed for money, but did not abuse his power, and third, he did not persecute any townspeople except me, including Aunt Tao, you also know this. ”
Tao Mei nodded, although she and Li Qiang were very close, Wu Yu really didn't feel sorry for her.
In his heart, Fallen God Town is his thing, including all people and things. I guess the reason why he didn't reject me so much was because we were all outsiders. ”
Li Qiang's face was slightly gloomy, and he continued:
"It was because of his obsession that I concluded that he would not join the bandits, but cooperate with them. I even felt that he was forced to cooperate with the bandits. ”
"Because as soon as you get involved with the bandits, Luoshen Town is at risk of being contaminated and robbed by others. He knew that there was such a risk and continued to cooperate with the bandits, which showed that the special move had an extraordinary meaning to him. I don't know what that means. ”
Li Qiang smiled and said:
"Of course, the rest is just another feeling for me. No matter what the truth is, we have now succeeded in making Wu Yu suspicious of the bandits, and then it will be up to Wu Yu to make his movements!"
"If my guess is correct, he will definitely send someone to observe the situation here in the future, and want to get rid of the so-called bandit Lao Qi. But what if we don't give him a chance at all?"
"Hmph!" Li Qiang sneered and stopped talking.
Tao Mei listened to Li Qiang's narration silently, and when Li Qiang said that Wu Yu regarded the town as his own, an incident that happened decades ago suddenly appeared in her mind.
It was a tragedy, decades ago, the position of the mayor of Luoshen Town was inherited by the Zhang family from generation to generation, and one day, for some reason, the Zhang family was tragically wiped out, that day the Zhang house was on fire, and when the fire receded, the entire Zhang house was only left with ashes of the house and a few charred corpses.
The reason why Tao Mei thought of this was because before this, Luoshen Town could be said to be really owned by the Zhang family, and it can even be said that Luoshen Town was the private property of the Zhang family, and after the tragedy, the mayor of the town was no longer fixed, until now.
Tao Mei shook her head slightly, stopped thinking like this, and after a while, she looked up and asked:
"Hadron, have you ever thought about what you should do if you were wrong at the beginning?"
When Li Qiang heard this, his eyes lowered slightly, and he said slowly:
"It doesn't matter if it's wrong, we can find another chance if we fail this time, but Wu Yu must not let it go. ”
"This is not just my personal grudge, those bandits are different from ordinary black organizations, they have no rules, they are a group of garbage to vent their animal desires!
"When Wu Yu colluded with them, his end was already doomed. ”
Li Qiang stopped speaking, and a cold light shone in his eyes at this time.
